Chapter 424 - Episode Seventy - The Ear Chief's Troops that Controls the Sky (6)

Olviga was looking up at the sky with a stunned look on his face.

After rubbing his eyes several times, he fell from the Pegasus and slumped to the ground.

He seemed to be repeating some words with his mouth while he was prostrate on the ground, but I couldn’t hear him because of the distance.

There was no thought wave through the Pegasus, so I had no idea what he was saying.

Well, maybe I don’t need to know.

To be frank, Olviga was a bit of a loser.

I don’t think we can have any more useful exchanges.

The other high elves seemed to have lost their will to fight, looking at the sky and Olviga in turn, covering their faces with their hands as if disappointed.

Some of them are even crying.

I suppose it’s only natural, since the king they worshipped for 10,000 years was so disgraceful.

…… I have no more use for the High Elves.

I’ll take the liberty of letting him fly over and look for any sign of Count Julem.

I’m sure he won’t try to mess with me any more than he already has.

At the very least, the High Elves who were present at this moment would not come out.

“Ah ……”

As I thought about this, I suddenly realized something.

Yes, why hadn’t I thought of this?

It was as if Olviga had known I was coming here before I did.

The spirits were here, too, he said.

Olviga probably knows Count Julem.

In other words, there is a high probability that the location of Count Julem and Mea will be discovered if Olviga is rounded up.

The clue came from the other side without the need to look for it.

To capture the King of the High Elves would have caused chaos in the sky country Alfheim, and as I wanted to move as peacefully as possible, it was an action I should have avoided.

But now that Olviga has attacked from the other side and self-destructed on his own, that constraint no longer has much meaning.

I didn’t want to cause too much trouble for the High Elves, who had nothing to do with this, but that was probably too late now.

Looking at Olviga’s words and actions, his sense of guilt was beginning to fade.

In the first place, if he was related to Count Julem, Olviga was not irrelevant or nothing.

I can’t blame them if they catch me and beat me to a pulp.

I turned the wooden dragon around and headed back to Olviga’s vicinity.

Olviga was standing next to the Pegasus, banging his head against the ground.

He seemed to be chanting some kind of strange incantation.

“Funny, I can’t wake up from this nightmare, I can’t wake up from this nightmare …… I can’t wake up from this nightmare!”

It was my imagination.

I walked up to Olviga and pointed my wand at him.

“Wind, carry.”

A mass of wind that was generated, wrapped around Olviga and lifted his body into the air.

I’ll pull him straight up to the top of the wooden dragon.

“Wh-, whooaaaaa! Why am I falling from the sky! I see, it was just a nightmare after alllllll! If that’s the case, please wake me up quicklyyyyyyy!”

While the High Elves looked on in dismay, Olviga’s figure flew into the sky.

And then, just like that, I slammed the king of the high elves with his hand right in front of me.

“HIiyubuguohhhh!?”

Olviga screamed in a voice that was unimaginable from the graceful way he appeared.

I decided to raise the altitude of the wooden dragon and leave the scene.

There was fear that the High Elves would come to reclaim their king, Olviga.

Not likely, though.

“Wake up now, this is reality. I don’t have time to play with you.”

Olviga stood up unsteadily, glared at me and smiled weirdly.

“You fool …… Did you think I can’t do anything without my wand? I was forced to fight against a large magical weapon in the flesh, but once I was on this strange ship, it’s my win. Now, let me repay you for what you’ve just done ……”

“…… Carry.”

I waved my wand and ten magic circles appeared in front of me, with the same number of Ortems.

Olviga’s face tensed up, and he looked at each one of them with bloodshot eyes as if he were evaluating them.

“What do we do? Do you want to do it?”

I asked, and sweat trickled down Olviga’s forehead.

Olviga wiped the sweat off his face and gasped for breath, smiling wickedly as he did his best to cover up his tense face.

“All right! Come, Marren! I knew from the start that you, the person from the oracle, were no ordinary man! I see you as my equal and challenge you to an Alfheim-style duel! This is the highest honor I can bestow upon a mere mortal! Now, let go of your puppet and your wand at once ……!”

I waved my wand in silence.

All ten of them attacked Olviga at once.

Olviga opened his mouth wide and tried to run behind him, but when he reached the end of the wooden dragon, he seemed to have decided that he couldn’t escape, so he turned around and raised his arms high in the air.

“Okay, alright! I’ll listen to what you have to say!”

At the same time as Olviga’s proposal, the Ortem, who was running in the lead, shot him in the abdomen with his head.

Olviga’s body slammed to the floor.

The remaining nine Ortems began to strike at Olviga’s body in unison.

After a few minutes of beating, I let Olviga go.

Olviga was stretched out on the floor, covered in bruises.

…… A normal human would break here, but the High Elves are sturdy and pride incarnate.

Especially when you’re its king, Olviga.

This may take some time.

“Tell me about the oracle or something. You said you knew something about me too, right??I’m sure it’s important to you as well, but …… if you’re trying to hide something from me, I’m going to use any means necessary.”

When I pointed my wand at him, Olviga rolled his body and put his head on the ground.

“All right! I’ll tell you anything you want to know! We have expensive magic tools and magical ores in this country! If you want, I can give you a part of the territory of this country! I’ll even make you an honorary High Elf myself! So please spare my life ……!”

I was taken by surprise, and I went rigid.

Is this some sort of trap ……? No, even if it’s a trap, how can a High Elf be so foolish?

“You …… what are you thinking about?”

“What am I thinking about? There is no greater treasure than the life of a king! It’s a small price to pay to save my life!”

“No, have you no High Elf pride ……?”

“Fool! That’s a small idea, Marren! A small thought, Marren! A small thought for a lowly creature who will not live more than a hundred years, no matter how hard he tries! Why do you think I’ve survived 10,000 years since the end of the Mythic War1 Because I’ve put my own life above all else! I will not choose any means to that end!”

I, Is this guy serious.

He was ten times worse than what I had initially expected.
