My Name Is Kios, Kios Niftalia And I’m A Slime.

Chapter 18 - 17: Where’s Niftalia?!

Izuna:F*********CCKKKKKK!!!!! NO THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENING... HOW COULD I LET THIS HAPPEN... The only one who ever cared... I'm useless completely useless...

She screams with an expression that transmits extreme sadness and guiltiness with a tone that expresses the same feelings while crying rivers of tears.

Ionia:hahahahahagagaga!!!! This is a nightmare, right? Ignia you're using your illusion Magic on me again, right? Stop it, STOP IT NOW PLEASE!

She said with a desperate expression and tone giving off the feeling of being lost while also crying.

Ignia: now's not the moment for that we have work to do.

She said with her face down and a serious tone.

Izuna: WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU?! DO YOU NOT CARE ABOUT MASTER NIFTALIA!!?? ARE YOU THAT COLD?!

She yelled obviously pissed at Ignias words.

Ionia:...

Ionia was simply looking at her as if she had just cursed at God in the middle of a church.

Ignia: DO YOU REALLY THINK THIS DOESN'T AFFECT ME?! BUT WE DON'T HAVE A CHOICE BUT TO WAIT AND DO WHAT WE WERE TOLD TO!!... Yh, I'm scared, yeah I don't know how to feel about this but I know that before disappearing my King ordered us to do something and even if you two aren't going to, I'll do it while I wait for him to be back... Now if you'll excuse me I have elves to help, Ionia are you coming?

She said lifting her head and showing her tears coming out and flowing down her face. Izuna looked at her and didn't say anymore.

Ionia: why go there and wait? How are you so sure he's even alive? Are you going to say we have to believe in some faith bullsh*t?!

She asked confused.

Ignia: do you really think these marks would still exist if he was dead?

She questioned while pointing at the purple mark on her right arm.

Both Ionia and Izuna stop to think for a second then stand there motionless.

Ignia: anyways, Ionia are you coming? If so ask your crying friend if she's willing to do something besides just crying?

She said with a pissed expression and tone.

Izuna: Ionia tell your sister I'll be fine just staying here and waiting for myself.

She said also pissed.

Ionia: I-.

She tried to speak but before she could.

Ignia: tell your friends that she will get punished by my king's mark if she doesn't do anything for the elves!

She said even more annoyed than before.

Izuna: tell your sister that I'll just guard this stupid village but I'll not help them directly even if it kills me!

She answered just as annoyed.

Both of them(Izuna and Ignia): hmph!!

They looked at each other and turned their faces around.

Ignia: do whatever you want, just don't trouble us and for the sake of my King cause for me it wouldn't matter but just don't die. Also, Ionia collect all the unconscious elves and bring them to the center of the village I'll heal them.

She said without looking behind and then started walking deeper into the village.

Ionia: on it sis... Hurh, She's so bossy when she's mad and worried. Well better get to work... I hope he really is ok otherwise...

She said while looking at her sister go into the village's central area with a slightly worried expression and tone, then she started collecting the unconscious elves.

As for Izuna she also left but in the opposite direction leaving the inside of the village and standing in some random tree reflecting about something.

(Ignia's pov)

I really don't get why that stupid dark elf with those annoying jiggling acc.u.mulation of fat doesn't want to help... I also don't like these people cause they first attacked us without being sure of our intentions than this happened to King Niftalia because of them so I don't really like these people but that doesn't mean I can't put up with it until King Niftalia is back... Soooo annoying with those fat things, why don't mine grow at least 10cm ?!?! I'm an absolute flat c.h.e.s.t... I guess my good looks can somewhat compensate but my female pride continues to slowly die, my mother said female dragons have until 15000 years to grow some but I'm nearing the limit point and am still completely flat at least my back is well-formed and s.e.xy but my flat front is a problem... Should I lower myself to the point of getting fake ones? No! Forget that idea if someone ever discovers it's the end of me, it's gonna be all like: how did they get that big suddenly? I can't risk that especially if King Niftalia notices.

I head to the biggest treehouse and jump up to the entrance and go in without bothering to knock the door... Well, there's no door so I guess it's fine.

I walk towards a corridor that actually has doors making me question why they don't make front doors but their rooms have doors... not that it matters anyways my objective right now is to know what's inside the last room, judging from the barrier surrounding this place it's probably something dangerous for them even tho I don't feel much of an aura I would say whoever it is should be around rank G-H not any stronger than that... it would be great if I could use appraisal without having to look at my target but that's only wishful thinking.

I move closer to the door and slowly open it...

Ignia: oh my... I never thought elves could be this barbaric, how disgusting is this? Well, at least she seems to be alive... How could I be so careless as to not notice the kind of barrier used right up? I must have lost my talents after being trapped in that despicable dungeon for so long.

I said surprised by the sight in front of me.

The girl in front of me has an almost totally dried out body little to no mana, a great puddle of blood surrounding her... There are also brushes all over her body probably from torture not to mention some of her fingers were cut off... Disgusting. I'm used to cruelty and I don't mind it at this point but I'm not pleased by unnecessary cruelty, she has been here for a day I would say and already in such a sad state... I surprised to not see any signs of s.e.x.u.a.l abuse but that will probably happen sooner or later. I don't know why this girl is in such state or why she was locked here with such a nasty barrier like a drainage barrier but these elves probably have their reasons, so I won't meddle in it the only thing I wanted to confirm is if she's a possible danger and being only in level 22 and only having her skills at that level, she shouldn't be hard to deal with.

After observing her for a little I turn around and start walking but.

Girl in a terrible state: please... *huff* he- *huff* holp ma.

She tried speaking with a very broken speech and breathing heavily while grabbing my leg.

I understand why she would beg for help in her state but I can't help her... Not in my current position at least until I know the full picture.

Ignia: sorry but it's not in my hands, I hope you survive till it is.

I answer to her wholeheartedly request with a cold answer and leave her in the hands of destiny, I push her hands away from my leg then leave the run by closing the door.

Girl in a terrible state: NO, NOH *HUFF*, NOO DOYN LELIA MA!! *HUFF*...

She screamed with the little strength she has left.

She's in such a bad state not because of the torture but because of the drainage barrier that drains mana, hp, and stamina from those inside it. Fortunately, it doesn't affect targets that are more than 5 levels stronger than the user so it doesn't affect me at all also the reason why I couldn't detect it at first it's too weak.

After a while, I could no longer hear her screams.

Once I'm outside I find a pile of bodies that give off a weird impression like if sacrifices being readied for some sacrificial ritual, I get down from the tree and go near the pile of bodies.

Ignia: you didn't have to make a pile you know?

Ionia: yeah, but it takes too long to organize them.

Ignia: why are you so lazy?

Ionia: why bother to work if you can get what you want the same if you don't? People worry too much, if it's not for Lord Niftalia I don't think I'll ever feel like working again, besides I have a great big sister like you to do everything for me so it's all fine for me. Oh yeah if you find a strong person tell me I haven't had a good fight in some time.

Ignia: you... You... * sigh* seriously, how are we even sisters?

Ionia: we were raised together and with the same education, the difference is I didn't let myself get brainwashed into a hard-worker *yawn* and...

She stopped talking and started looking at the sky with a sleepy expression before actually falling asleep on the ground.

Ignia: did she really just fall asleep, while talking to me? This... I'll just heal these people and then I'll have to talk to them about how things are going to work from now on.

Then I healed all the elves there not taking too long to do so after I was done they woke up one after the other and all reacted negatively to seeing us which was expected, some even tried to attack us so I knocked them out again. After everyone was calmer I explained part of the situation of course not mentioning we have to serve them but instead said we have to help them also hiding some other minor details but as obvious they didn't simply believe me and it took a long while to convince them. Then they guided me to where their remaining elders were hiding with the other elven villagers and a spirit girl, she must be the one Ionia talked about... So this girl is a high spirit?! Why does she look so weak? She's only on level 35... I'll ignore her for now.

Then I talked to the elder elves and after telling them my half-truth I was able to properly negotiate our position in the village and how we will help them.

______________________________________________________

In a weird space that has nothing but white, there is a pink-haired kid sleeping on the white floor that seems more like a floating pad than anything else, after sleeping for a long while the kid woke up.

Niftalia: huh... where am I? Oh yeah supposedly my existence was erased... so what exactly is this place?

He asked but got no answer.

Niftalia: assistant skill you there?

No answer was given to his question.

Niftalia: I suppose I'm alone, better get myself comfy while I search for a way out of here.

He then turned into slime form.

Niftalia: no matter how I try my teleportation, space manipulation and even hacking and cheating skills don't work but I don't feel any weaker so there must be something interfering with them... No other opinion I'll have to do things the old fashioned way.

Then the small pink slime started moving into a direction for long hours, then days, then weeks, then months with nothing but himself there. He tried many times to talk to his assistant skill but with no results.

Niftalia: I'm starting to feel like I'm very, very slowly weakening... this is not good. I think this place has no mana and I have been using my own to survive meaning I'll only last some centuries before I die... that should be enough time.

Once again starts moving towards the same direction without stopping.
