“Who are you? Reveal your names and intentions!” Said one of the elves that saw us from afar. However, the moment he saw a giant white dragon with us, he immediately dropped his jaws. “L-Lord Guardian-sama!!! Everyone! The Guardian is here!”
The Elf Guards protecting the wooden walls began to panic as the White Dragon spoke with a dignified tone of voice to everybody present here, he seemed to be rather bored of their overreactions, which had been like this since he has memory of meeting the elves.
“You elves always overreact so much! Just open the gates already. I brought Elfina, haven’t you missed the Princess? This thing is her summon, don’t discriminate it based on looks, it is a deadly monster that defeated two demon lords.” Said the White Dragon, the elves froze as they saw Elfina and then… me.
It seems that Elfina was even more important than I thought?! She was actually the freaking Princess of the Elven Kingdom! No way, really? She doesn’t look at all like a princess now that I think about it, she’s always timidly trembling and being such a worrywart… Maybe that’s why she’s like that? Because she’s a princess? Huh… Well, she probably grew spoiled.
“Y-Yes, Guardian-sama, immedaitely!!!”
“Alert the Elven King, Elfina-sama is back!”
“By the Old Gods and the Holy Spirits, she’s really back!”
“That hideous thing she has as a summon is quite frightening though… be careful to not touch the spikes, they look dangerous!”
The Elf Guards began to scatter everywhere until a group of five quickly came to open the enormous gates, letting us in. I was growing furious by how they were treating me. How dare they call me hideous?
“Who are you calling hideous?! I used to be the most beautiful goddess in my world, actually! I was so beautiful that even Supreme Gods wanted me!” I roared back, but everybody only looked at me and then exploded into laughter.
“Bwahahaha!”
“What is the monster talking about?”
“I have never seen such a strange familiar, is this a talking spiky purple rock or something, Elfina-sama?”
“No, her name is Kireina, and she’s something like… She was a giant caterpillar and now she became a giant cocoon… I don’t know what she’ll become later, probably a big butterfly.” Said Elfina. Everybody only began to laugh even louder. It was really getting on my nerves! Fucking bastards, I am going to eat some elven flesh today!
…Or so I would like to do, but I remained silent and bear with it. I had to just get through these jerks, get the knowledge of the Bridge of the Cosmos or whatever its called and then get the fuck out of this planet. This is enough! I am not doing any more for you bastards!
“Please stop laughing at her, she is a bit temperamental…” Said Elfina timidly.
“Elfina-sama!”
Suddenly, an elf maid with red hair and sharp ears came running towards Elfina, as she hugged her.
“I was so worried about you! I am so happy you’re back safe and sound!” She said. “UWAAAH! What is that thing?! And… EEEH?! G-GUARDIAN-SAMA?!”
“Ahem, do not be afraid. I am here to bring her back and talk with the King and everybody about something important… And this is Elfina’s summon. She’s the one that had kept her alive all this time. She also destroyed the Kingdom that captured her and also slain two Demon Lords.” Said the White Dragon. “She’s a strange monster but she got the brave heart of a hero.”
Oooohhh! White Dragon! You said something nice about me, you damn bastard! I never expected that from you! You really just fucking shocked me there! Did you really just praised me?! Ahh… I guess you’re not that bad of a bastard, you bastard!
“I-I see! T-Thank you so much for keeping the lady safe!” Said the Maid. “I-I am Fiere, the Head Maid of the Elven Castle, I’ve been in charge of my lady since she was a little toddler. I am very happy to see that she’s safe and sound…” The beautiful red-haired elf said while sighing in relief.
“I see! Nice to meet you then. Name’s Kireina. Nobody refers me by that name for some stupid reason but I am actually a powerful Supreme Goddess from another world, I am extremely weak in this form, but I should be even stronger if I keep leveling up…” I said.
“O-Oh… I-Is that so?” Asked Fiere.
“A-Anyways, let’s quickly go to the castle, Fiere.” Said Elfina. “Also I am just as happy to meet you again…”
“Elfina-sama…” Sighed Fiere, as she began to cry. She started to clean her eyes with a handkerchief as Elfina petted her shoulders. I guess this was a moving reencounter.
We moved across the streets quickly. I mostly rolled using Roll because my body didn’t allowed me to move normally at all. It was rather noisy and my spikes were breaking through the ground below, making quite the disaster. But nobody said anything because they were scared of me. The White Dragon didn’t wanted to hold me because I was all spiky, even though I wasn’t poisonous.
The beautiful streets and the land of the elves was quite big, there were just houses around gigantic trees but also houses below. It was mostly all paved out naturally using rocks and probably smoothing them out using some sort of magic. There were wild animals wandering around with elves together. Bears, deer, owls, and other forest creatures living peacefully with the elves gave it a very peaceful and carefree scenery… Man, I want to take a nice nap now.
We got into the castle after some more time. The castle was positioned atop a giant tree which they called Little Yggdrasil; it was the last Yggdrasil Tree of the five that were once all around the world. It seems that this world survived some sort of apocalypse because all Gods are dead and the Guardian is the last of the “god kin”… This world, “Grand Terra” seems to be filled with as many mysteries as Genesis.
