Chapter 1159: Cap 1157: Investigation On Planet Jareh Part 2
Elizabeth made everyone run to a place where apparently there was nothing but a big mountain.
"I am Elizabeth, daughter of the Supreme Blood Deity, open the restrictions." (Elizabeth) CHeCk for new stories on no/v/el/bin(.)c0m
With my sister's scream the image of the mountain shakes for 1 second before a wooden gate rises from the ground in front of us and opens.
An Elf with two bird's wings on his back was standing waiting inside, it was possible to see a village as well as a World Tree on the other side of the gate.
"Welcome to Living Tyranny, Elizabeth."
"Where are Valerius and Val?" (Elizabeth)
"They have been waiting for you since you arrived in our world, as soon as you pass through this gate you will go to where you are waiting."
"Zenos, as soon as we arrive, go with Silvia straight to the World Tree, we don't have time to lose." (Elizabeth)
"All good." (I)
When Elizabeth first passes through the gate it seems to disappear while the strange Elf was still standing on the other side alone, trusting my sister I went next, I felt the space taking me like a current before I appeared right under the World Tree, it was a tree of pink wood whose leaves were the color of the rainbow.
Silvia followed right behind me and together we ran towards the World Tree, we put our hands on its roots.
Soon several roots grew where I touched and dug into my hands and arms at high speed, my arms became a mess of flesh and blood with even my bones breaking.
Silvia's situation looked the same as mine, but she waved at me at the same time as an Aura that seemed infinite entered my body only to collide against my own Aura and Authority like a wall that barely holds in place.
"(I apologize, but we don't have time, cooperate for now Zenos.)"
"..." (I)
"She won't harm us, believe me." (Silvia)
I lower my Aura defenses while trying to control the rejection of my Authority, then I feel this intrusive Aura touch my Soul causing my consciousness to sink.
---------------
When I realized I was in a rose garden, there was a mature woman with pink hair and wearing green clothes, she looked at me and when she turned around I realized that next to her was Silvia.
"I apologize for my rudeness, but I needed more catalysts for my power, my Elf King can't handle the amount of power I need to manifest right now."
"This is the Spirit of the World Tree, we are inside his mind now, his name is Val." (Silvia)
"I am the one who cares for this world, nice to meet you gardener of World Trees, Zenos." (Val)

Pov Athena:
We were leaving somewhere else after going through a large Teleportation Gate, I was with Miriam, Astrid, Zadiris, and Alice in a room talking about the attack a few hours ago.
"You mean it was your enemies, those who deform the flesh and are desecrating life?" (Zadiris)
"Yes, the creatures from earlier looked a little different, but we call them meat soldiers, those had more strength and higher regeneration." (Astrid)
"We are also unaware of the magical jamming device they used, but everyone except me has lost the ability to move their Magical Prostheses." (Miriam)
"I couldn't even move my body, even my mind was thrown into chaos as some of my organs stopped working." (Astrid)
"Thank you for keeping me alive until my Magical Prosthetics reset, Miss Alice." (Astrid)
"That was something I needed to do and the reason Miriam Miriam wasn't affected was because of the power she received from Zenos." (Alice)
"But the point isn't about that, the first thing we should find out is how did they know where we were going?" (I)
"Could they have followed us here somehow?" (Zadiris)
"I didn't see any kind of vehicles, I didn't see any other threats besides them either." (I)
"I thought of capturing the only individual that looked intelligent, but it was not possible, his body burned out as suddenly as the magical jamming device." (I)
"What kind of fire was that to burn non-flammable solid matter in the cold vacuum of space?" (Astrid)
"Curse of a Necromancer, I studied a lot about it when I was still in the Church of Light." (I)
"The name is 'Death Flames', a Curse as the young woman just described, often used among criminal Necromancers to hide their tracks." (Zadiris)
"It seems your enemies were able to solve your people's problem in their own way, Necromancy needs the individual's direct control, someone without the ability to manipulate magic directly would never be able to use it." (I)
"I can imagine how they did it, it was a possibility I considered when we got here, but it was immediately dismissed." (Astrid) .
"The answer is quite simple if the individual has no limits on what he is willing to do." (Zadiris)
"If your body isn't suitable, get one that is, many Alchemists and Necromancers build a body to replace the original, it could be a Homunculus or Undead." (Zadiris)
"They fear death very much to transform themselves into these lifeless things, I've also heard of Hominculi from Miriam's reports, they need a lot of magical knowledge, Alchemy, and very specific materials for their creation, they don't have a theoretical basis or experience in practical area in question for creating such an Artificial creature." (Astrid)
"You mean they used a person for this? They stole the body of a living person?" (I)
"I'm saying they've done much worse than that, they distort living bodies, they shape their bodies like a jigsaw puzzle, their minds are not bound by any common sense or morals." (Astrid)
