Chapter 4: Metz

//AN: I made a small mistake in a character classification, Ernst Kaltenbrunner is not Obergruppenführer but Reichsführer-SS.

Inside a room at the Alsace-Lorraine Border Outpost, the Commander of the Deutsche Kaiserliche Garde was looking at the elves who were in front of him, he had several Imperial Guards in the room to prevent them from trying to do anything suspicious.

But the most important ones in front of him were Eliara, the Dark Elf Knight, the Elven King Elion Yelfir and the Elven Princess Gweyir Yelfir, the Elven King and Princess were a little uncomfortable with the serious gaze of the Commander and the Imperial Guards, who only they waited for a suspicious movement to shoot them.

Elion was a tall elf with blond hair and green eyes, white skin, and wore very expensive silk clothes that were a mixture of Red and Purple.

Gweyir was an elf with hair and eyes like her brother, but she was the size of a normal human and wore a white dress with some ornaments and precious gems.

"So...'elves', where did you come from?" Asked the Commander while holding his Luger P08, the elves could already understand what the Germans said because of the Translation Magic, so they could communicate without problems.

But even so, they couldn't help but find their language quite... strange, as it seemed they were being insulted every second, of all the human languages they knew, this was the strangest possible, besides how Eliara said about their flag, it was one they had never seen before.

"We are from the Elven Realm of Unal Ancalen, I am King Elion Yelfir, nice to meet you, sir....." Said Elion in a cordial and respectful way, because he didn't want to displease the man in front of him, even if he didn't understand why the Germans were using "Sticks with Iron" he decided to be wise and not comment on it.

For during his time as King, before receiving the Coup d'état he knew that the Dwarf Nations were developing rapidly, in addition to knowing about the so-called "guns" that the dwarves were creating using gunpowder as a main part, so it could be the same for the humans in front of him, but he didn't understand why they weren't wearing armor and only helmets.

"I am Otto Schmidt, First lieutenant of the German Imperial Guard and Commander of this Outpost, now tell me, where is this 'Unal Ancalen'? I have never heard of this nation in Europe and especially of its race of 'elves' " Said Ottos seriously, many questions were going through his mind, could it be that they were a race that was hiding on Earth? Or did something happen while the Germans were focused on their Civil War?

"Europe? Is that what your people call the Lepliunas Continent?" Elion asked with a raised eyebrow, he kept wondering how these humans don't know about the Elven Race, did they get isolated from the rest of the world or something?

Now both sides were at an impasse, as no one knew what to say or answer, Lieutenant Otto was almost having an existential crisis, as he had many questions appearing in his mind.

"I...will have to communicate with Central Command and report about this, wait here." Said Otto as he got up and ran to the communication station, this news is very important for the Kaiserreich and the German People.

After Otto communicated with the Central Command of the Deutsche Kaiserliche Garde, the superiors ordered him to bring the foreigners to go to Munich, where from there they will go to Berlin by rail.

But even though Otto said they were from a different Race, the Central Command didn't believe that much and would wait and see, if he was telling the truth then nothing would happen and he might even get promoted, but if it's a lie, well... .the Deutsche Kaiserliche Garde does not accept liars among its ranks.

Then King Elion and his entourage would be taken to Munich by carriage, as it was faster and more practical, which surprised them, as they had never seen an "Iron Chariot" moving without horses, the King even asked one of the Mages from his entourage felt some magic used, the mage's response surprised and worried him and his entourage.

"N-no, Your Majesty, I don't feel any Magic Core or even a Shred of Magic" Said the Mage who was shaking with worry, which was quite understandable for Elion and Princess Gweyir.

"Elder Brother..." Said Gweyir worriedly as she looked at her brother, who nodded seriously, such technology would be quite coveted by Kingdoms and Empires around the world.

They then got into the vehicles and were taken to the nearest city they had in the region where they were on the Alsace-Lorraine border, which was Metz.

During the trip the elves saw how fast the vehicles of the Germans were, in a few hours they managed to arrive in the city of Metz, there the elves saw buildings following the European/Germanic Standard, many citizens taking care of their lives, but some saw them and they were surprised and frightened.

While the entourage being escorted by the Germans was approaching the Deutsche Kaiserliche Garde Garrison at Metz, where they would then later use the rail system to go to Munich and then Berlin.

On the way to the Garrison, the elves saw several German soldiers patrolling, but they also saw men in Brown Uniforms with a Red Band on their arms, which carried the symbol of the NPDAP, in other places they saw the same but being led by men wearing Military Uniforms Black and who also had the Red Belt with the Symbol of the NPDAP, they were the SA and SS who was with the Army keeping order in the City.

When they arrived at the Deutsche Kaiserliche Garde Garde, they were escorted to the Garrison Commander's office, there they saw an elderly man in an Officer's Uniform, he had a white beard and was smoking a cigar, in addition to having a scar over his left eye.

"First Lieutenant Schmidt...apparently you weren't lying about there being another race." Said the Garrison Commander while looking seriously at Otto and the elves behind him.

"Captain von Altman" Otto gives a military salute to Altman, this made the elves understand that he was superior to Otto.

"You must be the Elf King that First Lieutenant Schmidt spoke to, I am Captain Johan von Altman" Johan said as he extended his hand to the Elf King, who did not understand the gesture.

"Your Majesty, this is a human gesture to greet, you have to shake his hand" Said Eliara in Elion's ear, who understood and was quick to shake Johan's hand so as not to be rude.

"The train you will use to go to Munich will come tomorrow morning, until then you will be our guests, we have already been informed of your numbers so we have the rooms ready." Johan said as he withdrew his hand, Elion nodded in understanding.

"I thank you, Captain" Said Elion as they were taken by some Imperial Guards to the rooms where they will be staying.

Soon the elves were taken to the best rooms within the Garrison and were amazed at the technology they had.

While the elves marveled at what was in the rooms, Johan and Otto were talking alone in the office.

"First Lieutenant Schmidt, you will be in charge of these 'elves' while you are in Munich and the Capital" Johan said seriously as he looked into Otto's eyes, who nodded and saluted.

"Understood, Captain" Said Otto seriously, he knew that this job was his opportunity to be promoted.

"Dismissed" Johan said as he sat in his chair, when Otto left his office and closed the door, he waited a little longer before picking up the phone on his desk to call Central Command.

"This is Captain Johan von Altman, it's confirmed, the foreigners are not human, yes, I've already assigned First Lieutenant Schmidt to the task...understood, Für Den Kaiser" Johan said as he hung up the phone afterward and sighed, the situation was getting out of control.
