Episode 210 [Elf in the Hidden Village 1]
We were preparing for a battle to rescue the Hidden Village, but we thought it would be too time-consuming to go now, so we decided to move tomorrow.
"But will it be okay until tomorrow? The Demon King's army has already attacked the elf village, right?"
"It's better not to criticize the people in the Hidden Village. The ones that have been attacked so far are probably the dummy villages. They are well prepared and solid."
I've done a lot of research on the elves and dwarves of the hidden village since I came to this world.
Well, even though I did a lot of research, it was only recently that I learned a lot about the Hidden Village from my master.
“Also, the dwarves are more well-prepared, and they said that even if they were chased underground, they could use their own hidden passages to escape, so I don’t have to worry about them that much since they aren’t the kind of people who can be defeated quickly. It’s okay without it.”
After saying that to Chloe and the others, I decided to get ready for today and get some rest.
The next day, we met up with Hanzo's subordinate elf from the hidden village.
"Nice to meet you, my name is Keel from the elf tribe. Thank you for taking the time to help my tribe."
The man, who was a little shorter than Hanzo at around 175 cm, greeted me with awe.
After exchanging greetings with Kiel, I looked over at Hanzo, who was there for some reason.
“...Hey, given your appearance, are you coming with me?”
"This is the first time this guy has offered to guide me to the hidden village, so there's no way I'd let an opportunity like this pass by, right? Besides, I can fight if I look like this."
"I'll protect Kiel-san, but you'll have to deal with Hanzo on your own."
That's what I said to Hanzo with an astonished look on my face, and with Kiel's guidance, we headed for the elf tribe's hidden village.
We headed for the hidden village closest to the last hidden village attacked by the Demon King's army, and as we approached our destination, we discovered that the forest had been destroyed.
"There's no doubt that you passed through here... Should we hurry?"
After that, we quickly accelerated and searched for the Demon King's army, and as we moved deeper into the forest, we heard the sounds of battle in the depths.
Chloe and Keel, who have good eyesight, reported at the same time that ``the elves and the Demon King's army are fighting.''
"Hanzo, which are you better at, magic or swords?"
"It's magic, are you going to put me in the back? You acted like you didn't know earlier, right?"
"It's better than being in the way, so Hanzo and Chloe will ask for our support."
"roger that"
Although Hanzo is also a person in a higher position, he agreed to follow me and support me with magic along with Chloe.
Then, as we continued onward, we saw dozens of elves surrounded by a large group of Demon King's troops.
The elves noticed us before the Demon King's army, and were on guard as they thought we were a new enemy.
However, the elves soon noticed Kiel's presence and let their guard down when he heard Kiel's words, "I came to help."
“Are you, by any chance, Kiel-sama!?”
After dispersing most of the Demon King's army and joining up with the elves, an elf in the group whose clothes were slightly different from those around him called out to Kiel.
Keel said to the elf, ``For now, concentrate on the battle,'' and we concentrated on fighting the Demon King's army, which was still large in number.
After about an hour, we finally subdued all of the demon king's army, gave the injured elf some recovery medicine, and decided to rest.
“Mr. Keel, you were being looked at very highly by the elves just now, but are you perhaps one of the great people among the elves?”
"...Well, that's right. To tell you the truth, I'm the son of an elf chief who lives in a hidden village. A little while ago, I had an argument with my father, so I ran away from home, and that's when I met Lord Hanzo."
When Keel said that, a female elf who was wearing different clothes among the group of people who were treating the injured spoke up.
“As expected, it’s Mr. Keel.”
"...Yeah, it's been a while since Roana. Have you been doing well?"
When Kiel called out to her, the woman hugged him with tears in her eyes.
Seeing this scene, Hanzo grinned and said, ``I guess he wasn't interested in women because he had a girlfriend.''
After that, we waited until the woman calmed down, and while we were waiting, we heard from the other elves about the current situation in the Hidden Village.
"I thought the Demon King's army had decreased in numbers recently due to being attacked by the Dragon Man Nation, but I guess they were moving personnel to attack the Hidden Village..."
“I had a vague idea that they were preparing something, but I didn’t expect that they were narrowing down their numbers to attack the Hidden Village…well, it’s certainly better than having to deal with the Dragon Nation in vain. It's easier to get items by attacking the people in the hidden village.''
While Hanzo and I were talking, the female elf called by Roana and Keel finally calmed down and joined the discussion.
“Roana, are your fathers still okay?”
"Yes, so far, the fake village we prepared in advance is being attacked, and there are no dead people at the moment. However, there are more Demon King's forces than I expected, and the warriors are becoming exhausted. ”
Well, the Demon King's army is large in number, so even if they are fighting in an advantageous situation, if they continue to fight for days on end, they will probably get tired.
“Um, so Mr. Kiel, I’ve been liking you for a while now, but what kind of relationship do these people have with you?”
The elf woman called Roana answered Keel's question, looked at us, and then asked.
"These are the people I called to help the village. These people have already fought against the Demon King's army many times and have won every battle."
When Kiel said that, Roana looked at us with a surprised look on her face and said, ``They're amazing people, aren't they?''
