The Artificial God

The Artificial God
Humming



The air in the morning is very good, the warm atmosphere is right for me to start making a garden in my backyard. I borrowed a tool called a hoe to my neighbor, but I was still confused about what to plant in my garden later.


I also still feel sleepy because I have trouble falling asleep because I keep thinking about that Elf. I was eager to build a good relationship with her, but I forgot to ask her what her name was. Is it possible that if I go to that place again, I will meet him?.


Well I decided to go there, to make a garden in my backyard later. I also get ready to bring the items that if needed in the forest Agnuth, do not forget to also bring my sword that has always accompanied me since childhood.


"Hey! where do you want to go this morning?" ask someone who comes up to me in a hurry when they see me want to go into the forest. It turned out that he was Tygruth, but why did he go to the forest again? wasn't the venison he hunted yesterday still able to last a few more days.


"Oh.. hi. I have to go hunting today, and again I hope to meet the Elf who was meeting with us at that time" I said with a big smile.


Tygruth was surprised, and watched my face closely. Then all of a sudden Tygruth held both of my shoulders, "Gernath.... Are you... fell in love at first sight with him!?" tygruth asked which surprised me.


"W-what!? whatchu mean? of course not. I might like Elves, or some other race" I said with a red face.


"But your face is red. ah let's go in. But if you want to express your feelings to her don't forget to tell me yes!" said Tygruth who was very excited with this senseless talk.


"noisy! don't talk about the no-no!" I said who was angry.


Then we went into the forest, and went to the place before. But Tygruth left me alone in the forest, because he wanted to check every trap he set in this forest, because he might have gotten another hunt.


But once I got to the place before when we met that Elf. I was surprised that the Elf was there, stroking the tree seedlings I planted. I watched him from afar, to find out what the Elves looked like. Then after that the Elf hummed to the seed of the tree.


Hearing the Elf's humming, I was made to be amazed by that astonishing apparition. The tree seedlings suddenly lit up brightly, and looked very beautiful. Klak.. I accidentally stepped on a tree branch, and made the Elf alert by being around.


"Who's there! come out and show yourself!" said the Elf firmly while using her magic power. In his hand let out a light, which signified he was getting ready to attack. Then I showed myself and raised my hand above my head.


"You. what are you doing here." asked the Elf who stopped her magic power.


"I-I just wanted to go see the tree seedlings I planted here" I said, nervously. Suddenly Tygruth had a word in my mind about me falling in love with him. This is impossible, where maybe Elves, and Leonis can live together.


"Why are you covering your face?" the Elf asked resolutely while taking back her magic power from seeing my strange demeanor. I felt something strange about me, why I was nervous in front of him, "Love" akh shit again the words came to my mind.


"My jaw! or I'll kill you soon!" said the Elf, then I slowly started to open my hand. I don't know if my face is still flushed, or not, but I was surprised to see that the Elf was dumbfounded to the point of gaping from looking at me.


"A-what's up!? why are you surprised?" I asked who was facing backwards.


"Eh!? I-I'm okay.. You fucking crap! I'll go first!" said the Elf immediately ran away from me.


Oh shit... What really happened to me? why did I become like this in front of that Elf. Is Tygruth's word true? about me falling.. argh! throw away my thoughts about those nonsensical words. Then suddenly Tygruth came to me with a very fast jump.


"Huh shit, but I hope that today there will be animals that enter my trap. Eh!? what happened to you, Gernath?" ask Tygruth.


"Ah...no, it's okay.let's go take care of the plant" I said.


Then we took good care of the plant, fortunately I brought a bottle of water before leaving. Because near here there are no waters, especially very good waters such as rivers in our village. Then I suddenly thought back to when I met that Elf.


If it's not wrong he caresses this plant, and sings it. I wanted to do it too, but it would be a shame if Tygruth saw me. I could have been considered a strange Leonist by him, and Tygruth told my strangeness to the other Leonists, and again it seemed to be just me, and Tygruth alone knew this plant.


"Below.the beautiful full moon.I sing a beautiful song..mu.t.mu.tly smile happily..welcome this song..."


Then suddenly the plant gave off a brighter light than the Elf humming earlier, even the plants were swaying. Turns out I misjudged Tygruth, I thought he'd think you were weird, and laughed at me. But he was silent while enjoying me humming.


"No.. maybe... how can...?" ask someone from behind us who surprised me, and Tygruth. It turned out that person was the Elf just now, but why did he come back again after running like that. I still don't understand how this pointy-eared human nature is.


I was quite surprised to see that the Elf was shedding her tears while looking at the plant. He wiped his tears with joy, and hummed with me. Tygruth who saw it was immediately humming, somehow our rhythm became more palatable to hear.


The plant was increasingly glowing, and suddenly around the surface of the soil grew strange grasses, but it looks in harmony when equated with this plant. It seemed like this was the grass of the Elves, the grass also shone beautifully.


Not only that, the plant began to grow bigger slowly. Then small insects began to arrive, and surrounded us who were humming. Before long the large animals gathered together, and began to make their voices.


Wush.. suddenly there was an attack from nowhere that hit me until it bounced. It seems like the attack that hit me was a magic attack. Because the attack seemed to have cracked my arm, before long the attack came back hitting Tygruth and bouncing.


Then after that came the person who attacked us, it turns out that person is from the Elves. He went over to the Elf, and hugged her with a face filled with worry. Seems like from anywhere, the Elf that attacked us was the father of this Elf.


The animals, and the insects that had arrived began to run away again. The light on the tree also began to slowly dim, as well as the swaying, the tree no longer swayed cheerfully. I could only see them far away from here, I did not dare to go any further because it was possible that I would be killed by him.


"Are you okay, princess? did that lowly creature hurt you?" ask the Elf. I was quite surprised to hear that the Elf called her "Mr Princess". Which meant that he was the son of the village leader of the Elves. Like the Elf who came attacking us was his bodyguard.


"I'm fine. Let's go" said the Elf, inviting her bodyguard to return to her village.


After they left, I immediately ran over to where Tygruth had fallen. I was shocked to see Tygruth was quite badly injured. His head was formed so hard that it was covered in blood, and he was unconscious. Then I immediately carried her, and brought her back.


But after I brought her home, what should I say afterwards? there's no way I'm telling Tygruth's parents that what caused all this to happen is the Elves. The worst possibility was a war between the Elves, and the Leonists.
