Celestial Bloodline

One year later, in the outside world, far away from the No Mana Land. Inside a colossal and one of the largest planets in the universe, distinguished by a massive and expansive tree that dominated nearly half of the planet's surface. The tree stood so tall that its branches had surpassed the layer of clouds and could be spotted from outside the boundaries of the planet.

But regrettably, its leaves had begun to wither, showing signs of darkness creeping through its branches, a consequence of the ongoing war between the elven race and the demon race that had persisted for an extended period on that planet. The demon race wanted to corrupt the tree, known as the 'Tree of Fate', that bore the 'Fruit of Fate' every thousand years.

It was because their current leader desired the tree to produce the 'Fruit of Darkness' instead of fate to help her reach the final stage of Supreme-rank. This achievement would secure her the esteemed title of the sixth shadow general.

On the other hand, the elven race valiantly protected the stree as it has been guiding them with its pure spiritual power over generations. Moreover, every ta child was born in the elven race, they would receive the tree's blessings and would undoubtedly awaken high talent.

That's why the elven race believed in the sacred significance of the 'Tree of Fate', and the precious 'Fruit of Fate' it produced was protected by them with their lives. Still, neither the elven side nor the demon side was winning because both sides had powerful figures fighting for them.

However, as tpassed, the ongoing war had begun to affect the tree, causing it to lose its strength. Not to mention, the tfor the tree to bear the fruit of fate was approaching, so the demon race had started to fight with even more vigor. This was because their current leader had started to becimpatient, fearing that the fruit would be lost.

This was indeed worrying for the elven race, but it was manageable because the elven race wasn't weak, considering that 'PlLuminara', the very plthat housed the tree of fate, was their main planet. That's why their population was high, and many powerful, old elven residents could resist the demon race and safeguard the tree.

Amidst all this, who could have imagined that a shocking news would reach the ears of the elven race while they were already engaged in constant battles.

The news revealed that the first shadow general had fled from the war occurring on the other side of the universe after a supreme-rank individual from the human race severely injured him. Now he also wanted the fruit of fate to heal his wounds and enhance his power.

To discuss this very news, a meeting was held among the many strong elf leaders who had returned after overcoming another wave of the demon race, intent on destroying a portion of the tree of fate. The meeting took place in a spacious room furnished with numerous chairs surrounding a round table.

They discussed about the first shadow general and the need to implement safety measures by recalling all their powerful fellow elves who had left the plto join the war occurring on the other side of the universe. After the discussion concluded, everyone started to leave the room.

Among them were females and males, old and young elves, but they all shared a common feature — the insignia on their clothing that showcased a graceful tree with intricate branches and leaves.

After a while, only two elven woman remained in the room. One was a middle aged woman seated at the end of the round table, and the other was an older woman with features that seemed to indicate she was in the final stage of life, occupying the authoritative seat at the table.

The middle-aged woman let out a yawn as she gazed at the older woman.

"My Queen, what's the matter this time? Why did you stopwhen everyone had left? I already told you I'm not joining the war for a while. I'm close to a breakthrough and aiming for the next rank."

The older woman sighed and gazed at Glacia, who was one of the strongest warriors of her race. She was the current Queen of the elven race since her husband, the king, had passed away.

The Queen didn't mind Glacia's disrespect and had grown accustomed to it because the entire elven race was like a family to her. However, she feared that one day Glacia might regret her behavior. After Glacia's master passed away, she only cared child from and why she hates us so much when we are of the srace."

about herself and had accumulated many enemies over the years.

The Queen shook her head as she had already tried to reason with Glacia to steer clear of trouble, as it could potentially harm their entire race in the future, but her efforts were in vain despite numerous attempts. That's why she didn't mince her words and went straight to the point.

"Just tell me, how's that girl you brought with you a year ago doing right now? Also, you never toldwhere you got that child from and why she hates us so much when we are of the srace."

Glacia's face reflected nothing as she leaned back in her chair.

"You mean Yue? Well, this little troublemaker has quite the attitude, huh? She doesn't hate the elven race. She hatesbecause I forced her to chere."

She let out a snicker.

"Does she really think I would have bothered with such a weakling and gone to such lengths to bring her here if I wasn't bound by the promise I made with my late master?"

The Queen rubbed her forehead in frustration as the pair of bronze eyes stared at her with annoyance. She let out a bit of her pressure to make Glacia understand that she was serious.

"Just tellhow that child is doing. I saw her for the first twhen she chere, but I have been busy lately and haven't had tto visit her."
