Chapter 934: Need some ores
Chapter 934: Need some ores
Half an hour later, all of the dark elves had been captured.
They had been no match for us in the past, so of course they were no match for us now.
The dark elves didn’t even know what was happening as they were suddenly descended on by the wyverns. When they realized where they were, they had been clutched in the talons of the wyverns and disarmed.
They couldn’t fight back at all as their hands and feet were tied up by the knight that was hanging on the claws of the wyverns.
So in no time at all, there were a bunch of tied up dark elves that were dropped on the ground.
The only reason it had taken half an hour was because there was one dark elf that had managed to escape.
It took half an hour to capture her since she ran quite fast.
It seemed that there was a reason why she had been able to escape from the claws of the wyverns.
But she was captured in the end since there was no way that she was able to outrun the claws of the wyverns. The wyverns were much faster and stronger than her, so it was only natural that she would be caught by them.
Once all of the dark elves were captured, we didn’t waste any time.
This was the last area where monsters gathered, so it was time to clear it out.
The dark elves were left with ten knights with wyverns to be watched over, though it would be hard for them to escape in the first place as they were completely tied up. It was hard for them to even break free, let alone escape from this place.
With the other wyverns, we easily cleared the area where the monsters gathered.
It was a bunch of ogres and one giant ogre that received the buff of the crystal.
But with the wyverns, we easily burned them down just like before.
When I obtained the crystal, I found that it was also the same, though this time there was this yellow thing inside of it.
The strange thing was that no matter which crystal it was, there was never any that had the same coloured thing inside of it. It was as if all of these things inside had to be a different colour from each other.
I didn’t think too much about it since there was something else that we needed to take care of. Once the crystal was obtained, I had the others pick up the dark elves and we headed back to the capital where the prime minister and regent were waiting for us.
It had been over a week now, so I was sure that they would be wondering where we were.
It was just too bad that this thought was wrong.
They didn’t seem to care at all that we were gone as they were focused on organizing the territory of the former Midra Kingdom.
The prime minister’s response when he saw us was…
“Oh, you’re back.”
There was a bitter smile that appeared on my face when I heard this from him, but I held that bitter feeling back.
After all, if one looked at it from a different angle, it was basically them saying that they had enough faith in us that we would handle this without a problem. That was why they hadn’t been worried about us at all.
“Yes, that has to be the reason.” I said as if I was trying to convince myself.
But there also wasn’t time to be bitter as there was something else that had to be done.
“You’ve found dark elves?” The prime minister asked in a surprised voice.
He was surprised since he didn’t think that we would be bringing them back, though he wasn’t surprised to hear that there were dark elves. It seemed like he had already expected this to be the case since there was a precedent.
The regent was surprised though since he had no idea what was happening.
Once it was explained to him, the regent had a deep look of thought on his face before asking, “So what do we do with them?”
The prime minister revealed a strange look when he heard this before slowly turning to look at me.
With the way that he looked at me, it was clear that there was some kind of implication.
I could guess what he was thinking, but I didn’t say anything. Instead, there was a look of
deep thought that was on my face as if I was considering something.
Seeing this, no one said a thing as I was just deep in my thoughts.
It was as if they were all waiting for me.
It was as if they had confidence that I would be able to think of a solution.
As for what I was thinking about…
“Since I have the Void Ores now, I should be able to make the new things. But it’ll take some time before they can be transported there and then there’s the matter of transporting them back…”
“No, since I’m the king, I should be able to be a bit willful. After all these are things that are needed to help my country.”
As this thought passed through my mind, I slowly came to a decision.
“Throw them in the dungeon for now.” I said all of a sudden.
Everyone seemed surprised to hear me say this, but I wasn’t finished yet.
“The Void Ore, I need a bunch of the Void Ore.”
They all looked at me with a strange look, but eventually the regent said, “Your majesty, what do you mean by that?”
“I mean get a bunch of the Void Ores for me, I’m going to bring it somewhere with the
wyverns.”
They looked at me with even more confused looks in the end, but I just simply said, “Trust me on this. I know what I’m doing.”
It took a while, but they eventually gathered the Void Ores for me and I headed off.
