Chereads / The Priestess of Rodona / Chapter 25 - Chapter 25

Chapter 25 - Chapter 25

When Jaana and Levin were putting out the rest of their things with their maid. Elvire dragged Falmir to look the flowers with her and ask what they are. As with his skill, he could easily tell to Elvire what the flower was and how you could use it in alchemy. 

And he has lived already so long and has worked with many different alchemists masters and has read books about alchemy. So he had a vast knowledge about different items that you could find from the world, and Elvire was using this as her advantage to learn.

Falmir was genuinely interested in the Elvire now, as she looked like she enjoyed learning new things, and it didn't even take that long to her understand and memorize the different flowers he named for her. 

He sometimes even questioned himself; he was really talking with a five years old girl.

As her vocabulary and vast knowledge and how quickly she adopted that knowledge to herself surprised even him.

Then suddenly, he heard that someone was shouting his name and saw the young lad that he was testing out earlier just came back with the lunch he went to get from the town.

"Master, master, I'm here now. Those insolent fools didn't give me a first place in the lines or said the food will take some time to get prepared. I even used your name to threaten them. Even it didn't work, but now I'm here with your lunch. Oh, is that young girl bothering you? Let me get rid of her." The young lad said, and before Falmir could do anything to protect Elvire, the young lad pushed Elvire and shouted her to leave Falmir alone.

When he saw that the girl did leave the purse, he picked up it and looked and then just laughed towards the simple purse that didn't have any value and thrown it further away to make the girl leave and said.

"You are a lucky girl today. Take your worthless purse and go and mingle with someone with your status and leave master alone, as you aren't worthy of his attention. You are lucky that you get away this easily. So take this as a warning that some people you just cannot all and be with." The young lad turned his back to Elvire and showed a proud smile towards Falmir and asked him to praise him for his actions.

Before Falmir could say anything at all and scold the lad and apologize to Elvire and her family. He felt a thick bloodlust and killing intent from behind the lad and saw that Elvire was emitting it from herself.

^Earlier from Elvire's view^

Elvire was just going to ask about one flower's name from Falmir again. When he heard someone shouting for Falmir, and she turned to look and was suddenly pushed away and lashed out by the newcomer.

She going to get up and ask from Falmir what is going on, but then sea the newcomer to pick up the precious bag that her mother gave her today and throw it away and mock Elvire's status and the bag.

When Elvire saw that something just flipped in her mind and when she saw that her precious gift from her mother was mocked and treated like that. She slowly started to turn towards the way she was before she met the priest. Where every day was a survival battle, and no one could be trusted at all.

It wouldn't be her first time killing a human, as there were many times when bandits picked up their carriage, and she had to defend it, or her previous caretakers would punish her and scold her for being useless. So even when she was just five years old, she was thought how to use a dagger, as it was the only weapon she could use in that age.

So that made her a deathly combination as no one could imagine that frail and innocent-looking little girl would suddenly lung towards you with a dagger.

So now the young lad did flip that switch inside of Elvire, and even he was starting to feel Elvire's intention that was directly pointed at her.

When he turned towards Elvire, he saw how she picked up her precious bag and looked at him, and if a look could kill, he would have been dead countless times already.

"You touched the precious bag that I got from my mother," Elvire said and ripped part of her shirt off from her sleeves.

Even Levin and Jaana could feel the bloodlust and killing intent, and when they looked where it was emitting from, they saw it was from their precious daughter, and they hurriedly did run towards her, but they and Falmir were too late. 

As Elvire already did pick a rock and quickly made a makeshift sling from the ripped part of her clothing and flung it forwards the young lad who had already unable to move from the fear and there was a wet spot in his pants already.

Luckily Elvire was so small, and she couldn't muster much of a force, but still, there was the advantage of being small, and the stone hit the young lad's private parts, and that accident did leave scars on the young lad's memories and lifetime trauma towards the woman.

When Elvire was done, she suddenly collapsed on the ground, and Jaana quickly picked her up and checked if she was alright and sighted from a relive when she saw that Elvire just did use too much energy and collapsed from fatigue.

At the same time, Levin asked Falmir what happened when they were away from her and what made Elvire release the killing intent.

When Falmir started to explain the situation to Levin and Jaana, they both smiled and were quite proud of their daughter as she called Jaana a mother and appreciated the gift she gave her. Jaana gave a smug smile towards Levin, showing that she won this round and gave Elvire to Levin and went to look the young lad and heal his injuries even when she didn't want to.

Falmir looked this unusual family and sighed and thought inside of his kind shouldn't they be worried about their daughter and not proud as she would have easily killed a man in that situation if she would have little more strength and accuracy.

He just left the couple and went to help their maid to pick the forest of their stuff, as it would be least he could do to help them and apologize to them.

When Jaana saw the young lads situation, she just snickered as her daughter just made a man impotent now, and she thought that the young lad deserved it.

She slowly did heal him but didn't do anything to his important parts and just left her impotent, and when the young lad woke up and saw that it was a woman who was treating him.

He just screamed and started to run away from the park, and after that incident, Elvire and her family didn't saw the young lad anymore; not even Falmir saw him after that incident.

Some say he did become a monk and started to meditate on top of the mountain. Some stories say he did become a wandering priest, but that is another story for now.
