"You've read Maximus' letter right…, Earthling?"
"…!" Legolas' eyes widened.
"Who are you?"
"Who am I?" ElKing looked up as he laughed, materializing another drum of beer and siphoning it all down his seemingly bottomless stomach.
"Gugugugug…!" He cackled.
"Many call me ElKing, the Lord of all Elementalists".
"I am the only Elementalist in this era to unlock all 4 main elemental affinities of fire, earth, water, and wind".
"I am the leader of the ElKing Pirates".
"All these are my identities but there is another identity that many do not know about," He looked at the human. "I was Maximus' best friend".
Legolas' eyes widened in shock, he finally understood.
He finally also understood why Maximus directed him to go meet this ridiculously powerful Super, the strongest Elementalist in the universe.
