The next day Klaus woke up again with all his escorts and companions, the sun was rising backside of Klaus and because of such the forest in territory of elves seemed much more magical
"Now then, isn't it something..."
Klaus nodded in acknowledgment and next everyone started their journey again towards the elven forest
By the time the Sun was almost over the head of Klaus they arrived inside the forest but now they had a new trouble ahead
"The descendents of the World Tree greet Duke Brahm from the Empire!"
Klaus's journey party was greeted by a team of Elves in front of the forest, there seemed to be one High Elf with extreme level of familiar beauty that seemed much more enhanced with forest around her while others seemed to be her guards equipped with bows, daggers and swords
"Greetings, First Princess of Elves!"
Klaus returned the greetings with a bright smile, the Elves looked quite surprised because of Klaus's unpredictable knowledge
Klaus's own companions were surprised but their poker faces were quite tight but as always the triple fairies were overly enthusiastic as ever
"Oh my a High Elf huh!? Been a while since I saw the last one!?"
"She looks like a royal bloodline too!"
"Is she the sister of that one Ancient Elf?"
The fairies immediately surrounded the new Elven princess at once and started their chit chat, the Elves also looked surprised by this
But before the fairies could start poking their hands over the Elven princess Klaus caught them back with grip of his fingers and stated
"I apologise for their rudeness, they are a little childish from time to time"
The Elven princess nodded with a smile and shook her head
"No no, it's no problem at all and it's already an honour for us to be able to see the fairies like this, my sister Sylphy always used to talk about her meetings with you
I have wanted to see fairies for many years and finally I'm glad that my wish came true!"
Klaus heard this and with a smile he released the fairies as he replied
"Then it's a relief..."
But suddenly all fairies surrounded Klaus's face with puffed faces and started their complaining
"Klaus is so rude!"
"How dare you grab us like flies!?"
"Hah! Really this guy can't treat a lady nicely!"
Klaus just ignored their harsh words with a smile over his face but at same time suddenly one of the guards of the Elven princess suddenly whispered
"Princess, can you see that?"
The Princess nodded and showed her trembling hands on her backside and replied back
"Indeed I can see that, just hope we don't die by their mere presence..."
The guy backed off with sweats across his face, other elves also seemed to be in a similar situation, the princess was still putting a cool poker face over her face but inside
'I'm Silvia, the first princess of Elves, I consider myself fairly strong, among all Elves I'm known to be most sensitive of them all
And inside the forests the senses of Elves get increased by multiple levels, many might not be able to see outside but inside of the forest there is nothing we can't see as we borrow the power directly from the World Tree here but now as I can see them here in the forest...
What the hell are they!?! The guards and knights are all elites comparable our royal forces directly under the Elven King but even leaving it aside
What's with that female knight!? She seems like the direct knight of Duke Brahm but what's with the wind surrounding her!? Her compatibility with wind almost surpasses mine, a High Elves!?
I know that fairies are a race of legends and epics but what's with the three of them!? If by chance they got offended our Kingdom will be wiped out in a day
Then this quite noble lady!? No doubt she is a demon but the aura of blood around her, in my life of hundreds of years I haven't seen anyone this strong, even the direct subordinates of Demon King didn't have that kind of presence
And on top of all of them the Duke Brahm... I can't see anything... I can't feel anything... Not even his presence, he is standing in front of me yet he has no presence as if he is just part of existence not standing out in any way...
I can't even begin to imagine what this Hero or Saint is capable of that all these beings are following him...'
The Princess was indeed sharp, Klaus also noticed those gazes filled with fear and nervousness of all the elves and said
"Elves are sensitive indeed, I'm sorry for this..."
Klaus said that waved away his hands suddenly right in front of eyes of all Elves, the presence of fairies and Elena who held quite literally an exploding aura
Their presence was decreased a little and their leaking aura got a little suppressed, the eyes of all Elves suddenly widened and Klaus questioned
"So the carriage can't be used now right?"
The Elves just nodded unconsciously like puppies and Klaus also observed the pathway in forest, there were literally roots coming out of everywhere and it was clear nobody tried to change the natural growth of the trees making it a denser forest
This also worked as a natural barrier of Elves, because of that mass level war against them was impossible and invasion of monsters was also very difficult
"Then how long is the journey with the foot?"
The Elven princess looked quite nervous now and replied
"By foot... Even if we rush all the way it will take about 3 days..."
Klaus smiled and replied "Then since it's like this let's just take it easy on our way then, I have a feeling we will get along well..."
The Elves nodded like puppets, now the realisation of reality had hit them hard the pressure over their souls because of natural instincts of wild has also increased a lot
But at same time Klaus suddenly noticed a change in his mind too, a grin appeared over his face as he muttered
"Now if it isn't quite interesting? Quite the guy if I say so myself..."
The words were for Shawn who was hundreds of miles away from Klaus's current location, currently he was sitting inside Swords Edge Inn where coincidentally Reus's party was also staying at
'I guess I just can't right now... My mind says to go yet my conscience and soul opposes it, I just can't become so shameless enough to just take everything like this
For my lord, I need to prove myself even more or else I would never be able to accept everything like this!
This will become a mind demon that will hunt everyday if I let it be, I guess I just can't relax and take it easy here huh...'
Shawn made a big sigh and next he grabbed his sword and shield again and stood back from his seat and started making his way out of the inn
Coincidentally Reus's party also seemed to be making their way back from their adventure and both Reus and Shawn crossed each other and Reus immediately turned back towards Shawn
"What happened!?"
"Is he someone you know!?"
"He was quite handsome indeed..."
"Hahaha, come on Reus!"
The others also started talking seeing Reus's eyes widened like that, Reus also shrugged it off and turned back towards the inn as he muttered
"It's nothing I guess, I just felt like he was someone important, lets meet him next time if we meet again...
But seriously... That guy was cold, I don't know how to explain it, it was like flames that were colder than ice, vengeance! Right I saw the light of vengeance in his eyes...."
