Summoning the Holy Sword

Leo Banry opened her eyes and stared into the darkness. The rich, dark colors of black to invisible objects looked like daylight in the eyes of the dark elves. She lowered her eyes and felt only hunger and cold, because she had not eaten for several days. But this feeling is no stranger to Leo. As the second daughter of the third family of Calles Sodar City, Leo is no stranger to this feeling. The Dark Elf is a race full of betrayal and conspiracy. Everyone, every family is eager to step on the shoulders and corpses of other people to ascend to the High Throne. The title of the first family, the position of the hostess, these are the goals of the Dark Elf's struggle so far.

But Leo is not in it. She is a "Brighton", which is the Dark Elf language, which translates to "Defective."

In history, the dark elves traveled to the dark underground world in order to escape the brutal creation war, where they cut off the connection with nature, but their proud self-esteem did not allow the dark elves to play with soil and earth like dwarves. rock. They still inherit the keen magical sensibility of their surface relatives, and they are still using it. However, this should also bring them the unimaginable opposite.

The magic of darkness is surging deep in the ground, and the long-term use of this magic power makes the dark elves themselves and the magic of darkness merge, and their skin loses the whiteness that originally belonged to the elves and is stained with dark colors. But for them, all this is no longer important, because it is not only their skin that is blackened, but also their heart and soul.

With the help of the dark magic, the dark elves have developed their own unique magical civilization below the surface, evil, cruel, dark, but powerful and terrible. They are the closest users of dark magic, and the humblest slaves. Almost every family will have a powerful mage as the backing. Only those female surnames who have the most powerful mana and keen dark power will have the opportunity to become the family's main mother, and lead the entire Dark Elf family to the peak of glory. Because of this, almost every dark elf's female surname is a natural caster. They are masters of magic. They control the magic of darkness and death. They have tremendous power.

almost.

Because not every Dark Elf female surname has this talent.

Leo was an exception, it was a cruel exception. Because she was determined to have no magical talent since she was born, she couldn't even sense the ubiquitous flow of darkness, and even her skin was not as dark as other dark elves, but she appeared pure white . This color has brought Leo's infinite pain from an early age, and almost all the dark elves will look at her with mocking smiles and mock her. If it was not her mother, the aunt was curious to see her as a plaything in captivity, and Leo even suspected that she would die in sacrifices on the day she was born.

But since she is alive, she will continue to live.

For this reason Leo had mad practice. She had no magic, but she still had her own body and her own hands. Soon, she stood out and became the most outstanding warrior in the family. If it was not because of no precedent in the history of the Dark Elf, Leo had no doubt that she would replace that stupid male surname and become the Dark Elf family. First female surname Wu Jichang.

But Leo also knew it was completely impossible.

In the society of dark elves, only magic is everything. Warriors who dance with swords and swords will never be respected. Only those low-level male surnames will be held in this position. They are just their sisters. Mother's shield and sword help them eliminate the threat and resist the threat. In the eyes of the Dark Elves, this is something that low-level slaves would do, and Leo, as a dark elf with a noble ancestry, can't be so depraved whether she is abandoned by darkness or not. Go with the lower slaves.

She gradually became stronger, but Leo found that the society of the dark elves was incompatible with her. She was not respected for her strength. She was still ridiculed, abused, and scorned by other dark elves as a child. Leo is full of anger. She once dreamed of tearing the throats of those who laughed at herself with the knife in her hands countless times during the sleepless nights, listening to their sorrow, hatred and anger before death. Dead.

But in the end, she failed to make her revenge come true, perhaps because she noticed the discordant flame burning deep inside her daughter, or because of other considerations, Leo was traded by her mother as an undead. On behalf of her family, she led a few elite male surnames Dark Elves to the surface, and became a humble subordinate of “Soul Chaser”. This is almost the first chance for many dark elves to go to the surface. The nobles of the night kingdom don't look at the losers hidden deep in the ground. They just treat the dark elves as allies that can be used. And the dark elves knew that if they let the undead down, everything they had worked so hard to build on the ground would be completely wiped out. So in the dark underground world, almost every family of dark elves will seek the support and assistance of surface immortal forces, thereby consolidating their status. His own family was also able to gain the rule of Callesoldar because of his humble allegiance to one of the four demons. However, the experience of living in the country of night let Leo know that this is actually not important. If someone can bring greater benefits and help to the Four Demon, they will never mind changing their supporters.

For Leo, life in the kingdom of night is no better than in the dark. If the Dark Elf is still scared of her identity as the second daughter and surname of the first family, and she only taunts and threatens her lips, then Leo learns to understand in the kingdom of the eternal night. Called action over words. Those who are not dead will not waste time entangled with you at all, the rhetoric between the dark elves is a waste for them, they do not have all the desires that souls should have. All ideas were incomprehensible even to Leo. She has seen with her own eyes the few favored female surnames among the underground families who were easily killed by liches or vampires, or even death knights, and then turned into corpses slaves. It's just because of the arrogance that they once formed in the family that they didn't do the first thing the undead ordered them to do, but when they found that a big mistake had been made It's late. For the undead, any rhetoric is meaningless, so when they try to use their language to recover from failure, all they wait for is cold death and punishment.

Whenever this time, Leo would choose to sit on the sidelines. Because so many "little princesses" who are spoiled from the ground are punished every year, they think they are important allies and peace ambassadors. But in fact they are nothing more than slaves and humble servants of undead. They died because they didn't understand this, but Leo would never be among them. From the bottom, she learned how to live and act humblely in the eyes of others. This also made her quickly adapt to the life of the night country, and gradually won the trust of Barend — although that is like the trust in her favorite hunting dog.

That's why Leo came here, just to perform a task-the lord of this territory offended Barend and killed his men. This is not a big deal, but the spread of such news in the dark world always makes the face of the undead less beautiful. So in order to save face, or just to express a gesture, Leo was sent here to kill the young lord, and spread the blood and death once again to swear the authority of the four demon generals.

But she failed.

The other party was obviously prepared. When Leo led her subordinates to the fortress secretly, she was dumbfounded by the overwhelming magic bombing before she even had time to consider how to sneak in. The four elite warriors under her hand returned to the heavens without even a little resistance. The two mages are really too powerful. Although they look just like ordinary, fragile and lowly human surnames, Leo can be sure that even if they are the first mother-in-law in their own family, they will never May have such a powerful casting ability.

Even Leo herself almost died under the opponent's spell, but in the end her skin color saved her life. After seeing Leo's skin hidden under the cloak, the two girls apparently showed an unstoppable surprised expression, and then they grabbed themselves and held them in the dungeon. Leo doesn't know what kind of treatment she will be treated. She has heard many things about the people of the mainland of light in the kingdom of the night. They are kind (the word definitely doesn't have any meaning in the night of the mainland), stupid, cowardly. , Life is short, but also insidious, cunning and shameless. Leo still remembers the course when he was studying history at the Dark Elf Academy. Those mean and shameless elves forced them to go to the battlefield when they tried to save the last trace of fire for the elves, and deprived them of their life for the survival of the pure elves, Force them to follow the enemy's army like slaves. In the end, they broke free of their enslavement and came to the ground where they lived the free life they dreamed of. But Leo has never forgotten that it was the cruel, **** and evil behavior of the surface elves that made his race have to leave the ugly cage covered by the burning fireball.

They have to pay for it.

What about these humans?

Leo has heard rumors of human beings. She has also seen many human slaves in the kingdom of the night. They are indeed fragile, ignorant, full of desire and stupid. Now, she fell into the hands of these humble slave races, which made Leo a little worried, she frowned, waiting for her own trial. For Leo, she had no knowledge of the customs and practices of the Land of Light, but the meaning of prisons, cages, and shackles must be the same everywhere.

And at this moment, the young dark elf keenly heard footsteps from the door, and it seemed that several people were moving in their own direction. Footsteps grew louder and then stopped in front of her door. Then, the door of the cage's room opened, and a dazzling firelight came in from the outside.

This light made her involuntarily close her eyes and turn her head ...
