Will of chaos

417 Cap 416: Sakura(Chapter preview)

I had thought about using my power to heal the World Tree's body and soul, but only later did I realize that I was saying something unreal.

Every time I use my power on someone the energy expenditure becomes greater according to the target's strength and potential, if I tried to use my power on a World Tree it would be the same as committing suicide.

I think my curiosity will one day end up leading to my death if things continue like this, maybe I should see a psychologist find out if there's something wrong with my head.

It could also be that being surrounded by so many crazy and weird people is getting to me, after all, I'm supposed to be the most normal person in the Dungeon.

But I noticed that the World Tree had a change in expression midway through her explanation of why my power wouldn't help in this situation.

Soon the World Tree spirit was exchanging glances with the Elf Queen who was confused at first, but gradually her face changed to a surprised and then thoughtful expression.

They stand for a few minutes in silence looking at each other, I can imagine they're just as much a conversation on their minds as I do with Layla and Nix.

Soon they stop talking and I can see a little hope in the World Tree spirit's eyes, I could also see a little happiness in the Elf Queen's eyes.

"He is sure?"  (Luthien)

"It would be a better fate than disappearing, but I must confirm with her and our other sisters first."  (Luth)

"How long would the preparation take?"  (Luth)

"For such an important job? I would need two months and your help."  (Luthien)

"Just as I should expect from you, it will be quick, others wouldn't be able to do it even if they tried for generations."  (Luth)

"I couldn't do it either, but with your power, many shortcuts can be taken."  (Luthien)

"At least to a possibility..." (Luth)

The World Tree spirit and the Elf Queen look at me with shining eyes, then the World Tree spirit affectionately pats my head.

"Thanks for offering your help, but I can't answer that right now."  (Luth)

"I need to confirm a few things first."  (Luth)

"How long are you planning to stay here in the village, Zenos?"  (Luthien)

"I was thinking about three months, if possible."  (I)

"The scenery here is magnificent, besides this village is in a good place where my companions and I can train, I imagine there must be some Dungeons in this Illusory Forest, right?"  (I)

"You can stay as long as you like, but about the Dungeons, there are only two and they are far away from here, each one is at a different end of the Illusory Forest."  (Luthien)

"That's because the World Tree controls and harmonizes all kinds of energy in this place, so there's no need for a Dungeon to be born to control the miasma and malice around here."  (Luthien)

"I understand."  (I)

"But if your goal is training, then there are many powerful monsters in this Forest, but none of them at the same level of power as you."  (Luthien)

"You must know that I have many more companions inside the Dungeon, right?"  (I)

"Actually I don't know, it was Luth who told me about his Dungeon."  (Luthien)

"I can only feel the Spirits and Fairies inside the Dungeon because of the Cradles, I don't know if there are more people or what they are doing."  (Luth)

"How many?"  (Luthien)

"A few thousand people?"  (I)

"Why are there so many people inside a Dungeon? Are you trying to build a city by chance?"  (Luthien)

"Exactly."  (I)

"..." (Luthien)

The Elf Queen makes a surprised expression, but the World Tree spirit doesn't seem to mind.

"I liked your boldness, I don't see a problem with you letting them out, but you should do it outside the village, besides that you should avoid some races that can be problematic to live with the Elves."  (Luth)

"Did he say city? Inside a dungeon?"  (Luthien)

"The races are Hobgoblins, Werewolves, Ogres, Onis, Orcs, Nymphs, Ghouls, Lamias, Arachnes, Vampires, Demons, Lizardmans, Dwarves, Runics, Humans, Beastmen, Elves, an Undead, a Homunculus, and a Dragonewt ."  (I)

"What do you mean..." (Luthien)

"I think these are all races, but most of these races are few in number."  (I)

"You can let everyone except the Undead and Demons out, there might be some complications as you can imagine if these two races show up in the middle of the village."  (Luth)

"Just make them pretend to have arrived at the village as you, through the front gate, don't need to reveal your secret to the village people or guests."  (Luth)

"Okay thank you."  (I)

----------

After a while of talking, I talked to Nix, Layla, and Orion to make sure they agreed to deliver the World Tree seed to the other continent.

To my surprise, Nix and Layla said that I should accept this, as a Fairy and a Nature Spirit they don't like the fact that an entire continent is destroyed.

Orion said he'd be happy to help with anything I'm going to do.

Then I went to talk to the Keeper for a while to be sure what she wanted to do, so she only made one request, she wanted a name.

After everything was resolved I went back to Speak with the spirit of the World Tree, she said that I can start the process whenever I want.

I go to the Guardian and I put my hand on her abdomen, after that I started sending my Aura directly into the Guardian's body, so I activated the Blood Pact skill.

I feel the blood and Ki leaving my body and going into the Guardian's body, but this time I'm not feeling the usual weakness, maybe because I'm much stronger than before.

Soon black energy leaves my body forming the figure of my Astral Body which was a little different, this time it was a humanoid body still covered by a hood and cape seeming to be made of shadows, inside the hood there was still that image that resembles a starry sky, but which are actually the glows of my power flows within me.

What was different was that the claws of the shadows were replaced by the claws of dragon scales of black crystal with the same sparkles that it has inside its hood, in addition, it had a pair of wings behind its back with an ethereal appearance, they were wings of black feathers that seem to be made of black smoke and inside the wings, you could see the same image from inside its hood that resembles a starry sky.

Her sight became even more startling, this time my Astral Body turns to the World Tree, before turning to the World Tree spirit, then it turns to the Guardian stretching out its claws which sink into her chest.

Then I feel a connection forming between me and the Guardian, and then the messages with the list of powers I can grant pop into my head, but this time I don't feel the information overload I felt before.

I didn't have to think too much to choose the skill [ Elemental Affinity Darkness: 1 ], but there was still one more skill that I had to think about a few seconds before choosing [ Affinity with Blood: 1 ], I chose this skill because once the Guardian told me of the skills she has related to blood from being born from a blood tree, but she didn't have this Affinity among her skills, with this skill she will be even stronger.

Ding!  Ding!

<[ Power grant ended ]>

<[ Spiritual bond successfully created ]>

After that, the Guardian's body started to float after my Astral Body removed his hands from inside her body, so the Guardian's body is floating on top of the two claws of my Astral Body.

Soon red and black energy leaves appear forming a small tornado around the Guardian's body before compacting into a cocoon of leaves surrounded by the pure energies of the elements Darkness, Blood, and Wood.

I can feel her inside the cocoon ready to come out for a little while, but it's like she's been waiting for something, then I start to feel her anxiety for something and I remember one thing, she wants a name.

I close my eyes and try to remember a good name for it, then the image of a tree that I have never had the pleasure of seeing in person appears in front of me, all I could see were pictures and footage of that tree in my previous life, but its dazzling beauty impressed me, I will name this tree for the Keeper.

"Her name will be Sakura!"  (I)

As soon as I named her a glow started to flash faster and faster and more intensely in this cocoon of leaves, I could see a humanoid shape inside the cocoon moving.

"My name is Sakura!!!"  (Sakura)

Soon I hear her voice resonate from inside the cocoon that dissolves in energy to the surroundings revealing a stunning woman, her skin was dark like mine, her eyes were one golden and the other purple like mine, her hair was always red, but this time her long hair was the same red as mine.

She looks like a 16 or 17 year old girl, but her sensuality and beauty surpass even the most famous models from my previous world, her beauty is on the same level as Nix and Layla, her height was around 1.75 meters, she is wearing pants and shirt made of red, black and green leaves.
