Chapter 22 Not That Scary
Elysia was creating havoc as she was having a little too much fun with her new skill.
"HAHAHA, this is so much fun, I never knew when you get such good skills killing monsters becomes fun and not stressful." Elysia was rushing through the forest killing groups of giant insects and various normal-looking beasts with her new blade burst arrow.
"Although I am wasting a little bit too much MP, it is just too much fun to stop." Elysia had increased her rate of killing even getting a couple of tier 3s in the mix. Because of the increased hunting and small forest fire she was creating she was able to get a lot of beast crystals and some level-ups.
'Sweet I'm level 24 and my blade arrow is level 2 and if I'm not mistaken Wolfy has levelled up quite a bit since he has grown even bigger now.' Wolfy had hit level 19 and was now the size of a small dog.
"What did I say, Wolfy, you are too big to sit on my head" Wolfy looked sad as his favourite spot was now too small for him and he had to walk now.
"heh" Elysia found it amusing seeing Wolfy a little depressed as it was like a teen had ruined something they enjoyed but they can't blame anyone but themselves.
*
Elysia continued her journey and was now at the foot of the mountain, to her surprise there were no beasts but she assumed that because of the Azar presence which she could feel.
'it's not imposing but it is certainly a warning to anyone that comes near here.' Elysia continued to climb to the top as there was a trail of sorts going up.
'Once we get near the top I need Wolfy to cloak me and him and I just need to shove the flower in my inventory and run.' Elysia was betting that Wolfy's shadow cloak would be enough and since she is just a low tier it would ignore her and allow her to safely leave.
Elysia was getting close to the top and could see a cave entrance.
'That must be it let's get a little closer' Elysia approached the cave and looked inside.
When she turned the corner she was met face to face with a massive bird who was also looking at her if he was sneaking as well.
"AHHHH" Elysia fell back as she was almost scared to death.
"KI KI KI, little girl what are you doing here?" The bird laughed and actually spoke.
"Wait, you can speak." Elysia had not heard of a beast talking before.
"Well of course I can speak to you, any beast that is a tier 7 leader." The bird answered her question as she was only a tier 2 and was not aware of such things.
"Oh okay." Elysia sort of understood as such strong beasts would have that sort of intelligence.
"Now tell me why have you come here and it is clearly not to defeat me."
"Well, I came here for the flower of extreme fire." When she mentioned the flower the bird released a little bit of its pressure forcing Elysia to go on her knees.
"Tell me a good reason why I should give you that flower." The bird glared at Elysia as the flower was an important part of its nest.
"It's for my friend, she fried her mana circuits saving my life and I had come here to get one to treat her wounds," Elysia tried her best to explain the story, She even went into detail about how she was saved by Shaman and had felt an eternal debt to her.
after explaining her story Azar had pondered for a moment.
"KI KI KI, I like your character and your friend, so I will give you one flower as you wanted." The Azar suppressed his aura and reached out for the flower and passed it to Elysia.
Elysia stared blankly as the life and death situation she was imagining turned out to be more of a friendly chat and just politely getting the flower from the bird.
"Don't look at me like that, I may be nice but trust me other high tier beasts are not like me, now get going I'm sure your friend is waiting." Azar had shooed away Elysia as he actually wanted to go back to sleep.
"Oh yes, I will. Thank you very much." Elysia thanked Azar and headed off.
*
'I can't believe it was that easy.' Elysia had melted a little as at first, she thought she was going to die but instead got given it for just telling Azar why.
'Better not waste this and go straight home.' Elysia then ran straight back with Wolfy.
After travelling for 2 hours she finally made it out of the forest.
'Okay maybe running for a few hours is not a good idea.' Elysia was puffed out as she ran at full speed to get back but her stamina was not the greatest.
'I'll just walk the rest since I am not far, thank god these maps have a tracker and are easily able to make my way back.' Elysia then went walking but when she started she fell over.
'uhhh, maybe I should rest for a little bit.' Elysia resigned to her fate and rested with Wolfy standing guard.
Elysia had fallen asleep as the stress and fatigue of hunting and getting the flower had caught up to her. But her short rest would be interrupted.
"WOOF!" Wolfy barked, causing Elysia to shoot awake.
"Huh what's going on." when she opened her eyes she could see 2 men and women standing in front of her they also looked familiar but Elysia would not recognize them.
"Look at this cute thing, maybe we can sell them for some decent cash" The woman spoke while licking her lips.
"She definitely looks like a high-quality product." The 2 men and women both had a little lust in their eyes as these were the same people that had tried to kidnap Shaman but failed.
Elysia had gotten up and stood back.
"Come on now just come with us, I'm sure you won't regret it." The man tried to entice Elysia.
'gosh why do we have to live in a human city with barely any beast people.' Elysia wanted to leave this city as it was mostly filled with normal humans and it was causing more issues.
The man got a little bold and thought taking down his pants would be a good idea.
Elysia, seeing this, instantly pulled out her bow and shot a fire arrow in his jewels.
"You disgusting pig." Elysia had finally spoken and her face was full of disgust.
"YOU BIT-." But before another word could be said Wolfy had used a shadow bite to decapitate the man.
The other 2 were horrified and had fallen over.
"M-MO-MONSTER!!!!" They both screamed.
Elysia, not giving a shit used her blade arrow, killing both of them at the same time and leaving their bodies to rot.
[level up]
She was now level 25 and was ready to evolve.
"At least it was worth something, Wolfy let's go." Elysia now in a foul mood walked back to the city
'I am never dating a man.' Elysia's opinion of men was ruined.
'At least I get Shaman all to myself and I am not letting any man get close to her for as long as I live.'
*
Elysia had finally arrived back in the city and made her way to the guild house to turn in her beast cores.
She had made 100 gold coins which surprised her but then she remembered the little massacre she went on and it made sense to have got so many cores.
After receiving the money she rushed home to treat Shaman.
When she entered she could still see Shaman resting as the medicine had not worn off quite yet.
'Although I have been gone for 2 days it seems like things are fine.' Elysia walked up to the side of Shaman and used the flower.
[Do you want to use the flower of extreme fire]
[Yes/No]
"Yes" The flower had vanished and got the quest complete sound.
"YES, I guess now I just wait for her to heal." Elysia then went to got eat some food and washed up as she has been in the forest for 2 days.
***
Shaman could feel a warm sensation.
'hmm did Elysia come back and get the flower?' Shaman could feel like changes were happening.
[Yes, she got the flower and it is currently healing you]
'Oh that idiot actually did it, I swear the first thing I do when I wake up is kiss that pretty face.' Shaman was now determined to be the best girlfriend for Elysia as she had even dared to go to tier 7 leader's home just to heal her which caused Shaman to now feel indebted to her for life.
'To think I would find my first love in another world.' Shaman had a grin as she was okay with this kind of development.
Shaman's eyes had slowly opened and all she saw was Elysia looking at her with anticipation.
Just as she said she grabbed Elysia and pulled her in for a kiss.
