Picking up Girls With My System

The next few days after Arthur and the others arrived were peaceful. All the generals from the Elven army shared their thoughts and strategies with the rest of the captains, who shared it with the rest of the army.

A few catapults were also there, waiting for the enemies to arrive. Also, there were lots of archers, as it was the elves’ specialty.

Still, Arthur did not like the idea of knowing nothing about the enemy. He wanted to know their numbers, what enemies they were, and how far they were from the battlefield, and this sort of things.

For that reason, he asked for a reunion with the generals that were there, and one of them was Elanor, who did the recruitment test a few days ago.

They were all inside the biggest tent, planning the battle using a table that had a map showing the layout of the area.

The only reason Arthur got a reunion was because of Elanor, who spoke highly of Arthur, and even shared to the rest of them he had killed a Lava Worm.

“So you are the youth Elanor talked about? Impressive. I can sense great strength coming from you. Now, tell me, what do you want?” One general said.

Arthur first bowed to show them his respects, and then said, “I dislike the idea of having little to none information about our enemies, so I propose a scouting mission, alone.”

“A scouting mission alone? Interesting. What capabilities do you have?”

He knew they would ask that, so he planned on showing them two of his spells. First, the flight spell. Elves had both the wood and wind element, so it wasn’t uncommon for an elf to know how to fly.

The other spell he showed was the invisibility spell. It was a spell that did not have any element attached to it, which meant anyone could learn.

“This is incredible. Your mastery with the invisibility is so high that is almost impossible to see you. Even I, that is standing right in front of you, can’t tell you are here.”

All the generals were impressed by his showcase of abilities, and some even felt pity for him only being a recruit.

“Listen, kid. You already showed us quite the skill. If you fight well today, I can promise you will become a captain.”

“We all agree with your mission, but move alone.”

Arthur left the tent, smiling. They agreed to his request, which meant he would get more information about the enemies, and that would increase their winning chance by a lot.

One thing that bothered him was that the elves did not think of sending someone to scout. Was it because there was no one with the right skill set, or was it because they thought it was an easy win?

From what he heard from Kymil’s father, this fight was supposed to be the end of all these elves, but Arthur would do everything he could to prevent that.

He grabbed a black cloaking with a hood and left the area where all the tents were. Kymil saw his strange movement and went towards Arthur.

“Akhur, what are you doing? Scared of the battle and fleeing already?” Kymil said as he laugh, trying to piss Arthur off.

“Me? Fleeing? Wasn’t your father also a general? I don’t see him around this area. Maybe he got stuck in the bathroom shitting his pants?”

“YOU!”

Kymil was red with anger, but before he could do anything, Arthur had already vanished using his extraordinary speed.

The direction he went was where the enemy army should come from. Now, the distance they were was unknown to Arthur, and he just kept going until he found something.

Two days passed in the blink of an eye. Arthur made a few stops to rest, eat, but not to sleep as he did not need to. Finally, after 2 days, he found the army.

It was immense. The elves were proud to have around 15 thousand soldiers, but the dark race army? It was at least 4 times bigger.

That was not even the worst part. The worst part was the creatures of the said army. Dark elves, vampires, orcs, trolls, and even freaking werewolves or some shit similar to it.

There were also some flying creatures such as imps, gargoyles. Also skeletons. Don’t forget about the skeletons.

Arthur scanned them, and compared their levels to the ones from the elves back there in the camp. Most of them had similar levels, but the dark race army had a few individuals far stronger than the generals from the Elven army.

It wouldn’t be an easy fight, and Arthur did not know how they would win against it. He thought of attacking the dark race army right there, using one of his spells, but that could ruin the surprise effect, and also maybe make the army do a detour, and screw the rest of their plans.

So, just like the mission stated, Arthur was only there to watch and learn more about them.

With the invisibility spell, and also the vegetation to act as cover, no one from the dark races noticed a thing.

Arthur was scared that the vampires would sense him, but they did not. After he got the approximated number of creatures there, and their overall strength, he left.

He used his teleportation spell to get back, as it would make his trip way shorter. That would make the Elven army get the information way before the dark race army arrived, and it would surely be of some help. At least Arthur hoped so.

After 6 hours of constant teleportation and running, Arthur returned to the place where the Elven army was.

Elanor was outside talking with some soldiers when he saw Arthur.

“Akhur, how did the mission go?”

“Gather all the generals, now!”

~~~~

Inside the tent, all the generals from the Elven kingdom had worried faces, and some even shook in fear.

“What you say is correct? Are you sure?”

“I’m, absolutely.”

“Elanor said you killed a Lava Worm? Is that true?”

“It is, sir.”

“How strong are you?”

“Honestly speaking, sir?”

“Please.”

“I can kill all of you with my eyes closed and my hands tied up.”
