23 The Gif (1/2)
Few minutes later, Ryth, Llyod and Hill went out of their assigned house and began to follow the guard to the chief's House.
Once they have arrived in front of the house, Ryth nodded his thanks to the guard as he slightly bowed his head.
”No problem sir,” the guard said hurriedly.
Ryth knocked on the door. And when there was a voice saying to come in, he opened the door, walking inside with Llyod and Hill behind him.
As he entered, he found Fenar sitting on his mat, with a woman beside him. She was wearing a silver robe with a witch hat and a staff on her lap. She looked like she is in her mid thirties, with long silver hair, big blue eyes and red thin lips.
Wood gard and Tregnar were there too, standing behind Fenar, together with another 2 guards beside them.
”Mr. Myrad, Mr. Llyod and Mr. Hill, good morning,” Fenar greeted them, inviting them to sit on the mat. He gave an apologetic smile and said, ”I'm very sorry to call you this early in the morning. Come, have a seat please.”
Woodgard and Tregnar were there too, with 2 guards behind Fenar.
Ryth and the other two greeted back and sat down on the mats.
Ryth waved Fenar's apology away and said, ”it is alright. So, why did you ask us to come? The guard said that you have something for me?”
Fenar nodded. ”Yes, it is something that we, the Dark Elf Tribe, would like to give you for everything you have done for us. And also for the tremendous help that you have given us these past few days.”
Ryth seemed surprised at this. ”Oh, but we do not mind at all.”
Fenar shook his head and continued, ”That won't do. We still would like to give you our gift.”
Looking at his determination and stubborn look, Ryth could only sighed. ”Alright then…”
Fenar nodded and then he introduce the woman beside him. ”Ahh… Before that, I would like to introduce you to Madam Elsa. She is a witch from our village.”
The woman stood up and bowed her head. ”Greetings. I am Madam Elsa. It is a pleasure to meet the saviors of our village.”
Ryth returned back the gesture as he stood up and bowed his head. ”It's a pleasure to meet you too, Madam Elsa. My name is Ryth Myrad. And the two men beside me are Llyod and Hill,” gesturing to the two men who also stood up and bowed.
The four of them then sat back down again.
Madam Elsa opened her hand and a small chest appeared, floating in mid-air. ”On behalf of our village, I would like to gift you with this. This is one of our tribe's greatest skills,” she explained.” Coincidentally, it is of swordman skill class.”
She then waved the chest away softly.
The small chest floated mid-air until it reached in front of Ryth.
Ryth carefully took the small chest with his two hands.
He nodded his thank you at both Fenar and Madam Elsa. ”Thank you, Chief Fenar and Madam Elsa.”
”Hello, nice to meet you too.” Ryth nodded his head.
Fenar laughed heartily, rubbing his chin with his hand. ”I suspected that this skill might be very useful for you. Woodgard and the other elves have told me stories of how you have battled in the dungeon. It amazed me,” he said.
”Not only are you a capable person but I also believed that you have a good heart,” Fenar continued. ”This skill will be better off with you.”
Ryth laughed awkwardly. ”You are exaggerating, Chief Fenar. I'm just a normal man.”
Fenar continued to laugh. ”I like your attitude there, young Master Myrad. Despite being a noble, you are very humble. You don't treat us differently, even if we are not human beings like you.”
He then put on a serious expression on his face. ”Hence, why I agree to let Tregnar and Wood gard helped you in your journey.”
He turned to Tregnar and Hill. ”Isn't that right? You two better give your best to help Young Master Myrad,” he said sternly.
Tregnar and Woodgard stood up straight and said loudly in unison, ”Yes, Chief!”
”Thank you. This means so much to me, ” Ryth said humbly, as he slightly bowed his head to them.
”No problem. I also want to inform that maybe you can start the journey in two days time,” Fenar advised.
”Really?”
”Yes, we will be done, strengthening our defense by then.”
”Okay, Chief Fenar.”
--------------------
After a couple of hours, they were done with the meeting so Ryth and the other two went back to the assigned house.
He walked to his room, sat on his bed and took out the small chest from his inventory.
”I wonder what kind of skill is inside this chest, ku ku ku!”
”Well, lets see, shall we?”
Ryth opened the small chest, and took out the scroll inside. He rolled it open.
