Chapter 21 - 21. The Seal Of The Elven Race
Chapter 21 – 21. The Seal Of The Elven Race
Suddenly the ball of light landed right in front of Elder Huang Bao, then turned into a handsome young man.
The young man immediately approached Elder Bao and Elder Chen with a happy smile.
"Uncle, little uncle, have you come to take me away? I'm bored here," he said childishly, very different from his age which seemed to have grown up.
Elder Chen who saw the young man in front of him acting strangely knit his brows in confusion. As far as he knew, every time he entered Zolyrous, he never felt anyone's presence, let alone that young man, from the very beginning this place was only filled with books and magic items without a single living being living in it. Then, where did this young man come from?
"Who are you? Why are you able to be in this place?" asked Elder Chen, his mind really couldn't find an answer, because the only key to entering Zolyrous after Queen Yu Yi died was only himself.
"I don't know, but from the start, I was already here uncle … will you take me out with you?" said the young man again with an expression like a child whining for candy.
"Wait, wait a minute indeed from the beginning you were here then why didn't I feel your presence? You don't dare trick me. This place belongs to the magician race. The only person who has the right to enter and exit this place is her, Queen Yu Yi. Zolyrous' creator. "
'Queen Yu Yi? Is that the same person as the information the book provides? Ahh, mother, I want to see you've thought the young man, he returned to remember the time when he suddenly got his form and was free from the Crystal Shell that had kept him locked up. an ancient book then gave him information about anything he wanted to know.
Just hearing the name Yu Yi made his heart feel warm.
"Uncle, I don't know whether you believe in this or not. But look at the crystal shell over there my soul that shouldn't have been born into this world was cooped up there for hundreds of hundred years, only the Mana that came from this room helped me grow, like a baby growing up. I don't know what caused my soul to suddenly be freed from that thing a few days ago." said the young man, pointing his finger at the object he meant.
*(Mana or energy, which can also be interpreted as life energy in this story).
"Every time uncle entered this place, I saw everything from inside there and without realizing it," he added.
Hearing that, Elder Chen immediately approached the Crystal Shell that the young man was referring to. The size is quite large, the height of the shell reaches half the body of an adult, with red filling the surface, several magic runes are interconnected from each side of the shell. He thought he had seen the rune, but where?
Elder Chen tried to remember as he continued to scrutinize every inch of the crystal shell.
"IMPOSSIBLE!" he was shocked by himself with his memory that suddenly appeared.
According to the stories of the ancestors, it is said that thousands of years ago, this world was not only inhabited by 8 races (Vampire, Werewolf, Fairy, Wizard, Neptune, Human, Lucifer, Demon) races.
Long before he was born into this world, there was one more race that called themselves the Elf (Healer) race. They have extraordinary healing abilities. At first glance, the Elf race is very similar to the physical body of the Fairy race, but they are also imbued with healing magic power. What distinguishes them from other races is that the Elf race does not have the power to attack, so to maintain the existence of their race is very difficult if only relying on their healing magic. And finally, they became extinct.
The only thing left of them were mixed blood, elves, and demons and now there was only one person left. He was one of Lord Gu's loyal bodyguards, Guards Bai Mo.
Tried to take a detailed look at the runes that filled the crystal shell and then made him completely sure.
"That's right, this is the Soul-Spirit Rune, the special ability of extinct Elves race," he muttered.
The Soul-Spirit Rune consists of two runes, namely the Soul Devine Rune and the Soul Growth Rune. The rune runes could only function if the two were used at the same time.
Soul Devine Rune is a magic rune that can seal a person's soul into an object. Meanwhile, Soul Growth Rune is advanced magic from the Soul Devine Rune, it can awaken a soul that was previously sealed to be reborn into a real form. and according to the story, Soul-Spirit Rune magic can only be performed if the sealer is willing to sacrifice his soul.
Elder Chen did not expect to see the real form of the Soul-Spirit Rune firsthand, so far he only knew from the pictorial stories passed down from generation to generation.
Now he understands why he could not have realized the young man's existence before. Even though he had understood one thing, another question popped up in his head again.
'Since when was this child sealed in this place? Who is he? Why was the Elf race willing to sacrifice their lives just for him? Whereas the Elf race itself was extinct long before this Zolyrous existed, 'Elder Chen's thoughts overlapped as he sank into a frenzy.
Elder Chen and the young man were still standing in front of the crystal shell, they did not pay attention to the change in expression on Elder Huang Bao's face which was getting increasingly pale. Stunned watching the young man standing beside Elder Chen. Standing still as if he was seeing a ghost.
"Uncle, are you okay?" asked the young man noticing the existence of Elder Bao, who had not moved the slightest.
Seeing the young man approaching him, Elder Huang Bao immediately normalized his expression.
"What is your relationship with Lord Gu?" asked Elder Bao
The young man stopped his steps, his eyebrows raised in confusion because it was his first time hearing that name.
While Elder Chen who heard Elder Huang Bao's voice immediately turned around and approached the two of them.
However, when he took only two steps, reality hit him. Due to the shock of the boy's sudden appearance earlier, he completely ignored the young man's appearance.
"That face, very much like Lord Gu.
