Chapter 3: An Unexpected Encounter
Brother, have you considered the fact that I am just an underage, inexperienced elf?
I am NOT one of those legendary elves who can destroy mountains with a flick of their hand!
Look at the giant sword that guy is carrying—who do you think is stronger here?!
But there was no way out.
Illiya could only grit his teeth and prepare for battle.
With a flick of his wrist, a faint golden glow emanated from the delicate bracelet around his right hand.
In an instant, a staff materialized in his grip.
The staff was roughly the same height as Illiya, its body crafted from a naturally fallen branch of the Elven Mother Tree.
It retained its original form, devoid of elaborate carvings, its only decoration being a gleaming green magic stone embedded at the top.
Illiya swung the staff, and the green stone glowed brightly.
In an instant, a shimmering green barrier materialized around him.
