Book 16: Chapter 19


    Youre going too far!


    After pouring water in, the elf who holed up inside the cave was forced toe out. She shook her hand out and fired yet several more arrows. I walked straight into them,pletely disregarding them. Failing to hurt me, her teeth chattered. She leapt back and loudly shouted, What are you?! Why are my attacks useless against you?! Aah!!


    I mmed the girl into an invisible wall with a loud thud as if she crashed into a tree trunk. After spinning her around several rotations, I grabbed her cloak and pulled her back.


    Aaaaahh!!


    She shrieked as she tried to escape, but I overpowered her without breaking a sweat. She shook her cloak off then spun around in a flustered fashion to try and attack me with her dagger. Unfortunately for her, it didnt do nothing but leave a scratch on my neck. I then punched her in the face hard enough to flip her over.


    That hurts!!


    You look as though youre a kid. Why did you do that?


    I grabbed her lower back picked her up from the ground with one hand. She wasnt big in stature. She was just a kid. I would be convinced if I was told that she was the young version of Lucia. She had glimmering blue eyes, but they were different to Moms darker shade of blue. She looked around the age of a middle schooler. She was struck hard twice, but she didnt quit. She kept wriggling in an attempt to break free.


    Be a good girl. Youre just a kid. We wont be rude to a kid. Of course, the most important thing is your attitude. Not only have you conducted forbidden experiments, you even attacked us. This is no longer a simple prank.


    I! Did! Not! Let! Go! Of! Me!


    Fine.


    I tossed her onto the ground. She cried out and before nting into the ground. Mommy Vyvyan, expression wrathful, walked up to her. I knew why she was so violent. Under normal circumstances, Mom wouldnt be so violent, especially toward a girl. However, the girl attacked me more than once.


    Y-Your Highness?! She slowly raised her head to look at Mommy Vyvyan. Her eyes dted as if they were standing vertical due to fear.


    Mom looked at her with a cold look: I dont know who you are or what youre trying to do, but you vited my orders. You trespassed into a zone I deemed forbidden, conducted forbidden experiments and attacked us. Combined, those crimes are plenty enough of a reason for me to kill you.


    I I I


    If you sincerely acknowledge your wrongdoings, and show regret from the bottom of your heart, as the Elven Queen, I can forgive you; after all, you are just an ordinary kid. I can forgive you for a prank void of ill-will. That said, it only applies if you acknowledge your wrongdoings and apologise now!


    I


    The young girl was so frightened that she was lost for words. All she did was lie on the ground in tremble. I let out a heavy sigh: All you have to do is sincerely admit to your wrongdoings. You didnt do anything outrageous, but there are several questions you must answer. First, what is your goal? Second, why did youe here? Third, where exactly did you get these things from? Why did you get those things from the dark elves ce? What are you trying to do?


    I umm I umm What exactly am I


    Tell the truth. Mom aggressively stomped her foot, frightening the young girl speechless.


    I let out a hopeless breath. I looked over to Mom and said, Shes just a kid at the end of the day. Mom, you dont need to be so tense.


    Mom looked over to me and sternly replied, Son, an arrow fired by a fourteen year old elven kid is just as lethal as an arrow fired by a forty year old elf. As this girl hasmitted these unforgivable deeds, its totally possible for her tomit worse deeds. You cant judge if an elf is worthy of your sympathy or not based on their age. Furthermore, based on what shes done, I think that, while she is unwilling to honestly admit to her crimes, as long as we have proof, its more appropriate to just kill her.


    I knew Mom was serious as she had already prepared a fireball and ice picks. She was ready to attack at the drop of a hat. I argued, I dont think we should, Mom. Regardless of what the case is, she doesnt appear to be a treacherous girl. Shes probably frightened right now. Its better for us to let her rx.


    Mommy doesnt want to argue, but tonight is a full-moon night. If we dont learn the truth now, it might be toote after night falls.


    Wouldnt it be impossible for us to find out if we kill her? We should wait, at least, until


    I looked up at the sky. Thest ray of sunlight had disappeared. The entire interior of the forest was enveloped in darkness. I spaced out as I looked at the sky.


    I gazed at the huge moon. Nightfall was just around the corner. Today was the most special day for elves. It was when elves were at their strongest. It was the day where their ancient blood erupted. That didnt apply just for elves but every creature with magic


    Hahahahaha!!!


    The instant the moonlight shone down, a bold smile surfaced on the girls face


    ========


    Current time inside the Elven Imperial Pce.


    Whats the matter? Whats the matter?!! What happened?! Whats that loud sound?! What exactly happened?!


    The guards looked at the birds that flew off due to fright while in panic themselves. The ground beneath their feet began to tremble as if an earthquake struck. The guards had no idea what happened. They were thinking about whether or not theyd get to go home for some sleep tonight. After all, they wanted to rx, too; however, thest ce they expected to be disturbed, the Queens flower garden in her backyard, was engulfed in anarchy. To make matters worse, it looked as though a cavalry group was charging toward them!


    ========


    Its all your fault! Its all your fault! Its all your fault!!


    Mom and I went back to back. We watched the blood-red eyes closing in all around us step by step. On the other side was a bold smile.


    Now, now, ept our rage. ept my rage, the dark elves rage and the entire forests rage!!!
