The Golden Bright Sun illuminated the Heavens and the Earth with its warm sunlight. The Breeze of Wind carried the Clouds within the Heavens and rustled the Leaves on the Earth. The Emerald Green Forest was brimming with peace and silence. Though within such forest, three figures silently stood as they waited for the Elven Group to speak. It was Statera, Ego, and Persia. They gazed upon the Elven Assassins as they waited for them to explain everything. They released a strange aura that distorted the air. Such action made the Elves released that they weren't joking about terminating them.
"Do you want me to force you to speak?" Persia calmly asked as the Elves in front of her shivered. One of them gulped as she walked out from the group. She was the Elven Leader who Statera managed to capture. Statera squinted her eyes as she gazed upon the Elven Leader, waiting for an explanation to come. The Elven Leader walked forward as she stood in front of the Trio. She then replied with a calm yet quivering voice.
"E-ehm, Spirits. We apologize for attacking you!" The Elven Leader bowed as Statera continued looking at her with the same face as her expression didn't change. The Elven Leader looked at the Trio as she continued her explanation. "We are the Border Assassins Squad of the Village Ava. We managed to sense strong beings entering the borders of the Village, so we got dispatch to gather Information and attack if confident enough."
"Continue..." Persia nodded as the Elven Leader gulped once again and continued. "The Village Ava is within the Forest of Pax. The Forest of Pax is within the Western Region of the Continent Debilis." The Elven Leader stopped talking as she realized the Information she was saying. She stopped her mouth from moving as she didn't want to release more Information to practically outside spirits.
"I see... Another place on the same continent. I thought that we got transported into a new world. Fortunately, we don't have to be worried about getting thrown around like some dolls." Persia sighed in relief as Statera and Ego nodded in agreement. Traveling through worlds was an intriguing Adventure though they weren't here for an Adventure. The mission was the same, and it was to complete the rite and get at the end of everything within the soul core.
"Anyway, Do you know of an Empire named Albion?" Persia asked the Elven Leader with a calm voice. The Elven Leader thought to herself about the words of Persia and nodded. The Leader then replied with a Calm voice with less quivering. "The Empire Albion is within the South of the Forest of Pax. Is that Empire where you want to go through?"
Persia shook her head and denied. "We recently passed through that place and created some trouble." The Leader raised an eyebrow as she mumbled to herself. "Trouble?" Statera and Ego smirked as the Elven Leader began looking around with a confused expression written all over her face. Persia sighed after seeing the two with the same face. Leaving any witnesses wasn't part of their original place, and unfortunately, many witnesses managed to survive.
"Is there anything we need to do to enter this village of yours?" Persia asked with a smile. She walked towards the Elven Leader and patted her shoulder. She still had the same smile though the Elven Leader knew that she wouldn't be able to do anything other than be honest in front of Persia. The Leader sighed and replied. "You can follow us if you want to."
Her Words caused the Elves around her to look at each other. They shook their head as they also reached the same conclusion as her. The Ladies in front of them were Monsters and Spirits. They also couldn't sense any hostility, which means that the Ladies weren't planning to destroy everything in their way. The Leader turned her head towards her group and nodded.
The group also nodded as they walked towards the direction of the Village. The Remaining Elven Assassins followed the group as the Leader turned her head towards the Trio. "I hope you don't cause trouble when you arrive." Persia chuckled after hearing the Leader's words and replied. "No need to worry about causing trouble. Though you might need to control your fellow elves, or it won't end well."
"I understand." The Leader nodded in understanding as she began walking along with the Elven Assassins in front of her. Persia, Ego, and Statera started walking as they looked around the Green Emerald Forest. Though, it couldn't rival the Great Forest in terms of beauty. It was still a Beautiful Forest in its own right. Persia walked right beside the Leader and asked with a calm voice.
"Do you have a name?" Persia turned her gaze towards the Elven Leader. Her Golden Amber Eyes glowed like a gemstone as the Leader nodded and answered. "My name is Lifa." Hearing the name of the Leader, Persia nodded as Statera appeared right beside her. "They are quite less advance and weak," Statera spoke with a calm voice.
Persia chuckled as Lifa tried to ignore Statera's words. Though, Statera continued speaking what came within her mind. "Elda in Piksyon would probably be enough to conquer this Continent." Persia slightly smirked as Lifa began coughing. Lifa turned her gaze towards Statera and asked with a calm voice. "You have seen an Elven Village?"
"I have seen numerous things. and I'm talking about an Elven Nation, not an Elven Village." Statera replied with her seductive voice as Lifa stopped walking and looked at Statera in shock. "Elven Nation? What kind of Elves controlled such a Nation? I have never heard of such a thing." Statera chuckled after hearing the questions of Life and answered them,
"All Elves controlled the Nation. It is a nation born from the Elves' unity." Lifa looked at Statera with an expression of doubt. All Elves uniting was a fairy tale that would probably continue as a dream rather than a reality. "I find it hard to believe that Elves could unite." Lifa shook her head as there were numerous Elves within the continent.
From the Earth, Heavens, and Seas, The Elves were quite diverse, which was why it was hard for them to unite. Statera chuckled once again after hearing Lifa's doubt and replied. "Piksyon is quite different as without unity is extinction." Statera's voice turned cold as she still had a seductive smile plastered on her face.
Lifa noticed the cold voice within Statera's words. Though, she shook her head and continued walking calmly within the forest. She looked upwards in the sky and noticed the Blue Heavens and the Orange Sun. She sighed as she never thought that she would bring outsiders. Though they were spirits, Elves tend to be secretive against outsiders.
As the group continued walking through the emerald green forest, The Three Ladies saw many diverse creatures along the way. Though they were weak, they were still interesting for the Trio. It took a 30-minute walk for the group to finally arrive. Persia gazed upon the two stone pillars in front of her and noticed numerous Elves surrounding them.
Persia could tell that they were a lot stronger than the first assassins they met, which might make everything complicated. Lifa walked towards the entrance of the Village and spoke with a calm voice. "Three Spirits wanted to enter the Village. It seems that we were wrong about them being invaders." The Assassins surrounding them looked at each other as a Buff Old Elven Man walked out from the shadows.
"They are strong spirits. I'm surprised your group managed to survive when fighting against them. Spirits tend to terminate anything hostile to them." The Buff Old Elven Man spoke with a tinge of surprise hidden within his voice. Lifa shivered after hearing her Boss. She then shook her head and nodded. "They gave us mercy as they seemed to be not that aggressive."
"Young Lifa, Spirits are only aggressive to those that are hostile against them." The Buff Old Elven Man shook his head as Lifa slightly looked at Persia when she heard the word aggressive once again. She quickly stopped staring at Persia, though Persia noticed Lifa's gaze. The Buff Old Elven Man looked at the Three Spirits. He squinted his eyes as he felt something different within the Spirits in front of him.
'An Otherworldly feeling within this Spirits and it seemed that they are currently under a handicap which means that they are a lot stronger than their current selves.' The Buff Old Elven Man thought to himself as he signaled the hiding Assassins. The Assassins began showing themselves, and it seemed that they were a lot of them. Probably over a hundred Assassins showed up.
"Visitors, You might need to head towards the Village Chief's House and talk to him about your arrival. Whether you can stay or not is dependent on his decision." The Buff Old Elven Man said with his calm voice. Statera, Persia, and Ego nodded in agreement as they weren't planning to fight. They walked through the Stone Pillar as they felt a strange change within the atmosphere. Persia and Statera looked around as they noticed something familiar. It was Mana.
"Mana? Interesting..." Persia smirked after feeling the Mana within the area around her. Though, it was a lot weaker than the one within Piksyon. It was still Mana. Statera also smiled after feeling Mana as she can easily manipulate it without any problems despite her current weak self. The Buff Old Elven Man turned his head towards Persia after hearing her words and raised an eyebrow.
"Mana? Don't you mean Aether?" The Buff Old Elven Man titled his head in confusion as he shook his head and continued walking along the road. Persia, Statera, and Ego looked at each other as they understood that Mana had a different term within this continent. "We'll investigate it later. For now, Let's talk to the Village Chief." Persia whispered with a calm voice as Statera and Ego nodded in agreement.
――――――――――――――――
Within a Nation known as the Albion Empire, The Capital City of Royale stood. It was the Capital of the Albion Empire, and it was known as one of the Strongest cities on the continent. It stood with its high walls and beautiful streets. The Elegant and Clean Buildings were one of the best as most of the Influential and Richest people within the Empire lived in such a heavily fortified city.
In the Capital City of Royale was the Imperial Castle that stood out the most within the City. It was Beautiful, Grand, and Marvelous as it got constructed with the most expensive and hardest stones. Its Defenses were tight, and nothing could siege it as enemies that tried to enter the City would get trapped by the Giant Walls. That was the Imperial Castle, and it was also the Castle of the Imperial Family of Albion.
On the Throne Room of the Imperial Castle, An Buff Old Man entered through the Room. He was a General clad with full armor from the rarest steel. Though, he got such armor after his defeat within the Outskirts of the Empire. The Retired General walked through the expensive carpet that had strands of gold. He kneeled and spoke with a calm voice.
"Your Majesty, I apologized for the lost within the outskirts." The Retired General looked down while kneeling with one knee. A Man sat on the Golden Throne of the Albion and spoke with a Prideful and Grand Voice. "Julius, That defeat was rather unexpected, but from the words of the Survivors. It seemed that the Intelligence Bureau sent you onto a suicide mission."
"I am willing to accept your Apology, but you must know what you need to do." The Emperor said with a Grand voice as he gazed upon Julius with his Silver White Eyes. Julius nodded as he stood up and walked back. As Julius disappeared within the Throne Room, The Emperor smiled and spoke. "From an Ancient Ruin that appeared out of nowhere. Hmm, Are they Outworlders?"
