Chapter 605 Aella's Wedding: End

?The cabin finally opened, and everyone extended their necks up to look. Arad and Aella finally made it out.

The elves sighed. Finally, the wait was over.

Arad and Aella approached the priest's stand, looking back at the people in the church.

The priest looked at them, then turned around, "Today is a blessed day. Under the watchful eyes of the goddess and the world tree, we witness the wedding of two souls."

He lifted his hands, "In my hands, I got two fruits of the world tree." He then turned toward Arad and Aella, "Sir Arad Orion, do you accept Aella Deianira as your wife for all eternity?"

"Yes," Arad replied.

"Lady Aella Deianira, do you accept Arad Orion as your husband for all eternity?"

"Of course," She nodded with a smile.

The priest smiled, "Then may you be together in life and death." He extended his hands toward them, handing Arad the lemon and Aella the lime. "Take one bite of the sacred fruit of the world tree, and the goddess may grant you a blessing."

Arad and Aella took the fruits. She took a bite while Arad managed to munch and swallow the whole lemon with one bite. She felt a faint rush of magic across her head as the sour taste engulfed her mouth while a clear green light flashed in Arad's eyes.

To them, the whole church turned black, engulfed in darkness as everyone disappeared. Arad and Aella looked back, seeing branches burst from the ground and forming a massive tree with a throne in the middle.

A blond, red-eyed elf glared down at them as she sat on the throne, one leg on the other with her head resting on her hand. Ñøv€l--ß1n hosted the premiere release of this chapter.

[CONGRATULATIONS]

"This magic," Arad said, looking at the elves' goddess. "It's the same place I was digging toward when the queen disappeared."

"Sylph, the elf goddess." Aella gasped.

[You're right, child of the void. This a demi-plane I meet people in for granting blessings or advice.]

"I thought it was just customary, not that you really show up." Arad smiled.

[I show up to every elf's marriage, birth, and death. I watch over them, bless their lives, and guide them through their existence till death brings them back to me.]

"I never thought a day would come when I'd see you," Aella smiled.

[We don't have time, so here is your blessing. It's not like any other I've granted.]

TAP! A small pot with a tiny tree growing appeared in front of Aella.

[The world tree cultivated power for billions of years since AO first made the whole world. This is but a branch, an insignificant fragment. You may grow it at your house.]

She then looked at Arad, [Beneath the world tree, you, her, and your other wives of the future shall heal, and death may not claim you. When this tree grows, put your sick one under its shade to heal. Even that vampire would heal.]

"So it world beneath this and the real world tree." Arad looked at the pot Aella carried.

They walked out through the church's back door, leaving in a carriage that awaited them and heading back to Aella's mansion.

As the girls went into the mansion Arad approached the guard post. "How is it going?"

One of the guards approached him, bowing, "First. Congratulations Baron Arad," Looked at Arad with a smile, "My the blessing of the world tree be with you for the rest of time."

He stood from the bow, "The mirror is fine, no damage was spotted through the transport, and we're already getting ready to send the guests back to Alina."

Arad smiled, "Thanks for the good work," He looked at the mirror, "That thing is really something,"

"It is," The guards smiled.

"How did it?" A guard asked, "No troubles?"

"I ripped the back of my suit," Arad laughed.

"That must've been scary," An elf giggled, "For me, I spilled water on myself while stressing out inside the cabin,"

"My wife tripped the moment we got out of the cabin and almost broke a tooth. I told her she doesn't need high heels."

"Can't blame her, those are the goddess' preferred shoes."

Arad looked at them, "High heels?"

One of the guards looked at him, "That's right, the goddess Sylph was known for always wearing them everywhere, even to battle." He smiled. "The sound of her heels clicking on the ground was told to send terror into her enemies."

"I thought those make it hard to move?" Arad looked at them, confused.

"That's why," A guard giggled, "When came to a fight with them meant that whoever she was fighting wasn't even worth it. Probably an act of domination,"

Arad thought about it for a few moments, "Would they make a nice gift?"

The guards looked at him, "For an elvish woman? Of course, high heels, silk white robes, and hair ties are the best gifts that most would take."

"He's right. Anything besides those need to be special to the woman. If you don't know what she likes, one of those three is a safe bet."

"Or give them a bow or quiver if they are an archer," Another one added, "To us, Archery is more of a hobby or a sport than a fighting style. We even have competition all year around, and people can get really enthusiastic about it."

Arad nodded, "I see. I'll get them all beside the bow. She already got one special." Aella had the steel bow that Mira made. He doubts anything can top that. Even magic bows won't make sense as they need the user to attune to them which can take time and the mana that she uses to cast wind magic.

"I'm going out for a bit," Arad left into the elvish capital marked, browsing the shops for the three items he needed. A white silk dress, a hair tie, and a pair of high heels.

After an hour, Arad returned to the mansion where the girls were waiting for him, "Where did you?" Aella asked.

"I was talking with the mirror guards and decided to go buy some things from the city," Arad pulled a bag from his stomach.

"Buy what?"

"I was thinking of buying something for you as a gift but didn't know what to get, but while talking with the guards I got some idea," Arad handed her the back, "Those are for you?"
