Chapter 65: The Elven Might
Chapter 65: The Elven Might
Ingrid's elven queen's magic circle spread widely across the ice floor.
It was a vast floor with no end in sight, but Ingrid's mana outburst seemed like she resolved herself to fill the whole ice world with her forest.
It was not just her mana, though.
Every elf from her tribe added their own mana to her circle.
The queen didn't ask.
She ordered them!
And all elves complied gladly as their will to help master shone brightly within their eyes. Their hearts sped up with anticipation as they couldn't wait further to subjugate ice monsters for Minato!
The trees erected out of nowhere, extending their branches toward the ceiling. Many vines sprang free, turning into waves that swept through the ground! Anyone would easily get entangled in those!
Thick bushes also decorated the forest. Those would be primarily used to hide elves' attacks and most of their magic circles.
The sharp wind moved the forest, however.
That wind located all impending ice monsters!
Ingrid's eyes opened, and she asked, "Master. If you want, we can seize them all for you to absorb the hatred. What do you want?"
She also bowed, yet again bringing satisfaction to Minato's eyes as those melons dropped heavily.
Minato smiled, "That would be the best. However, won't it be too hard? You guys don't have to put too much burden."
That forest felt strong... Minato didn't really expect that might. He clearly felt its mana which was why a part of him believed Ingrid's words.
She wasn't flaunting or anything.
However, Minato didn't want any casualties.
That was why he asked.
Ingrid raised her upper body and smiled, "We will catch them all for you, Master."
The forest shook after the elven queen's declaration.
The sharp wind found impending enemies, pinpointing their location to Ingrid and her people.
Once those appeared in their eyes, the veins rose and caught all enemies in a quick and swift movement.
The ice beasts couldn't avoid those branches, even by jumping and flying in the forest!
The branches extended then... Their forms flashed with greenish mana, then their forms landed on all ice beasts, lowering their defenses and inflicting severe damage.
Those branches brought slap after slap, and the whole floor shook with its sound!
Elves behind the queen didn't stay idle either!
A part of them grasped fallen leaves, then rolled them up. They brought leaves in such a form close to their lips, then blew their sweet breath into it.
A unique sound boomed in the vicinity.
That sounded pleasant to Minato and his beloved ears. They all listened to while staring at the elven's might.
However, the ice beasts recorded a different sound.
A sound that crawled its way toward their souls! From within, the beasts heard and felt something scratching their souls. It was like the sharp claws of a forest monster slid down across their skin, flesh, bones, and souls!
That movement repeated a thousand times within the ears of those ice beasts.
Other elves took out their weapons.
It was primarily a bow.
A wooden bow flashed with magic circles. Those circles lined up before the weapon, then elves equipped wooden arrows with leaves wrapped around its tips. Once those arrows tore through the air, a similar sound rang out within the ice beasts' ears.
Those arrows took down all floating ice monsters!
Some elves fished out wooden knives. Using the vines as their foothold, they climbed up the trees and pounced at ice beasts who had just joined the fray!
Minato gawked, "It's a little awkward, isn't it?"
He said he would be very angry should anyone die... Now, Minato stared at the one-sided battering that indeed turned his words awkward.
However, all elves felt treasured and respected. Thus, their performance was beyond what they had ever done!
"I am lucky to have them as my first dungeon race. A jackpot, even," Minato rubbed his nose, then strutted forward.
A white wolf lifted her head up, flaunting her choice of 'low world'. Even though this world looked the most unique in her eyes, any other individual would probably have a different thought.
That was why Bei took the whole credit for choosing this world, and she often flaunted it to Minato and Yuna.
Indeed. If not for Bei's instincts, Yuna probably would've chosen a different world!
"Yes, it's your credit. Calm down now," Yuna brought her paw to Bei's head, then lowered it.
At that time, Minato had already gone through a few elves and ice beasts.
Ingrid was behind him, but she remained silent due to her active magic circle.
Minato conjured a box out of his circles, then put his Evil Seed within it. He then activated [Transfer] and all ice existences shook. Their eyes widened in disbelief, then hatred openly flashed with its killing intent.
To no avail.
The elves held those beasts tightly, and Minato's transfer was merciless.
A lot of black-red streaks darted toward Minato's box.
He smiled at it and stood like an Overlord while all elves actively jumped around to bring down more beasts.
-
"My instincts didn't lie to me... That man can actually absorb the hatred," A man deemed the Overlord Enemy whispered in disbelief as he stared at the events developing on the first floor.
His other buddies nodded, their eyes flashing with the same shock.
Only one of them was different, and he sighed, "So, we will become the stepping stone for that kind of existence."
"What do you mean?" His buddy asked.
"Nothing," he shook his head and stood up, "We thought we would be able to avenge our lost comrades in a low world. It turns out we will join them soon."
"Hey! Tell us what you know!" The buddies stood up and circled their friend.
That man smiled, "What could I possibly know? We used to be just soldiers for an Overlord. That alone is a status worthy of respect across the whole universe... We have seen many people of the same status and their masters... Out of all those Overlords, who possessed the world without any hatred?"
"No one..." His buddies understood.
No Overlord or their descendants had the world without the hatred within. Their Overlord Pillars reeked off with that energy, and it was frankly disgusting.
"Let's die with our heads high," The man said, then turned his eyes to the Frost Dwarves.
