Isekai For My Ex 95 Join The Resistance?

After getting lost I finally arrived at the council of ten chambers where they formed a semicircle as they sat on the ground solemnly, while the female elf Lyra, standing at the side of the entrance of the cave.

She was the one who talked too fast that I followed the other female elf instead, surprisingly they look the same even when she told me earlier that they weren't related by blood. Really elves are strange.

"How unfortunate, that I got lost, and then some female elves tried to jump on me, perhaps they wanted to take a look at my weapon that much?"

I whispered to Eagle, he then responded by looking at me for a while and looking down as if sighing, it's the first time I saw a bird sigh, well on the inside it's a full grown man.

"Mister... why have you become so dense since coming here?"

He transmitted his thoughts to me, as he chirped.

"Dense? Me? So they are still hiding other intentions than seeing my weapon? Then they want to know about the magic bullets?!"

"Mister... I'm glad that I'm in bird form right now or else I would cover my face, too embarra.s.sed for your sake."

Raven for the entire time was sleeping, because of the dimness of the cave. Raven wasn't as talkative as Eagle, and won't engage in small talk.

He also doesn't help in my torture sessions and makes excuses to fly away.

l stared at the leaders, as I stood, waiting for them to start, I don't intend to sit down with them; I think it will be rude.

There's lady elf at the center, their leader, she's the one I met before to whom I had those flags scattered and gave those annoying amulets that dark-elf commanders used to defend against my spells.

To think she's the leader… well, I went to that center tent which looks more grandiose than the others.

But I think the lady's barrier is fairly strong without those amulets. If only they had more attack power… well it would be useless against those anti-magic elements. I'm glad I received new magic stones from the last resupply such as [Gravity], not only I can drop meteors I can also direct where I want it to drop and the force is much stronger, as such instead of raining down small meteors one big meteor is enough to crush, that annoying number of dark knights.

I also needed to preserve my inventory or else it would run out before the next resupply, but I hope it won't come to that, I need to finish everything this year.

I pursed my lips as I thought of Claire.

Claire… hang in there, just another more year, please…

As I was preoccupied by my thoughts, the lady spoke first.

"First, I would like to thank you for your help, the resistance, formally the Free Elven Forces are grateful to you, our savior"

She bowed towards me together with the other council of ten, solemnly as they close their eyes.

Their bow is pretty, the same as how they were in j.a.pan in my old world.

In response, I bowed my head and placed my hand at my heart, the way I did it in the human realm, these are small gestures that makes me remember that I have somewhere I have to return to after everything ends, and also my promise to Michaela.

"Now, the second thing, I know this is sudden, but I want to know if you're interested in joining the resistance? I don't know where you are from, but judging by it we have the same enemy, right? It makes sense that we should work together, right?"

I intend to do so, but I think it's not enough. At this rate, they will be useless to join with, and I might have to play in their own rules and rank.

I have to play my cards right, or it would burden me along the way.

"Sorry."

I shook my head, telling them no for now.

I think this is the best answer, I'm fighting here for my reason, aside from that I don't want my actions to be restricted by them.

Hearing my response they were for a second shocked and wide-eyed, some of them were in agape. The leader lady herself looked sad as she looked downwards and closed her eyes.

"Why are you apologizing? You have the right to refuse, we are grateful enough for your help that time, but will you let me ask one question?"

I nodded in response to at least hear her out.

"What do you plan to do from hereon? May we know?"

I intend to help them while keeping my distance, in a way that they won't rely on me too much, my aim is one thing, as long as I can achieve that, nothing else matters, I can't have any more burden than what I already have.

After they take back their kingdoms, I'll watch by them as they'll be able to self-rule after this war, in a way that evil forces won't defeat them again, the evil forces who wants to climb up to the realm of the humans.

But I already planned out that there is to be gained by helping them a bit, as they have fought longer than me.

"I plan… to teach you�� how to fight… my way… of fighting. We have… same enemy"

Their saddened faces now returned to normal as they gaze at me intently.

Oh, they look happy. I hope they didn't misunderstand what I told them with my poor elven language.

This time they don't have any disagreements this time when they saw what I could do, back then when they visited me they told me how sly my tactics are, but now that they've experienced that victory through that strategy they called "dirty" they are now willing to take it on.

They excitedly talked with each other, especially the three generals. I imagined elves to be lean, that these bulky elven men look different.

But they got too noisy that the lady in the center stopped them.

"Stop discussing amongst yourselves you're supposed to be the council of ten."

She told them in a graceful tone but with a menacing aura oozing out from her.

I think if I take her one on one, I wouldn't be able to defeat her with that magic of hers.

But also with her magic, I can devise a more efficient way to use it against those creatures.

"Sorry about that disgraceful display, our comrade Slaine, they must be so excited. But really… sincerely, I thank you"

"No worries… for now… I'm tired… discuss… tomorrow"

"Yes, we prepared your quarters for you, please use it."

"Thanks… but… I don't need."

"Huh? But you are our savior, to honour you, we have to do our best to at least pay you back."

She worriedly asked me.

But I don't plan on staying in this cave, though it's safer than that obvious headquarters of theirs, I'm worried about Raven and Eagle.

Eagle can't see well in the dimly lit cave, and Raven sleeps when it's dark.

"It's okay, I'll go… surface."

I raised a hand and turned back to where I entered the cave.

At least I can sleep at the nearby trees at the forest, it's much comfortable living by the trees.

"Then at least bring Lyra with you, to a.s.sist you on the surface, you should be familiar of her right?"

Yeah, I'm familiar with her, first she is a klutz that slipped while trying to escape, and next she's inconsiderate and talks fast that I can't understand her well when she speaks to me.

Are they sure? And look at her, looking so prideful… or maybe I'm judging her too early, after all, earlier when we came down she also said those un… necessary things.

Anyway, it would be rude to further reject their kindness.

"Okay."

I nodded and walked away with the elf girl following me.

Tomorrow I'm going to introduce and teach them the basics in guerilla fighting.

Magic is a stronger weapon than guns, aside from they can cast it endlessly as long as they have mana.

If I teach well these tactics, it would drastically increase their power.

The only problems are those nullifiers, those are their natural enemies and the reason they fell so easily.

I have to also understand more of their magic and find efficient ways to use it.

But so far from what Raven and Eagle collected for me, this world has a rule when it comes to magic in this world.

One, magic casters can cast different magic spells but aren't able to connect them or layer them together like what I do, this is because probably it conflicts with the magic user's mental state and their understanding in the elements themselves, if they try to cast two spells on the same time it would cause an interference as they don't know what shape it will take, this means that they can know how to cast a high-tier magic, but if they don't understand its nature and behavior, and how it will take shape, they wouldn't be able to use it efficiently.

Which is why those who only saw the magic and undergone training in it, can learn it.

Next, two or more magic casters also can't combine could also cause interference with each other according to their basic use, which is why magic casters can counter the enemies spell, for example fire against water, they would cancel both if the elements meet.

The rule seems to be fire vs water, wind vs earth.

That's why magic caster needs to learn not only one magic but more in case their first element find its match.

And finally, there are more spirit users than here than magic casters, their magic comes from their spirits or they call it partners, which comes from the land itself, and it seems that the older the spirit is the stronger it is, and those stronger spirits are located at the kingdoms which they don't have access to.

So right now the elf-priest Ellarian, member of the council of ten, can only a.s.sign lower to medium ranked spirits to the new spirit wielders.

There are exceptions such as their leader earlier, that lady Alla — or something, who possesses a high-level spirit. I wonder what element was that barrier made of? If I know what it is, it could become a significant a.s.set to their resistance.

As I thought and walked by the cave following the elf girl that I saved back then, she seemed to take glances at me. Maybe she still couldn't trust me? Or was she ordered to keep an eye on me?

I don't know, women are too hard to understand.

Basically, the common traits of elves are their ears, skin color and hair color, that's why I'm freaked out that their hair colors are the same, as it would be hard to hide my black hair, but it seems my display earlier made them not to pry further into it.

But when I looked closer, I noticed that they each have their own characteristics, that now that I saw lots of them face-to-face today, I can differentiate them from each other.
