Chapter 40 – 40. Conversion Ratio (4)

“Excuse me, wanderer. Could you lend me some light for a moment?”

It is a specialty of elves to refer to those walking in the forest as wanderers.

Wandering

This is their way of criticizing us as wandering idiots who wander in a forest we know intimately, and of course, their way of belittling and criticizing other races by saying that there is no one who can roam smoothly in this forest other than themselves.

It’s a sense of superiority typical of unlucky people.

Since they have the ability to manipulate the forest as they please, it is easy to make it easier for people to move around, and there are many cases of attacking or turning into slaves those who get lost in the forest.

As soon as that Kampf bitch saw me, she put a slave leash on me.

Reference to dark elves.

Naturally, the dark elves are a race that originally lived as slaves of the elves in Elven Haim, and their leader, ‘Carnetia – Dark Hand’, escaped with his compatriots and fled to the demon world.

And in the meantime, there is a story about how many Elven Haim world trees were seriously injured, and even the guardian warriors were cut off and their heads were hung on the world trees.

It’s a story that happened just 100 years ago, and even though I went to the Demon World, I’ve never encountered dark elves in the Demon World before.

To be honest, it was amazing, and Kampf was threatening to make her a slave again as soon as he saw her, but now that I think about it, it would have been better if that bitch had become a slave, Dark Elves would never have become slaves.

It was so incompetent that it seemed like it was the Elder God’s plan to intentionally discourage the party.

Elves with green hair and gold hair, elf men covered in green robes and various bushes.

Other than that, there are just a lot of elf women.

From what I heard, the male to female ratio is 1:9.

They say men are 1 and women are 9, and of course men are more powerful.

To be honest, this Canf is…

Well.

Even though he was bluffing, he was stronger than Alicia, at least he was not stronger than Alicia. Of course, that’s the case, but there’s one reason why you can’t see an elf in the forest.

Their clothing is a camouflage to hide themselves in the forest, and once they catch an elf who has entered the forest, they cannot sleep in the forest or even be allowed to rest.

So, elves are the strongest in the forest!

This logic is often played out.

Well, that is true to some extent.

And in addition to the 10 people who showed up here, about 20 people were surrounding the area, leaving no stone unturned. This was a normal situation, and it was a situation in which most people would be in trouble or even die.

The way they make a living in this forest is by extorting lost parties or merchants in the forest in the name of ‘guidance’.

What if I refuse?

Well…

How can you endure it when the elves are openly interfering and disrupting you?

Of course, the road is blocked, and you have to take a detour and go round and round, and then show up when everyone is dying and get directions again in a rude way? The notoriety of the elves who split while doing this is truly famous.

Of course, in this forest, elves are truly a nuisance.

Most people say they put up with it because it’s dirty, and they even blatantly say that there is an elf guide stationed at the entrance to the forest, and even before entering here, he blatantly blocked the road, but when Dick tried to push him away, he hurriedly slapped him, which was quite funny.

Do you think you can get out of this forest without our help?

This lower race!

It’s like walking around like this.

That is the nature of these forest elves.

However, the characteristic of these people is that because of their arrogance, they pick on things that should not be touched and end up getting hit.

Of course, it is true that they are strong.

Of course, that’s why we deal with elves in this forest, and since they are elves who borrowed the power of the World Tree in the past to break the rule of dragons, how little do they regard other races?

The reign of dragons in the past.

When the Draconian Empire was spreading, it was the elves who chased the dragons to the southern islands, and it is their proud history.

Of course, it’s a problem because they have been proud that they defeated the dragon clan for a thousand years.

Of course, it is not true at all that they are untouchable.

Nowadays, there is no such thing as a true punching bag.

If we look at past history, it is like this.

In the great forests located from Byzantine to eastern Frisia, for elves, the forest is all our territory! He once provoked Phrygia in this way, but about 200 years ago, when the Phrygian emperor Alcaides continued to plunder and kidnap slaves in Phrygia, he got so angry that he pushed his way to Elvenheim.

Naturally, Alkeides the Great was a being of the blood of God, and the elves were dying due to his strength and might, and in an unprecedented situation that reached Elvenheim, the ruler of Elvenheim, the Elvenguard clan, managed to kill all the instigators. For about 30 years after cutting off the head and offering it up, Elvenheim sent tribute to Frisia.

Of course, when Emperor Alkay Death died while fighting on the side of the gods in a battle called ‘Giganto Machia’, they shut his mouth and confiscated his face as if they had never done so.

“We don’t lend fire to ignorant people.”

Of course, I smile and say this to the elf ranger leader who approaches me with a smile. Of course, I know the seeds won’t work.

It’s surrounding the surrounding area with an open air of murder, and it’s also getting ready to stab at any moment.

Isn’t it strange that you don’t know that?

“Don’t do that, Wanderer, can we talk for a moment? My name is Robin…”

Of course, regardless, they just came to their seats and tried to sit down, and since it was clear what they were going to do anyway, I threw the hammer right where they were going to sit.

And that too, with the brilliant sunlight.

Kwaaaaa!!!

With an explosion of light, the elf ranger leader, who was about to sit down, falls back.

I suddenly ended up not being able to eat all of the dishes I had prepared, but it was almost a luxury to worry about that in a situation where it was clear that shit was going to happen anyway.

The rest of the elves have already taken out their weapons and are beginning to show that they have surrounded this place by raising their arrows as if they were waiting.

Tsk.

I should have just shot.

“I would have told you. I wouldn’t lend you the fire.”

“…As I heard, you are an arrogant bastard, Geumtaeyang.”

And immediately, he put aside his previous smiling face and growled fiercely at me with a very distorted face. Naturally, I already knew the disgusting faces of these pretentious bastards through ‘Alicia’, so I knew their habits like the palm of my hand. .

No, in the first place, I also saw the Kanfs who came to exchange magic, and they were all arrogant and annoying idiots just like Alicia.

The only thing I expected from Alicia was that her ruling class would be something different, but I never dreamed that the heir to rule, an Elven Guard, would openly try to put a leash on me.

It was absurd, and they said they would make me a slave.

The thing about licking your toes.

And I realized that this was an idiot that there was no way to save me, so I decided to let him escape from this world.

If only Gawain wasn’t such a good person.

“Oh, do you know about me, you idiot? Do you even want an autograph? Since I don’t accept fan meetings or sasaeng fans, how about you just quietly disappear into the forest?”

“Are you a stupid human so you don’t know? This great forest is the land of the elves. Did you think you would just sit back and watch as the humans wander in and out as they please? In addition, I have come to punish you for what you did to Princess Alicia and the evil you committed at the warrior party. Obediently stick out your neck. La!”

This really feels weird hearing it so openly and confidently.

I listen to them because their chatter is fun, but the way they subtly assert their superiority and that they are the real rulers of this place is starting to get annoying.

Each country has its own borders.

Naturally, a buffer zone between countries is always necessary.

If they start to get closer, friction will arise regardless of whether we like it or not, so we intentionally leave this forest alone without doing anything, but of course we only leave it that way when there is no benefit to it. If something falls, the Phrygians, Byzantines, and Uruks will rush to take it.

So, the Canps next to the Byzantines had no choice but to enter their base.

Right now, the strongest person in Elcadia is Gilgamesh, and I swear to you, I can never picture those Kanfs winning against Gilgamesh.

Well, anyway…

“Die, Golden Sun. You will die in this forest, for the just cause of Elvenheim.”

As a side note, my sister also passed through this great forest.

That is to say, this great forest is connected to Gehenna.

For witches who like to be secret, there is no better place to hide than a forest, and if you want to hide a tree, you should hide in the forest.

I really had a hard time finding it because of the fantastic location selection that made difficult-to-find places even more difficult to find.

And because it’s closer to Phrygia, I prefer to first set up a position in Phrygia and then head to Gehenna. No matter how much of a mess they make in Phrygia, it’s still better than what these Kanph bastards do.

Please don’t get me wrong, just because I’m saying it’s less popular doesn’t mean it’s not as good.

In the end, it’s clear that both sides are bastards who will feel better if they break their heads.

And my sister said.

The elves in the great forest were being mean to me, so I released one ‘lamb’ and they all ran away.

And her older sister is behind her and comes in front of her, slightly lifting the wide-brimmed witch hat she was wearing and showing her face. And as soon as she does that, the elf ranger captain, who reveals his name as Robin, is immediately shocked.

“Look at the things that didn’t stop me when I was passing by, but when they see my little brother passing, they start running at me like crazy. I released a few lambs to play with them, but I guess you guys still haven’t come to your senses?”

And the older sister spoke to the elf. Of course, one way or another, no one answers.

My sister said.

It is said that a single lamb can annihilate a fairly small city, and of course, it is a powerful being that only a magician like me can completely destroy.

And soon after, the elves became excited when they saw her older sister’s face.

I don’t know, but I think my sister completely smashed it when she passed by here.

So, even if you just see their face like that, they look scared.

“Ah, so I’m going to keep my mouth shut because I’m at a disadvantage? I guess you guys didn’t know that I’m Clark’s older sister, right?”

“…Mummy, no- ‘Sheep Witch’. Wait. We don’t want to be against you.”

Another name for my older sister.

It is the ‘Sheep Witch’.

Well, considering that my older sister is a very fierce black goat and the mother of lambs, and that she also had contacts with other elf witches within Gehenna…

Ah.

Wait, there was an elf there too.

Should I dig into this more later?

Robin is visibly upset, and she tries to negotiate, hoping to somehow move on from the situation.

“Pretend you didn’t see it, Miss Yang’s witch. If there is any wealth you want, tell me.”

“Oh, really? It’s wealth, so how much can I give you? You’ll have to pay at least platinum or more.”

It seems like he was trying to get money if he could in return for his sister’s life.

“If you give it to me, can you go beyond killing the ‘Golden Sun’ right here and now? If so, prepare right now…”

“…”

Are you idiots?

Unfortunately, these were worse than expected.

That negotiation is a negotiation to turn a blind eye to killing me.

…

No matter how much humans don’t know the difference between wealth and love, they make the mistake of applying that to everyone.

Tsk.

And then my sister’s expression begins to distort in a bizarre way, and darkness begins to unfold. At the same time, those who quickly realized that they were being followed and tried to avoid them as soon as the older sister moved around here quickly tried to use the homing device to escape.

Of course it failed.

Perfect!

“…!!!”

“The return part can be broken by just a human’s magic. Koitsu~ Are you wondering if the magic can be broken by a kid who lived for hundreds of years and is now half-fifty years old?”

And with a single touch from my grasp, all the return spells are shattered and the return unit is broken. Along with the expression of being chased, their faces are distorted with anger at being provoked by humans, and despair at having been dragged into this hell.

Naturally, while darkness unfolds, Anna takes Lucy and Aris out.

“To the Room of Truth. I’m going to spend some time with you, so please take care of those two.”

“I hope you are safe. I will cook again and wait for you. This time, I will prepare it with the flavor you like.”

“Wasn’t it the same as before?”

“When hunting animals, you have to make the prey attractive.”

Anna laughs and laughs at these rangers.

You are beasts.

I’ve been running like a dog, but I can’t stand it when it smells delicious.

The same goes for me.

A total of 30 elf rangers were dragged into the deep darkness.

This is a place where even the forest where they can take cover as an obstacle cannot protect them.

My older sister was grinning in the thick darkness.

“Now~ This is my territory…And you are the scum that came into my territory…How should I cook you to kill them well…“

And then the older sister starts laughing strangely and summoning darkness. The lambs appear, and a “Meeeee” Sound is heard.

The sound of sheep bleating in the deep darkness.

Of course, amidst the bleating of the sheep, there was a being wearing a wolf mask.

This is Dick Johnson, the Hound of Tindalos.

“Wait a minute, I’m coming out to teach some skills to our Geum Taeyang~“

And Dick suddenly appeared out of nowhere, his hands filled with purple energy, and he was immediately showing me something.

At the same time…

Purple energy. And the purple energy began to spread like a thread, and immediately began to wrap around an elf, and Dick grabbed it and pulled it.

Suddenly-

Without even being able to scream, an elf ranger begins to fall to pieces as if he were literally cut to pieces by a sharp rope and died.

Dick showed it to me with indifferent eyes and said to me:

“Try to kill 10 or more people here with this.“

“Like this?”

And sure enough, I knew what it was.

When I asked how he knew, it felt like he was telling me in his head.

Dick’s method.

A line of magic that is spun out like a thread by spewing out magic power as it is and circulating magic power throughout the body without activating the magic circuit.

And pull it out…

Capture an elf ranger.

Even if you just look at the beautiful elves, if you catch them and make them slaves, you can easily get about 100 gold coins, but you don’t want to do that.

It’s not like money is tight, and if you catch these dirty things and sell them, you’ll get them in Elvenheim anyway.

In other words, the answer is to kill here.

And wrap around.

And pull.

Suddenly!

It was a little less sharp than what Dick did, but in the end, the elf caught by it was cut to pieces.

“If you’re doing it this way… So, is this how you’re doing it?”

Spews out more threads of magic.

While my sister summoned the lambs and stomped these bastards, I released a thread of magical power.

I tried to cut the thread of magic by swinging my sword and shortsword, but my magic, burning with the magic of the sun, was accompanied by cutting power and scorching heat.

And as soon as I was touched by those scorching magical powers, the elf’s magical energy was broken, and I grabbed more than 5 people at the same time and pulled them down.

Fussssshhhhh!!!

The pieces of meat vomiting blood cannot even scream and begin to fall into pieces and pile up on the floor, spraying blood.

The elf captain Robin tries to hold on somehow, but the bleating of sheep around him continues to eat away at his spirit, and although the line shining with sunlight illuminates this pitch-black darkness, it threatens to become a blade that will cut off their necks. Situation.

If you go into the darkness, you will be killed by a sheep, and if you turn towards the light, you will be cut to death there.

“Hey, are you imitating this as soon as you see this?“

At the same time as Dick expressed his admiration, the elf rangers were torn to pieces by sheep after they had killed more than 10 people as Dick had said.

The imposing presence he had before is already gone, and Robin immediately raises his hands and declares surrender.

“Ha, surrender!!! Please, please!! Please save me!!!!”

“You’re talking about chasing me, you crazy bastard.“

Naturally, my older sister, who was so angry, wouldn’t listen to it.

Of course…

“Wait a moment, sister.”

“Huh? Why?“

“Please.”

When I bowed my head and asked, the darkness that had been slowly creeping out of my sister entered my sister again, and although my sister didn’t seem to like it, at my request, she handed over the last remaining Robin to me instead of killing him.

Naturally, I wanted to do this.

It’s really about what this kid does.

“Do you want to live?”

Nod your head.

Robin, who looked like he was half out of his mind after seeing things he couldn’t handle, was nodding his head frantically, and I thought I’d test this.

What is it.

Something Alicia once said to me.

And I wanted to return it to the elves under my command.

“Do you see a lot of things set out here?”

“Tea, is it ready?”

“…It’s dinner time for the sheep. So, the ‘supper’ prepared here. That dinner…Would you like to hear it too?”

And I point to the black sheep waiting behind me.

The lambs were still crying because they were hungry, and they were fussing as they looked at the ‘food’ that was hesitating in front of them.

Meeeee-

“You better eat quickly. It doesn’t matter to me if you don’t eat, but it will matter to you.”

The crackling sound of the many muzzles of black lambs.

The sound of teeth chattering is heard. Only that sound was echoing in the darkness, and the light was also binding Robin’s body. The sound of teeth clashing can also be heard from Robin.

To Robin, who was faced with indescribable fear and his will was broken, I picked up the elf’s ear that had been cut into pieces from the floor and placed it in his mouth.

“Eat, eat~ I’m hungry.”

Licking those stinky feet vs. Eating what was your subordinate. Which one is more like it?

Well.

Whatever it is, I’m sure I don’t want to suffer.

“If I don’t eat it, will I die?”

When I said that, Robin went crazy and put the elf’s ear in his mouth. I cut off the ear and fed it to his mouth, and he started eating over and over again.

A total of 58 ears.

And…

“You need to eat your ears too, right?”

“Now, wait a minute!! This, this much, ah, no!!!”

“Okay.”

Suddenly!!

“Kwaaaaa!!”

In the empty darkness, the screams of an elf with his ear cut off echo.
