"Freya, you can go first. I have so urgent matters to attend to. Don't worry, it's nothing dangerous. I just seed to have spotted an old friend," Reji explained briefly to the Saintess before imdiately rushing out.
Reji wasn't too sure about the shorter figure because they were quite short and blocked by the crowd, but the taller one, even if they used a spell to disguise their appearance, due to the vast difference in their levels, Reji could see through it at a glance.
Wasn't that the Great Elder of the Elven race?
Why would she appear here?
According to the plot of the first playthrough of the ga, the elves from a thousand years ago should only exist in Malvin's notebook.
No...That was only the player's perspective in the ga.
Perhaps in the first playthrough, many hidden events happened behind the scenes, but at that ti, I, as the Hero, was too weak to be involved.
Whether it was historical changes or hidden events, since Reji had encountered them, he definitely wouldn't let them slip away.
Moreover... What Reji was most concerned about was the little girl holding hands with Nazha.
If I guessed correctly, she should be...
Soon, Nazha led the little girl away from the main street and into a secluded alley with few people.
After another turn, Reji continued to follow. There, by the wall, Nazha was already on guard, waiting for him, scrutinizing this stalker with a wary gaze.
This was actually what Reji wanted. He didn't deliberately conceal his actions. Rather, taking this opportunity, Reji could finally see clearly the little girl who was now hiding behind Nazha, her small hand tugging at the Great Elder's clothes, peeking out with a mix of nervousness and curiosity, looking at him.
The little girl's face made Reji's heart burn with excitent.
No mistake.
Although much more youthful.
But after all, she was my future woman.
Vielsia!
It was really her!
…
Good news, I found my wife from a thousand years later.
Bad news, my wife had turned into a loli.
Uh...
It didn't seem that bad, though?
After all, even when she is small, she was still very cute!
Ahem.
Reji slightly restrained the expression on his face. It wouldn't be good to be misunderstood as so strange man, although judging from the gloomy look on Nazha's face, it was probably too late.
"Sorry for startling you. I just saw that you both looked haggard and weak in your steps, so I thought you might need help and followed you on my own," Reji apologized first, but what he said afterward was all true.
Nazha and Vielsia's current appearance was indeed not very good.
Both of their clothes were very plain, a nice way of saying they were wrinkled and worn, as if they hadn't been changed for a long ti, looking travel-worn.
The gaunt look of hunger on their faces was evident at a glance, especially Vielsia. The little girl's cheeks were sunken, and her dry stomach was almost sticking to her back.
"This is none of your business. This is the last warning. If you continue, don't bla for being rude!" This woman was indeed as cold and proud as she was a thousand years in the future.
She coldly dropped these words and was about to turn and leave when Nazha suddenly felt a blur in front of her eyes. The next mont, the strange young man who had been at a distance from them instantly appeared in front of them, blocking her way.
Reji, of course, wouldn't let Nazha leave.
Although he wasn't clear about what exactly happened to Nazha to make her so destitute, he didn't care how the Elder was doing. But he couldn't let his Vielsia suffer along with her!
On the other side, Nazha seed to have already prepared for battle. Although Reji's teleportation surprised her, as a proud Elven Elder, how could she be afraid of a re human?
About five seconds passed.
"…"
With a cry of despair, Nazha knelt on the ground.
This youthful version of the Elven Elder now looked at Reji with shock and disbelief, and of course, humiliation and fear hidden deep in her eyes.
Nazha only felt that Reji had just poked her with a twig, and the surging magic power that followed imdiately engulfed and filled her like a tidal wave from all directions.
Her proud magic barrier, in front of him, was like a thin film that broke with a single poke. In contrast, his seemingly slender twig was like a scorching magic wand, leaving her powerless to resist.
Now she was panting heavily, her body only able to stand up by leaning against the wall. All her strength seed to have been drained, leaving her with an intense feeling of weakness.
Seeing that Nazha still seed to want to struggle.
Suddenly, several thick vines broke through the ground on both sides of the Elven Elder.
In the blink of an eye, the vines wrapped around Nazha's hands, feet, and waist, and chest, fixing her directly to the wall. No matter how much Nazha struggled, it was to no avail.
The winner was decided.
The vast difference in strength between the two made Nazha doubt who she was facing. The last ti she felt such a desperate sense of disparity was when facing the world-destroying Demon King.
Of course, what shocked Nazha even more was the spell Reji used to restrain her in the end.
"Nature energy? You... you can manipulate plants!?"
"No, why can you... Even though my Nature fate track doesn't work in this world, who... who are you!!"
Nazha's words piqued Reji's interest.
Co to think of it, indeed, although the battle was brief, Nazha didn't use a single nature spell, which was very strange.
So Nature didn't respond to her?
Reji had so realizations. He then quickly walked up to Nazha, lifted the cloth around her waist, and placed his hand on it under the angry gaze of the Great Elder, whose face was flushed with sha and anger.
"Now try your nature spell again."
Reji didn't do anything excessive, just to make contact with Nazha with his hand. The embarrassed Nazha didn't need Reji to say more and imdiately tried to awaken the power of nature.
And this ti...
Buzz!
Several new vines indeed broke through the ground around them. This was Nazha's nature spell, which surprised and delighted her.
I can use it?
I can use Nature spells again??
But before Nazha could be happy for long, these vines instantly left her, losing control, and all turned towards that human youth.
Now even Nazha could see it.
"You... you can control the Nature fate track!? No! Wait, there is a Nature fate track within you!! And this aura, royal? You...
who you!"
After closing her eyes and carefully sensing, when Nazha opened her eyes again, her attitude towards Reji had changed. There was much less hostility and more deep confusion.
