I Became a Different World Gravity Wizard

82 – Elf

I was stunned by the unexpected identity of the coachman and looked at her.

Then she slightly turned her head to see Fenia’s reaction.

Fenia would have noticed that she hid her true identity with her magic.

“… ….”

But for some reason, Fenia had a puzzled expression that was not usually seen.

As if she didn’t know that Sophia also used her magic to hide her appearance.

And Fenia’s eyes collided with me out of thin air.

“Penia. Didn’t you know too?”

“… ….”

Seeing that she didn’t say anything, it seemed like Fenia really didn’t notice her magic.

“Well, I did use too much magic yesterday.”

Even though she drank the recovery potion and got some good sleep, her body hasn’t fully recovered yet.

That’s why it wasn’t incomprehensible that he couldn’t notice Sophia’s sophisticated magic.

“I’m lacking in other magic compared to my younger siblings, but I’m confident with change magic.”

As she said that, she smiled like she was having fun.

When I checked the mana flowing from her, it seemed that she had no great talent for other magic except for her transformation magic.

I looked up and looked at the emperor and the princesses.

I didn’t feel like a strong person like Fenia or Allin from them.

‘No. There was at least one, though.’

I slightly turned my head and looked at the second princess, Claire, who was lying on the chair.

A woman with a bored face, similar to the expressionless Aline.

However, her skills far surpassed those of Helena and Sophia, and she had a talent for magic that was difficult to deal with unless she was a high-ranking wizard.

But, except for her, they didn’t seem to have any skills in swords and magic.

Still, did they say that a seat makes a person?

The sense of intimidation felt by the people in front of me made me shrink unconsciously.

They were so magnificent that even daring to make eye contact felt disrespectful.

However, our party was also a formidable figure, and did not bow down at all to those in front of us.

And if you know that fact too, you look at us with an interesting face.

“The Marquis said he could read the language of elves, is that true?”

“Yes. Although feeble, he can read the language of the elves.”

“Whoa. Even our imperial translators have a hard time interpreting the elven language, so I’m looking forward to it.”

Saying that, Sophia turned her head to look at Helena, who was sitting next to her. And meeting her eyes without saying a word, Helena gave her a light nod.

“Then it will be inconvenient to keep you standing still, so let’s get to work right away.”

At the same time as the word “Start,” Helena stood up.

And with the sound of her little shoes she walked in front of her and lightly flicked her hand.

Kikii Profit.

Then the wall, which had been ordinary until just a moment ago, began to move, and a new door appeared.

“Follow me inside.”

And as soon as he finished speaking, he immediately went down the stairs to the basement.

I was watching her in a daze for a moment. I regained my senses and nodded her head and followed her.

“Let’s move too.”

Before following Helena down to the basement, I slightly turned my head to look at the emperor and Sophia, who were still sitting.

Anyway, the two didn’t seem to have any intention of going underground with us.

It was as if he heard an unspoken voice telling him to finish what he was entrusted with.

Furthermore, if this case is resolved, the next emperor is very likely to be Helena.

So Sophia deliberately refused to help her.

On the contrary, they are looking at us with interest, but deep down, it was clear that we would not succeed and hope.

“Aren’t you following me?”

As I was lost in thought for a while, I heard a small voice from behind.

When I turned my head, Claire, who I don’t know when was behind me, was looking up at me.

Does Claire want to come along too?

“Do you intend to accompany Claire-sama too?”

“Yes.”

Okay. She has no interest in anything like the next emperor.

She seemed interested in just being able to talk to elves, and she seemed to be following us.

I gave her a short nod and immediately moved her feet so that Helena and her party would not wait.

Ttogak. Again.

I had to go down for a long time because the basement was quite deep, and every time I moved my footsteps echoed through the basement.

Helena and her party went down first, so they couldn’t be seen.

Because of that, it was quite inconvenient to have to go down the stairs in the dark where not a single light could be seen.

I turned my head slightly and looked at Claire.

If it were her, she could use magic that could light up the basement, but she seemed to have no intention of using it, so she slowly went down the stairs.

But my eyes still haven’t adapted to the darkness, so I channeled my magic into the pendant hanging around my neck.

Fire-!

Then, flame magic rose from the pendant that responded to my magic.

Thanks to that, the dark basement began to look bright.

‘The flames are bigger than before.’

When I first received the pendant from Elise and used it, a palm-sized flame rose.

However, the size of the flame was huge enough to cover the body of a strong young man, perhaps thanks to the experience of various incidents and the training of magic.

The duration was longer than before, so we were able to descend safely underground.

“Oh.”

Claire gave out a short exclamatory voice in the middle, but she didn’t pay much attention and went down the stairs.

The basement, which seemed endless, suddenly appeared on the floor, and the backs of familiar people began to appear.

“It must have been quite dark, but I didn’t fall and came down well.”

“Where is the master who goes down first knowing that?”

“Still, did you come down safely?”

“Huh.”

I let out a short sigh and she shrugged her shoulders and smiled lightly.

“Are you ready?”

“Prepare something.”

“Are you ready to see an elf for the first time?”

“… ….”

She nodded wordlessly, and Fenia nodded her head as well, and she slightly ducked her body to the side.

Then she saw a stranger in the place where she had been standing a while ago.

A woman who is severely skinny, probably because her arms and legs are restrained by her chains, and she hasn’t eaten for days.

But she has unusually long ears unlike anyone I’ve seen before.

And a beautiful face that seems to have been carefully crafted by God himself.

However, the eyes of the elf who met me were glaring at me with eyes full of death that I had never seen before.

I involuntarily swallowed dry saliva at the sight of the elf I had never seen before and the elf staring at me as if to kill me.

Did he notice that I was a little nervous?

Fenia looked at my face like that and she gave a small smile and then walked towards the elf.

And she naturally talked to her as if she were talking to people in the market.

“Hello? Are you okay?”

An elf resents the humans who take his family as slaves.

That’s why she thought that she would make a living while watching Fenia greet her with a clear greeting.

“You, you…… !”

However, contrary to my expectations, the distorted face of the elf was stained with bewilderment.

It was as if he was surprised to learn who Fenia was.

“Oops. You seem to know who I am.”

“The Archmage Penia… …. I cannot forget the benefactor who saved my clan.”

The elf’s eyes began to soften after recognizing Fenia.

Anyway, Fenia seemed to have had a relationship with the elves before.

“Fortunately, I seem to have memories of that time. So what’s your name?”

“…… Phila.”

The elf introduced himself as Fila.

“Yes. Phila. So why did she suddenly appear in the center after living in hiding in the West?”

“… ….”

However, Pilar did not open his mouth easily at Fenia’s question.

And she looks at Fenia with wary eyes, though not her eyes full of flesh from a moment ago.

However, despite such a reaction, Fenia calmly opened her mouth without any reaction.

“I came here to help you again. Besides, I’m the only one here who can understand what you’re saying. So feel free to talk.”

Fena met her eyes for a while, and she let out a deep sigh, and she opened her mouth with a flash in her lively eyes from a moment ago.

“They set fire to our residence and started kidnapping random members of the clan.”

“Guys?”

“I don’t know exactly who I am either. However, they suddenly appeared one day and started attacking us using ominous magic. If it was an ordinary intruder, it would have been easy to subdue them, but in the end, they abandoned their residence and fled to the center due to a larger number than expected and powerful magic.”

As expected.

I know who she is talking about.

Crazy guys trying to awaken the ancient monsters that are sealed away using the corpses of elves.

“Those are the warlocks.”

For a moment, without realizing it, the thought came out of my mouth.

“… ….”

But for some reason, my answer caused an awkward silence in the basement.

Fenia and the elf, who had been talking casually a while ago, were looking at me with disbelief eyes.

When I slightly turned my head, not only Helena and Rayman, but even Aline were looking at me with wide open eyes.

Why is everyone suddenly staring at me in silence?

As I tilted my head at the behavior of those I couldn’t understand, Rayman broke the silence and carefully opened his mouth.

“The Marquis can understand the conversations of the elves……. No, can you use the words of an elf?”

Raman’s words made me realize it belatedly.

I naturally understood the conversation in the language of the elves, and the fact that the words I had just spoken were in the language of the elves.
