Reborn As A Haier-Elvian: The Blood Hunter And The Warlock (Replace To New Account)

Chapter 21 "Day of Return"

At first glance I saw Prince Keylan's palm being stretched out. So great as to represent the distress that he will give me. So far, I thought being a mystical beast hunter was already a dangerous job.

It seems true their words. Above the sky there is still the sky. In the course of searching for spirit crystals, there would definitely appear various dangers to come. It could be that I got lost during a quest, faced an extremely powerful giant monster, or had to snatch the spirit crystal from the hands of the ruler of the land. Even worse, I died early in the journey.

Imagining all those possibilities alone gives me goosebumps. If only it were still as cowardly as it used to be, maybe I would have fainted to hear it.

Until this moment also .. fear still often covers me. It is as if courage settles at the bottom of the heart and will never arise. I was clearly hesitant to make a decision. If only I could, I'd prefer not to be confronted with this and would rather play a chase in the woods with an Elvian soldier. Life like that is enough for me.

But this heart ... still feels guilty for dragging my friends here. Even though they say they are starting to live here. Missing the house will definitely not be forgotten. Those people just pretended to be strong and held him back.

I understand their feelings. Because I am too.

"Yes, of course," I replied, welcoming Prince Keylan's hand. "Whether I can get through it or not, but I'll try my best."

The man smiled wryly. A warm smile and an attentive look that can really melt a woman's heart. In my heart I am grateful to still have a part of the man. If I were a woman entirely, I would fall in love and be crazy about this handsome man. Truly a male conqueror woman.

It's getting night. The atmosphere in this library became very quiet like a cemetery complex in the middle of darkness. The sound of the clock sounded like a war drum in the ears. I might even be able to hear the sound of ants dancing on the wall.

"Come on! It's time for dinner!" bring Prince Keylan.

\========================

The days change quickly like opening a page of a book. It hasn't been two weeks since I've been in Ruvia. My healing went well. The physical injuries I received now disappeared completely without leaving a mark. My body seems to be getting better too. My fingernails also grew beautifully, having been forcefully plucked before. Not just healing physically, mentally as well.

Prince Keylan used to talk to me and joke around, sometimes he also took me around town. Thanks to her, I was able to forget the traumas and painful memories. Replace it with new, fun memories.

The prince's personal servant who took care of me when I woke up, Lyle became my new friend. Despite the different races, we quickly got along. Maybe because we are both girls. Lyle was a pretty interesting person, he was not quiet but also did not say much. This girl has a lot of knowledge about herbs. Since childhood he has been trained by his grandmother who is a reliable doctor in this city to make various potions. No doubt, all the herbs he gave were very effective in my healing process.

Today also arrived. The day I'm going back to Glafelden.

Although it is fun to be with them, this place is still not my home. Ruvia's city isn't where I should be. I have to go back to my hunting colleagues, they must be worried. Especially Dimas, he must have the desire to catch me here. But if to this day I haven't heard from a human intruder, then someone from "Night Dive" stopped his crazy idea.

Hope so!

When my heart calmed down, I didn't want anything to happen to Dimas and burdened my mind again. I don't know why I can't wait for my return. The morning sun was just emerging on the eastern horizon, its light was slipping into my room and falling on the floor. Gave this room enough light for me to give.

I just finished taking a shower and changed clothes with the clothes provided. A lacy blue-white striped shirt, and cotton pants underneath were a little loose. My hand was combing my long hair slowly in front of the dressing table.

Suddenly a knock came from the door, I rushed over and found Prince Keylan standing in front.

"Are you ready?" ask the man.

"Wait a minute!" reply slowly.

Then let the man go inside and wait on the sofa. By the way, this 10x8 meter room is my own private room. The prince gave me one of the rooms in his mansion for free. This room is so big and filled with lots of sparkling luxury furniture. When compared to the 'Night Diving' headquarters, the place was similar to a pile of trash. Prince Keylan also fed me three meals a day. Of course with 'high' food standards'. Not what I used to eat in Glafelden. Not only that, the man also sent one of his servants to take care of my daily life like a noble daughter.

Seriously, this is the first time in my life I've been treated this special!

I never even felt it in my old life. Leaving a life like this is hard. But I can't ride here forever.

Step back to the dresser and sit on a small chair. In front of me was a large mirror that could capture the shadows of the entire room. So I could see whatever was going on behind my back. Including Prince Keylan who looked at me gently from above the sofa.

"It doesn't feel like it's time for you to leave" he said.

I continued combing the hair slowly, harmonizing with the man's tone. "Living here is fun. These memories I will always remember. Thank you for accepting me here, Prince!"

The man propped up his chin on the sofa while lying on it leisurely. "Hey, didn't I tell you not to be so formal with me?"

After that I went back to the dresser. My long hair had been neatly combed, it was time to give it a final touch. At this dressing table there are various kinds of cosmetics with complete. Starting from lipstick, eyebrow pencils, eyelash flickers, and others. I don't know the name of the other tools, I can't tell the cosmetics from each other. Although I am in this world a woman, I am not interested in cosmetics at all and prefer to appear as is. After all, I was originally a man.

What kind of person likes to wear cosmetics? It must be the transvestites and I am not a part of them.

The thing I was looking for from this dresser was nothing but a hair tie. After checking for a moment, I found her in the small drawer of the many drawers on this dresser. There were two lacy hairbands, one was purple and the other was plain white. Of course I chose the purple one, because it was my favorite color since childhood.

"It looks like you better pick the white one. It would be compatible with your shirt being striped blue-and-white" he suddenly exclaimed.

I looked towards him. The man simply shrugged both shoulders and gave a wide smile. If that's what he wants, I'll just follow it. White is not bad either.

After everything was ready, Prince Keylan and I rushed out of the room. The steps of our shoes were heard tugging at this wide, arid corridor. Not long after, I arrived at the living room whose ceiling was very high, where chandelier and artistic paintings decorated it. In addition to a long soft sofa and velvet carpet held on the floor, this room has good quality furniture.

Honestly, I can't believe I can live in a super luxurious mansion like this. It's a pity to leave the place, but I'm not too sad. Because I can meet my hunting colleagues later. I hope they don't worry about me too much.

Lyle, who had just walked out of the corridor opposite me, joined me. Escorted by a dozen guards, the three of us walked out of the mansion in tandem. Prince Keylan said that he would take me to the Kelan River, which is the border between human and Elvian lands.

After passing through several sroths and descending hundreds of steps, we arrived at a stables located near the military camp of the city. This is not a new place for me. Because before when pursued by Elvian troops, I once hid in a warehouse in this area.

Prince Keylan was talking to someone from the military near the stables door. I was blind to the rank and title of Elvian military. But it seems that this person is a military superior if you look at the many badges and attributes that are enclosed in his uniform. While Lyle and I waited on the long bench outside the stables.

"It's a pity that you have to leave now" Lyle said.

"Well how else? My place is not here."

"If only Elvian and human relations were not as bad as they are today. Maybe we can freely visit each other" the girl added. His eyes stared deep at the giant trees. "I've always been curious about human cities. But the unwritten rule across the country says we should stay away from humans. Whoever breaks will be punished."

"In my town the same. The stigma about the 'human enemy' in Elvian was deeply entrenched and widespread. If only there had been a time when we could coexist and relate well."

"I'm sure the future exists" Lyle said. The girl turned her head towards me and shrugged both of her shoulders. "Although I don't know when."

In the middle of the conversation, my ears suddenly heard the sound of horse-shoeing. Prince Keylan riding on a white horse led a small cavalry group, stopping in front of me. His handsome figure and handsome white horse make him look like a prince in the Disney movie series. Moments like this are usually the things awaited by girls who dream of romantic stories. Fortunately, I did not include them.

"Let's go, Anggi!" said Lyle who immediately climbed on a horse that had no rider.

"But I can't ride a horse."

"Just calm. You just need to hold me tight."

The girl reached out her hand, and directly pulled me up. The surprised me could only hold her waist and hug her body from behind tightly. A second later the horse I had moved.

It was my first time riding on a horse. The sensation was completely different when compared to riding a delman. Riding a horse is really scary. Very unstable and always shaking hard. I was afraid of falling and getting stepped on by a horse behind him. On the other hand, this is a new experience for me.

About half an hour passed riding a horse, we arrived in front of a rocky bridge. This large bridge connects the two regions above the Kelan River which flowed profusely. Most of the users of this bridge are merchants who sell their merchandise to the Elvian region. Although the long-ear people insist on telling their people to stay away from humans, the truth is that they still depend on us.

Items such as household furniture, clothing raw materials, food and drinks are commonly traded. So too with humans. It made me believe that in any world we cannot live alone.

Lyle jumped off the horse and helped me to get down. Elvian troops could not further deliver, as this bridge was the border of both regions. I was just about to thank Prince Keylan, before a voice called out to me.

"Range ....!!"
