Chapter 194 Envoy 2 (1/2)

Blood splattered as the sword Amelia held flew off along with the hand holding her sword

”AAAGGGHHH!!!”

an agonized cry sounded out in the room as Amelia kneeled down clutching her right arm, Mars shock the blood off the blade of his sword and sheathed it again before he spoke

”you know I really hate being mistaken for a human so don't call that again, understood?”

”I'll kill you I swear I'll kill you!”

”apparently not...”

Mars gave a sigh and picked up the severed hand from the small pool of blood it laid in before he walked over to Amelia

”don't come any closer!”

”come on now, I mean no harm”

with that sentence Mars ignored Amelia cries, punches and kicks as he grabbed her right arm and pressed the severed hand against it before he activated his [Energy: healing] skill and reattached her hand

”there, all better”

”eh..?”

Amelia looked down at her hand that had been reattached with wide eyes, Mars ignored her wonder and amazement and looked her straight in the eyes before he commanded

”try moving your fingers for me”

”o-okay...”

Amelia's fingers moved, but slowly and without much strength which caused Mars to click his tongue

”shit the tendons are still severed... hold still”

Mars grabbed her arm again and reactivated his healing skill, this time with the max amount of energy units, a soft glow enveloped Amelia's arm for a moment before Mars began feeling her arm as he once again commanded

”try moving you fingers again”

”okay...”

Amelia moved her fingers again, this time there was no problem, Mars gave a nod and looked into Amelia's ruby eyes and said with a wide smile on his face

”next time you point a blade against me I won't heal you afterwards”

”o-okay”

Amelia gave a meek nod as she watched Mars with wonder in her eyes, she had never seen a healing skill so powerful as the one Mars had just used, plus she had been practicing with her sword ever since she was able to hold it and she could just barely see Mars' sword, to put it simply they were on different levels, there was also the faint pressure she felt whenever she looked at him. Amelia considered her next words carefully before she eventually decided to introduce herself

”my name is Amelia, I'm here as an envoy to ask Green river for help”

Mars gave a nod

”my name is Mars, I'm the leader all of Green river's military personal and technological development, I'm here to hear you out in place of the elders”

Amelia paled slightly, if she knew Mars was such a high ranking person in Green river she would never have attacked him when he walked into the room

”...sorry”

”oh you're sorry? about what?”

”...never mind”

Amelia lowered her head when she saw Mars' serious expression, he clearly didn't want to accept an apology from her so she decided to drop it and took a seat at the table, Mars followed suit and also sat down and looked at Amelia for some time until she began speaking

”Elvers are normally bound to their forest but my people use the plains around our forest to raise livestock”

”I see so the plains are important to you guys...”

”yes, in fact our ablilty to feed our own people have been significantly reduced since Ule annexed the plains around our forest, the cowards also took meany of our people hostage and threatens to sell them into slavery”

'so there's a hostage situation too...'

Mars listened as Amelia explained the situation in detail, it took about an hour for Mars to understand all parts of the conflict, then Mars gave a nod

”I understand now, since the elders have left this matter to me I'll decide if Green river gets involved in it or not, you understand that right Amelia?”

”...yes”
