YM778.TV Chapter 78 Too Many Problems
Aurdis\' eyes widened at the condition of Saeldir\'s sword. It was a sword that was almost the same as that of Aerchon. Both were forged by the same blacksmith and created from the same material as well.
There was a certain magic power that made the two swords unable to be blunted or damaged by the impact of the other weapon.
But now Aurdis had seen for herself how the sword had cracked. The cracks spread from one point in all directions. It seems that point is the point where the Daemon\'s weapon hit the sword.
"(How did it happen?)" Aurdis asked in a very astonished tone.
Saeldir shook his head. "(I don\'t know. But I also saw a suspicious black-robed figure.)"
"(A black-robed figure?)" Aurdis asked.
"(Yeah, I don\'t know who he or she is. But he or she is not part of the Daemon of Calamity.)"
"(Why do you think the figure suspicious?)"
"(The figure can use quite advanced Magic. I also feel something quite familiar with the way the figure uses Magic.)"
"(You think that is the traitor?)" Aurdis asked in a tone of shock.
Saeldir looked up at her. "(Yes. I think so. But that\'s just a possibility. I can\'t be sure yet.)"
"(Any features you can recognize from that black-robed figure?)" Aurdis asked.
Saeldir sighed while shaking his head. "(Nothing. I told you that figure can use Magic quite well. They hid under that black robe and didn\'t let anything be seen.)"
Aurdis looked at Erend who was still lying weakly on the bed. That man has been through so many bad things. Aurdis felt sorry for him. He wasn\'t even from this world but he and his friends had to endure the troubles that existed in this world.
"(I\'ll take care of them first,)" Aurdis said.
Saeldir looked at Erend, then his friends who were being treated in different beds.
"(Do you know what happened to his friends?)" Saeldir asked.
Aurdis nodded. "(They seem to have received some kind of curse.)"
"(Yes,)" Saeldir said. "(I purposely didn\'t tell the truth when he asked. If he had known what happened to his comrades, he would have preferred to throw a tantrum rather than leave. And he would have been caught in Mount Calamity after causing great damage.)"
"(Yeah, it\'s a good thing you didn\'t say that.)"
"(I\'ll go and rest. It\'s been a pretty tiring day.)" Saeldir then left the treatment room.
Aurdis and several other Elves focused on taking care of Erend and his friends for the rest of the day. Until finally the sun went down and the moon come to replace it.
Aurdis and the other Elves had not rested at all. But they didn\'t take care of Erend anymore. Instead, they focus more on taking care of Billy, Lt. Boartusk, and Elis.
Erend\'s wounds were just ordinary slashes. Even though the wound was quite large and painful, with the healing magic power of Aurdis Erend\'s wound could be easily healed.
Unlike the injuries suffered by Billy, Lt. Boartusk, and Elis. The three of them suffered injuries from the Daemon Curse. A type of curse possessed by the Daemon of Calamity.
With that curse, the Daemon of Calamity can control everything they curse to obey their will. Aurdis became increasingly convinced that the Daemon of Calamity wanted something from Erend by kidnapping his friends.
After the curse has fully entered the three of them, the Daemons don\'t have to bother acting on their own. Those humans will immediately carry out their wish to get something from Erend.
But fortunately, the curse has not yet reached the perfect stage. Daemons most likely only introduced the curse once into their bodies.
So Aurdis and the surrounding Elves believed that their chance to remove the curse from Billy\'s body, Lt. Boartusk, and Elis are quite large. Even so, they can not do it quickly. This Daemon Curse can only be removed after two days in intensive care.
Meanwhile, Erend whose wound had healed opened his eyes. He blinked a few times to digest what was going on. Before long, Erend had already regained his full consciousness.
Erend groaned to sit on his bed. He saw Aurdis and several other Elves sitting next to Billy\'s bed, Lt. Boartusk, and Elis. They all swept their light-shrouded hands inches away from Bill, Lt. Boartusk, and Elis.
Erend got up and walked over to Aurdis. Aurdis didn\'t even notice when Erend approached. He focused on running his hand over Billy\'s head.
"Hey," Erend said.
"Hmm?" Aurdis answered without taking his eyes off Billy. His face also looked very serious.
"Am I bothering?" Erend asked.
"No. As long as you don\'t ask long questions. I still have to concentrate," Aurdis said.
Erend nodded. "I just wanted to ask what happened to them?"
"What does it mean?"
"The Daemon of Calamity instills a curse into their bodies. If the curse is completely instilled, your friends won\'t be the same again."
EErend\'sjaw tightened. But then she continued her word which made Erend a little more relieved.
"Fortunately, the curse wasn\'t completely instilled at all. So they still survived."
Erend breathed a sigh of relief. Then he looked at Billy, Lt.Boartusk, and Elis in turn. The three of them lay down with their faces scrunched up as if they were in pain. Their eyes were also tightly closed.
"So they\'re okay?" Erend asked.
"Yes. They will be fine. In two days their healing process will be complete."
Erend breathed a sigh of relief once again.
"Okay. I\'ll go to my room," Erend said. After saying that, Erend left the room to go to his room. He locked the door and plopped down on his bed and stared at the ceiling. Now at least she could breathe a little easier because Billy, Lt. Boartusk, and Elis are back here.
They are no longer in the hands of the Daemon of Calamity. He took a deep breath for the umpteenth time.
So much trouble had befallen them that Erend felt like he was about to explode. His emotions piled up and intertwined with each other until Erend didn\'t know what to feel anymore. \'
Erend felt that fate hated them. They were trapped and unable to return to their original world, and now their three friends have been kidnapped and must feel something painful from the Daemon of Calamity.
Now Billy, Lt. Boartusk, and Elis had returned and suffered only minor injuries. But their problem is not over.
Elis said that LTC. Ibis and Coil intend to use their family to get what they want. So many problems for them to face.
Erend didn\'t know why all this happened to them. Everything seems dark. Erend doesn\'t know what awaits ahead.
But he can\'t give up. He had already obtained the power of this Dragonborn. That means he has big goals to fulfill. Tut said so too.
"Do everything one by one," Erend mumbled to himself. Then he closed his eyes and tried to sleep. Trying to get rid of the tiredness and sadness.

Unable to catch up with the Elves and humans, Baldeem finally vented his rage on the surrounding forest.
He swung his large ax carelessly. Cutting big trees in one swing and even splitting rocks with one swing. Baldeem shouted so loudly. His scream shook Mount Calamity and all its inhabitants.
Until nightfall, Baldeem was still raging. Until finally the black-robed figure came to meet him.
\'They\' hovered over Baldeem because they didn\'t want to be hit by his tantrum. He stared at Baldeem destroying his surroundings like a beast engulfed in madness.
"(How long are you going to keep this up?)" \'They\' asked in an even voice.
Baldeem looked up at the figure. "(YOU! WHY DON\'T YOU HELP CAPTURE THEM?!)"
"(I\'ve helped you,)" \'They\' said. "(I summoned the Daemons to come and I also blocked that Elf from blocking your fight with the Dragonborn.)"
"(YOU HIDEN BEHIND MY DAEMONS! MY DAEMONS FINALLY DIED AND YOU DON\'T DO ANYTHING!)" Baldeem keeps staring at \'They\' with eyes blazing with anger. His voice was still high as if he didn\'t care anymore about who the real \'they\' was.
"(I have my reasons. I can\'t fight directly with that Elf.)" \'They\' said.
Baldeem no longer shouts and talks to \'They\'. For him now, talking to the figure of \'They\' would only make his anger even bigger.
"(You better get out of here now. I don\'t want to see you anymore,]" Baldeem said.
"(I want to ask you one thing. Where did you get that ax?)" \'They\' asked.
"(I told you. I don\'t want to see you here anymore. Get out of here!)"
"(Answer my question,)" \'They\' persisted.
Baldeem turned his head slowly towards \'They\'. Then his ax started to be enveloped in a red aura just like it did before he threw it at the Elf and Dragon earlier.
"(Stop it!)" \'They\' knew what Baldeem wanted to do. But now it seemed he couldn\'t stop it anymore. Then \'They\' disappeared immediately before Baldeem threw his axe. \'They\' didn\'t want to take the risk.
