Chapter 108 Healing And Submission

Name:Deus: We are all Lords Author:
Standing beside the throne, Kingsley could see Euroa… her aura way less than when he initially met her and like the World tree, he could smell decay in her. He didn't know what sort of connection she had with the World tree but it seemed as though her curse was affecting the World Tree

"Greetings, your excellency" Euroa said with a bow

"As you were… you are still the monarch of this nation" Kingsley said as he walked past her and on to the throne,

Without even hesitating or questioning her, Kingsley sat down on the throne and almost instantly he felt an even deeper connection to the World tree. It was almost as though he and the Tree were one, he now understood why Euroa used a Wooden throne, this entire room was at the center of the World tree's roots.

Her territory was marked by the World Tree's ever expansive roots, like his own throne that allowed him have a view of everything that belonged to him, the wooden throne allowed her to see all areas of the territory as long as the surface roots reached such an area.

The Thrones did what they did best and took positions around him to protect him and Viktor positioned his Archdemons outside the throne room then took his position beside Euroa who was still standing watching Kingsley whose eyes were now closed as he viewed both the World Tree and the territory in depth.

"Hmm… you two are one, aren't you?" Kingsley asked as soon as he opened his eyes

"Yes"

"You Monarchs are just weird" Kingsley said as he rubbed his forehead a bit

All the Fae he had come across embodied one part of nature and Euroa who he had initially thought to be a separate entity from the World tree embodied the Forests or just the concept of it but to find out that she was the World Tree was sort of weird. It was even more weird when the person herself referred to the tree as Mother.

"Anyway, it's weird knowing that you are just complying this easily, a normal ruler would have put up some form of resistance even if it's just a show of power" Kingsley said since her attitude was weird by every standard

"I have no choice, i just want my people to be safe… they are all i have"

"I see… this feels weird, what exactly happened to you" Kingsley asked since he could feel the dark energy in her and it was making him feel weird

"My territory covers the entire Aenon Forest and the forest once reached far into the Dead lands however an unknown monarch with an unnatural power appeared one day and began to corrupt the land…'

"That's enough, i get the gist… this unknown monarch is he or she dead by any chance"

"No, my lord, he managed to escape"

"Excellent… a good justification as to why we are taking their territory and also do you want to fight him again?"

"My lord, I am a Nature god, the Fae are best at protection however attacking is an entirely different matter"

"Okay then… Viktor tell Athena that she is to follow the original plan, I want that territory within next week" Kingsley ordered

"As you wish your majesty"

The only reason why he had taken so long to take each undead was initially because they didn't know what to expect however after second city, it was clear that the undead used their numbers and invincibility to their advantage. The only other reason was a more recent one and that because he wanted to get Euroa's opinion after all he had promised her a rematch.

His original plan was simply to take the entire Dead lands before he focused on the Alliance but Euroa had surrendered before he could take the Dead Lands so he now had to consider their own feelings towards the area since they were his subordinates. He had access to thousands of soldiers and just ten of them was more than enough to destroy an entire city

He could simply get the location of each city and send a team for every city and by the next day, he would have the entire Deadlands under his possession by the next day or considering the Undead have a Monarch too, a week. Now that plan could be carried out.

"Now then back to you" Kingsley said as his hands suddenly began to glow brightly

Using his powers, Kingsley began healing the tree. Like Solaris whose real body was the Sun and Luna whose real body was the moon, Euroa's real body was the tree so to heal her. He had to heal the tree, since Euroa was a woman who ruled over a portion of life so trying to inject life energy into wasn't the way.

Kingsley reached deep into the essence of the powerful tree to search for the cause of the problem. That didn't take long though because half of the lady's essence was rotten. With how injured she was, Kingsley wondered how intense the battle must have been and in what condition the loser of the battle was.

"That guy really did a number on you... Viktor if you will" Kingsley said as Viktor stepped forward with a small syringe filled with Aspirin

KIngsley doubted that the Aspirin could heal such injuries however he wanted to try and see if it could truly cure all or if it was only limited to physical problems. Viktor walked up to Euroa who was looking at him skeptically. The lack of trust could be seen but neither of them cared much about it.

Viktor injected the drug into Euroa's arm and almost instantly, Kingsley saw a massive change in her. The rot began to recede but it didn't go away, Euroa's aura became stringer and her main body the tree, itself grew in size. It was clear that the Aspirin had worked but it had done its best so Kingsley focused on the rot and began to erase what was left of it.

Within minutes, it was all gone and Euroa could be seen kneeling on the group, gasping for air but her aura was now as strong as Kingsley expected a Monarch's to be. Under his view, Kingsley saw the tree begin to grow and increase in size. Kingsley felt an incredibly refreshing aura burst out of the tree and spread all over the planet as though she was announcing her presence.

"That was a dangerous move but anyway, as promised… you are now fully healed" Kingsley said as the lady bowed

"Thank you, your majesty"

"So, what about the others, will they be surrendering or do i have to force them to do so" Kingsley asked since there were three other rulers that made up the Alliance

"They are on their way, your majesty"

"Okay then we wait" Kingsley said as he waved his hand and a long table with other wooden thrones by its side appeared

He had done so in preparation because this was to be a meeting, it could have taken place in his territory but he wanted to leave said city for once. He had never it ever since he came this world. Even the other lords had seen the world outside their territories though not much but they were free to move around.

Unlike them, he couldn't leave his territory and until now, his territory only covered more and more forest but now, there were cities within his territory so he wanted to see it. Besides apart from the fact that he just wanted to see around, he felt it would be better to host said meeting in territory that the other kings were familiar with.

Of course, the location of the next meeting would be his territory and by then, they would have all surrendered to him so he will know that they were all his people. Kingsley and the group waited for a few minutes before the other kings arrived. They all watched as the three pale beings walked into the throne room.

Knowing their position, they didn't sit outright instead, they all stood and bowed towards kingsley indicating their position towards him. Since there was no hostility being shown, the Thrones remained silent but their presence was more than enough to unnerve the kings.

"I'm glad you all could make it but before we go any further, I would like to have the confirmation if you are submitting to me or not, I don't like to waste much time" Kingsley asked without any hesitation

"We surrender!!" A three announced at the same time and immediately the system acknowledged it as the system message appeared and his territory was increased by another 1500 acres of land

This meant that his territory now covered a total of at least 3000 acres or 1214 hectares or three central parks in New York city. it was a massive area for one person to own, will take you at least 2 hours to walk through that is if this was just a straight line which it wasn't.
