"You wish to be acquainted with humans?"

In a corner of the great elven village, Gastair, where the branches up above had intentionally been cleared out to let the light of the sun pass, were two goblins talking over a table made of wood. It was the kind of place that the Goblin King would refer to as a park.

Studying goblins and demihumans from various villages could frequently be seen here.

Of the goblins that were evidently greatly influential were two goblins of the shaman class. Their ability to control the winds and their appearance that set them apart from other goblins have already been accepted by the elves.

"Yes, teacher. I have been studying history lately, but the more I read, the more incomprehensible humans become. They are strong yet sly, powerful yet fragile... Exactly which of these aspects is their true nature?" Gi Do asked.

The king's most faithful goblin, Gi Za Zakuend, closed one eye and took a deep breath. "Is that book something you borrowed from that elven princess too? You shouldn't get involved with her too much. It'll only hurt more later."

"I don't think I follow." Gi Do Buruga said; he was another shaman goblin as well as a student of Gi Za Zakuend.

"Both aspects are true. You recall the king's treasure, yes?" Gi Za said, moving on with the main subject.

What the goblins referred to as the king's treasure was the human maiden the king had with him back when they yet knew of the human threat. Her name was Reshia Fel Zeal, a woman and a saint blessed with the power to heal wounds.

"That inexhaustible source of life, the power to recover one's wounds instantly. With that by our side, it was like we could be brought back even from the dead. But despite possessing such great power, even a normal goblin could kill her. You could say that humans are imbalanced creatures," Gi Za said.

As Gi Do nodded, an elf called out to them.

"Mind if I join?" The voice said.

When the goblins turned, what greeted them was a cute elven girl. She had inherited the looks of her parents and was blessed with a noble face. She also had an unyielding spirit which showed through her slightly lifted gaze. She had light clothes on as if she were about to go outside, but what she had on hand was not a weapon but a thick book.

"Lord Shunaria!" Gi Do happily welcomed her.

Contrast to Gi Do's glee, however, Gi Za had a look on his face as if someone unwanted had come.

"It's fine. We were just wrapping up. Gi Do, don't cause trouble for the young princess," Gi Za said.

"Yes, teacher," Gi Do said.

Gi Za turned heel and went back to his lab, leaving the couple to happily chat among themselves.

Gi Za was researching about the blood of demihumans.

He knew that there was a power hidden within their blood from the demihuman war and the old documents of the elves, but he did not know how and what kind of power it exhibited.
