The Newbie God Is Summoning Heroes From Earth [World Creation/ Management]

Chapter 99. A Tree’s Scheme To Fleece Innocent Dwarves.



Inside the Crystal Cube world, Borston, Eikard, and the other elves have entered the village.

Because of Elisa's reminder, the elf in the village gives the team a resting place while sending a team to inform the city about the dwarf's appearance.

While waiting, both parties realized they were using different languages to communicate. That is why they are busy trying to find a way to talk with others.

After several attempts, Borston and another elf are trying to converse using hand signs. Although some hand signs might be wrong, they can barely understand each other that way.

While waving his hand to try talking, Bortson suddenly saw a screen in front of him.

[Hello there, this is the creator god talking. I am giving you knowledge about the elven language.]

The instant he saw that screen, Borston felt unknown information forcefully entering his brain. Due to the sudden stimulation, he went into a daze and stopped responding to the elf in front of him.

It took him half a minute to come back to his senses. The moment he came back to his senses, Borston felt surprised because he could finally understand what the person in front of him was saying.

"Hey, are you alright?" The elf said while furiously waving his hand.

Borston got shocked when he heard it. He could actually understand what the elf in front of him was saying.

He recalled the messages that suddenly appeared in front of him. 'Just what is the screen that suddenly appears in front of me?'

While he is trying to understand what happened, Borston heard Eikard shouting, "What the? What is happening?! Hey, come out and explain yourself! What happened to me? I suddenly felt many confusing memories in my head."

Borston turned his head to look at Eikard, who was furiously waving at the air in front of him.

He wanted to warn Eikard not to shout, but before he could do so, Borston heard a surprised gasp from the elf in front of him. "He talked!"

The elf shouted while pointing at Eikard. Actually, without the elf's shout, Eikard's shout has pulled every elf's attention.

Looking at the surprised elves and the confused dwarf, Borston immediately understood. 'Did Eikard just talk using the so-called elven language?'

Meanwhile, after the confusion, the dwarves around Eikard fell into panic upon seeing the elves looking at Eikard after he shouted gibberish.

One of them came forward to nudge Eikard, "Hey, Eikard, what have you done? Did you accidentally curse them in their language? Why did they seem extremely surprised?"

While that dwarf nudged Eikard, the other dwarves also tensed up. If what the dwarf said is right, that means Eikard might've made those elves angry, so they must be prepared to defend from attacks.

While they're getting tense, they can hear Borston's calm voice. "Everyone, there's no need to get cautious. It seems Eikard and I have just gained knowledge about their language." Borston said while pointing at the elves.

Every dwarf, including Eikard, looked at Borston in surprise.

"Did you also see a screen in front of you before you gained that ability?" Eikard asked.

Borston nodded, "There's a screen saying 'Hello there, this is the creator god talking. I am giving you knowledge about the elven language."

"I also got the same message. After that message, a piece of knowledge suddenly appeared in my head."

"Same with me." Borston said, "It seems our ability has something to do with the creator god mentioned on the screen."

A slightly older dwarf suddenly chimed in. "Oh, I know about it! I've read a legend about the creator god before. From the record, the ancient dwarf king has mentioned meeting the creator who lived above the clouds. Because it's just something casually said by the king, there isn't much evidence or traces about the creator. So, most simply forgot about it. Although I suspect the top council member knows more about the truth." The old dwarf said the last sentence with a gossipy tone.

"I learned about it because of an event that happened a few years ago when a dwarf suddenly appeared along with the blessing stele. I tried to find records about similar events, but failed to find any. Instead, I found it contained many records about the creator."

While the others are listening to the old dwarf talk about the creator, Eikard and Borston start chatting with the elves. They didn't talk about any important things, and mainly talked about the situation in their respective area.

They talked for a long time and only stopped to rest when evening arrived.

***

Around the time Borston and Eikard received the language blessing. Inside Elisa's city, Elisa is currently watching drama as usual when she receives a sudden message from Cedric.

The narrative has been illicitly obtained; should you discover it on Amazon, report the violation.

[Sorry to come unannounced. I forgot language barriers between elves and dwarves existed. So, I am going to give you a blessing so you can understand the dwarf's language.]

Before Elisa can process what happened, some memories appear in her mind. When she regains her senses, she can feel additional knowledge about an unknown language.

Cedric's sudden appearance and how he directly shoved the knowledge about an unknown language into her mind made Elisa speechless, "I kinda felt like I've been assaulted."

[Have you received the dwarf language?]

If she had an eye, Elisa would've rolled it up, "Can't you give me time to prepare? Why did you suddenly shove that knowledge to me?"

Before Elisa could get angry, Cedric immediately apologized while also throwing a benefit.

[I apologize. Anyway, I still have another language blessing containing the dwarves' language. I'll let you decide who you're going to use it for.]

When she read the message Cedric sent, all of Elisa's complaints disappeared.

She knew that who she used the language blessing on is extremely important.

Although she also has a blessing, Elisa understands that she has been reincarnated as a tree, which has made her mobility extremely limited. That's why she needs to choose someone she can trust and won't cause any problems during the exchange with the dwarves.

Elisa rustled her leaf in thought. At last, she came to a decision, "Can you give the other language blessing to my mom?"

In the Divine Space, Cedric smiled when he heard Elisa's response. "As expected, she chose to give it to Ghiana."

[Alright. You can call her and tell her about the language blessing beforehand.]

Cedric indeed has prepared the other Language Blessings for Ghiana. No matter what, Ghiana is one of the best choices to lead the first meeting between dwarves and elves. That's why he readily agreed and waited for Elisa to bring Ghiana and explained everything to her.

Once Ghiana is prepared, Cedric uses his last [Language Blessing] and gives the dwarf language to her.

After Ghiana learned the dwarf language, things proceeded like normal for the next two days.

After two days had passed, the dwarves followed one of the elf villagers and arrived near Elisa's city.

Borston and the other dwarves saw the city in the distance and gasped in surprise.

Amidst a field full of wheat, a massive city surrounded by walls stood tall. Even from a distance, Elisa's massive tree canopy can be seen, which increases the city's mystical aura.

"What an amazing city." Borston praised without hesitation.

The elf villagers became proud when he heard it, "Of course, the city in front of you is our best city. It's all thanks to Elder Elisa, Elder Ghiana, and the other governors' hard work that the city has reached this level."

When they moved closer, the dwarves saw a lot of elves entering and leaving the city.

Under the elf villager's guidance, they walked down the road and entered the city.

Along their way, the surrounding elves looked at the dwarves in curiosity. But before they can strike up a conversation with the dwarves, one of the elves Niel prepared has arrived to greet them. "Greetings, people from foreign races. Elder Elisa and Ghiana have been waiting for you."

The elf immediately guided the dwarves to the city's center. When they arrived at the center, everyone saw a massive tree standing tall amidst a garden. Below the tree, two elves are busy chatting with each other.

Sensing the dwarf's arrival, the two elves stopped talking and watched them. At last, the male elf came forward and introduced himself to the dwarves, "Greetings, I am Niel, you can think of me as the manager of this city."

Because Niel used the elven language, only Eikard and Borston can understand him. Both of them forwarded Niel's sentence to the other dwarves.

Following Niel's introduction, the female elf next to her also introduced herself to the dwarves simply and concisely, "You may call me Ghiana."

This time, Ghiana spoke in dwarven language, which surprised the dwarves present.

Eikard contemplated for a moment, "Did you also receive a blessing from the creator?"

"Yes, not only I but Elisa has also received the blessing from the creator."

"Will we also have the chance to meet Elder Elisa? I often hear Elder Elisa's achievements while traveling to the city, so I can't wait to meet them. That's why I am happy when I heard they have been waiting for us, but I don't think I saw them here?" Borston asked.

"I am over here, though?" Elisa suddenly spoke when she heard her name being mentioned.

Every dwarves turned to the source of the voice and saw the towering tree nearby. One of them asked, "Is the elder behind the tree?"

"Nope." This time, everyone can clearly hear the source of the voice.

"Ahh?!" Screams and gasps of surprise can be heard from the surrounding dwarves. Eikard even went overboard and screamed, "That tree is talking! Is it a monster?"

Borston frowned before he breathed in relief, 'Luckily, he screamed in our language.'

But before he can feel relieved for long, Elisa's next sentence makes him sweat.

"Yeah, I can speak. And no, I am not a monster. Perhaps."

Hearing Elisa's gentle voice, Borston felt his heart skip a beat. Especially since he already gained the instinct to sense danger after fighting against the giant ants for a long time.

His gut feeling told him the talking tree in front of him was powerful. She's so powerful that she would be able to wipe out their party in the blink of an eye.

He quickly walked toward Eikard and slapped him in the back of his head while apologizing, "I apologize for my companion's rudeness."

"I don't mind." Elisa casually replied, " Anyway, have you received the creator's message to work together with the elves and grow together?"

Because the three faction leaders in the dwarven council had a tacit understanding not to mention the creator, Borston didn't know the mission to visit the elves was sent by the creator. But he is smart enough to get some clues about it. So, he nodded to answer Elisa's question, "Indeed. Although there's no detailed command, we're sent here to visit your races to look for possibilities of cooperation."

Upon receiving the dwarf's response, Ghiana and Elisa looked at each other. Elisa doesn't have any eyes since she reincarnated as a tree, but Ghiana can feel Elisa looking at her.

Elisa controlled some plants to twist around Ghiana and turned them into Spanish. As a language from Earth, it's the best choice to communicate in secret. "From their response, it seems these dwarves are either not among the decision makers of their race, or the creator isn't as close to the dwarves compared to us."

Ghiana nodded; she agreed with Elisa's conclusion.

Elisa controlled the plant to twist into another sentence, "So, what should we do next?"

"Of course, we must make the cooperation with the dwarves happen. Even if we didn't include the potential threat from humans, the exchange between the two races would be extremely beneficial for us. But, we also need to plan to gain the greatest benefit in this cooperation." Ghiana spoke in Spanish to make sure others won't overhear their plan.

"Well, Mom, you can handle this." Elisa rustled her leaves while adding, "Also, let them get in contact with the TV. My gut feeling said it'll be beneficial to us."

Elisa and Ghiana discussed for a moment and at last decided to let the dwarves stay in the city for a tour. They'll also wait for the representative sent by the elf queen to arrive so they can discuss the future in detail.
