Odyssey of the Blind God

Chapter 353 Nightshadow Elf



When Nial entered the Forest of Life, his condition had already been resolved.

He was overflowing with power and he was ready to rumble once he had a nice talk with Master Crevian.

There were a few things he wanted to discuss with Master Crevian, and possibly also the Moonlight Elf Valvian, which included the rough date for Jundra\'s awakening.

Nial was pretty sure that either Master Crevian or Valvian knew roughly when Jundra\'s planetary mana awakening would be.

Thus, he was on his way to the center of the Forest of Life when he noticed that there was some trouble ahead.

A few young Nightshadow Elves and Dark Elves talked down to the ordinary Elves, who were just doing their work.

Nightshadow Elves were comparable to High Elves in terms of talent and they considered themselves nobles.

Thus, the ordinary Elves were nothing but peasants in their view. This was something one could clearly see based on the way the Nightshadow Elves treated the Elves, annoying the hell out of Nial.

There was no time to stir trouble in their own rows. Instead, everyone should focus on becoming as strong as possible.

"What is going on here?" Nial asked one of the Elves standing next to him. They were shivering in fright, which was an exaggerated reaction in his opinion. But he might as well be mistaken.

"I..I\'m not sure…Dark Elves usually steer clear of Yggdrasil…and Nightshadow Elves are forbidden from entering Yggdrasil altogether. Their innate powers are destructive, after all!" The Elf just explained, not noticing that he spoke to Nial.

Nial nodded his head while looking at the young Nightshadow Elves and the Dark Elves.

His own power had destructive properties as well, which meant that he wouldn\'t usually be accepted by the Elves, let alone Yggdrasil. Only the Ankh\'s existence changed this for him, making him a unique existence.

He may have destructive properties but the love of both nature and mana was still present for him.

After he had been linked with Yggdrasil for quite a while, Nial could understand why the Nightshadow Elves were not allowed in Yggdrasil.

However, they must have entered the Sacred tree in order to pass through the Empress\' portal. That was the only way for them to enter Jundra, after all!

Nial sensed the presence of both Valvian and Master Crevian at that moment. He disappeared from his position and emerged next to them a moment later.

Both Elves looked at Nial with a weird grimace but Nial ignored this.

"What is going on here?" He asked simply and straightforwardly.

"We received a report from the Empress…" Valvian just said, feeling like ending his explanation at this point already. He was way too aggravated at the mere thought of handling arrogant Nightshadow Elves.

The youngest High Elf born in the last 30ish years was the Royal Princess, and she was too powerful to enter Jundra. The planet restricted her from using the portal to Jundra. This was also why not a single High Elf had emerged on Jundra yet.

On the other hand, there were a bunch of young Nightshadow Elves, which meant that the Moonlight Elf, Valvian, would have to attempt to control powerful and destructive Elves, who were considered equals to High Elves and Sacred Elves…

Valvian felt like resigning from his position as Moonlight Elf of the Forest of Life, but that was easier said than done.

He had made a vow and was bound to it.

"The Empress was \'requested\' to join hands with the other Elven races. By now, you should have already realized that a few more Elven races exist, including the exiled Elves. Not many Elves live in or around Yggdrasil anymore," Master Crevian suddenly said, explaining the given situation to Nial.

Nial was thankful for that and he waited for Master Crevian to continue speaking.

"The situation changed now and all the Elves want to work together to build a foundation on Jundra. Of course, they only showed signs of wanting to cooperate when they realized that the Empress had found a way to stabilize a permanent portal to Jundra.

Unfortunately, it is not like everyone wants to work under the Empress as her loyal subjects. On the contrary, a few new Gods have ascended in the rows of the other Elven races, and they have \'worked\' together to \'convince\' the Empress that it was in everyone\'s best interests to open the portal to Jundra for all Elven races. Master Crevian sighed deeply when he was near the end of his explanation as he added the most obvious reason.

"Being in a weakened state after she shattered her Divinity intentionally, the Empress is not as powerful as earlier anymore. Newly ascended Gods may not be on par with her but it looks like the other Elven races concealed all the Gods that ascended in the last circle of 100,000 years…"

Nial listened intently and he understood the situation pretty well.

\'So simply put, the Empress was forced to obey the other Elven race, and her power was undermined. And now we have some other Elven races here, Elves who are bound to cause lots of trouble…\' Nial scratched the back of his head in annoyance.

The situation was definitely not likable but it was not as if they could change it now.

"In that case, we have to show the other Elven races who\'s the strongest, am I right?" He asked out loud, licking his lip as he sensed the darkness and shadow energy that leaked from the Nightshadow Elves.

"Well…basically that would be correct…but we\'re not strong enough to handle the Nightshadow Elves…there is a reason for them to be considered Master Assassins of the Shadow realm…" Valvian said grudgingly, acknowledging that the Nightshadow Elves were stronger than ordinary Elves.

p They were a unique race that may have the Elven origin but their behavior and desires were a lot different. One could consider them to be a pure combat race that had no relation to the preservation of Life and Nature.

Even if the other Elves considered this problematic, Nial was not of that opinion. He had a big advantage over them, and that was something he wanted to test out.

"Will it be enough if I use it myself? Probably not…I\'m still at a lower rank than them…" Nial suddenly mumbled.

There were a few things he was interested in, such as the actual number of Gods all over the Universe, and if the idea that formed in his mind was going to work out.

He disappeared from the side of the two Elves, who realized with a frown where Nial was going

"Do you think he will cause more trouble than the Nightshadow Elves?" Valvian suddenly asked, looking like he had aged tremendously.

"Nial? Definitely! He is troublesome but also talented and has his heart in the right place," Master Crevian said, revealing his honest opinion about the blind youth.

The young Original might not have won the U21 Runicier tournament and Nial might have hidden a few bits of specific information about what had happened in the Golden City, but the informant of the Elves had been able to make up for all the missing and interesting pieces of information about what actually happened during the Runicier tournament and much more.

\'He can already create Tier-2 Runic armaments, and he created two additional Unique Origin rings within the three months he stayed in Yggdrasil,\' Master Crevian thought with a small smile on his face.

He imagined how strong Nial would have been if he had spent his youth in Yggdrasil and couldn\'t help but shudder at that thought.

It was already terrifying enough to imagine that Nial had awoken his origin only three years ago and that he had gotten to know runic armaments and runic constellations merely a year ago.

Master Crevian didn\'t want to get a heart attack imagining what kind of horrifying existence Nial would become if he would spend his entire life nurtured by a powerful race.

And just like Master Crevian and Valvian expected, Nial was ready to stir some trouble.

He didn\'t think a lot about the situation and followed his instincts.

Within seconds, he appeared behind the Elves, who had been pushed over by the Nightshadow Elves. The Nightshadow Elves seemed to be around the age of Jilas, the troublesome High Elven Brat, which was why he knew how to handle them.

They were at the Prometheus rank and were likely to possess powerful Martial art techniques and even stronger abilities but Nial ignored their entire existence as he helped the other Elves get up from the ground.

"Are you guys fine?" He asked calmly as he felt several pairs of eyes boring into his back.

"W-we are fine…but l-leave quickly, otherwise, you will become their target!" One of the female Elves hurriedly said. She was even prepared to jump in between to give Nial a second or two to run away.

He decided to help them despite knowing that it was dangerous. This was naive and foolish at his rank but it showed that he had good intentions.

The opinion of many Elves had changed considerably. They didn\'t think of humans only as a servant-like race, whom they could order around whenever they wanted to.

This was an old prejudice that should have ceased to exist ages ago, which many Elves reciprocated.

Nial and many other humans showed the Elves that the prejudices were not necessarily true, let alone good. Thus, they ended up enjoying their life in the Forest of Life, where they worked hard and improved side by side with humans.

Yet, the appearance of the Nightshadow Elves changed everything once again.

It was obvious what was going to happen and the Elves of the Forest of Life didn\'t like it. They began to fear their future inside the Forest of Life, a rather disturbing one where no High Elf could protect them.

"Yoo, human trash," A cold voice speaking elvish resounded from behind Nial, "What the hell do you think you\'re doing here?"

Nial turned around slowly, smiling lightly as he shrugged his shoulders.

"No idea, what does it look like?" He answered, giving the Nightshadow Elves his entire attention.

The Elves behind him rushed away, trying to seek help from outside.

However, it was only now that they realized how everyone was already looking at the situation that unfolded in front of them.

"You!!! Do you even know whom you are talking to?!" Another young Nightshadow Elf asked, stepping forward while releasing shadow energy from his body.

The Nightshadow Elves were able to control shadows precisely, which was why their energy was called Shadow energy even though it was only altered mana.

However, the degree of alteration reached a state where it could be considered new energy, just like the name suggested.

\'It\'s weaker than my dark energy, let alone the Darkness Essence. However, their rank is higher, which will make up for what the energy lacks…\' Nial thought before he shrugged inwardly.

\'Whatever, let\'s have some fun annoying a few brats! They\'re different from the High Elf brat… and they\'re in my territory now!\'
