Chapter 37: Shasha (III)
Two years passed like this.
In the past two years, I have missed my father and mother all the time. I'm going to try to be stronger, strong enough to protect the people around me, strong enough not to let them leave me again.
The village elder and grandfather of the Ice Elf Village have already left. On his deathbed, he entrusted the future of the village to Grandpa Shahid, who gladly accepted and became the new leader of the village.
At the suggestion of Grandpa Sid, I began to study ice magic in earnest, but due to the inconsistency of my physique, I had already been attacked before I could officially start learning. Grandpa Shahid took out the ice elf clan's treasure cryolite and gave it to me, saying that as long as he fused this cryolite, he could learn ice magic freely.
But I rejected Grandpa Sid's kindness, I don't like to force such a thing, since I can't use it, then it's destined to be useless to me. I want to become strong by my own efforts, even if I don't have the talent to use magic, then I can strengthen my body. Use this power to protect your family and shelter them from the wind and rain.
I began to practice day and night, and asked Uncle Luca in the village to teach me swordsmanship, he was a famous swordsman in the village, and he mastered a superb elven sword technique. Under his guidance, I started with the basics, first solid basic skills, and then learned sword skills.
At the age of thirteen, I learned my own unique sword skills with my own understanding and Uncle Luca's guidance. To my delight, Grandpa Shahid had brought back Aunt Yuri and Brother Sharid not long ago. Thankfully, they're all right. But it wasn't long before we found out that Aunt Yuri was seriously ill and passed away soon after, which made Shahid's brother cry for a long time. I'm sad too, but I can't cry anymore, I have to be strong, I've learned to restrain my emotions after this year of penance.
Unfortunately, Shaland's brother was never found. Maybe he's already had an accident, or maybe he's still wandering somewhere in the world. But I'm glad I'm glad that Brother Shahid is back.
Such peaceful days lasted for two years. Until one day, a sudden invasion of monsters broke the peace. They're rampant, they're cranky, and seem to be done on purpose, and these mysterious creatures are constantly destroying villages.
Just when we were at the end of our minds, the black-robed man appeared. He helped us get rid of the monsters, and gradually gained our trust, living with us in the Ice Elf Village. He is very friendly, he teaches us how to strengthen our magic power for free, and helps the sick people to heal the sick, he is indeed a good person, and good people will definitely be rewarded.
Then, he died suddenly. This was unexpected, because it happened so suddenly. To show our respect for him, we have never uncovered his face beneath his mask and buried him in the most sacred place of the Ice Elves. I thought that this was the end of the matter, but soon after, the people of the village mysteriously fell ill. Their whole bodies are blackened, and the magic power on their bodies is inexplicably lost, and the situation of their brother Sharid seems to be even more serious.
Grandpa Shahid told me that the clansmen were in this situation because of the loss of control of their magic, and that they were in dire need of a medicinal herb to suppress it.
Seeing more and more sick people, I was so confused that I offered to go out to find this medicinal herb, although my grandfather repeatedly obstructed me, but I was determined to go.
"How can you not take us with you. ”
I hadn't even gone far from the village when a few figures appeared behind me, it was Thea, Leah, and Lucy, my best friends.
With their company, my tense nerves also relaxed a lot. So far, it's been going well, and nothing out of the ordinary. Probably on the eve of the storm, a white monster soon appeared in our field of vision.
It pounced on us with its bloody jaws wide open, its sharp claws scratching our clothes.
"Be careful. ”
I quickly distanced myself, and with the cooperation of Thea and the others, the snow monster easily fell to the ground. To be honest, this is the first time I've killed a monster, and it's a really uncomfortable feeling.
We sat on the ground with palpitations, and before we could relax for a few seconds, the fallen snow monster suddenly came to life! We fell to the ground without resistance.
"Is this the end of it?"
I looked desperately at the approaching snow monster, and many familiar faces came to my mind, Mom, Dad, Grandpa Sid, Aunt Yuri, Brother Sharid, and now my relatives. I still can't do anything after all.
