บท 27: The Elven Race Joins the Fray, Part 1
As Pulse and Wang Tao continued talking, a few thousand sand killometers away from their place inside a forest a massive gate , standing at a height of 20 meters.
Continuing with their own chat, unknown to either Pulse and Wang Tao, a few thousand killometers away from them in a remote village surrounded by forests could be seen figures praying in front of a massive gate that shone a bright green color.
Judging by their non-modern clothing, the people could be easily recognized as villagers that dealt in the trade of herbs and meat from the animals inside the forests.
Crowded in the middle of the village were a few hundred villagers, consisting of elderly, children, women and tough-bodied men, who continuously kowtowed and prayed for a miracle. Their bodies full of bruises and cuts, while some were on the deaths bed as they struggled to pray for a miracle to save their pitiful lives.
"Save us, please, o,mighty Gods. Our village,ever since it's existence, has been loyal and devoted in the honor of the ancestors who graced us and offered us a better life in the ancient times. We beg you, please arrive faster and save us, we are no match for those demonical beings!" cried loudly an Elder at the front, who looked to be like the Village Elder as the people sat behind him
"Please, save us! Those demons killed mama...." a young kid that was about 7 years old cried loudly as he rushed in front of the gate, just to be stopped by a woman from the crowd, who took him on her arms and hugged him tightly, tears already falling like a waterfall from her eyes
"My husband won't last long, please, save my husband. Someone, anyone! Please!" the hectic schrieks of a woman could be heard as she hugged the body of a sturdy man covered in cuts
But regardless how much they begged and cried, the gate remained as still as water, brightening it's surroundings with it's emerald-like colour as it stood proudly at a height of over twenty meters.
*Ptuuu*
A few arrows flew out of the forest hitting a few villagers, which immediately ended their lives. The scene immediately terrified the others as each and everyone of them jumped up from the floor, looking at the bloody scene of their fellow villagers with arrows struck on their heads.
"Get back, get back i said! Kids and women, hide behind us! Men, we shall not cower before our foes and we will protect our families and the ones who we hold dear to our hearts!"
One of the sturdy men who held a Longsword and a shield quickly moved in front of the others, holding his shield high as he protected a woman who was about to be pierced by the arrow.
"Thank you very much..." said the woman who was almost killed by the arrow, her face as pale as a ghosts
"Don't worry, just go back and stand with the others, we will take care of it. These bastards sure are persistent, we've already been fighting them for hours, how long is this hell gonna last until our saviours come!" said the man grudgingly, as he shielded the woman as she walked backwards with the others
The men quickly gathered at the front, holding forks, bludgeons, kitchen knives, shovels and other miscellaneous items they could find to use as they formed a spear formation around the weaker villagers with the sturdy man in the middle.
"Wang Wei, we have to hold this up somehow until they come. The prophecy from a hundred years ago was true, all we have to do is hold on for a little longer! Then we'll be saved!" said the Elderly loudly trying to motivate the people as he looked proudly at his son standing in front of the people and protecting the villagers like a real leader
As soon as the Elder stopped talking, dozens of silhouettes came out of the forest as they approached from the group from all directions with an evil grin on their faces as they looked at the massive gate with contempt and disdain.
These people looked just like ordinary humans, but their faces and body were full of wrinkles similar to that of older people had. They had big pointy ears and their eyes shined a bright red colour as they held their swords and bows ready to attack at any given moment.
"Bastards, so you must be the Dark Elves from the ancient records stored in our village! The enemy of our saviours, the Elven race, the enemy of the humanity, a disgusting species that follows the devil's way! Even if you kill us all today, once our saviours come, none of you will leave alive!" cried the Elder full of rage as soon as he saw the people that killed more than seventy percent of his villagers once the world turned chaotical and gates that spawned goblins and other mythical creatures appeared
The people, in the beginning of the apocalypse were scattered, afraid and there were a lot of losses. But with the Elders guidance and Wang Wei's powers acquired from hunting the monsters, the situation in the village stabillized as the people fought together and helped each other, gaining more powers.
Differently from Wang Tao's situation, the people from the village received no technological weapons but Potions, Antidotes and a few sets of swords and armor like in the ancient times, where people fought melee battles.
The peace in the village slowly returned in just 1 day of continous fighting against the beasts, before another disaster struck the village. A few hundred Dark Elves attacked the people in just a few moments, killing a majority of the villagers.
The people here were healthy and strong from their not so easy lifestyle that treaded the path of a mountain villager that had to sow the grounds, carry water from the forest lakes and hunt for animals, which means they weren't entirely hopeless against the Dark Elves.
But with relentless sneak attacks from the Dark Elves and their better equipments, the able bodied villagers were mostly killed, leaving only a dozen men that had to protect a big number of weak women and elderly.
However, as big as the losses of the people were, the Dark Elves have also suffered a big hit as more than half of the assailants died, leaving only the dozen Dark Elves that appeared now alive. For that, the Dark Elves were furious and wished to torture and use these pitiful beings as their sacrifices for their dark magic.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk. You've done well so far, pitiful humans. However, do you really think they'll come? The Elven Race? Perhaps after their failure of thousands of years ago they might not even join this Dimensional Battle anymore out of shame. What a shameful, Elven Race." said a person who walked out of the crowd of the shadows, at a small pace
It was a woman with pointy ears and a slim body with clothes that accentuated her every curve, a perky butt and a big chest that could make every man droll at the sight. Unlike the other Dark Elves, the only similarity between her and the other Dark Elves was her skin colour being of a darker colour and her pointy ears.
As soon as she finished talking, the woman immediately started chanting before a cloud of darkness slowly formed in her hands before scattering underground. From the ground, small rumbles could be heard as a couple of bone hands reached out from the ground, as a group of skeletons slowly crawled out.
"Dark magic! It's dark magic...she's, she's, she's a necromancer!" cried the Elder loudly as his face turned pale from fear
Magic, Spirituality and Paranormal stuff always scared people because of the unknown and seeing such dark magic that raised skeletons from the death terrified the people as some of the young kids fainted out of fear immediately.
"Just this little magic and you're reacting like that? Humanity has surely turned pitiful, from the Great Warring Race it used to be, to be so afraid of a Necromancer, aren't you ashamed of yourself?" said the woman with scorn and disdain in her voice, before she instantly disappeared from her place
The people were shocked and confused, before they heard the shriek of the Elder. Looking in that direction, the people were slack-jawed as if they have seen a ghost, as the woman dark elf was holding their elder by the neck in the air.
"Father!!!" cried Wang Wei as he tried to rush to his father's side while holding his sword
As soon as he was close enough, Wang Wei swung his sword as it was immediately covered in a fiery aura, making the woman squint her gaze as she looked at him before she kicked the man a few meters backwards in a flash.
"You've already mastered the Elemental Aura. Interesting, truly interesting. Just yesterday, you humans were so pitiful that you could only fight without any spiritual power, and in one day, you have already mastered the Elemental Aura. This is truly interesting, oh, how i wish to cut your body into pieces and analyze every piece of flesh so i can figure out your secret." said the woman as she looked at the man with a greedy look, licking her lips in a seducing tone
"So this is your father? How should i kill him? How should i torture him? I'd love to see your face as you see your most loved person in the world getting ripped apart, bit by bit. Wouldn't that be interesting? Plus, you've killed a few of my men already, i should get some payback." asked the woman with a crazed expression on her face, her bright red eyes shining brighter under the darky clouds in the sky
Wang Wei was shocked to the core, his whole body in such immense pain that he never felt before. He hasn't even realised when he was sent flying. All that he remembered is that he swung his sword and the woman instantly disappeared before a shocking power akin to a mountain smashed into his body, throwing him a few meters backwards breaking his ribs apart. Any little movement caused him so much pain that his whole body was sweating like a waterfall.
Hearing her words, the psychical pain and the mental attack by the words of the woman instantly destroyed every defense the man had as he looked at the Gate with a begging look as tears fell from his eyes.
He was so powerless, he couldn't do anything to help his father, now, his only relative in this world was in the hands of such a diabolic woman, how can he not despair?
At that moment, Wang Wei saw a blinding light shine from the gate before a person appeared out of the portal at the speed of lightning.
"Kathrin, it's been a long time since we've last seen. The last time you ran with your tail between your legs, now you're tormenting powerless humans? How majestic of you." said the person that appeared in a soft voice which instilled a feeling of peace to anyone that heard her
As soon as Kathrin, the Dark Elf heard the voice, her face paled considerably as she turned to look at the portal.
"Elven Priestess, Silvia..it's you..how did that..."
Before her words even finished, the Elven Priestess Silvia pointed her finger at Kathrin as a bright flash of lightning flew at the lightning speed towards her.
Instantly, at the spot where Kathrin stood before, the ground immediately exploded in every direction, leaving a hole in it's way.
Kathrin immediately appeared a few meters away panting heavily as her forehead was covered in sweat. She immediately threw the Elder high into the air before she flashed again , reappearing right behind her subordinates who were looking at the Priestess in fear.
"Get lost, Kathrin. Now's not the time for us to settle our problems. Go tell your Queen that we'll have enough time to fight in the future as the Dimensional Battle has only began..." said the Priestess Silvia as she looked at her with a cold face
"I'll remember to tell your words sincerely to my Queen, Silvia. Hmph, you guys are lucky, otherwise if it wasn't for this trump here, none of you'd have survived! Let's go!" said Kathrin as she looked at the villagers coldly, before she flashed a few times and disappeared in the forest, followed by her subordinates
As soon as Kathrin was gone, Priestess Silvia sighed a breath of relief as her body weakened considerably. From the portal came a series of footsteps before a dozen more Elves came out, holding their swords and shields ready to fight.
"Silvia!" cried one man in the lead who was dressed in a more luxurious armor than the other men
"It's ok, Marvin. I just used too much power on that attack. I haven't realised that my powers would be restricted so much after i entered the Earth. Kathrin was here, and just like me, she was weakened as well." said the Priestess in a weak tone
"Kathrin? She's here already? That means the Dark Elves have gotten here..."
"Yes, Marvin. And if i didn't come out just now, our last remnant Elven Race successors that survived on Earth so far would have been killed to the last..."

FutureReader I'm really sorry for the long hiatus guys, i had some serious life problems in the past months and i could barely get any work done!
I would like to say that this is not a filler and i'm hoping that you guys see more of the Races that will appear on this novel in the future.
Also, part 2 is gonna be out tomorrow at the same time as this one. After that, we'll get back to Wang Tao and his gang and see what amazing beasts he will tame in the future!
For glory, for humanity!
