Name: Lauma
Race: Elemental
Species: Elemental King of Life
When Adrian saw Lauma's species, he was jumping for joy as he could get a boost in this so called Life energy. Adrian was observing the situation in front of him as he does not know what would happen. Lauma looked like a nature spirit as she had clothes made of vines and flowers. She also floated mid-air giving her an elegant yet mysterious quality to her presence.
"Thank you, Guider of Souls. You have liberated me from my accursed prison. I owe you a debt of gratitude." Lauma said as she looked at Adrian with her amber eyes.
"If you think that you will escape this place then you are gravely mistaken!" Cristobal shouted in anger as he tapped his scepter on the ground twice.
The muscle wall then suddenly started convulsing and moved closer towards them as if it wanted to crush them. The team started panicking especially Adrian as he was sure that they would immediately escape after he set the Elemental King free. Adrian did not want to demand an Elemental King on what they should do but he had to do something.
"Uhm! Miss Lauma can we escape now please?" Adrian asked with an anxious face.
"Do not worry guider. I do not have enough strength to kill that mad man as of yet but I still have enough power to send all of us away from here." Lauma said with a smile.
"Vayu and Soleil. Please come close to us as we are preparing to escape." Adrian said as he also sealed Saena as he did not want it to be trapped here.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe group huddled up together and a green light was made by Lauma's hands. The light then formed a sphere and enveloped every party member. All the party members then started hearing notifications as they get healed and buffed.
[You are inside of the Elemental King of Life's 'Life Saving Grace'.]
[You are recovering 100 health every second.]
[You are recovering 100 mana every second.]
[All your status conditions have been returned to normal.]
[You cannot be affected by status ailments when inside the sphere of influence of the skill 'Life Saving Grace.]
The party members were astounded by the effects of the skill as the backlash for using their ultimate skills have been washed away. Cristobal on the other hand was fuming with rage as he even casted another spell. Shadow tendrils emerged from his shadow and launched towards the group wanting to pierce them.
The Elemental king of Life, Lauma, just scoffed at the attack. She flicked her hand and the shadow tendrils were swatted like they were mere insects. This however did not deter Cristobal as he started chanting another spell and a summoning circle emerged on the flood which even Lauma could not help but furrow her brows.
"He is summoning an Abomination. It seems we need to quicken the process of our relocation." Lauma said as she looked at Adrian.
"So why are you looking at me for?" Adrian said as he was uncomfortable with the staring.
���You are a demon correct? I will need your assistance for a bit." Lauma said as she proceeded to hold Adrian's hand in which he blushed.
Adrian could feel that he was being transferred immense power. He could feel as if time and space itself stopped for him. He felt like with just a push of his hands, he could push the space in front of him. Lauma then sent a mental image of the location that she wanted to go to.
Adrian then focused on them "arriving" on that location and slowly but surely a magic circle of a violet color appeared below them. Their body started turning into particles of light. A little soul like entity also joined them on being transferred. Adrian did not mind as he knew the identity of that soul and he only smiled as he did not mind because it generated a mission for him.
Whoosh!
Lauma and the Free Wraith-kun party disappeared from Cristobal's view just as an entity was crawling out of the magic circle he made. Cristobal stopped his incantation which in turn forcibly cancelled the magic circle and a shriek was heard before the magic circle banished completely. The Abomination shrieked as if it was displeased but could not protest as his summoning circle was cancelled prematurely.
Cristobal stomped his feet and went insane as thing did not go in the end. He could only curse at the air as he himself is not a master of space magic. Also demon's manipulate space as if they were breathing so for Cristobal to follow them would cost a lot of magic power. If he did follow them then he should be ready for an ambush as he would charge into enemy territory.
"I will get you for this demon! I have remembered what you look like. You cannot hide from me forever!" Cristobal said.
In another realm, the party members and Lauma successfully arrived in one piece. They all sat down on the ground exhausted but their stamina bars are restored. They were exhausted mentally more so for Adrian as he did not believe his trick to work.
It was a good thing that Rewind would also recreate attacks in the area especially an attack that made use of a terrain. He now knows how to use Rewind as another skill to rewind terrain effect skills. It could even work on domain skills if he timed it properly.
When the party looked at where they were, only Adrian was amazed. Vayu and Soleil seemed to have a normal face on them as if they have been here before. Adrian looked towards Lauma because she started to speak to them.
"It seems some of you have been here but allow me to still welcome you to out place. Welcome to Alfheim." Lauma said with a smile on her face as it has been hundreds of years since she returned.
Adrian looked at the surroundings and inhaled deeply as the air was so fresh that it almost tasted sweet. He then saw a towering tree on the horizon and could not contain his curiosity to ask.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Elemental King of Life Lauma, what is that towering tree at that place? It feels familiar for some reason." Adrian asked.
"Lauma would be fine as you have saved me Guider of Souls. That would be a world tree or Yggdrassil if you wanted to be more specific. I believe I do not need to tell you what it does as you are the Champion of the Twin Gods." Lauma said with a bit of a giggle.
When Vayu and Soleil heard what the Elemental King said they were stunned. A player was actually chosen to be a champion of not one god but the twin gods. Soleil was amazed even more as she already admired the big brother in front of him greatly.
Adrian wanted to go closer towards the world tree but he was suddenly warned by Lauma.
"That would not be a good decision, Champion Equinox. Even if we share this realm with the faekin that does not mean we would be gladly welcomed. Plus, I think I do not need to tell you how mischievous they can be." Lauma warned.
"If I chose the faekin then this would have been my starting point instead of the Paradox Planes. Does that mean that the five races have their own designated realm? If each realm is as beautiful as this then I would like to see each of them." Adrian thought.
A few moments later, a tornado suddenly landed a few meters beside them but they were not sucked towards it nor felt the wind pressure. A few feet away from the tornado, cracks started to appear from the ground and fire erupted. The tornado stopped and from it appeared a man. The fire erupting also stopped and from it a woman appeared.

The two elemental kings manifested before them and suddenly hugged Lauma. The two even started crying but instead of tears, the wind became erratic and the temperature became a bit higher. Even Lauma who was surprised at first started bawling her eyes out but instead of tears a calming wave of refreshing feeling assaulted the three party member's body. The grass and flowers nearby even started growing lusher. It was as if the elements were in disarray as this should not be a natural phenomenon.
A few minutes later, the three elemental kings suddenly realized that they were not alone and had visitors. The three then tried to straighten their attires (it was not possible since they were made of the elements themselves) and acted as if the previous event did not happen at all. They even had a squinty eyed smiling face as if they are telling the three, "You guys saw nothing. Nothing at all."
