I regressed and became the Sword Ice King-Chapter 250 - - Elsie’s Story 5
As the moon stood in the sky, its luminance cascading whispers upon the darkness of the night, blood painted its canvas in a gory hue of carnage and death.
Zon, Melf, and Wilol were circling one of the members of the Red Peacemakers, the muscular-looking woman, while the others had their fair share of the skinny man.
Elsie was left to face Gonzalo alone, and the carriage was set off for departure.
The series of events were not going their way.
"Zon! The carriages!" She cried out as she charged at Gonzalo like a speed train, slamming her head against him with brute force.
Gonzalo groaned slightly, his feet dragging against the earth as she pushed forward in an attempt to lift him off the ground.
"You crazy mutt! You’re strong for a wolf" he said as he locked her head once again, but this time, Elsie was prepared.
The wind suddenly picked up around her as she easily lifted him off the ground and charged at one of the burnt-down homes.
With a swift push, she slammed him into the pile of burnt wood, her ferocious growl burning with desire.
While she was locked with Gonzalo, Zon and the others quickly changed tactics.
Zon glanced at his teammates, his silver eyes brewing with intent.
"Melf, take care of this woman with Shozan and Wilol!" he instructed before howling into the sky.
His sudden action caught the people off guard as a bright light ignited into the skies, illuminating a blinding light against the humans.
They groaned from the intensity as the sounds of growls pierced the skies, followed by a darkness that swallowed up the light.
Shozan, Wilol, and Melf had suffused with the darkness of the night like a shadow, dashing around at a speed unimaginable as they sank their teeth into the muscular woman.
She had not even received her sight yet, but the pain that bore through her shoulders and right leg as they were torn off in unison caused a sickening sensation to sweep up her very being.
She was shocked with her saliva as the gruesome sound of blood spurting out of her torn-off parts pierced the silent night.
The bright light finally disappeared, and the other skinny-looking man was seen in a worse-off state, his limbs torn to shreds with a pool of blood forming around his near-death figure.
Gonzalo had shielded himself from the light with his armored helmet, but Elsie had been affected unknowingly.
The Darkpelt were usually immune to the brightness caused by the Sunpelt tribe and that was because of their affinity to darkness.
They could easily block the light by covering themselves in a fog of shadow while they waited for it to die down, but Elsie had no such qualities.
Something that Zon had to realize the hard way as he rushed after the carriages, just to find Gonzalo getting the upper hand against her.
"Mark! Save Elsie!" he said in a rush as he ran past them, his gaze fixed on the carriages that had nearly escaped their sight.
At that point, Gonzalo had been covered by his shadow armor, with two giant arms protruding from the back with his great sword on each.
"Elsie?! You’re a girl?! Wonderful!" he screamed out as he punched Elsie on the side of her neck.
She howled in pain but her will to fight had never dropped. With the wind at her aid, she spun around in the air and bit down on his armor.
The sound of metal rattling pierced the air as she growled and picked Gonzalo off his feet by controlling the wind, she pulled him into the air and slammed him into the ground, a ferocious vibration spreading through the earth as Gonzalo yelped in pain.
"So what if I’m a girl?! Do you think I will let you touch me?!"
Her voice was like a powerful matriarch, despite her eyes being closed. She was a wolf, and she had her ears and nose as well as mouth and teeth to take the place of her sight.
This was nothing to her, but to the others, the brutality of the fight between them was enchanting.
Melf, Wilol, and Shozan stopped and watched while the other males rushed to join them.
One of them, Mark, had attempted to aid the princess but Melf stopped him at that point.
"The princess is in danger," he said, his voice laced with curiosity.
"Do you not see that right? That is something a wolf our age shouldn’t be capable of". She said as they turned towards the fight scene.
Elsie and Gonzalo were locked in a blow-off as Gonzalo threw punches at her while Elsie slammed him with her head and clawed at him with her fangs.
Every part of her was used as a deadly weapon, making her fighting style erratic and difficult to follow.
"How can she fight like that? The light should have blinded her" Shozan said with c4uoisty in his voice.
"More than that, she’s ferocious. It was wrong of us to judge her poorly…But…" Wilol muttered silently.
"She is not one of us…" Melf completed his statement, her gaze laced with discontent. "None of the tribe’s people like her, and the chieftain is tired of her behavior. It’s best we let her fight and leave her to her fate".
"What do you mean?" Mark muttered in confusion, he growled and attempted to rush off when Shozan jumped in to stop him.
"The royal princess is in danger! What bullshit are you spouting?! Protect the royalties. That is our job as tribesmen of the Darkpelt".
"....but is she really Darkpelt?"
Mark widened his eyes slightly as his gaze shifted to the fight scene.
Elsie’s movements were indeed ferocious and erratic for a wolf, but she heavily relied on the wind to achieve most of it.
The Darkpelt is a tribe of darkness, not wind. So, is she even darkpelt?
"Zon won’t forgive you". Mark said with the click of his tongue as he turned away in anger. He howled into the air and rushed away in the direction of Zon and the carriages.
The other wolves followed in his league, with Melf being the last.
She watched the scene unfold one last time, an evil glint sparkling in her eyes. ’How dare you covet what is mine’.
With a loud howl, she turned away and rushed after the pack, leaving Elsie to her fate.
Gonzalo had punched Elsie a few feet away, his armor a sorry state from what it once was. His two greatswords had been broken from the constant thrust and push and he now held his claymore.
"Hah Hah! Seems like you were abandoned by your pack".
"I was not" she charged in like a bull, relentless and ferocious. Her teeth left ghastly wounds across his shoulders.
"You stupid mutt! I am a berserker".
His body suddenly ignited with a crimson burst of energy as he swung his claymore against her tough skin sending a wave of pain as it slammed her away like a baseball.
Her body smashed into the ground, leaving a crater. She howled in fury. Blood dribbled down the side of her body, head, and mouth as she growled ferociously at Gonzalo.
’I need to escape…the longer I drag this…the stronger he gets’.
Berserkers grew stronger with blood, but Gonzalo was different from many. He was a shadow berserker, Something akin to the Darkpelt dark element.

He had an affinity for the shadows and at night, he was constantly filled with it.
"Even if I don’t take the others. I must have you".
He said, pointing his blade at her as balls of red energy formed in the air. It crackled and hummed to the intensity of its energy as it was projected at Elsie at a sudden speed too quick for the eyes.
Elsie had seen it a mile away though, as she charged sideways, dodging the I’m coming blast of energy balls that exploded on impact with the ground.
The ground shook from the intensity of the vibration as Elsie charged in after dodging the last.
Gonzalo sidestepped, dodging her by a hair’s breadth as he raised his claymore in the air. He grunted as he pulled it down like a guillotine, his gaze fixated on her onyx fur when she suddenly slammed into him with the side of her body.
He groaned in pain as his gaze shifted towards Elsie’s, her crimson eyes filled with rage fixed on him.
She suddenly disappeared into the air, reappearing a far distance away from him, but Gonzalo’s gaze had locked on her figure since a while ago.
He charged into the forest after her, a mad cackle escaping his lips as he did so.
"You’re not escaping me!" he screamed out as an orb appeared in his hand. He broke it, causing a red ray of light to pierce through the air before throwing the broken orb away and increasing his pace after her.
