My Elf System - Chapter 131
Chapter 131: 131. Vanishing Runes.
However, they were unsuccessful in getting their revenge and wiping out the entire vampire race.
Salvatore had noticed what the vampire elves were up to, and so, to prevent them from carrying out their plans, he placed runes in all of their bodies.
These runes were unlike any other runes he was known for.
The runes were in several parts of their bodies, and each of these runes was programmed to explode once a vampire elf reached the transcendent mage rank.
“And that’s how so many of us lost our lives during the war,” Dahlia explained.
“The only ones left were those of us in rank nine or lower.”
“Even after Salvatore died and the war ended, the runes on our bodies remained intact.”
“We had no clue on what needed to be done to remove them.”
“We were forced to live our lives with the runes, as it constantly reminded us of what would happen if we were to increase our rank to the transcendent mage rank.”
“With no place to call home, we roamed around the world, not knowing exactly where we were going.”
Since the war was over, the vampires had no reason to keep the vampire elves in the demon kingdom, and the vampire elves couldn’t return to the elf kingdom due to the number of elves they had killed.
The elves were a race that lived for hundreds of years, it would be impossible for them to ever forget about the pain and suffering inflicted on them by the vampire elves.
That was why the vampire elves couldn’t return home.
Of course, they never wanted to hurt or harm their kind, but they had been ordered to do this and there was nothing they could do about it at the time.
The elves knew about these, but the pain of losing so many loved ones made it difficult for them to easily accept the vampire elves.
Evelyn couldn’t let them stay in the kingdom because of the tension it would cause to the other elves in the kingdom.
She had felt the same way about the snow elves as well, but because the snow elves were betrayed by the blood elves and lost a lot of their kind when the vampires and the vampire elves attacked, she decided to banish all the snow elves to the Northlands, which happened to be the coldest region of the elf kingdom.
“The rest of us understood why the queen couldn’t bring us back to the kingdom.”
“We do not hate her for the choice she made.”
“We really wanted to return back home, but we felt relieved not to have to see the angry look on everyone’s face in the kingdom.”
“I came here to the Fallen Angels kingdom and I’ve been here for more than a decade now.”
“I haven’t seen or heard from any of the other vampire elves and I can’t really say if they’re alive or dead,” Dahlia informed Orion while staring at the back of her hands.
She had been talking about herself and her past, and why she believed it would be difficult for her to be close to the girls who were watching Orion from a distance.
Orion didn’t even ask her to say anything about herself but she had done so nonetheless.
It had felt to Dahlia like she needed someone to talk to, hence the reason why she told Orion about a bit of her past.
She was also trying to let Orion know just how much it would mean to her if she could actually return to the elf kingdom.
Dahlia continued to look at the back of her hands. She channeled mana into her hands, and two different runes were now glowing brightly on the back of each hand.
When compared to something from his previous world, the runes looked like Norse runes, and there were countless numbers of them with little to no clue as to what each rune meant.
As a rune monarch, Orion obtained the ability to instinctively know what a few of the runes meant just by looking at them for the first time.
This was one of the benefits that came with being a rune monarch.

Meanwhile, Dahlia’s eyes remained fixated on the runes at the back of her hands. The runes couldn’t be scraped or scratched off because they had now become a part of her skin, and it would instinctively glow with an orange hue once mana flowed into her hands or some other parts of her body.
Dahlia didn’t even know why she decided to tell Orion all that she told him.
She felt a bit relieved to tell someone about how painful and horrifying it had been to live her life as a vampire elf.
She wasn’t even sure if he was listening to what she was saying, but she was glad to have finally expressed herself to someone.
With this thought in mind, Dahlia suddenly noticed Orion placing his hand over hers.
Her eyes widened in surprise when she noticed his hand over hers, but before she could react to this, she suddenly felt a warmth spreading in her body as Orion’s mana slowly coursed through her body.
Dahlia was rendered speechless when she noticed the runes at the back of her hands vanishing and dissipating into tiny particles as though they hadn’t been on her body just a few minutes ago.
There were twenty-four runes in total scattered around her hands, shoulders, forehead, chest, back, and legs.
However, as Orion’s mana slowly engulfed her, every single rune vanished away within the blink of an eye.
Dahlia hadn’t expected anything like this to happen to her, but based on what she could see, she knew that this could only be done by a rune monarch. But didn’t it mean that the elf prince was actually a rune monarch?
As far as Dahlia knew, there wasn’t supposed to be a rune monarch in the world anymore after Salvatore died a few years ago.
That was why she found it really hard to believe what she was currently seeing.
Dahlia was feeling a myriad of emotions right now and she didn’t even know how to react to what was happening to her.
She wanted to open her mouth to thank Orion at the very least, but just before she could say anything, Orion spoke first.
“I understand how you feel, but try to see this as your chance to start your life all over again. And the best way to do this is by making friends with a couple of ladies who are heading over here to see you.”
Orion informed Dahlia before standing up from the bench.
Dahlia didn’t understand what he meant, but before she knew it, the girls she had thought were spying on Orion suddenly walked towards her, sat beside her, and asked her several questions as though they didn’t mind what she was and the things she had done in the past.
