– Volume 2 Episode 17

17. Best Warrior Exiled (2)

There were traces of Rencia’s experiments in order to save her own mother, Elysia, and to save her forest.

Then, while living in the hole, the diary that Lencia wrote while also recording her experiments was discovered.

[…a huge slime that was stained blue and black. Sylphid told me that it was influenced by the magic of the demons. The demons all disappeared from the ground, but their traces still remained on the ground, and it flowed into the elven forest. Once it was successfully dealt with, traces of him still remain in the forest and on myself. First, let’s make a medicine against the pieces of grass and wood that have turned black and blue by that guy’s power.][…Today’s experiment also failed, but the effect started to come out, even slightly. With a little more improvement, it seems like it could be completely cured. Could this be applied to making a medicine to cure the mother’s illness?][…] I was able to finish the drug in a week. From there, I got a hint and completed the medicine for my mother. After healing the forest, let Maulro deliver the medicine to her mother.]

The date on which her last diary was written, along with the recipe for the ‘Elf Tears’, which Rencia gave her name, was the day she returned to the village.

…… It was also the day her elves drove her out of her village.

What happened next was not written down, but they could predict what would have happened after that.

They could see that they had done a terrible deed, that they had poured out their wrath on a frivolous elf and had her foe returned with grace.

They could also see that the ideas that had been passed down to them were wrong.

The elves who were saved by Rencia’s drug, and among all the elves in the village, the story about him spread quickly.

All the elves in the village began to feel her guilt and sorry for her Rencia.

The elves recognized their fault, so they searched her land to seek her forgiveness from her Ren’cia.

But she could not find her, and her rumors were not heard.

Her Sylphid also wanted to see her, so she used the flow of her wind to search for her Rencia, but even her Elemental King, Sylphid, could not find her.

Her Lencia’s existence was completely wiped out from the ground.

“We’ve done her a mistake and hurt her so badly that it won’t go away.”

“……”

Hoya, who was guided to Warin’s house and drank tea, could not open his mouth even after his story was over.

From the appearance of Lencia she had seen normally, it did not seem that such a thing would have happened at all.

Because she was always bright and confident.

“… Hoya, it’s a shameful story… Can you deliver her apology to her Ren Xia? With her words that her village is waiting for her as well.”

[The quest ‘Regret of the Elves’ has been created.][The Regrets of the Elves]

The elves of Yggdrasil live with the guilt of their past mistakes of not trusting the best warriors of the elves and even exorcising them.

It’s a mistake that can’t be washed away in her lifetime, but the elves want her only to give her an apology.

Please deliver the apologies of the elves to Rencia.

Completion Requirements: Tell Rencia the story of the elves.

Success Reward: Increase in favorability of the elves in the village of Yggdrasil, experienceFailure penalty: none

“…I can tell you, but I can’t guarantee the consequences of that.”

“It’s just something I’m grateful for.”

Warin’s expression seemed somewhat refreshed, perhaps because of the thought that their apology was finally delivered to Rencia after a long time has passed.

The one-hour appointment with Bek-Seol was almost coming, so Hoya said hello to Wo-in and was about to leave his house.

However, when he saw an elf coming in with the door slammed open at the right time, his steps stopped.

“Lencia…?”

Lencia was standing there.

Why are you here?

Listening to Warin, wasn’t it impossible to come to the village?

“You! It’s you! The human being friends with Lencia!”

“……who?”

When I heard the voice, it wasn’t Rencia.

However, an elf who looks exactly like Rencia.

Oh, please….

“Elysia, calm down.”

“War-in, be quiet!”

“……Yes.”

Through the conversation that followed, Hoya could see that the woman in front of her was Rencia’s mother.

No matter how slow an elf’s aging rate is…

Well, I can’t believe they’re twins.

Elysia has asked Hoya how Rencia is doing.

Hoya was forced to repeat the same story he had told Sylphid yesterday.

“I’m glad… I’m really glad… Hehehe.”

“That… just calm down.”

Destroying the village with that Kraus every day… No, it just felt awkward to wear the face of a fighting Rencia and cry like her Sylphid.

Elysia stopped her tears immediately, wondering if patting her back as she had done to her Sylphid worked.

“Sigh… I’m sorry, I showed a bad side. This is Elysia, the mother of Rencia.”

“Oh, my name is Hoya.”

After finishing her brief, she took Hoya to her house, saying that Elysia has something to ask her.

What Elysia had taken out of her warehouse room was an old bow.

“This is the bow my husband, that is, Rencia’s father, used to use. Originally, I was going to give it to you after the ceremony was over… but that child went without a ceremony. Could you deliver it on my behalf?”

“I’ll definitely tell you.”

Hoya, who received the bow from Elysia, who was smiling sadly, hurriedly headed to the meeting place.

There, everyone except Hoya had already gathered and waited for him.

“Ah! Hoya-sama!”

“Forgive me for being late.”

They gathered in one place and started talking about what they found in the elven village.

Elven villages were no different from human villages except that they were friendly to nature, but there were a few things that stood out.

Instead of unusually high accuracy and attack power, there were bows with strict wearing restrictions and arrows with at least twice as high attack power as normal bows.

Perhaps it is the influence of the recipes that Rencia left behind, it is said that excellent potions are also being traded at low prices.

Even the elves have now come to realize that nature is not just a being to be protected and supported, but rather a relationship of giving and receiving with them.

“I was selling these things for the price of a basic potion!”

[Yggdrasil’s Healing Potion]

A potion made by an elf living in the village of Yggdrasil.

The effect is excellent because it inherited the recipe left by the elves who had excellent skills in alchemy.

Recovers 30% of HP and MP in an instant when taken.

‘Wow…….’

Hoya was a little surprised when he saw the potion that Joong-ki had placed in his hand.

Even if the recovery amount exceeds 20%, it is treated as a very precious potion.

If it were to be circulated outside, it would be a huge topic of discussion.

“Well, if it’s a pity, there is a limit of purchasing 10 potions per day, including all types of potions.”

“If you can purchase indefinitely, buy it.”

“The spirits said that they could warp us here, so wouldn’t it be okay to listen to it every day to build a good affinity with us, Princess? The elves were also pretty friendly to us.”

I signed a contract with the spirit as a reward for the dungeon cleared over two days.

It was the first time I had set foot in the village of elves and had my face painted.

Even high-performance potions can now be obtained.

This alone was a great harvest, but they had one harvest left.

“Then, can I upload a video of this?”

“Yes, as long as you edit it, it doesn’t matter.”

“Huh, huh, if you still make money, Hoya will divide by 5 and we will divide by 5 as the first condition! Please call the account later. Oh, or will I give you gold?”

From the scene of opening the door that appeared in the tree to enter the dungeon ‘Elves’ Coming-of-Age Ceremony’ to entering the village of elves, everyone left behind a video.

We have already made arrangements in advance for editing and selling the video.

There was only one condition that Hoya wanted.

His own character not appearing in the video.

As long as you keep it, it doesn’t really matter if you sell the video.Hoya promised to reveal the account to Bek-Seol later.

She wasn’t particularly greedy for her money, but she needed something to reassure her so that her Ye-sook Lee could spend her time on herself.

* * *

“this is…….”

“Lencia’s mother asked me to deliver it.”

Lencia’s eyes fluttered slightly as she looked down at the bow placed on her table.

Lenching her hands slowly over her bow, Lencia stroked her bow with a gentle hand, as if caressing her baby.

Hoya explained to her all the stories she had heard in her elven village, the words she had asked them to tell, her Sylphid wants to meet her, and the reasons why she was able to go there.

Then she remembered the message that she had completed the quest.

Longing and bitterness were mixed in Lencia’s smile as she listened to her story.

“That’s right… I’m glad that her mother seems to be okay.”

“This is from Sylphid.”

The thing Hoya put on the table was the same key that Hoya used to enter the dungeon ‘Elves coming-of-age test’.

Taking her key, Lencia nodded her head slightly.

“…Yeah, I’ll have to go at least once.”

I didn’t know that Sylphid was worried like that.

She could have met Sylphid if she had just wanted to meet her.

But Lencia did not go to see Sylphid.

She thought she would still be an enemy to the elves.

She thought she would not treat her as her Elemental King if her other elves found out that Sylphid maintained her acquaintance with herself.

So I avoided her for the sake of her Sylphid.

Not a single step was taken out of this distorted space.

Her non-meeting was the thing for her, she thought.

But I guess she wasn’t.

She was acting for Sylphid, but she was not at all like Sylphid.

The reason her Sylphid handed her this key to herself via Hoya is probably the meaning of her asking her to contract with her on her final exam site.

After clearing the test, it is the village of Yggdrasil, the village of elves…

The time has come for her to keep her promise to Sylphid, Lencia thought.

…… Her desire to see her healthy mother again was her biggest reason.

She and she thought that if the elves were so remorseful and she was putting what she had left to good use, she could go to the village at least once.

It’s unclear how she will deal with them when she actually meets them.

“Thank you so much for this.”

[Lencia’s favorability has increased significantly.]
