Chapter 94: Travelling at Night (1/2)
Falling asleep swiftly, Nisha entered her [Inner World] Taking a moment to appreciate the beauty of the landscape hidden inside her soul, the dragon let her senses wander
Flowing through hidden valleys, brooks and sharp cliffs, the forest covering the surroundings was very fa to the [Dragon’s Den]
Aside froanized all of the various treasures she obtained either fro other beasts and one on nu for the limits of the forest and the world inside her soul
Relying on her senses, Nisha could travel far faster than she could with a physical body, yet she had yet to reach a limit to the lands inside the [Inner space] Additionally, depending on the direction she traveled, the terrain also shi+fted An ocean, a desert, flowing fields of grass andexisted in here Even crystal caverns and open valleys filled with flowing ma, all kinds of mysterious sceneries appeared
However, ever since she fored here A neind appeared, drifting over the woods, the stones and even the air itself
Closing her eyes and looking for changes, a particular scene attracted her attention
Inside the sh the treasure valley, she had previously thrown the pearl and the chunk of metal she won at the festival inside So far she had no real need for it and had not paid them much attention,in the hidden rooeon and the other treasures here
Her reason for the sudden attention was a s both thetendrils like a spider web to hold itself in place while enveloping the her mana inside the web to ascertain the nature of the anonize the structure
By nature of the contract, Little Lia held a connection with her soul The lunized it as the spirit that appeared when she had opened the second egg Intered into her body earlier, however, the elf had no idea it actually entered the [Inner space] Additionally, co the day, noas far denser, yet at the saed fro the web holding everything together
Studying the anoet an expert’s input Although she had so spirits from her friend Thana at the te how ular books which had no connection to cultivation andher closer to the answers, she waved her hands in a wide arc Wherever her ar to her desired destination appeared
Striding through the golden gate, a new scene erass contained a delicate tea table as well as two chairs of the sa the sceneries, war reigned supre stone axes and spearseither war antheh, neither of the tarring factions took notice of the peaceful sphere
In a prion admired the valor of the warriors None of them shi+ed away from the bloody affair, none dropped their weapon, even in their moment of death For their conviction, they earned Nisha’s respect
Approaching the woure adorned with purple hair, Nisha did not call out to her This was Gabriel’s and Bael’s domain Whatever happened here, they were already aware Similarly, the elf instantly noticed the invader in her space There was no need for greetings
“What can I do for you, little one? It’s been awhile since your last visit”
A pang of guilt ran through the elf’s body True, she hadn’t visited the heavenly sisters as often as her other acquaintances, after all, the other party was a pair of true Goddesses! While she didn’t feel the pressure personally, a for, no need to look that guilty When you live as long as I do, you start to count the years like days From my perspective, it’s been barely a moment since you were here the last ti the other seat to her visitor, Bael smiled aht Nevertheless, Nisha resolved herself to visitI don’t understand and it happens to fall right into your ele at What’s happening there?”
Taking a seat, she realized there was even a pot of tea prepared, with two cups, one already used
Filling the fresh one with a mouthful of tea, Bael handed it to her
“It’s an old story, actually A long tio, two tribes existed I take it you remember the story about the two tribes before that Well, these tribes were si on soh they had relations in that way, the clans neverin peace, they prospered One day, however, relics started appearing Made by their ancestors, their interpretation varied, symbols indicated how they lived in the past Whatever they saw, one of the families believed in the old artifacts while the other vehe it blaspheeneration
Faith always divided dynasties, even tribes are no exception”
Making a pause, either to rehed deeply
“Anyway, these two tribes never traded again and started to hate each other One of them followed the faith of the artifacts, while the others reinning, they only eyed each other carefully, scorning the other party for their choices
Over a generation, this delicate balance worked, the tribes prospering, not as much as when they traded, yet they still expanded One fateful day, their ways crossed again Wary from the accounts their fathers told them - colored in the scornful opinion each individual held - they disdained each other
Clashi+ng time after time, their relations finally broke down
Can you believe it? A whole generation died in this argument Neither side knehat they died for, whether their fathers were right or wrong Each side believed them to be just, yet all of theotten in the river of time Isn’t it a sad story?”
Deep inside, Nisha knew this wasn’t just a story The vivid ies seemed more like a ht? Did the beliefhow all of the brave warriors were bound to die in this place, the dragon felt sad Fighting bravely, at least some of them should have been rewarded with victory
“In their oay, both tribes were justified in their oay The artifacts and the ways passed down by their ancestors didn’t differ thatto the death over the details, I think they were both wrongs in the end
Do you knohat stood in the place where we sit right now? It held significance for their fight”
S slyly, Bael reminiscenced Nisha knew a few details of the last story Linking the tribes which got ruined in the past with the current story, she had an idea
