Chapter 163: Curse
Chapter 163: Curse
Alternative title – Booba Elf
Seeing the elves’ village, Rory’s eyes brightened and she couldn’t help but yelp in surprise. “Ah! Is this perhaps the legendary elves’ village?! This is the first time I saw an elf! Much less seeing a village that is filled with them!’
Now, she finally understood why Kyle wanted to go deeper in this huge forest, it was to meet these elves! While she was admiring the sights of the elven village, Hilda spoke.
“To think there is another village or elves other than ‘that’ place.”
Hearing that, Kyle couldn’t help but be interested and said. “Oh? There another village of elves somewhere?”
“Yes, I thought it was the only elven village left in the world, but it seems that I am wrong. The world is truly unpredictable, still who would have thought that the elves who once ruled the world thousands of years ago would be reduced from this state, they almost went extinct because of that catastrophe.” Hilda couldn’t help but shake her head, though she wasn’t born at that time, the records remained.
Kyle keeps silent while thinking. ‘That catastrophe…I wonder what it was.’
Suddenly, he stared at the huge forest tree right beside him and spoke. “It’s better if you guys come out by yourselves since I don’t want to use violence you see.”
Hearing his words, Rory and Hilda became cautious from the entire week that he was with them, they knew that he wouldn’t just say random nonsense.’
A minute later, no one came out, and Kyle sighs and says. “If that is how you play, then you leave me no choice.”
Then he started to cast a wide range of a magic spell, it was a spell that would make everything freeze within a mile radius, sensing the danger the people that are hiding from behind the trees come out one by one, and the leader of the group quickly spoke,
“Wait! Please calm your anger, God!” The elf who said that had the appearance of a beautiful human male, in his early 20’s.
If you wonder how he knew that it was male, he simply saw the elf Adam’s apple, and the other elves had similar beautiful faces like the elf who just spoke. No matter how much he saw these elves, he felt inferior to them, he thought. ‘Damn, that long blonde hair, beautiful face, why am I not elf?!’
Though, he was just half-serious when he said that, while elves could enjoy a long life and beautiful appearance, humans also had their good points.
“I’m not angry if I was, do you think that you guys would still be standing here?” After he said that, the elves became silent, then he added.
“Look, I’m not threatening you okay? I just wanted to visit your village, I swear that I won’t do any harm.”
Then the elf leader hesitated, not because he doesn’t trust Kyle’s words, but because of Emroy’s apostles, Rory and Hilda to be exact they couldn’t trust them especially when they could see and feel that evil aura around their bodies.
Kyle noticed this and said. “About them, you don’t have to worry If they ever make trouble, I’ll deal with them.”
After hearing that, the elf leader could finally sigh in relief and replied. “Alright then, please follow us to our village.”
Hilda snorted at the elves, they were treating them like some sort of dangerous beast or something, so she was a bit offended by it, but Rory didn’t seem to mind but in reality, she was clueless that they were just treated as some sort of uncontrollable monsters.
Then, they followed the elves to their village, as they stepped afoot at the village all of the elves from young to old were looking at them, but to be specific they were looking at Kyle whose divinity was shining.
The elves were looking at him like he was some rare breed of animal, though knows that they meant no harm by looking at him, so he let them be, then a few minutes later they arrived at a treehouse that was a lot bigger than the rest.
He thought. ‘This is probably the village chief house of something.’
Then the elf leader suddenly said, “God, please wait here for a moment, I have to announce your arrival to our village chief.”
As Kyle was about to say yes, an old woman’s voice was heard from inside the house.
“You don’t need to announce God’s arrival, please do come into my humble house.”
The elf leader looked at him and bowed. “Please.”
He nodded slightly, then all of them went inside the chief’s house.
—
Inside the house, is what is exactly he imagined, the furniture and designs, it was made all from trees and plants, while he was looking around, a female elf that had a similar appearance of a human woman in her late 40′, but way more beautiful than any other human approached him and bowed.
“I finally got to meet you Kyle-sama, the future God of our race.”
Hearing that, everyone’s eyes widened especially the elves, did their chief say their future God?! Isn’t their God the world tree?!
Kyle stayed calm outside, but inside he was surprised he didn’t expect this elf to know that he was the God of their descendants, then he said.
“You know?”
“Yes, Kyle-sama I have the ability to know the future so that’s why I know.”
Hearing that, it made sense why she knew but does she also know that he isn’t from this world? He decided to ask. “Do you know where I came from?”
“Yes, it’s in a place called Japan right?”
This was a bit terrifying, he thought. ‘Does she know everything about me?”
“What else do you know about me?”
She shook her head and replied. “It’s the only thing, I know of forgive me,”
He sighs in relief knowing that she doesn’t know his secrets, then he said. “No, It’s fine.”
Then, he noticed a little girl hiding in the corner, staring at him with curiosity. The chief followed his gaze and she saw that he was looking at her granddaughter, she sighed and called her. “Miya, come over here.”
Miya panicked, but she followed her grandmother’s order, she slowly approached them, then the chief said. “Miya, you have to show some respect to our God, bow.”
The little elf loli bowed clumsily, seeing her clumsy action her grandmother couldn’t help but sigh helplessly, while Kyle chuckled at this child’s cuteness, then he noticed something very different from her than the rest of her kind, he said.
“Why is her hair black?”
From what he knew, there shouldn’t be an elf that has a color black hair, their hair should be green, white, or blonde but never black, then the chief sigh sadly and replied. “It’s a curse.”
“A curse?”
“Yes, it started a few thousand years ago and at that time the elves were all over the world, since it was an era where the elves dominated this world, this curse just came out of nowhere and started infecting the young elves, as they were infected by this curse their hair will turn black, and their lifespan would end before they reach 20 because this curse is the reason why there are only a few elves are left.”
“You still haven’t found a cure yet?”
The chief felt regret and said. “We did but the resources that we need are so rare that some of the ingredients needed a thousand years to make, but unlike a few thousand years ago, the curse infection was lesser that is why our race didn’t go completely extinct.”
Kyle went silent, then he stared at Miya, to humans 20 years might be long enough to get married, it wasn’t the same for elves, 20 years old is compared to a 5-7 years old kid, the elves growth rate are slower compared to humans, that’s why the curse made them almost extinct because they couldn’t reproduce.
After pondering for a while, he said. “I’m not completely sure but, I think I can cure this curse.”
The chief’s eyes widened, and she immediately bowed to the floor and exclaimed.
“PLEASE! IF YOU CAN! SAVE MY GRANDDAUGHTER! I’LL DO ANYTHING YOU WANT!”
