Vampire Summoner's Rebirth: Summoning The Vampire Queen At The Start

Chapter 656 The Elven Continent's Peril



-----

We explored the Spirit Tree Forest, mostly to show Elfriedden and Alberta the mystical place, which was already a place of tourism for many nobles and commoners within the Kingdom. The two were amazed about the beautiful forest, so filled with spirit energy and mana it could even glow at night.

"S-So stunning... Everything is s-sparkling…" Alberta said, amazed, her big eyes shone brightly.

"This forest…" Elfriedden said, suddenly giving a rather nostalgic look, and smiling. "It feels like home… Like the forest of my country, where I used to run away from my problems. Or of people I did not want to interact with."

"Hmm, well, the lesser spirit trees had popped up only in the last two years." I said. "Right, Erika?"

"Yeah! I helped them grow up, they're all like my babies." Erika smiled. "They could one day become dryads or other spirits of the forest."

"Y-You did such a thing?" Elfriedden was surprised. "Right… I often forget you are half-dryad."

"But it's not like this is all either." Said Erika with a giggle.

We walked across the forest some more, as they were able to finally see the biggest of the trees. The Lesser Yggdrasil Trees I had planted with Eric and Erika's aid.

"T-These are… Yggdrasil?! So many…" Elfriedden freaked out. "How is this even possible in this backwater village?!"

"Oi, don't call our home like that!" Chris said angrily.

"It was thanks to the inheritance that my father left behind." Said Eric. "It was actually from our ancestor. He showed him his staff."

"That staff you had… I thought it had come from my continent." Elfriedden nodded. "So you're saying you planted trees with this? Is it some special staff that can do that?"

"No but it is made out of the spirit tree's branch." I said. "I merely cut pieces off it, imbued them with life and nature magic, and made them regrow into full-fledged trees, there was another on Eric's house, didn't you see it?"

"R-Right…" Elfriedden said in shock. "You can do such a thing though?! Even… with the magic of the elves, such a thing is nothing but completely impossible."

"Is that so?" I wondered. "I had accomplished it even before Erika's help… I guess my magic is better than those of the elves, heh."

"Don't get too cocky now…" Elfriedden sighed.

But it's true though… Although I cannot tell him directly, this world's magic is far too behind the magic of the universe I once explored. They rely on their spirits to make their own magic, and it is often restrictive and basic in nature.

Magic Circle Formula Creation and other things are not as studied here, and most of the time, everyone relies on their spirits magic to conjure magic by itself, skipping magic circles which can give birth to a myriad of intricate spells never seen before in here.I think you should take a look at

Well, if I ever want a hobby once the war against the demons is over, I could become a Magic Teacher and teach a much better magic to this world… Well, maybe, just maybe.

"Hmph, I am quite interested in this book you were talking about, Eric." Elfriedden said. "You said something about an ancestor that visited my continent long ago?"

"Oh, yeah…" Eric said.

"We wanted to ask you about that too but we couldn't find the time for it." I admitted. "By any chance, does your people know about the Fafnir and the Spirit Queen?" I asked.

"Fafnir?!" Asked Elfriedden. "H-How… How do mere humans know about the Dragon of Calamity?"

"It was in the journal…" Said Eric. "Maybe we should let him read it…"

"I agree." I said. "Someone that came from that continent must be able to answer even if a few more questions."

"Hmph… To think you people know about Fafnir and the Spirit Queen too…" Elfriedden sighed. "I suppose my continent's secrets are not all completely safe…"

Like that, we let him borrow the journal, Elfriedden promised not to destroy it or something, and rapidly learn through everything using his skills and high stats.

In just half an hour, he had finished, and his face was filled with shock, he glanced at Eric with surprise…

"Y-You are… you are related with the Dragon of Calamity?!" He asked. "This ancestor of yours is his father! And I can't believe that Dragon was born from a mere human and the Dragon-kin, who this ignorant calls Lizardmen!" He sighed. "These are big news… or maybe bad ones? I can't tell, honestly…"

"Has something happened since then?" I asked. "The journal describes this as something predestined."

"Indeed…" Elfriedden sighed. "Hundreds of years have passed since this was written. The birth of Fafnir, the descendant and inheritor of the Dragon God Fafnir was a big hit to our continent. At first he was peaceful, but in the last two hundred years, he had grown greedy and animalistic. The Dragon-kin, who once had a peaceful alliance with the elves, broke out the alliance and started a war against the elves. We later discovered that dark forces known as the Cult of the Dark Dragon God, were behind this."

"So there's another dark forces there." I said while rubbing my chin. "And the Dark Dragon God Cult, huh? It smells like they're not just for Fafnir alone…"

"Your intuition is good, we have recently discovered that they had been employing the power of Demons and Demonic Energy for their own gain. Somehow, Fafnir had grown corrupted with power and decided to take over the continent. We've been in a battle ever since then, which has lasted two hundred years." Said Elfriedden.

"The war is constantly in our favor, but Fafnir had yet to step into the battlefield or move. Some say he is planning something, as he has taken over the Yggdrasil Tree. Those connected with the tree say the tree is screaming in pain, and that it is slowly perishing, as someone malicious is draining its energy…"

It seemed like the elven continent was in more peril than we thought.
