Chapter 1

I don't know when or how but i fainted. Probably out of starvation. I was struggling to open my eyelids but when i did open them up i was in a warm bed with my clothes changed and that i no longer smelled or have slimy gunk on my body. Then I heard the voice of a child saying something along the lines of "mommy she's awake!"

"Ask her if she feels alright okay dear?" A motherly voice responded to the child

"Okay!" the child responded. Then a child who looks around the age of 6 with golden tanned skin stumbled into my room and awkwardly asked if i was okay. I chuckled. Then i noticed the pointed ears that the kid had. Which was a symbol of the elves. "Uh are you okay? I asked if your okay? MO-"

"Yeah i'm fine." i replied before the kid shouted for her mom. By the way where is this place?" i asked the child.

Looking around i could see that i'm not in a place on the ground and that there were trees of colossal sizes from the opening carved into the tree i'm in.

"We're in the elven kingdom!" replied the child.

"Elven kingdom?" "and where would this place be within it?" i asked.

"We're really really far away from where the fighting is against the bad humans but the ruler of our kingdom is a big bad! The child said.

A big bad.. Bad humans.. fighting.. I nodded along taking note of what shes saying.

"Hey miss why were you covered in slime when my mom brought you in?" asked the child.

I froze up. How was i supposed to explain to a child that i had been devoured by a giant toad then getting transported to another world? I looked at the child and saw an innocent curious look on her face.

Thankfully her mom came in and and shooed the child away. She plopped herself down on a chair nearby and opened her mouth to speak to me.

"I'm sorry for what happened to your family" the mom spoke somberly. I was confused so i asked "what?"

"I only saw you when i was out in the woods. Your parents probably died protecting you." the mom said with a sad look on her face.

"But if you want you can stay here. I'll provide food and shelter for the time being until you want to leave." said the mom with a smile on her face. "I'm sure my daughter Mia would love your company."

Ah she thought that i was a lone survivor of a wild beast or something.

"Thank you miss-"

"Tania and its okay if you call me on a first name basis." then she relaxed "i feel uncomfortable when kids treat me formerly. It's something that i'm still getting used to."

I looked at her and saw that she had some scars on her body. Nervously i asked "this might seem like a stupid question to you but is slavery a thing in this place?"

"Well yes." she said looking down. "It's such a disgusting animalistic practice that almost all places have." she said.

"I see." in truth i wanted to know whether or not the scars i saw on her were from slavery or not. But looking at her face made me question whether or not i should ask further

"If your wondering if i used to be a slave. Then yes i was." she said looking at me in the eyes.

I unconsciously leaned back. My hands were starting to sweat. And my eyes darted around the room.

"Oh!" Tania gasped. "I'm so sorry. I must be making you uncomfortable." she said.

"Yeah kinda" i said. Then i blurted out "You know.. I was supposed to die in 13 days.. But.. i think i'm saved now."

"What?" Tania asked visibly confused.

"Its nothing" i reply.

"Well anyways i hope you have a nice stay-"

I was about to reply satou ren but then i stopped. What should my name be? Im a 15 year old elf.. And i'm a girl.. Whats a girls name? I stopped and contemplated meanwhile Tania just sat there waiting… and waiting… until she finally sighed and said.

"It's alright if you forgotten your name, that happens to some people after a traumatic experience."

Then I got out of the bed and slipped my feet into the default shoes that yggdrasil players get.

After that i started wandering around the place.

I quickly got lost and had to have Tania guide me around with Mia following along. I learned that this place was the village of Safelog. And that it was generally self ruled as the elf king didn't care about this place because it was peaceful here. The elf king despises peace as it generally does not produce powerful warriors that the elf king wants to bed for his sickly reasons.

Because it was peaceful thanks to its location there were many things that the villagers enjoyed that other less fortunate villages and villagers don't. Such things were a bustling marketplace, and knowledge teachings that the village elders hold daily. Tania was planning on dropping off mia at a knowledge teachings by a elder when i asked tania.

"Knowledge teachings? So kind of like a school?""

Well yes but also no." tania replied. "Its kinda like a drop in school where everything is optional and you don't have to attend it if you don't want to. But it's customary for kids to learn tradition and skills from the teachings." tania explained.

"I see" i replied while chewing on an apple. "Can you take me there please?" i asked.

"Sure! Though older kids around your age usually grow rebellious and stop attending it so you'll be stuck with younger kids and adults and not a lotta older kids." tania replied. "And ill just drop you off along with Mia if that's okay with you." tania said to me.

"That's fine" i replied.

As we continued to stroll along i took in the scenery of elven woods. There's so much trees! Only the rich got to see trees in real life instead of in picture books back in japan! Then my mind wandered to another topic. I wonder im still multitalented or if the devil's curse wore off for sure. If im still multitalented then maybe i'm still cursed.

"Ah we're here now." tania said clapping her hands. "Now off you go mia and forgotten your name girl." tania said while waving goodbye to us.

"Bye mom!" mia said in a high pitched voice.

"Goodbye helpful mother!" i said waving goodbye.

"I'll pick you girls up at the normal time!" tania said before leaving.

I asked mia "whats the normal time?" as i wanted to know when i'll be leaving school.

"I dwunno" mia replied shrugging her shoulders.

Alright then. Guess ill be staying here for who knows how long. But as long as i get good info from this elder im all for it.
