Chapter 420 Isolet, Alvine's sister.

420  Isolet, Alvine's sister.

After leaving Fy, Alvine teleports to the depths of the forest; to the other side of the globe.

But despite being in the middle of the monsters' territory, none of them was visible on the forest's edge that was ending.

In front of him was an ice field as far as the eye could see as if it were winter and spring that were overlapping where he stood.

"This planet's big, but I had had time to go around before. And according to my memories, it's divided into four major areas, with a few sub-areas.

-The place where my palace's located is the most habitable area for humans and most creatures with a low constitution.

-Then, it's the Arctic area going on a few hundred thousand KM in front of me. The place where the cold ends, is the volcanic zone following. And finally, the endless sea.

-I should perhaps visit the creatures housing these places; especially the underwater breeds and these arrogant lizards that were strong enough to entertain me at the time. Sigh, I wonder if they're still there." He spoke alone like a madman who addressed his imaginary friends, but the most disappointing thing was that no one was present to be wary of him.

"However, let's first break the seal which imprisons Elena." He leaves all his nostalgic thoughts aside and crosses the icy zone that housed other races as dangerous as in his memories; ice elves.

After ten minutes of aimless walking, he arrives in front of a tree thirty times gigantic as Reha's body.

The tree had crystalline white leaves that tinkled like glasses.

Arriving under the tree, Alvine manifests his abysmal black aura that made the surroundings and branches of the tree tremble.

But strangely, the tree hadn't lost any leaf; it was mysterious for a tree with such size.

But Alvine didn't seem to be surprised by this anomaly.

After the three seconds that followed, a small light manifests itself on one of the branches of the tree and turns into a cocoon resembling that of a niche; except for the fact that it was larger, to the point that it could house an adult human.

Seeing the cocoon, Alvine frowns. 'She has grown well, this girl, even if it's not the case for the tree.'

As soon as he finishes making this remark in his mind, the cocoon bursts into a particle of white light, finally revealing what it housed.

A young woman who seemed to be in the prime of her age slowly descends to Alvine.

Her hair, skin, and clothes were all white as if her nature was based on holy light.

She had two bracelets on each of her ankles and her two wrists tinkled like bells when she landed on the ground.

She finally opens her eyes didn't have pupils, not to mention irises; but only a white sclerotic.

Her white hair was long, so long that she dragged them behind her like the veil of a wedding dress as she approached Alvine with an expressionless's face.

Arriving ten meters from Alvine, her silhouette instantly zooms in and embraced Alvine while joyfully yelling. "Big brother, you've finally come!"

Alvine was initially stunned by her speed that he had trouble keeping up with.

But the second after an ironic smile emerges on his lips as he strokes the girl's hair. "It's been a long time, Isolet."

"Isolet believed bad people had attacked his big brother. Isolet wanted to leave to help you, but Isolet couldn't leave the planet because of sis Fy who prevented Isolet from leaving!" She spoke in a trembling voice as if she were overloaded by her emotions and nostalgia that she had trouble slowing down.

Alvine couldn't help giggling when he heard the complaints and the strange accent of the little girl who became an adult over time.

'I had picked her up from a planet on board extinction, but as she was a mutation of the world tree of the said planet; curiosity pushed me to add her to my collections.

-But I didn't expect her to be already in the same rank as my generals; was I wrong about her species? Maybe I should ask Fy for more details about her.'

Alvine's thoughts began to wander as he constantly listened to Isolet’s complaints who looked like a spoiled sister who wanted to push her big brother to avenge her.

"Alright, Alright, I'll make sure to scold Fy and prevent her from sealing you here." Alvine delivers his verdict after Isolet has completed all complaints.

She looks into Alvine's eyes with a smile going from one ear to the other. "Is it true?! You're going to avenge Isolet!?" She exclaims with joy.

"Yes, she should never have rebuked my little sister." Alvine nods his head with simulated anger.

"I knew it! However, it's not for lack of warning her. Fy, the bad sis will finally understand her pain!" But naive as she was, she believed Alvine's words without ulterior motives.

Hearing the explosion of force that emanated from her fist that she squeezed with excitement, Alvine frowned. 'Why do I become sure that I was wrong about her as I look at her closely? She was only a small young sprout that I wanted to use to start my hibernation; but after careful reflection, I realized that she was missing something; she was too innocent to accede to my request.

But I couldn't force her, lest she be contaminated by my power. She was a failure, a failure I had put aside just in case I found another use. But who could have guessed that she'd become so--

"Big brother?" She looks innocently at Alvine who was immersed in his thoughts.

At this moment, the bitter taste of guilt tightens Alvine's heart in his chest.

He forces a smile towards Isolet and spoke in a tender and soft voice after several efforts. "Don't worry, everything’s fine. But tell me, did you succeed in the mission I had assigned you?"

"Hehehe~, it wasn't easy, but I succeeded! From now on, I can make my tree disappear and make it appear wherever I want!"

"-!! Is it true!?" Alvine asks with surprised eyes; as if he had trouble believing what he had just heard.

But Isolet nods her head several times.

'Well, let's summarize the situation, if she can move her real body which is this giant tree, it means that her branches have covered the entire globe.

-The world trees are known to take root in the core of a planet; but as the planet had already manifested a form of intelligence that is Fy, I did not have too much expectation about it.

-But how did she do it? Did she take control of Fy? No, I noticed that Fy was still the owner of this planet. But then...

Having no answer to his question, Alvine looks at Isolet. "How did you do it?"

"Hehehe, you know; sis Fy was mean to me when I tried to approach her. She had even tried to kill me several times, but Isolet didn't let her happen. Isolet fought against her many times. But in the end, sister allowed Isolet to stay by her side and help her manage the planet."

"What!? Does this mean that the seed of your tree is next to the planet's core!?" Alvine asks in a heavier voice than usual; unable to hold back his surprise.

But Isolet shakes her head. "Un-un, Isolet's seed is planted in the core of the planet. From now on, Isolet and Sis are one! Sis Fy's with Isolet permanently; even at this moment!"

Isolet's words made Alvine dizzy. 'Is it even possible that two independent and opposite existences merge!? More importantly, this vicious girl used Isolet to increase her strength. That's why she has become so strong in time.'

With this conclusion, Alvine looks straight into Isolet's eyes. "Isolet, calls Fy; I'm going to scold her here and now." Unlike previous times, his anger wasn't assimilated.

But Isolet saw nothing abnormal with his dark expression. She nods her head before moving slightly away from Alvine.

She reaches out her hand and a leaf from the giant tree comes off before falling into her palm.

She whistles the leaf that chimes like a flute played by a professional.

Simultaneously, just like her, Fy manifested herself in the same white sphere.

But she was different from the girl Alvine knew, she had no black hair, nor draconian scales covering her body.

Her skin, hair, and eyes were similar to Isolet's.

'Huh!? She’s...' Alvine couldn't mask his stupefaction when he sees a White Fy before him.

"My lord, it's a pleasure to see you again after all these millennia." She kneels in front of Alvine to show him her respect as if it were the first time she saw him after a long separation.

'Ah, I understood; this profiteer used one of her alter-egos to deceive Isolet's vigilance.' As soon as he finished these words, he invokes the other Fy who was in his castle.

The latter appeared through his shadow.

But when she saw her look-alike, her eyes widened. "Huh!? How can you're...here?"

It was not only one who spoke, but the two spoke at the same time; which forced Alvine to question his hypotheses.

"Again this bad sister?! She's the meanest of all!" Before Alvine spoke, Isolet take ahead by pronouncing this sentence with hostile and bloodthirsty eyes.

But Isolet's words put the chip in Alvine's ear. "Isolet, apart from these two, is there any other Fy?" Alvine asks after putting aside all the mysteries he was facing.

He had his reasons, especially when he heard Isolet say that the Fy who was with him was the meanest of all!

'The world trees are known to weave the world and the dimensions through their branches and roots; thanks to their hereditary powers; anyone can take the paths they create with their branches and roots to travel through the dimensions. She must be the most informed among all of us.' With this conclusion, Alvine and the two Fy wait, waiting for Isolet to explain herself.

Isolet looks at Alvine with guilty eyes and speaks in a nervous tone. "Big brother, I have...

12:00

But contrary to everything Alvine had imagined, neither was guilty of the current situation.

Isolet looks at Alvine with guilty eyes and speaks in a nervous tone. "Big brother, I have...

"Big brother!?" The two Fy once again insist on these two words before Isolet continues her explanations.

They look at each other when they see one being as surprised as the other.

Alvine also frowns by guessing from what the two thought. '... Sigh, I knew I'd end up happening one day. However, I had warned her not to have fun dividing her soul into several fragments. One of the greatest consequences of this spell is a personality disorder.

-If the soul fragments have similar memories and powers, they'll all think that they are the original; this will eventually cause a conflict between them. It even happens that the original loses the battle, and disappears forever in merging with clone’s soul.' Alvine could feel the headache coming to KM just by seeing the two Fy frowning.

"Calm down, you two. We‘ll first listen to what Isolet has to tell us."

"At your command, my lord." Both respond, once again, at the same time and with the same gestures.

"..."

"Continue, Isolate. I don't have the luxury of dwelling on additional problems that try to add to my current slate." The frustration was noticeable in Alvine's voice as he looked at the two girls beside him.

Isolet became more agitated when she saw the electrifying tension between Alvine and her two sisters. "I...am sorry."

"-!!" Alvine focuses on her by hearing her trembling voice.

But when he saw the face of Isolet who was in tears, he became even more confused; not seriously understanding what was happening in front of him.

"Huh? Why are you apologizing? You didn't do anything, so don't burst into tears. Big brother has just a little headache, I'm not angry." He tries to do his best to calm the whiner with his words.

'Anything but not that! If she starts crying, I'd find it difficult to silence her. I remember that she had spent two whole days crying when I scolded her. It was so annoying that I almost killed her to regain my peaceful silence!' As he began to think to find a solution, Isolet finally stops tearing up after hearing Alvine's words.

She then looks at Alvine with hesitant eyes and begins her explanation.

"To accomplish the mission big brother had given to Isolet, Isolet had no choice but to get along well with Sis. But my sis refused to let me approach her. She tried to kill me every time. So, Isolet had no choice but to find other big sisters who'd accept to deal with her."
