Manga Chapter 09

## To The Elven Village I

**To The Elven Village I** (エルフの里へ Ⅰ) is the ninth chapter of Skeleton Knight In Another World Manga.

## Summary

News of Marquis's Diento's death reaches the capital of the Rhoden Kingdom, Olav where King Karlon Delfriet Rhoden Olav and his children, Sekt Rondahl Karlon Rhoden Sahdiay, Yuriarna Merol Melissa Rhoden Olav and Dakares Ciciay Karlon Rhoden Vetran assemble to address the matter. There King Karkon asks who the culprit is, which the royals state it is unclear though its suspected it was the elves. Sekt though tells his father that there are rumors that the late marquis broke the pact with the elves, but Dakares believes they are baseless. Before the two squabble over the matter, Karlon tells them to stop and orders that an investigation needs to be dispatched to Diento. He asks his daughter Yuriarna for her opinion, which she tells her king that they will have to open a dialogue with the elven countries to resolve this or the elves will close trade with them through Limbult and cut them out of the Crop Fertility Runestones. The king sees that if that happens it will be detrimental for the Kingdom as not only will they be getting pressure from two nations, but also the nobles the king agrees that they will have to organize a talk. He then charges his daughter to get in contact with the elves at Limbult before ending the meeting.

Elsewhere Arc is busy fishing by a stream. He is brought to the elven village of Lalatoya where Uhna and Sena are reunited with their families. Afterwards Arc meets Dillan Tahg Lalatoya and Glenys Alna Lalatoya, who to his surprise are Ariane's parents. Dillan having learned of Arc's involvement in the rescue of his people is thankful for his aid in dealing with the corrupt noble. However the noble's death is unexpected, as the only intent was to stop the kidnappings. Ariane defends her actions in executing him as even though the Rhoden Kingdom was in a pact with their people someone needed to be punished. Arc takes the opportunity to inform Dillan about the slave contracts involved by the noble and his conspirators, which Dillan promises to inform the elders. The older elves treat Arc, Ponta and Ariane to a meal of stew and bread, a specialty of the village. The couple have been informed of Arc's condition which allows the knight to remove his helmet to eat without disturbing his hosts.

The next morning Arc awakens and finds Glenys up preparing breakfast. She informs the knight that Ariane and her husband have gone to the capital of Maple. The female elf then asks Arc if he would spar with her in a mock duel. Glenys having taught Ariane her sword technique wishes to see Arc's and measure his abilities for herself. In almost an instant Glenys charges at Arc, forcing him back. She later appears behind him and trips him. The female elf evaluates Arc that he has good vision but poor reaction. She cheers him on to duel her again which he agrees as Arc believes that real fighting experience would come in handy in the future. He attempts to land a blow on Glenys with his training sword but she evades, causing him to use [Dimensional Move] to get behind her. But even with that surprise move she easily lands several jabs at his body and defeats him again. Once training is over Glenys asks Arc to help her with dinner. Lying on the grass Arc realizes that despite his high parameters and abilities he is not the strongest in this new world.
