That elf sat on the chair and took something out from her pocket. It's a necklace with a emerald green diamond shaped as its pendant. She looked at it intensely for quite long time.
She had a long green hair and wore something like maid uniform. Her looks were filled with sadness.
"... there's no one coming after she entered this building. Seemed i can talk to her"
Yana approached the door and knocked it.
-tok tok-
!!
She was really surprised and alerted by that sound. She reached the short knife on her back and took her stance.
"....please. I'm not your enemy... not for now"
"....you're human. Just go before i kill you"
"hmm, i don't think you can do that. How if the soldiers find out about it?"
"....you human always play with your words.... truly an evil creature... "
"ahaha, I'm agree. Human is really an annoying creature"
She didn't reply and kept her stance.
"can i come in? there's no one else here. I can guarantee that"
"don't make light about promise human! I'm totally understand that your kind never meant anything by their words"
"then, you can kill me if I'm lying. After i opened this door, you can confirm if I'm lying or not"
There's no changing in his intonation. Elf had a very keen hearing to the point they could tell if someone lying or not. They were blessed by nature and had larger mana capacity than any other races.
"...how do you find this place?"
"i followed you from near the fort"

".... impossible, i should hear your steps when you're doing that"
"hmm..... i don't think so"
"..what do you want from me?"
"just let me come in, it's faster that way"
"....."
Just what this human possibly want from her? she couldn't guess it. Maybe let him in was the best option after all? if something happened she could handle it.
"take several steps back from the door"
"sure"
-krieet-
The door opened. She could see a man standing there, wearing strange uniform. He put both of his hand in the air and showed that he meant no harm. She looked to the outside and made sure no one there except two of them.
"come in"
"got it"
Yana stepped in and she closed the door. The short knife still gripped by her and her guard was not lowered at all. Yana just stared at her and didn't say anything.
"tell me...what do you want human?" She glared at him
"despite your anger and hate to human, you are still allowed me to come in. That's mean... no matter what the condition is.... no one should know about this place"
-zriiing-
The short knife already made some little scratch on his neck. Fresh blood started to flow, tho it's only a little wound.
"just..... what do you want human! i can kill you easily, no one will find your body here"
"yet you don't that, and still want to hear my reason"
She showed a frustrated expression. Seemed this human was more complicated than any other that she already met this far. No, there's a human that like him, the commander.
She put down the short knife and looked at him. just when Yana put his hands down and wanted to talk, She casted a skill.
[VOID]
Suddenly, around Yana's head a transparent circle covered his head. Only few seconds, he realized that circle was like a vacuum, there's no oxygen there.
"think i will show some mercy? not after all that cruel things that your kind did to us..." She gave this cold stare
Yana tried to say something, but without any air, his voice couldn't reach her.
"struggle as you want, but i won't undo my skill..."
She tried to find out what's this human purpose, and she was very sure he would tell her after feeling this almost death situation.
One minute passed and Yana still stood there. There's no panic or fear expression on his face. For an elite soldier, he could hold his breath for more than five minutes. This situation only made her become more confused.
two minutes, three minutes passed and he still stood there. When more than five minutes passed, Yana closed his eyes and tried to not thinking about the pain from lack of oxygen.
"you're no ordinary human... but you are at your limit... soon you will reveal your true nature"
She approached him and asked him once again.
"tell me, what do you want?"
Yana was still silent, well he couldn't talk even he wanted to. He started to lost his conciousness and his sight started to become black.
-brugh-
He fell to the floor. She only stood there and looked at him.
"...even until he fainted.. there's no changing with his expression and the mana flow in his body...."
She sat on the chair and sighed while showing a troubled expression on her face.
"i don't have time for this.... for all of my people sake... -kkgghh-"
"I WILL KILL THAT MAN"
