It’s not the first time I’ve read about some tragic half-elf backstory, but, I guess I just didn’t think It’d be this bad you know?
Like, isn’t the mc supposed to heal the girls wounds and then say he doesn’t care that the girl is a half-elf and accept her for who she is or some other stupid bullshit and win her heart. But like… what the actual fuck am I supposed to be doing here?
I can’t help her at all! I don’t know what to even tell her to make her feel better. How the fuck do you help get someone over watching their parent be burned to death in front of them, seriously…
I mean shit, I can’t do anything here, isn’t the mc supposed to have SOMETHING to help one of the heroines out? But like, what can my level 2 weak ass do!?
Looking at the traumatized girl in my arms, all I could do was think about what she had just gone through and ask, why?
No seriously, what inspired those fucking elves to do this?
I want to say that I can’t understand why anyone would ever do something so bloody inhumane to a innocent person, but it’s not like the same fucking bullshit didn’t happen in MY world!
You know, maybe because this world is so much like a game world, or because I’m stupid, but it seems I have forgotten that this is a medieval style world that would OBVIOUSLY have medieval style customs. Yeah sad shit happens in games and novels but for some stupid reason, I led myself to believe that this problem was so simple and that this girl was merely exiled away and bullied as child or some other shit.
Really, good fucking shit eleves, you left this innocent cute little girl traumatized for no good FUCKING reason, and also got me all pissed off at myself also for no good FUCKING reason!
But I think this is a good lesson to remember for myself, I can’t lead myself to believe that this world is safe, or that things will just simply go my way. No, I need to seriously think about my safety and what the fuck I’m going to do. I don’t know anyone here, I don’t have any money, I don’t have jack shit on my weak-ass level 2 self…
Shit, even this poor little girl is a 6 levels higher than me, and I’m here thinking I could just walk out of this forest and somehow be fine after I get to a city or some shit. What a Joke!
There’s nothing stopping someone from mugging me, not that I have any shit on me, or just kidnapping me and raping or killing me. I could even get myself sold into slavery or something worse. I really need to think more clearly about myself and what I plan to do. I can’t be penniless and weak in such a brutal place. I mean like damn, it isn’t even safe for a girl to be out by herself in our modern times, but apparently, my dumbass thought it would be fine in this backwards-ass time!
I’ve just been all happy-go-lucky this entire time waiting for something to happen. Not anymore, I swear. I’m serious now about getting stronger. And I’m also serious about becoming the Demon Lord. I need to make sure I’m strong enough to protect myself. Strong enough to be able to overcome any challenge or defeat anyone who tries to get in my way. I need to stand above everyone else, In a way so absolute that no-one would even dare to oppose me. I need to become an indomitable Demon Lord that all in this stupid world will show reverence and fear to!
If there’s one thing I can thank the elves for is for waking me up from my stupid daydream. I really need to put all of my effort into growing stronger and protecting myself.
And I’ll show my gratitude to the elves for this reminder. Oh yes I will. When the time comes, and I come to destroy them, I’ll give them the chance to beg for their miserable lives, and if they please me, I might not just burn their whole fucking forest along with them to the ground!
But now’s not the time for me getting angry.
Right now I need to get out of this forest quickly, I don’t know how long this girl has been here, but if they come looking for her, both of us will be in big trouble.
I could just leave her behind and save myself, but I can’t. After all, I am a big softy.
So, continuing to caress the traumatized half-elf in my arms, I began thinking about what our next course of action would be. I also needed this time to calm myself down, so I didn’t particularly rush her even though the situation could get dangerous if we didn’t move fast.
After about 15 minutes, the girl looked up from inside my embrace and just kept staring at me. Since I didn’t really know what to say in this situation, I tried putting on a smile and simply asked her:
“Let’s go?”
The girl continued to look at me for a few seconds, seemingly confused as she asked me in her raspy voice:
“Go… where?”
“Anywhere I guess… anywhere outside of this stupid forest.”
The girl looked at me for a while before moving her head to face in what I would guess was the direction of her home. After staring at it for a few minutes in which tears silently fell from her face, the girl turned back to look at me and simply nodded her head, releasing a very quiet “Nn” sound.
With her affirmation, I got myself up before helping her do the same. I then took her left hand and began walking towards the direction I had been previously headed to. Since I didn’t know anything about this world I had been thrown in, I had no idea where to head to once we left the forest. I planned on asking this girl since she at least seemed to know the town where her father came from, and might know the general direction of the place. However, at this moment, I didn’t feel like putting on any more stress on the little girl holding my hand tightly with her shaking hand.
For now, I just wanted to hold her hand and try to be a reliable person for her, so that she could calm herself down and hopefully one day, be able to move on from the tragedy that was unjustly meted out to her…
Just found this story. Just finished the previous chapter 7 min after this was posted. A: I love it. Definitely got a follower here. B: Poor Half-Elf, I want to hug her to help her feel better. C: Yeah, I'm glad she had that revelation that sh*t isn't as simple as she was thinking. D: Those elves dared to traumatize the adorable half-elf? Its Demon Lord time now. Deus Vult.
Glad to have you onboard! Yeah this is when she now starts to truly take the path to becoming the demon lord.
@cyanwaw yeah, I can tell. Before it seemed that she was more doing it from the perspective of like building a Skyrim or D&D character. Not taking it very seriously. Now she's started down the path towards true Demon Lordom
DEUS VULT
PURGE THE HERETICS! HOW DARE THEY TRAUMATIZED A CHILD!
BURN BURN BURN THE HERETICS!
Are you just joking with us. The biggest wannabe Demonlord softi speaking about justice....
I m beginning to believe that this with wanting to be a demon lord is just a big joke.
Why else taking her with you and getting in danger for Softi Heart reasons....
You’d have to read till the interlude chapters for it to make sense
@cyanwaw ok, thanks for the Info
If she is a demon lord, why care about this ant?
Well ... its fine either way.
Ok, its murder time, enemys are racists willing to burn somone in front of her child just for loving somone they dident agree with.
Why does she keep talking about the world being medieval and "forgetting" that it would have barbaric old-time customs? She's been wandering around alone in a forest for a week. She knows jack sh*t about the world. At the end of the chapter she then admits she knows jack sh*t about the world. Why spend most of the chapter claiming to know what the world is like and being naive for "forgetting"? I don't get it.
She had assumptions about how the world would be, but decided not to think about it since it was very game like and hopped that it would be like a game. But it wasn't a game.
If you have just been isekaid, and you know isekai, having assumptions based on those isekai until proven othervise is reasonable.
Poor thing. And mc isn't the only one to have the soul eating thing. Maybe her lvl is higher so she gets more exp? Else it would be a place where everybody just kills everybody for the quick gratification of power up
I didn't even finish reading this and I'm making a comment now. I will PAY to have this turned into a book. This is 1. One of the few female characters that ISN'T a f*cking lamp.
2. One of the few female characters that GETS IT. Like, sh*t is real.
3. Isn't OP as f*ck for no reason.
4. Is not a bumbling idiot.
Dear sir or madam... I would gladly have your f*cking kid if I had a womb. f*ck, I'll go rent a girl to have a kid, so that when she grows up she can have your kid. (I'm totally joking about the renting and forcing my child into servitude.....)
Im bout to drop the next chapter, but I wouldn't recommend reading it until an hour later when the next part drops.
Disagree with point 4. She takes that Child with her despite getting more danger to herself, which is a clear sign from an idiot
@Ekbuel
not neccessarily. even if she abandons the kid she the only thing that will change at thos point is she will have a follower. She already cannot defend herself from any wolves or monsters, and like the girl said, the elves in her village (which is nearby) hate humans. as such, if she meets an elf in this forest she is screwed either way.
Also, the elf is a higher level, so depending on how levels work the elf might be physically stronger and of use, she might even have survival skills.
She may want to be a demon lord, but not all demon lords are pure evil. even demon lords have things they care about. And at this point the last thing the mc needs is to violate her own rules and mess up her psych.
