4 days passed and a tired and wounded Syllia was lying on the ground.
The sun was burning bright and the plants were calmly absorbing its light.
-Is this the best you can do? If you cannot master this move until tomorrow morning I will have to find a replacement for you.
As soon as she heard that a strong force went through her legs and she jolted onto her feet. She could afford to be replaced as that most likely meant death. After 4 days she started understanding the man in front of her.
If you didn't satisfy his requirements then you will only meet death. His attitude was extremely cold when it came to his tasks and wants.
She didn't know how would a normal being master a technique in a day and a night but her survival depended on that. She got into position and started repeating the movement, again and again, until night came and passed.
In the morning when I came to check on her she was still practicing the same move, over and over. The movement was the textbook example and also fluid enough to be practical.
I smiled and congratulated her on a successful training session. And also on surviving.
...
An immense dome covered an elven village as a weird flying metal object descended into the middle square. All the stalls and buildings that stood in the way were pulverized to make space for the landing.
When the guards arrived and surrounded the object a weird laser appeared on each one's head. In the next instant, a bullet punctured their heads and made them collapse.
The door opened and a man got out and started collecting the corpses.
He made them float and piled them together next to the plane. Next, with a move of his hand clouds started gathering in the sky and rained blood everywhere. The red fluid seemed to have a mind of its own as it started seeking living beings.
Screams of terror could be heard as the man calmly walked the streets and checked each house with its magic sense.
Hmm? This house seems to be hiding something. I went inside and started scanning a more detailed picture of the house. A door was hidden under a rug, which led to a long set of stairs.
Descending the stairs brought me to a long tunnel. I tried sending a drone but the signal seemed to be disrupted after a certain distance. It seems a special array restrained the energy in that area making it an environment similar to a magicless world.
I smiled and started walking through the corridor. At the end of it was a room. After opening the poorly locked door what met me was a sword to the neck. Unfortunately for my assailant, the blade couldn't pierce the neck and was stuck in the skin. I picked the sword by the blade and shook it out of their hands.
The person was thrown on the ground and made a grunting noise. I took a look around and found 5 people were present in this room.
4 girls and a boy. The girls looked to be older by 3 years, approx 16 years older than the boy. After taking a look at each one I decided it was useless to remain here. Undeveloped brains were pretty much useless. A brain of a 400 ES elf is much more valuable than some child who didn't even train.
After exiting the house I went back to the plane and consumed all the elves who were worth something. The others were left on the streets. After boarding the plane I let it hover above the city and dropped some "gifts" for the incoming forces.
...
While I was inside the plane reading a book a loud sound and a shattered windshield announced the arrival of a weirdo on my plane.
-I found you!!!
As soon as I heard those words I understood who he was.
Oh no, this weirdo found me. I don't know how but his strength seems to be similar to mine.
He began swinging his hammer all around the main deck as he started throwing profanities at me. He looked a little heated up and, as a good friend, I threw a little acid at him, a potion that I bought from the system shop which caused a severe corrosive effect on him.
His strength surpassed mine but my speed was superior and this showed when we were exchanging blows. I was hitting him more, and this angered the pervert even more than when I teleported out of his foot's way.
A fierce fight followed in which we both got hit and threw hits back. Understanding that this fight was going nowhere I decided to do what's called a "suicide run".
I opened the system shop and bought a random tp ticked. Bombs started appearing as I also bought a paralyzing potion. With a kick to the face, I opened the bottle and threw it straight at his face.
With the plane plummeting down at high velocity and surrounded by bombs while being paralyzed it was logical to have his eyes going wild and trying to find a way out of this.
I didn't give him chances as I started stabbing him multiple times with a poisoned knife I created with the help of the system.
Before the bombs exploded I used the ticked and my body started glowing. Before I got teleported the bombs all exploded together in a huge flash that made a second sun appear in the sky.
