Elf Tensei Kara no Cheat Kenkoku-ki

Only five minutes had passed and all the soldiers except the Captain had been killed. The Captain was now rolling around on the floor holding his head. He was completely blinded. He would never see the light of day again.

It was the first time Id killed a person, but I felt no guilt.

What made me feel uncomfortable was the fact that I felt so blas about killing.

After accepting the voice, knowledge and memories that I shouldnt have known flowed into my mind. However, they felt like my own experiences.

Someone, bring some alcohol. Make it as strong as possible! Wait, dont use the villages alcohol. I can smell some strong distilled liquor coming from it. Just grab that!

I called out before running over to Rick who still had a knife in his back.

Rick had tried to run and had been hit by a knife from behind.

Stop getting in my way!

I got irritated and flooded the collar with magic power overloading the engraved magic formula. It was destroyed completely.

With this it wouldnt be making anymore noise.

I checked the wound as Lucy ran over carrying the alcohohl.

I activated my magic and analyzed the liquor. It was around 50% alcohol. I felt uneasy with that so I used my magic power to remove water content from it and forcefully raise it up to 80% alcohol content. For disinfecting a wound I wanted at least 70%. freewebno vel.co m

Rick this is going to hurt. Youre a man so bear with it.

Oi, Cyril what do you think youre doing asking for alcohol?

He was purposefully not hit in the vitals and his bleeding wasnt too bad. He even had the presence of mind to ask me that question.

Shut up, no waitopen your mouth.

I said and took my empty jute bag from my pocket and stuffed it into Ricks mouth.

Then I pulled the knife from his back quickly and efficiently before covering it liberally in alcohol.

Nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn! freew(e)bnovel

Rick cried out with his mouth blocked by the cloth bag.

The bag kept him from biting his tongue as well.

I cleaned and disinfected his wound all at once before putting my hands near his wound.

Healing

I invoked healing.

This was magic that strengthened the recovery ability of the target to the limits.

However, for that reason if you didnt clean the wound properly it could cause a disaster.

But, if you didnt use such magic for healing you would instead have to use a much more complex, time consuming, and inefficient spell like time reversal.

Okay all done. Now you should be fine.

I said and lightly patted Ricks back.

Huh, my woundit doesnt hurt?Its fixed!? Cyril youre amazing. I thought you had to be a Sage to use healing magic.

Its because Im a genius.

Somehow my favorite saying in the past came out of my mouth. I had used it many a time to hide the massive amounts of effort I had put in.

Hey, whyd you do something so dangerous?

Before I realized it, Lucy had sat down next to me.

I wanted to protect you Lucy.

Even though I wouldve been fine as long as Cyril survived.

I dont want that. Its no good if were not together. When I realized it I had already punched him.

I didnt have any chance of victory. If the voice hadnt spoken up I would have died.

I could clearly see that now that I looked back on it.

However, I would rather die than let her be killed without trying to stop it. I couldnt bear to remain here alone like that.

Somehow youre like the old Cyril.

The old me huh? ..thats the one Lucy likes best right?

Un, I dont want to see the timid and depressed Cyril.

Alright, got it. I will save our village! Ill show you that I can release us from the humans control. Either way things will be difficult after all.

I smiled bitterly as I looked at the villagers surrounding us.

Among them I could see 30% looking at us relieved that more friends and family hadnt died, 30% that looked at us with scorn and anger, and 30% who looked on with more neutral feelings.

From within the crowd an elf, who looked to be in his late forties with some gray hair on his head, jumped out. It was the pitiful Village Headman Nietzsche (Nijie).

His expression was clearly hostile.

Youve really done it this time Cyril. You killed the soldiers and now theyll think that we rebelled.

I had expected him to say exactly that.

If the soldiers who went to collect taxes didnt come back they would surely suspect our village. Soon what I had done would be discovered.

Then after that would be vengeance.

However, I didnt intend to simply wait around in fear.

Rebels? Isnt that perfect? If they simply stole our produce then I could endure. But every year they steal our friends and family. Remaining silent through that is abnormal. We should fight instead. We should wield our bows and stand proud.

Your parents said that as they fought and died. They took everyone involved along with them as well.

That was the sin that was engraved on me.

No matter where I go and what I do it would follow me.

Thats why I wouldnt run anymore.

My father failed. But who decided that the next one would fail as well? I can do this. I can show this village a path to victory.

Damn brat! Speaking nonsense!!

Its simple truth. I showed my ability when I killed these five with my hands alone. I showed that these types of people can be killed by any of us here. You should open your eyes to reality.

Youre the one who should wake up! Its just a pipe dream.

A pipe dream.that might be so.

The soldiers where strong. Their full mail would deflect the arrows the elves shot, plus they were weak at close combat. Furthermore, the elves specialty, wind magic, wasnt strong enough to kill.

In a fight they would eventually close the distance and get killed.

at least for now
