Will of chaos

After some delicious food and a beer that looks like it was mixed with some kind of honey, we headed to the house Nolan said was ready to move in.

Lawrence informed us that the Elves might take a few days to arrive and I spent that time studying magic and training various techniques.

After a 5 days of wait a Wind Fairy comes to warn us that the Elves have arrived, Louren?o leaves to meet them first and decide where the meeting will be, I told him to call them to this house as it would be easier to talk here.

In the afternoon of the same day, a White Elf arrived at the mansion where we are living together with Louren?o and 3 other Dark Elves with light armor.

Freya opens the door for them, the 3 Dark Elf guards scrutinize Freya from top to bottom while Lawrence just waves at her, but the White Elf who felt stronger than her guards looked at Freya in surprise before dropping to her knees.

Seeing the confused expressions of the guards and Louren?o was funny, but I saw Freya having a hard time getting this Elf to get up and follow her to the room where I was watching everything through the window.

“Master, these are the Elder of the council of the Elves of the village of Poison Forest, his 3 guards, and the lord Louren?o who accompanied us here.” (Freya)

“Thank you, Freya.” (I)

“Let me introduce myself, my name is Zenos, nice to meet you.” (I)

“My name is Joseph, I am one of the Elders of the Poison Forest village, I speak on behalf of our entire village when I say that it is our pleasure to welcome you.” (Joseph)

Elder Joseph is his guards as well as Lawrence, they all have forehead jewels showing they are High Elves, I also noticed the silver Toad-shaped Spirit on top of one of Joseph’s shoulders.

“(A Moon Spirit, that must be how he saw through Freya’s disguise.)” (I)

“Freya bring some appetizers while she invites our guests to be seated.” (I)

“Yes Master.” (Freya)

“Please sit down.” (I) 𝒃𝒆𝒅𝙣𝒐𝒗𝙚𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝒎

I lead everyone to a couch, but only Joseph sits down, his 3 guards stand behind him while Louren?o stands next to the couch.

“How far do you know the reason for my visit?” (I)

“I know everything, our Queen may be long dead, but she left a worthy successor behind who conveys to us the words of the World Tree.” (Joseph)

“So you must already know the reason for this meeting here instead of in your village, right?” (I)

“Yes, all the Elders have been informed and we have already started the process of warning various Realms about the disaster we are about to cause.” (Joseph)

“Did you tell me about why I’m here?” (I)

“We don’t say anything about it, we just say that we’re going to solve the World Tree problem, now if they understand that we’re going to cure the World Tree it’s because of their own thoughts.” (Joseph)

In other words, they distorted the truth to make others think that the World Tree can still be healed so that no one would think that there is a seed and that someone was coming to deliver that seed.

“You may not know it, but what happens will affect the entire continent.” (Joseph)

“Like this?” (I)

“You must have been informed about the Monster Wave that is going to happen during planting time, right.” (Joseph)

“Here’s the appetizers and drinks.” (Freya)

“Thank you Freya, sit next to me.” (I)

“Keep going sir Joseph.” (I)

“This wave of monsters will affect the entire continent, the biggest focus will be on the Poison Forest, but it will affect the entire continent to a lesser and lesser degree as you move away from the Poison Forest.” (Joseph)

“Is it going to be that big? So a lot of people are going to get hurt, right?” (I)

“Unfortunately yes, many must die just like during Annual Monster Waves, but in numbers, they come smaller as the worst will happen around here.” (Joseph)

“(I should have suspected it wouldn’t be an ordinary Monster Wave.)” (I)

I didn’t like knowing that I would cause people to die simply by planting a tree, I knew that many people would get hurt and some might even die, but now the scale is much bigger than I expected.

“Master, it’s no use thinking about the people who will be injured or killed, what you’re doing will save this continent, besides all the preparations to reduce the number of dead are already being made, correct sir Joseph?” (Freya)

“Correct, Elder Elf lady.” (Joseph)

“Unfortunately, bone is not something we can avoid, the information that our current Queen gave us says that the disturbance of energies caused all this, to control all that amount of energy from nature would need at least a Demigod or another World Tree.” (Joseph)

“Another World Tree…” (I)

Pov Goddess Selene:

I was in the Tombstone Kingdom again, I came here for a reason.

“You found out faster than expected.” (I)

“You know not to interfere with the souls of Mortals, Selene.” (Kalistos)

“I just tweaked your appearance, I didn’t do anything else.” (I)

“You know there could have been a big problem if you hadn’t.” (I)

“You just delayed the problem and you know it, it’s possibly going to be even worse now.” (Kalistos)

“But he’ll be more prepared by then.” (I)

I still remember the day he left, I was there, and I saw it with my own eyes, Zenos looks so much like him, but at the same time, he is so different.

“I’ll let it go this time, after all, you also have authority in death, but avoid interfering in such a blatant way, even though it’s your son it will draw attention from others.” (Kalistos)

“Apparently it caught your attention.” (I)

“Yes, he might be the way for me to get a Champion or at least a Hero.” (Kalistos)

“Your Sister already has both, for her who has so many worshipers it’s much easier to choose.” (I)

“By the way, you’re not going to interfere with my other daughter, are you?” (I)

“Let her and her maid do what they want, I want to stay away from any of your daughters, they are all always a headache.” (Kalistos)

“I know, I wonder how they ended up this way.” (I)

Sigh

“…” (Kalistos)

Kalistos appears at my side, she always comes here just like me, she is the oldest of all the Gods and knows everything about me.

“You know your son isn’t him, right?” (Kalistos)

“I know…” (I)

“He chose the path of sacrifice, it helped many, but it made him have a miserable life until the end, my son, on the other hand, chose to create a path of free form, I can’t even imagine what there will be at the end of a path like that.” (I)

“Why did you name him Tabu?” (Kalistos)

“That was the only name that popped into my head, when he arrived the emotions buried inside me started to rise, maybe it was a mistake, but I still think he deserves that name that once shocked everyone.” (I)

“The will of Chaos within him has changed.” (Kalistos)

“I know, now it’s part of him, became what he is…” (I)

“You’re the same crazy as always.” (Kalistos)

“That to me is a compliment.” (I)
