Alice the Evil – [ダークファンタジー異世界]

Chapter 19 : End of Introduction Arc



Aether Krisrath Oloyra Xyrran is one of Alice's 12 Servants and the only Servant with elven blood, albeit not entirely. Aether has a mixed heritage of Demon and Elf blood, creating a new race known as the Demon Elf.

He has long, straight white hair like Alice and pointed, elongated ears. His eyes are quite beautiful, and he possesses a handsome face. Aether always wears an extremely long robe resembling that of a bishop, primarily green with gold trim and patterns.

There's a standing collar at his neck, and it covers almost his entire body except for his head. Aether's robe is so long that it almost touches the ground, but he greatly enjoys wearing it. All the equipment, weaponry, items, and more that all the Servants currently possess are gifts from Alice.

Servants are like secondary game characters and need training, level advancement, and good equipment to be fit for battle. Of course, Alice would have a tough time making all her Servants powerful, but before the guild completely disbanded, most Re:Create guild members agreed to give all their equipment and weaponry to Alice.

They hoped Alice could keep all this gear until the Monsterland game closed. In other words, all of Alice's Servants represent 80% of the total strength of the [Re: Create] guild, which was ranked third in its heyday.

Unfortunately, there's no Transfer Servant feature in the Monsterland game, so the guild members' Servants remain by their sides and cannot be transferred. If there had been a Transfer Servant feature, Alice might have had nearly 100 Servants by now.

For now, Alice can only summon 2 Servants permanently at a time, and Aether can be summoned due to an item dropped by the True Abyssal Dragon Lord. This isn't the world of Monsterland, so some laws and rules from the game might not apply in the current world.

The extent of the Abyssal Forest is 30,676 square kilometers, and Aether has chosen about 5% of the forest within a few hours. Aether also possesses several skills that allow him to move very quickly in the forest area, making the forest his best fighting ground.

Alice often uses Aether to explore new locations or continents, most of which are forested after updates in the Monsterland game. Aether is highly effective at clearing the fog covering the map, especially in forested areas.

Currently, Aether is tasked with two heavy responsibilities by Alice: restoring the forest and conquering goblins. Aether must follow all orders from the supreme leader and creator without fail. Furthermore, among the 12 Servants, Aether is the second one Alice has called upon.

At the moment, Aether is standing on a cliff about 7 meters high. It's not too high, but it's very dangerous for a normal human to fall from that height.

The top of the cliff appears barren, and so does the bottom. There are no visible plants, only dust blowing around due to the strong wind.

"The magic is truly extraordinary; it can damage such a vast area. Although it may not be Alice-sama's strongest and best magic, its effects are still formidable,"

Aether is genuinely amazed by the effects of Alice's magic, especially since he has seen it in a mirror located in the dimension of Alice's Servants.

"Yes! I agree! Alice-sama's magic is terrifying,"

"I hope to witness that magic directly,"

A woman's voice can be heard from Aether's right and left sides. On Aether's right side, there's a dryad woman named Veris, while on his left side, there's a pure elf woman. The elf woman belongs to the Karma Elf race, which is one of the rare elf races.

Physically, Karma Elves have no discernible differences from Pure Elves and True Elves. It's very challenging to distinguish between them based on physical appearance.

In this world, Elves are divided into 6 paths.

Normal Elf, Dark Elf, Demon Elf, GstElf, Human Elf, Experimental Elf.

Experimental Elf is the path with the most requirements, as it was part of the Monsterland game developer's experiment to continuously develop new elf races within the game.

The Karma Elf is an Elf that generally has a level between 100-120 and falls under the category of normal Elves. However, this race can evolve into a High Karma Elf with a level of 150. What makes the Karma Elf special is one of its passive skills.

It has a 25% chance to block any attack, except for Origin Skills, S+ tier magic, and God Items. After successfully blocking an attack, the Karma Elf can retaliate by returning the attack with double the original damage. This unique ability makes the Karma Elf an extremely rare and challenging Elf race to obtain.

In the Monsterland game, a guild once experimented by having two Karma Elves battle each other. This experiment was live-streamed on social media platforms and became trending because, at that time, Karma Elves still had a 50% chance to withstand attacks and had not yet received a nerf from the developers.

The two Karma Elves attacked each other while also blocking each other's attacks, causing the damage from these attacks to accumulate until it reached billions of damage points. Eventually, one of the Elves failed to activate their Karma passive and died due to the immense damage in the billions. This led to player protests because Karma Elves were considered too overpowered. As a result, the developers nerfed Karma Elves and made them an extremely rare race in the Monsterland game.

This also prompted the developers to implement a policy that players could not have the Karma Elf race, and only servants or summoned creatures could have the Karma Elf race.

In battles, Karma Elves would stand out because a yin and yang circle would appear beneath their feet, continuously spinning. If the Karma Elf's passive karma ability was active, the yin circle would emit a shield capable of blocking attacks.

That's a brief explanation of the Karma Elf, one of the rarest races in the Monsterland game. Alice obtained the Karma Elf from the guild's treasure room, which was bequeathed to her. Even Alice herself does not possess an item capable of summoning a Karma Elf.

It is not known for certain how to evolve a Karma Elf into a High Karma Elf.

The rarity level of the Karma Elf is equivalent to the Redemption Lich.

"Saphielle, Veris, I believe you both have a great chance to be by Alice-sama's side someday. Keep working hard so that you can reach that point,"

"Moreover, the two of you have incredibly rare races, and that is certainly precious in Alice-sama's eyes,"

"Thank you very much, Aether-sama,"

"Thank you very much, Aether-sama. I swear to work even harder so that someday I can directly serve Alice-sama,"

Veris and Saphielle closed their eyes and bowed their heads after listening to Aether.

Veris and Saphielle are creatures Aether personally chose as his assistants to complete the tasks given by Alice. Once all the tasks are completed, it is Alice who has the authority to decide where Veris and Saphielle will be assigned.

Saphielle has long white hair like Aether and Alice. For an elf, white hair signifies that they come from a high-ranking race and are not the typical elves. She has an ideal body, slightly muscular, and incredibly smooth, perhaps even softer than cotton.

She stands at about 188 cm tall, weighs around 65 kg, has black eyes, a very beautiful face, and long, pointed ears like typical elves.

If someone were to see Aether and Saphielle standing together, they would appear as a couple due to their resemblance.

"No need for thanks, I am like you both, created and made to serve Alice-sama and follow her orders,"

"You are very humble, Aether-sama,"

"Don't equate us with you, Aether-sama. You are one of Alice-sama's servants, and we are in a subordinate position to the servants,"

Hearing this, Aether chuckled softly, then he focused his gaze on the vast land in front of the cliff, even though the land was lower than 7 meters from the cliff.

"Hahaha, so our first task is to conquer goblins, those repulsive little creatures living there,"

Veris and Saphielle's gaze turned toward the open land, where many goblins were building a rather large settlement. Numerous tents served as temporary residences and many monsters, and livestock would be used as a food source.

Female goblins were also seen queuing up to get water supplies. The land inhabited by the goblins was barren and desolate, even though it had previously been a vast green forest.

The goblins' activities were very human-like and quite different from the typical fantasy stories, which naturally piqued Aether's curiosity.

"Are the goblins here good goblins?"

"They don't seem like the goblins I know,"

"The goblins I know are greedy, always hungry, and have a high sexual drive; it's quite repulsive,"

Aether agreed with Saphielle's view that goblins were a gluttonous race.

"In your opinion, what about these goblins?"

"May I use my abilities to observe the activities of these goblins more clearly?"

Saphielle asked Aether. She intended to use one of her eye abilities to extend her vision over a long distance and see into every room.

Certainly, this was one of the skills commonly possessed by high-level elf races.

"I will stand guard here to protect Aether-sama,"

Veris intended to protect Aether, who was currently beside him. The Aether by Veris' side was a fake Aether created using Alice's cloning skill. The real Aether was busy restoring the damaged forest.

"Thank you, Saphielle, Veris,"

Aether smiled and accepted their offers.

"In that case... Ultimate Skill: True Elf Eye!"

Instantly, Saphielle's previously black eyes turned white, and her vision expanded greatly, even allowing her to see 360° if no high barriers were obstructing her view.

"How's it going, Saphielle?"

"Just a moment, Aether-sama, I'm observing their activities,"

"Some goblins appear to be engaged in normal human-like activities, and it seems some goblins are eating meat - wait,"

"They're consuming a mixture of animal and human flesh,"

"Well, that's normal, Saphielle, because humans are considered weak,"

"And many goblin warriors seem to be training, while others are digging to find a water source,"

Suddenly, Saphielle's previously focused and serious expression turned into one of disgust.

"In the room, I saw several goblins having a meeting. And in another room, the Goblins were having sex with human women, very disgusting,"

"If only Alice-sama ordered to kill all these goblins, then I would immediately slaughter them,"

Saphielle looked very disgusted with the actions of the goblins, especially as the goblins forced sexual relations with human women.

The relationship between Master and servant was normal, but Saphielle considered goblins and humans to be equal races to insects so seeing their biological relationship would be disgusting.

No mercy, only a strong sense of disgust.

"Aether-sama, should I report this to Alice-sama?"

"No need, besides, they're just doing such things, not important,"

"Why does Alice-sama want to conquer this disgusting race without bloodshed?"

"Saphielle, that's a good question. Alice-sama likely wants to become the supreme leader in this world, and these goblins are Alice-sama's first step,"

"I see, I apologize for my ignorance!"

Saphielle was about to bow and apologize to Aether, but before she could, Aether raised her hand, indicating that Saphielle didn't need to bow.

"Just bow your head, even to the ground if you face Alice-sama, don't consider me equal to Alice-sama,"

Aether said with a cold tone and expression as if she were ready to kill.

"Understood!"

"In that case, I'll ask Exypno, because I also don't have a plan on how to conquer these goblins,"

"Alright, Aether-sama,"

Aether then turned around to find a safer place, as she would communicate with the other servants to seek advice.

Veris and Saphielle followed Aether from the right and left sides. No mercy, only a strong sense of disgust.
