It is a good thing that the death energy is thin here in the outskirts. Even our Wight neighbor could not carelessly go into the deepest area of the Misty Forest. I have seen his hand slightly disintegrate upon just reaching out there." Elder Ceo stated with a grave tone.

The mist is filled with death energy which is great for those that can absorb it in their body. Levin Cloud could easily do so because of his constitution. Creepysoo could also do so to an extent, but it is also limited to the amount his body could transform to the one circulating in his body.

"If even the Mist Elves are having a difficult time in the middle area, then only those that can purify death energy or those with strong life energy could travel safely there. Anyways, we have gone to a tangent, but we are not here to ask you about the mist here. We came here because we need information about the Horseman of Pestilence." Levin Cloud stated.

Elder Ceo is shocked as she thought that the new guardian that visited them would be the one that will stay with them. Even though she thought of this, she heard a title that she never really wanted to hear ever again. The Horseman of Pestilence is considered both the blessing and the shame of the Mist Elves.

Elder Ceo then proceeded to tell them about the things that she knows of the Horseman of Pestilence. She was an Elder of the Mist Elves that is famed for her amazing prowess when it comes to handling a bow. She also has the ability to infuse the mist circulating in her body to the bows that she releases.

"That is all that we know of but there should be a more detailed history of her in our ruined village. The only problem is the fact that we cannot easily get there because monsters are now occupying those ruins. The records should still be intact as it is located in a very secure place." Elder Ceo stated.

"If it not much to ask, can you guide us to the secure place that you are talking about. We really need to know of the weaknesses of the Horseman of Pestilence. The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse have been released upon the world because of the greed of men for their powerful weapons." Levin Cloud stated but Elder Ceo is thinking whether she should agree.

Elder Ceo also wants to put their ancestor to rest as they knew what happened to her as there have been people from her previous party that returned albeit incredibly injured. The Mist Elves know that their species has been betrayed by those of the ones they call the Church of Light. It is also the reason why they actively hunt any member of that church when they are in the Misty Forest.

"I will help you not because you asked but we also need to get a treasure that the deceased guardian has left us. It should still be in our ruined settlement, and we were not powerful enough to get it, but we can get it with your assistance." Elder Ceo stated as she knows that Levin Cloud could part away the mist.

"Agreed. Thank you very much." Levin Cloud replied as Elder Ceo informed the other Mist Elves that she will move.

"I really wanted to meet that Wight though, but it seems that he only comes here once a month. It seems that he was an alchemist when he was alive." Creepysoo stated as he wanted to meet another Wight as the only ones, he knows is him and the Undead King Arthur.

"We can always return but the things about the Horseman of Pestilence comes first. I am just glad that the hierarchy still affects them which is why things became easy. It was a good thing that I chose the southern part." Levin Cloud stated as he wanted to praise him for his good decision.

"You mean, it is a good thing that you suck at rock, paper and scissors and lucked out in getting the south one." Solstice stated which made Levin Cloud blush a bit.

The Mist Elves are not all riders of mount, but their elite unit are all comprise of them. The leader of that elite unit is none other than Elder Ceo. Their mounts are none other than the mist monsters that appear near the outskirts. The most common of their mounts are the Mist Ram that is the easiest one to take care off.

The Mist Ram are monsters in the Misty Forest that have the appearance of a ram that is two meters tall. Instead of fur, its body is literally comprised of mist like fur, but it could be physically felt. They also have strong horns that could easily kill anyone that gets rammed. It is also easy to maintain as it eats the mist and any other plants that contain the mist.

There are currently two mist elves riding a Mist Ram accompanying Elder Ceo. The elder of the Mist Elves on the other hand has a different mount which is the Mist Panther. The Mist Panther is mostly found in the middle parts of the Misty Forest and is a great predator of incredible strength.

The Mist Panther is about two and a half meters tall with its fur also looking like the mist. The most noticeable ability that it has is its ability to fuse with the mist. It can blend with the mist in order to go into stealth which makes them perfect ambush predators. Its footsteps are also non-existent which makes it the perfect assassin as long as the mist is around.

This mist might be the perfect thing for the Mist Elves and all those that live in the Misty Forest, but it is also the thing that restricts them. They are no longer as special or as powerful when they leave the Misty Forest. One could say that they are birds that caged themselves in their nests in order to be safe from the world outside.

"Do you need a ride, esteemed guardian? We are still safe at the outskirt part as the death energy in the mist is not that harmful. We will proceed with caution once we reach the entrance of the middle area." Elder Ceo asked as she does not want Levin Cloud to walk towards there.

"No need as I can ride with my friends." Levin Cloud stated as Solstice summoned her yeti while Creepysoo summoned Don Quixote.

"Please follow us closely as my Mist Panther could scare the monsters in the outer area but there have been times where monsters from the middle area come here. We shall lead the way!" Elder Ceo shouted in order to increase the morale.

"May the Wandering Mist protect you in your journey!" All of the mist elves stated as they slightly bowed to Elder Ceo.

The group went on their journey and the monsters in the outskirts are indeed wary of the Mist Panther. With Elder Ceo in the lead, the three friends could have more time to observe the surroundings. They were slightly relaxed until both Levin Cloud and Creepysoo could feel a change in the density of the death energy.

"We have reached the entrance of the middle area." Elder Ceo stated as all of them dismounted.

They all agreed to stop before the entrance of the middle area as three wanted to test out their theory. They will also proceed at a slower pace here as they took the longer route so that they will go straight to the ruined settlement.

Levin Cloud looked around and could see that the mist in front of him is definitely darker in color compared to the current ones that are in the outskirts. He touched the mist or rather stretched out his hand to test his theory and a rush of death energy suddenly jolted him from his thoughts.

The touched felt like a small current is passing though his body but not to the point that its detriments him. Creepysoo also reached his hand out as he was told that the Wight that did so turned its hand into bone ash. Just as Creepysoo reached out his hand, an immediate shock greeted him, and he started taking damage.

"The damage to me is bearable since I have a covenant with the God of Death Abaddon, but a foreign substance is indeed mixed in with the mist. If it was just pure death energy, then I will not even get bothered." Creepysoo stated as he retracted his hand.

The others did so as well, and they had the same reaction as the two being jolted but they lost health much more. Levin Cloud knew that they cannot proceed easily if that is the case since the mist also negated regeneration which means he really needs to do something.
