Chapter 365 Forming A Contract With The World Tree

"What do you mean by that?" Emma asked back, confused of the words the world spirit had used. After all, Emma did need help but wasn\'t it the same for everyone? Everyone needed help whether it be during critical junctures in their life or hard ties during battles.

"Don\'t act sly dear, your current situation. You need help with that and I can help you," this time, the world spirit\'s words hit the spot as hearing them, Emma finally connected the dots. Why she was brought here to this place at such a time and why everything was going the way it was going. The information she was being told was no less secretive, it was related to the secrets of the worlds and although Emma had wondered why she was getting told everything in such a way, now it was all cleared.

The world spirit wanted to help her and for that, it wanted to forge a closer relation to her so she would accept its help.

"But why do you want to help me? Telling me everything and acting so close to me. Why is it that you are giving me such preferential treatment, I am sure there are torn her people that require your help and can do more with it than I ever could," Asked Emma as she placed her worries in front of the world spirit, directly putting the spirit under the spotlight.

"Sigghhh, such an unrelenting child. Really true to your bloodline," the spirit\'s sigh reached her ears this time.

Perplexed as to why she could now hear the sprit speak in her ears and not in my mind, Emma looked around and this time she found a woman standing in front of the tree.

Looking at the woman, Emma realized that the woman was nothing short of outstanding. Her beauty otherworldly as it flowed with a never ending charisma that gripped at people\'s heart while an aura of solemn and magnificent authority was around air, the air of a noble that couldn\'t be mistaken in any way possible.

A very noble existence who didn\'t bow down to anyone, whose smile captivated everyone and whose life was dedicated to nothing but the people it served.

It was exactly the world spirit, manifesting itself as a beautiful and noble woman who always served the living beings that lived in the world. A solemn existence that only worked for the best of the world and right now, she was doing exactly that.

Looking at Emma, the world spirit smiled, raising its hand; a glow shined upon it as right after, all Emma saw was a blinding light and her consciousness had shifted to multiple places around the world. Seeing the visions, tears started to form around her eyes as Emma finally realized what the spirit wanted and what Emma\'s role was in everything.

"I will help you," Falling to the ground, Emma said with much difficulty as tears still streamed down her eyes.

"Very well, lets make a contract then," The world spirt said and approached Emma.

Standing up, Emma nodded with a grim expression on her face and walked towards the tree that towered in middle of the plain. She knew exactly what she needed to do for forming a contract with the World Tree and she also knew why she needed to do so.

It wasn\'t because she was some chosen one or some other foolish, it was simply the need of time. She had the power and was the most compatible person for the job and with what she had been shown, rejecting this would be same as dooming the whole world as a whole.

Soon after, she had reached the tree and stood in front of it. Her eyes were resolute and firm as she raised her hand and took out a dagger from mid air. Piercing her palm with the dagger, it dug deep into her palm, making her flinch but she held on with the pain and placed her hand on the tree.

It was now that came the hard part. The tree\'s trunk was old and the surface was rough and jagged but Emma didn\'t seem to care. She pressed her palm and took a deep breathe. After that, her palm moved and after that it started forming symbols.

The symbols weren\'t nothing but simple runes in the old magical language and what she was doing was a simple act of forming runes that spelled her name.

However, with how rough the trunk was and how deeply wounded her palm was, the pain wasn\'t something easy to handle and Emma was really suffering from it. Her eyes were blood red from the pain but she held on.

It was something that was needed for the contract to be formed and she was going to do it. If she backed down now, it was as simple as accepting defeat and she would never be able to look at herself in the mirror.

It took a few audorous minutes but Emma held on all that time and drew her name in the runic language. The tree\'s trunk was huge and her name was drawn on a small area but visible enough and was recognized by the contract as well.

Soon the runes glowed a crimson color while the tree shook lightly. Leaves fell down from the branches and floated around Emma and soon Emma was covered in a tornado of leaves.

During all this, her hand had healed while a revitalizing power felt coursing through her body. The power wasn\'t hard or rushing, it was like a warm embrace of a mother. Enveloping her whole and nourishing her body and soul as warmth spread through her body.

"What is it?" She thought as the euphoric feeling passed. She was now left on the ground, covered in a greenish brown leather armor.

"That\'s the blessing of World Tree. The world spirit has blessed you and now you share with it the powers it holds and the knowledge it has in its grasp," the spirit replied in her mind.

"That seems too good to be true," Emma replied back.

"Of course its too good to be true but it is the truth. Though, it has some flaws. For using the strength of the world tree and the power it holds, you would have to share with it a partition of your life force as a sacrifice and during the time you would use it\'s powers, the world sprit would take a part of your consciousness and in that time, it could invade your consciousness and do anything it wants. Meaning your secrets would be laid bare to the world spirit," Listening to it all, Emma realized one saying that Ray said a lot.

In this world, there is nothing like free food. Everything has a price and with the price of the world spirit, it was nothing but that of trust.

"A mutual relation. It\'s a double edged sword but one thats necessary," As Emma sighed, she was told of the benefits she would gain and weighing the pros to the cons, Emma realized another thing. She had unexpectedly had a very good bargain because the pros heavily outweighed the cons and as long as she was faithful to the world and thought of the world\'s betterment, it would only lead to her benefits.

"Okay, lets go back. I am sure i have wasted a lot of time here and I got a lot of things to do. I have a friend to save and an asshole of an enemy to finish," Saying those words, Emma unconsciously released a bit of her aura as it led to her eyes turning blueish green while the armor on her body also glowed and morphed into some sort of battle mode.

Spikes appeared on the shoulder pads while veins elongated out of the bracers and they formed two curved daggers that glinted a sharp light.

"Woah, i gotta learn to control it," Emma said, looking down the changes on her body as she smiled in content. The power she had gained was really considerable and from what she sensed, she was currently just a step away from the Calamity Realm.

"Let\'s go back," she said with a bit care, keeping her emotions in check while the world spirit nodded and snapped her finger.

The world around Emma turned dark and she appeared out of the strange space she was in before and found herself where she previously was, though this time her senses were better and she herself was stronger than before.

"Let\'s have some work done now," She muttered and clasped her hands together as a gust of wind was kicked up.

Waves of mana were coming off from her body as they formed a formless pressure that evoked a sense of order into the surroundings.

[World Order:- Aura Release],

Saying that, her hands formed seals and then she waved both her hands at once. What came after that was a huge wave of aura that spread across the forest but it didn\'t stop there because after that came wave after wave as those waves flooded the whole forest with her aura while concentrating around the core of the forest, their goal was none other than the damned tree that had captured her friend.
