Chapter 3: Chapter Three: The Three Elves

Every day, Kevin would be trained to fight with fists, arrows, and swords, but even after all those training, he is still weak to fight a baby elf. It was as if his body was cursed from being able to fight. The wizard was so worried about Kevin but despite all his magics and tricks, none of it were able to make Kevin grow stronger. And so he gave up and told Kevin to train all the time, maybe someday, he would get stronger.

Kevin was with his bow and arrow and he was following after disciple Bona who was taking him far away from the house to shoot at some birds or rabbits.

They got close to a tree where several birds could be seen flying and singing and then Kevin prepared for his hunt.

“Aim correctly this time,” Bona said as he pats him on the back and Kelvin drew his arrow, ready to shoot at one of the birds.

He had a bird in sight but as he was about to let go of the arrow, the bird suddenly flew causing his arrow to hit only air.

Bona sighed as he shook his head in disappointment. Kelvin saw the expression on his face and felt sad for himself.

“I’ll go get the arrow,” Kevin said as he walked off in a distance.

.....

Another disciple who had been watching Kelvin all the time had walked towards Bona.

“What are we going to do with this kid, Silas?” Bona asked the other disciple.

“What do you mean? We would just wait till master gets an awakening spell for him. At least if he knows how to fight, we’ll be able to create an artificial Elf ear he could use and we’ll be able to leave this forest once and for all.”

Because of Kevin, the wizard would often stay in the forest and the disciples who had pledged to always stay by their master the Wizard had no other choice but to be in the forest with him. Although the wizard had told them to leave without him, they insisted on being by his side at all times.

Some of the time, they would leave the forest for their families in the city but they will still come back to the forest.

“So, what about the ring we found yesterday? Has the master discovered anything about it yet?” Bona asked.

“No, I think it’s just a ring lost by someone. Although it has this creepy feeling about it.”

Kevin had gone past the area where his arrow had fallen to, as his mind was flooded with lots of thoughts. He was lost in thought that he didn’t know he was nearing some groups of elves who had come to hunt some forest animals.

The elves were three in number, and they were all males. As they were busy scheming through the forest for something they could hunt, one of them suddenly saw a human walking toward them.

“Guys, come and see this.” Dan had called his fellow brothers and they had also seen that Kevin was coming towards them. They didn’t see wings on his back nor did he have Elf pointy ears so they concluded that he must be human.

“We can’t lose this opportunity, we’ll be able to sell that human for five emerald gems if we capture him. That way, we’ll be able to attend the academy.” Dan said and the other boys’ excitement had quickly grown.

“Let’s do this.”

An arrow was sent flying his way and at the last moment, Kevin snapped out of his thought and managed to dodge the arrow but it still sliced through his arm.

“Gosh, when did I get here?” Kevin panicked as he started running towards the forest house but the three elves started chasing after him.

While he was running, Kevin had seen a big rabbit hole and he quickly hid in it. The three elves got near the rabbit hole but they couldn’t see any travel of Kelvin.

“Heck! He escaped.” Dan shouted and the other two boys were angry as well.

“Now we’ll not be able to enter the Mage Academy.” Another lamented.

“Forget about the Academy, we didn’t even have the emerald that we’ll use to pay for the fees.”

“My stomach hurts.”

“Let’s head for the mountains, we could find something valuable to hunt along the way,” Dan said and the two elves nodded in agreement. They picked up their bows and headed for a different destination.

After they were gone, Kevin got out of his hiding and started running towards home. But while he was trying to get out of the rabbit hole, he failed to notice that there was a cliff on his way. He fell down the cliff and started rolling downwards. His arms and hands had started bleeding. “Gosh, why do I have to be punished this way? I just wanted to see the city that’s all. Then why?” Kevin shouted in anger.

He stood up from where he had fallen and saw that he had just appeared at the back of their forest house.

“Thank Goodness, the cliff is not too deep,” Kevin said as he dust off the dirt that was on him and then washed his bloody arms with the little water he found at the forest house.

Afterward, he entered the house only to meet the wizard’s angry face. The wizard was frowning his face that it had made Kevin’s heart start beating loudly for fear of what was going to happen next.

“You! Where have you been?”
