APPEARANCE (ITZY YUNA X MALE OC)

Chapter 22

LLOYD'S POV 

I don't really know how many times I have been inside the circle, but I'm finally seeing a light coming from the other side of the door. I'm about to reach Svartalfheim, I wonder if it's as beautiful as Alfheim is. 

I close my eyes tightly, and once I open them again, I find myself in the middle of a huge room filled with dark elves. They are like the light elves, but their skin is dark. There's only black, grey and brown elves here. Kinda upsetting. 

Suddenly, a taller elf who also has horns, points at me with a kind of came and raises my head. His red eyes are looking not only at me, but also piercing inside my soul. He's the exact definition of intimidating. 

-???: Who are you? (serious) 
-Lloyd: Ah yeah, my name is Lloyd and I come from the Earth-
-Someone: He's a human! 
-Someone 2: How's possible for a human to come here?! 
-Someone 3: They are trying to attack us to make Svartalfheim theirs! 
-Someone 4: It's the end, I knew that this would happen sooner or later. 

I look around and from a moment to another, all of them start mumbling about me. This is awkward, I need to explain myself better. I don't want them to think that I am the enemy. 

-Lloyd: No, actually-
-???: Silence! Someone, take him to jail, we'll need to ask him some questions. And judging by the answers given, I'll decide whether he's worth surviving or not. 
-Lloyd: Wait, wait, let me explain-
-???: I said silence, you human! (raises the cane) I won't hesitate to hit you with this to death (glares at you) 

What am I supposed to do? They keep on insisting that I'm a human. They are really violent, exactly the opposite of Baron and the rest. I just arrived, and they already threatened me. Amazing, I think they'll be better for fighting against the church. 

They use a rope to tie my hands together so I'm not able to do anything against them, at least that's what they think. They are dragging me around dark tunnels, it's really impossible to guess where I am heading to. All the walls look the same to me. 

-Soldier: (pushes you inside a cage) Stay there in silence until the governor comes. 
-Lloyd: The governor? 
-Soldier 2: He said silence! 
-Lloyd: Yeah yeah, I'm sorry… (closes his eyes and sighs) 

Out of all the places I could have appeared, I appeared right in the middle of the throne. I'm really lucky… Now I'm supposed to be a human prisoner waiting for my executioner… Clive would be really mad for this waste of time. 

But I can't do anything about it, I need to talk with that governor anyway. I'll take this chance to rest and recover from the last magic circle. I lay and close my eyes dozing off. 

-Time skip some hours later-

I'm enjoying my little nap, when suddenly I feel something pinching me. I open my eyes, and bump with a soldier using a stick to wake me up. These people really don't know what modals are. 

-Soldier: Wake up, you are in the presence of the governor. 
-Lloyd: Finally (yawns and gets up) 
-Governor: Humans are really horrible, how can you be this ugly? 
-Lloyd: Sorry? (chuckles) Talking about beauty, I don't think you are in position to say so… 
-Governor: Are you calling me ugly? 
-Soldiers: (put their swords inside the cage) 
-Lloyd: Of course not, I meant that you are much superior and that's why you shouldn't talk about beauty. It's humiliating. (lying) 
-Governor: You have a point there… We are here to ask you some questions. Who are you? 
-Lloyd: Lloyd Bishop, I come from the Earth. 
-Governor: Okay, Lloyd Bishop from the Earth, how did you find us? 
-Lloyd: Well, I know about all the magic creatures… (smiles) I have visited the light elves too. 
-Governor: Ugh, those spoiled weak mosquitoes. 
-Lloyd: Mosquitoes? 
-Governor: You may not notice at first because at first sight they are innocent. But stay with them and you'll notice how they use you, just how a mosquito sucks your blood. 
-Lloyd: You have a point there too. 
-Governor: How did you reach Svartalfheim? 
-Lloyd: I used my powers, I created a magic circle. 
-Governor: That's impossible for a human, you can't trick me, I'm not a fool. 
-Lloyd: I'm not trying to trick you, I'm being honest. I'm Lloyd Bishop, a wizard. Actually, I'm a descendant of the first ever witch to exist (smiles) 
-Governor: (laughs) With that appearance? Descendant of a witch? 
-Lloyd: (rolls his eyes) I'm being serious. 
-Governor: You are a kid with guts, trying to fool me twice. I'll need to think of a nice punishment for your daring attitude (smirks) Maybe death? A slow and painful death? 
-Lloyd: You'll be the one who will receive a punishment if you don't believe me. 
-Soldier: Watch your mouth with the governor, human. 
-Lloyd: What's your real name? 
-Governor: You don't need to know (serious) 
-Lloyd: (sighs) You don't leave me any other option. I didn't want to go rude, but it's the only way to make you all cooperate with me (starts crafting)
-Governor: W-What are you doing? 
-Lloyd: I'm proving my identity, and also teaching you a lesson. You shouldn't judge someone by his appearance, you know? Even the most beautiful butterfly could be a monster (smirks and opens the cage with the key crafted) What do you think? Do you believe me now? (smiles) 
-Governor: (chuckles) A key? You could have stolen it from one of the guards… You are just using tricks. 
-Lloyd: (sighs) You are really stubborn, you know? 
-Governor: I'll kill you, human. 
-Lloyd: You know, I know a lot about elves. Not only about their worlds, but also about their weaknesses. 
-Governor: What do you mean? (serious) 
-Lloyd: Do you know a cute puppy named Fenrir? (smirks) 
-Governor: T-That can't be possible! (panicking) You are a liar! Fenrir can't find us here! This is all just a trick! 
-Lloyd: You sure? (smiles innocently)
