Reincarnated As A Wolf With Cheats

Chapter 151 The Witch's Story - Part 2

*faints*

Kaily fainted while crying. Fortunately, there was someone with her who prevented her from crying out loud.

If she were to cry loudly, or if she had run towards her father, then the knights would have caught her and would have killed her right away.

Since she fainted, the elf held her preventing her from getting hurt. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that because of her, Kaily was safe and alive at the moment.

But why did the man run towards the knights?

Running away would have been the best option at the moment. However, he did the opposite.

The elf too doubted his intelligence.

Whatever, she walked towards him with his daughter after the knights had left.

The elf was a female, she seemed to be in her teens, of course, physically. In reality, who knew how old she was?

When she arrived near the man, thinking that he was a corpse, he found out that he was still breathing and was barely hanging.

"You!"

"You are alive?"

She could basically look at the ripped-off hands and legs that were lying just next to him.

Yes, the knights left his head the way it was because they had already stabbed him multiple times.

As soon as he stopped his breathing, all of them left – there were only 8 knights, to begin with.

So why did they just leave after killing him?

Wouldn't searching for the princess be the next thing that they would be doing? After all, that was their primary task, to begin with, so it made no sense.

Of course, it made no sense until a while later.

The elf was shocked by seeing the man to be alive despite shedding tons of blood.

Well, what was more surprising was the fact that his lips were still moving.

It was as if he was trying to say something.

The elf lowered her head because she wanted to hear him out while carrying Kaily on her back.

"Can…"

"You…"

"Please protect her please...?", was what he asked in a shaky voice.

It was more like his last wish and a request which he made genuinely.

She nodded her head and said, "Yes…"

The reason for which she said that was simple, she was kind.

Yes, she was way too kind to reject such a wish. There was no other reason at all.

The man, who was on his death bed while being covered in blood, said, "Thank you…"

The smile that he put on his face at the moment was something that touched her heart and made her emotional.

Of course, she smiled too since she wanted to bid him farewell with a smile. Well, she had no idea who he was and despite that she promised him something like that, she couldn't possibly back off after that.

And just when she had thought about that, a lot of blood splashed from her back.

"Huh?"

She was turned back while her face was filled with confusion when all of a sudden she found her back to be wet.

And right in front of her, there were many more knights standing with swords pointed at her.

"Hand over that girl to us!", said the one who stabbed Kaily.

The wetness that the elf felt was because of Kaily's blood. She was stabbed by the person who was trying to attack the elf.

To them, she was just expendable, and after doing such a thing, they tried to cover it up while treating it as if it never happened.

"You bastards!", she snapped when she found the amount of blood that was actually dripping down of her leaf-like clothes.

Just a moment ago she promised the man that she would protect his daughter and just a second later she failed to prevent her from getting stabbed.

Since she was unconscious, she didn't feel the pain from the stabbing, but the wound was no joke.

Especially for a skinny girl like Kaily, the wound could be considered to be a fatal one if it wasn't treated within 10 minutes!

The elf glared at all the knights that were in front of her. Initially, there were only eight, but now, there were more than 60 of them!

Just where the heck were they hiding? – this was something that the elf was asking herself.

Of course, after seeing the leaves and some branches stuck on their armor, she realized that they were indeed hiding on the trees or were using the stealth potion which they might have gotten from the Kaily's kingdom.

"Damn, you bastards, you are going to pay for what you have done.", was what the elf said.

"And who is gonna make us pay?", asked the knight who was standing ahead of everyone, he was the one who stabbed Kaily a few seconds ago.

"You?", he smirked.

"Guys, doesn't she look young?"

"What do you say?"

"Should we have some fun with her?", he asked his fellow knights.

Of course, being a knight means upholding the honor and protecting the weak, but for these pigs, those were words only for saying.

They had no humanity in them despite being humans.

*grit*

"Earth Spell – Earth Wall!", she extended her right arm forward and used a spell causing the erection of a large wall from the ground.

Right after doing that she ran away from the place with all her might.

'No wonder what happens, I must protect her…'

She feared that the knights would still follow her while using the stealth potions that was why she didn't stop despite seeing that no one was following her.

She wasn't and didn't stop until all her stamina ran out. Of course, she hid behind a tree to see if anyone was coming but no one came.

She was thankful and continued treating Kaily, on whom she had been using a Healing spell since the moment she turned back and felt the blood.

Precisely because of that, she was alive even after 30 minutes despite looking at a lot of blood initially.

But why did the knights fail to follow them? Did just a simple wall stop them from capturing a simple elf and a princess?

Well, the answer is no. While the wall slowed their speed, it failed to stop them completely.

So, why didn't they follow the elf?

The answer was simple, it was because of what Kaily's father had done – Monster Attracting Potion.

He had put a magic spell on himself earlier that if he were to die, then all the monster attracting potion would fall on the knights and yes, that's what precisely happened.

What else would you expect from the king of the third most powerful nation in the world? – of that time.

Despite using the stealth potion, the monster attracting potion, which was in gaseous form, engulfed them and caused a flock of monsters – hyenas – to rush towards them which not only distracted them but also ended up killing them.

Only one, yes, only one of them survived the crowd who started walking towards the exit of the forest before reaching which he was eaten up by the forest for harming her child – an elf.

*huff huff*

*panting*

The elf's energy had almost ended up getting drained while trying to heal Kaily.

'The wound was indeed deep…', she kept on thinking about the pain that she would have felt when she was stabbed.

But more than that, the pain of losing her father would have been great.

She understood that and kept quiet now.

The healing was over and the wound had been healed, however, Kaily wasn't conscious yet.

Thankfully, the elf had arrived at the place which was part of the Arb Elves' territory.

She too did faint, but she knew that she and Kaily would be fine if the Arb Elves, one of the kindest races found them.

( 2 days later )

*blink blink*

"Ah, you are awake?"

When the elf opened her eyes, she heard a voice that was addressed to her.

She almost immediately pulled her body up and turned her gaze towards the voice.

A young elf was sitting right next to her and was staring at her.

"Good morning!", she said with a smile.

"Eh?", the elf was shocked momentarily after seeing her.

The Arb elf who was in front of the normal elf decided to tell everything properly about what had happened after they had fainted and she listened to her.

Finally, she realized that the Arb elves saved them – it went just as she had planned anyway so an explanation wasn't required to begin with.

"Then where is she?", the elf asked.

"Ah, you mean the young witch?", the arb elf asked.

"Witch?", the elf was shocked to hear that.

All this time she thought that she was a human child but it was only now that she realized that she was no human despite having a human-like appearance.

"So, she is a witch?", she asked.

"Yes.", the arb elf nodded her head and answered as if it was nothing.

'No wonder healing her was difficult…'

Actually, the healing magic, in fact, much other magic works easily on humans – one reason might be because they are the weakest race with high intelligence.

In any case, elven healing magic would work easily on them since it's high tier magic so the elf was surprised because it took away too much of her energy when she tried to heal the young Kaily.

The reason was now evident – it was because she was a witch.

Yes, witches and wizards had a separate kingdom of their own and their bodies were different too when compared to humans or other races.
