Chapter 1586 I Found Me A Pair Of Desert Elves
We had yet to find Sol, Elfina, Fiere, and Luminous, and instead, we found two completely unrelated Elves to our own Elves. I really thought it was them because one of them had blonde hair. But now that I look them at a closer inspection, I can clearly tell they're not even Elves from the forest! Their light skin is tanned lightly and rather beautifully, of a clear brown, and they have white tattoos around their bodies, the blonde girl has one around her neck and her chest, which is a rather big pair, and the guy at her side who looked like a girl at first glance had some over his arms.
Their clothes are different as well, of course. They were wearing very Arabic-like clothes, made to resist the heat of the desert and cover their heads from the sand and the heat of the sunlight. They seemed to have no weapons with them, and when I appraised them, I found out the girl was named Ariant, and the boy was named Eriant. Huh, are they twins? They really look alike. The girl was a powerful Magic Swordswoman, while the boy was a Healer and Enhancement specialist, but also fought with a scimitar, the same as his "sister".
"Oi, you guys, wake up!" I said, slapping their heads with my bug arms. "Hmm… their [Thirst Resistance] and [Hunger Resistance] Levels are very high, they must have had it rough, in fact they look very tired and thirsty… Aquamarine, can you throw some water over them?"
"Kay!" Aquamarine quickly poured two balls of water over the two sleeping Desert Elves.
SPLASH!
SPLASH!
"Uwah!"
"Ugh?!"
The two quickly woke up as they screamed their lungs out. They suddenly gasped for air, looking everywhere, their eyes quickly landed into me.
"Hey! Are you guys from the desert? Have you seen Forest Elves around here? How about a giant white dragon and a guy with red armor?" I wondered as I asked politely.
"M-M-M-MONSTER!" The two screamed in unison, quickly running away from me.
"Eh?"
"We are getting from one problem to another!" Cried Ariant.
"Run as fast as you can Ariant!" Cried Eriant.
Sigh… Right, I got a monster form, I guess they would get scared by seeing a giant butterfly looking at them very closely. I decided to fly towards them, easily catching up to them and arriving in front of their eyes once more.
"Stop. I am not evil, I am a good monster…" I said.
"Good monsters that talk?!" Asked Ariant.
"We have fought many tricky creatures before, but nothing like this! Does it talks to trick people? From what dungeon did this thing came from?!" Eriant wondered.
The two siblings desperately tried to bring out their magic swords from their sheaths, but they had none, they were lost. Probably engulfed by the same sandstorm that ate me and my party away.
"O-Our weapons…" Muttered Ariant.
"Damn it! We'll have to go raw with magic then…!" Eriant said.
"Wait, wait, wait a bit PLEASE!" I cried, trying to make them listen to me was hellish hard!
"Rock Fang!" Ariant said without even listening to me.
TRUM!
Suddenly, an enormous fang-shaped rock emerged from the ground, attempting to crush me. However, this was low level skill and she didn't had too much Magic, so Bubu's [Magic Barrier] protected me without me having to use any MP.
CLASH!
"Hey, calm down now…" I sighed.
"S-She got a egg in her head!" Said Ariant.
"Monster! Maybe she wants to put the egg inside of us!?" Asked Eriant.
"STOP TALKING NONSENSE!"
I quickly turned into my humanoid form, slapped both of them in the face, and then smacked them into the ground.
"S-She's a little girl? Ouch…"
"Please have mercy!"
"Idiots! I am not going to kill you! I am just a wanderer looking for my lost friends. I found you and saved you from walking cactuses just now, and even gave you water to wake you up! Don't you feel your faces are all wet now?" I asked.
"C-Certainly… We haven't drank water in a week… I feel so refreshed I can talk easily." Said Ariant.
"Y-You saved us from cactuses?" Asked Eriant.
"SIGH… You're finally listening, huh?" I sighed, sitting while floating in midair using [Telekinesis]. "You guys should listen to me already… I'll tell you what has happened…"
Like that, I gave them a brief explanation of who I was, and about my summons too to not create confusions. The two had a hard time believing my story, but I offered them food I had stored in my inventory, some more water, and I earned their hearts immediately.
"I see, so you're a Summoned Monster from a Forest Elf Princess… I guess the Elven Kingdom in there needed more power?" Wondered Ariant.
"I heard they won a war against the human empire… is that true?" Wondered Eriant.
"Yes, and I helped them." I said.
"Amazing, you're so little yet so strong!" Ariant said, giggling like a child. She was very childish and goofy, the same as her brother. "Can you become my little sister?"
"Yes, can you?" Asked Eriant.
The two began to pet me and hug me as if I were a stuffed toy.
"Eh? No way…" I said. "Get away from me, creeps!"
I quickly threw them off as I looked at the meat that I was roasting, it was almost ready, so I decided to serve it on plates with some rice I had boiled previously, and then added a bit of sauce that elves made out of yogurt and other herbs.
"Here, have a meal."
"Thanks, looks so good!"
"I'm starving…"
The two began eating like children, and then I began to wonder what their story was and why they were just in the middle of nowhere about to die to walking cactuses. At the end, in the middle of the food, I asked.
The two looked at one another and then back at me.
"Well… We were caught by a sandstorm."
"The Desert King is not the only menace in this sand, there's also someone named "Genie"… That bastard brought almost the entire demise of our village…"
"Genie?"
