Vampire Summoner's Rebirth: Summoning The Vampire Queen At The Start Chapter 1410 1410: Yggdrasil's Gratitude
-----
"Worry not, my child. I am not troubled at all by their manners. Never did I care about such formalities to begin with. Now lift your head and face , you're my precious child, not a servant."
"A-Ah…"
Elfriedden felt flustered as he lifted his head, facing Yggdrasil herself, as tears poured from his eyes.
"I never thought you would be revived, Mother Yggdrasil… I am so happy to finally be able to speak with you, and gaze upon your beauty."
"I never imagined I would be practically revived either, my dear son, but here we are. It could have never been possible without their help."
She looked at us with a gentle smile.
"Thank you for what you've done… from defeating Mammon who was pretending to be the King of Elves, to saving the last Elves from their terrible fates, and even vanquishing Fafnir, a monster whose power went beyond anything I ever faced, and of course… thank you for reviving . Your heroic act of kindness has shown that this world, despite the crisis it is facing, still has hope. You're all Legendary Heroes at this very mont, and we, the people of this continent, will forever be grateful to you, and all your descendants and your families."
My friends gasped in disbelief, no one could even say a word as they were amazed, shocked by her divine presence beyond asure. Yggdrasil was not only bright looking, but her power was the real deal. She was definitely stronger than my friends, although she was never stronger than Fafnir, hence her defeat, and as a result, she's not stronger than either…
But I shouldn't be really thinking about that.
"Thank you for your kind words," I said, smiling. "I hope we can count on you as an ally from now on. The world is still in peril. Although this continent might be safe for now, the demons continue their large-scale invasion at the north of the central continent."
"I am well aware of this world's peril…" Yggdrasil closed her eyes and nodded. "You will naturally have all my support, but it will take so ti for to fully regain my strength… However, I will continue purifying this continent and once it's fully healed, I might regain it all or perhaps beco even stronger. You didn't just revive ; you gave new power entirely. rging with the wood of that girl, Erika was her na? Has completely rejuvenated my entire wooden structure, my roots and even my sap is now overflowing with youth."
"Y-Yes, I am Erika…" Erika nodded. "Well, I am honored I could be of help… Heheh…" She giggled nervously.
"I see you're all nervous, please don't be, we are speaking as equals now. I will be forever in your debt," Yggdrasil smiled motherly. "If there is anything you would want to ask , go ahead. I will do everything in my power to help." Sourced directly from MV6LEMP6YR.
"Then…" I spoke first. "Could you help speak with the elves, tell them of our victory, your revival, and also about the territory I will be taking? Also, probably tell them that the surviving lizardn shouldn't be octracized, they'll be under my wing now."
"B-Blake! Can't you speak a bit less formal with her?! She's a goddess!" Elfriedden panicked as he heard speaking so directly, as if ordering her. "And what do you an with the surviving lizardn?! We should quickly get rid of all of them!"
But…
"Of course, I have no problems with that," she nodded, glancing at Elfriedden. "My child, I know your resentnt against the lizardn runs deep, but their leader is dead, and most of their population is gone. Those that survived were mostly mothers and children, or whatever eggs were left. Those that sought chaos, killed and destroyed are now gone. Lizardn are smart like humans, but their minds are easier to influence and manipulate as they grow much faster than us, and therefore, gather less wisdom and experience in life before reaching adulthood. They need soone to guide them into a new path."
"W-Wha…?! But Goddess Yggdrasil, the lizardn were the ones that almost killed you, and killed everyone…! Every single one of them should-"
"That's enough."
"Eh?!"
Elfriedden felt an imnse pressure over his entire body, it was from her.
"You will not bring your hatred into my palace. Lizardn as a race are pure as humans and elves, individuals or groups do not define an entire species. Everyone in this world is born innocent and free of sins. I value all life, and lizardn, just like elves, were born in these lands since the most ancient tis. I rember their tribes taking care of before Fafnir was born. They loved nature, and even lived alongside your kind… but such ancient tis are probably now forgotten, aren't they? Please, for , have patience. And believe in them."
"…"
Elfriedden remained in silence for a mont, contemplating what he just heard, before nodding and standing up once more.
"Yes… I understand Mother Yggdrasil. I will… trust your words, as our divinity, mother, and guardian. It is true that lizardn were once our friends… I rember reading about that, hearing from Rosen… perhaps resentnt has clouded my mind."
He really changed quickly, huh? Maybe I should use Yggdrasil to convince him of sothing every ti he starts acting stubborn or begins to complain annoyingly.
"Now, before you depart, I must tell you sothing…" sighed Yggdrasil, glancing at… Eric? "Could you please co to my side, you?"
"M-?" Eric looked around. "W-Why ?"
"You might not know this, but you're related to Fafnir, son," Yggdrasil said. "I can feel it within your blood."
"To Fafnir?!" Eric gasped. " of all people?! W-What?!"
Eric didn't even know what to say or even how to react…
But yes, she's not wrong.
I rember sothing I read, a book by Eric from his ancestor, from an expedition to this continent.
An expedition where he visited Yggdrasil, the elves, and even the lizardn tribe protecting the great tree hundreds of years ago.
