A mage's journey begins with a battle mage.

Chapter 212 Brave Andy

"The king will punish you!"

With the words of an elven soldier, Hamlet's soldiers ended his life.

Blood stained the Tower of the Sun.

This is the highest point in Koro, where the Sunstone is placed, providing light for the elves' endless revelry.

However, now, Coro's "Sun" has changed hands.

As the last elven soldier died, his blood splattered onto the sunstone.

The light that enveloped Koro turned blood red, which was quite fitting for the occasion.

Looking down from above, the former glory of Coro is long gone; its former splendor has long since collapsed.

Everywhere were burning wooden houses, and soldiers were dragging elves out of them.

Without a doubt, Coro is finished.

The once domineering spirits now roam around like wild dogs.

But life always finds its own way out.

Although Hamlet's army was extremely brutal in battle, it never harmed ordinary civilians.

The wars outside had little impact on these non-elf races who came here to make a living.

"Knock knock knock".

A dull, urgent knocking sounded at the door.

"Open the door! Quick, open the door!"

Andy peered through the crack in the door.

He saw a female elf, covered in dust and dirt, but her former beauty was still evident.

At this moment, the elf was frantically banging on the door of the house.

Andy felt his hands and feet turn ice cold in an instant.

Some people had previously come to his door to warn him that as long as he didn't harbor elves, they would be fine.

The war outside proved this point; in any case, their family was never affected.

"Honey, what's going on outside?"

That's Andy's mother's voice; she's cooking in the kitchen.

Andy didn't intend to let her mother know what had happened; she was too easily sympathetic towards others.

"It's nothing, those are the sounds of fighting outside."

Andy didn't want these monsters to disturb his peace, just like the soldiers said, they were all human.

Humans should help each other, not monsters.

Although some of the soldiers had downy hair, their kind eyes and gentle tone seemed genuine.

They even gave them some meat and vegetables after hearing that they had no food.

This is also why my mother is good at cooking.

"Quickly, let me go! Please! They're coming!"

Unfortunately, the female elf still didn't give up.

"Andy! Why did you do this?!"

The mother heard the plea, went over, and opened the door.

"Why did you save her? What does her life or death have to do with us?"

"Have you forgotten how those elves oppressed us?!"

Andy questioned his mother loudly and bluntly, unable to understand why she had let this danger in.

"Andy! She might be different, look at her."

The mother looked at the female elf in front of her with a face full of tenderness.

Andy's face turned cold; he suddenly thought of his father.

That was the day before he left home.

The father found young Andy and gave him some instructions.

"Protect yourself, and don't hesitate to hurt whoever tries to harm you."

"Does that include Mom and you?"

The father paused, then said with a sorrowful expression.

"Yes, including me and your mother."

Then, the father left and never returned.

But suddenly a large sum of money appeared in the house.

Later, Andy learned where his father had gone.

He volunteered to be a sacrifice at the birth festival because the spirits promised to treat his family well.

In other words, the birth of every elf is achieved through the blood of his father.

His mother could enjoy it peacefully, but he could not.

Moreover, the so-called preferential treatment is nothing more than giving a tiny bit of money.

Seeing the young female elf, Andy had already come up with a plan.

"Perhaps, she really is different."

Andy laughed, but it was a cold laugh.

His mother gave him a reproachful look, then greeted the elf.

"Let's eat together; there's still plenty of extra food here."

"Oh right, Mom, I forgot something. Let me go find it."

Andy said something and went back to his room.

The mother didn't suspect anything and didn't think much of it.

"thank you."

The elf thanked them, then began eating the food on the table without any hesitation, leaving nothing for the mother and child.

A short while later, Andy came out.

His eyes flashed with a cold light as he looked at the elf.

Bang bang bang.

There was another knock on the door.

"Is anyone there? Have you seen an elf?"

It was the voice of those soldiers.

Upon hearing this, the mother quickly replied.

"No, we didn't see it."

At the same time, she whispered some instructions to Andy.

"Quick, take her away!"

Andy nodded, then took the elf's hand and led her into the house.

"Why are you touching me! You..."

The elf was about to get angry, but Andy didn't want to delay any longer.

He suddenly pulled a dagger from his hand and plunged it directly into the elf's chest.

"what!"

The elf let out a mournful cry, and within seconds, her elven presence faded away; she was dead.

"bump!"

The gate was kicked open, and the soldiers heard cries of agony, so they decided to break it down.

"What are you doing! Where is this...?"

bump!

One kick, and the traitor was speechless.

They won't give a good look to guys who don't tell the truth and protect criminals.

"I've already taken care of her."

As he spoke, Andy dragged the elf's corpse out.

"Good lad! You're really something!"

When everyone saw the elf's corpse, even the officer felt proud of Andy.

This is what a good citizen is like!

No slave will pity its slave owner.

"Sir, I want to join you."

"Join us?"

The officer seemed conflicted, but after a while, he said regretfully.

"Child, you've done very well, and you're an adult now, but unfortunately it's not possible. We have a rule that we don't accept only children from families."

"I don't know her, and I'm all alone."

"Andy, what did you say? I'm your mother!"

"Then why did you take that elf in!"

Seeing the tense atmosphere between the two men, the officer understood.

This is a family dispute.

Wait, doesn't the rule say that they don't accept people who are alone?

"I'm never coming back! You can't hold me here!"

Immediately afterwards, Andy ran out of the room; it was clear that he had no intention of returning home under any circumstances.

"What are you standing there for! Go after them!"

The officer didn't even glance at the woman lying on the ground. He casually picked up the elf's corpse, threw it outside, and prepared to transport it away later before chasing after Andy.

"Child, since you now have no parents, you can join us."

Orphaned, ruthless and taciturn, yet able to distinguish right from wrong.

Isn't this the makings of a general?

With the anger burning in the child's eyes, everything was settled, everything was settled.

"Welcome to the team, Andy."
