Child from the Dungeon

Chapter 149: Cleaning Up the Impure Part 2

" What is that, a Dark Elf? " said a figure in the forest, seeing Tania.

But as the figure says, he was thrown with a dagger in his chest for it immediately holed him, instantly making the figure dead.

" Fikiel! " said the other figure covered in the forests' shadows.

" I sense you're presence, idiots! " Tania says as she then strikes the other ones.

" Reala, deal with the others, please. " Tania says as Reala uses her [Star Spin Strike] to attack the other figures as her star magic immediately slices their heads.

" Yahoo! I defeated them, big sister! " Reala says after dismantling the heads of the figures who hide in the shadows.

As the stars strike was unleashed, the star's own light begins to shine over the forest, revealing the figures' true forms as the light unveils them.

" Oh, you guys are... " Reala says, seeing the guys they attacked are actually Elves, covered with robes, so wet as if they came from the water before they came here.

" 'Swamp Shadows' attack! " said the 'Swamp Shadows' as they attacked Reala, but before that happened.

" Guah! big sister Tania, a little- "

" Reala, focus! " Tania immediately interferes as she quickly slices and dices the attacking Swamp Shadows.

As she faces them, Tania suddenly evades an incoming fire arrow, an arrow so hot that it burns the tree it landed, after it misses her.

" So it was true, the Dark Elves is returning? " said a Flame Elf while looking after Tania.

" Wait, you! " Tania says as she looks at him.

" You're Vlikor right, the Fire Elf Archer! " Tania quickly recognize Captain Vlikor, immediately calling his name.

" You know me, Dark Elf? " Vlikor asks as he then stares, looking at Tania closely while still shooting his arrows at her.

< Rampaging Blaze Arrows >

Vlikor shoots one arrow that dispersed into many fire arrows, creating a rain of them.

< Black Shadow Dark Elf Magic, Dark Shade Strike >

Tania strikes every incoming flame of arrows, she slices it to get to Vlikor. hen slicing the flames, she angrily charges upon Vlikor, approaching his very location.

" VLIIKOR! " Tania shouts at the Flame Elf, immediately slashing him.

" Gah! " Tania gets surprised for she sees him dodging the attack by sacrificing his bow to be slashed by her dagger.

After dodging her, Vlikor then unsheathes his close-ranged weapons, some Elven Dagger that bursts out flames, a [Fladinous Dagger], a Dagger made from a Drake's Scale and Tooth, usually meant to slice and fry the enemy, a Flame Elf's primary weapon in combat.

"( [Fladinous Dagger]!!! )" Tania then evades the flaming strike, she counters the strikes with a strike of her own, using her own Dagger to be her shield, by keep attacking Vlikor's attack.

" Vlikor, you bastard Flame Elf! " Tania calls out the Flame Elves.

" I'm going to kill you, to avenge our kind's loss against your kingdom! " Tania tells Vlikor, reminding him of who she was to him.

" You... You're the Dark Elf's General...? " Vlikor says as he can't believe it.

" Tania...? " Vlikor suddenly holds himself, reminding the name long forgotten as he then suddenly remembers something from the past.

In that remembering, Vlikor and Tania clash so hard as they press the blades of their dagger onto each other, while both of them remember the past, the past where they met for the last time.

...

( In the past. )

[Validur]

A battle rages between the Flame Elves and the Dark Elves, both of their armies blast and slays each other with their weapons and magic, eliminating each other in order to achieve total victory.

" Wipe the Dark Elves out! " said the Flame Elves' army.

" Destroy the Flame Elves, don't let the Elf Emperor's cronies defeat us! " the Dark Elves' army tells the armies too.

The two factions of one race, battle each other as they destroy everything in Validur, one of the last known bastions of defense region for the Dark Elves' race.

" Be wiped out, Dark Elves! " said Vlikor as he arrows many of the soldiers.

" You are all impurities of our Race, let this fire clean your impure bloodline! " Vlikor says for he then summons his Archer Division to rain the cleansing fire arrows upon the Dark Elves, burning them.

" General Tania, take cover! " said a Dark Elf Lieutenant as he protects Tania from the shot.

" Takion! " Tania screams as Lieutenant Takion, who was around her at the time, decided to shield her from the raining arrows using his own body.

As he receives the arrows to his very body, it immediately burns him in front of Tania who was actually alone in the situation, her army is scattered due to the Flame Elves' tactic, they make the Dark Elves' army dispersed in order to root out the leaders.

Thus, Tania is only alone, making her available, even for the enemy's fodder army members to even able to strike her.

" Kukh! " Tania uses a [Dark Shield] to guard herself against the rain of attacks, using her great amount of Mana, since she's a general, she immediately uses it to survive the raining attacks, killing many of her enemies she sees.

" Dark Magic is not enough... " Tania says as she then uses a bit of the Aether Energy.

"( I received this power source from one of my journeys... )"

"( I hope this works... )" Tania says, using the Aether to create [Aether Worms]*, she uses the worms, the worms of the Aether, putting them in the battlefield to infest any enemies within range.

" What is this, worms!!!? AKH! " the 'Aether Worms' swarmed the enemy, it infested their body, transforming them into berserk and barbaric muscled elf-like creatures which had the same height as an Orc.

" GRAHHH! " the infested Flame Elves go berserk, they attacked the other Flame Elves, almost turning the tide of the battle, until more Flame Elves and their Elite Ranks begin to fire more of their magic attacks to defeat the berserk ones.

Seeing that, Tania is pinned down as she was rained from any position, giving her no openings as she could only run while saving the survivors of the attack.

" Fall back! " Tania screams to her remaining army, she tells them to retreat.

When she tries to leave, an arrow stabs her shoulder.

" Kahh! " Tania screamed in pain, she then sees who shots it.

" Vlikor... " Tania says, knowing the name of the Flame Elves who shot her, she knows him before, from the previous wars.

As she sees him, Vlikor rains more arrows at her while she runs away, in defeat.
