After hearing Elvis's explanation about why they have fallen into such an unfortunate situation, Leo's face quickly turned from being serious to those of a mocking.
"So you mean to say that if we didn't save you just now you would have become a sex-slave?" Leo said before letting out a chuckle.
In front, Ethan, Elaine, and their men were also trying their best to hold their laughter.
"Hehehe," Elvis scratched his head while wearing a wry smile on his face.
So what happened was, after their group left that village beside the Emerald Forest three days ago, Elvis then immediately gathered his people to return to Emerald Tree Kingdom as they decided to change the location of their job operation due to the Emerald Event.
For Information Dealer like Elvis, events such as the Emerald Event were a great source of income. Simply put, it's a big business opportunity for them. After all, a lot of participants would like to know some information about where powerful Magical Beasts live so as to gain more points. There would also be a lot of people that would want to know a detailed report about their potential opponents and related stuff.
Elvis and his group, specifically called Night Ears, a group with a total of 20 people, joined a merchant caravan that was on its way to the Emerald Tree Kingdom. Of course, as an Information Dealer group, they already knew that this merchant caravan was just a normal one with nothing suspicious. In fact, the cause of their unfortunate situation wasn't the merchant caravan.
The road that they followed to travel towards the Emerald Tree Kingdom was also the road that the majority of the traveler used as it was a relatively safe road. Hence, they already knew what kind of danger they would most likely be going to encounter.
However, when they were finally only a few kilometers away from the Emerald Tree Kingdom, they encountered a group made up of hundreds or so of people. To be more precise, they have more people compared to the merchant caravan.
It wasn't the least bit surprising to be surrounded, since a situation like this does indeed happen from time to time in the Emerald Forest. The thing that surprised them instead was that these people were actually the natural enemy of the Elves, specifically the Slave Hunters.
The reason why Slave Hunters are the natural enemy of Elves is simply because they are considered as one of the most profitable products. Most of the people who like to buy slaves, in particular those people that are looking to have 'fun', would always choose to buy Elves. No other reason aside from that they are gorgeous and are very attractive.
Their situation was really surprising since Slave Hunters don't normally hunt for their targets in any places with a lot of people, especially nearby the capital city of that territory, which in this case is the Emerald City. It's simply because after successfully capturing their targets, they would still need to head on a journey towards where they would sell them to Slave Merchants. During that journey, they don't want a lot of people to see them, because there are also people that hunt for Slave Hunters, specifically the Bounty Hunters.
Though Elvis and his Night Ears group easily realized the reason why the Slave Hunters became daring enough to hunt for targets in nearby places with a lot of people.
The reason is the Emerald Event...
Information Dealers weren't the only people who think that events like Emerald Event are a big business opportunity for them. The Slave Hunters also have the same opinion. After all, basically, all the participants in the Emerald Event are putting the Magical Beasts that they have caught in cages before bringing them to the respective cities in Emerald Tree Kingdom, hence seeing another group of people pulling cages nearby wouldn't cause any suspicion.
Moreover, with the majority of the people in the Emerald Tree Kingdom participating in the Emerald event, it's already within expectations that it would be very chaotic. People wouldn't bother with other people, as they are all busy trying to catch as many Magical Beasts as possible in order to become one of the top 100, hence claiming a prize and becoming qualified to join the main event Emerald Elven Battle Competition.
Elvis and his Night Ear group easily arrived at the conclusion that this situation is almost similar to how the situation of hunters and hunted would unexpectedly be reversed from the hunters becoming the hunted and the hunted becoming the hunters. Simply put, the participants of the Emerald Event had become the targets of the Slave Hunters, just like how the participants target the Magical Beasts.
The merchant caravan was quickly surrounded by the hundreds or so of Slave Hunters.
That wasn't yet the end. The worst part is since they have joined a merchant caravan, there would naturally be a lot of Merchants in this group. And Merchants are basically the main customers of Slave Hunters, hence they weren't included in their list of targets, but on the condition that they would cooperate to let them easily capture those that aren't a part of their group.
Without any resistance, the Merchants quickly ordered their men to push forward those that aren't originally part of their merchant caravan and stay at the side.
Elvis and his Night Ear group were naturally included in that, but they don't blame the Merchants, it's understandable for them to react in such a way as they regard the safety of their group first more than the others.
But of course, it doesn't mean that Elvis and his Night Ear group, and also the other people that weren't originally part of the merchant caravan, can't fight back to also save themselves.
That's why, as soon as the Merchants stepped at the side, the battle immediately began.
Elvis and his Night Ear group fought against the Slave Hunters side by side while slowly moving towards the less guarded location in the formation of Slave Hunters.
Unfortunately, with these groups of Slave Hunters' years of experience in capturing people, they of course wouldn't easily let Elvis and his Night Ear group escape.
Because of that, Elvis and his Night Ear group were left with no other choice but to force their way out, causing a few of them to get captured in the process.
To be honest, Elvis and his Night Ear group were considered as a group made up of strong people, specifically, their members are 3 Star to 6 Star level, that's why they were accepted to join in that merchant caravan in the very first place. But because of their numerical disadvantage, although they indeed succeeded in forcing their way out, it still wasn't considered as enough to successfully escape.
That's the reason for their unfortunate situation right now because they were relentlessly being hunted down until there were only five of them that remained. The rest were either killed or captured.
"Jokes aside," Leo stopped himself from chuckling as he balled his right hand and then rested his head on top before saying, "Do you have any slight idea or information about the name of that Slave Hunter group?"
After hearing that Elvis and his Night Ear group were attacked by a Slave Hunter group, it was now time to know whether that Slave Hunter group was something they could handle or not.
"I know..." One of the members of the Night Ear group currently laying on the stretcher said.
"Go on," Leo said as he turned to look at that Elf.
"During our escape... I noticed that this Slave Hunters have a dog tattoo on their arms... So, if I am not mistaken... then those people should be part of the Wolf Howl organization..."
Leo soon after turned to look at Elvis and asked, "Wolf Howl organization?"
"Well," Elvis paused as he heaves a long sigh, obviously to express that their current situation isn't looking that great for them. To be honest, just now he could have actually lied to Leo by denying that assumption, but he quickly realized that even if he was given another chance to answer that question, he would certainly choose to tell them the truth. Although he is an Information Dealer and someone that works in the Underground World, he still has his own principles and knows how to repay kindness with kindness.
Elvis explained, "I will not be hiding anything from you as I'm really grateful that you have saved us from those Long Fang Wolves."
"So, to cut the explanation short and also the most important part that you deserve to know, is that the Wolf Howl organization is the second most powerful organization in the Underground World of the Emerald Tree Kingdom."
"The name of their President is Sigfried, a peak 9 Star level Mage. He is an extremely famous individual in the Underground World of the Emerald Tree Kingdom as someone ruthless and heartless. To give you an example, he wouldn't even spare an innocent little girl from his bed."
"The members of their Wolf Howl organization are in the 3 Star to 5 Star level, numbering to tens of thousands of people. They have 10 Elders, all of them in the 6 Star level, and two Vice-presidents, which both are in the 7 Star level."
"Their Wolf Howl organization are well-known to never spare anyone that dares to offend them, except for one; those people that belongs in the most powerful organization in the Underground World of the Emerald Tree Kingdom, Evergreen Shadow organization." Elvis finished explaining.
"Is that all?" Leo asked as he smiled mischievously.
"What do you mean, "Is that all"? Don't tell me you don't think that they are dangerous?" Elvis doubtfully replied.
"Well," Leo turned to look at Ethan.
Seeing Leo's look, Ethan quickly understood what to do.
Whoooosh!
"A... a 1st Galaxy Mage...?!" Elvis immediately became dumbfounded as soon as he felt Ethan's Magic power. He slowly turned to look at Leo, who he soon saw was just smiling mischievously while looking at him.
"There, you got your answer," Leo said while pointing his finger at Ethan.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
