The sacred tree broke through the deep and dark clouds again.
The branches extend and grow crazily above the clouds, and green buds poke out from above, blooming into emerald green leaf cores.
The huge, thick and bronze trunk is covered with messy and hard branches.
Under the golden light, there was a bright flash of light that was as bright as hope.
The elves were stunned in place.
Shock and surprise quickly spread throughout the crowd like a plague.
Their eyes were wide open and their lips were parted.
For a moment, they didn't know whether they should be grateful for the return of the sacred tree, or whether they should kneel down and worship.
In their eyes, the newly born sacred tree no longer has the familiar gentleness of its mother.
The sacred tree was obviously resurrected, but these elves felt like they were not really alive and lifeless.
Even the emerald green and bronze on the surface look fake.
At this time, a stream of lava melted the space, revealing an extremely huge red tunnel.
The terrifying heat instantly swept through the entire forest.
The eyes of countless elves were attracted.
I saw the man in a windbreaker walking out of the hot tunnel.
Kokot followed Victor, sitting on the clouds and floating slowly.
Weniya was behind the two of them, her eyes darting around, biting her lip, and the muscles on her face twitched slightly.
The thing she wore just now.
Can it really be called a portal?
Obviously she couldn't feel any scorching temperature in it, but she still felt lingering fear.
Venia turned back and looked at the tunnel flowing with magma.
The lava falls slowly to the ground, colliding with the dew on the grassy surface.
A tiny white mist suddenly exploded, and the lava solidified, forming black stones that were exposed on the grass and led directly to the bottom of the sacred tree.
The elves looked at a dark gravel road, not daring to breathe.
For fear that one of the pieces of lava would break.
Victor looked at Venia and said lightly:
"Now, just like you did before."
"Offer your natural energy to the sacred tree."
Weniya listened to Victor's order, straightened her expression, and placed one hand tightly on her chest.
Carefully, he walked across the black gravel road and stood in front of the sacred tree.
She slowly placed her hand on the sacred tree, and the bronze trunk gradually began to twist.
Fluorescent green natural energy overflowed from her palm and followed the lines of the giant tree.
That touch of green quickly passed through the entire bronze trunk and began to spread towards the entire sacred tree.
Those illuminated lines gradually moved toward the tree crown, passed through the clouds, and quickly gathered toward the center of the top branches.
The tender green branches and buds grow rapidly with the blessing of natural energy.
A transparent and crystal-clear fruit slowly moves to the top of the trunk, absorbing green energy as if being held by someone from the top of the tree crown.
The sacred tree began to shake violently, and a strong light burst out instantly, illuminating the entire prosperous forest.
The elves covered their eyes and saw through the gaps between their fingers that powerful energy rippled out to the surroundings, and new branches and buds around them grew again.
This is a wave of energy full of vitality, and this light is like hope.
I don’t know how many years have passed.
Since Kokot left, they have never seen the sacred tree emit such a dazzling light.
Finally, the green fruit at the top gathered enough energy and slowly burst.
A strong light spot fell from the sky like a clear spring, and a familiar breath instantly spread throughout the entire elf population.
Weniya looked shocked, but soon it turned into surprise.
Under the gaze of all the elves,
The first elf was born.
The branches at the top of the sacred tree began to open and close, and an elf emerged from the dense canopy.
The whole body was covered by emerald green leaves, revealing a large area of skin as white as a lotus root.
The pink cherry mouth opened and closed, breathing smoothly and evenly.
And the iconic long pointed ears...
To the elves, this event, like a miracle, happened.
The elves were shocked. Countless curious and doubtful eyes looked up and down at the newborn elf, their eyes full of intimacy.
Even Viniya couldn't control her expression and opened her mouth wide.
Because this elf, strictly speaking...
She gave birth to it! ?
Damn it, I became a queen? ? ?
Kokot was extremely satisfied when he saw the scene in front of him, and nodded sharply aside.
Now, she doesn't have to continue to be the Elf Queen.
Venia walked forward carefully and tentatively stood in front of the newborn elf.
She could feel that the natural energy in this elf came from the same source as herself.
Because the elf in front of him was born from the natural energy of his own sacrifice.
Weniya's body trembled a little, and she stretched out her hand tremblingly:
"Child, you...what's your last name?"
According to the process, the new elves will be given a surname by the sacred tree.
After learning the surname, the high priest will give her a name and arrange for her a career corresponding to her surname.
Although Venia hasn't done this kind of thing for a long time - since Kokot left.
In the decades after Kokot left, not a single new elf appeared.
And she is the first new elf born in these decades.
The new elf was very confused and looked at Venia.
Seeing Weniya reaching out her hand, she grabbed Weniya's arm and pressed it against her body.
There was also an expression of great enjoyment and peace of mind on his face.
Venia's heart trembled, and her whole body was stiff and unable to move.
But the elf still rubbed her arm tightly, and the warm touch reached the tip of her heart.
Since Venia was born, she has been responsible for delivering other newborn elves.
She has never seen an elf so close to her.
The elves do come from the same origin and are very close to each other.
But she has never seen anyone so close to each other.
It has completely attached to my body.
"Obviously, you haven't understood the concept of family."
At some point, Victor walked quietly behind Weniya.
He put his hands in his pockets and spoke calmly.
Weniya turned around suddenly:
"Hey-? Home, family?"
Yes, elves don’t know what family is.
In the system of elf society, all elves are born through the energy of the queen.
Elf society is more like a simple collection.
Each one has the "bloodline" of the Elf Queen, and each one can be called family.
Strictly speaking, because the Elf Queen has always been waiting quietly in the sacred tree.
As a result, when the elves were born, they never saw what the "mother" who gave birth to them looked like.
Therefore, they will mistakenly regard the sacred tree as the "mother" who gave birth to them.
Superimpose that feeling of closeness onto the Yade Sacred Tree.
They will begin to worship the sacred tree like other elves, and pray to the Elf Queen, hoping to create more elves.
Without the concept of mother, elves would naturally not call each other family.
Because they only have one common mother, which is the sacred tree.
And now, after the appearance of this new elf.
Things will change.
Every elf is born by the producer himself, and the same natural energy is the "bloodline" where blood is thicker than water for the elf.
Therefore, the newborn elves will have an absolute closeness to their producers.
"Congratulations, now you are her mother."
After Victor's words fell, Venia was stunned in place, looking back like a fool, looking at the newborn elf holding her forearm, not wanting to be separated from her at all.
"Eh, ah, ah!?"
Weniya's mind went blank, and her eyes became extremely dull.
He opened his mouth wide and let out an uncontrollable exclamation.
But Victor didn't care about her shock and continued:
"Also, it's time for you to name her."
Weniya was stunned:
"But she doesn't have a last name yet..."
"What her last name is depends on what your last name is."
After hearing this, Weniya was even more stunned, her pupils dilated slightly, and her expression became a little unacceptable.
Because her last name is unique...
Wait a moment?
As if she had realized something, she continued to listen to Victor.
"I said, don't look at your new world with the common sense of the past. The Yade Sacred Tree is dead.
"You, and the other elves."
"Your surnames no longer have any constraints. They will only become your names and give meaning to the existence of your family."
"That's all."
Weniya froze in place, listening to Victor's story, and then turned her head blankly:
"So, you're just like me."
"Their surname is...Jekdela..."
She looked at the lovely elf in front of her with eyes full of expectation, and felt a strong and inexplicable impulse in her heart.
When she realized that this child had the same last name as her.
Suddenly, Weniya had an urge to protect her.
She subconsciously reached out and stroked the top of the elf's head. The reborn elf enjoyed it very much and rubbed against Venia's palm.
"From now on, you will call..."
"Melina, it's okay."
For the first time, Weniya had a different emotion about giving a name.
No longer citing "work" as an excuse, but truly wanting to give an elf a real name, a name full of soul and love.
At this moment, Weniya was filled with joy.
The other elves were also silent without saying a word, as if they were silently celebrating the arrival of the new elf.
Let this forest of elves, which has been silent for a long time, become full of life again.
Leon also raised his head and looked at the extremely happy scene in front of him, with a bit of envy in his eyes.
If she had been in this same situation when she was born, would it be...
Will her experience also change?
"..."
What are you thinking about?
At that time, Victor was not even born yet.
She lowered her head quietly, not wanting the elves to see her expression.
But I only heard a sharp voice coming in my ears again
"What, are you envious?"
