When the other elves woke up, they naturally looked at me with hostility like the blonde elves had done earlier.
There were some that even wanted to attack me, but Moon and the blonde elves quickly stopped them…Well, the blonde elves had more hesitation and only stepped in after Moon did.
But still, they helped me by stopping the elves from charging at me.
In the end, we were able to wake up all of the elves and explain the situation to them.
They all had doubtful looks on their faces, but in this situation, they had no choice but to play along.
After all, they didn't have any of their weapons and they didn't know what was happening outside. At the same time, there were many other elves of their group that were missing.
Namely, the warriors that were led by Apollo.
If they wanted to save them and escape this place, they had no choice but to trust Zwein for now.
After everyone had settled, Moon asked, "What do we do now?"
I nodded in response to this and told them the plan.
When the elves heard this, they couldn't help knitting their brows once more as they looked at me with skeptical looks, but I didn't flinch under this skepticism. I just calmly looked at Moon and waited for her response.
After a bit of silence, Moon gave a nod in response.
She then said, "That does seem like the best way to handle this, but there's a problem."
She waved her hand at everyone and said, "We don't have any weapons. I don't think that we'll be able to fight our way out like this."
I nodded when I heard this before bringing out the thing that I had in my pocket.
Moon's eyes narrowed when she saw this…since it was her Storage Ring that I pulled out.
She looked up at me with a strange look before reaching out to take it.
But before she could take it, I pulled my hand back.
When Moon saw this, she narrowed her eyes again before asking, "What are you doing?"
I revealed an awkward smile before saying, "Give me one minute first, I just need to take a few things out."
Then I started pulling out the different Storage Rings from Moon's Storage Ring.
I thought that the elves would be happy to see this, but to my surprise, I found that they were all staring at me with narrowed eyes that were filled with hostility. Even Moon was giving me the same look.
After a moment of silence, she suddenly asked, "How do you know how to use these Storage Rings?"
I was confused at first, but then I realized what she meant.
These Storage Rings were the treasures of the elven race and unless one was an elf, they wouldn't know how to use them.
So how did I know how to use them?
That was why they were filled with hostility as they looked at me.
I realized my mistake now, but there really wasn't time to explain…not to mention that I didn't have an explanation for them in the first place.
So I raised my hands and said, "There's no time right now. I'll talk to you about this later."
After a tense moment of silence, Moon finally gave a nod.
The other elves seemed like they weren't willing to accept this, but since Moon had already made her decision, it wasn't as if they could say anything else.
So the elves started taking their Storage Rings.
One of the blonde elves noticed that her Storage Ring wasn't here, so she asked me about it.
"I gave it to my group to use. We needed a place to hide our armours and weapons for now."
As soon as they heard this, all of the elves knitted their brows again.
They looked at me with the same looks as before, but they knew that this wasn't the time, so they went back to their own things.
That blonde elf still asked, "What do I do about weapons? It's not as if I can fight empty handed."
Moon was the one that answered this.
"Your weapons and armour are in my ring."
She took them out for that blonde elf before looking at me with a strange look.
missing.
The blonde elf took this, but she also looked at me with a strange look.
But that also wasn't the end of that since…the other blonde elf's Storage Ring was missing.
"I need that ring to hold a few things for me."
That blonde elf looked at me with that same hostile look, but Moon helped me again.
"He's an ally and he needs it, so just let him use it for now."
The blonde elf had an unwilling look on her face, but she still nodded in response to this.
After she defended me, Moon turned to look at me to say, "But I will need an explanation from you later on how you know how to use our Storage Rings."
I just revealed a bitter smile before nodding in agreement.
With this settled, there was nothing else for me to take care of here.
Since the elves knew what the plan was and what to do, I put on the Detection Ward and headed back to my group.
But before I went, Moon grabbed me by the shoulder and said in a soft voice, "Be careful."
I was surprised by this and caught off guard by how cute she was when she said it, but I still said with a nod, "I will. You be careful too."
She nodded in response to this.
I went back to my group and found that they were already making preparations.
Now all we had to do was wait for the right time.
Time passed and night soon fell.
When I confirmed that it was night outside and the feast was dying down, I went back and asked my group, "Are you ready?"
They all gave signs that they were prepared.
With that, the plan was put into action.
