Gorgeous Jewel
Chapter V Chapter 170

Alice had been living in the Elf country for a month. He had increased his cultivation to the late stage of the golden core realm.

Ten days he spent secluding himself in Yggdrasil.

At first he only wanted to find the truth about Elysia's identity, but after considering the sheer amount of pure energy within Yggdrasil, he had, Alice asked Sylph for permission to stabilize her dantian while increasing her cultivation to the final stage of the Golden Core.

After ten days passed, Alice came to Sylph. Then he asked about the true identity of Elysia.

Without a second thought Sylph answered Alice's question. He had no doubts about the human girl in front of him. Spirits have an interest in him, moreover he is the hero who has saved the land of elves and Yggdrasil.

Sylph gave Alice so much new knowledge. An information that would not even be found in any book or historical record.

Sylph told Alice that she had actually lived for a very long time before Erebos had even set foot on Aria.

Sylph had witnessed the changing times like an eternal firebird from the east who knew no death and would always come back to life.

Sylph may not have known Chaos, Nyx or Erebos at the time. But when Aria was created by the God Chaos and appointed Goddess Gaia as his caretaker, Yggdrasil was born from the blessing of Goddess Gaia.

The little seeds of Gaia's soul were scattered all over Aria. The Yggdrasil tree in the land of the elves was only one of them. There are still six others scattered in other continents far from the continent of Regnum or Arkham. Gaia uses Yggdrasil as a peg and purification medium.

Because Chaos created so many races in Aria, Gaia did not want any imbalance to dominate in it.

As a Spirit that grows strong from the Yggdrasil tree. Sylph was given the task of guard or dubbed the Guardian of Yggdrasil. Surely he was just one of the seven Guardians born on the other side of Yggdrasil.

The little Yggdrasil grew into a sturdy tree that soared into the sky. The energy was so pure and so numerous that beings living so far away could still benefit from that energy.

In those days, hyumans were considered the weakest race and of course until now they are still considered as such by other races. But the real reason is not because of that.

The first elf race born out of Gaia's generosity was the Silver elf. Their distinctive feature is their silver-colored hair.

Silver elves were also known as god servants. They are creatures created by Chaos who can be said to be close to the gods. Because of their perseverance and trust in the God, Gaia also gave them abundant blessings.

They were born with a special generation. Their physical strength was comparable to that of the beast race. Their mana and magic abilities were far above the demon race. They were truly a race that stood by the side of Goddess Gaia.

Unfortunately, it was because of such a far-reaching difference that they forgot their status and instead considered themselves special among the other races.

Silver elves became haughty and greedy. They seemed to want to stand on top of the peak. Forced slavery, slaughter of other races or other vile conduct. They don't care because they see other people as dirty flies.

It was one of the dark histories that made the elves now a closed race. Yes, even until now the arrogant nature of their ancestors was still embedded in their descendants.

Gaia was disappointed with their actions. The cruelty of the Silver elves continued to drag on. The Goddess was angry. The Silver instead came to their senses after getting a direct warning from Gaia, but they rebelled instead. They became more violent and tried to finish off the other races. Especially the hyuman race which was an easy target for them.

Chaos didn't say anything about it.

Gaia did not expect such a thing to happen. The gods were very concerned about their behavior. Although some of them enjoyed the show but still, to the mortal beings created by Chaos with many flaws, it disturbed their view of trying to imitate the behavior of the gods.

I could feel the energy in the sky becoming a little chaotic, Sylph said after she told the story.

The story is cut. Sylph could not break the taboo to speak of the will of the gods. Although Alice was curious about what decision the gods made, she could not force Sylph.

Sylph again continued her story about the Silver elf and Goddess Gaia.

Silver elves get the punishment and blessing of the Goddess in the unplug from them.

The purity of their descendants slowly decreased. Since then, High elves, Dwarves and other elves were born. But there was one different elf, the Dark elf. They were the only tribe to obtain the power aid from the Moon Goddess Artemis.

At first they were looked at with one eye, because the other elves thought that they were a curse or incarnation of the demon race. But as time passed, someone came between them and dismissed all the bad rumors. The relationship of the Dark elves and the other elf tribes became even more harmonious.

When the Silver elves suffered a setback. A crack occurred in the sky. Sylph thought it was a deliberate deed by the gods so she ignored it. Before he finally realized that the crack was the beginning of a catastrophe.

A few years later after the crack was seen in the sky. A stifling pitch-black energy suddenly appeared. The dark red pillar soared through the clouds. Although far away but the evil energy is so pronounced. That was the era where the Demon King Thypon was born.

Chaos swept through all of Aria.

Sylph watched the incident with both eyes.

Even the elves hiding behind the dense forest did not escape the calamity.

The warriors of every race died at his hands. Even the strong warriors of the Silver elf race did not dwell against a woman known as the right hand of Thypon.

Everything was chaotic and they were overwhelmed with despair. The impervious race withstood the cruelty of Thypon choosing to submit and be loyal under him.

Until finally a mysterious man appears who does not expect who and where his origins. The man was so strong that he could even decapitate a demon king easily.

Precisely still on the Arkham continent not far from the Drakelight Mountains where the dragons nest. It was there that the first Demon King in Aria died at the hands of the hero.

"Are you really going?" Helian asked a little frown at Elysia.

"Yes. I'll go accompany my mother."

"Can't you stay a few more days?"

Elysia was his best friend. The only person who was very close to him. She thought of him as her own sister.

Helian lost you a bit of her spirit when Elysia decided to leave the elf kingdom.

"Don't be so moody, I'll definitely visit once in a while." He gently reassured Helian.

With his current strength he might not yet be able to realize his words. That's why he will train harder to master his new abilities.

Before Alice entered her seclusion, she realized something on Elysia's technique when she summoned her scythe.

Alice repeatedly told Elysia to insert and take out her scythe. With her observant eyesight, Alice finally understood Elysia's true abilities.

"Truely said Elysia. Sooner or later he will be able to use his abilities well."

When Elysia called out her scythe, it turned out that it didn't just appear. Elysia's scythe emerged from a small dimensional gap.

When Alice examined him, she felt that ability she had seen before. It was then that Nyx suddenly informed him that it was one of Erebos' abilities.

Every god is good at short space and time transfers, but it requires a lot of energy.

As the Dark God before he finally fell and became the Evil God, Erebos was the only one who was skilled in tearing apart space and time besides Nyx. His abilities even grew stronger after he descended on Aria. Erebos can move anywhere he wants with just a little energy. Even he was still using that ability to spread chaos.

"I'd have trouble tracking him." Think Alice. "But after I entered the Immortal Realm, I could already feel the last trace of his energy. I've already determined his coordination of directions before that energy slowly dissipates."

All of Alice's senses became much sharper after she entered the Immortal Realm. His strength and sea of soul were also growing wider and sturdier.

"With my current strength, I'm sure I can deal with it. But I didn't expect there to be any other variables besides Erebos. After hearing Sylph's story, I was able to deduce that the dimensional crack was not something Erebos made alone. Sylph said that gods other than Chaos could not interfere directly in the affairs of mortal beings. Chaos had established this law when he created Aria. But based on Sylph's story, I believe that Erebos managed to create demon lords and ancient monsters as his subordinates because of the help of other powers."

After saying goodbye to Helian, Alice went to Orgon.

After getting the twig from Yggdrasil, Alice did not know what to use it for. The twig was very strong yet it also looked so fragile. He decided to take her to Orgon.

Orgon was wide-eyed at the sight of the magical thing. He had not expected to see the sacred twig of Yggdrasil before his eyes.

Orgon would not be surprised if it was just a branch falling even if it was a broken fragment from the Yggdrasil tree. Because when Yggdrasil dropped his twig, it was not much different from an ordinary tree branch. But what Alice brought was something different. Indeed the twig in Alice's hand looks broken, but the Mana in it is so much and that's what makes it so strong.

Orgon might be able to fuse it into materials to make weapons even though it would take a long time. But he needed a suitable metal ore to fuse the energy from the twig.

Alice took out Lin Zhou Yun's sword and made the Orgon's doubts disappear. Orgon happily accepted Alice's request. It took him almost a month to complete his masterpiece.

The long sword with the blade was quite thin and small, unlike other long swords. The color is so clear and will shine under the moon. As Alice swung it, she could feel the harmony that the sword was as if it was made for her. The silver-colored handle also looked beautiful. The sword was like recognizing Alice as its owner and vice versa.

Orgon was kind enough to let Alice name the sword.

Alice was silent for a moment, she remembered the beautiful moon reflected in the lake in her palace. The lake carried fond memories between him and his disciple. A warm place despite the cold air.

"I named it...The Moonlight Sword."
