Chapter 794 The Breakthrough

Seig abruptly paused, coughing slightly as he turned his attention towards Evadne. "Can you remind me what the unspoken rule says? I seem to have forgotten it," he asked, feeling embarrassed.

"Are you serious, Captain?" Evadne responded, arching a brow.

Seig cleared his throat lightly as he nodded. "It's an unspoken rule, so how am I supposed to fully remember its details if no one speaks about it?" he responded.

Evadne shook her head in response and sighed lightly. "Listen closely then, Captain, because I won't be repeating myself again. The unspoken rule states that while it is permissible to burn Vylkr vines, it must not be undertaken en masse without having a reliable method to deal with the Vylkr-infested fumes that result from the burning process. If a race proceeds with burning the Vylkr vines without adequate means to manage the fumes, they do so at their own peril," she responded.

Seig nodded.

"Captain, what do we do if they cannot deal with the catastrophe?" Evadne suddenly asked, concern etched on her expression.

"Since we have already decided to call this place our new home, we'll do whatever we can to help them," Seig responded.

"And if we are unsuccessful?" Evadne persisted.

Seig remained silent. He didn't see the need to respond to such a question when she already knew the answer to what she was asking for.

Evadne frowned and refocused on the dense Vylkr-infested fumes rising into the sky.

Patriarch Rylan residence

The Four-eared elves' gods chosen had already noticed the abnormality. They stared toward the Vylkr-infested smoke before they realized it was rising all around the Third border city walls into the clouds.

"What in the gods' name are they doing?" Leona spoke, her voice tinged with astonishment.

"Father, we need to warn them before it's too late," Isadora said, shifting her attention towards Patriarch Rylan.

Leona, Lyndon, and the other gods' chosens agreed with their words.

Orion arrived at the Healers' Association headquarters branch of the Second Border City with the Village Chief and Stronghold Leader Zogar to visit Seraphina and witness her breakthrough on the potential four-star Vylkr vines findings, as Greta had requested him to do after he finished his meeting with the Village Chief.

That was why the Village Chief and Stronghold Leader Zogar had accompanied him.

Stronghold Leader Seth had stayed behind to oversee the molten magma as it smothered the dead forest and to create more if necessary.

As they entered through the front door, a receptionist promptly greeted them and led them toward Seraphina's workplace.

Upon their arrival, the receptionist knocked on the door.

"Come in!" a voice resounded from within.

The receptionist opened the door and stepped to the side, gesturing for them to enter.

Orion and the others nodded and stepped inside while the receptionist closed the door behind them.

They were immediately greeted by four familiar figures, all of whom were standing around a long rectangular table. They were the former Prismerions Healer Council members, and now heads of various Healers Association branches scattered all over Orion's cities.

"Mr Orion!"

"Village Chief!"

"Stronghold Leader Zogar!"

The heads of the Healers Association branches greeted them immediately upon noticing their presence.

Orion, the Village Chief, and Stronghold Leader Zogar all reciprocated their greetings.

"We were already finished and were just planning to leave," Thoren said. "Seraphina will explain everything to you."

They had arrived early that morning to finish their work after receiving important information that Orion had returned from his significant meeting. They felt mentally strained and wanted to return to their workplace before resuming their duties.
