Over the next few days, I did my best to avoid Moon after that night under the moonlight.
She tried finding excuses to be alone with me, but I kept finding excuses to avoid her.
During this time, we also hashed out many details of the trade agreement and helped the elves restore their forest. Otherwise, we would have returned to the town much sooner than this.
The details of the trade were handled easily with Haley here, so I was mostly there to sign off on these things.
Other than that, there was nothing that really happened.
Once those few days passed, it was finally time to return to the town.
As we left early in the morning, there were many elves that came to send us off.
Before heading off, there were quite a few humans that were talking with the elves. They were making various promises to visit again and that they would bring all kinds of different things with them.
There were also some elves that were making tearful goodbyes to humans...almost as if they had bonded more than just as friends over the past few days.
I wasn't against this, but I couldn't help wondering what would really happen if this turned out to be true. I was sure that the rest of elven society wouldn't be able to accept it as easily.
There have been cases of half elves being born, but these were very rare in history.
Still, I didn't see anything wrong with it as long as the people involved were happy.
As we set off from the village, there was plenty of waving and goodbyes shouted which brought a smile to my face.
However, not far from the village, I asked for a stop to go to the bathroom.
I received a few complaints that I should have gone before leaving, but still they stopped to let me go.
Moon had wanted to go with me, but I had Cecilia stop her.
After all, having her with me would have made things awkward.
I moved away from the group and after making sure that I was alone, I moved even further into the forest.
Once I was a distance away from the rest of the group, I suddenly stopped and said, "You can come out now or are you planning on following me all the way back to town?"
There was a silence that filled the air after my voice fell, but then there were a few figures that appeared in the trees around me.
The one that led this group was a red haired person with sharp ears.
It was Apollo who had left that night and hadn't come back with them to the elven village.
I didn't know why he had left, but it was clear by the look in his eyes why he was here.
Plus with how they were all aiming their bows at me, it was very clear that...they were planning to kill me.
Apollo narrowed his eyes to look at me before asking, "How did you know that we were here?"
I looked at him with a calm smile and asked back, "How did I know?"
Apollo's eyes and lips twitched when he heard this, but in the end, he didn't react the way that I wanted him to. Instead of losing himself in his anger, he forced himself to calm down.
As expected of someone who had been the head warrior in the elven village.
When it came down to it, he was able to control his emotions and didn't fall for cheap provocation.
Well, it could be said that he fell for it a bit since there was the look of rage in his eyes.
After a moment of silence, Apollo raised his hand and said, "Since you aren't willing to say anything, then there's no need to keep you alive then."
I couldn't help being surprised when I heard this.
Normally in this situation, the villain would try to torture the hero a bit before killing him.
But Apollo didn't have this habit and wanted to kill me right away to spare himself any troubles.
It seemed that this part of him was still a warrior, even if he was lacking honour.
The other elves all listened to him and drew their bows all the way before suddenly releasing them.
All of their arrows were shot out in an instant and they were all aimed right at me.
The moment that they hit, I would be turned into a porcupine by all of these arrows flying right at me.
That is if they were able to hit me.
All of a sudden, there were several cloaked figures that appeared around me that swung their swords to cut down the arrows flying at me.
They perfectly formed a barricade around me and all of the arrows were cut down, not missing a single one.
When they appeared, all of the elves in the trees couldn't help being shocked by this.
After all, they hadn't sensed these figures at all.
It was almost as if they had appeared out of thin air.
Apollo deeply knitted his brows before asking, "Who are you? I don't think there is a relationship between us that you would come out of nowhere to interfere in my matters."
None of the cloaked figures said a thing after hearing Apollo speak.
They just all stood there silently, as if they hadn't heard a thing.
This actually hurt Apollo's pride a bit.
So he said, "Do you know who my father is? Donan, the head warrior of the elven king."
Now that he had been kicked out of the elven village, Apollo didn't hold back at all acting like a cliche villain. He had lost the dignity that he had from before and acted just like a villain would.
But once again, the cloaked figures didn't say a single thing.
A vein popped out on Apollo's forehead seeing this and he was about to snap, but then he suddenly knitted his brows.
It was as if something had changed.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
