BXBX NOVEL Chapter 318 Plan To Go Back
When they were done with the urgent meeting, they all decided on an outcome that would ease their burden when confronting Mammon.
As to be expected, going forward, the pillars will be included in the battle, and so will all the elven warriors who have been prepared specifically for a day like this.
Orun has decided to tender his arsenal to the war front, and that includes his upcoming forces in the desert.
The overlapping distance was not a problem for Orun who has the teleportation ability at his disposal.
"Thank you..... Elder Rof!". Orun said, pausing to see the reaction on the elven elder, to know if he got the name right.
"It is Elder Torsys, Spirit King". The elven elder corrected him, not minding the mistaken identity.
"Yes, Elder Torsys. I apologize, your names are too confusing for me to get a firm grasp on them all". Orun replied, expressing his fault for mistaking him for someone else.
"It is okay Spirit King". The earth-elven elder answered.
After they were through with the meeting, Orun voiced out his intention to have his forces join in the campaign meant to bring down the demon lord Mammon.
It was of course accepted without any hesitation. Only with Dilya's permission could he have his forces on the elven nation's soil.
With his background as an elemental spirit king, and his aide in temporarily sealing Mammom and his army of demons, the four elven elders and Dilya had no trouble giving Orun the permission he needs to have his forces join them.
With that said, Orun could not open up his teleportation ability inside the elven nation because of the barrier.
The barrier's effect negates any instant movement skill from outside to inside, or inside to outside.
He had to go out of the barrier to open up his teleportation ability.
With the help of the earth-elven elder who is in charge of the teleportation, Orun was able to get out of it along with the earth-elven elder and is now outside the range of the barrier.
"Will this place be conducive enough to do what you want"? The earth-elven elder inquired.
"I don't think the location will matter much to them". Orun responded.
The earth-elven elder's worry is about making those that Orun will be summoning feel comfortable with their surroundings.
He believes that as the subordinates of the spirit King, they should be offered the best accommodation possible by the elven nation.
If it wasn't for the dilemma that the nation is currently in, a parade is what would have been set up to welcome the subordinates.
Whereas, Orun finds stuff like that as pointless, a flashy way of expressing their warm welcome when it could have been done in other ways.
If it was left to him, he would have preferred to be consulted before setting up the parade during Orun's arrival at the elven nation.
"What matters is that I get them down here, and we begin planning the phase of taking down Mammon".
Orun stretched out his hand to the open grassland and opened up a portal leading directly to the desert, the settlement where the monsters are in.
"Shall we". He politely asked, turning to the earth-elven elder with his hand directed to the portal.
"We are going in". The earth-elven elder asked, puzzled on why there is a need for that.
He thought that all Orun was going to do, is use his ability and bring them all over here. The earth elder was not accounting for them going all the way to Orun's territory through the portal.
"Don't you think there is a need to brief them on what is going on before I just whisk them all here? ".
"Besides, you are not thinking that everyone in my territory is a combatant now are you?".
Orun plans to go back to the territory, and inform Wildria of the situation, and why he is back without Theron and Monryck.
Granted there is not enough time for a full-length explanation, he plans on making it a very short one with a skip to a question on how many forces will be ready for immediate combat.
Orun took his step gently and elegantly, making his way to the portal and going through it.
The earth-elven elder hesitated about going through the portal. He is a guard of the elven nation, and his duties rest with keeping the barrier in safe conditions.
The farthest he had gone from the elven nation and the barrier, could be measured in minutes.
Even if Orun is the elemental spirit king, and the earth elven elder trusts him, he still considers it as a stretch and a big step to make, from the elven nation to a location far off from where the elven nation is.
Traveling through the portal might make it seek like a short-distance journey, but that isn't going to fool him.
Knowing that there was no time for mind debate, the earth elven elder steeled his resolve and ran after Orun to cross through the portal.
When the both of them were in, the portal closed behind them and its remains dissipated into the atmosphere.
Getting to the other side of the portal, the earth-elven elder felt a massive surge of heat suddenly swell up in his body.
He also felt a sense of discomfort brought about by the heat turning his skin coarse and the feeling of it brushing with his clothing.
Like a man gone mad, he wanted to have all his clothes taken off and then start running about, trying to generate a chill feeling in his body.
With the discomfort going on, the earth-elven elder barely managed to hang on to his sanity and not follow through with the wishes growing in his thought.
"Are you feeling alright"? Orun inquired with his gaze on the earth-elven elder.
Even though he had controlled himself well, there was nothing he could do to change his expression from revealing how he feels about the heat.
