“Watashitachi no nakama o kaese!”
The ‘indecently’ dressed ‘elven’ woman spatout, her bountiful chest shook a little along with her words which caused several of the Tristain Academy boys’ gazes to wander off despite the tense atmosphere, which of course was noticed by some of the female students who gave them a cold look that promised eventual retribution...
The ‘elf’then slowly pointed her finger at her fellow elf who they had to tie up in case he tries something.It was obvious from her gestures that she wanted him back...
Seeing this, Professor Colbert sighed as he thought back to how it came to this...
~Flashback~
“Haaa? What did you just say? If wehadn’t fired the spells at it, then no one knows what that monster could have done!” A third year academy student shouted athis fellow classmate in rage.
“Are you an idiot? We don’t even know how many of them are there! What if they seek revengebecause of our aggression?”
“Aggression? We are not the invaders, they are! This is all those darn infidel elves’ doing! I bet they are planning to invade all of Halkegenia, starting from Tristain!
“Silence!”
Proffesor Colbert rarely used hisauthority as a teacher over hisstudents as he finds it more productive to teach his students when they are not afraid ofhim and can relate to him in a personal level. If he had to resort to such means to silence them, then that would mean that something really wrong was going on or was about to happen...
Everyone, including Kirche stood stockstill as they, for the first time saw their kind Sensei so serious...
Proffesor Colbertthen turned to Tabitha who stood expressionlesly next to her blue dragonfamiliar, her head burried ina book she was reading.
“Tabitha, you’ve been constantly using the artifact that I’ve givenyou before we took off on your familiar, am I right?”
With a slight nod from the blue haired girl, he went on,
“Then takeLouise with you and fly up as high as you can with your familiar, ifI give the bluesignal, then I want you both to attack the enemy with everything that you’ve got, if I give you the redsignal, then ride back to the Academy as fastas you can and inform the Headmaster Osmond what you have seen.”Unauthorized tale usage: if you spot this story on Amazon, report the violation.
As both of the girls understood the code of nobility and the seriousness of the situation, they saw no reason to object.
““Understood!””
Not to mention Professor Colbert’s commanding aura which was overwhelming to say the least...
When the dragon took off with the girls, Professor Colbert turned to his students, his face grim,
“They are coming...”
~Flashback END~
So as a gesture of goodwill, he ordered his students to back away from the ‘prisoner’ who had thankfully only been knockedout by the spells of a couple of his impulsive third years who, without his permission attacked the ‘elf’in panic, probably because it was the first time for them to seeone.
Even though Professor Colbertwas quite scared of the ‘elves’ appearing out of nowhere, he wasn’t that biased against them as he hadpersonally witnessedhumanity at it’s lowest... Perhapsthiswas one of the reasons that he chose to teach at the academy, a place where people were still pure...
So after the students retreated a few paces away, the‘elven’ girl, with a thankful expression, immediately walkedtowards herunconscious ‘friend’. After checking him for any injuries, she sighedinrelief which didn’t escape the notice of the students as they wondered whether all those stories that they heard about elves being savage monsters were true at all... This girl was just really worried about oneof her own just like they as noblesworry about their countrymen...
As she ordered her aides to handle the ropes that bound their friend, she turned to face them, her features werea little softer now, probably from appreciating the reality that a conflict wasn’t born out of this.
Seeing this, Proffesor Colbert felt the need to apologize,
“We’re really sorry about this, it was a misunderstanding on our part. Wedidn’t mean to hurt your friendat all...”
The girl looked as if she somehow understood him as she then let out a hint of a smile, nodding her head which was apparently a universal gesture of understanding, if Colbert’s reciprocation in a similar manner was of any indication.
Proffesor Colbert thought it was wise that they returned to the academy for now. He had to immediately report this to Professor Osmond personally, alsothe old pervertprobably has some kind of artifact that enables communication regardless of the language barrier whichthey could definitely make good use of to hopefully sort out this mess...
So, with his right index finger, he first pointedat himself then towardssomewhere else in the distance which wasn’t that hard to decipherfor the female ‘elf’ as she then nodded before turning her back to them as she joined with her group who had already finished preparing to take off.
As they then spread their ‘magic’ wings and took off with a ‘fwowoosh’, heading towards the most magnificent city that Proffesor Colbert had ever laid his eyes on, hestood there mutteringabsentmindedly,
“These ‘elves’ might wear the strangest of things... Butthey really do knowhow to build a city...”
