The World Is Mine For The Taking

Please note that this work of fiction is not safe for work (NSFW). It contains words, scenes, and phrases not suitable for audiences below 18. Be aware. Leon was your typical guy, perceived as weak in his school because his skills hadn't awakened, even though they usually did at the coming of age. He attended the prestigious Milham's Magic Knight Academy, where snagging the top spot meant automatic entry into the esteemed position of a Magic Knight in the country. Unfortunately, Leon found himself in the lower caste, labeled the most useless student. To top it off, he was tossed into a class that served as a sanctuary for oddballs and delinquents. Yet, he couldn't care less, as becoming a Magic Knight wasn't his goal. Everything shifted when he crossed paths with Shredica, a woman hell-bent on becoming a Magic Knight at any cost. Observing Leon's lack of ambition and his apparent detachment from the academy's pursuits, Shredica saw an opportunity. She decided to exploit him as a pawn in her ascent through the academy's hierarchy. Yet, unbeknownst to Shredica, Leon was not the complacent, unremarkable figure she presumed him to be.

Chapter 36 - The Kingdom Of Elves (2)

As we stepped into the kingdom, every elf's gaze fixated on us.

"Is that... Princess?"

"She's returned."

"She's brought a human with her."

"She's got a human. What's happening?"

"And... a male at that...?"

"What's a human male doing here?"

They were staring at me for some reason. I supposed having a human, especially a male, was an extremely rare sight for the elves here.

"The kingdom looks prosperous, huh? I guess my mother is making things happen?" Artemis asked.

"Well, yes," Aegis replied. "The Queen has been trading extensively with the beast people using our metals, which has accelerated our prosperity, even though we remain isolated."

So that's how they were achieving prosperity. The Kingdom of Elves was tightly closed off from the world, even to the inhabitants of the Great Forest. Their success stemmed from trading metals with the beast people, renowned for their astute business acumen.
