Chapter 539 The Remains of the World Tree.
Elf Kingdom.
Every inch of land is covered with green flowers and plants, and every breath of air is filled with the fragrance of trees.
The houses here are integrated with nature, as if they are an extension of the earth.
The elves are outstanding in appearance. They walk gracefully on the streets, complementing the surrounding scenery.
However, the most eye-catching thing in this country is the huge dead wood pile.
It stands in the center of the country, covering an area of tens of thousands of square meters, like an ancient monument, witnessing the historical changes of the Elf Kingdom.
That is the remains of the World Tree. It used to be lush and leafy, and it was the source of life for the elves.
Even, rumors.
That is the origin of the elves.
The elves were born in the World Tree.
It was the World Tree that created the elves.
And their mission as elves is to protect the World Tree.
Victoria stared at the remains of the World Tree with a trace of sadness in her eyes.
Suddenly, she found that there was a sapling growing on the dead wood pile!
It is small and tough, and exudes a green breath, which is the power of life!
Victoria was shocked, she couldn't believe her eyes.
She rubbed her eyes and looked again, the sapling was still there, full of vitality.
Could it be that the World Tree is really going to revive?
Victoria looked at the Elf Princess, trying to understand the situation, but found that the Elf Princess was also looking at him. The two of them met eyes, and it seemed that she knew what Victoria wanted to ask, and she smiled meaningfully and asked to change the subject:
"When you become an adult, you still have to bathe in holy water and complete the adult ceremony!"
The adult here refers to breaking through from the growth period to the mature period.
And Victoria broke through to the mature period outside, so naturally she hasn't bathed in holy water yet.
But——
"I have completed the adult ceremony!"
Victoria's exquisite and beautiful face showed a trace of seriousness, and she looked at the Elf Princess.
"Oh"
The Elf Princess seemed to think of something and chuckled.
"Yes! Mother has already completed the coming-of-age ceremony for you in advance."
"But no matter who it is, after adulthood, you must bathe in holy water, even you are no exception."
With that, without waiting for Victoria to object, the Elf Princess looked at Xilaiya and ordered:
"Take her to the priest and baptize her in holy water."
"Yes!"
Xilaiya nodded, looked at Victoria, showed a respectful and friendly attitude, stretched out her hand, and smiled:
"Then, Your Highness Victoria, please"
"Don't call me Your Highness"
No!
"Okay, Your Highness Victoria"
Xilaiya led the way in front.
"I've said it, don't call me Your Highness"
"Okay, Your Highness"
Victoria frowned, and seeing that her words were fruitless, she was too lazy to correct it.
In fact, she didn't dislike bathing in holy water.
Even in their elf clan, bathing in holy water can be said to be the supreme honor.
Many underage elves would imagine the scene of bathing in holy water.
There are also many elves who regret that they have not been able to bathe in holy water.
After all, not all elves can break through the mature stage.
Even.
Victoria observed the elves passing by from time to time.
She was surprised to find that they had not changed.
This is understandable. After all, the world of a few years is just a dream and a blink of an eye for the long-lived elves.
This is the case here.
Life has remained unchanged for decades.
And the reason why she left the Elf Kingdom is -
What?
Why did she leave the Elf Kingdom?
Victoria only realized now that her memory seemed to be leaking.
No!
It's not a leak, it's missing.
Childhood memories are still there, but what about the rest -
No!
That's not right!
Her memory cannot be missing.
Her memory can only be sealed.
The only one who can do this is -
Victoria turned around abruptly and looked at the Elf Princess behind her.
"What did you do to me?"
The Elf Princess showed that sweet smile, as if she had expected her to ask this question.
"You"
Victoria's eyes trembled, her voice stopped abruptly, and she stood there in a daze.
The Elf Princess' body cracked, and pieces of skin disintegrated, turning into thumb-sized butterflies.
The wings of those butterflies all had complex patterns, exuding a mysterious atmosphere.
"Shh, you will know"
The Elf Princess put her slender fingers between her red lips, with a sweet smile on her face.
"Now, it's your turn to bathe in holy water"
After the words fell, the Elf Princess' whole body turned into a group of butterflies and flew around.
In a few seconds, they flew away without a trace.
"This is"
Victoria was slightly startled and turned to look at Xilaiya beside her.
Xilaiya laughed and explained:
"That was the princess's avatar just now"
"From beginning to end, the princess never left the Elf Kingdom"
Speaking of this, Xilaiya's eyes darkened, but soon returned to normal, and she smiled and joked:
"Your Highness Victoria, you don't think that the princess's strength is just like that!"
"If you think so, you will suffer a great loss in the king's selection!"
"After all, the princess is recognized as the Elf King and the first elf"
"Hehe"
Victoria lowered her eyes and chuckled.
"It seems that I have a lot of ways to go."
"What's wrong?"
Xilaya looked at Victoria with interest.
I don't know why Her Royal Highness takes it so seriously.
"Are you going to give up?"
"No!"
Victoria shook her head gently.
"I have never thought of giving up since I stepped into this place"
"Really! But you still have a chance of winning"
Xilaya looked away from Victoria and looked into the distance.
"Just let your little foodie come over"
"No"
Victoria shook her head, "This is my battlefield, and Yan'er's battlefield is not here"
"Really"
Xilaya nodded as if it was a matter of fact.
"What about you?"
Victoria asked back.
"What?" Xilaiya was puzzled.
"Who do you support?"
Hearing Victoria's words, Xilaiya was stunned, and then laughed.
"Hahahaha!"
"Why would you ask such a stupid question? Of course I support Her Royal Highness"
"Really"
Victoria's ruby-like eyes stared at Xilaiya, and her pretty face was full of disbelief.
"Oh"
Seeing Victoria's eyes, Xilaiya stopped laughing and began to pay attention to the little guy in front of her.
"Why do you think I won't support Her Highness?"
"Your eyes are telling me"
Victoria didn't seem to avoid Xilaiya's aggressive eyes.
"Oh, really!"
Xilaiya's face gradually became serious.
"Then you look at the elves' eyes, they are pretty good"
"Besides Her Highness, I'm the second one to discover it"
"Does Her Highness know?"
Victoria looked at Xilaiya suspiciously.
That look seemed to be saying, why are you still here. (End of this chapter)
