"Supre Elder! What are your plans for the tribe? Please do not keep us in the dark. We heard that we will be moving to the holand of our Savior!"
An elf shouted from amongst the crowd after quickly discovering the Supre Elder flying to the surface from the subterranean space.
"Yes, Supre Elder! Please tell us your plans! What will we do from here?"
"What is happening outside the Great Forest, Supre Elder? Please tell us!"
The crowd quickly joined in voicing their doubts and worries.
At the sa ti, Princess Thessalia led her personal guards and elven warriors from the Great Forest Outskirts and returned to the southern edge of the tribe.
Furthermore, tribesn from the other parts of Elvengarde had gathered towards the southern area to investigate the commotion.
At that mont, at least 200-thousand pair of elven eyes stared at the Supre Elder hovering in the skies with question looks while the Supre Elder gazed back at them.
"The Savior?"
Supre Elder Haldir was quickly confused by so of their words.
After a short mont, he understood their aning and chuckled, "Hahaha! That's right, the entire tribe will be moving into the holand of the Savior!"
The Supre Elder's loud words spread far and wide. All the distant elves in the region heard him audibly.
At the sa ti, Leon was stunned after hearing the Supre Elder's words on his way up with Aria in his arms.
"The Savior is here!"
"Thank you for saving my life, Savior!"
Upon Leon's appearance, the elves erupted into booming cheers while the others took the chance to express their gratitude.
"The coming days of the Cataclysm is upon us! The Great Forest has kept us safe for hundreds of years, but for longer, it shall not! The coming Cataclysm is like nothing like the past! There will be great chaos! There will be great danger! Naturally, there will be death! Only the Savior's holand can keep us safe!"
Leon smiled wryly, thinking the Supre Elder Haldir was turning him into so mascot for the tribe or sothing.
Even so, Leon did not interrupt the Supre Elder and continued to listen quietly.
"That is why we must move there! The lands beyond the forest have already beco infested by a rat tide, turning it into a place of death! Once the forest fire dies out, the vermin will swarm our tribe! Ti is of the essence! We must be quick to move out!"
Once the Supre Elder said this, the unrest within the tribe was to be expected. Many elves panicked and tried to move but failed to do so due to the densely packed crowd, causing great disturbance.
Many wonder how they could leave if the outside has beco a land of death due to the swarming rat tide.
"But fret not! There is a way for us to make it past the rat tide! More importantly, we have the Savior with us! Even so, it would not be easy—not unless we stay united and work together orderly!"
"Ou!"
The crowd roared with raised fists in response, understanding the importance of the Supre Elder's ssage.
At the sa ti, Leon's cheeks twitched profusely from the cringes, causing Aria to giggle quietly in his arms.
Her mischievous giggles caused Leon to squeeze her supple rear.
"Ah!"
Aria exclaid with surprise before throwing Leon a dirty look—only to see him respond back with a smirk. She smacked him lightly on the chest with a pout.
Unaware of their actions, Supre Elder Haldir continued to speak to the crowd, "Go now! Pack your valuables! Take only what you can bring! But do it orderly! Do not push your fellow tribes, or there will be severe consequences! We gather in the west of Elvengarde!"
Shortly after receiving the Supre Elder's warning, the crowd began to disperse obediently. Only the ones t with misfortunes in the southern area remained behind with concerns.
Many of them had lost their hos to the crevices and fractures that appeared. Anything of value that they owned would have already fallen down to the subterranean space.
"You all do not need to worry. Your living expenses will be covered by until you are all able to settle down in the Crawford Kingdom." Leon said to the crowd.
"Thank you, Savior!"
The remaining crowd quickly cheered.
Shortly after, Princess Thessalia approached with her people from below and asked, "What orders do you have for my warriors and I, Supre Elder?"
Supre Elder Haldir did not answer but looked towards Leon.
Leon shortly nodded and said, "Princess Thessalia, please round up all the able warriors in the tribe and gather at the foot of the Elder Tree. In the short ti that we have, they must all learn how to fly."
"I will supervise their training, of course." Supre Elder Haldir added.
Although Princess Thessalia was rather disgruntled that Leon was giving her orders, she still nodded, "Understood."
However, she only gave the orders to her personal guards and did not leave personally.
She had yet to understand the events that transpired in the area. After a brief inquiry, she quickly understood everything from the Supre Elder's words.
"I see… So, it turned out like that." Princess Thessalia said with a hint of sorrow, anticipating as much.
Seeing as the Supre Elder had yet to execute her father, she requested, "Where is my father? I would like to see him one last ti."
"He is right over—" The Supre Elder's hand suddenly froze.
The direction he pointed was empty. Only now did he realized the Elf King was not bound where he should be.
Did King Erendriel escape?
However, Leon communicated with the Guardian Spirit and the broccoli—Ahem, the Elf King's body was brought over via the Elder Tree's roots.
Everyone was quickly appalled.
"What happened?" Princess Thessalia inquired, hiding the grief and anger in her heart. She did not believe that the Supre Elder would just lie to her.
Supre Elder Haldir frowned and said, "Did the Guardian Spirit do this?"
The Guardian Spirit imdiately rumbled in discontent,
After Leon communicated with the Guardian Spirit with his divine sense, he nodded understandingly and stated, "The Guardian Spirit has nothing to do with the Elf King's condition."
"Then… it must be the backlash from that secret ability to transform Wood Energy into physical strength." Supre Elder Haldir shortly guessed.
"It seems the ability to forcefully push one's combat prowess to the next stage of cultivation is not without its side effects. However, this sort of price is too great…" Leon comnted with a frown.
He sent out his divine sense to study the Elf King's transmogrified body before he was quickly startled by his discovery.
'There's actually so much Demonic Energy inside the Elf King's body? How did this person not beco berserk?' Leon's eyes flickered.
No other expression was shown on the surface as he pondered deeply.
At the sa ti, Princess Thessalia was confused. She never heard of her father having such a secret ability.
"Secret ability? My father did?" She asked.
Supre Elder Haldir nodded.
Princess Thessalia furrowed her brows deeply in response before she suddenly thought of soone and began looking around.
After failing to locate the person, Princess Thessalia quickly asked, "Where is my little sister?"
