Eren was angry, but he tried not to show his tired and weak side. Eren could feel that this Alexen douchebag was very strong. If Emily hadn't crossed the Level 50 limit recently, the entire village would have been defenseless.
"If you try to take even one step into this village, the punishment will be severe."
But after he told these words, a great disdain showed up on Alexen's face.
"Hey. You are now in a sanctuary. No one can enter unless the owner of the area gives permission. Are you too retarded to realize how precious the village you live in is?"
Eren looked at Emily in surprise. With the girl shaking her head, he learned something else she didn't know.
"If the heart of our village did not allow it, you would never have been able to enter. Maybe you could get in because Evon saw you as a creature, but this human could never get in. Because I am the one authorized by the heart of the village. The day I met you, I thought you were harmless. And I gave an absolute command to the heart to let you in."
That's when Eren felt some stones fall into place. From the first day he came to this village, he had not been able to understand the importance of the small tree in the middle of the village.
Because Evon gave every creature the freedom to use the stats they gained when they leveled up. So no one was as dependent on that tree as it is exaggerated.
The most important thing in the village shouldn't be a tiny tree, but the life of the living elves. Still, all the elves he talked to in the village were constantly talking about how important the tree was.
Elves didn't need that tree, except for things like learning skills and choosing a class. At least that's why Eren thought that way.
This village was named "the 31st Start Zone" on this planet. Are there such totems in the center of other regions?
Without wasting any more time, Alexen raised his hand in the air and whispered something quietly. Twenty seconds later, a huge ball of fire appeared in the air.
"But don't trust the pathetic totem of this village too much, human. When I manage to get inside, I will skin you first!"
Alexen waited for the huge ball of fire to grow in the air, and with a quick flick of his hand, he let it shoot up at Emily and Eren.
It looked like a huge fiery meteor in the air. The fact that something that didn't exist just seconds ago seemed so realistic changed Eren's view of magic in this universe.
With great speed and momentum, the fireball advanced to Eren's side, who was caught off guard. Just as the two sitting on the ground were about to flee, an invisible barrier appeared. As the fireball hit, there was a huge explosion.
The ground shook and the earth and dust created chaos. For the first time in his life, Eren felt the earthquake shaking so clearly as he witnessed the earth shaking under his feet.
But he was relieved to see the colorless barrier of the village appearing before them. It would be disastrous for such a spell to be cast on the village.
But contrary to their expectations, there was destruction on the other side of the barrier. A huge crater was formed and burned in an area of tens of meters. All the surrounding plants were on fire.
Angrily, Emily grabbed the bow from her back. She was thinking of punishing Alexen with a fast wind arrow, which she constantly used while hunting wolves. Emily knew several hunting methods to catch the wizard Alexen off guard.
But when the dust and smoke in the air calmed down, they did not see the blond-haired bandit.
"Why didn't he fight us?" Emily was very innocent in some respects.
"Probably the scumbag Alexen came to test whether there really is a barrier, or how strong it is. If it wasn't for me in the first place, he would have tricked you into getting himself in. Then he would either burn the village totem or neutralize you and conquer the village.
But now he's walked away as his plan didn't work. Soon, he will further anger the creatures of the forest and have them attack the village."
"What did you mean by deceiving me? Am I stupid!"
Emily pouted. But her facial expression, which would have looked sweet if her whole body hadn't been covered in blood, looked a little frightening at that moment. But she didn't get too angry with Eren, who was stroking her bloody hair like a little puppy.
They'd probably have fooled me like a little kid if it wasn't for Eren. Huuh...(sigh)
The two entered their house after telling the frightened Elves from the village that it was okay. They had time to sleep for a few hours until morning.
Eren didn't feel happy at all because it was Monday.
After a battle like this, staying in bed with Emily for days on end and having non-stop sex would have been a more fitting reward.
"I hate Mondays."
..
Only a few hours ago, Eren had seen a pack of wild beasts attack an elven village. After suffering a huge monster invasion, the first person to come across in a magical world was a vile thug. Someone who probably has bad plans in mind.
Now he had come to work in the quiet city life on Earth. He felt a headache as he looked at the budget chart in front of him and the complaints about some orders.
He was very confused as he looked at the tea on his table. When he first went to Evon a few months ago, he had imagined that he would change faster and that his life would become more exotic.
Of course, it felt good to be with a sexy blonde elf for hours every day, make no mistake. He would never want to replace Evon with another universe if he had the chance, or have another miraculous coincidence.
Still, he thought things would be easier. Characters like him, who did nothing but Level up in the stories, were constantly getting abilities, weapons, and special powers.
But Eren had gained nothing except the ring on his right index finger and the wolf's eye ability that allowed him to see in the dark.
Even the money he earned was thanks to the gold found in the Elven village. It wasn't because of his talent or the diamonds he had obtained from the magical world.
Am I doing something wrong? Or the Universe of Evon really has an extremely nerfed and balanced system.
"Hey, boss. If you're out of tea, I'll bring you a new one." Meltem, the youngest employee in the office, called out to him from the front of the office. The blonde girl was smiling, holding the door with one hand and two teacups with the other. She was gonna give tea to the others in the office.
"I haven't finished my tea yet, don't we have any trays in the office?"
"No. There are other things we need to buy."
Eren grabbed a small piece of paper and a pen and followed Meltem to the small kitchen next door.
"Can you tell me what's missing?"
Half an hour later, Eren was out of the office and started shopping in the surrounding shops. Everyone in the office had a very important job and he didn't want to send them out during business hours. Although his left arm was injured, he wanted to be useful instead of sitting idly by.
For the past two days, he had only seen blood and brutality. It felt good to spend time among normal people now.
He went into a small shop selling kitchen tools and bought a tiny tea kettle. Eren felt very lucky when they gave him a tray as a gift.
Maybe my luck stat works even in these situations. There are talents or titles that provide discounts when shopping in books. Maybe there is something inside our body that we don't know that affects our luck and destiny.
While Eren was thinking about these issues, he was going to bump into a woman as he turned into a side street. Thanks to his body's quick reflexes, he escaped at the last moment. His Agility stat and strong body caused him to leap backward with an impossible move.
But when he saw who the woman was, Eren would have felt better if the ground had split open and he had fallen into it.
Melisa, his girlfriend whom he hasn't seen for two months.
But something very funny happened.
"Sorry."
The girl changed every direction and continued walking.
She looked at Eren's sudden movement and body. But she never looked at his face, both because of the clothes and his thin body.
Melissa seemed a little distracted and thoughtful.
So he didn't recognize me?
Eren continued to carry the bags in his right hand, even though they looked very heavy, and started walking after Melisa. Whichever street the girl went to, Eren followed.
A few minutes later, she stopped at a small cafe and met a man Eren didn't know.
Until he saw them shake hands in a formal way, Eren had an expression on his face as if he wanted to bring his sword and chop the man.
"Who is this as*hole!"
..
Eren followed them into the cafe and sat down at the table directly behind them. As soon as he put the coffee machine and other bags on the table, the people at the other table could not see him. He concentrated carefully on what Melisa and this man were talking about.
A minute later, a sweet short waiter approached.
"What would you buy?"
Eren automatically asked for hot chocolate.
"Sorry sir, we don't have any hot chocolate. But I can bring you a sweet coffee with lots of milk if you want."
"It's possible."
Eren did not understand how the chocolate ran out in such a cool cafe.
A minute later, the same waitress asked Melisa what she wanted and she asked for hot chocolate. Eren and Melisa loved to have a glass of hot chocolate at noon in open air-conditioned environments.
But something else happened that pissed off Eren. Melisa took a long, thin pack of cigarettes from her bag and lit one herself. She also wanted to give it to the man she was meeting, and the man politely refused.
She quit smoking last year. Also, they aren't lovers, yet. Is she getting ready to cheat on me?
If asked how many times he had sex with an exotic elf in different positions in the last two months, he could never answer. It was impossible for him to remember the number.
If he tried to talk about the things he did while taking a bath with Mel, his ex would probably try to blow him with a bazooka.
But now he thought the woman he hadn't called for months was cheating on him.
There was a look of great anger and possessiveness in his eyes. But after a few seconds, he was shot in the head with a bullet with what he heard.
"If you are my doctor, when should we start the check-ups next, Mr. Serkan?"
"Melisa, you can come to my private office anytime in the next two weeks. Or if you want, we can take a queue from the hospital and use an ultrasound in my room there. But we'll be in my office for the proceedings."
After the man was finished, he was silent for a few seconds and added.
"I promised your mother that I would give birth to her grandchild. I really did not expect her to call me soon. And for such a reason."
Melisa and the man met through their families. They chat about some more general topics. Then Melisa shook the doctor's hand again and paid for her coffee and left the place.
Eren also looked at the road Melisa had left, and between his legs.
"Am I becoming a father?"
Eren didn't know. He was going to lose the first child he had in his long life. Of the many he would lose, this was one of the most painful.
