Surviving the Apocalypse While Being Tempted by an Elf and a Dark Elf Chapter 283: Horde (6)
Thanks to the flying fortress, the movent speed of Luke’s group increased tenfold. They also didn’t have to stop to rest or to eat. Not to ntion, they could easily find hordes of monsters on the ground, so Luke just had to fly low for a short while and give the orders for his followers to jump and fight. Even without doing anything, he was obtaining experience and gold coins. Now he could understand why Frank was so full of himself, but instead of getting carried away, Luke used his ti to train while he looked at other dark elves. He also learned Fire Manipulation and Wind Manipulation to create more spells. That cost him one million gold coins, but who cares? Those skills would level up like crazy while he tried to learn new spells, so it was like trading gold coins for status points. Sothing he would gladly do.
"There is a dium-sized settlent ahead, master. It should have at least five hundred dark elves there," Nambra said.
Luke’s head began to hurt... Danielle finally stopped with the master thing, and now this weirdo took her role in a lot more difficult way since her intentions were clear. That voice only ntioned the words: those two. So, it was fine if he laid his hands on Nambra and while he wouldn’t have gladly done that if he were the sa person that he was one year ago, things were so simple now. Regardless, he shook his head to change his mood and focus on the task ahead.
"Do you rember that place, Shalia?" Luke asked.
"Nope," Shalia replied.
"Since that is the case, I think things will go as usual," Luke said and then began to slow down to land the flying fortress.
That is what Luke thought. However, he didn’t notice the dark elves doing anything when they approached after jumping from the fortress. While looking from up close, Luke noticed that the settlent was a lot different from the others that had been made by magic and could be abandoned without any thought. That place had houses made of wood, and its inhabitants looked a bit troubled while they were approaching. It was more like a village than a settlent. It was rare to see such a things in that world.
When they got close enough, an old dark elf stepped forward, trying to look imposing, but it was clear that he was nervous. He beca a bit less tense when he saw Shalia and Sylah. Luke wished that he didn’t put much faith in those two being reasonable. Sylah was stupid, and Shalia was vicious, after all.
"Who are you? State your business here," The old dark elf said.

The old man was pretty strong... he even had all the basic forms of elental manipulation. Still, his other skills and spells were at a high level as well, but their variety wasn’t that great.
"My na is Luke, and I am a human," Luke replied. "I am here because a friend asked to reclaim this world from the hands of monsters and overlords. She helped with my world, and while things aren’t settled there, I have co to help. Anyway."
Luke wondered if he should have told that much, but he was out of touch when it ca to diplomacy since no one tried to talk these days. They only wanted to fight, experience and loot. Besides, the old man looked like soone wise, and while Shalia said that only the most crazy dudes didn’t agree with the plan of finding help, in other words, it doesn’t an that they can’t change their minds after a while.
"You have co to help this world, and you will use all ans necessary, like enslaving our people?" Seirion asked.
"I wouldn’t say by all ans necessary, and while I am not a paragon of morality, there are still so things that I can’t do," Luke said. "As for the people that are with , they aren’t slaves. While I wasn’t gentle when I convinced them to join my side, they also tried to kill , so I would say that I have been quite rciful."
The old man stopped to think for a while. If anything, Luke looked fairly reasonable since the people around him looked fine. If he were like the other overlords, he would enslave or sacrifice anyone who he had deed weaker than him. Still, he was hesitant. Thanks to that, Shalia’s patience ended.
"Make up your mind already, old man," Shalia said. "We don’t have all day. Join us of your own volition or after getting your ass kicked. Luke is willing to let you join our side without making any oath, but if any of you try sothing funny, the whole group will suffer, and I will make sure of that. After that, you will be sacrificed and beco fuel to the red crystal."
Shalia wasn’t wrong, but Luke wished that she had chosen better words. Now he looked even more vicious than her. Despite that, the dark elves on the other side didn’t look angry. If any other group would have heard that, they would have jumped to attack all of them with their bear attacks.
"Before giving my answer, can I make a request?" Seirion asked.
"You can, but it doesn’t an that I will have to do whatever you want, even more so if it slls fishy."
