I became the youngest prince in the novel Episode 223
Chapter 56 Fairy Forest (3)
The outer part of the border between the empire and the Water Sea.
“long time no see.”
The warrior Claire muttered quietly as she looked at a temple hidden in a basin at the top of the mountain.
Light, nature, sea, etc.
There are numerous attributes and concepts in the world, and corresponding gods also existed.
Therefore, gods of fate also existed, and the temple before her eyes was the only temple in the world that worshiped the gods of fate.
“I’ll go alone from here.”
After saying that to the other party members, Claire walks towards the temple.
The reason she stopped by this place before heading to the Suin Sea was because of one unresolved question.
Due to her relationship before returning, Claire had the authority to ask anything to the Temple of Fate, and she planned to use that authority this time.
“Welcome, warrior.”
Did he already know it was coming?
As soon as Claire entered the temple, she was greeted by a woman whose entire body was covered in a white robe, leaving only her mouth visible.
He was a priest who served the gods of fate.
The atmosphere of the temple was quite strange, with no sign of popularity except for the priest, but Claire approached the priest with a familiar face.
Because I knew that there was always only one priest who served the gods of fate.
‘The priests of the previous generation were Io and Teuticana, the seventh heaven.’
She, who retired and lost her connection with God, has the ability to be called a ‘sage who reads fate’, so the abilities of the priest in front of us who are currently on duty must be even greater than that.
I’m sure Claire herself will be able to give the answer she wants.
“What have you come to ask?”
A priest who accurately picks up the matter as if he never disappoints the hero’s expectations.
“Sion Agnes.”
Immediately, a name came out of Claire’s mouth.
“I want to know his identity.”
With that, Claire recalled the conversation she had with Shion at the border.
‘I said it was the power of eternity.’
However, he said that he had never actually met Yeongeokje.
‘So, it means that he accidentally discovered the power of the Eternal Emperor hidden within the imperial castle and learned it on his own… … .’
It didn’t make sense.
Because a person who had lived for nearly 20 years without any talent could not have become so strong in just one year and a few months.
However, there was no possibility that he had been hiding his power before then.
‘If that were the case, I wouldn’t have died so easily before returning… … .’
So no matter how much I thought about it, the confusion was only increasing.
at that time,
“Zion Agnes did not lie. “It’s all obvious.”
A quiet voice came from the mouth of the priest who was listening to Claire.
“Also, the answer you want is already available. “It’s just that you who dismissed it as impossible are missing the answer.”
“What is that… … .”
Before Claire could open her mouth, the priest asked another question.
“Do you remember the information about the eternal system recorded in the hidden history before the return?”
“yes.”
“Then I guess you also remember the records about that power.”
“Yes, but what does that have to do with this now…” … !”
Claire, who had been talking up to that point, stopped.
Her pupils begin to tremble like crazy as she remembers a phrase she saw from him.
“From the past to the present. “The power of Eternity has never passed on to anyone else.”
The priest slowly opens his mouth as if reading Claire’s thoughts.
“No, it is a power that cannot be continued from the beginning.”
“no way… … no way… … .”
“The gods of this world have judged.”
The Priest of Destiny continues speaking in an emotionless voice to the hero, who lets out a blank voice as if he cannot believe it.
“The hero, Claire Plosimar. I can’t save this world just by bringing you back. For that to happen, the world’s fate of destruction and the enemies that followed that fate were too powerful.”
Contrary to the voice, the priest’s eyes had an unknown light.
“So the gods came up with one more solution. “By bringing into this world a being with such overwhelming power that it can not only break through any situation or hardship, but even destroy it itself, that is, a being outside the standard.”
Out of standard or irregular.
Even among the gods, there was only one person called that in the entire past, present, and future of this world.
“Since a returner has already appeared, is there any reason why another being can’t appear?”
The Priest of Fate asked the frozen hero with a strange smile.
* * *
The streets of Elvrium, the capital of the Fairy Forest.
A rare sight was unfolding there.
Agnes’ direct royal family, especially Sion and Deanna, are known to not be on good terms.
The two were walking down the street side by side.
And he was covered in a robe so as not to reveal his identity.
“ha… … .”
One of them, Deanna, looked at the back of Zion who was ahead of her and sighed.

‘Where on earth are we going?’
With that thought, the conversation from earlier that led to this situation began to appear in her mind.
‘Nonsense!!’
These were the words Deanna shouted as she stood up immediately upon hearing Shion say that she wanted the entire Fairy Forest.
Despite her violent reaction, Shion still raised his teacup and opened his mouth calmly.
‘Why do you think it doesn’t make sense? If I didn’t solve it, wouldn’t the Fairy Forest be destroyed anyway?’
Shion spoke coldly to Deanna, who could not refute those words.
‘And this is also the last chance I give you.’
‘opportunity?’
‘Soon I will ascend to the throne. ‘You know that, right?’
‘… … .’
‘And the first thing we’ll do is start organizing the inside. Because war cannot be fought unless the inside is organized. Of course, that arrangement also includes Fairy Forest.’
The line drawn on the corner of Zion’s mouth.
‘I won’t say things like this then.’
Deanna found that laughter creepy.
After the heavy silence that followed and the exchange of glances between the other leaves,
‘all right.’
The words that came out of Deanna’s mouth were close to acceptance.
‘We can’t decide right away because we need to hear everyone’s opinions, but we’ll seriously consider it.’
Actually, there was no other way.
If he refused here, the Fairy Forest could have collapsed before Zion became emperor.
‘However, if the World Tree is truly healed completely.’
Shion got up from his seat as if that was enough and immediately started moving to take care of business, and Deanna followed Shion with the words that she would personally sit next to him and see how he solved the problem. This was the situation right now.
He was told that he had to move secretly, so he was accompanied by only a very small number of attendants.
However, Deanna was becoming more and more dissatisfied with Zion’s behavior as he just walked without saying a word for 30 minutes.
Even the two people who appeared to be Zion’s group didn’t seem to know where they were going.
“No, at least tell me where I’m going… … .”
In the end, it was time for Deanna to voice her dissatisfaction directly to Shion, who was ahead.
“Arrived.”
Shion stopped walking.
Along with that, a young question appeared in Deanna’s eyes.
“Why are you here… … .”
That’s because the place where she and Zion are now is in the middle of ‘Green Square’, which can be said to be the center of Elbrium.
“Are you ready?”
“What are you talking about getting ready all of a sudden…” … .”
At the sight of Zion tapping the floor with his toe and asking, it was a moment when Deanna and the other party members’ eyes grew filled with doubts.
“Ready to hunt.”
Whoa!
With those words, Shion struck the floor with a powerful thrust.
Gold like a spider’s web spreads around the feet of Zion.
It was the moment when the fairies around him turned to look in Zion’s direction due to his unconventional behavior.
Kwazijijik!
The floor collapsed with a loud noise, and Zion, Deanna, and the others who were on it began to fall to the bottom.
“Aaaah!”
Was it empty from the beginning?
Their new type continues to fall downward without stopping, accompanied by Selphia’s screams.
How far did it fall like that?
Tadat!
As soon as my feet finally hit the floor,
“Hey, this!!!”
A voice of astonishment came out of Deanna’s mouth.
I wasn’t surprised that there was such a large underground space in the middle of Elbrium.
A sight that comes into view now.
The sight horrified her.
Kyaaaaaaaaa!
Had he come to the devil’s station?
Monster.
Deanna’s field of vision was filled with so many monsters that they filled the entire underground space, which was so vast that she couldn’t see the end.
“How could this number of monsters be in the middle of Elbrium… … !”
And in the center of those monsters, there was a tall orchid tree.
The tree’s appearance looked similar to the World Tree, but it was surrounded by dark red blood vessels and was pulsating, giving it a very bizarre feel.
The moment Deanna saw that tree, she knew that it was the culprit behind everything happening in the fairy forest right now.
Because I could clearly feel the Spirit King-level spirit power from that tree, which I had not felt even once in nearly 40 years.
“iced coffee… … .”
When Deanna was unable to come to her senses due to the shocking facts that hit her like waves one after another,
“Kyahahahahaha!”
Liu Sina, who was next to Shion, burst into laughter and was the first to jump forward.
Let’s go together!
A horrifying blood-red energy bursts from her whole body along with a sound like scratching on a blackboard!
“How on earth do we get here…” … !”
Did he never dream that this place would be discovered?
“Stop it! “We must not allow them to approach the demon beast!”
The demons, who were looking as embarrassed as Deanna, finally came to their senses and began to respond to the witch’s attack.
but,
Quad deud deuk!
They alone were unable to stop Liu Sina, who had already passed the age of 1,000 and was approaching the end.
“Kwaaaaaak!”
The monsters begin to be pushed back by the secondary attacks of the blood pouring out in all directions and the handshakes pouring out from them.
In addition, the victory began to decline even more quickly as Deanna’s attendants escaped the shock and joined the battle one by one.
“… … “What on earth is this place?”
Deanna, who regained her composure after seeing that scene, asked in a trembling voice to Zion next to her.
“You’re asking even though you already know. “Do you want to at least get confirmation?”
Zion, who responded to her, scanned the quickly cleared battlefield and then turned his head towards the pitch-black tree pulsing ominously in the middle of the hollow.
‘Now it’s time to come out.’
In the chronicle, the group of warriors who first discovered that tree, the Demon Tree, escape from the underground cavity without being able to destroy the Demon Tree.
The reason why the group of warriors at the time, who were in the middle and latter part of the chronicle and had no chance of being defeated by force, succeeded in subjugating the Demon Tree in one go was not because of the monsters protecting the community.
‘That magic tree.’
It was because of the magic tree’s own defense system.
Could it be that Shion’s thoughts were a signal?
Wow!
The magic tree that rose in the middle of the cavity erupted with a terrible sound like a human scream.
At the same time, the pulsing blood vessels surrounding his torso were torn, and a liquid containing a mixture of demonic energy and polluted spirit power began to pour out.
and,
Ddddddddd!
A huge blood dragon slowly begins to rise from the blood of the demonic tree that dyes the floor red.
The fairies, who had stopped fighting against their will due to the unimaginable energy that burst out from them, began to look at the blood dragon with a tired look on their faces.
“We need to get out of here right now!”
Deanna, with the same expression on her face as those fairies, shouted urgently toward Sion.
“It’s something we can’t deal with on our own!”
Of course she knew.
How great is their power here now.
Nevertheless, there was a reason to say this.
The spirit power felt from that blood dragon.
The level of such spirit power was clearly higher than that of a king.
“It’s at the level of a spirit king!”
The king-level spirit, or spirit king, literally meant nature itself.
Therefore, if they were not of the same royal level or were mortal, they could not cause any damage regardless of their power.
“So come on… … !”
“No, you don’t need to.”
But Shion shook his head.
“There’s a similar guy over here.”
The moment a good line is drawn in Zion’s mouth,
Slurp!
A cool wind that can only be felt in the north began to blow through Deanna’s face, colored with doubts.
