I was confused as to the reason for all this, it was just out of the blue, every moment the ambient energy seems to collapse making the weather phenomena worse.
Soon I see Freya and my other Familiars running after me, they look up and Freya seems to close her eyes trying to understand something, so she opens her eyes.
"Nature is raging, this is a catastrophe of punishment and it's just begun." (Freya)
"Punishment? Punishment for what? I thought it was only when some idiot destroyed nature that this kind of thing happened." (I)
"Some idiot must have done something drastic against nature, it must have been some serious environmental damage for it to be like this." (Nix)
"What should we do?" (Orion)
"I don't think I can kill a storm." (Layla)
"I don't think this is a problem you can solve by killing something." (Ragnar)
"All problems can be solved by killing something, I just don't know what to kill now." (Layla)
"Should we run? Return everyone to the Dungeon?" (I)
"You know it's not that easy." (Freya)
"Do you have any plans?" (Sakura)
"Sadly yes." (I)
"Zenos!" (Allan)
I look at a group of people running out of the Auction, it was Hero Allan's group, they had serious expressions as they ran towards me.
"Zenos, I need your help." (Allan)
"No." (I)
"You don't even know what I'm going to order." (Allan)
"You are a Hero and a disaster is happening that will destroy this city, it doesn't take a genius to connect one dot to another." (I)
"You bastard, are you going to let this city be destroyed?" (Allan)
"I sympathize with the people of this town, but what is happening is retribution for someone's stupidity, my only duty is to my group, I will not kill myself or let my group be in danger for something we have no power to stop." (I)
Allan has no idea how bad things are going to get, I can defend some lightning and tornadoes, but things are still getting worse as we talk and I feel danger on top of the clouds, my Aura is also being more and more restricted by the energy of Nature coming out out of control, I can't think of anything I can do to stop it.
"Calm down, Allan." (Bianca)
"He has no duty to do anything and is not wrong to protect his teammates above all else." (Bianca)
"But Bianca..." (Allan)
"We can't do anything about them, but we can still run to complete the mission." (Darcia)
"We know who is responsible, I may still have a way to work this out, but we have to run." (Bianca)
"But there might not be time for the city..." (Allan)
"Can you… calm nature?" (Freya)
"We have an item for that, I know what to do to activate the item, but I don't know the result afterwards." (Bianca)
They took out a crystal containing an image of a tree bud inside, as soon as this item appeared the energy in the surroundings stopped getting out of control, I also feel an insane amount of natural and harmonious energy within this crystal.
"I don't know what you guys are going to do, but you won't have time, in 30 minutes this city will be just rubble." (I)
? As he spoke, the ground began to shake and plants full of thorns began to come out of the ground.
"If you have this crystal, why not activate it now?" (I)
"I need to find the culprit first, otherwise I can't activate the item." (Bianca)
"Master..." (Freya)
"..." (I)
I don't like Freya's look, she's determined.
"I don't know..." (I)
"We can at least delay things." (Freya)
"You know this is different from harmonizing a normal area, right?" (I)
"But it could work, it doesn't have to be perfect, we're not building a Cradle of Fairies or Cradle of Spirits." (Nix)
"You're going to need our help too." (Sakura)
"I would like to do something about it, my mother hates to see nature like this." (Ragnar)
Ragnar's mother is a Unicorn, a super powerful Divine Beast that protects nature from what I've heard.
All my Familiars showed up with Nix coming out of my shadow, Orion returning to her normal size, and Hinata no longer being invisible, she still has no expression, but after so long I can understand her emotions through her eyes, she also wants to help.
"You're turning things around, I was supposed to be the reckless one and you, with the exception of Layla, to be the voice of reason." (I)
"What did you mean by that!?" (Layla)
"Damn, damn, I'm sure I'm going to regret this." (I)
Bianca is looking at me with hope and Darcia seems to be more concerned about the surroundings, she is Diana stopped some blows of nature against us, érica on the other hand stayed inside to help Rakan and Irina with a barrier not knowing what is happening here outside.
"I'll buy you some time, thank Freya and the others for that." (I)
"Thanks." (Allan)
"We will!" (Allan)
Allan and his group run towards the harbor, I hope they're not running away and leaving this problem in my hands, at least their eyes aren't those of someone running away.
I turn to Freya whose White Elf disguise has disappeared revealing her beautiful black skin and silver hair in plain sight for all to see.
The diamond-shaped crystal (◇) with a golden seed on her forehead was flashing a faint glow now that I got a better look.
"I still don't like this idea, but since they want to do it, let's go because we don't have time." (I)
I still remember the things the Elf Queen Luthien taught me in the past alongside Freya, so with the help of all my Familiars it will be more effective, especially with Hinata having death energy and Freya life energy, Freya is not my Familiar like the others, but she still has a strong bond with me because of the Awakening ceremony that turned her into an Ancient Elf.
"Vanessa, I'll call the others from the Dungeon, you and Diana are in charge to protect and hide us, don't let anyone see what we'll be doing in the sky." (I)
"I'm gonna do my best." (Vanessa)
"Nix call Sapphira, Jade, Ibuki, Athena and their group." (I)
"I will as soon as possible." (Nix)
Nix sinks into my Shadow going through the Spirit Gate into my Shadow, I hope she's quick.
