Chapter 140: Joining the Army (3)

Giullis guided them through the city, as it was the first time they went there. The elves couldn’t stop praising the city, saying how great it was, and Arthur agreed to all of it. It was incredible, and how did they build it in the first place?

Arthur remembered the bathroom he saw in the settlement that looked modern, and tried to spot if this place also had similarities, and it had. The way the streets were built resembled Earth, and it even had storm drains.

Something was strange about this world. At first, Arthur thought it was medieval without technology, but with magic. Now, though, the city he found beneath the desert, and also these elves, looked more advanced, as if someone had shared their knowledge.

It was impossible to find that answer as of now, so it was the best to focus on what was in his grasp, and that was to pass the test to enter the army.

The first stop they made was in an inn, and Giullis rented a separate room for each one of them. Arthur liked that, as sharing the room with those people would be a pain in the ass.

From what he had heard, they would have met with one of the army’s generals, and he would grant them a test. Giullis said that the test would hunt a beast in the wilderness around Slyvian, but he couldn’t tell what beast as it was random.

They did not rest inside their rooms and galloped to the palace. It was where the Elven royal family was, and where they would meet with that general.

On his way, Arthur checked his status to see how it was, as he was constantly getting free attributes from his devotees, and also from his new devouring skill.

Arthur’s level did not increase, as his was not with his girls for that to happen the amount of free attributes he got was amazing. He was sure that he had more attributes than those above level 130.

The attributes weren’t the only thing that progressed during the time he spent inside the Elven forest. Arthur was close to create his own sunlight tattoo, and his sunlight energy was on the brink of completion.

It slowed down once they reached that place, as it wasn’t as hot as the desert, but Arthur guessed that even in the desert, it would take him a lot of time to complete.

“This probably requires something else, like devour an item embed with fire, or jump inside a volcano. I need to find this to complete it, then jump into the next essence.”

He also learned more spells of the wooden attribute, and some of the wind attribute. These were the two essences he plan on complete while he was inside the Elven forest. If his guess was correct, then this place should be the best place to find suitable materials with those elements.

Now that his sunlight energy was almost complete, he could learn more advanced dragon skills, but Arthur wanted to first fully complete the essence, then learn the best skills in that book he had.

In his mind, it was the best to learn all the best skills, and don’t focus too much on the basic ones. If he was still in his early stages of absorption, then surely that would be a good idea, but he was almost completing it, so he might as well wait.

They walked through the city where elves chatted in the streets, traded goods, and offered their services. In that regard, it looked exactly like the cities from the humans.

It was easy to see the vast palace, and before they even got there, it was already noticeable. Arthur thought the palace where Jane lived was immense, but compared to the one he was seeing, it was a joke.

Made of the same rare stones from the walls, the palace was all green with gentle vines growing in the roof and walls, creating a decoration that fit well with the elves. They had an enormous courtyard with gardens of flowers, but also of magical herbs that they used for treatment, and nourishment of their mana.

Everything was clean, neatly arranged, and even the outside pools had crystal clear water, which meant the people there cleaned the pool every day.

The palace was also surrounded by walls, but these weren’t high, as there was no need for it. A defensive array was set around it, so the walls were just for privacy, as the real protection came from that array.

Guards stood in the front gate, and they recognized Giullis in an instant.

“Giullis, my friend. It’s been a long time. Are these the ones taking the test?”

“Yes. I hope you all can take care of them.”

“Ha ha, absolutely. These are the hope of our army. We need excellent warriors. Please, come in.”

He looked friendly, and was not acting rude with them, completely different from how the guards acted back in the palace. Maybe it was because their roles changed? Back then, Arthur was only a chief, but now he was a candidate to join their army.

Anyway, they all followed the guard to a building nearby. It was not the palace, but a separated building outside. That was the place where the palace guards lived, and where the general was.

The moment they walked in, a tall sturdy man appeared, hugging Giullis like he was about to crush his bones.

“Brother!!! It’s been a long time. You look so skinny. Are you eating enough?”

Giullis was not skinny, and in fact was quite muscular, but that thing did not even look like an elf. Maybe the face was of an elf, but the body reminded Arthur of a troll.

“Is he Giullis brother? They look a lot different…” Arthur thought.

“Everyone, this is my brother, Erlan. Erlan, this is everyone.”

“Ha ha, hello young people. Don’t worry, whoever joins my army will get as big as me. I have the perfect training method for all of you look bulky.”

After that, he made a double-biceps pose, catching Arthur completely off guard.

“This person is insane…”
