Chapter 707 - Realm Fusion (7) (2/2)

Link knew that she had something important to say, so he didn’t say anything. He sat on the ground, waiting patiently.

“Mr. Theodore, as you guessed, Our Majesty found a demon in the palace. According to our eyes in the palace, the demon wore a horrifying battle robe, and she uses two swords. She is beautiful but cold and cruel inside. Nothing bad has happened to the palace, but everyone who has seen her can easily feel the evilness in her.”

Link wasn’t surprised that Saroviny had come. His face didn’t betray anything. Arching an eyebrow, he said, “The World Tree repels any dark aura. The palace is especially pure and holy. How can something so evil be there?”

Seve guessed that this must be some powerful existence. When her father and the other elders knew about this, they were all thrown into panic.

They had worked with the demons of the Black Forest before, but that was to fight against the humans. The elves still hated the dark side ever since the ancient times. Now the High Elf Queen was allowing this demon to stay in the pure royal court. Not only was it bizarre, but it also tainted the wisdom that the ancient sages had given them.

The Elder Council could hold a meeting to dethrone the queen just because of this!

Link’s question concerned the problem’s essence too. Why didn’t the World Tree do anything? This was a terrifying question.

“Perhaps… this demon’s power is beyond our imagination. I personally believe that it’s not that the queen wants to work with the demon. She just can’t drive it away, so she was forced to cooperate,” Seve said. This was a horrible guess. If it was true, it meant that the High Elves on the entire Isle of Dawn would be forced by a demon from another realm. The High Elves were facing a catastrophe!

Link agreed with Seve. The World Tree was powerful, but it was still a dead object. Saroviny wasn’t at Level-19, but her father was a true god. His advice could easily help her avoid the World Tree. Link did the same, after all.

Thinking of this, Link tapped his sword’s hilt. “It seems like we have reason to believe that Her Majesty is being controlled by the demon. Tomorrow’s meeting is critical. If something happens, the elders may be killed by the demon. The Isle of Dawn may become the demon’s lair… We must prevent this!”

He’d just put his hand on his sword, but Seve felt his aura change. Cold murderous intent rose from her heart, piercing her skin. She felt extremely uncomfortable as if she would be beheaded if she moved.

As a Level-9 Magician, she’d seen many things. She shuddered after sensing this aura. The Heart of the Strong had said that the true strong didn’t only have great power. They also had the courage to go against any difficulties. The book also said that true Warriors all had condensed murderous aura. When it was activated, everyone around them would feel unsettled. The more serious ones might even faint… Theodore had become a truly strong figure after his year in the Black Forest. But sadly, he was still too weak. How could he fight against the scary demon?

Thinking of this, Seve urged, “Mr. Theodore, many elders have thought of this, but the demon is honestly too powerful. We suspect that she’s at least Level-17. This isn’t something either of us or the entire Isle of Dawn can face.”

Link’s brows twitched, and he glanced at Seve. “Can’t face? But you don’t look too scared. Do you have an idea?”

“Yes.” Seve nodded. “My father and his close friends discussed it last night. They prepare to ask the Ferde lord for help.”

Link was surprised. He didn’t think things would go so smoothly, but it was still a good thing. He nodded. “That’s a good idea and the only solution. But you must not have come to me to say this. Tell me, what can I do?”

“I need you at the Elder Council tomorrow. Use your experience in the Black Forest to delay things. If you can help the queen see through the demon’s trick, it’ll be even better.”

“I see. I will try my best. It’s also my wish.” Link agreed without hesitation.
