Chapter 124 – Taming Dark Elves
Alb Great Forest
If the west of the continent is the domain of humans and the south is the domain of beastmen, the eastern part of the continent is the domain of elves, the Great Alb Forest. Humans assume that elves have taken root there since the time when they were the ancestors of their distant ancestors, but humans have no clear memory of their own history. Could it be
However, considering the age of the giant trees you see as soon as you enter the Great Forest area, it might not be impossible at all. If you see trees whose roots protrude beyond the ground, each of which is taller than the trunk of a single human, humans will just think that the history of the elves must be the same as these trees.
But who among humans knows? The elves know that these trees have existed since the beginning of time, growing as seedlings.
Humans have only heard the name, but no one knows the reality, but to elves, there is a mother tree, the mother of all forests, a great tree called the beginning of elves, and a world tree. It is a huge and sacred tree that is so large and sacred that it is sinful to compare it with the word big, and it is the spiritual support and god of the elves.
How can a mere tree be considered a god?
In the beginning of the age when everything on earth was beginning to be born, when the World Tree was still a young tree that had just taken root in this land, the World Tree created beings to support it, and the leaves that fell from the branches of the World Tree were white. Albro, the roots protruding from the ground became black albs and took turns supporting the young world tree day and night.
It is a passage from the Genesis myth of the elves.
Even the elves, who live farther than humans, do not know when the world tree began. That’s why they worship this sacred tree as a god.
Whether it be a myth or a legend, it is written based on some degree of fact.
And as much as this World Tree is called a god to them, there was a shaman who assisted that god, and that being is a being who calls himself a guardian knight who protects the world tree and is a high elf who rules over all white albs.
+++++
This beauty, with long, pointed ears that are much longer than other elves, and teardrops nestled under her beautiful eyes, through her hair that looks like golden threads, is impressive. You should know that she is Lacia Mimir Alb, a high elf wearing a see-through chiton, befitting a priestess serving as an oracle of the World Tree.
A noble high elf, Lacia, closed her eyes in a temple nestled within the body of the World Tree.
Except for meal and sleeping times, prayers are made to this sacred tree. An extremely simple routine that occupies most of the day, but she is the representative of the elf race. As much as directly enshrining the sacred tree, it is a sacred work to receive the prophecy and oracle of the World Tree, praying for the prosperity and safety of the Elf race, and a better future.
Pajijik-!
“… “
Reisa’s ears, which had been closing her eyes, twitched.
Pajijik-!
Sounds like radio waves crackling, but it’s not just noise. If it was noise, it should be heard by everyone around here, but no one could hear it except for Lacia, who was praying in the temple right now.
Neither the maids who served the high elves nor the knights could hear it.
It can only be heard by Lacia, the only being who can communicate with the World Tree
‘Also… Another prophecy… The future… !’
How many times already
The World Tree, which has been silent for centuries, is about to show Lacia anew her prophecy and the future she has glimpsed in just a few years since her last prophecy.
“… “
‘Can we escape from that future of ruin this time?’
A few years ago, the prophecy came suddenly. The prophecy shown by the World Tree, which remained silent even at the time when the Demon King was in a state of turmoil, Lacia was the image of a burning World Tree in that prophecy, a very shocking future.
However, from the prophecy of destruction, Lacia, who caught a glimpse of her compatriot, the princess of the Dark Elves, Lenaris, who walked at night, captured her compatriots and handed them over to humans in order to save the World Tree from destruction.
Her surest way was to kill her.
But she couldn’t. It is impossible to go to war with the black clan to change the future scheduled right now, and the sin of trying to go against the natural order for the future will come back to them someday.
They could do anything to save the World Tree, but they knew better than anyone else that the greater the crime they committed for him, the bigger the wave would come and hit their future. That’s why Lacia sold Lenaris to humans.
If sold to her humans, the greedy and filthy humans would never free Lenaris from her enslavement, nor would they let her die. Actually sealing Lenaris, which seems to be related to the destruction of the World Tree, in the land of humans.
This was the best Lacia could do.
Of course, he thought of the hardships Lenaris would face in the process, but compared to the destruction of the World Tree, the sufferings the princess of the black clan would suffer were nothing more than the fluttering of the wings of a small butterfly.
You can call me a hypocrite. It’s okay to say it’s a dirty year. However, Lacey was a high elf, and was always ready to do anything for the prosperity and well-being of her race. Even if it meant killing her compatriots and selling the princess.
But today, after just a few years, the world tree is about to make another prophecy.
Will something be different this time
The beginning is different, but the end is always from the prophecy of destruction in which everything is burned. Will the World Tree and our people be saved?
Lacia accepted the divine aura that entered her own head without rejecting it.
And
“Hah?!”
Again
And everything is on fire.
Her own people were fleeing from the flames that blazed all around her. And following them were orcs with silver, black, and golden skins.
“Okrani… ?!”
Orcs, all orcs must have been annihilated by the hand of a hero from another world?! A series of more vivid and destructive scenes than the last prophecy.
-Everything for the Master!
– Trampling! Commit it! This is a temple for the master! All of you insignificant bitches will crawl at your master’s feet!
I couldn’t see their faces, but two naked women with silver hair and a woman with blue hair were leading the way in trampling the village. Then, behind the women, something green that could be said to be incomparable to evil itself followed them with her own obscene genitals erected.
-Woogh-wong-wong!
– Whoa, whoa!
“Ahhh… ! That, that!!”
Lenaris caressing the being’s genitals, barking like a dog, and playing tricks…
-Master, give grace to your bitch Lacia… !
Laysia, rubbing her face against the genitals of her being, longing for her affection, she saw her own figure.
“What’s wrong?!”
And after Lacia got a glimpse of her future self, she woke up from the future prophecy shown by the World Tree and returned to reality.
“No… This is not this!!!!! This is not it!!!!!!”
-Miss Lacia?! What are you doing?!
An attendant who was waiting quietly outside was startled by Lacia’s screams that echoed the temple and ran to Lacia. And he supported Lacia, who was breathing heavily.
‘Why?! Why is the future like this?!’
Surely Lenaris has been sealed away in the land of humans, but why is she trampling on her world tree again? How did she come out?! Above all, the beings attacking this forest were not human. No, it was in human form, but should we call it human?
“Sow… “
Yes, they were nasty sows in human form. And the evil being who came from behind with the sows. The evil being who tamed Lenaris and Lacia herself into bitches must be… !
“Oh, orc… Oak… !”
Rattling-
Lacia’s body trembled.
She doesn’t know why she’s contributing to the destruction of the elves and the world tree in the future, but the most important thing for her right now is-
“No, I, I no longer… “
“Lacia-sama, what the hell is going on! Maybe, maybe another prophecy… ?!”
“Terraris, gather information on the continent right now.”
“What information… You mean?”
“The whereabouts of Lenaris, the princess of the black clan. It’s about where she went, where she was sold.”
“The black princess said that at that time we told the humans… “
“Stop pouting any more, now! It’s a doomsday prophecy… “
“Ancient?! Uh why?! Perhaps, in that future, the princess of the black family again… ?!”
Lacia saw herself in her mirrored future, betraying her compatriots and becoming an orc’s faithful bitch, but she didn’t tell the attendant until then. Fearing that the princess of her black clan would burn this land, she was sealed away, and in her upside down future, along with her, Lacia herself betrayed her clan.
That means Lenaris, the future changes depending on where she is and what she is doing.
“For a moment!”
“Yeah, what else… ?!”
Laceia caught the attendant running out of her tracks.
“Find the black princess and find another piece of information.”
“Just tell me”
“It is an orc. Investigate whether there are orcs on this continent and whether there are orcs who survived the last war.”
“Ancient!!”
The attendant bowed her head to Laysia as it was, and ran out of her tail.
And Lacia, who was left alone in her temple, knelt down on her knees.
“No, I, I no longer… I no longer… “
She groped her own neck with her jade-white hand.
