Entry Editing: Loyal Succubus Nun

"A second Elf Mother Tree sapling?" A look of utter disbelief appeared on Su Xuan’s face as he heard Paslo’s statement.

As a being that transcended even Demigods, the Elf Mother Tree was a unique life form. Only the legendary World Tree could compare to it.

However, Paslo’s words struck Su Xuan like a clap of thunder, shattering his understanding. ’There’s a second Elf Mother Tree sapling in the Dark Forbidden Forest?’

"Mhm~"

Paslo nodded slightly and began to explain to Su Xuan, "When I left the Elf Kingdom, I took a shoot from the Elf Mother Tree with me to help the Dark Elves find a suitable place to live. It was just an attempt at the time, but I never expected the shoot to actually take root in this land."

"I watered it with my own blood and successfully nurtured a second Elf Mother Tree sapling. Using its power, I created the Dark Forbidden Forest that exists today."

Hearing this, Su Xuan’s brow furrowed.

He was shocked that this Dark Forbidden Forest was a miracle created by Paslo using the Elf Mother Tree sapling.

Su Xuan thought for a moment, then looked up at Paslo and asked, "If I take that Elf Mother Tree sapling away, what will happen to the Dark Elves...?"

"It’s no matter~"

Paslo waved her hand, signaling for Su Xuan not to worry. "If you can truly lead the Dark Elves back to the Elf Kingdom, then this sapling will lose its purpose."

"As the progenitor of the Elves, the Elf Mother Tree gave us our Fallen dark Power. It must also have the Tolerance to accept us Dark Elves."

"I understand." Su Xuan nodded slightly, committing Paslo’s words to memory.

"However~" Paslo offered another resigned smile. "I know Tinas’s personality. She will never agree to let the Dark Elves keep their Fallen Power. Convincing her will be no easy task."

Su Xuan said, "Perhaps she’s changed her views over the past few thousand years?"

"If only people’s views changed that easily~" Paslo shook her head with a wry smile, not paying Su Xuan’s words much mind.

Su Xuan lowered his head, lost in thought.

He didn’t have complete confidence that he could change the Elf Queen’s mind either. But he believed the Elf Queen had always been searching for the best way to resolve the conflict between the Elves and the Dark Elves.

"Um..."

Just then, Paslo broke the silence somewhat awkwardly. "Can you let go now? It’s starting to hurt..."

"Huh?"

Su Xuan snapped back to his senses, realized his hand was still pressed firmly on the Black Rabbit, and quickly let go!

Ahem~

’Then again, Paslo was the one who grabbed his wrist and forced his hand onto the Black Rabbit.’

’But he had been so lost in thought that his entire hand had sunk into the Black Rabbit...’

"Since the ceremony is over, can we leave now?" Su Xuan asked after helping Paslo wrap a bandage.

"Mhm~"

Paslo nodded slightly, her brilliant, star-like eyes looking directly at Su Xuan as her tone softened with a hint of gentleness. "Are you aware of the message the Elf Queen had Alina deliver to me?"

"I don’t know anything about it." Su Xuan shook his head, a flash of curiosity in his eyes. "I’m guessing the Elf Queen wants to meet with you?"

"Not quite." Paslo smiled charmingly and explained in a soft, gentle voice, "She isn’t ready to meet with me yet. She just hoped I could do her a small favor."

"A favor?"

A look of surprise appeared on Su Xuan’s face.

"She wants me to return the Semi-Divine Artifact stored in the Dark Elf tribe to the Elf Kingdom. It’s to stabilize the outer Magic Barrier of the Elf Kingdom and defend against the threat of the Undead Legion." Paslo explained the Elf Queen’s intentions to Su Xuan in detail.

"So that’s why."

Su Xuan murmured softly, gaining a new understanding of the relationship between the Elf Queen and Paslo.

’Clearly, the Elf Queen had once entrusted this Semi-Divine Artifact to Paslo, intending for it to protect the Dark Elves who had left their home.’

’After all, with the Elf Queen’s Mercy and Kindness, even if the Dark Elves had betrayed their tribe, she wouldn’t want to see them bullied by other Races.’

’So she had given a Semi-Divine Artifact to Paslo to protect those displaced Dark Elves.’

’But now, the Elf Kingdom was facing a crisis that could lead to its destruction.’

’At this critical juncture, the Elf Queen had no choice but to ask Paslo to return the Semi-Divine Artifact...’

"But—"

Just then, Paslo’s voice cut through Su Xuan’s thoughts. "She probably didn’t expect that I would deliver the Semi-Divine Artifact back to the Elf Kingdom in person. I’m looking forward to seeing the look on her face when she sees me again~"

"?"

Su Xuan was momentarily stunned by Paslo’s words.

But he immediately realized what was going on. ’This must be Alina’s mischievous idea!’

’Only she would come up with such a gloating scheme.’

"It’s about time. The ceremony should be declared over."

Paslo slowly stood up. Just as she was about to dispel the black curtain enveloping the ceremonial grounds, a gentle smile graced her breathtakingly beautiful face.

"Oh, right~ Before we finish, I think you might need to take care of something..."

Paslo said, pointing to a certain spot on Su Xuan and leaving him with a baffling hint.

"?"

Su Xuan looked down, and his expression instantly turned grave.

Because he had been so engrossed in the ceremony, he had almost forgotten about his brightly shining Holy Light, which was now radiating an even more dazzling glow than before.

The abnormal brightness made him question himself. ’There really is something seriously wrong with my XP!’
