"E-Excuse me?" Asked the Elf King. "You don't want to protect Elfina, your summoner, nor stay in here where we can... provide just anything you need?"

"No... I came from another world and I want to get back there." I said. "Nothing personal, I just have many responsibilities in my original world, I have a big family and we were in the middle of war as well-"

"And aren't we in the middle of a war?" Asked the Elf Queen cockily. "You probably died in that world, right? So why do you want to go back to a world where you died? You won't be able to get there in any time anyways... It is unrealistic to even want such a thing! This world- no, we need you here, your strength and your capabilities is what we require to survive this war!"

"And I don't give a fuck about your war." I said.

"Eh?! Y-You insolent!" Roared the Queen, suddenly, many Guards pointed their spears, magic staffs, and swords at me furiously for insulting their queen.

"Y-You really are stubborn about this..." Sighed the Elf King. "Isn't it possible for you to finish your work her as a hero and then try to go back to your world? By defeating the Demon King and the Demon Lords!" He said.

"What? I don't really want to... It would be nice leveling but I am honestly quite worried about other things right now. I am sure I can get enough EXP in my world as well. Helheim had a lot of wild monsters-"

"Y-You dare reject such a good offer!!!" Roared the Elf Queen, losing her temper and roaring like a brat. "Guards, apprehend her and throw her into the dungeon! If she doesn't want to work for us, we'll force her! There's no way a monster can just think she has the chance at rejecting the offer of such stemmed figures as ourselves!"

"Oh yeah? I can just crush you to death if I want to." I said. "Do you think you can apprehend me? I didn't come here to fight you Elves. But I can already tell based in the food and everything else that you're living in luxury while the demons are starving in the "Rotten Lands" that you call them. Why do you even think they're trying to conquer land, they're just fucking dying. You got plenty of unused land, can't you share some with them?"

"EH? You think you can just meddle with political affairs, monster?!" Asked the Elf Queen.

"Mother that's enough! Stop it! Kireina is my summon, she's a nice person actually! Don't provoke her! You're not like this!" Said Elfina. "STOP IT!"

Elfina suddenly unleashed a bright aura of light, as her mother seemed to be intimidated by it. I suddenly noticed a dark aura leaking out of her body for some reason, as she coughed.

"Cough... Ugh... E-Elfina! D-Did you just attacked your mother with magic?" Roared the Elf Queen.

"My wife please calm down. The Summon desires to go back to her world... We can't just force her to cooperate. She has the power to slay Demon Lords... It is not as if we got the power to even go against her even if we both combine our strength! Don't you think you're being way too greedy?" Asked her husband, calming the Queen down. She petted her back but the Queen looked at her rather annoyedly. "You seem strange since a few days, are you sure you're alright?"

"Ugh... I am okay!" Sighed the Elf Queen. "Fine! Let that thing do as it pleases..."

"Actually I had come here to enter the Akashic Library. I am sure there is information about what she's looking for in there." Said the White Dragon. "We are not in the right to force and otherworldly being to stay in here and forcefully work for us. Queen of the Elves, don't be greedy."

"Yeah, yeah!" Said Elfina. "K-Kireina has saved my life more than twice, it's the least I can do for her... Sorry, mother. I am a failure for not summoning an obedient summon but... I don't want to force her to stay here either if she doesn't want to."

"Aww... You guys...!" I said, almost crying. The two were backing me up, I can't believe this. I guess I really made two friends in here already...

"...It is a pity, but it is alright as well." Said the Elf King. "Maids, bring my wife back to her room for now." The maids quickly led the sickly Elf Queen who continued coughing severely back to her room, as the Elf King followed her from behind worriedly. It seems that something weird was going on in here, but it seems that things were resolved fine for the moment. But seriously, what was that dark thingy that came out of the Elf Queen when Elfina's light aura hit her?

"Well, for now you should go rest for the night. I will spend the night inside the Akashic Library investigating. You two make sure to have a good rest... Also, for you to not destroy the floor of the castle... Float." The White Dragon suddenly conjured a Wind Spell on me, making me float in midair. It seemed to be something like a buff... Wow, with this I am immune to Earth-type Magic like in Final Fantasy games too?!

Now that I could float without having to roll around the skies at fast speed, we moved to our rooms. Elfina led me to an empty room next to hers, it was big and spacious, but my heavy body couldn't really rest over the bed, so I just sat over the floor while looking at the window.

White, Black, and Aquamarine emerged out of thin air at my side. But they quickly fell into the ground as they didn't had the power to fly by themselves through natural Telekinesis or anything of the sort...

"Ouch... It sucks that we can't even move around..." Sighed Black grumpily.

"Hahaha..." White laughed nervously.

"Master! Shouldn't we hurry back home?" Asked Aquamarine.

"I know dear, but it's going to take some time... Let's trust the dragon, he seems to have good intentions." I said, as I decided to look into my Status again. I kind of wanted to see what sort of Skills I could purchase with the Skill Points I have accumulated.
