Rebirth: Magic Holy Knight
Chapter 4: Saving the Abducted Elves

The Treeshe Continent was one part of the Great Continent of Renovia which was the residence of the Elf Race. Their building structure relies on strong wood from the forest, their characteristic is to have long and youthful ears due to having the gift of long life. After traveling for a week on a horse-drawn carriage, Ayato finally reached the Elfanno Empire.

The gatekeeper strongly rejected the existence of other races so Ayato disguised herself by lengthening her ears with the help of simple magic that she could use.

[Sound of the Horse Car Foot Steps]

[Stop]

"My friend, it seems that you are very tired from the long journey. Come in and refresh that body!" said the gatekeeper with a sincere smile

Ayato was lucky because there was no examination, however, the gatekeeper was very friendly towards his fellow races but it was different from the story that Ayato came to show herself as the Human Race maybe she would be a prisoner even worse being a slave to the workers.

After Ayato went inside suddenly she was amazed to see the structure of the Elfanno Empire building that was so magnificent that even the natural atmosphere enveloped every building even though it was like a forest but displayed a beauty.

Along the way inside the Elfanno Empire, Ayato was completely unable to discern old, young, young, handsome and beautiful because all the Elves he saw looked young without wrinkles even women look beautiful but there are even more beautiful men. However, some looked like children in general as soon as Ayato thought of them as Elf Boy.

Ayato did not enjoy the scenery alone, the food and drink she also felt even though there were some flavors that she did not know but she really enjoyed it. However, every race whatever it was must have had a villainous nature due to the time Ayato got in front of the palace, she said, he saw the Elf Boy about 12 years old being kidnapped by their own fellow race so Ayato undoed her intention to meet the Elf Emperor by immediately following the kidnapper.

To more safely follow them, Ayato was forced to abandon her carriage and then run after the kidnapper's horse carriage secretly. A few hours later after Ayato followed the horse-drawn carriage, she arrived at a cave located in the jungle which was their hiding place.

The kidnappers numbered five when Ayato entered the cave at once the kidnapper put the Elf Boy into the cage along with the other elves, Ayato saw a strange mark on the kidnapper's forehead and there was even a device that gave the sign of slavery. The kidnapped elves numbered five Elf Boys and five adult or old elves but they were all female, they were all, Ayato suspects that they will be sold as soon as the kidnapper heats the bondage sign and then takes out the Elf boy she kidnapped.

[Rebellious]

Ayato could not bear to see the Elf Boy screaming for help, frightened and crying so she showed herself to make the kidnapper start focusing on her.

"Hey, motherfucker! Let go of that Elf Boy and everyone in the cage or I will kill you all!" yelled Ayato with an angry expression

"Huh? Who are you and why are you here?" ask one of the kidnappers

The other four elves had already started to surround Ayato on all sides while the one that looked like their leader started to show a cruel nature by kicking the face of the Elf Boy she had kidnapped to the ground and then her body hit the cage with strenuously.

[Sickness]

"Elfs like us will not be accepted by the Elfanno Empire. Those whites will always be above the blacks like us because of an unclear agreement, where we might accept such peace. This is a sign of our rebellion but why are you defending them. Could it be that you are one of them?" the kidnapper was confused to see Ayato

One of the kidnappers attacked Ayato using a sword from the right.

[Holding down the Sword]

Ayato quickly drew out her sword to hold back the sword slash from the kidnapper, looking as though she was very confident to attack him so she continued to lash out a powerful slash until it made Ayato's hand feel the tremors from her sword.

Ayato put distance to the kidnapper.

"Hahaha, you won't win against us. Everybody attack him!" the leader of the kidnapper

[Prepare for Sword Technique]

"Sorry, I'm just making sure of your strength but it seems like it's not necessary!" said Ayato while levitating a sword slash by turning her body 360 degrees

Sword Technique: Circular Slash!

[Sword's Filtration]

[Springing Blood]

The bodies of the four elves that attacked Ayato from all sides were hit by a circular slash that aimed at the waist until it cut their bodies into two halves instantly making an instant death painless after which the blood from the piece the bodies of the four of them gushed to the surface of the ground, causing the elf leader to panic as he unsheathed his sword.

"Damn it, who are you?" ask her with a frightened expression

[Trembling Holding His Sword]

"Hold your sword properly and fight me!" said Ayato while staring intently at her enemy

[Panic]

[Holding down the Sword]

Ayato continued to hold back the sword slashes from her enemy that had not counted the number of times she floated her sword but did not see the tired breath of the elf even made Ayato surprised to see it so that the Elf continued to attack Ayato many times it was as if his attack had an effect on Ayato because it saw her continuously defending herself.

"Hahaha, accept this and this!" shouted the kidnapper leader with fear of missing

[Holding down the Sword]

Ayato again kept her distance instantly giving pleasure to the kidnapper leader as if she had managed to scare her enemy.

"Hahaha, keep protecting yourself but soon you will lose!" shouted the kidnapper leader with an arrogant expression

"From the beginning, what made you laugh?" asked Ayato with a flat expression

"Huh?" the kidnapper leader was confused to see Ayato who did not feel tired or scared at all

"You're saying I'm losing soon? Sorry about what you said, may I ask an unimportant question. Do I look like I'm going to lose?" ayato asked as she stared intently at her enemy

[Panic]

[Fear]

"Damn you!" the kidnapper leader shouted as he waved his powerful slash towards Ayato

[Sword's Filtration]

[Holding down the Sword]

[Prepare for Sword Technique]

"You can sleep!" say Ayato

Sword Technique: Instant Slash!

Ayato was directly behind the elf leader's body then the color of his enemy's eyes turned red with her neck starting to bleed. After that, his head shifted to the left until it detached from his body and then fell to the ground.

[Springing Blood]

Ayato slashed his enemy's head neatly until he finally let out a burst of blood from the head and neck of his enemy and his corpse fell to the ground suddenly making the kidnapped elf feel freedom and feel safe seeing their kidnappers getting killed.

Ayato cut the cage to free the kidnapped elves then gave them clothes to cover their bodies. At first glance Ayato saw their bodies like a lack of food because in the cave there is a vegetable, she took it and then told the rescued elf to get out of the cave.

"Thank you so much for saving us!" said the Elf Boy

[Stopping Footsteps]

"Sorry for making you see all that!" said Ayato while glancing backwards

[Dropping Tears]

"Thank you so much for saving us!" they all said while crying

[Crying]

"Together!" reply Ayato with a smile

They all wanted to thank Ayato by taking her to an elven village not too far away from the Elfanno Empire. Ayato received the kindness of all of them by following her but her true intention was to guard and protect her until at the elf village they mentioned.

Seriate...
