In the presence of the elders they suddenly lashed out their fury.
"Elementor! What do you have to say for yourself!?"
"...."
"Speak!!"
I was already in another world and yet I had managed to cause unnecessary trouble. I didn't even know what to say. The elders were filled with rage and anger.
Why were they so angry?
Did I do something wrong?
"We have suffered while you were gone, and you suggest to reveal yourself now, how many people had died hoping for your return?"
"...…."
"Why are you in that ridiculous form? You are a god , for Elemenia's sake look like one."
"...…"
I was afraid to reply to the elders, because If I had spoke one wrong word they would have had me executed.
Despite having fear I somehow found the courage to speak and state my name and explanation.
"…My name Is Dan Lauren, I apologize but I do not know what you speak of, I'm not the Elementor and I had just arrived on this world…"
"NONSENSE!!"
"...…"
"You think you can fool us with your excuses!?"
"...…"
"You have committed treason among our land, and for that you will be exiled, you may only return here when you are ready to speak the truth!"
"...…"
"NOW BE GONE!!!"
The maid quickly escorted me out. Outside the palace the townspeople glared at me with an intent to kill. They really hated me or I would say that they really hated the Elementor. People then began to throw objects and food at me out of disgust and anger.
What had I done to deserve this kind of treatment?
Why were the elders so angry with the Elementor?
What can I do to fix this?
While walking my way out of town, I suggested to take a dark alleyway in order to hide and avoid the public eye.
In the alley I crossed paths with a mysterious old man wearing a black and blues cloak around his whole body. It looked similar to the ones that the soldiers were wearing.
Could he be a Lord or general?
"Young man are you perhaps lost?"
"No…I was hoping to find my way out of town."
"hmm…I see."
"I should be going now."
"Hmm… that mark on your hand … could you be …the Elementor?"
"Uh….no…I'm not."
If I had confirmed to be the Elementor, I would have only cause more trouble for myself than I already have.
"Hahahaha..."
The old man chuckles as he heard my response.
"Young man, would you mind accompanying me to my temple outside of town?"
"No….thank you, but I think I would rather be alone for quite some time…"
"...."
The old man paused for a short moment
What was on his mind?
"…Do you want to know more about this world and the Elementor….Young Dan..?"
What!!
I was in shock of how did the old man know my name, and how did he know that I just arrived into this world. I began to be cautious of him, but on the other hand this was my only chance to know more about this world and the Elementor, that why were they treating me like I did something wrong?
I decided to accompany the old man to his temple. We left the town and we journeyed through the forest and then climbed up a mountain full of dangerous monsters and creatures that were capable to kill us.
....
After a long and dangerous travel, we at last arrived to the old man's temple.
"I welcome you to my Temple of Knowledge Young Dan."
"You said that you would give me information about this world and the Elementor, give it to me."
"I can see that you are impatient, very well come with me to the Records Archive."
He opened a huge door to a big room, inside the room contained scrolls that had every single information about the past, present and future about this world and the Elementor.
"So much knowledge…"
"Why of course Young Dan, every moment of history and events of this world is recorded and stored in these scrolls."
This was perfect, I was finally going understand the reason of the elders rage towards the Elementor.
"Here you are, this scroll contains the history of this world and the Elementor."
Without hesitation I quickly opened the scroll to start reading…, but I couldn't read it. I didn't understand this language, it was so different from my language from my world.
"I…I can't read this."
"I was afraid of this, my apologies but I will resolve this issue in an instant."
He lifted his hand and begun saying words of an incantation.
■Enhancement Magic:
With the power of the almighty Gods , I Grant this subject the ability to transcribe and reveal secrets of forbidden knowledge [[MAGICAL INSITE]]
After he casted a spell, I was now able to understand and solve hidden secrets of forbidden knowledge and I could understand this world's languages.
I took the scroll and started reading:
Once this world was filled with Elemental Magic. The magic consisted of Elemental variants of Water, Earth, Wind and Fire. This world was soon called 'Elemenia'. From this world the Elementor was an unparalleled being who protected the peace and life. He was soon called the 'God of Light'.
Elemenia was a paradise for people and living creatures, it was filled with light and hope, but eventually the universe had to balance itself, where there's light there was soon darkness. An evil force rose from the depths of the netherworld who's power equalled the Elementor's power of Elements and light. He was soon called the 'Demon of Darkness', he was the 'Shadow Lord'.
In order to protect Elemenia the battle of Good and Evil was fierce, but soon the Elementor became victorious, the Shadow Lord had finally fell...oh so we thought.
While there was peace the Elementor went on a journey far away. The peace lasted up to ten years, but eventually the Shadow Lord had risen once more. He terrorized the land and spread his evil. People wondered if the Elementor was going to return but he never returned….
The people had to defend themselves from the evil army of the Shadow Lord's followers and his evil grunts called the 'Shadow Sneakers'. The land was never safe ever again...…
"...…"
I took a moment to pause and think about all of this insaneness.
There are forces of evil that I have yet to encounter.
"…Young Dan now you understand of why we need the Elementor."
"But how could a weakling like me fight the Shadow Lord?"
"You have so much potential inside of you and I will help you to master It."
"But how?"
"I will train you Young Dan."
"Who are you really? You seem to know so much."
"I am Master Gotei, I was tasked to train all new Elementor's of the future."
I guess there was no way I could escape this.
I am the Elementor….
