Chapter 901: Fairy Nest

“It should be around here…”

Rhode hovered in midair and shifted his gaze between the system map and the surface. After obtaining the Illusion Crystal, he became generous in consuming his spiritual powers. Fusing with the Spirit Bird and soaring in the sky was something he would have only done during battle if this were in the past.

If it weren’t for the absolute wall of Order, he would have gotten Lapis to specially create a set of armor instead of holding onto the crystal to replenish his spiritual powers. After all, this was too inconvenient.

Currently, he was hovering over the mountain ranges around the lakes. The forest was filled with lush trees and the radiance from the sun made it look like a wide green blanket.

Rhode shook his head as he discovered that his ability to adapt wasn’t as great as he thought it was. Back then in the Land of Atonement, he had gotten used to the strange collisions of day and night pretty quickly. But now, he realized that he couldn’t adapt to the feeling of being as though in outer space. Every time he lifted his head to the sky, he couldn’t help but question how the sun brought warmth to them and why the moon was so close to him. That’s right, whenever it was nightfall, he witnessed the gigantic astral body that covered one-fifth of the sky emerging from the horizon before slowly drifting to the sky. Even though its radiance wasn’t as glaring as the sun, it presented a pure, gentle brilliance and it was due to this that Rhode clearly witnessed the craters on its surface.

Could it be that I’m in outer space? What about the meteoroids? Would they crash toward us?

Although small meteoroids would turn into ash as soon as it struck the atmosphere, Rhode wasn’t even sure if this place even had one in the first place.

Science is dead…

Forget it. Science isn’t reliable in this world of magic anyway.

Rhode slowly descended and scanned for the Fairy Nest. Shortly after, he spotted his target, and it wasn’t because they were eye-catching. Instead, it was their melodious and wonderful singing that led him to them.

As expected, Rhode saw a dozen fairies dancing in the forest near the edge of the lake. They sang in beautiful tunes as they constructed their home. The fairies didn’t sing in harmony but instead took turns as though beating the drums and passing the flower. They sang in their unique language that sounded sweet, crisp, and carefree. But strictly speaking, they weren’t only singing. Instead, this was their way of communication too. It just sounded to outsiders that they were great singers.

If one didn’t understand what they were singing, one could enjoy their melodic songs. But if one were to understand them, it would be an entirely different matter. There was once a player who was too curious. He spent his precious experience points in learning the fairies’ language just to understand them.

Other players witnessed the fairies circling and singing around him and felt he could never get more blissful than this. However, that was because they couldn’t understand the fairies’ language. On the contrary, that particular player listened clearly.

“What a silly big man… His face is as black as charcoal… Holding onto a sword… How dark. How scary…”

The player regretted his decision.

This story taught us that ignorance could be blissful at times but apparently not everyone understood this.
