Chapter 83-1: - Heavenly Spirit Tree’s Ascension Day (2)
In the midst of the primeval mountain range stood the towering World Tree, Cradle of the Heavenly Spirit Tree.
The elves and fairies firmly held onto the title of Cradle of the Heavenly Spirit Tree for that place.
Regarding the Cradle of the Heavenly Spirit Tree, there was a saying that jokingly circulated among the fanbase of the original romance fantasy novel.
If you plan to do business in the Cradle of the Heavenly Spirit Tree, exclude construction and real estate. Then you'll definitely succeed.
The reason was quite simple: The Heavenly Spirit Tree itself grew branches and built houses for the spirits that came into its embrace.
In other words, the elves had no worries about housing.
However, it would be a mistake to think that they lived in haphazardly woven branch nests.
"Wow..."
"This is a city truly built by the will of the Heavenly Spirit Tree...?"
After arriving at the capital of the Elven Nation, the Cradle of the Heavenly Spirit Tree, known as the Skyflower Haven, Stellas students were given some free time.
This was because they were scheduled to participate in the Heavenly Spirit Tree's Ascension Day.
Of course, that was just an excuse.
To be honest, Edna thought of this schedule as something similar to a university field trip.
They couldn't drink and have fun, but it was a measure taken by the academy to allow the students to freely explore the city with their friends to relieve their stress.

Waterfalls cascaded down from the branches of the Heavenly Spirit Tree hanging at the edge of the sky.
At the intersection where the waterfall split into two streams, a large bridge was laid, and on either side, mansions reminiscent of apartments stood tall.
The original novel described the capital, Skyflower Haven, like this: Hundreds of gigantic tree trunks filled the world. And every tree trunk bore houses like fruits.
While human cities spread horizontally on flat ground, elven cities expanded vertically as well.
As a result, they had a considerable number of stairs. They were not necessarily for the elves, but they were built in consideration for outsiders.
It was said that those with poor physical stamina found it challenging to even tour the Skyflower Haven.
*Sigh!*
A window of a cabin located above opened, and a young elf looked down in that direction.
Just as the elven city fascinated Stellas people, the reverse was also true.
Considering the fact that a magical warrior like Edna received the treatment of a hero among civilians and didnt appear casually, it must be a remarkable sight to see so many students from the world's top magical warrior academy gathered here.
Edna smiled warmly and waved at the children, causing them to shyly hide their faces.
"They're cute. Even elven children are adorable."
"That's right, that's right."
The girls chattered excitedly.
How often would they have the opportunity to visit the Heavenly Spirit Tree in their lifetime?
Even if they were nobles, such opportunities were rare.
"It feels rejuvenating..."
Everywhere was filled with homes, nature, and fortresses.
Truly a fantastic city of elves.
The modern elves pursued an intellectual life, so there was nothing lacking in this place.
Starting with the academy as the centre, the city had various shops such as weapon stores, bars, hair salons, cosmetic shops, nail art studios, handicrafts, and flower gardens.
Recently, even human food trends like barbecue and hot pot had become popular.
The protagonist who played a key role in causing the elves to quickly adopt foreign culture was none other than Eltman Eltwin, the principal of Stella Academy.
"What's the matter?"
"You're not showing me that face you had earlier?"
"What face?"
This situation made her very uncomfortable. She wanted to avoid getting involved with Jeremy, but how did it end up like this?
"..."
"..."
**Puff! Puff!**
Jeremy stayed five paces away from Edna, and smiled gleefully as he just looked at her. It seemed like even just making eye contact brought him joy.
"What's the matter? Hurry up and tell me your business."
"Ah."
Then, as if belatedly realizing something, he paused for a moment. After a moment of ponder, he hastily said, "The weather is nice today, isn't it?"
"No, it's damn gloomy."
The sky was clear without a single cloud.
"How about having a meal together? I know a place with a great view."
"I'm full, so I'll eat alone."
"How about a simple walk?"
"I don't want to."
"There's a pet cafe over there."
"I don't like cute things."
Impenetrable defense.
"Well then..."
Just as Jeremy was about to say more, someone blocked their path.
A sharp-looking boy with jet-black hair, and red amber eyes.
"... Haewonryang?"
"Prince. Leave it at that. Are you aware that your actions are quite rude and overbearing?"
"Haha, what's with the sudden talk? Why don't you just butt out and quietly disappear?"
As Jeremy spoke with a smile, ordinary people would naturally avert their gaze and avoid him.
However, it wouldnt work on someone who stood at the pinnacle of the magical world as the successor of the Magic Tower.
**Crack!**
As the two boys locked eyes in a staring contest, Edna could only be caught in the middle.
*'Damn, why are these crazy guys like this?'*
It felt like a scene straight out of a cheesy romance novel she used to read in elementary school.
Before she could even think it was childish, she was dumbfounded.
*'Have I ever had any weird encounters with them? I can't think of any.'*
Haewonryang had always just been friends with both boys and girls in a normal way. Jeremy's attempts at conversation were nothing but inviting insults and curses.
*I don't know.*
Edna was a complete novice when it came to romance in the first place.
*How am I supposed to handle this? Damn, this is driving me crazy!'*
While Edna was tearing her hair out, Jeremy made the first move. ",
