Chapter 1473: A Brighter Future?

Luminous had investigated many things, amongst them was the power of the current Demon King leading the revolution of Demons into the world, who sought Fertile Lands to conquer and make his kin prosper, an obstacle I would need to tackle down to reach my destiny, the Cosmic Staircase which will allow me to go back to my world (maybe).

“He is roughly the strongest in the world at this point. Of course, that doesn’t mean that if various armies try to stop them he will win against them all, but he’s definitely strong… very strong.”

“How strong?!”

“W-Well… You’re around… a third of him?”

“Huh, that’s… well? Not so bad? I guess I just have to continue leveling up… Maybe killing his army and the other demon lords might do it.”

“A-Are you serious about this?”

“Yeah, I can’t really say “no” to this and just ignore it, I have to go back to my world after all, at all costs.”

“Hmph… Well, I wish I could accompany you further but I must protect the forest…” Sighed the White Dragon. “It was short, but you’re so unique that I think I’ll never be able to forget you, Kireina.” He laughed.

“Haha, thanks for being of so much help, Luminous. I hope you can protect the world as the last God, I have high hopes on you, don’t disappoint me.” I said.

“I won’t.” He said with a confident nod.

“So you’re truly going to infiltrate demon territory?” Asked the king. “Then take this.”

The King suddenly threw me something I caught using Telekinesis, it was a strange transparent orb, when I looked at it, it suddenly absorbed a tiny quantity of mana and showed a whole map of the entire land! Wow, what’s this?!

“This is the Map of the Mainland, a treasure that has incommensurable value. It shows the Mainland Continent in great detail and even where you’re standing, and where you can go. The Demon’s Rotten Lands are to the North, you can use several routes shown there to reach it. It is all up to you after that, but take this treasure as a gift of gratitude for what you’ve done for us.”

“Amazing… Thanks a lot, King!”

“I also have a gift for you, Kireina. Please, take this.” The Queen said, as she gave me a strange golden ring.

“This ring is…?”

“This is the Ring of Aeon, a Ring forged by a God of Light. It possesses the power of guiding people towards their fate and destiny, it also grants mysterious powers. It was only worn by legendary heroes of the past… I want you to hold it, even if you go to another world. It will guide you to your destiny and fate, no matter where you are, and no matter how lost you might be.”

“Queen… Thanks, this really helps.”

“It is the least I could do… I truly apologize for my rudeness yesterday… I wasn’t being me.”

“No, don’t worry, everything is already cleared up.”

“Haha, you’re so easy to please…”

Elfina was in tears because I was leaving as well. However, I found her suddenly changing clothes and getting a white-colored armor over her body, while also carrying a magic sword and wearing tons of magical accessories and equipment, enhancing her poor physique and magical power through the roof… wow, so this is the power of being rich, she’s like Elf Batman.

“I am going too! Sniff… No way I am leaving my summon to go alone in this journey! Sniff…” She was still being a crybaby and crying.

“Eh?! But you’ll surely die! No way! You can’t!” I said, looking at the King and the Queen, who were in tears as well… but not stopping her.

“Sniff… My daughter had grown so much, she’ll be the hero!” Said the King.

“Kireina, please take care of her!” Said the Queen.

“Are you okay with letting her stick with me?!” I asked.

“Of course, you’re her summon, there’s no way the summoner will be apart from the summon!” Laughed the King.

“Yeah!” Said the Queen cheerfully.

Luminous looked at me with a bored expression.

“I tried to stop them but there’s no helping it…” He sighed.

“Okay…” I sighed. “Well… Just make sure to not get in front of any trouble, okay? I won’t go around babysitting you, Elfina!”

“I am not a baby! I am strong, these accessories and equipment will be enough to give me an edge against hostile demons. Of course, I also want to follow your philosophy, Kireina. My primary goal in this journey is to find a way to make peace treaties with the demons!”

“What? Really?”

I was left shocked, this just came out of nowhere. Since when did the elves had such a big change of heart?

“We had a change of heart after yesterday’s incident, your words truly hit us hard.” Said the King.

“After we saw how far demons would go for their own survival, we realized that being greedy about our own lands is not something that we should do… We must do better than the ancient gods, if we share and protect the fertile lands together… there might be a way to prosper towards a brighter future.” Said the Queen.

“It sounds childish, but… I also really want to trust into the future you’ve envisioned, Kireina.” Said the King.

“What future?! I just said a rant out of nowhere and you think I am envisioning a whole future around it?!” I asked.

“Hahaha, you’re always so funny with your jokes!” Laughed the Queen.

“Anyways, if things get bad, we’ll send reinforcements and troops to help Elfina, so don’t worry too much, we got you covered.” Said the King.

“And of course, I am also going.” Said Fiere with a confident smirk. “I know how to cook, clean, and everything else, and I am a competent fighter and magician, I will protect Princess Elfina while you’re busy, Lady Kireina.”

“Well… I guess that’s more reassuring to be honest, if I got you in the team, it is not so bad now…” I sighed.

And like that, a journey towards the Land of Demons began… I wonder what wacky shenanigans will ensue!

…

I hope none, I am tired of them, I just want to go back home…
