BXBX NOVEL Chapter 18 - 18
Chapter 18: Chapter 18
Noboru\'s eyes turned to anger. "Drakaroth, you stay hidden. I am going to save those women," he said as the Dragon nodded, knowing its voice would alert the guards. Noboru silently jumped among the trees of the forest. When the carriage was out of range from the soldiers stationed by, Noboru channeled Omni energy into his sword and shot a beam of lightning at the horses, killing them. Noboru then jumped down as the guards came out.
"Noboru Chikara! Shin Sama warned us you might come, Black Star Knight, but I am not surprised that a beast like you would be defending other lower life forms," a voice said coming from the carriage. Noboru\'s eyes narrowed.
"Civilian Council Member Izuna. I should have expected such actions from you," Noboru said, his voice turning cold. "I am going to say this once: let the women in the carriage go, or the next thing you and those Magic Knights will see is Hell."
"You think I am scared of you, beast? You have no power. You\'re just a soul with no power. Lord Meiyo and Kouki are the ones with power," Izuna said as he turned to the knights. "What are you waiting for? Kill the beast."
The two magic knights aimed their hands; one had a wand and created a magic circle that sent ice at Noboru, while the other held up his hand and a red magic circle appeared, unleashing a torrent of power. Noboru activated his Gensogan, and the attacks turned into nothing but mere illusions. Noboru then, with speed alone, instantly appeared behind the first Magic Knight, the ice user, and tapped his shoulder and disappeared, reappearing in his original position as the man shot a magic beam of ice behind him.
"Hey, what are you doing? He\'s over there," the fire Knight said.
"He was just behind me," the ice Knight said.
"You goddamn useless knight. Do what I pay you for and kill him," Izuna yelled.
Noboru got bored and decided to end this. He instantly appeared between the knights and channeled lightning, stabbing it into the heart of the ice user and blocking a punch from the enraged fire knight.
"No, you killed..." The fire knight couldn\'t finish his sentence as the Black Star Blade coated in lightning pierced his heart. Noboru then looked at Izuna, who was shaking in fear.
"Stay away from me, beast. You will regret killing me. I am important; the Pheonix Kingdom won\'t stand for this," Izuna said, backing up as Noboru walked toward him, the wind coating his blade as Noboru lifted the sword above his head, and Izuna\'s back was against his carriage.
"How does it feel, Izuna, to have your back against the wall like you made me when I was four? Did you enjoy torturing a four-year-old? Never mind, I can see in your eyes you did," Noboru said as he brought the blade coated in wind down, cutting Izuna in half. "Pathetic to think I feared you once."
Noboru then walked to the back of the carriage and saw the elven women bound. They were drugged up and out of it. Noboru was disgusted; such pure maidens were reduced to such a state. Noboru put his hand on them, channeling his omni energy. He used a healing technique he had developed that restored the body and mind to its prime, called "Full Heal." As soon as they were healed, they backed up.
"Stay away, human."
"You keep your filthy hands away from us."
"Oh god, your kind disgraces me."
Noboru frowned. "Don\'t worry; I saved you. The bad men are dead," Noboru said with a small smile as the women started to throw their hands and slap the air, which was the most unintimidating thing ever, but Noboru backed up, giving the women some time to process.
"Why should we believe you?"
"Your kind only cares for our bodies."
"Our people are suffering because of you, human."
Noboru sighed. "I know, but that\'s why I\'m here. I will save the Forbidden Regions from the three Kingdoms. I am Noboru Chikara." Noboru said, only to dodge an incoming projectile, a bottle the soldier was throwing. "Hey, what was that for?" Noboru asked with a pout, showing he was still an 11-year-old, almost making the elven women coo.
"You\'re part of that family, the family responsible for all this," one of the women said as Noboru frowned.
"If it helps, I was disowned. I just came here to free you and tell you that you can go to any nearby village east from here, and they have been liberated by me," Noboru said as one of the elven women, the youngest, spoke up.
"Big sis Celestia, he is not lying, and he doesn\'t have any bad intentions like the other men," she said as the women were confused but quickly calmed down.
"We would like that, but I would rather fight for my Kingdom. I am Celestia, Alfheim\'s Holy Knight. I will go alongside you to help liberate Alfheim if that\'s what your goal is," Celestia said as Noboru thought about it. Although he would prefer to be alone, it would be beneficial to have someone who knows her way around the place.
"Fine, but only you. The rest will be liabilities. Your little sister and the other will have to leave for the village. My dragon, Drakaroth, will take them someplace safe," Noboru said.
"That is agreeable, but Noboru Chikara, if you betray us and something happens to my sister, I will kill you myself," said Celestia as Noboru smiled.
"I\'d expect nothing less," Noboru said as he escorted them to his hiding area where Drakaroth was. When they arrived, the elven women almost screamed before Noboru and Celestia quieted them down. "Shush, you\'re going to get us caught. That\'s Drakaroth. He\'s my pet, or son since I hatched him from an egg. He will escort Celes and..." Noboru was cut off.
"I normally don\'t give my name to humans, but since you\'re helping us, my name is Angelica," Angelica said as Noboru nodded.
"Right, as I was
saying, Drakaroth will take Celes and Angelica to the nearest place I have liberated from the three Kingdoms. I believe that it was the Lizardman village near the swamps," Noboru said, in a thinking position.
"What do you mean swamp...?" Angelica was cut off as Celestia threw her on Drakaroth, and Celes hopped on.
"Yay! Hello, Mr. dragon," Celes said as Noboru nodded, and Drakaroth started walking away. Noboru and Celestia watched as Drakaroth left quickly.
"Your sister\'s quite lively for someone who has been treated..." Noboru was cut off.
"She wasn\'t. We hid her existence and sheltered her, but due to our father\'s mistake, she was found, and the next day she was to be sold. It\'s one of the reasons I am grateful to you. You see, my family is a high elf, and every time we have sex, we lose our purity, which means we can\'t heal the forests since our mana is corrupted, like we are meant to, which endangers our species since we need a mana-filled forest as well as mana-filled fruits and herbs to survive," Celestia said. Noboru was actually caught off guard by the information he had learned. No wonder the elves were creatures of legend, and Grandpa had told him their fruits, vegetables, herbs, and even normal leaves in their forest had so much potential. Thinking about it made Noboru mad when he realized that for their own sexual fetishes, the three Kingdoms were going to make such a beautiful race\'s existence go extinct.
"So Celes is your people\'s only hope. What about you? Did they..." Noboru was cut off.
"YES, THEY DID. YOUR PEOPLE, THE HUMANS, THEY PINNED ME DOWN AND... AND..." Celestia yelled but quickly silenced herself as Noboru grabbed her and jumped onto a tree, putting her down. They then heard footsteps nearby.
"I heard a female screaming; it sounded like that High Elf bitch we fucked a year ago," a male soldier\'s voice was heard. Celestia\'s eyes widened, recognizing the voice.
