Chapter 3085 On the Throne

Chapter 3085 On the Throne

Luvia had also said that even if Emilia became the chosen one, she would have to deal with the problem of the forest before the full moon phase of March. The fortune teller really had said everything in advance.

"Although I already know what will happen after I lose your suppression, I must hear your confirmation again: What will happen if I don't agree with Miss Emilia Sienord becoming a tree?"

There were some voices behind him, and it seemed that many people still thought that the hypothesis of the "God Summoner" was a bit too bold. However, with the snow falling, no one really dared to yell at the "God Summoner".

"First of all, this means that all your sacrifices tonight have become a joke. If you don't want her to get on, you should actually take everyone away from the woods in advance."

The old man turned his back to his huge headless corpse, and his voice became a little slow:

"As for the consequences, the scar that tore the time order of the material world apart will engulf the Vesta Glades 'above' it, and then the entire area will become a crossroads connecting the past, present, and future. All kinds of exiled evil things and monsters that can travel through time will enter your era from here.

In addition, the scar that has lost its suppression will further tear apart the real space and time. To put it simply, the disaster of time will make the end of the world come faster."

Xia De was silent for a moment:

“Besides Emilia, is there anyone else qualified to sit on the throne?”

"Of course."

The old man nodded gently:

"In theory, in addition to the Chosen One himself, other people who have inherited the ancient power of the World Tree have the ability to sit on the throne after obtaining the seed that the Chosen One hatched through the War of Time. The Chosen One of Time is of course the most suitable choice. A powerful World Tree remnant like me can also be considered qualified. It's a pity that it's already the Sixth Era and you can't find it."

He knew what Shade wanted to say:

"Neither can the staff. It is dead."

Iluna raised her eyebrows. She certainly remembered that the condition of saving Shade mentioned by "If" was to bring the staff back to life. She had shared this with her friends Emilia and Ajelina, but unfortunately no one had any idea. Now, it seems that a clue related to this has appeared. The old man must know something.

There was another moment of silence, but Shade did not say nothing. The communication only took place in their minds:

"Luvia, how do you do it?"

Xia De asked the girl next to him, and she hooked Xia De's little finger:

"Either we ignore it, or we make whoever we catch the chosen one fill the hole. If I choose to be the chosen one of time, then the person we catch to sit on the throne needs to be prepared in advance to meet the conditions. It's too late now."

"So, I shouldn't have allowed Emilia to become the eighth chosen one from the beginning? I thought I was being good to her, but in fact, I was pushing her towards death?"

"Of course not. It's not you who chose her, it's the world that chose her. Don't be so arrogant, Shade."

But such comfort was still not enough to change Xia De's mood.

"I listen to you, so I won't hide it from you and directly agree to turn into a tree."

In this silence, the voice of the elf came from behind. The grown-up Emilia mustered up her courage and told Shade what she was thinking:

"I know you've always wanted to avoid this ending, to prevent me from becoming a tree and losing my freedom. But I've thought about a lot of things while living alone this year, and I've also thought about the relationship between myself and this world. God Summoner Xia, if this world needs me, my freedom can bring safety to this era, so why shouldn't I do this?"

Her eyes were red as she spoke, but Xia De didn't even turn around to look at her:

“That’s why I always think that we must give bored people something to do, otherwise they will definitely have crazy thoughts.”

"Let me go. Even if I sit on the throne and lose my freedom, perhaps in a few years, I will be able to walk in the woods in the form of an avatar, just like the remains of the world tree."

This was somewhat similar to the current situation of Mr. Ptolemy Albert who was watching this scene in the woods, except that the vampire coroner could go anywhere, not just in one area - he was not far from the doctor now, and the two were wary of each other.

"Cough cough."

The old man in front of the throne coughed embarrassedly;

"Although it's a bit inappropriate to say this now, I don't want to hide it. After sitting on this throne, it is basically impossible to act like me. I am a part of the World Tree. Even if others have inherited the power of the Ancient God, they are different from me. In other words, once you sit on this throne, you can never leave."

"Let me go."

The girl, already in tears, grabbed Xia De's right hand. Since she had promised, she would not take that step until Xia De allowed it:

"This is the only way. There will always be things that go wrong in life. But since we have come this far, let's face the reality. I will become a tree, I will be king, I will sit on the throne and watch over this world, and watch over you."

If she hadn't been emotional, she wouldn't have said such a sentence. After all, there are so many people here.

"If we don't require permanent suppression, but just want to suppress this time scar for a short period of time, is there any way? We now have so many chosen ones who can help. In Moon Bay, even the evil god was suppressed for a short period of time. Isn't this enough to suppress this scar for ten or twenty years?"

Shade still ignored Emilia, as if he couldn't hear what she was saying. The end of the world was very near. Maybe it wouldn't come when all the chosen ones appeared and the "door" that Luvia mentioned opened, but there wasn't much time left for people.

So in fact, he didn't need to find a way to seal this scar for ten thousand years, and a temporary seal would be enough. When the end of the world comes, whether this time scar will make it more difficult for him to save the world is not a question that needs to be considered now.

[Outsider, do you like elves so much? ]

"She" asked softly, and Shade was sure that this was a joke on him, because "she" didn't feel the heavy mood that Shade felt right now at all.

"I don't want to answer that question right now. Besides, she's grown up and isn't an elf anymore."

【Yeah? 】

"In theory, with so many chosen ones working together, we can indeed temporarily suppress this time scar."

This time the old man gave a positive answer, but then reminded:

"But this will take up most of the power of the chosen ones. I know best how terrible this time scar is. You can let them unite and use their power to temporarily control it, and then spend time looking for other solutions. But what are you going to do with the remaining five chapters of The Whispering Poems?

Even if the chosen ones united with all their strength, you almost lost this time. You can't just call on the gods every time in the future, right?"

Even if Shade was willing to do this, he would definitely not have enough divinity. He had just consumed one drop of divinity when he was promoted, and he got another drop from the chest of the Ancient One, so he still had two drops left. The hint given by the Lady of the Lake regarding this drop of divinity, that is, "in the tree, and not in the tree", was also perfectly explained.

"Let me go."

The stubborn elf girl beside him was still talking, but Shade still ignored her. Even the long-haired Luvia could feel the elf girl's fiery heart at the moment, but the fortune teller would not give Shade any advice.

This was not her Sixth Age. Since it was said that everything was decided by Shade, she would just quietly watch Shade make the final decision. Whether it was to save the elves and let the Vesta Forest fall, or to let Emilia ascend the throne, she would agree.

Past experience has shown that the final outcome does not depend on just one single decision. This time she will watch Shade make choices again and again, and then wait for the final outcome that these choices point to.

"If you want to sacrifice everyone in this woodland and the world for me alone, I will look down on you, Godcaller."

Seeing that Shade had always ignored him, the elf finally said something very outrageous. On the Glorious Messenger, the little princess who was allowed to go to the deck to witness the final outcome of the battle thought that it was the books he had read that made her say such an indecent sentence.

Of course, although Ajelina was worried about the fate of her best friend, she was more worried about her injured sister. After the time jump, Resia and Dorothy were still in the fusion state and their souls were immediately injured. They are still recuperating in the cabin. As for Emilia's matter, the little princess is very sure that Shade will handle it well. She thinks Emilia's crying eyes are very emotional, and she will not do that.

"So what is the relationship between the God Summoner and the elves of St. Byron's Comprehensive College? Doesn't the information say that Miss Sienord is still underage?"

The few ring wizards present who knew Emilia's true identity were thinking about it in their hearts, but no one would ask this question out loud.

As for Adele, who had been watching the long-haired Luvia's back, she finally came into contact with the true secret of Vestal Forest for the first time after six cycles of past lives:

"I see. For someone with a 'heart' like Shade, this is a really difficult choice."

She was very worried about Xia De at the moment.

"I"

Emilia was still talking, but was interrupted by Shade, who reached out and shoved the crying elf back behind him:

"Since all other methods have failed, I guess this is the only way."

With a soft sigh, Shade asked the tired old man amid Emilia's sobs:

"Can I take the throne?"
