"Humans, you will pay for it if you don't leave us alone, our queen would turn your whole race into our slaves," Pointing her sword at Lydia, the leader of the dark elves threatened.
She just wanted to prolong their talk until she can find a way to escape from this situation so she started muttering bullshit.
"Our queen isn't merciless as your cunt goddess, she is the real goddess, not your invisible one," Lydia already saw through her plan because of how restless her opponent's eyes are.
"You can't escape, we already surrounded this whole area, the moment you take a little distance from me, my girls will shoot you," Lydia warned her bringing more despair into her already broken mind pointing at the stationed archers.
"Noo! I won't die here, No," Seeing she has no way out of this, she decided to kill the woman in front of her as quickly as possible even if she had to sacrifice one of her body parts.
Taking the sword back, she took an unconventional stance while looking at Lydia with a strange gaze.
ραпdα Йᴏνê|(сòm) "I will kill you," Shouting at her with anger, the dark elf leader charged in like a monster expecting to kill Lydia.
"Reckless, no stance, no fluidity, just charging in with rage," Observing her opponent carefully, Lydia waved her sword showing how elegant her moves are.
Their swords collided with sparks flying from the impact.
"See, you are foolish, you dark elves only know how to kill us with your vile magic," While she was blocking her with one hand, she quickly took something like a dagger that was hidden in her clothes.
All of this happened within 10 seconds, her opponent didn't even have time to react even after seeing her trying to grab something.
"You lack everything needed for a warrior, what a letdown," Looking at her with disgusted eyes, Lydia pierced her neck with her hidden dagger.
Nobody expected their leader to fall so quickly without any effort.
Since most of them suffered damage from the ranged weapons, their performances were so low that even Nym could kill one or two if she had a sword but Alva didn't allow her to fight as she was forced to hide near some bushes.
The whole battlefield was dominated by Nikol and the girls while dark elves looked like prey waiting to be hunted.
Nikol himself with his newfound power killed so many dark elves brutally. They feared fighting him when they saw him twisting their friend's body parts like normal twigs.
"We won, kill all the dark elves don't leave anyone, don't let them escape," Since Lydia didn't want any reinforcement helping them she decided to kill everyone.
The battle cries and wailing of the dark elves dominated the whole battleground for a few minutes until the whole place became a blood bath.
"Nikol, use your sword while fighting why are you fighting barehand?" Confused, Alva asked while wiping his body and arms.
She acted more like a faithful housewife right after the battle ended as she came with a towel to clean him. Emily did the same thing as she brought her own towel to clean him.
"Alva, Emily, are you okay? Did anyone get injured?" Worried about them, Nikol questioned.
"We are ok, these dark elves are so weak when their cursed magic doesn't work," Emily answered him with a smile.
Unlike Nikol, they didn't even have many blood stains on their clothes since they used sharp swords to cleanly cut their opponent.
"Two or three girls got injured but the majority are ok," Alva stood up answering him.
"Good, let's go and see the kids, they must be scared because of all this," Thinking about how they are going to deal with these kids, Nikol quickly asked others to follow him.
He hinted Nym to come since she was familiar with some kids from the elf race.
"Good girl, you hid just like we asked you to, now follow us don't step on these corpses," Hearing his words, she freaked out a little.
Seeing all these bodies lying on the floor with blood splattered everywhere, she knew this wasn't something she could stomach.
Nym felt like puking but she resisted the urge as she didn't want to bring any more problems to the others.
"Lydia, are you okay? Did you get injured?" Seeing Lydia checking all the dead bodies, Nikol questioned.
"I'm ok, I was just checking whether they are pretending to be dead," Seen no one responding to her sword poking, she quickly went to see Nikol and the group.
She advised all the injured to get treated while others followed the group to see all the kids.
"I'm pretty sure, they will get scared of us because of these blood and weapons," Lydia ordered them to hide their weapons while talking with the kids.
They slowly got close to the big cage-like structure where some kids kept shouting for help.
"Help me, mommy!"
"Queen!"
Most of them were crying their eyes out since they knew they won't have a great time with these dark elves.
"I feel bad for them, quickly break this lock," Alva ordered while looking at the cage.
Hearing something outside their cage, some kids started to freak out even more. As soon as Lydia broke the lock with her sword, the first thing that invaded this cage was sunlight.
"They don't even have space to breathe, shitty dark elves," Nikol quickly took a peek inside since he wanted to see whether these kids had any injuries.
"Who are you?" Seeing Nikol and his group not having long ears, some of the kids were curious.
Even though younger kids kept crying since they thought they are going to get hurt by them, a few kids talked with Nikol.
"We are your friend, believe us, we rescued you from these dark elves," Hearing his words, even the youngest stopped crying for a minute.
"Is that true? But you guys are not elves," They were confused since they haven't seen a human in their lifetime.
"We are not elves, we are humans," Alva came forward with a smile.
Seeing her face some kids started to cry again making her even more surprised and sad.
"Haha, Looks like they don't want to see your orc face," Emily said as a joke but Alva took it seriously as they started to fight again.
"Stop you two, this isn't the time," Lydia said with a strict tone in her voice making both of them go silent.
Nikol again looked at the elf kids who were looking at everything with curiosity.
"Anyway, all of you are safe now, close your eyes and come outside we will talk somewhere else," He didn't want any reinforcement to find them so he thought about taking these kids.
"No," Unlike what Nikol expected they refused to come out.
"What do we do, Nikol? We can't force them," Alva didn't know how to deal with kids so she had no idea what to do.
In midst of all this Nym suddenly came forward with her normal awkward look.
"Can you kids come down? We won't harm you I promise," Nym talked expecting that they would at least listen to her.
She thought that these kids feared Nikol and the group because they had blood patches on their clothes.
"Forest ghost!" One of the kids shouted with a happy smile gaining others' attention.
"What?" Nym was confused but after taking a good look at these kids she knew some of these kids were familiar to her.
"Forest ghost! I knew you were a ghost," Others had no idea what they were talking about but Nym and Nikol knew.
"Come out with your eyes closed everyone, let's talk somewhere else," Even though some hesitated, most of them listened to Nym's words while getting out of the carriage with their eyes close.
The eldest one was suspicious about why they asked her to close her eyes so she took a peek only to be repulsed by what she saw.
"These people are good, if our kids saw this they would surely be traumatized," She thought while averting her eyes.
She felt like crying but she held it in as she didn't want others to panic and open their eyes because of her.
They walked for a few minutes until they completely left the area where they confronted dark elves.
"Open your eyes, girls," Nikol said while taking a seat on a huge rock.
One by one elf girls opened their eyes only to look at everyone around them curiously, especially since they were panicked at first they couldn't take a closer look but now they saw Nym and Nikol and everyone else.
"Are you all ghosts?" Looking at them, one of the elf kids questioned with a curious look.
"We are not ghosts, we are humans, don't you know about us?" Alva spoke while looking at their ears with a curious look.
"Humans? Never heard! Are you guys going to eat us?"
Nikol laughed seeing their innocent and cute behaviour.
"We won't, we will handover you over to your mothers, can we meet them before we go back?" Nikol asked with a gentle look.
"Yey! We won't be eaten," They didn't even answer Nikol as they started to celebrate it.
The eldest girl was still cautious, Nikol noticed she was the most mature one among this group so he decided to discuss things with her.
She looked like a middle schooler compared to other kids but still, she was a kid.
"Why did you believe Nym when she told you to come out?" Nikol questioned since he was confused.
She looked at Nikol for a few minutes before opening her mouth to answer him.
"I don't know, her presence feels comfortable it's the same feeling we get from our queen," Her answer made Nikol even more confused.
