pov Rudy
after we got what we wanted. we let the two come out from the cell. but my surprised, the two didn't left and right now this guys are eating our food with us.
"miss Tasha, more please."
"didn't I told you to go home?!"
"but miss Tasha, we are poor girl who has nothing in our pockets. you didn't want us to be eaten by wolves right?"
"like I care?!"
looking at the two. I glance a the woman in front of me who was drinking a coffee without caring.
"you sure are careful captain."
unlike the enemies I confronted before. this woman has no fear and even have a courage to eat with me.
thinking back then, I miss those days in the battlefield.
"it's not like that. you see we are in the middle of the woods and this area was not ordinary."
"hmm? really?"
"yeah, this woods was homed by rank 5 monsters. not only that. those monster was stronger than us without a steel knight."
the steel knights they talking about was just the new version of knights. unlike the knights like us. this steel knights was operated by the pilot itself.
for years there was higher casualties of knights dying in the hands of the enemies like orc. this makes many of the people to be considered if they leaders really wants to throw the lives of the people.
which bring the talented people to invented the steel knights. this invention was high precise by the people and many of the soldiers required the steel knights.
this makes me wonder what happened to the actual knights.
holy knights like me need to prove themselves to be the gods champion. if a knight became a champion he will be giving a blessing by the gods.
not only that. champion have a rights to choose the second god to worship,
for us, the gods who gave there blessings can destroyed a army alone if it added a another blessings. there are unstoppable in the battlefield.
while it's true that knights have a high rate of casualties. there fruits of labor will be earned once the gods notice your strong will.
"I see so in other words you guys are weak."
when I said those words. captain Tina stop sipping the coffee and look me with a frown.
obviously those kinds of gazes won't work on me since I already have a fare share in the battle.
"you guess was correct so we both couldn't return so I have a request for you."
as she put down the cup. I can guess what will she wanted to ask.
"please send us back with you as our escort."
....
pov tina.
as I look at him with serious expression. this man remain silent as he was folding his arms.
I don't know what kind of tricks he use to defeat a 10 meter tall steel knight alone but I can tell his strong.
the reason why I ask him to become our escort was to introduce him to the general.
if I make this man joined the general's group. we can get a powerful allied in our rank.
"okay I might agreed to your request but what about her or rather us?"
as he pointed the his partner. I couldn't help but turned my face into sour.
many of the people has strong disliking for the elves and I don't what kind of person he was but I can feel that once the army saw them they'll just attack him.
thinking about this, I might not get him to our group and will be remain in this forest.
as I want to say more, I heard a small laughing in the trees.
"hehehe..... I never thought I met four people here."
as I turned around. I saw 6 people in the top tree. if they our allied I might me smiled for relief but I think that's impossible.
six elves was looking at his with murderous gaze. they are equip with power suit and a powerful weapon.
looking at their appearance, I can guess they came here to infiltrate the base.
"mind if you guys wants to talk to us a bit?"
as the elf ready there weapons. Tasha walk towards us and went to Rudy.
when the elf saw Tasha all of them frown and spoke.
"you elf what are doing here? no who are you? I never saw you before or rather your different from us."
unlike Tasha, this elves has dark skin and white hair. this type of elves was the same elves we hate for years.
when Tasha look at her counter part. I can see the displeasure in her eyes.
"a corrupted elves?"
when she said those words. I couldn't help wonder what she means but Rudy took a hammer out of nowhere.
"hmph, I think it's best if we interrogate this corrupted elves."
"agreed."
after there conversation was ended. the trees on the feet move it's branches.
this make the 6 of them to surprised and some of the got captured.
"what is this?! why I can move."
"you?! what did you do?!"
the captured elves could move no matter how they tried to struggle and the other elves who escaped drew there weapons.
"I don't know what kind of tricks you did but you will pay of this."
as the elf charge Rudy. he didn't move from his position and only watch but when the sword was swing at him.
he got the blade with his two fingers.
"hmph, to think that this corrupted elves can only do this was truly sad."
bang.
Rudy kick the elf with his full might and crashing to the other side.
the other elf who saw his friend scream in hatred.
"you will pay for this?!"
"no, you guys are weak so sleep for a little bit."
bang.
Rudy hit the other elf with his hammer and caught the other one with his bare hand.
"now let's begin our little chit chat."
after defeating six of them. I ask Tasha who was standing next to me.
"miss Tasha can I ask why you called them corrupted elves?"
looking at her with curiously. she said in a very cold tone.
"corrupted elves was the former elves who worship the devil. they throw themselves to the devil and abandoned the holy trees will."
I don't know what is the holy tree but I can guess it was so important to them and Tasha continued.
"we call the corrupted elves because they wants to cause chaos but there was also another called for and it was called-"
as I listen to her, Rudy spoke as he gripping the elf's neck.
"dark elf what's your business to us?"
"arck?!!"
as he scream in pain, another explosion was came to the other side.
as I look who is the other group. I couldn't help but to surprised.
"target confirm."
"the hostage was here but there also six elf here too."
the people who came was from division 34. my former comrades and also our rescuers.
