Chapter 905 – Other World Dungeon

“These crazy bastards brought an army.”

Looking at it, the young elves had brought a medium-to-large army.

All of them were wearing leather-type armor that was judged to emphasize mobility, but all of them were light green and green on the outer surface of the armor. And I was a little surprised by the professional camouflage pattern mixed with a bit of brown.

Do you know the concept of gastrointestinal clothing?

Even the costumes were all uniform, so it seemed like you might not really notice them in the forest.

Even that was not enough, so she had things like grass and branches with leaves attached to her shoulders. These bastards know how to cover this up to the shoulder line.

One hundred percent insane, this.

In addition, he was wearing a helmet carved out of a tree, and the outer surface of the helmet, where the bark was still alive, had small grasses and leaves growing on it, so it was just a natural camouflage.

These fucking racist bastards must have had a surprisingly good idea about the battle. As expected of an army organized by those who live in the forest, the camouflage is tough.

The long blonde hair was also somehow well hidden.

Last time, the punks I gave to just wore comfortable-looking armor and just let their hair hang down, but that was a kind of active wear, and that seemed like a real combat uniform.

“What about a bastard?”

Winia, who was standing next to me, looked up at me and said,

“Why.”
“You’re here to catch a bastard.”

This.

“I didn’t know you would bring your friends.”
“Then, after you’ve beaten the kids like that, bring your friends.”
“It’s okay. Who among those bastards can catch me?”
“But.”

These fuckers, even if this is nonsense, you have to work hard to be able to see it as aegyo. What do you think you’ll be able to do with only a company of troops?

This is man’s land.
I am a Paladin of the Brass Castle Angel Society.

Elves can’t do anything.

“But what… It feels like a real tree has been erected. Is it the elves’ formal armor?”

Liz sister asked, but I didn’t know too much about it. I was about to say something, but Karin replied.

“Well, that’s how it is. They say elves wear armor like that. They say they paint it on purpose to camouflage themselves in the forest.”
“You know?”
“It’s just a story I’ve heard. It’s probably something worn only around the Elven Forest.”

Karin was from the Knights of the Kingdom, so she was very knowledgeable about her basic military knowledge.

“Nuna. But can I come in like this?”
“There’s no way he’ll openly come in, and he probably came in because he’s finished talking. No matter how hard he tries to leave, he can’t just come in.”

That’s right.

“Isn’t it just a few days ago that my husband fantasized about those bastards? I’m sure he already talked to the bastards somewhere.”
“Ah.”

But.

It’s been several days since then.

The knights would have talked about agreements and treaties, but they wouldn’t have come to tell me the story. After that day, we would have settled separately and met and talked.

But it’s a bit far from the capital. Has the order already come down from the top? Not. There might be a branch of the Knights Templar somewhere in the middle, not the capital… But the person in charge here was the Knight General, or regimental commander.

Except for Master Knight, there is no one who can give this person a specific order. That means that the upper line is that Master Knight.

I roughly asked Karin about this, and she said she didn’t know.

“Well… But I think you probably ended the story in the form of reinforcements. Maybe not.”
“It’s a reinforcement…”

Because the cause itself is sufficient.

If it’s in the form of reinforcements, well.

Anyway, before entering the palace, we took a look at the regular elves lined up on the other side. Of course, we weren’t the only onlookers. It was a rather miraculous sight, so everyone around seemed to have come out to see it.

The elven warriors currently lined up were just standing there immobile, and in front of them, the entity that appeared to be the commander was talking with the officers of the Knights of the Kingdom.

“But those bastards seem to have quite a bit of capability, don’t they?”

Karin, who had been observing her all along, said that.

“I can see it.”

Certainly… Strong. More than anything, those bastards I knocked out were also quite talented and had a fucking strong body. It’s just that I was so fucking strong.

In any case, it is better to avoid disputes with the elves, but last time those bastards crossed the line first. It is an unavoidable conflict. No matter what warnings anyone gives me, I will be cut to pieces if something like that happens again.

“But when we fought, we were fed up.”
“Kyahehe, look at this bastard’s confidence. Yeah, well. He’s gotten a lot stronger.”
“So I’m not worried. Those who are weaker than me did something that deserves to be beaten. But noona. If they say shit, let’s smash it together.”

Karin smiled and nodded her head.

“In fact, fighting in the Kingdom itself is not a big problem.”

Then he spoke to her while touching her lips.

“But if you go into their forest with a grudge against them, you’ll be damned.”
“To the Elven Forest?”
“Elf cubs are all experts in forest or jungle guerrilla warfare. If we invade their forest, even the well-prepared knights of the kingdom won’t be able to compete.”

When I said that, Liz’s sister covered her mouth with her with her hand with her.

“Oh my, is that enough?”
“It’s a jideul area, but of course you can eat and go in.”

Originally, even a dog goes in after eating half of his house in Nawabari.

Certainly… They are elves who live their entire lives in such a dense forest. Since the army’s basic tactic is to use terrain features, inevitably, elves have no choice but to become experts in jungle guerrillas.

And since the fighting power of each individual is considerable, they are probably more specialized than the Viet Cong. Even if it wasn’t for the physical strength due to silky mana, the elves’ physical abilities were good.

“This is a story I heard when I was in the Knights.”

Karin looked back at her as if to make up for Liz’s sister’s question, she said.

“What do elves have to say with humans? Brain structure that remembers? They say that it’s slightly different, so they never get lost in the forest. They say that once they see a forest, they just memorize it like a human memorizes the road .”

Five.

“It’s probably the right story.”

Cloudy said.

“Miss Cloudy?”
“Even dark elves don’t get lost in the desert. That’s why elves won’t get lost in the forest either.”
“That’s a story I’ve never heard of before.”

Cloudy simply told me that Dark Elves do not get lost in the desert. He added that, of course, he himself is a half-elf, so he doesn’t have that kind of ability, and he just memorized it as a kang.

Karin, who had heard the story, nodded her head and told me.

“Anyway, back to the story. What do you mean by not getting lost in the woods?”
“You just remember the forest?”
“That’s right. And that Elven Forest is the densest forest in the world. Humans can’t remember the way there. Hasn’t there been any humans who have properly entered the Elven Forest in the first place?”

It seems that no human has ever entered the Elven Forest. Well, of course there must be someone who has been to the outskirts of the Elven Forest. What is meant here is the deepest part. After all, humans have never been to the depths of the depths, so they don’t know the roads or terrain. In fact, no matter how many times you’ve been there, it would be impossible to memorize that vast forest road.

“But the elves remember everything because they’re in the master bedroom of their house. Do you fight guerrilla warfare with them? You can’t win, that’s it.”

Karin shook her head.

This is a geography problem.

No matter how strong the fighting power of an individual human being is, it is not possible to ignore the influence of the terrain 100%.

Inside the vast forests of the Elven Forest, the elves, who are professional guerrillas and trained soldiers, possess knight-level fighting power, and cannot be defeated.

“And what… Elves should have a decent population too. Isn’t Elven Forest bigger than Karga Kingdom in the first place?”
“Yes.”
“Yeah… That’s right.”

At that, everyone nodded.

Uh, I thought it was fucking big, but was it that fucking big?

“Of course, since it’s a fucking jungle and forest, the land for elves to live in isn’t that vast, but in the first place, the monster domestication technology and agricultural technology are one step higher for the elves, so the population itself won’t be much lower.”

Nothing is known about the exact population of elves. They live most of their lives deep inside the vast Elven Forest. Not many come out.

I don’t know what they do for a living in it, but clearing technology and agricultural technology are above humans. Productivity was good, and then the number of people would not have made a big difference.

Actually it is.

If the elves were not a force like this, they would have perished in a war with humans long ago.

“And a long time ago, a treaty was signed to ban military training near the border that assumed combat with humans, but it’s unlikely that such training will be conducted deep in the forest.”

Karin’s military common sense continued.

“Of course, if they had heads, they would be training assuming they would fight the human allies. In the first place, the Elven Forest itself is surrounded by human kingdoms, so we can’t do it. Even if we go beyond the Mercudia kingdom right now, there are many lesser kingdoms, and that’s why They’re all bordering the Elven Forest.”
“Five…”
“But it’s not something that can be inspected in the kingdom, right?”

As a person who fights based on skin color, gender, age, and origin, there are a lot of people who feel sorry for the elves.

Perhaps the elves, who are experts in the forest guerrillas and have honored the art of killing all their lives, must be training deep inside the secret forest to break treaties and fight the human allies.

Anyway, for various reasons, humans and elves are maintaining a non-aggression pact. Honestly, even the elves wouldn’t be able to guarantee victory by launching an all-out war against the humans, and no kingdom would want to go to war with the elves.

“Hmm… But I think elves are strong against poison.”

Ari, who had been listening to the story all along, said.

“It’s only natural that they live in the forest. I wonder if their weakness is fire… From what I’ve heard, there are rumors that elves are friendly with water spirits.”
“These are completely inhuman bastards!!! Being friendly with spirits who are enemies of mankind!!!”

Hilde was shocked.

“It’s just a rumor, so don’t get too excited.”

Still, if it doesn’t go through fire, you can literally call it a natural fortress. Unless you’re hitting napalm, there’s no countermeasure.

“By the way, Elven Forestra…”
“Why. Are you curious about that?”

After all, it seems that she can’t turn off her interest in her in the big forest because she’s Alaune.

“No. I’m not very interested in it. It’s a forest with an owner in the first place.”
“You are the owner of the forest, Ari.”
“That’s true, but they’re elves.”

Does that matter?
It’s Alaune.

“For beings who live in a place like that… They probably have some kind of countermeasures against the Alaune. And even an Allaune can’t face the entire army of a race alone.”
“Ah.”

Is it.

Come to think of it, it was.

Right now Ari seemed to be thinking about that while watching Elven Forest.

Alauune is a legendary monster, but it exists like this. Don’t the elves know this? I think you know. Because there should be a record. So, as far as you know, you must have made preparations to avoid losing your place of living.

“But Karin-sister? I wondered something while listening to the story, then why do such strong elves suffer from mere slave traders?”
“A mere slave trader?”

At Winia’s question, Karin tilted her head.

“Can I just say that? The illegal elven slave traders in the border area are difficult even for the Knights of the Kingdom to touch.”
“Yes?”
“What?”
“Really?”

Karin’s words of her were surprising, but to some extent she was expecting them. Babies of elves aren’t crappy bastards, they’re fucking tough guys, so there’s no way the guys who kidnap and sell them can’t be normal.

“Because it makes money. It’s only natural that such strong people are gathered.”

Above all else, the black market of elven slaves makes ‘a lot of money’, she says.

Of course, there is no choice but to gather murderous talented people to aim for that interest.

“War experts as good as the Knights of the Kingdom, and masters of guerrilla warfare as good as the elves, jump into that industry. Why? Because it makes money. Ah, but that’s all I know. I did. I don’t know the details.”

Karin’s calm explanation continued.

“You’d have to pour in your troops to catch it, but the knights didn’t do that out of pride, so how could they have signed a treaty by simply delegating it to the elves?”

Persuasive.

Anyway, we watched the elven army while talking about it. After watching it, it was time to finish talking and move to enter the palace.

“Ah, you’re here! It’s an honor to meet you, paladin!”

Isn’t that what kind of article is running in a hurry?

“Oh, nice to meet you. Excuse me, but who are you?”
“Call the knight Selterman.”
“I see. But what happened?”
“Hey, I’m sorry to ask you this, but could you please accompany me for a moment?”

This baby.

“I’ll listen to the reason and decide.”
“That’s… You know the army of elves came. But the commander of the elves said he wanted to see Lord Paladin and asked for a meeting.”

The elven commander wants to see me?
