"We might be able to purify it with a holy light and an anti-curse field. However, we can't cover such a large area." Luna wiped her sweat.
She could tell even if the elves could still defend against undead and demonic beings. But, it would be a matter of time before they were in a predicament if that omnious cloud still covered this continent.
"There is no source of the cause, so the clouds are already contaminated. The only solution is to clear the sky." Ashera folded her arms as she looked up, feeling complicated.
"It seems you are right." Luna nodded in agreement. She thought of another solution to clear the sky because the previous few methods failed.
"Empress Luna, can you ask the Almighty Goddess for help? The Goddess of Light is the most suitable one to solve this problem." Ashera proposed a solution.
She had planned to make the Goddess of Light their Patron Goddess, and now was the right time to make all the elves bow down to worship the new Goddess.
"Hm, I can't because I need to impress her." Luna answered reflexively, but she immediately covered her mouth with her folding fan and readjusted her response. "I mean, the Goddess of Light is currently in closed door cultivation. We can't leave all the work to the divine. We mortals should be able to solve the mundane problem."
"..." Ashera went silent and looked at the elves still fighting against the enemies. Since both parties were weakened, the battle was the same, as no one got the field advantage over the others.
"Ah, Elven Empress, how about you make a deal with us? I am no longer the ruler of my region and now the servant of the Goddess I worship. The Goddess for beastkin race too." Luna devised an idea to strengthen her holy magic talisman to solve the sky problem.
"What do you want to say, Empress Luna?" Ashera felt a little suspicious because the one before her was still the famous Empress-level cunning and scheming vixen.
"You could say I was a divine envoy sent by the Goddess of Light. The Tree of Life was no longer there to protect your land, but you might be able to use my approach to make our Patron Goddess yours too. She is so generous and full of benevolence. I know your intention. This land can be protected by the holy light and strengthened by the power of faith. We can get rid of those omnious clouds in this way, and I am sure of that." Luna made an offer because she knew the Elven Empress's intentions.
"I would be happy to do so, but I haven't asked the Goddess of Light for permission. What if she has a bad impression of us, elves?" Ashera was delighted to implement it, but she was still determining.
"Did you know, the Dwarven Race has also done the same thing. They took the Goddess of Light as their patron and built many temples in each city in a short period of time. She didn't think of it even if they did it without her consent, and that too would applies to you. She would love to have attractive and lovely elves to worship her." Luna raised her finger and shook it right and left.
"All right, but how can that solve our current situation?" Ashera put her hand to her chin.
"You still have sound transmission to other elven rulers, right? So, the plan is like this." Luna then whispered her little plan to Ashera via telepathy.
A few moments later, they went to their respective positions. Luna was hiding somewhere, ready to use large-scale magic. While Ashera went to implement the plan she had prepared a few days ago.
"Listen, o my kindred spirit of brave elves. The omnious curse covers our land and envelops us in darkness. The divine won't grace her mighty presence before the unworthy of salvation. Heed upon my call. Send our prayers to the sky and call upon the light to bestow us with her blessing of light!" Ashera sent a sound transmission to the other rulers, spreading throughout the forest.
The Elven Empress's speech echoed and stunned all the elves for a second. The undead, demonic beings, and other monsters also froze for a moment because of the exclamation.
However, most of the elves immediately clasped their hands in prayer. They really needed a big pillar to become their spiritual support. They didn't need to question the Elven Empress Ashera's orders and didn't dare to doubt the divine light of the Goddess of Light's power. Most elves send their prayers to summon the aid of the Almighty Goddess.
"Wow, this works. The divine magic can indeed be strengthened with the power of faith. I presume, Ely and her master get another power boost because of this now. All beaings should worship her now." Luna muttered to herself when she saw her holy light talisman shining so brightly.
She chuckled a little when imagining something, but she soon returned from her trance because she still had tasks to complete. "Fufu, I crave for my reward later. Oops, it's time for duty."
Luna raised her holy light talisman with two fingers, then requested the holy light talisman to take the form of the magic imprint's original owner.
She then threw it up into the sky, piercing the omnious clouds.
*Rumble!*
Thunder rumbled, and a divine golden light instantly lit up the land. It was different from the previous golden twinkling that swept away the clouds because, this time, the figure of a six-winged Goddess clad in a full golden aura descended from the sky.
The power of faith was intended for the Goddess of Light because the elves summoned the light, and Elysia's magic manifestation absorbed the surrounding magic to create amplifiers that ran in perfect harmony.
*Swiish*
The holy light illuminated the Elven Continent, incinerating the omnious clouds to nothingness.
"It's the holy light!"
"The Goddess of Light really came at the request of all of us!"
"This power of divine light! I can feel the power boost!"
"Yeah, this is the power that the divine lent us to eliminate the evil beings!"
"Annihilate them! Leave none behind!"
"Ooh!"
The elves rushed at the undead and demonic beings with renewed zeal. However, the curse particles soon gathered and shot up to attack Elysia's magic manifestation.
"You will not prevail, evil curse. You must pass me first, the Almighty Goddess's faithful servant." Luna shot up into the sky, stopping the curse using her active anti-curse field.
*Boom!* *Boom!* *Bam!*
The golden divine holy light shone upon the Elven Continent and partially on the Fairy Continent. The elves struggled to crush their enemies into shards and ashes. Since there weren't any accursed creatures around, the elves could handle everything.
Luna didn't go to eliminate the high-level undead because Ashera and the other experts could do it. Thus, she kept an eye on Elysia's magic manifestation while observing everything from above.
At that time, Lynn was purifying forests on Fairy Continent. The revived undead in her place of duty was small in size but large in number. Their aim was to contaminate the woods and kill the fairies gradually. Still, evil wouldn't prevail since the high-level purification magic of the Goddess of Life could worsen the situation.
"We still need to find the source of the forest's contamination, Fairy Empress Yralissa." After placing the last catalyst to keep the previous forest city safe from contamination, Lynn heaved a sigh of relief.
"How are we going to find the source of the cause?" Yralissa completely needed to learn about where the problem was in her land.
The enemies were visible, and the fairies could handle the threats well with their magic and the help of nature. Unfortunately, the visible enemies were not the only threats here.
"I have used my foresight ability. Fairy Continent has the luma major grand forest, and the five heart of the forest have been infected by cancer parasites of the undead that spread death energy into the forest. Please summon your elite priests who are skilled in purification. We need at least ten more people at Saint level or above." Lynn opened a map of the Fairy Continent and marked several spots in case she forgot the location of the cause.
"All right, I will summon them, but the ten Saint-level priests won't be able to arrive in an instant. They are in different cities and regions. However, I have two people. They will be here soon." Yralissa pressed a leaf to her forehead, calling her high priests to come to her current location. She then sent a sound transmission to other rulers to send people to help her.
"We're not far from the heart of one of the major forests. Have them go to your location instead. We're only two people, so we have to act with caution in our investigations." Lynn pushed the purification catalyst, and that item sank into the ground, stopping forest contamination from spreading.
"Let's go. The forest earth veins temporarily calmed down, but we need to find and eliminate the curse that is contaminating the forest quickly." Yralissa rushed to fly, following Lynn to go deeper into the forest area.
"Screech!" A molten spider-like monster ambushed from above and split itself into hundreds.
"!?" Lynn prepared her wind magic to blow away those strange creatures. Still, the Fairy Empress immediately obliterated the monsters in a whirlwind of sharp wind and leaves, leaving only the smithereens behind.
"Hehe, we may be a bit pitiful when facing the accursed creatures, but our opponents this time only have relatively little anti-magic ability. We can dominate the battlefield and annihilate the Ruvoid Avatar's summoned minions." Yralissa felt both proud and relieved, but she didn't let her guard down one bit.
