Blood Elf Monarch

Chapter 373 Continue



King Castian explained what he had seen from his [Soul Seek] ability against the skull skeleton.

There was actually another layer that would lead them to the end of the elves' expedition and within that layer, the secret of the mist will be waiting for them.

He couldn't see more of the image behind the layer connecting the two different worlds as there was powerful magic blocking his abilities, even so, he firmly believed that wise decisions were needed to determine who would continue on this dangerous expedition and who should return immediately.

King Castian and Callan start checking the condition of the party, and see that the ancient healing magic cast by High Elves king could dispel the curse of the night wolves, however, it was unable to heal physical wounds so those who were seriously injured still needed to be treated.

All of the magus level elves were busy casting their heal magic spell for healing those who were severely injured physically leading to the high elven magus levels using their sky-ability to heal those who were wounded from bites. They were trying to grow new flesh and bones but the effect will not occur in an instant. Growing flesh and especially bones takes time.

Meanwhile, a magus level elve as strong as King Vizier could create metal implants using his special magic to replace the muscle and flesh on his shoulder that had been torn apart by the titan wolf in an instant.

"This is nothing. Everything is fine." He murmured to himself after final-checking his new build-up shoulder made of metal.

"You really don't want to miss anything, do you?" Princess Illiana commented on her father's action.

"We've come this far, there's no way I'd be home early"

The dark elve king really didn't want to miss the opportunity to go to that layer and continue the expedition with those who were the strongest.

Unlike King Vizier, the Mirkwood King, King Haladar decided not to continue the expedition because his injuries were still severe and he was no longer interested to continue as he had found the remains of his son's body.

King Castian decided who would go and who would return to the palace.

"Considering how dangerous the conditions behind that layer are, it's best if only the strongest and still able to fight continue." obviously King Castian told the reason.

All magus level elves would be involved in the follow-up expedition except for King Haladar and the wounded dark elves.

He included himself as the leader of the elve expedition, King Castian will be accompanied by two of his trusted high elves, Kolvar and Osgiliath, and three high elve elders who had survived the war against the wolves with minor injuries.

Then also the Queen of Vanyar, Callan, and Hanz. They were very enthusiastic to continue the expedition until the final.

The Dark elve king, King Vizier will be accompanied by one of his dark elve elders.

In addition,

The high elve king asked King Vizier to lend the princess as the leader of those injured elves who had to return to the castle for further treatment and wait until fully recovered.

"Don't be a burden to the others in my absence, Princess." King Vizier still teased his daughter with his sarcastic words.

"Are you talking to yourself? Look at that wound of yours!"

"Ha ha ha ha."

The last one who will continue the expedition was Tristan. The blood elf who managed to defeat the titan wolf, making it helpless with his bare hands, has managed to gain recognition from the magus level elves, especially when the dark elven king really couldn't stop mentioning his prowess from earlier.

The decision was made, and the dark elves princess came to approach Tristan

Illiana was actually don't really like the idea at all, she was always a fighter and she really wanted to know what really lies in the center of the mist.

The Dark elves princess look toward Tristan, asking for a decision and Tristan actually agree for her to return.  Even the second layer able to take magus's lives, he really rather have one of his trusted companion to stay out of danger.

"Tristan, I will be waiting for you at the Arcadia, You should come home alive," Princess Illiana spoke to Tristan while looking her husband straight in the eye.

"Of course i will, and i will not forget bring back souvenir"

Although seems to be joking, Tristan actually dead serious for not given up on the spirit souls that he hadn't been able to collect so far, and he wont return without it.

In addition, his very high increase in battle power made him impatient to engage in more difficult battles.

Princess Illiana said goodbye to her father, then to her husband, Tristan. She really hoped that the two of them could take care of each other and then return alive.

Once again, Tristan promised his wife that, even though he himself had no clear idea how the situations in the next layer would be as Tristan really believed in his abilities now

After the final decision was declared by King Castian,They separated.

The injured elves had to leave the castle and return to the castle under the command of Princess Illiana, while the others stayed behind to continue the unfinished expedition.

Tristan followed King Castian into the castle, this time deeper into the castle grounds on the other side. A side they had never crossed before.

There was a half-destroyed staircase at the end of the room, the staircase leading to the top floor.

Tristan studied their various expressions. However, from the changing atmosphere of the air around him, he could sense how the magus level elves were serious about completing the expedition.

The atmosphere turned tense, while the sound of heavy rain outside the castle made the tension within the castle even more intense.

Arriving at the top floor, there was only an empty room with walls that had been overgrown with mold and some moss which made the room feel very humid.

There was no gap connecting the room to the outside of the castle, no damage whatsoever, and not a single speck of light from outside.

Tristan used his enhanced senses to still see clearly even though the light in the room was minimal, and something caught his attention.

At the end of the wall across the room, he saw something was moving very slowly. Something resembling a black bubble that, at first glance, looked like a giant slime.

The bubble seemed to stick perfectly to the side of the wall.

King Castian led the elves to walk toward the moving bubble.

He then explained that the bubble was a layer that he meant.

"We are already this close to our ancestors. Soon we will return to our homes."

Tristan watched the elves suddenly look excited, full of enthusiasm. He still didn't understand what they were talking about.

However, he knew that there would be another world connected to the giant bubble and they would have to pass through it to complete the expedition.

The three high elve elders looked at each other doubtfully. Meanwhile, King Vizier seemed to be clenching his jaw.

Callan and Hanz seemed to be tightening their grips on their swords in tension.

Meanwhile, Tristan just stared into the dark black bubble with a serious look. Even so, he couldn't see anything other than extremely dense darkness.

"What's in there? Can you add more detail about what we are up to?" Tristan asked.

"I already told you all the visions that I got from [Soul Seek]."

"We are going to find our home."

Tristan had absolutely no idea what was behind the bubble. And what he had to deal with there. The answer he got from the leader of the expedition could not satisfy him enough.

His eyes moved to look at Kolvar, who had just brought back the bottle containing Levi's spirit soul. The trapped spirit's soul kept shining bright like a firefly.

Tristan still hadn't found a way to steal it away secretly.

Suddenly, King Castian decided to invite them in together through the bubble that functions as a portal.

And as Tristan and the others walked closer and closer to the bubble, they could feel a terrible feeling. It was a sense of hopelessness, hatred, anger, and the desire to create destruction all of a sudden mixed into one like a whisper that kept calling from the other side.

Therefore, Tristan knew, while in there, something very terrible was waiting for him.

And as the whispers of negative feelings grew stronger, suddenly hopelessness and depression grew in his heart. It made him think of stepping back.

However, it was too late.

When King Castian touched the bubble, suddenly an explosion appeared.

Bang!

They lost their senses instantly because of the blast of air. And before they knew it, their bodies had been transported to the other side of the world.
