The Elves had the power to manipulate nature and that included trees. Why would they even build an actual wall made of stone or whatever when they can just employ the trees of the woods for the same purpose? They were able to control all the trees using magic, and over many years, they formed an enormous and tall fortress and walls made of living trees which were all coiled against one another. It was as tall as 50 ~ 60 meters, and it was quite beautiful.

”As I explained before, this fortress and the walls were made by us Elves over many years… With this and the help of the Guardian, we had been able to fend off the armies of demons and humans for a while…” Said Elfina. ”Phew, I am happy that Iʼm finally back home though…”

”Elfina is it true you were kidnaped? You never told me any of that.” I said.

”Yeah… I kind of was kidnaped…” She said. ”After that they blackmailed me, making me choose between summoning a Hero for them or having the Elven Kingdom attacked…”

”Damn, I guess it was fair I killed them.” I said.

”N-No, it was still wrong!” She said. ”You killed too many innocent people…”

”Meh I only killed those that came for me. The citizens were mostly all spared.” I said. ”Soldiers, Knights, and the like are prepared to die since they begin working in such jobs. Donʼt cry for their death. They got what they were looking for by attacking a powerful and mighty caterpillar such as myself.”

”Ugh… I-I guess…” She sighed. ”Thanks for that but you kind of overdid it… Well, whatʼs done is done…” She said.

”See? I am a good person, stupid dragon! I helped her. Without me, Elfina would be dead!” I said to the White Dragon.

”Well you were a subproduct of her being forced to summon you to begin with! That damned Kingdom wanted a powerful Hero from another world to monopolize and protect their land all while using him as a weapon of war.” Said the white dragon.

”Are there other summoned people in this world aside from me?” I wondered.

”There was, in the past. But they were all feeble beings that die after living around eighty or so years, the last one that passed away was roughly twenty years ago. Youʼre the only one of your kind and if the book that was used to summon you was destroyed in the attack you did against the Kingdom, they probably canʼt summon beings from other worlds any more… Honestly, they should had treated you better, youʼre already incredibly strong and could had been everything they wanted…” Sighed the White Dragon.

”Yeah but they treated him like an abomination and a monster…” Said Elfina. ”So at the end, she was attacked and… thatʼs where everything started. She began killing everybody and we ended here.”

”Hmmm… I see. So thatʼs how things went at the end, huh?” Asked the White Dragon. ”Well I already told you all the dangers that are coming our way, isnʼt it? the Kingdom might had their royal family destroyed and even most of their military strength but they got close ties with the Empire and other adjacent nations. Theyʼre probably going to chase you down to the ends of the world, and even in here… The Demons are something at the side compared to the fury and stupidity of humans.” Sighed the White Dragon.

”This is already a dying world where all gods are gone and I am the last of my kind. To think that these bastards would have the time to do this when the Demons are trying to eat them alive… Disputes between territories for resources are becoming common place as well. Demons are more aggressive lately, they used to be a peaceful race but the conditions of their Land have forced them to become aggressive and to seek rich land to conquer for their own survival… The last Demon King doesnʼt help either, it is said to be a tyrannical overlord with the rare Chaos Element at his disposal. He contracted a group of wicked maniacs, the Demon Lords, and granted them powerful Titles and weapons to conquer the land of humans and slay anything they find… They probably sensed you being summoned due to their akin Mana Sense.”

”Oh, I see…” I said. ”So the demons are being forced to being aggressive because they want more land, huh? Well thatʼs a pity… Hah, so sad…”

”Youʼre not concerned at all, arenʼt you?!” Asked Elfina and the White Dragon at the same time.

”Hey! This is not even my world! Elfina brought me here forcefully- Well I actually died so I am grateful for her because I was technically revived by her but still! I got my own business in my own world. Thereʼs a massive war between Supreme Gods going on… I got a whole family, you know? I have several wives, children, and an enormous family, and I used to be the Goddess of Chaos in there… But I died by the hands of the other Supreme Gods… I left the power I had to my beloved Slime wife, and I am here now, trying to grow strong enough to be of some help for them again all while trying to find a way back home…! Canʼt you at least put yourselves on my shoes for a little tiny bit?”

I ended ranting more than I should had, but the two ended staying still looking at me in surprise… And then they broke into laughter.

”What?! You?! A goddess? HAHAHAHA! What a good joke! Thereʼs no way a cocoon like you could had been a goddess!” Laughed the White Dragon. ”What sort of story is that? at least make it slightly more believable!”

”Y-Yeah, thatʼs way too ridiculous! Thereʼs no way a monster like you could have wives and children like you said… Unless they were all caterpillars too?” Asked Elfina while containing her laughter.

”Ugh, you bastards are the worst! I am saying the truth!”

I am containing myself from smacking these two.
