Will of chaos

We all sat at the table while Fairies brought fruit to place on the table before walking away laughing.

“You are already famous Holy Blood Son.” (King Heston)

“Please, no titles or formality, just call me Zenos.” (I)

“It would be better to do this for everyone if possible.” (Vanessa)

“Hahahaha… this is perfect for me, so call me Heston.” (King Heston)

“He also never liked formalities, whenever he has to meet people of high status he talks nonsense.” (Hest)

“It’s not my fault that people don’t like honesty.” (King Heston)

“You crushed a King’s head in a diplomatic meeting requested by the Gray Elves.” (Hest)

“Nobody had warned me about the experiments done on Elves that were done in that place, when he started talking proudly about it…” (King Heston)

“Let’s just say I was very kind in crushing just his head.” (King Heston)

“He reminds me of you, Zenos.” (Diana)

“The conversation always goes astray…” (Sakura)

“Old people like to reminisce about the past.” (Margareth)

“Let’s get back to the point, as I was saying, you became famous.” (King Heston)

“I think I can guess a few things.” (I)

“You saved one of my sisters, plus you brought back a race that didn’t exist in this world millions of years ago.” (Hest)

“Yes, just being around an Ancient Elf reminds me of the feel of that big tree.” (King Heston)

“Your name has become famous too, Freya.” (King Heston)

“All I do is follow my master’s wishes.” (Freya)

“Don’t lie, I always agree with the things you want to do.” (I)

It seems that what we have been doing has been communicated to everyone, I imagine this information is being shared by the World Trees so that their villages are ready for us to receive.

“I think they know why we’re here.” (I)

“Yes, I appreciate young Freya’s help in raising the race numbers of our ancestors.” (King Heston)

“There are some in this village ready for it.” (Hest)

“You must know the requirements for this, are you saying that more people besides King Heston have met the requirements?” (I)

“I can imagine the reason for your doubts considering the continents you’ve passed through so far.” (King Heston)

“But this continent has much more Elemental energy around it, that makes everything stronger, be it the land, trees or the space itself that surrounds us.” (King Heston)

“This means that these elements affect people the most, those with Affinities with all Elements are very rare, but still some appear every 400 or 600 years, for those of us who have a long lifespan and live near a World Tree, we managed to gather around 38 people who, in addition to me, meet the requirements.” (King Heston)

“If we had Ancient Elves, my sister on the Dark Continent would never have been in such danger.” (Hest)

“Our chosen among the Elves can channel some of our power, but they cannot control that power with the necessary finesse and precision that is sometimes necessary.” (Hest)

“I’ll love to help everyone, but their character…” (Freya)

“Are you sure all these people deserve this?” (I)

“Since we first heard news from the Morror Continent about you, we started the selection process, I’m sure the same goes for the other villages.” (King Heston)

“I imagine not everyone was happy.” (I) 𝚋𝚎𝚍𝚗ｏ𝚟𝚎𝚕.ｏｒｇ

“One of them tried to rebel, two others escaped the village and we suspect they were up to something.” (King Heston)

“I would appreciate it if you could give us information about these people.” (I)

“We don’t want to be attacked by strangers.” (Diana)

“They don’t know anything about you, but your request is reasonable, I’ll sort that information out to you tonight.” (King Heston)

I hadn’t imagined that people other than Elf Kings and Elf Queens would become Ancient Elves, but his explanation makes sense.

I’m glad they made a selection in advance, the potential of an Ancient Elf is very great, I don’t want to imagine bad people getting their hands on such power.

I know that sooner or later someone bad will appear among the Old Elves, expecting a completely good and kind race like Freya is unrealistic, but the later the better.

“There’s something else I’d like to talk to you about.” (I)

“You can ask for whatever you want, as long as it’s within our reach we can do something about it.” (King Heston)

“I have a favor to ask.” (I)

“I would like to evolve here, near the World Tree.” (I)

King Heston and the spirit of the World Tree looked at me, their gaze seemed able to see right through me, I felt completely naked in front of their eyes.

“So you’re using the technique to create a temporary growth barrier?” (King Heston)

“I understand.” (Hest)

“Your body and Soul are still not fully synchronized, something all Outsiders go through to a greater or lesser degree upon rebirth.” (Hest)

“This normally fixes itself when evolving, but your case was a little different, but why?” (Hest)

The World Tree Spirit eyed me doubtfully as if I was some kind of puzzle she wanted to know the answer to.

“I imagine there is some reason behind this request, is this something that would put someone in this village at risk?” (King Heston)

“No, that’s just going to cause some commotion if the worst happens.” (Vanessa)

“You should already know about the Dungeon I have, I will evolve inside the Dungeon, but each evolution of mine causes an explosion of my Aura and power in the surroundings.” (I)

“So far this has been restricted by the Dungeon, but I’m afraid this time will be different.” (I)

“Your power will certainly draw attention.” (Nix)

“The power of chaos… I see.” (Hest)

“Anything to worry about?” (King Heston)

“No, if such a thing really happened, I would be able to suppress such commotion so that no one would notice.” (Hest)

“Exactly what I expected, thanks.” (I)

“If Hest accepted, then this matter is settled.” (King Heston)

———

After that we spent a few hours talking about how to organize the transformation of the Old Elves, it was decided that Freya would only help the Dark Elf King and he would take care of the others with enough time.

I was also asked to wait a few more days for my evolution since a guest was arriving, they don’t know if he would be an enemy and they want to discuss the matter regarding the wounds of the Dark Elf King.

But the one who was coming was someone I also wanted to meet if possible.
