【Chapter 7】Section 7 above the Undercurrent

"So...... Is that real?" Tyrami tugged at the reins, leaning in tandem with the pace of the horses under his crotch, "about the Dragon Knight and Angelina. ”

Evelyn gently stroked the horse's mane and smiled slightly, "This question is already answered in your heart, so why ask me again." ”

Terami smiled and nodded.

The two had been away from the queen city for half a day, and after a short walk, they slowed down. There is a mysterious connection between elves and animals, and Evelyn doesn't want to overwork her "friends". Terami agrees that it will take three days and nights to get to Asia.

Their horses were gray and white, and they were not very strong, but they had extraordinary strength on all fours. The two horses came from the hussar kingdom of Hilton, northwest of the Eastern Continent, where humans were adept at raising these animals.

"These two horses are very beautiful, but Queen's City is not like a place where horses are raised. Evelyn closed her eyes and lifted her forehead to let the warm sunlight shine on her face.

"Yes, we bought a dozen horses from there. For this purpose, a foreign trainer was also hired. Tellami replied, "The horses of Atlantis should be better than these, right?" Tellami thought that Evelyn had spent a lot of time in the royal city, and the knights of Atlantis were famous.

"For better or worse, these creatures are very spiritual, and they choose their favorite owners. Atlantis didn't really care about the horses, because of the presence of the dragon knights. One dragon is enough to inferiorize all mounts, even a few hundred horses. Evelyn still enjoyed the warmth of the sun, which she hadn't felt in a long time.

Tyramy's gaze was firmly drawn to Evelyn, he didn't care how beautiful and charming the elf was, but he was really puzzled by the intoxicated appearance of no one around her.

"Ahem, you're a very unique one of the elves I've seen. Tellami cleared his throat and waved the reins slightly, "You look ...... It's special. ”

"Are you talking to you? You look even more stupid than Alan right now. Evelyn turned her face with a smile between her eyebrows.

"Alan?" Terami frowned, and the image of a silly short man popped into his mind.

"A Lonellan I know. Evelyn's waist twisted slightly, her left leg arced in the direction of the horse's head, and her body naturally shifted to a sideways sitting position, facing the discolored warrior in front of her.

Terami sneered disdainfully, his legs exerted force, and the gray steed under his crotch neighed, and immediately galloped. The self-conscious Digan was dissatisfied that Evelyn had compared him to a Lonellan, and the sourness that churned in his heart made him even more confused.

Evelyn regained her riding position, leaned down on her horse and spoke a few words of elven language, and the white horse galloped up and chased after her.

It didn't take long for Evelyn to catch up with Terami, and when she saw that the usually majestic Ultimate Mentor had a cold face and red cheeks, she immediately hooked up with the word "embarrassment" that Eren had said. In the words of the Lonellans, Terami was undoubtedly jealous.

On a whim, Evelyn was about to make fun of her companion when a few rising smoke from behind a grove in front of her immediately dispelled her thoughts. She didn't think much of it, and galloped off in that direction.

As you speed through the woods, you can see where the smoke is coming from—it's a small village with a mess in front of you. The wooden houses were damaged to varying degrees, and several burly dark figures loomed behind the blazing fire. They are piling up some "things", and one of the "people" is holding a torch.

The breeze brought with it the distinctive smell of burnt flesh and skin, mixed with a fishy smell.

"Hah!" Evelyn shouted, and the white horse under her crotch raised her front legs and flapped several times in the air towards the "people".

Behind the smoke of the fire, the seven or eight dark-skinned creatures were poorly dressed, covered only with a few rags around their crotch, their thick lips unable to cover the huge fangs on either side, and their heavy skin was covered with sores and wrinkles.

And the pile of "things" at their feet turned out to be dozens of lifeless Lonellan corpses!

"Filthy monster!"

The sword was drawn, and before the monster holding the torch could react, the elf on the white horse had galloped past, and when several monsters around him hurriedly turned to look for the "uninvited guest", the eyes of the previous monster had lost their vitality, and the head hung down weakly, sliding from the protruding belly to the ground.

The rest of the monsters raised their rudimentary and primitive weapons in their hands, waving their arms in rage, and the disgusting roars were endless.

"What are these?!"

Terami was about to arrive, and Evelyn had once again struck the enemy with her sword in both hands. The clumsy monster set off the figure of the white-clothed female elf with extraordinary agility, and after a slash, she turned and barbed, and then leaned over and raised her hand...... The sturdy black-skinned monster died instantly at the hands of one man.

Evelyn held her sword in her right hand, the tip of the sword pointed to the ground, and stood in the middle of the corpse of the six-headed monster with a look of disgust on her face. This series of melee moves even Tellami was dumbfounded.

"That's what it is...... Demon Swordsman?"

Terami swallowed the whole sentence hard, he had never seen Evelyn fight before, and although these monsters were a little sluggish, the cleanly slashing was enough to show how experienced the female elf was in combat.

"Have you seen any of these 'things'?" Evelyn didn't retract her sword into its scabbard, dark viscous blood slowly running down its blade.

Terami dismounted and walked in, the monsters covered in blood, and their rough features could not be described even by ugliness. Their fingernails are stained, and they resemble imperfectly evolved humans, but with distinctly beastly characteristics.

"Beast spirits?" Terami guessed, "No, it's not. These things are not species we know!"

Evelyn looked at the grass huts that were still burning with flames, sighed and shook her head, "Well, I'm afraid...... There are no survivors. ”

"Outside of the major cities on the Eastern Continent, there are countless small villages like this...... We can't avoid such accidents. "Terami said.

The flatness of his tone disgusted Evelyn for a moment, and she asked, "It's less than a day's journey from Queen's City, but it seems that you don't even know about the existence of these monsters?" ”

"Evelyn, this matter is indeed worth paying attention to, but these surprises ...... Be careful!"

Terami's face suddenly tensed, and he subconsciously rushed forward and pushed Evelyn away, pulling out his sword at his waist and slashing out at the huge black shadow that jumped out from behind a cloud of fire.

"Roar!"

Under the roar, the beastly face was full of rage, and it fell from the sky with a huge machete in hand. As soon as Terami's blade made contact with it, his arm only felt the force and was softly suppressed by the opponent's blade.

Teramy's face was still shocked, and his body reacted instinctively. The left arm is supported by force, and the body slides sideways.

Bite!

As the monster's broadsword slashed deep into the ground, Terami's saber was severed, and the sword-wielding right arm trembled and was actually dislocated.

The monster raised its arms high, its knife-wielding hand effortlessly pulling out its weapon deep into the ground, the other fist slamming into its chest. It was a green-skinned beast with bloodshot eyes, sharp teeth in its large mouth, and two rusty iron rings hanging from its earlobes.

Terami hurriedly retreated from the spot, the monster in front of him was even larger, and the muscles on its strong chest muscles were bulging.

"Kaaçu, Buda, Sumi into ......"

The green-skinned monster gave Evelyn a vicious look, and then at Terami. The dark hair on his forehead was tied up at the back of his head, and between the two of them, the thick wrists were clearly hung with rattan weaving and ornaments that resembled human skulls.

"It's ...... Language?" Terami stared at the monster in front of him, incredulous. He couldn't believe the monster was "talking", but it didn't sound like an instinctive roar.

Evelyn holds her sword in both hands, her knees slightly bent to ensure that she is ready to respond.

"Oh, it looks like it's true!" Evelyn sneered.

"Orc, don't allow it, insult!" the green-skinned monster said in a lingua franca, panting, his body undulating with the rhythm of his breathing.

"What?!"

This was enough to shock the two, and the name "orc" was really the first time they had heard of it. The two were speechless, only to be ready for battle.

The green-skinned monster let out a deafening roar again, slashing across the fire with its broadsword, sending piles of firewood to the bodies of the fallen monsters, and in a moment the flames engulfed the ugly flesh and skin.

The monster stared at the two of them all the time, never even blinking. The corpses of those monsters burned at an extremely unusual rate, and soon their flesh was blurred and their organs were indistinguishable.

At this point, neither Evelyn nor Terami dared to make a move, and the monster in front of them had just defeated a warrior known for his strength by a landslide. Not only is the strength terrifying, but the jumping power and agility are at an immeasurable stage, otherwise Evelyn, who would not have turned her back on it, is unaware of it.

"Roar!"

After another roar, the green-skinned monster began to move backwards.

"It wants to escape!" Evelyn immediately realized its intentions, this unknown monster appeared in the main city of the Eastern Continent, as to how many companions it had, where it was hiding is still a mystery, if it is let go at this moment, there are endless hidden dangers.

Evelyn and Terami attacked at the same time, with the Digan changing to a sword in their left hand and breaking through head-on, while the elves leaped high. The green-skinned monster rushed forward against the attack of the two without thinking!

The attack of the two martial arts masters was child's play in front of this monster.

The big knife flew through the air, forcing Evelyn to hurriedly replace the offensive with a defensive position, at this moment, Terami's half of the blade stabbed straight into the monster's left arm to block, only for a second, the monster's left arm backhanded, Terami couldn't dodge, and his body flew out with a flutter, slamming on the stone on the side.

Evelyn had no time to dodge, and when she parried, a gap appeared when the broadsword came into contact with the Starlight Sword, but the aftershocks of brute force also made the sword-wielder suffer.

Evelyn was also shaken far away, staggering a few steps to her feet.

After gaining the advantage of the first blow, the green-skinned monster inexplicably did not want to fight, pulled out the half-cut blade that pierced into the arm, and leaped into the woods with great force, and after a while, there was no breath at all.

"Monster ......" Terami staggered to his feet with his head in his hands, and sighed again and again: "This strength, this way of fighting...... It's a monster!"

"Looks like we can't catch up with ......," Evelyn said, staring in the direction the greenskin monster was fleeing.

"Why don't you use magic?" said Terami casually, "Looks like a dry fight can't do it." ”

Evelyn was silent when she heard this, but instead put the star into the scabbard, glanced at the pendant on her chest, and muttered, "Orc......"
