My Elf System - Chapter 140

Chapter 140: 140. World Tree.
Aside from The Phantom Empress and The Queen Of The Dead, The Lich King was the third ruler in the nether realm, and he also happened to be an Apex Mage, just like everyone else.

Noticing that Evelyn was ready to talk, everyone remained silent as they listened to what she had to say.

“I’m sure we all remember the war between the Titans that occurred a few years ago.”

“Of course we do,” Isabella replied.

The Titan’s war happened just after the old gods were killed.

The Three Undead mages wanted to be in control of all the realms, so they waged war against the seven kingdoms in the mortal realm.

However, each of the seven kingdoms chose a single fighter from their Kingdom with Evelyn being the representative of the elf kingdom.

Evelyn and the other six warriors then joined forces to fight against the three undead mages and their armies.

The war lasted three hundred days in the celestial realm and was forever remembered as the Clash Of Titans war.

In the end, the seven strongest mages of the mortal realm won against the three undead mages and their armies.

The three hundred days battle was so intense it led to the destruction of the celestial realm, which also happened to be the home of a world tree called Nordrassil.

Just like how there were four different realms in the world of Aethoria, there were also four different world trees.

Nordrassil stayed in the celestial realm while Yggdrasil stayed in the mortal realm, but it could only be found in the elf kingdom.

The other two world trees stayed in the spirit realm and nether realm, respectively.

In the past, right after the celestial realm was destroyed, Nordrassil should have been destroyed as well, but as long as the three other world trees were still alive, Nordrassil would grow again.

“So, she’s here to have her revenge on us?” The Queen Of The Dead asked.

“It seems so,” Evelyn replied.

“This explains why some weird things have been happening in my kingdom lately,” The Lion King suddenly realized this while stroking his chin.

“Argh, now it all makes sense,” The demon king placed his palm on his face.

He, too, had been noticing some weird things happening within his kingdom, but now he was certain that it had something to do with Nordrassil.

Nordrassil’s goal was to return the world back to a period of war and chaos because she believed the Apex Mages were the ones responsible for destroying her home.

Hence, she infected Phil’s mana core with miasma, which aided in fueling his anger and hatred towards the Elfrida royal family, whom he believed were the real reasons why his brother was killed.

Nordrassil was also the one who corrupted Neil’s mana core and that of his attendant as well, preventing them from thinking rationally because their minds were only focused on having revenge.

Nordrassil also placed different dark magical artifacts in different kingdoms in the mortal realm because she wanted the rulers of the mortal realm to fight against the leaders of the nether realm.

This was why two dark magical artifacts and a goblin king were found in the elf kingdom.

Although Nordrassil was a celestial realm world tree, one might wonder how a celestial realm world tree could get its hands on dark magical artifacts.

This was because, as a celestial realm world tree, Nordrassil’s role was to create dungeons and labyrinths in all the other three realms.

She could place different kinds of artifacts for adventurers whenever they cleared a final boss on one of the floors of a dungeon or labyrinth.

However, when the celestial realm was destroyed, the three other world trees took up the role of creating dungeons and labyrinths in their respective realms.

“So, what are we going to do?” The Lich King asked the question that was currently on everyone’s mind.

“If Nordrassil is truly back, then she’s probably trying to rebuild the celestial realm,”

“Yes, then I think we should destroy it once again,” The Dragon King suggested.

“Do we really have to do that?” Isabella questioned.

“I don’t really think we should destroy the celestial realm for a second time,” King Edward made his own suggestions as well.

“Then what do we do?” The Phantom Empress asked.

Evelyn and everyone else discussed for a long time what needed to be done to prevent another war from occurring in the world.

As much as it was exciting to fight during a period of war, the Apex Mages had come to enjoy a peaceful and more tranquil style of life.

War was a useful tool in driving knights and mages to grow stronger, but for more than two decades now, the Apex Mages had noticed how the world had grown and improved a lot compared to the past.

Also, it was more peaceful and relaxing to undergo indoor meditation which aided in increasing their ranks just as much as fighting during a war did.

Meditation might be a lot slower, but it was more relaxing and all the Apex Mages agreed on this.

Also, Nordrassil wouldn’t be able to do anything for now because she knew they had discovered her plans by now, and she would rather stay in hiding until she believed it was time for her to do anything again.

However, deep down, all that Nordrassil wanted was for the Apex Mages to apologize for what they did to her and the celestial realm.

If they could do this, Nordrassil would be more than happy to listen to anything they had to say.

In the end, they concluded that they would search for her within both the mortal and nether realm

They would also look for her within the spirit realm and where the celestial realm used to be located.

Once Nordrassil had been found, an agreement would be made between her and the Apex Mages that they would help to rebuild the celestial realm so as to prepare and train the next generation of gods who would rule over the world from the new celestial realm, as the True Gods of the world.

Evelyn and the Apex Mages would be allowed to stay in the celestial realm as well, but they would be given a respectable position in the realm, and they wouldn’t be known as Kings and Queens of the mortal realm anymore, rather, they would be known as the…
