?


    With everyone prepared, I look once again at everyone''s position while I go over in my mind everything I should do, because I only have one chance, we won''t have room for maneuver if something goes wrong.


    The Old Elves who came from the other two Elf viges I''ve been through are spread evenly around the World Tree, I look to Freya who would be closer to me.


    Freya starts the first step, she extends her Aura to the Old Elves on her left side and her right side, her Aura harmonizes with their Aura before her Auras move to the next Old Elves and so on to all the Old Elves around the World Tree are connected by their Auras with Freya serving as the core for this to be possible.


    I see and feel the Aura of these Ancient Elves flowing continuously in a circr stream around the World Tree using their bodies as a path.


    With that part ready I look at Silvia and she goes towards the Gray Elf King along with Lorraine, the two look at me as if expecting something, so knowing it was my turn to act, I went to the World Tree.


    Sigh


    "(Calm mind... don''t try to act without thinking one more time...)" (I)


    As soon as my hand touches the bark of the World Tree I can hear countless screams mixed withughter, it was more than bizarre and I was not able to understand thenguage of most of the screams, but I was still able to feel where these screams wereing from, it wasing from a ck and purple energy inside the World Tree, this energy seemed to spread like a virus while devouring the energy of the World Tree.


    I couldn''t do anything against this tainted energy and I didn''t need to, I used my Aura to harmonize with the World Tree with just one connection I could use, that will be enough for now.


    I felt that as I did this the energy flows of nature that Lorraine connected to me to increase my speed of recovery were still there, it was supposed to be temporary but I could feel it was still there even if faintly, and as soon as I connected to the World Tree these energy flows seemed toe alive as they also connected with the World Tree forming a flow of nature energy flowing between me and the World Tree.


    With that stronger connection, it would be easier toplete what I had to do, but it also shortened the time, my body couldn''t withstand for a long time the energy that was flowing between me and the World Tree.


    I look at Silvia and she wasing with an arm that was partially wood, this arm wasing apart as Silvia brought it to where I was, when she reached me the only thing there was a big crystal.


    But I could see that there were lines of energy attached to the crystal that wereing towards me, it was only when I followed those lines that I noticed Lorraine standing next to me, her face covered in sweat and a pained expression in her eyes while holding an energy sphere between the two hands, it was from this sphere of energy that the energy lines were connected.


    "Silvia, now!" (I)


    Silvia wasted no time, she flew to the middle of the World Tree where the hole was, then she threw the crystal there, I let my blood flow into the World Tree where it went to the hole in the middle.


    I use my blood which bes red lines thate out of various points from the hole in the middle of the World Tree trapping the crystal in the middle.


    With that done Silviaes back to me and we stand side by side as she also ces a hand on the bark of the World Tree, I could feel her using her Authority to burden the flow of energy and that is what she concentrated on as I used my Authority to go through my blood inside the World Tree and reach where the crystal was.


    I use my Authority to carefully break the crystal letting the World Tree Spirit out, I thought it might be another Elf since almost everyone I encountered maintained Elf appearances, but to my surprise, this World Tree Spirit was just a sphere of multicolored light.


    "Lorraine..." (I)


    I wanted to warn Lorraine that it was her time to act, but it wasn''t even necessary to finish my words when I felt a current of energy burning my blood while still inside the World Tree.


    I wanted to look up to confirm but it was no longer possible, I had to keep precise control over everything now, Lorraine synchronizes her Aura, Authority, and Power with me. <novelsnext></novelsnext>


    The fair threads of my blood that held the World Tree Spirit were burned away as streams of energy took their ce connecting the Spirit to the tree.


    "(Now that the problem begins... hugh!!!)" (I)


    It was no surprise when that World Tree energy flowed through my blood and into me, that was the n from the start, a suicidal n if I was alone.


    This almost infinite energy passes through my body and goes to Silvia before returning to the World Trees, this energy passing through my body was tainted with the power that corrupts this World Tree, and this corruption is trapped in my body before going to Silvia who harmonizes this energy and directs it back to the World Tree.


    In other words, I was a filter, this filthy corruption was not able to do anything against me, this was something I realized during the fight, the Blessings within me destroy this corruption which made me very useful in the work of ridding the World Tree of this energy.


    The problem was that it was still too slow, the amount of energying into my body still wasn''t fast enough and that''s when Freya along with the other Ancient Elves used their energy to push this corruption out towards me.


    The power of the Old Elves followed Freya''s lead, traveling deep within the world tree, dragging this corruption before bearing it towards me.


    This process took several hours and the weight on top of me was something difficult to bear as time passed, I was doing my best to bear it without losing my concentration because there was still more to do after getting rid of this corruption.


    As the hours passed, the corruption lessened more and more, it made the damage against the World Tree more apparent, this corruption had even be part of the World Tree''s vitality, getting rid of that corrupted part was the same as get rid of that vitality.


    When all the corruption had filtered out the tree was dry on the outside, the World Tree Spirit was still in the middle of the hole unable to merge with its body, but at least its energy was flowing between its spirit and its body.


    "< Blood Eclipse Dragon Authority >" (I)


    I felt the Blessings of the Goddess of Life Awaken within me as vital energy that seemed limitless flowed through my body to the World Tree.


    I also use my ability to perform something simr to an Awakening Ceremony, with the activation of this it was no surprise that my energy was depleted before even starting to count the milliseconds, fortunately, the endless vitalitying from the Blessing of the Goddess of Life and Lorraine started pouring her energy into Silvia before it was passed on to me.


    With so much extra energy I was able to activate the Ceremony of Awakening, but I wasn''t trying to turn this World Tree into a servant of mine or part of mypanions, so I only partially utilized this Ceremony of Awakening to fuse the Spirit together with its body.


    This greatly eased the burden on me, I managed to activate the Ceremony and countless magic circles appeared around the World Tree, from these magic circles the various streams of energy were being drawn into the World Tree connecting with it once more.


    I could feel the spirit of the World Tree bing one with its body once more, the energies being channeled through my body were all taken away at once when the Awakening Ceremony was stopped midway through.


    For a few seconds, I felt the spirit of the World Tree wake up and expand its power leaving my mind nk unable toprehend the absurd amount of information passing through it, a cyclone of energy formed in the clouds above as lightning shot out of the World Tree in hundreds of different directions, these rays hit various energy streams in the environment forcing it to connect once more to the World Tree.


    "...." (Silvia)


    I had seeded, but suddenly the world stopped going dark when I lost consciousness with Silvia saying something I didn''t hear.
