Everyone is a hero, but I am a second-year player.

How can it be? !

Not only did this human learn it after just one look, his control over magic was impeccable!

Even if he was the most talented disciple, it would be impossible for him to control the magic power of each sword so stably after he became an apprentice!

Weird...monster!

This is not a human being!

This is a monster in human skin!!

After a moment, An Yi asked, "Can we continue?"

“Wait a minute!!”

Ileph stood up suddenly and pointed at An Yi;

"You have already mastered the sword technique! But...

You never even called me Master!

OK, what do you do now?!"

An Yi nodded, knelt on the ground, bowed deeply to Ileif, and said solemnly, "Master."

Ireif's nose felt sore and tears flowed uncontrollably from her eyes.

I haven't heard this name for hundreds of years.

She was once one of the Elf King's twelve royal attendants, and was considered to be at the top of the entire clan.

In the war that engulfed the entire elven kingdom a thousand years ago, her only dozens of disciples were either killed or missing.

After hundreds of years of almost endless escape, the last disciple who followed her was killed by the demons eighty years ago.

She thought she would die alone and her sword skills would never be passed down.

Then, as if God took pity on her, a strange human appeared.

His strength is thousands of times stronger than that of ordinary humans. He understands demons and recognizes elves. He can perfectly reproduce his sword skills after just watching them once!

And he can cook!

If there really is a God in the world, then Anyi is a treasure bestowed by God to her!

How lucky she is.

He fled for five hundred years, living several hundred years longer than those elves who had long since died.

When he was about to die, he gained a talented disciple who could be described as a "monster".

Although she had experienced countless pains and injuries, at this moment, she felt that she was the luckiest elf in the world!

“Well…from now on, you are my apprentice.

In the name of the Elf King's 12th Servant, I grant you the Blessing of Wind!"

Ireif's eyes focused and she held her sword horizontally in front of her. Suddenly, a strong wind blew across the entire lakeside, ripples appeared on the surface of the lake, and the leaves rustled.

It was like a sudden storm, and the center of the storm was Ilef who was slowly floating up.

Her pupils glowed blue, and she could see from the leaves and the lake that the strong winds from all directions were rapidly disappearing... Oh, no, they were converging towards Ileph.

At the same time, the green light in Iref's eyes became more and more intense.

Finally, the wind died down.

The blue light in Iref's eyes originally only appeared in the pupil, but now it has covered the entire eyeball, as if a blue light was lit in the eyes.

She walked slowly to An Yi, half-knelt down, and placed the sword in her hand on the ground.

Then he placed his right hand on top of An Yi's head.

"Take it."

Ileph opened her mouth, but the voice came from all directions, everywhere like the wind!

[Receive blessing: Protection of the Wind!

Agility increased by 30%!

Max adaptability to wind element!

Wind element damage increased by 40%!

Reduce wind damage received by 60%!

Obtained title: [Follower of the Wind]]

An Yi stood there in a daze.

Originally, I called him "Master" because he taught me swordsmanship, so I called him out without hesitation and willingly.

But he didn't expect that just being called "Master" would bring him such a generous reward!

Protection of the Wind!

This is a passive skill exclusive to the elves that control the wind. Even in the game, this effect can only be obtained on a rare accessory at least in the late stage!

Obtaining this blessing means that from now on, all skills related to [Wind] will become effortless for him.

And the agility is increased by 30%. You may not see a significant improvement in the early stage, but if he can raise the agility attribute to 300, he will have an extra 90 points of agility out of thin air!

This is equivalent to 300 levels higher than a brave warrior with the same 90 points of agility!

This means that he can use more points on other attributes, or increase his agility to the limit earlier than others.

Looking at Ileph again, the green light in her eyes disappeared, and a hint of fatigue appeared in her eyes.

Communicating with nature also requires magic and physical strength.

An Yi bowed deeply again: "Thank you, Master, for your gift."

But...it's only the first day we met, Master, isn't your blessing a bit too hasty?

"Okay, I'm tired."

Ireif stood up with the support of Anyi's shoulders, and then walked to the shadow under the tree with a slightly unsteady step.

"Let me sleep for a while... As a disciple, you must protect me when your master is sleeping."

"Yes."

When An Yi agreed and stood up, she found that Irefu had closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

As for how I knew she was asleep...

This was because the leaves that were originally clinging to her body had lost their magical control and had all fallen down, leaving them simply covering her body.

At that time, An Yi simply felt that she was tired.

He didn't know that this was the most peaceful sleep Ireif had ever had in the hundreds of years she had been on the run.

If An Yi knew, he would still say...

Master, don’t you trust me too much?

It was only the first day they met.

But Ileph would probably say;

If An Yi is someone who cannot be trusted, then...it's bad luck for her.

Back in this life, An Yi turned around and went back to the underground base, walked all the way to her room, and finally lay down on the bed.

The memory fast-forwarded, and the master and disciple killed countless powerful demons in the next eight months.

Finally, the memory slowly unwinds one year after the birth of the Holy Warrior.

That year, Elif died.

160 A Relationship Beyond Master and Disciple

An Yi's solitary walk lasted for a long time, but the real opportunity for him to actively avoid making friends with outsiders was;

It was the death of Ireif.

Before this, he had chosen the path of revenge alone, but because Ireif's presence could speed up his revenge, he did not refuse to go with her.

After that, he closed his heart and never chose to spend more than a month with other people during his long journey of revenge.

Recalling that one day a month before Ireif's death, they lit a bonfire in the forest and prepared to rest.

Ileph walked out from behind the tree, holding her usual clothes and light armor in her hands, and she had changed into a light white nightgown.

Sit down in front of the campfire and stuff your spare clothes into your backpack.

She looked at the flickering flames, then looked at An Yi across from her: "An Yi, have you ever thought about... having a child?"

"What a sudden question."

Anyi didn't think much about it, because Ilef was an elf and he was a human, so there would be some differences in concepts and morals between the two sides.

Ileph always asks weird questions, there's nothing weird about that.

I just suddenly thought of something and wondered what the difference was between what I was familiar with and what humans knew.

“If you ask me to answer seriously, my answer is no at the moment.

Because the crusade against the demons has not yet ended.

If the crusade against the demons is over and the demon king is killed, maybe there will be a plan. "An Yi said.

"In fact, elves don't plan to have children until they reach a certain age."

Ileph explained to An Yi as if she was telling him some trivia.

"Well...how should I put it? Whether mentally or physically, I won't have any such impulses, right?

Even when I am with someone I like, we are just together and won’t act overly intimate. ”

"Maybe it's because of their long lifespan," An Yi said, "If they have too strong a desire to reproduce, their numbers will grow uncontrollably.

It will also affect the elves' will to cultivate magic power.

Training magic and improving magic power requires a lot of concentration, right? It can't be disturbed by worldly desires."

"I didn't expect An Yi to know so much."

Ileph praised, then continued;

"But in comparison, humans have a very short lifespan, so they would have a strong desire to reproduce when they are young and middle-aged, right?"

"Yes." An Yi nodded.

"But An Yi didn't show it at all. Could it be that she has been enduring it all the time?" Ireif asked with a smile.

"There's no need for that," An Yi said.

With [Lack of Lust] and [Gluttony], the hero is just a ruthless demon-killing machine.

Reproduction? Desire? No such thoughts.

"Wait! That means you will solve it secretly without telling your master?!" Ireif was surprised.

"It's not that there's no need to think about that... Because we have God's blessing, we can ignore those thoughts until we defeat the demons." An Yi explained.

In recent days, Ileph has also come into contact with other heroes, and she has learned that all heroes have such a thing as a system.

but……

"That's true. How can such a thing be known to outsiders? I understand, I understand." Irev nodded as if she understood everything.

"Whatever you think." An Yi was too lazy to explain.

This elf is old enough to have existed for several human dynasties, so it is not surprising that he would say something shameless.

But it did remind him of something.

"Master, don't you have any children yet?" An Yi asked.

"No, I've only been over 1,500 for a few decades!" Ileph said excitedly, "And I've been hunted by the demons for hundreds of years. How can I have the mood to have a child?"

"Didn't the elves be destroyed a thousand years ago? Why have we only been chasing them for a few hundred years?" An Yi asked.

"Because they spent the past few hundred years trying to find a way to fight back, and were hunted down when their counterattack failed," said Ireif.
