24 Entering An Area That Is Not Necessarily Safe

Arzlan was surprised by a very extraordinary sight, he saw a field surrounded by large rocks.

The waterfall that came down was like a curtain to hold his eyes from seeing the extraordinary sight.

"What place is this?" Arzlan was pensive, his eyes couldn't take his eyes off the sight he saw, the dense trees with green grass really spoiled his eyes.

Arzlan returned to the cave.

People stare at Arzlan when he comes out of the cave. They have the same gaze, namely curiosity so great that Arzlan's words are eagerly awaited by them.

The elven boy and girl approached Arzlan.

"How? What do you see?" asked the woman in a tone filled with enthusiasm.

"All you hear is the sound of water splashing down from above."

Hearing that, people were amazed, what Arzlan said was true or just nonsense.

"In this cave there is another road that leads to an area of ​​forest and wide grass. I want all of you to come with me to inspect the area."

Everyone looked at each other, they were indeed curious but the fear still alighted within them. Of course, a strange place they had never been to might have some danger waiting.

"S-Master!" The young man dared to speak.

"What is wrong?"

"Is the area safe enough to visit?" The questions that came out of his mouth represented the questions of all the elves.

"I can't be sure, but if you guys believe me then we should check it out now!" Arzlan was unable to guarantee their safety, but if it was indeed a safe place it would certainly be a comfort to replace their destroyed village.

"A-Alright! I believe in Master!" The young man said in an enthusiastic tone. "I want you to gather the villagers, I want them to hear what I have to say!"

"Okay!"

In a few minutes the villagers were already lined up neatly. In front of them was Arzlan, at the moment for the first time Arzlan became a leader.

"I want you to hear my short comments! Listen, on the inner side of this cave there is an area filled with forests and vast green fields! The place is very suitable to live in, but I can't be sure if the place is very safe. I'd like you guys to come with me for the time being to make sure that the place is fit for habitation. If there are villagers or monsters inhabiting the place, we will continue our journey!"

Arzlan was very loud in his voice even though this was the first time he had spoken like that. Normally, whenever he spoke in public people would stare at him and laugh at what he said, but now things were different. They were stunned to hear Arzlan's words, the loud voice silenced their mouths and thrilled the soul in their bodies.

Next, after the speech that Arzlan delivered. They flocked to enter the cave with Arzlan leading the way.

When outside the cave they were truly amazed by the incredible view of the forest that seemed to stretch far away.

"Wow… so this is what Mr. Arzlan called!" said the young man with unblinking eyes.

Then they returned to continue their journey down, on the right side there was a path that would lead them to the lower area.

They were still amazed by the beautiful scenery that came from the forest, they even almost forgot that on the left side there was a ravine, of course it could cost their lives.

Their feet reached land overgrown with green grass, they looked around. The waterfall that continuously lowers the water is like music to their ears.

"Master!" The elf woman approached Arzlan. "Now what are we going to do?"

Arzlan watched everyone. Their faces still flashed a sense of amazement at the place they had just met.

"You guys stay here! I'll check the area around!"

"Eh? Isn't that dangerous sir?" chirps the elf youth.

"Calm down, I'll be right back! If I don't come back in the next few hours you better get out of this area! There might be trouble coming!"

"B-But…." He actually couldn't accept Arzlan's decision, but seeing Arzlan's gaze, he was unable to say anything.

"Wait! If you want to go check this place out then take me!" The elf woman showed eye's that she would be of use to Arzlan.

"Here they need people who have the ability to move their hearts! If I don't come back you will be their leader!" Arzlan does not want to harm others for the actions he has taken.

"Are you underestimating me?" asked the woman in a serious tone.

"What? I never underestimated you!"

"Then let me come with you! I don't have the abilities you mentioned earlier leading everyone here won't be easy! It's only you who can do it. So you can't die! I'm here to protect you no matter what."

"Don't be excessive, keep the energy you have to yourself! I don't need your help!" Arzlan immediately denied the woman's great confidence, indeed he appreciated the enthusiasm that came out of her mouth, but that didn't mean he had to be protected by others. Even Arzlan would rather die than have to stay alive in a world that always gives tears of blood in his heart.

"Eh..." Hearing Arzlan's words, she seemed to feel unappreciated, but she understood that Arzlan's words actually meant that she should not focus on other people.

"I never expected that you would sacrifice yourself for someone like me. Keep your energy and mind to yourself!"

After saying Arzlan started walking away.

The woman was pensive for a while before she flashed a smile and said, "He really is an extraordinary man!"

The forest they entered was quite deserted. There were no animals in sight, there was only silence that made goosebumps.

Arzlan didn't feel anything except a strange air that seemed to be watching of them.

"Ugh!" The woman beside Arzlan suddenly got into a stance ready to attack.

"What is wrong?" asked Arzlan.

"Up ahead it looks like someone is walking towards us!"

Arzlan and the woman were waiting for what was really in front of them. The figure of a person can indeed be seen from a distance, the figure is getting closer when the forest runs out to cover her. Very clearly a woman wearing a green dress was smiling at them.
