Book 1 - Chapter 11: Aria Von Elvins

My name is Aria, Aria Von Elvins. I am the daughter of the king of the elves. I was very beautiful and loved by everyone, whether it was my family, my elven people, even the spirits loved me. But because I was loved too much, they were overprotective of me. I never felt the outside world, all I saw was the luxury of the ancient palace and I could only see the elven society from the palace window.

I tried many times to talk to my parents, I really wanted to be allowed to leave here. But they always refused and one day I was fed up with them.

I escaped from the palace with the help of the spirits, and I was finally able to walk around outside, although I couldn't play freely and couldn't buy food from the elven citizens, I was still very happy that I could be free.

Until a few hours later, my parents might have realized that I wasn't in the palace, because the soldiers started wandering around. Realizing that I went further away from the palace, I didn't care about them, just let them keep looking for me and regretted keeping me in the palace.

Not realizing it, I ran so far that I exited the kingdom through the entrance of the elven kingdom. I had gotten out of the kingdom, and I now only saw a lot of grass and trees. Not only that, there were also a lot of spirits flying around outside.

And it really made me curious, I followed the spirits and arrived at a place where there was a flower growing very beautifully, the flower was ultramarine in color which was very sparkling, many spirits were dancing nearby.

I approached the flower, but without realizing it, someone came. "Oh what's this? An elf?" "Hahaha boss, looks like we're really lucky, not only found a rare flower but also an elf. We can sell them at auction later"

There were five humans who came, they looked scary. I've heard it from my father that humans are an evil race. I immediately ran away from them but a [Fire ball] hit my back.

"Wow, that was a good throw boss"

It hurts... It hurt so much, I groaned in pain. But they immediately caught my hand and dragged me into a cage.

'Someone, please help me'

*****

Once I heard a scream from the humans who kidnapped me, they were screaming in pain 'What's going on over there' I couldn't see because this cage was covered.

But soon the cloth that covered it was opened by someone, 'Who is it? Is it a royal warrior?' but what I saw was a human child, he looked about the same age as me.

He's so beautiful, is he a girl? But judging from her hairstyle, it looks like he's a boy. I saw many fireballs around him, he opened the door of this cage. But I was too scared to confront him.

"It's okay, I won't do anything bad" his voice was very soft, he was a very beautiful boy. But when I saw him again, he became very handsome like the prince in the stories I often read.

He extended his hand to me and I shyly accepted his hand, 'Soft' his hand was very soft as if I wanted to keep hold it.

He was also surrounded by many spirits and liked to stick to him, but he didn't seem to be aware of it.

He asked me a few questions whether I was okay or not, but my mouth couldn't answer him. He dipped his hand in something, I was quite surprised because his hand looked like it was cut but soon his hand came back out while holding a bread, He asked me if I was hungry or not, and I could only answer no by shaking my head. But my damn stomach made a noise, 'damn that's embarrassing' he handed me the bread and I devoured it.

'It's so good'

He strokes my head gently, usually when my father does it I always refuse the strokes on the head. But strangely I don't mind if he does it.

He walked to a place where when I saw the direction he was heading, there was a terrifying aura of darkness. Even the spirits around didn't dare to come close.

I tried to stop his from going near there.

"Don't."

But instead scared he smiling and reassuring me, he continued to walk there and opened the cloth covering the same cage as me.

Because I didn't want to just stand by and watch from afar, I went over to him and got right behind him. He was silent and when I saw what he was looking at, I really wanted to vomit, fear spread throughout my body, the most horrible thing was now right in front of me.

"What is it?"
