Chapter 44: Prodigies
POV: Lelion Albright
"Answer me Elf... What sin could push you this far...." The man said coldly while staring dead into my eyes, as if trying to prove a point.
"...They had looked at one of my sisters with pure lust, my sister is one of the princesses of my kingdom human, if this were done in my homeland they would have immediately been beheaded. We Elves can sense emotions, the moment they laid eyes on her their true filthy emotions had come out. "
"I see, well in our land that isn't a sin nor a crime. Now what? Do you think your culture rules over ours? Tell me Elf, are we on your land right now?"
This human's rage was something to behold, he was gritting his teeth through his last words. He did make a point however, it seemed I was too hasty in my actions.
I knew I couldn't win in a fight in this current position, the man was too close.
"You are correct, it seems I'm in the wrong here and for that I apologize. Still, I know we have our differences but if we are to ever become allies your people need to know how to treat others with culture in mind. "
"You're right and I am also sorry for what those two have done. Not all of us humans are good people, but I'm sure you'll find some that are."
The man bowed and started to walk away.
I did learn a few things from this encounter though, it seemed like not all humans were as weak as we thought and some are actually decent living beings.
'I wonder... Would I have reacted differently if he were weaker than me? My teacher once said that people tend to listen to those who are strong, did I subconsciously do the same thing as a regular person?'
This thought struck a chord with my royal blood, me listening to a human just because he was stronger than me?
'Is he even, right? Why would I simply listen without questioning it like I was taught to? I need to fight, weakness and bowing down isn't what a King does... I must fight, go beyond what is regular and become special!'
I raised my hands and started to surround myself with mana, but in less than a split second I felt an ungodly amount of bloodlust slam into me.
I saw a fist lodged inside my stomach and then I finally felt the impact of it.
"ARGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH" I screamed out with alongside all of the air inside my body. It felt like I couldn't even breathe, this is what a single body shot did to me.
I felt my knees start to buckle; I have never taken such a shot before. I felt the man's hand on top of my head, he started to squeeze my skull making me think my head was about to explode.
"You fucking bastard... you just committed a big sin. I wonder should I burn you alive just like what you were about to do?"
I was terrified, I was scared for my life. I didn't want to die at all and I felt tears start to come down my face.
"HELP, SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME! I BEG PLEASE! KNIGHTS!" I started to scream which was the only thing I could think of to do.
I was ashamed, I started crying profusely hoping that someone would help me. I just wanted to be special, I wanted to be a King, but I was nothing of the sort.
I felt the man's hand release my head, this made me fall face flat on the floor. I was instantly relieved as the pain that I felt was insurmountable.
"You make me sick to my stomach you pussy. If you ever try that high mighty shit again to any humans, I will rip every fucking limb off your body. No one will save you from me bastard, I will find you even in the damn afterlife you scumbag."
Every word the human said made me shiver and cry even more. I truly had wished I never came to this hellhole.

POV: Azrail Diggory
I was beyond livid, my first day here and people are already acting like idiots. Not even half a day has gone by yet two fucking idiots already managed to piss off an Elf that was a royal.
I was also frustrated at myself for letting my feelings get in the way, I shouldn't have confronted that Elf in the first place.
My original plan was to simply take them and run but his actions had gone too far. They were also weak enough for me to easily take them on, my big ego had gotten in the way and him attacking sent me into my battle mode.
Still those two humans had me the angriest, I was currently walking to where they were hiding.
I finally managed to spot them, the two of them were simply sitting on a bench with their heads down. Since there were knights around, I held back on beating the living shit out of them.
I arrived in front of the two and sent every ounce of bloodlust I had at them.
"You two idiots better explain yourselves, don't think I won't drag you to an area just to beat the living hell out of you."
"Sir we didn't even do anyt." I cut the idiot off and lowered my voice even further.
"Don't lie jackass, you looked at a female Elf who was a fucking princess with nothing but lust. Are you truly that goddamn horny?"
I stared at the two clowns waiting for an answer, both of them were shaking heavily. After a while one of the boys answered.
"Sir she was the most beautiful women I have ever laid my eyes on. Her purple hair and eyes were absolutely stunning, she had the most perfect body a man could wish for alongside her prefect face. Her pointy ears simply added to her beauty and her strength was also unconceivable, how could we not have wishes for a woman like that? Someone like her only appears in fantasies. If you do not believe me simply find her for yourself, you can't miss something like that. "
'Fuck my life.... so she's here as well. Considering that Elf said sister than that means I just beat up her brother. Unless there's another Elf who has similar features to her, but the odds are too slim for that. Damn it things are looking awful already, how can we recover from this?'
"Excuse me, what are you guys talking about here?" A man with a confident soothing voice asked behind me.
I turned around and looked at the man who asked the question. I instantly stopped releasing my bloodlust as I noticed this man was one of the 10 people who were on the level of that female Elf.
I started to recognize some of his features as well, he was a lot taller than me and his presence simply gave off confidence with how far his chest was out.
He had bright golden hair with two of his eyes being different colors. His right eye was dark red with the other being a dark blue. With his golden hair and scary eyes, I knew this man was the child of the great leader of Volestia.
I believed he was the strongest human being here as well, the guy was the most renowned prodigy of my generation in Volestia.
