Chapter 611 - Twin Elves (2/2)
Yes. The background history which was only described by lines of words in the opening music of the Dragon Soul Continent game.
Rhode didn’t understand the specific details to the history. In fact, apart from the players who were interested in archeology, most of them were only concerned about getting their hands on legendary weapons or magic scrolls and no one knew about the explicit details.
But, even so, Rhode understood this clearly: Gracier and Madaras held high status among the holy spirits!
Their presences woke the holy spirits up from their long slumber, which proved a powerful point. After all, the Carlesdine were rarely seen. But there were up to thousands of Carlesdine during the Creation War. So who would be worth the welcome of that many holy spirits?
The spiritual undulation around his hands surged violently. Rhode lifted his head and spotted two short, unremarkable pine trees before him.
Perhaps due to the long time, their trunks and branches had withered and drooped lifelessly. The towering trees around them had as though submerged their irrelevant presence entirely.
Rhode approached the two pine trees and laid his daggers before him. Then, the daggers flew out of his hands and slowly drifted forward, emanating warm, dazzling spiritual radiance from their blades.
The two pine trees lit up like Christmas trees and specks of green radiance spread upward from their roots. Then, every branches and leaves emanated a glorious luster.
Corina stood behind Rhode and looked at the scene blankly. She was flabbergasted.
At this moment, the radiance on the twin daggers flickered and two young girls emerged before Rhode.
However, Gracier and Madaras were no longer dressed in their usual plain robe. Instead, they were clad in pure, white cloaks inlaid with golden lining. Not only that, but flashy golden threads were also embroidered on the backs of their cloaks. The skin-tight clothing that they wore previously had become spotlessly white and were embedded with leather of beautiful patterns.
An immense air pressure struck forth.
Rhode took a step back uncontrollably as he almost half-knelt to the ground with his weakened knees. He had never sensed such a tremendous might from the two young girls, and not even from Lydia. They were announcing to everyone their strong, absolute authority.
However, Rhode withstood it.
His body shook slightly and he turned to find the pale Corina half-kneeling on the ground with sweat beads spread across her forehead. She didn’t dare to lift her head up.
At this moment, the two young girls turned around and gazed at Rhode with adorable smiles. Gracier and Madaras extended their hand forward. Their sweet, crisp voices sounded in Rhode’s ears like a gentle whisper of the spring breeze.
“You’ve finally awakened us, Master.”
“Our blades will fight for you and our glory will shine for you, Master. We will follow your path to the end. This is our promise and duty…” The two young girls let out a crisp, lovely chuckle before turning around and drifted to the two pine trees. They extended their finger forward and touched the branches.
The two pine trees erupted into a blinding radiance and slowly shattered into countless specks of light, which flew into their petite bodies. Shortly after, the pine trees vanished like melted snow. The brilliant rays on Gracier and Madaras shone increasingly brighter and at the same time, the spiritual radiance on the ground rippled as though responding to their presence. Every tree, branch, leaf glittered fascinatingly like an ensemble. The ground trembled as though the powerful energy contained in them was roaring and trying to break through to the surface…
And they finally emerged.
Boom—!
An ear-deafening, thunderous explosion numbed their ears and everything before them were enveloped in complete whiteness as though the entire world had been devoured.
If Rhode stepped back farther, he could see two light beams emitting from the ground, ripping through the dense clouds, blending into one with the azure sky as though they were pillars that connected heaven and earth. In an instant, the bright sun seemed inferior to the two light beams. The pale green radiance had become the main theme of the world.
“Your Majesty…”
Dale looked up with astonished, widened eyes. Not only him, but the Elf Knights around him were also stupefied and lost their calm. They gazed at the two pillars rushing into the sky in bewilderment.
The Elf Queen neglected the inappropriate behavior of her knights because she also stood to her feet and gazed at the two light beams with a complicated expression. She let out a slight sigh.
“It seems… This is the fate that we certainly have to experience.”
The Elf Queen closed her eyes and listened quietly to the almost inaudible whispers that echoed in the depths of her soul…
