29 Learning From The Elvers 2

"...how many people, outsiders lived in Mother town?"

hearing Mars ask Isabel gave a weak sigh and sat down leaning her back against a tree before she spoke with a quiet voice that was equal part shame and guilt

"...about 5000"

hearing the number Mars closed his eyes and tried to picture it, 5000 people, properly families of men women and children that had lived their whole life in Mother town being dragged from their home and then slaughter like livestock in the streets, and the surviving people having their backs carved with a warning, as Isabel noticed Mars had not said anything for some time she looked up and saw him standing with eyes closed and a bloodthirsty smile on his face that made all the blood drain from her face as the atmosphere around Mars changing, like he drew out the b.l.o.o.d.y smell of the ma.s.sacre in Mother town from the past into the present purely with his imagination, and for the next few seconds Isabel felt like she was sitting in front of a ancient predator as her body was being covered in cold sweat, until finely the pressure lifted as Mars opened his eyes and looked at her with cold eyes and a blank face, feeling like she had to say something Isabel asked Mars in a unspirited voice

"...do you hate us now?"

"no"

Isabel was slightly stunned at Mars's blunt answer, but still managed to calm down a little thanks to it, but still asked to confirm

"why don't you? what we did in Mother town is unforgivable"

Mars gave a slight sigh before he also sat down on the ground as Victoria walked over and laid in his lap, after giving Victoria some attention by patting her head he looked Isabel straight in the eyes

"while i may be a living G.o.d i have no right, nor need to judge if you or your village did was right or wrong, besides..."

as Mars fell silent a complicated light flashed in his eyes before he gave a sigh and the spoke in a low voice

"i would have done worse.... i properly wasn't a good person in my last life"

as Isabel was close to him she heard was he said, but found no need to comment on it as she stood up and leaned on a tree and watched Mars that still seemed lost in thought for some time before he woke up

"...sorry about that, could you continue your story now?"

"sure where did i let off... oh right, after Mother town was disbanded Destra sent diplomats for the first weeks but after they all were killed no matter how many soldiers were escorting them they stopped... 10 years after the incident, so 70 years ago the village finely stabilized after having grieved and expanded the safe forest to compensate for the loss of Mother town and a big influx of trade, it was decided by the elders that Green river village need a bigger army so the forest patrol squads was established and we began to expanded on the knowledge in spells and military tactics as there had been a very big increased in the number of outsiders in the outer forest we feared a attack from Destra and prepared for war"

when Mars listened to Isabel he once again found himself slightly daze by her voice but still kept his focus as she spoke again after a brief break

"as the outsider kept coming into the forest and we started to see losses on our side the discontent in the village raised and war seemed unavoidable the chief suggested diplomacy and when the elders refused he left the village alone and went to Destra"

Mars sucked in a breath of cold air as he felt his intelligence evaluation of the chief of Green river village fall drastically, but still felt the b.a.l.l.s on this particular elver had to be something as he went alone to a potential hostile nation to negotiate, but as Mars was imagining an elf with watermelon sized b.a.l.l.s Isabel continued talking unaware of how Mars was depicting the village chief in his mind

"as the village was in a panic the village chief returned after a month looking like he went just came back from the working the field... he refused to tell what had happened, only that he had signed a treaty with Destra that allowed outsider in the outer forest, and if they crossed into the barrier forest we would be allowed to kill them, but only if they knew nothing of the treaty"

hearing the end of this story Mars felt his respect of the village chief growing while he sat in silence for a little while before Isabel interrupted his train of thought

"do you have any questions?"

Mars thought for a little while before he looked at Isabel a little inappropriately before asked with a slightly teasing smile and a oddly serious look in his eyes

"...are all elvers as beautiful as you?"

hearing Mars's question Isabel lightly blushed with a stunned look on her face and after opening and closing her mouth a few times she finally managed to squeezes out a sound as she backed away from Mars slightly

"wh--"

"i mean, i can kind of see why greedy sc.u.m slave merchants would want to kidnap elvers if that is the case"

hearing what Mars was saying made Isabel angry as she had known some of the elvers that got kidnapped from Mother town and she nearly snapped at him before she noticed the serious look in his eyes that strongly contrast his teasing smile, and after taking a few deep breaths she managed to answer him, though her face was still slightly red

"...i don't believe i'm that attractive---"

"come on now, you don't believe that... give me a straight answer"

as Mars didn't seem like he was going to back down from this slightly inappropriate question Isabel felt her impression of him slightly falling as she gave a sigh

"i think so, at least in Green river village i'm about average even if i'm 935 years old..."

Mars gave a light nod as he admired her slender curves that still had some meat in the right places especially in the skin tight leather armor she was wearing before he gave a sigh as he mumbled

"...going to Green river village might be a bad idea"

as Isabel once again heard his mumble she gave a slightly puzzled look

"...why?"

"well, even if i look like this i'm have only been alive over here for about 1 month, so i'm still getting used to this body, vessel and let's just say that half dragons at least male half dragons seem like they have a hard time controlling their instincts..."

Isabel was a little confused before she understood what he was talking about and her entire face blushed even her long ears turned slight red as she covered her modest chest with one arm while he other hand grasped the hilt of her sword while she backed off slowly away from Mars, and while Mars felt like Isabel's reaction was more maiden like then he expected he still quickly explained himself

"it's not like i can't control it, i just don't want to push my limits before i have fully adopted to this vessel... besides i can promise you this, i have no interest in ****, i find it to be the most disgusting thing a living being can do"

as Mars cleared his intentions Isabel lowed her guard slightly, but she was still slightly wary of him even if he said he could control his urges she still didn't want to risk herself to test the waters

"...well then i don't think i have any more questions for now let's get down to the river"

after quickly waking Victoria that had long since fallen asleep on his lap from all the 'boring' talk Mars stood up and lightly stretched before he looked at Isabel that was still visible on guard towards him he scratched his head before he asked her

"...do you know how living G.o.ds are born?"

Isabel was still on guard and showed slight confusing on her face but she still lightly shook her head as Mars answered his own question

"...well i don't really know how much i can talk about but, **** it... living G.o.ds aren't born, they or at least i was chosen and reincarnated from another world into a vessel by... something, that might be all powerful"

Isabel still looked slight confused, as she had no idea were Mars was going with his rant but still gave a nod

"well anyway, my point is if you had the power to drag a soul from another world, and put it into a body would you pick a soul with low will power?"

"no"

as Isabel answered as he had expected Mars gave a slight smile before he turned his back to her and started to walk to the river

"then you have nothing to worry about"
