Chapter 1922 High Elves Attack -Part 1

When Jin returned to the Dungeon Maker, Kraft was smiling at him as if he had done more than what the others would have done. "To think that you subdued the Red Cross Ape, making it your servant rather than using the System to do that. All for the impression to show that you are an expert."

"If the Red Cross Ape dies in one hit, the onlookers would not know how strong the ape is. They might have thought that the military was just incompetent in killing it. By allowing it to show its powers to a certain extent, the onlookers even those who were not of a high grade could see that this Red Cross Ape was a danger to them if not taken care of. The evacuation that the military had done was justified."

"Ah, and you allow the military to save face and in the mean time bring up the reputation of the Demon Exorcists as well."

"Well, Ma Ge did give us something good deal on the land even though he drove a hard bargain."

"It's more like the User drove a hard bargain to him." The System begged to differ.

"In any case, by doing this act of …'non violence', the Demon Exorcist organisation would sure to have some erm… extra points to their name. I am sure Ma Ge would appreciate it a fair bit." Jin replied.

"Anyways, the land would not be yours until a week later according to the paperwork. Xiong Da still needs to verify a few more documents with the Ministry of Land and you are good to go. That's Tinda's words and I decided to be the messenger for this."

"I have an aching feeling why you wanted to tell me directly about this issue," Jin said as he folded his arms.

"What? I'm a bearer of good news. What is so bad about that?"

"No, you want to see where that Red Cross Ape comes from, don't you?" Jin questioned and Kraft shrugged his shoulders.

"Why would I want to know where that Red Cross Ape originated? So what if it came outside of the borders and probably from Mongolia? They are no match to me and I do not see any benefits in looking out for their breeding ground." Kraft reasoned.

"Then why do you want to meet me? Is it because of the High Elves then?"

"Heh, you are not that dumb after all. Looks like you caught on fast."

"Lol, otherwise, you would have thrown me into some dark dimension and demanded me to reflect on my actions. Don't you think I know the drill by now?"

"I was merely testing my luck if I can do that." Kraft smiled as he moved away from the chair that belonged to Jin and even dusted the chair a little while graciously bowing a little to offer the chair back to him.

The moment Jin sat down, holograms and pictures of the High Elves were being taken in high resolution for some reason. There was even one that had a picture of the High Elves' nostrils while the soldier was sleeping and Jin suspected that the Night Foxes were the ones who did that to show that the High Elves had their guard lowered so much that they could not even notice their presence.

It also showed the will and determination of the Night Foxes to resist the urge to kill those High Elves even though they could do that right there and then. But at the same time, Jin was curious.

"If the Night Foxes could infiltrate them, why did you not send an all out assault against them? I still do not understand why you want them to destroy the New Adventurer's Town although I am all for it too."

"I did say that by allowing the New Adventurer's Town, it will renew the anger among the Goblins, Orcs, and humans, did I not?" Kraft reiterated and was a little annoyed that Jin could not follow his reasons.

"Yes, you did but those three races already had animosity against the High Elves, do they not? If you ask them to fight against the High Elves, they would do so willingly alongside the Night Foxes. They knew that they now might have a chance to win against them, especially with the Night Foxes by their side."

"But I want to know where they are staying. That's the mystery that the other races could not find out. If we attack this expedition, it will end there and then. Sure, the sighting of other High Elves might arise but they would be so geared for war, it would not be fun at all. I rather ambush them and see them cry. For this, even the Night Foxes can agree with me on that."

"So, you really want to sacrifice an entire town so that you can ambush them?"

"Yes. I am not giving way on that at all. I owe the Night Foxes this for all the shiftwork they had done for me." Kraft replied.

"Wow, this is the first time I hear you say something so responsible." Jin was amazed, surprised, and maybe even in awe that Kraft said such honourable things.

"I might force my workers to work overtime and at times to the bone, but I will always grant their wish. They had been waiting for this a very long time and I would not give any quarters to anything or anyone. Even if it means to burn down the entire town and lose some people in the process, I will do that for my Night Foxes." Kraft said with a resolute tone.

"Fine. I will allow that. System, how much loss are we expecting from the destruction of the New Adventurer's Town?"

"Enough to pay for your land in terms of Dungeon Dollars. That's its current valuation that the System had determined. It might not be indicative of the value that it had racked up throughout the months. The growth had been exponential and to burn it down the ground means the System and User have to spend resources to rebuild it."

"Can we liquidate certain items or at least move out a few things before the High Elves' arrival? Even if we cannot save people, saving the goods should allow some monetary relief." Jin asked and the System had stated that it would mobilise the goblins and Orcs to do a sweep a day prior.

"Be quick about it, from the map, it looked like they might be coming in about a few days' time."

"Hmm… actually on second thought, don't remove everything." Kraft suddenly cracked a smile. "They had been going through quite a few detours and while they had been rather obedient to their superiors, it was pretty obvious that they were at the breaking point due to resources."

"What do you mean?"

"There might be a chance that they might want to raid the New Adventurer's Town a little to get the resources, take a few hostages to show that they were serious. And once they have their fill of raiding then they will start destroying the place.

"Eh? So we have to put up an act with them? I am not sure if our own Goblins and Orcs are up for it."

"Come on, they should be able to. The monsters had been in dungeon instances for so long that they needed to limit their strength to fight against newbie cultivators. This is practically the same thing. Just put up a neat little show along so that they would get killed by the High Elves. In return, I promise they can be part of the ambush against the High Elves' kingdom. Though, it's a slight pity that you do not allow usual 'pillaging' protocols." Kraft mumbled his last line and Jin heard it loud and clear since he did not have the intention to hide his comments, just being more conscious since his 'master' was around.

"Alright, if that's the case then you are paying those monsters the System points needed for those who were killed in that act of yours." Jin finally agreed to it even though Kraft did mention this to him before about this plan.

"To make it more sweeter, let's put some mild laxatives to the food as well. And also make some of the coins wither into ash when they touch it. Oh, the faces on them would be such a delight to the Night Foxes." Kraft grinned when Jin knew that all of these mischiefs were also for him to partake on.

Thus, the operation to trick the High Elves had already started with the outer layer of the New Adventurer's Town to be evacuated and placed in Jin's temporary dimensional instances until the raid was over. Jin's Orcs and Goblins who heard of the plan started to populate those areas and prepare to act as meek as they could even though Jin did say some retaliation was allowed. As for the townfolks who were not under Jin's control or contract were instantly forced into the temporary dimensional instance with the intention to wipe their memories away once it had been done.

But for now, Jin had decided to keep that method as a secondary method since Kraft said that he might be able to mass hypnotise the entire town once they are in the temporary dimensional instance to think that the new town they build after the High Elves' attack would be the thing they would waiting for anxiously to happen.

It was only at that moment, that Jin wondered why Kraft could not just mind manipulate the High Elves to tell him the location.
