E - Rank Hero In Another World
Chapter 142 - Truth

"Leo, try drinking this." Narla said as she carried a bowl of water on both of her arms.

He drank it to Leo who was standing next to him. And Leo immediately gulped it down without the slightest hesitation.

After a while....

"Eh?"

Some parts of his body that were sick began to heal very quickly. Even the seemingly permanent burns on most of his body were soon gone.

A beautiful blue light also appeared all over his body. Gently wrap Leo's body.

"What'sthis? I'm feeling.... So fresh?" Ask Leo curiously.

"Water of the Mana Tree. Even though the flowing river had long since dried up, I could still find this little bit of water. I hope I can ease the wound a little bit on your body." Narla clearly smiled.

Hearing that explanation, Leo then asked over what was really going on with the Mana water in this Elf continent.

"What happened so that the river dried up?"

With a face that looked so sad and angry at the same time, Narla replied.

"I heard it from one of the dying victims. At that time, Valkazar used almost the entire Mana Water in the Silverhide region to use high-level destruction magic.

It is not known where the magic was directed. But the traces of magic are the same as we can see." Clearly Narla was pointing at a very long and deep crater.

The crater has a similar appearance to what Leo saw near the port of Crystalcourt.

"So so? If we follow this crater, maybe we can meet Valkazar?"

"That's possible. In the Silverhide region, there was a messenger of the Mana Tree, which I believe is very difficult to defeat. Even by Valkazar."

After finishing that short conversation, Leo and Narla went on a long journey. To immediately go to the place where Valkazar might be.

......***......

...- Silverhide -...

In the Holy Lake region, right near the Mana Tree itself....

A girl with beautiful blonde hair seemed to be lying helplessly. With a body filled with blood, and some parts of the body that had disappeared.

In the surroundings, the holy Mana water that existed had long since dried up. Only leaves the old tree that no longer has the leaves.

"Whatever or what, you can't even touch me. So laughable. Now tell me where the real tree is." Valkazar said as he lifted the girl's body with a firm grip on her neck.

"Kuhghaakkah! Muggghh!"

The girl looked like she was coughing up blood. Both of his hands were long gone. His right leg was also cut off. Despite losing so much blood, he was still able to survive well.

All because of the blessing given by the Mana tree to him. Although....

"I know you're immortal. But that doesn't mean you can stand the pain. If you don't say it quickly, I might make you feel a little bit of hell." Valkazar said with a very sharp look.

"Yuhhhh!!"

The reply given by the girl was only one. It was spitting Valkazar right in his face.

"That's how. Alright. Damus." Valkazar said quite loudly.

Immediately, an Archdemon appeared behind him. He has a form like a real devil.

A pair of red horns, large wings, a slightly scaly body, as well as dark red skin. With a body that was about 2 meters tall, He immediately knelt before his Master.

"Your Majesty, how can I help you?" Ask Damos politely.

"By soon. But.... Is what's here not a Mana Tree?" Damos asked as he lifted up the helpless Elf's body.

"It should be a Mana tree. But in reality this is a fake tree. Or rather, is a fraction of what it really is."

Hearing the conversation of the two Devils, the Elf woman who could only continue to be silent thought.

'How is it possible....A Devil.... Knowing that much? Not even the entire Elf race knew the truth. How come?'

Just as Valkazar was about to leave, one of the other high-ranking Devils immediately appeared before him.

She has a form like a woman so graceful. The woman had beautiful purplish hair, with 3 large snakes that seemed to emerge from the back of her body. The snake has a purple color and always surrounds itself.

"Hiss! Your Honour. Bad news. I've confirmed Thorax's death. Including the death of the entire Demon army there! Hiss! The woman said while hissing like a snake. Of course with a long tongue that is split in two and always protruding out every few moments He speaks.

Hearing the bad news, Valkazar began to narrow his eyes. He could not believe that Thorax could be defeated.

"Regarding his stupidity, his body was at least stronger than mine. How could he possibly die? And how can my army just lose?" Valkazar asked with a very sharp look. As if piercing right into the soul of his interlocutor.

Damos, who was just about to leave, looks back on his knees waiting for orders from his Master.

"Hisses! A huge explosion burned him to the ground. Including all the troops. Hiss!" It was clearly the snake woman.

"explosions.... Huge? Verthis. You understand what I'm saying, right? That magic explosion a while ago wouldn't even scratch my body. Especially Thorax's body." Reply Valkazar who is now getting upset and getting angry.

"Hiss! I'm just saying what I see. Hiss! And in fact, Thorax died with a charred body on fire. Hiss!"

Valkazar immediately turned his head. Think about the possible explanations that could happen.

Given that the Elves in Crystalcourt were a little open to the world, there was a high chance that they had a wider knowledge of magic.

If coupled with their enormous amount of Mana, it was possible.

"One hundred.... No. gabe. Perhaps two hundred Elf witches could indeed burn Thorax down. But why didn't he fight back? As for the other troops...."

Shortly before Valkazar finished his thought, Verthis gave something inside the belly of one of his snakes.

"Your highness, in the battle area I found many objects like this. Hiss!" Verthis said as he handed over what was left of Leo's army's magic weapon.

A wooden stick that had been charred burned, as well as an iron barrel that had been partially destroyed. It was almost unrecognizable, except for a strange trigger and a knife at the end of the weapon.

"The strange spear. Wait for. It's like a human weapon I saw in Eastfort 6 years ago. Did you say, humans came there?" Ask Valkazar.

"Hisses! It's possible."

Feeling annoyed that humans are also taking part in the battle in this Elf land, Valkazar seemed to smile thinly while immediately ordering.

"If anyone can clean up my demon army as well as Thorax. The big chance is he's a human hero. And if 100,000 isn't enough, send 200,000 there. Including yourself." Valkazar.

"Hisses! those 200,000 are almost our entire army in this Elf land. Hiss! Is Your Majesty sure?"

"of course. Damos and I still need to do something here, so there's no problem. As for those Succubus, they are still working hard in our main territory."

"Hisses! If that is indeed His Majesty's order, I cannot refuse it. I'll be leaving soon. Hiss!"

Immediately, Verthis disappeared. Leaving Valkazar and Damos here.

As for the Elves who could only listen to all of their conversations....

'It's bad.... If this continues.... Please please. Anybody.... Please save us.'

He realized. The end of the Elves is near. And the only thing he could do right now, was to pray.
