Chapter 2: The Elf Youth and the Fairy Girl
In the remote border region of the Galba Empire, the young dark elf named Aelusdro had taken on the role of a military officer in the Nagal region. However, Aelusdro faced hardships right from the start. He was refused when he asked people for help in preserving rations due to being a dark elf. With his inability to adapt to sunlight, he needed a parasol to go outside during the day. Nevertheless, Aelusdro knew that he had chosen this path for himself and never regretted it.
"...There must be a place of solace on this earth. I came here believing in that... But still, I haven't found it yet."
"Dark elves are despised around the world, so it's natural that there are few places of solace for us," replied Marianne. She was the first human who accepted Aelusdro. Despite being a villainess herself, he sensed her kind nature for accepting a dark elf.
"So, until you find a place where you belong, please stay here."
"Yes," Aelusdro agreed. For now, he would settle down in the Nagal region.
Meanwhile, in the Galba Empire...
"Haa... haa...!" A young elf man and a fairy girl were being pursued by imperial soldiers. The man navigated through the trees, carefully observing his surroundings while hiding. The girl stayed close to him.
"The Galba Empire despises us. If they find us, they will surely kill us. Ellie, please stay quiet," the man said.
Ellie nodded and hid inside the man's backpack.
Eventually, the imperial soldiers arrived near the bushes where the young man was hiding. After scanning the area and confirming that no one was there, they left.
"It seems they finally retreated."
"Phew, I thought we were done for a moment there."
Ellie emerged from the backpack.
"The Galba Empire is such a terrible empire. They consider all non-human races as livestock."
"That has always been the case, but it has worsened since Belhart ascended the throne."
"We need to escape as soon as possible!"
As Ellie hid back in the backpack, the young man started running again.
Meanwhile, Aelusdro and Marianne had entered the forest once again to gather provisions. The vegetation was lush, and numerous fairies and spirits floated in the air, while animals filled the area with liveliness.
"Marianne, can you fight?"
"I didn't acquire the Gunslinger class for nothing."
Marianne took out two pistols from her waist.
"Well, you're also capable of fighting, aren't you?"
"I'm skilled with a sword."
"Alright, let's go!"
Led by Marianne, Aelusdro and the others proceeded through the forest. Suddenly, someone leaped out of the bushes. It was a young elf with long silver hair and distinctive pointed ears. His bag seemed inflated, indicating that someone was inside.
"...!"
The elf quickly raised his staff in surprise and pointed it towards Aelusdro.
"W-Wait! We are not enemies!"
"Dark elves are here too... Are you not going to harm me?"
"Rudolf, behind you!"
Upon being called Rudolf by Ellie, the young man turned to look behind in the bushes. The next moment, imperial soldiers appeared.
"There he is! An elf!"
"We must capture him and take him to Lord Lucas!"
"Hmph, who do you think I am?"
Marianne aimed her pistols at the imperial soldiers.
"Prepare to be riddled with bullets!"
Marianne's shots pierced through the imperial soldiers. Unfazed, the soldiers aimed their muskets and fired, but Aelusdro blocked them with his shield. Ellie manipulated light to blind the soldiers, while Rudolf unleashed a blade of wind. The imperial were forced to soldiers retreated.
"Thank you very much. I never expected the imperial soldiers to chase us all the way here... However, we don't have time to talk right now. We need to escape quickly."
"Then let us go to the Nagal region together."
"Where is that?"
"Right here. Follow me."
Aelusdro guided Rudolf and Ellie to the Nagal region.
"It's settled then. I am Marianne Freudenstein. This is Aelusdro, a military officer."
"...Nice to meet you."
"I'm Rudolf. And this here is Ellie, a fairy."
"Nice to meet you!"
And so, Rudolf and Ellie joined their group in the Nagal region. Interestingly, they were recruited by Marianne as civil servants.
