Chapter 628: Awkward Reinforcements
Translator:imperfectluckEditor:Kurisu
The eighth year of the Dawn Generation was later recorded as one of the bloodiest years in history. This was because this was the year that the final Holy War started in full force. The days to come afterwards were destined to be filled with blood.
But right now, I was in an incredibly good mood as I looked at the bright sun.
With a veteran like Didina guiding the way, we had managed to arrive at the agreed upon meeting place on time. Of course, this wasnt the main reason why I was in such a good mood.
You must be in such a good mood because youre free from Elisa?
Ridiculous. Im really heartbroken and in such pain right now.
Youre totally unconvincing with the big smile you have as you say this. Im going to tell her!
Harloys, isnt it quite wonderful that your father is able to come along with you? How much money do you think the fairies will pay to obtain this explosive information?
After a short period of silence, Harloys and I achieved a tacit understanding as we looked at each other with mutual sympathy.
Why must people harm each other?
We should fill the world with love and peace.
We nodded in tacit understanding together as we let everything be gone with the wind Fine, Ill talk normally. Basically, this meant that our blackmail would cancel each other out, and that we shouldnt bring both of us down with our infighting.
That was rightElisa had helplessly left our party. We had taken a teleportation portal back to the mortal plane. It was impossible for a Devil Lord like her to take this portal, so she could only temporarily stay behind in the Chaos Abyss.
Regrettably er, I meant happily, this was indeed only temporary. When the demon wave descended, the mortal plane would become directly connected to the Chaos Abyss. Even Donatis would be capable of coming to the mortal plane, not to mention Elisa.
I had randomly given Elisa the task of causing trouble for our demon enemies just to give her something to do in the meantime.
However, to our surprise, Didina, who should have also been on par with a Demon Lord, had easily been able to come through the teleportation portal with us as if dimensional laws didnt even apply to her.
Dont be so surprised. Succubi like myself are quite weak. I probably cant even compare to an ordinary Myth-ranked Superior Elf, nor am I a Demon Lord. Why would the dimensional laws possibly stop me?
Actually, not only I was surprisedAdam, Maragaret, and even Harloys were all looking at Didina with astonishment. What we all had expected was that since Didina was the reincarnation of the previous Gold Elf Emperor, just the inherited memories and knowledge combined with all the time that Didina had been alive should have helped her to reach the peak already.
Elven Emperor Abolar was Abolar. I am myself. Every individual will choose a different lifestyle. I think that my personal way of living is quite fine. At the very least, all the legendary demons Ive heard about from that generation have all died already. Meanwhile, Im still living quite fine without needing to fight.
A heros reincarnation might not choose to be a hero. Maybe a wise scholars reincarnation would choose to become a butcher instead. An individual who was reincarnated would become a completely new individual. That was how it was logically supposed to be. However, I still felt like something was off about it all.
Anyone who lived in the Chaos Abyss should understand quite well that might made right regarding the law of the jungle. Succubi might be considered treasures to other species, but demons were a species that thought with their muscles. Succubi would only be a relatively useless subordinate demon species to other demons.
It was a natural instinct for all living beings to try and improve their lot in life. Serving others or borrowing power would never be a good long-term way of living. Who knew when some idiot demon would suddenly change their mind and try to kill you in order to raise their own reputation and power level? Didina didnt seem so foolish.
As long as she used the magical knowledge from her memories, it would be quite easy for her to become a powerful individual. There should be no restrictions on succubi not being able to cultivate magic skills.
I glanced over at Harloys, but she shook her head. This didnt mean that she didnt know. It meant that she knew what was going on, but didnt want me to ask about it.
I could only helplessly shrug and mentally sigh.
Ever since we met Didina, Harloys had yet to return to her cat form, and when Harloys truly became the Elven Empress, it was likely that I would no longer be able to carry my pet cat around.
No, that wont happen. You always toss your responsibilities to others, so why cant I do the same?
Its not the same. Right now, I dont have any official position. Meanwhile, youre the Elven Empress of the Elven Empire. How could you possibly just leave as you want?
Tsk, what empress? Im the only Gold Elf left. All of my subordinates will be Superior Elves. No matter what I do, Ill probably only end up as a figurehead Elven Empress. Even if Im not a puppet, Ill be nothing more than a flower vase. That will be so boring. Im just going to leave a clone of myself in the palace. Dont even think about getting rid of me.
The silly cat suddenly got closer to me. She was taller than me by two heads in her mature Gold Elf form. She was wearing the beautiful golden God Equipment crown and extravagant ceremonial clothing. Her perfectly proportioned body actually made her seem so feminine, especially with the herbal scent on her blonde hair.
Cough, Harloys, could you tell me about the most recent situation of the elves? Id like to know which elves from our generation are still alive. Perhaps some of them will be able to help out.
Harloys instantly had a bitter expression upon hearing this from Didina. Ha, saying that she was the only Gold Elf right in front of her dad? So unfilial, she deserved it!
Youre the one who deserves to be single for your entire life.
As always, I had no idea what Little Red meant with her comment. Currently, she was in her tiny red dragon form. However, her tiny dragon form had only been one meter long when she first progressed in power level, but right now she was already three meters long.
Little Red benefited from this short trip to the Chaos Abyssmore than any of us. At our power level, progressing even one step would be incredibly difficult. Although Little Red might seemingly become slightly weaker overall from returning to baby dragon form, she had basically changed her entire bloodline. This would greatly improve her overall combat potential. This was something highly difficult to achieve through cultivation.
From a certain standpoint, this was identical to how I had changed my bloodline. However, her growth would be even swifter than mine.
Yet, I was the one who had gone down to the Chaos Abyss in search of strength. Although I had slightly improved in power level, I still hadnt made much progress apart from gaining some Fate Points. I had made very little progress with my most critical four magic swords.
Tsk, even though I have some points now, I cant exchange them for blueprints or resources. System, youre so useless.
My System The Goddess of Orders powers were limited. Everything she could help me exchange for would be an exchange of equivalent value through the power of karma. They would be items that already existed, but those items would be of incredibly limited use to me who had created a brand new path.
The Holy War was about to start, yet I had only completed half of one of my planned four magic swords. I was also still far from achieving SemiGod rank. Although I might have been acting casual, I was truly anxious inside.
SemiGod wasnt only about power level. If I could reach SemiGod for this upcoming demon wave, I would be able to commonly use one of my supremely powerful aces. This would be a foundational change in me.
But if I casually tried to force my Myth-ranked weapons into SemiGod rank, not only would there be countless consequences, I would also feel quite unwilling about it.
[You truly are such an idiot. Death and ice are both powers of Chaos. Right now, you have someone in front of you whos both a veteran demon and Elven Emperor. Didina was formerly the ruler of the Elven Empire for many centuries. She was also the one who taught elemental magic to the humans. Why arent you asking her instead of me?]
Indeed, Harloys hadnt even reached adult age back when she died. Only after she became undead did she furiously start learning magic so she could obtain power. Logically speaking, she shouldnt be able to compare in magical knowledge to her father, who had millennia more of experience. But, for some reason, ever since I learned Didinas true identity, I felt quite awkward whenever I looked at her
[Besides, since youve already had that Beifeng bastard go to Sun God Aloyo to help you obtain top-quality resources, you should just rest assured and wait. Im quite confident when it comes to him]
Well, I was also quite confident in Beifengs abilities. I was even more confident that he would do something majorly overboard. He wouldnt be Beifeng if he didnt do something that was impossible to face directly.
Dont mention him. The elves Holy Lake is still in a state of pollution because of him. I dont even dare to admit that I know him. Otherwise, all elves will be trying to kill me.
The Ardell Lake area was a holy land under the control of the silver elves. In the elves myths and legends, this was where the Creator Goddess had created the first elf as the source of all elves. But now due to a certain individual doing unmentionable acts in the lake waters, the Holy Lake was polluted, affecting countless divine beasts in the area. This was also the main reason why Beifeng had been unable to stay in the mortal plane.
Right now, silver elf head priestess Cecily was having the same frustrations as Roland. She hated the legendary top-ranked Calamity Rankings Dracon more than anyone.
That damned bastard, that damned bastard, what am I supposed to say to everyone else
Currently, Cecily was riding on a unicorn. Her purepriestess attire was beautiful and extravagant. She was also in the prime of her youth, but had an embarrassed expression right now.
As the aura of Chaos became ever thicker through the dimensional cracks, the citizens of the Moonwheel Capital panicked more and more. But, today, they received some news that helped them to feel reassured.
The silver elves reinforcements had arrived to help the moon elves. Not only had the silver elves brought along large numbers of elite silver elf aerial and land knights, they also brought along a large number of nature divine beasts. These divine beasts were the pets of the Elven Gods, along with being powerful combat strength.
Deer, elephant, and bear form. These nature divine beasts typically had the physical appearances of natural wild beasts, but more beautiful and pure. They also possessed far stronger natural talents.
Typically, only the most devout of elves would be allowed to the Holy Lake to listen to the Gods blessings and witness these pure and beautiful divine beasts. When the moon elves saw these divine beasts in their own city, of course they would be overjoyed, gaining a massive morale boost.
Everywhere that the divine beasts passed by, thick patches of green grass would crop up like carpets. No matter what season it was, flowers would naturally start to bloom. The beautiful divine beasts glowed with the aura of nature. Just looking at them would make one feel reassured.
However
Mommy, why are the divine beasts tummies so big? Are they about to give birth to small divine beasts? Can I get a closer look
A young elf child was interrupted in the middle of his words by his mother who was scared witless. This was something that everyone was pretending not to see, so how could he possibly be allowed to say it out loud!
*Plop*
A certain pointy-eared head priestess with excellent hearing ended up falling off her unicorn upon hearing this
