Race Knowing that the village he was going to was going to be completely destroyed , Jack decided to get there immediately . For that, Jack used teleportation magic to quicken his pace.
“ Teleportation ZAP ! " Jack asked while glancing back .
[ This is Garholm forest , home to the Orc and Goblin race . ]
Then , not far from where Jack was standing looks like a gate-like building equipped with a wall made of wood.
" That must be the gate of Lumina village . " Jack said briefly .
" It is possible that something that destroyed the village was the Orc or Goblin race . " He added .
[That possibility is very big. Moreover , Lumina village is very close to Garholm forest . ]
Without waiting too long , Jack then walked towards the direction of the gate . Once there , Jack paused to see the extent of the damage .
" Hm , looks really bad . " Jack said , looking at the partially destroyed gate .
[What do you want to do sir? ]
" I want to fix it . " Jack replied .
Without waiting too long , Jack then cast magic to repair the gate .

Reconstruction " Instantly a magic circle appeared on the ground and signaled the start of the gate repair process . Not finished repairing the gate , Jack then turned to the wooden wall surrounding Lumina village . Parallel Magic Circle "
" Reconstruction " This time , Jack used magic combined with techniques doubling the magic circle aims to speed up the process of repairing a certain object / object. Parallel Magic Circle is a technique that Jack learned during his active game Questhunt. In the past, one of the senior players who was also a friend of Jack taught this technique while working on missions together. Although it looks very useful , this technique has one fatal weakness . The weakness in question is that this technique will consume a lot of mana because you have to make a lot of magic circles simultaneously.
[Isn't that technique very draining, Sir? ]
" Yes I know , but there is no other way I can do it . Because , there are no qualified wizards in this village . " Jack replied . Without waiting too long , the village gate and the wooden walls surrounding the village have been repaired and no longer show signs of damage as before .
" Ah , finally finished . " Jack said relieved as he wiped the sweat off his forehead . Unbeknownst to Jack , from the start there were two pairs of eyes watching his movements before even entering the gates of Lumina village . After everything was done , Jack decided to take a walk around the village gate while surveying the area .
[Sir, there have been 2 elves watching your movements. ]
" Really ? Leave it alone ! " Jack said calmly .
Meanwhile ...
You can see a pair of elves consisting of men and women running very fast behind the trees in Lumina village. Apparently , the two of them were about to report the incident they had just seen . Namely , the Jack incident in which a human entered the territory of the Elf race without permission .
" Open the door ! " Ordered one of the guard elves seeing that two of his subordinates had returned .
" Ellion , Syllia why are you guys in such a hurry ? What have you just seen at the village gate ? Orcs ? " asked the elf guard in surprise .
" Worse than that , Eldyn . We both saw humans . " Answered one of the elf scouts breathlessly .
" Wh - what .. ! Quickly report this to the village chief and the elders . I will guard here .
" Eldyn the village guard said in shock .
As soon as Eldyn finished speaking, the two of them immediately entered a cave at the foot of the mountain that had a closed door
made of thick iron. Eldyn immediately ordered all the elves who were near him to get ready even though he didn't know the full story about what happened at the village gate. In the cave which is now functioning as the residence of the elves from Lumina village, the head of Lumina village and 4 elves who are called village elders gather. The five of them looked tense waiting for the report to be given by the scout elf who was on duty around the gate of Lumina village.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
" Come in ! " Said one of the village elders . As soon as they got permission , Ellion and Syllia entered the village chief 's house together .
" Our respects to the village chief and the village elders . " Ellion said as he bowed followed by Syllia at his side .
" Enough , now you guys report your observations while out there . " Ordered the village head of Lumina .
" During the day we saw humans coming into the village area through the Garholm forest . " Ellion said firmly .
" Wh - what ? ! Why didn't you guys kill him at that time ? ! " shouted one of the village elders .
" Wait a moment , Elder Folduin . We need to get a full explanation from Ellion before we can make a decision . " The village chief said reassuringly to one of the village elders .
After all had calmed down , the village chief again invited Ellion to continue the report that had previously been delayed .
" At first we wanted to ambush him , but in the end that intention was not carried out after seeing what the human had done . " Ellion said again explaining his report .
" Sorry if I cut you off , what did he do to stop you from setting up an ambush ? " Asked the village head cutting off Ellion 's explanation .
" We saw the humans repairing the village gate and the wooden walls surrounding Lumina village . " Ellion continued .
" Is that true ? " asked the village head enthusiastically .
" That 's right , chief . We saw it for ourselves . " Ellion replied .
" Then , he is not a bad human . We can invite him to this place . " Said the Village Chief .
" Wait a moment , Chief . I think that was a rash act . It is possible that he did just that to trick us . " Elder Folduin said .
" It is better if we catch him first and then interrogate him until we are sure that humans are not evil . " Elder Folduin continued .
" We also agree with Elder Folduin , village head . " Answered one of the village elders . For a moment the atmosphere in the village head's house became silent.
" In that case , it has been decided that the humans who are currently at the village gates must be arrested . " Elder Folduin said breaking the silence .
Next , Elder Folduin ordered Ellion to capture the humans who were at the village gate alive . He is also allowed to include Eldyn and his troops to help with his duties. Upon receiving the order , Ellion and Syllia rushed back to where Eldyn was with the aim of inviting him to catch Jack .
" Eldyn , I have received orders from Elder Folduin to capture the humans I told you about earlier . " Ellion said as he approached Eldyn.
" Bring all the soldiers you have . " continued Ellion .
" All right , but who will look after this place ? " Eldyn asked Ellion .
" Gather all the adult elves in this place and cast a barrier magic using this magic item . " Ellion commanded Eldyn as he handed a magic item to him .
A few moments later, 30 adult elves gathered. Eldyn then ordered the adult elves to guard the cave. Not to forget, Eldyn also armed them with bows and spears. After all the preparatio
ns were finished, Ellion, Syllia, Eldyn and their troops moved towards the gates of Lumina village to meet Jack. What will happen to Jack next?
