The World Tree.
A legendary being who controls spaces and worlds.
Its physical location is the World of Elves, but it is not the main body. It would be more correct to say a copy.
After completing an assignment, Xie Qing was informed that the World Tree is one of the authorities.
Authority is a new term that Xie Qing learned.
These people can interfere in the System and give assignments. Their powers exceed the Z-level, so he is wary of them.
However, Xie Qing is sure of one thing: they cannot kill him, no matter how much they want to.
This certainty is not out of thin air, but because of a strong premonition. After all, a supernatural being has keen senses.
However, Xie Qing approached the World Tree. Instantly, the branches of the tree stirred and came down.
"Is that how he invites me?" Xie Qing nonchalantly stepped forward and stepped on a branch, rising into the air.
His distance from the ground diminished with every second, so the royal castle looked like a dot in his eyes.
Finally, Xie Qing reached such a height that the clouds blocked the entire view. He looked around carefully.
There was a small hut at the top of the World Tree, but Xie Qing could feel the terrifying aura inside it.
With slow steps he reached the hut and stepped inside.
Inside sat an elf with blond hair that flowed to the floor.
[You have met one of the Authority, the World Tree.]
A system message confirmed his thoughts. The World Tree, or a projection of it, smiled brightly.
"Welcome, user."
Even the world seemed to brighten with this elf's smile. His beauty was comparable to Xie Qing's.
The true difference was that Xie Qing had a more masculine beauty, while the elf's was toward the androgynous.
Xie Qing sat down in his chair and nodded slightly, not bothering to introduce himself.
"I suppose that's what you came for?" The elf grinned.
"Yes." Xie Qing replied with a serious face.
It was about Alfred.
The World Tree was most famous for his ability to control the flow of souls.
If the Tree keeps Alfred's soul inside it, he can return to his peak state in a hundred years.
Right now Alfred's soul looks like a cracked vase that could break at any moment.
However, if the soul is saturated with the life energy of the World Tree, recovery will not be so difficult.
"I understand." The elves smiled.
"Then..."
"There is, however, a condition."
Xie Qing pressed his lips together and listened intently to the elf. He (elf) smiled and pulled out a box.
When he opened it, Xie Qing smelled a strong floral scent, and inside lay a round pill.
The pill had a green color adorned with white patterns. One breath and Xie Qing felt satiated.
"This pill is called "Fate". If a woman drinks it before the act of copulation, her child has a 100% chance of being born a fairy."
"Fairy...?" Xie Qing tilted his head to the side.
Naturally, he had heard of them. They are mischievous children of the forest who like to tease travelers.
They tend the trees and the forest. They can be compared to the Guardians of the Abyss, for the work of these two races is the same.
Xie Qing, however, was puzzled.
"What is this for?"
"It's simple." The elf smiled sweetly. "One of your wives has to swallow this pill and give birth to a fairy."
Suddenly the atmosphere grew cold and Xie Qing's eyes glowed black. The energy of the Abyss ripped through space and time slowed down.
The elf sat peacefully, though you could see drops of cold sweat on his forehead.
"Calm down, please." The elf smiled tautly. "No one in the Authority wants your misfortune. I'm on that list, too."
Xie Qing squinted his eyes and a loud explosion sounded behind him. Severe distortions in space caused a backlash, making the Elf World shake.
Nana looked at the rabbit in her hand, which trembled with fear. At times, the ground trembled.
"Earthquake?"
Melissa and Aria looked around in wonder, and Lily frowned upward.
...
Xie Qing calmed his raging senses and snorted, removing the Abyss Energy. His gaze was fixed on the elf, as if waiting for his words.
Seeing that he had calmed down, the elf smiled and explained.
"The race of fairies died out four thousand years ago, when I entered the dream."
"They protect the forests from pests and help the elves."
The elf continued his story, in which Xie Qing learned many things. It turns out that fairies can draw strength from the World Tree and thus become stronger.
It is their duty to protect the forests and the races associated with the World Tree.
Also, the presence of fairies can strengthen the life force throughout space, so they are very much in demand.
However, Xie Qing did not think of letting his child take on the role of protector.
"I refuse." Xie Qing stood up and was about to leave.
"User."
Xie Qing turned his head and looked at the elf, who was smiling bitterly.
"Please listen. This is really important."
"..." Xie Qing squinted his eyes.
"If there are no fairies in the next hundred years, there will be an ejection of the laws of Nature."
Xie Qing stunned and opened his eyes wide.
An ejection of laws.
During the Ancient War, many concepts were destroyed and because of this, there were ejections of laws that practitioners can take control of.
However, what is a good opportunity for practitioners is a disaster for the world.
Laws shape the world and because of them one can live in stability and security, but if they get out of control...
The fate of Chaos will be repeated.
"When the Laws of Nature are thrown out, the Elves will suffer the most."
Xie Qing pondered. Putting the question from this angle, it's not so bad.
"Besides, your child will be the progenitor of the second generation of fairies."
"Even so, there's the matter of continuing the lineage..." Xie Qing squinted dangerously.
"There are only girls in the fairy race, and they are born from magical energy." The elf replied with a bitter smile.
"Hehe." Xie Qing finally nodded.
Ding!

Xie Qing turned and walked away. Soon his presence completely disappeared.
The World Tree shook its head and sighed. Suddenly a system window appeared in front of him.
[The First Authority "???" made an appointment.]
[Accept] / [Reject]
The elf suddenly turned serious and pressed the accept button.
