“I woke up immediately afterward, though I wasn’t actually able to move my body just yet,” Sienna said as she described what had happened to her after Raizakia was killed.

Once her soul had left the dimensional rift, it returned to her body that was sealed within the World Tree.

It was all because of Raizakia’s poison that Sienna had been sealed away for the past two hundred years. That poison hadn’t just affected Sienna but had invaded all the elves who had stood in Raizakia’s way at that time.

But the World Tree wasn’t simply the largest and oldest Fairy Tree. The World Tree was a sacred tree that had existed long before the race of elves had even been born into this world. That was why the elves regarded the World Tree as the center of their religion. Whether it was their deceased ancestors or their own future deceased selves, all elves believed their souls would be guided to the World Tree after dying to safeguard their race.

It was unknown whether this was truly the case, but it was an indisputable fact that the World Tree was able to perform miracles similar to those of the God of Light.

“You might have experienced this as well, but such a miracle was only able to be performed by working through the spirits dwelling within the World Tree,” Sienna revealed.

Controlling those spirits with summoning magic was impossible. This meant that such miracles couldn’t be performed at will like they could be with divine magic.

Sienna continued, “The elves and I could survive for those two hundred years because the Spirits of the World Tree were actively neutralizing the poison in our bodies. However, with Raizakia dead, that annoying poison completely vanished.”

Thanks to that, Sienna and the elves regained consciousness, but it was still impossible for them to start moving on their own right away. Sienna needed to restore her broken body, and she also needed to arrange meetings with the elves who were waking up in ones and twos.

“The power of the World Tree has been greatly weakened because it had to do so many things in these two hundred years. It must have consumed a lot of power by just lending me the strength needed to drive away Raizakia while protecting both me and the other elves, but then it needed to send my soul to your side and even bring you back from the brink of death,” Sienna reminded Eugene.

The elves, who had now awoken from being sealed, had decided to concentrate on taking care of the World Tree for the time being.

Located somewhere in the depths of the Samar Rainforest, it seemed that the elven territory would continue to reject any visitations from outsiders, just as it had been doing so far.

“There are also quite a lot of elves in the Lionheart estate,” Eugene informed her.
