Chapter 153: The Fateful Meeting Part 2
(On the other side. )
[ Location: Valines, Alvitor Prison ]
Two Elven Guards are guarding a special kind of cell, a cell that contains a certain prisoner.
" The Forest Elf Queen seems to hate this prisoner. " said an Elf Guard to the other Elf Guard.
" Who was he? was he an important human or something? "
" Hush, quiet! " the other Elf Guard then looks around.
" Where are you looking at, friend...? "
"There are no people besides us, this place is completely separate using an Area Alter Magic Device, remember? "
" Shht, I know that, but! "
" Do you know that the Area Alter Magic Device is created by the Forest Elves? " the Elf Guard says to his fellow guard, telling him to lower his voice while talking about this.
" So... " the fellow guard says in a low volume.
" Do you know what's going on? "
" Why is the human we guard so important to the Forest Elf Queen? "
" Well... "
" Based on what I know, the humans' father killed the Forest Elf King back then. "
" WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY!? "
" shhhh! "
" Are you crazy, are you- "
" Lower your tone... "
The guards quarrel as they talk about the Forest Elf Queen's deal with the prisoner. As they discussed it, the Guard who knows about the story then tells his partner a story from the past, the story of the Forest Elf King's death.
He tells him how it was said of the Forest Elf King's death by the prisoner's father, as the guard tells him the story he was told, a story that the other acquired regarding the human prisoner.
As the conversation between the guards was gone by, suddenly a rumble can be felt by the guards, a rumble that shook the ground they were at.
" What is...? "
" It's from the outside, something's happened outside this Separated Space! " the Elf Guards then say as they felt it more, when they felt it, they wondered what happened outside their Separate Space.
" Are we being attacked? " the guards asked themselves, for the Area Alter Magic Devices is placed outside the Altered Area Space, where the Outer guards will guard it in order for the prisoner to be trapped in the Separated Space and can't do any jailbreak for the key is not with the guards who were assigned to guard the Prison Space.
" It seems so, somethings' happened outside. " as the Elf Guard says that, the erupted chaos stopped and went into total silence.
" Was it stopped? " the Guard asks his partner.
" I don't know, it feels too quiet after the loud noise. "
" Maybe, it's just a quake or- " suddenly the Area Alter Space was deactivated from outside, revealing the prison into the outside realm, and surprising the guards.
" What the- " the guards were so surprised as they see masked people after the Area Alter Space was deactivated and see many of their fellow guards die in their hands.
" Who are you and how did you- " before they could finish, they were suddenly attacked by a Ground Attack.
[ Ground Magic: Ground Hammer ]
The magic knocked both Elf Guards so hard, they flew into the roofs when it hit them.
After they were dealt with, the person who did that then approached the prison cell with the others, but suddenly.
" I won't allow you to take my object for revenge! " a voice suddenly comes from the ground as plants began to appear around them.
" Plants!? " the others began to prepare themselves as they see Carnivorous Plants coming out from the ground.
" The Forest Elf Queen. " a man says from the group, he then uses his Wind Magic to just quickly attack the Queen right after she appeared, but.
"( She blocked the attack with her plant, dammit! )" the man says after his [Wind Slash] fails.
" I see you had great wind magic, masked man... " the Forest Elf Queen says as she praises the man's wind magic that could wound the most powerful defensive plant she had so hard.
" But I think you're hurting this plant of mine too much... " the Queen says as she summons a tentacle-like plant to attack the people there.
" I do not know yet, who you all are. "
" But I'll assure you that these plants of mine will tear you all up. " the Forest Queen swears and promises them as her plants begin to attack the people.
" Take cover! " said the woman leader who immediately created a Ground Magic Shield.
" Keep your head covered, the Forest Elf Queen Plants had poisons inside them! " said her husband as he then slashes the plants using his Wind Magic, followed by his female partner as she also then unleashes her fire magic.
" Fire...!? " The Forest Queen sees it as the flame user then charges at her with her flaming sword.

( Meanwhile. )
Donovan, in his Draven suit, while not using his mask, talks with the Black Merchant as they exchange words with each other.
After some time conversing, Black Merchant quickly told him that he knew who Donovan was, knowing him so fast that he was the 'son' of Duncan Grimshaw or...
...
" He's Mr. Duncan 'Richter' Grimshaw, Mr. Black Merchant. " I corrected the Black Merchant, telling him that my father has to be called that way in his full name, for in that way he would be honored as part of the Richter House, being the husband of the House's eldest daughter.
" Well, kid... " the Black Merchant says after I said that.
" He's still the old Dunky for me..., that boy... "
" Donkey!? " I shouted at him for saying that.
" You're saying my father is a Donkey!? " I shouted at him and immediately get smacked in the ground by the Black Merchant with his transformable hand.
" I'm sorry... "
Back to the talk then, so basically we start talking to each other about our lives, our activities.
" So basically what are you selling, Mr. Black Merchant? " I asked him.
" Well me, I'm currently selling some items that you won't probably find on your Equipedia Website and App. "
" Really, what kind of items? " I asked him, as the word 'items' piqued my curiosity.
" Here, take a look... "
" It's some item that I obtained a long time ago, simple-to-use equipment for combat. "
" Perfect for a young person like you, I believe... " he says as he brings it out from his back.
" Take a look, you'll like it," he says to me.
" Oh gimme! " I said as I received the said item from him, an item that make me so surprised that this even exist.
"( Oh my this is... )"
"( System are you serious? )" I asked the System after the System shows me the weapon info.

" Well, do you like it? " the Black Merchant asks, while I could only witness the item with awe, for its design, it looks.
I even licked it.
In front of the item's owner.
" Kids... " the Black Merchant says as he sees me, licking the item.
...
( In the Merchant's mind. )
"( He really has a great taste in equipment... )"
"( I must say kids like these are rare these days, even in my time... )"
"( Well, what could I say? )"
"( Items are not so popular back then, only a few has them... )"
"( Those with power, of course. )"*

Extra:
* The Black Merchant means about his era where there are people with powers and people with no powers, unlike the people in this age where all of them have powers, it's a normality for humans to have them.
