Climbing the Tower to Be a God With 10x Gacha System

Chapter 185: Elf Village



James and Ariel had been walking for almost two hours, nearly 30 minutes since they had left the wooded area, most likely the forest they were in.

The two of them had little trouble with their high energy levels, and James kept himself and Ariel warm by constantly keeping his aura open.

However, as the time ticked on and it got closer and closer to nightfall, even James' high-level fire elemental was beginning to wear thin, and even though he was using his aura, a protective force and elemental, it was getting so cold that nothing was quite enough.

James pulled some clothes out of his inventory and handed them to Ariel, wanting her to be warm.

After fifteen minutes of walking through the woods, they came to a place where there were some wooden houses.

James looked around and realised that something was being watched through the windows of the houses. He could realise that deep blue eyes of ice were watching them.

"We're not here to fight!" Ariel suddenly shouted, seeming to make a brief peace gesture.

With that shout, the eyes that had been watching them disappeared and the windows of the houses were curtained off, revealing nothing.

Then the door of the house at the far end of the area opened and a man came out, and James and Ariel were surprised to see him.

He was tall, with pointed ears, a very fair complexion, and pupils of deep blue ice.

"An elf," James said, and with that, the man came to a stop almost five metres away from them.

"State your purpose, please." the man said, and as he spoke, the curtains in all the houses opened again, and the gaze turned back to them.

"We have come to look for a place to stay if you have permission and if there is an empty house or a hut, we would like to stay."

At James' words, the elf looked around at the surrounding houses and then asked, "Are you strong?"

James nodded, pointed to Ariel and said, "This woman may be the strongest woman under the 30th floor. And I am strong too so yeah."

When the elf heard these words, he took a deep breath let it out and said, "If you protect our village from the ice giants, you can even stay here forever."

The elf had met humans before and knew their greed and even recklessness, so he did not expect to hear a positive answer, but he would do his best to negotiate.

"Sure, no problem for us." James had higher plans already.

The elf shook his head when he heard those words and then began to tremble as if he had lost the strength in his legs.

"Really? The frost giants are very powerful, we can't even repel them without the help of the dwarves, but they have their own families, so they can't always help." the elf said.

Hearing this, James replied, "As I said, both this woman and I are quite strong, fighting is not a problem for us, and I have hunted giants before."

With that, Ariel stepped forward and then said, "I'm Ariel and this is Umbra. What is your name?"

The elf managed to regain his strength with these words and then said, "My name is Narbeth, I am the leader of this huge elven village."

With these words, Narbeth raised his hand in the air and then released his mana. With the release of this great mana, it was as if illusions began to disappear.

Dozens of stone and wooden houses began to appear around. Children, women, and men, old and young stood around James and Ariel.

"I apologise for the illusion, even though they are no longer extinct on this floor, humankind were cruel, they made everyone slaves and many other things, and we had to keep the illusion active all the time," Narbeth said.

Hearing these words, James said, "That's pretty cool," and said that he didn't care about what happened. With these words, Narbeth gestured to her own house and then said, "Please come with me, my wife will make the best food you will ever eat in your life, even if we have a food shortage, my wife is the best cook."

When James and Ariel heard the words about the food shortage, they looked carefully at Narbeth and the elves around them, and then they both noticed the exhaustion on the faces of all the elves, each of their bodies seemed to be slowly collapsing.

The two of them looked at each other after seeing the surroundings and then James scratched his head and reached for his inventory.

"Can you open up a bit?" Ariel asked, and with Narbeth's order to retreat, James began pulling closed crates from his inventory.

While the elves around were trying to figure out what was going on, James had already dropped over a hundred crates into the snow-covered square.

After yawning, he asked, "There are many kilos of meat, vegetables and drinks here, I don't know how many people live in the village, so I took out this much, do you need more?"

James saw Narbeth's shocked expression as he said this, and then he saw that the people around were watching him with their mouths open.

James approached Ariel in surprise and then asked, "Did I do something wrong?"

Ariel smiled and said, "It would be better to do this in a private place, you shouldn't get carried away so fast."

James looked at the people around him and then said, "I will be in charge of this floor, in the future Ariel and I will be the ones to run it, I am stating this on the mission the tower has given us, we will show the mission to everyone and gain your trust."

Narbeth and the others were about to speak when they heard these words when James' voice came again:

"With me and Ariel here, no one will ever die of hunger or cold again, no one will fall victim to frost giants or any other monsters. I swear to you on the honour and majesty of the Chaos Guild."
