THE LORD OF THE OTHER WORLD

Chapter 37: The Elf Prisoner Group

At night during the food rationing, Becky, who was walking around the settlement, accidentally noticed an unusual sighting among the captives. Unlike the other prisoners who looked shabby and unkempt, a group of captives who broke away from the others looked suspicious to him. At first glance if noticed indeed they are no different from the others, but for Becky who in fact is an expert of high caliber, no one can escape from her sharp vision.

Becky can tell that even though they use dark green robes that look dirty on the outside, but actually on the inside they wear typical clothes that are usually worn by a noble. The clothes were definitely not clothes that could be easily obtained by just anyone, especially in a slum like this.

Then, feeling sure something was wrong Becky immediately walked to the group. After arriving in front of them, Becky immediately told them to get up and follow him.

Faced with such a powerful extension, they simply turned to each other before eventually nodding and following Becky from behind. They really did not dwell and resigned to obey Becky's orders. After all, they had already seen the one-sided slaughter that Becky's group had committed against the beast race. Clearly they already knew the gap in terms of strength between them and Becky.

Even though they wanted to refuse his orders there would not be a good ending for them later. Already so far, they should reveal their true identity and hope to get a better place than being a prisoner of war. They only hoped Becky's group could become allies to their group. Recalling after what happened to their nation being destroyed by the messenger of the sacred temple, in the end they were sure of having the same enemy. They need a worthy ally to battle the sacred temple intent on uniting the entire land.

"Do you know why I brought you here?" becky said upon arrival at a place isolated from residential areas, precisely in the wild surrounded by many large trees towering.

"We know, Miss," replied one of them in a calm tone.

"You must be the one in charge of this group." Becky flipped over as she stared at the figure of the man behind the cloak.

"Yes, Miss."

Now the man is more clearly visible in Beck's sight. A handsome man with pointy ears typical of an elf. The man stood up with his calm disposition, his face always smiling with his narrowed eyes.

"As Miss knows, we are elves who are from the Elf Kingdom that is in the western continent. My name is Neth, Prince Yasha's bodyguard, and this woman right behind me is Princess Aleena. Regarding our existence here, we are actually on the run from the pursuit of the messenger of the sacred temple. However, we ended up being caught by one of the higher-ups of the beast beasts in this place."

"I can't believe you elves are getting weaker? I remember how it used to be that your higher-ups were even strong enough to fight on the battlefield." Becky had absolutely no intention of demeaning them. It was just that what he said just now was an indisputable fact.

Naturally, for the elves who did not understand the true reality, they would feel Becky had gone overboard in her speech. They wouldn't be happy with Becky's treatment that demeans them. Especially for the elf princess who was still in an unstable mental state. He was furious and launched a magic attack towards Becky.

In response to the attack coming towards him, Becky mockingly brushed him off with one of her hands. To Becky, the attack that the elf princess launched was just a child's toy to her. Totally unworthy in his eyes, this even made him even more convinced that the elves of this era had suffered many setbacks.

After the fire magic disappeared in the void, Becky immediately activated one of her abilities. With an instant without being noticed by the others, he had already moved his place and stood right before the elf princess. One of Becky's hands was gripping the neck of the elf princess named Aleena.

"Look, how pitiful the elf princess was in this era. Not only did he not have the ability, he was even very stupid when compared to his predecessors." Becky threw a petty look towards Aleena who now had an ugly expression on her face.

On one side of the elf princess was seen difficulty in releasing the grip of Becky's hand. He was very frustrated and angry at the same time. On the other hand, the elves who witnessed it put on a fierce face and were about to launch a combined attack towards Becky simultaneously. However, before that happened Neth had already stopped their actions. He reminded the others not to act impulsively.

After all, the blame was on their side. It was the princess who had attacked Becky first, that action was completely unjustified. Even Neth who had been calm from the beginning couldn't help but worry. Immediately he apologized to Becky and explained about the mental state of the princess and her unstable group. He also reveals about the bad events that befell them in the midst of the pursuit of the holy temple people, so that the prince separated from their group.

Becky who felt Neth's sincere intention in revealing the incident even slightly made her melt. Hearing the name of the sacred temple in the story made Becky feel a little bit on the side of this group. Lazily, Becky finally released her hand and made the elf princess fall helpless and coughed.
