Chapter 173

The Elves. Just like the Beastmen and Dwarves, this species migrated to the Earth too. They lost their home because of the Demons and were forced to live in a strange world. 

The only rope that kept tying them was the grace of the second Princess. Belle saved and encouraged them, they started to build their home in Japan. Together with their new home, they decided to put the precious seed of the world tree in the soil of Japan. Right now, the tree was around 15 meters in height, it may look tall but the mature height of an adult world tree was 8000 meters, it almost reached Mt. Everest. 

The Elves were living peacefully, they started to move on, erasing the memories of the Demons. They had a grudge against the Redemption and Niña but overall, they were good. They had strong camaraderie and kindness to each other. Ehem, actually really good, this is a fact but female Elves were so famous in a certain type of movie… and I think we both knew what it is. 

Anyway, back to the story. The Elves nor the other species were not allowed to join the Hunters Tournament. The answer was simple, their power systems were completely different from the humans. 

A Hunter needs to use his Skill to acquired another Skill.

The Beastmen needs to find their Kampi to gained another Skill. 

The Dwarves were alcohol addicts and they didn't have any intention of fighting, they were loveable people actually. They were only interested in, crafting, blacksmithing, and creating stuff. However, they had this unimaginable strength and sometimes some of them were blessed with special powers. The Dwarves were hella strong, that's a fact.

As for the Elves, they had a different power system too. The Elves had these Elemental Spirits. They consist of Elements from nature. From simple Wind, Water, Earth, and Fire into the Lightning, Dark, and Light. The Elves were loved by Spirits. When an Elf was born, they already had an Elemental Spirit. As time passed, the connection between the Elf and the Spirit would strengthen which caused their power to become stronger.

……

"Kampai!!"

"Kampai!!"

The Japanese were celebrating, they were cheering, drinking their drinks. They won the semifinals, now their team would participate in the quarterfinals. 

Some of them were singing in front of the karaoke that was currently playing the absolute mad lad favorite anime openings of the weebo community, the Unravel of Tokyo Ghoul. 

"Oshiete oshiete yo sono shikumi wo~

Boku no naka ni dare ga iru no?"

For the record, they were offbeat and their voices were so loud and deafening but no one care, they were here to celebrate anyway. The sounds of electric guitar slapped their ears as they started headbanging their heads.

"Hahaha, it's a good plan that we hide Yumiko's Skill!"

Yumiko was the woman who had the Skill to insert a person inside a picture. Her power was not an offensive type, but the Skill was the reason why they reached the quarterfinals. A flashing light would arise and the person would be teleported in a picture where Yumiko wanted it to be. She imprisoned Mikael inside the picture and he was forced to wait while his teammates were gradually eliminated. 

Truth be told, they were anxious when they saw Mikael slaughtering on the battlefield. At that last moment, they thought they would lose. But it seemed like fate was with them, Mikael fainted before he could touch Yumiko. The battle ended with Yumiko being the only one who survived, it was a good fight and the people screamed loud to cheer them. 

It was sad that Mikael lost but his performance was so good that even now, the people who watched it were having goosebumps. Even if Mikael lost, he was still acknowledged as the strongest Hunter who participated in the team battle. 

"Elder Siegh? Do you have a problem, you're not drinking your wine? Haha, just tell me the reason and I will solve it? I'm having a good time right now and I'm pretty generous. You don't have to hide it."

One of the higher-ups of the Japan national team found that Elder Siegh was not touching his wine. He asked him if he had a problem, their country had a strong relationship with the Elves and they greatly respect them. The Elves were good and honest people, they were so kind that sometimes they were being used. The executive, one of the higher-ups, wanted to get friendly with Elder Siegh, he wanted to know if he could help him.

Elder Siegh smiled at him and shook his head. Actually, his real mission was to protect Princess Belle but the Princess told him to protect the executives of Japan instead. Elder Siegh had some thoughts but he decided to follow the will of their leader. 

"Nothing, I'm just not used to this kind of thing."

Elder Siegh frankly said, he was a peaceful man and he wanted a relaxed atmosphere. He didn't like noisy gatherings. The executive's face twitched, he chortled and humbly said. 

"I'm sorry Elder Siegh, um, you can stay outside if you want. I understand that you are having a hard time."

The executive smiled like an angle to appease him. Elder Siegh was one of the eccentric Elder and nobody wanted to incur his wrath. He knew that if Elder Siegh lost his reasoning, this room would turn to a beehive as his water bullets rained omnidirectionally. 

"Hm, I will."

The Elder followed his opinion. Elder moved and opened the door, the other Elves were left inside to guard. The executive watched him slowly closing the door. He sighed in relief when the Elder was completely gone.

"Okay… Kampai!!"

He yelled and lifted up his glass. 

"Kampai!!"

The others screamed just like him. They were happy that their team moved into the next round. Their greatest hindrance was already out of the way and they believed that the championship was near. Their happiness was obvious in their expressions. 

………

……

"Phew..."

Elder Siegh went outside, he decided to go to the rooftop. He felt like he was close to nature when the wind was hitting his body. 

He smelled the air and he smelled the smoke too. He scrunched his nose when he caught the scent of the foul smoke. The smoke coming from the vehicles made him awful.

"I don't know how these people could live in this place with dirty air."

It was still a mystery that he couldn't understand. Elder Siegh was not a Wind Elementalist but he still had high sensitivity in terms of smell. They were the people of the forest, the children of the world tree. He was confused why humanity didn't care about nature despite knowing that nature was the reason why they were living.

"Humans are odd."

While he was busy feeling the light breeze of nature, a shadow was slowly moving in. The shadow was getting closer to the Elder. When the shadow was ten feet away, it released seven shadow spikes to impale him. 

(Start of the battle.)
