Chapter 701: Another Anomaly

"Oh, that reminds me of that one-eyed giant monster. He often screams something like \'food\' or \'devour\'. Do accursed creatures see us as food?" Sylvia tapped her chin in the girls\' conversation to pass the free time on the trip.

"Hmm, they become everyone\'s enemies because they consume any source of magical energy, including living beings like us. If they didn\'t have such rotten tendencies and didn\'t threaten the world, perhaps, the Gods and Goddesses wouldn\'t be bothered by their arrival." Vanessa sighed and shook her head.

"In that case, don\'t the Ruvoid Race just look like a group that\'s starving and needing a place to stay? If they get an adequate supply of food with a piece of land as a place to live, are they still a threat?" Ella asked in wonder. That sounded a bit naive, but she was just wondering.

Rhea got an eye signal from Elysia and heaved a subtle sigh to remind the girls of their enemy. "That\'s too good to be true. The battle in the past soon broke out because the Ruvoid Race had great ambition and arrogance. They viewed all beings in this world as livestock, slaves, or things, including this world\'s divine beings. Cursed Gods treated this world as a field to harvest, and all the creatures here are beneath them."

"That\'s why our only option is to eradicate them completely? Hm, their curse has also become a big threat to this world. Their existence alone will always contaminate and destroy the surrounding environment with curses." Yuuki nodded in understanding.

"When malice aggression is the only option, fighting is the only solution." Nell folded her arms and nodded like a sage

The girls then went back to talking cheerfully about their opponent. They devised several strategies for their next battle, assuming they would engage in action when they arrived at Fairy Continent.

\'Sigh, and that\'s how we got involved with this mess. To be honest, I don\'t really care about this world and those damned creatures. If it weren\'t for them threatening our people, I might have turned a blind eye to them.\' Elena sighed in thought.

\'Did your laziness strike again, Sister Elena? I remember you telling me that you would wipe out all accursed monsters during the sealed area incident near the Holy City.\' Elysia chuckled in reply. She knew Elena only said that on a whim.

\'Ah, that is also one of the main factors in our fight against those savage monsters! They really dare to hurt my Ely. Unforgivable. Their destruction is the only deliverance and penance for them. That Alashor will also be waiting for us to deal with. We\'re just giving him a little time and waiting for the right time for that, hehe…\' Elena squinted her eyes, and an angry aura erupted from her inadvertently.

Rhea and Oceanid were taken aback, but Elena\'s aura only lasted for the blink of an eye.

\'Oops.\' Elena pretended not to know what had just happened and just stared ahead. They had already entered the Fairy Continent, but there was no sign of battle anywhere.

"Little one, haven\'t any sealed areas of this continent collapsed yet? I can\'t see any signs of battle anywhere. Hmm... Are the fairy troops in the forest over there... They guarding a sealed area?" Elena looked around curiously.

"Regarding that, I haven\'t received any reports of the collapse of the sealed area in the Fairy Continent. The Tree of Life and her forces sealed those monsters perfectly, perhaps? Wait, she sealed the stronger ones beneath her body, so could it be that only the weaker ones were left in other areas?" Nell thought about it for a moment as she checked her golden talisman.

"Shall we ask her to come here?" Elena glanced at Rhea.

"Regarding that, we should ask my mother directly. However, not many strong monsters are sealed elsewhere. My mother and I have exterminated the major monsters at great sacrifice." Rhea put her hand on her upper chest and closed her eyes as if remembering an old wound.

"Then we will go to Zhadphis Woodland first. If we have nothing to do here, it will be more eventful for the Tree of Life to meet her child. Hm, what\'s her name again?" Elena rested her cheek against her hand.

"The sacred tree in the Fairy Continent is named Celes, Celes Quifiel. While the younger one is in the Elven Continent. She is named Hea, Hea Nirvalen." Elysia raised her hand for attention.

"Ah, that\'s it. Those adorable fluffy balls, hmm. Celes and Hea are arguably the Tree of Life\'s descendants, too? Your sisters. However, they are in charge of guarding the two sacred cities, and they are also made part of the royal family." Elena dropped her fist onto her open palm.

"En." Rhea just nodded in reply.

"So we\'re going straight to Zhadphis Woodland?" Oceanid asks for confirmation.

"Yes, we\'ll just go there. Hm?" Elena had just answered, but she accidentally noticed something odd in the distance.

Elysia looked in the same direction to check the situation. She could see an area near the eastern hill scorched by black flames. An odd jet-black aura oozed out from the ground as if to tell that a great battle against the accursed creatures once happened there.

"Wait, please look over there. I think that place has become a cursed ground. It seems a battle took place there some time ago, and the anti-curse mechanism failed to absorb the curse energy on the ground." Elysia pointed in a direction.

Oceanid immediately slowed the pace of the Gravy Ark because of Elysia\'s greeting. He and everyone else checked in the designated direction. Sure enough, a black cursed region was clearly visible from their height in the distance.

"Do you want to purify the place first?" Nell seemed to know what Elysia had in mind.

"Let\'s do that. We won\'t know what will happen to the cursed ground if we just ignore that place. I\'m afraid the surrounding flora and fauna may mutate into monsters." Elysia clasped her hands worriedly.

"That might happen."

"If that really happened, it would be hazardous."

"Fortunately, the Goddess of Light and Ely can purify such a place."

"We are fortunate, aren\'t we?"

The girls murmured to each other in full support of Elysia\'s suggestion.

Therefore, Oceanid only fulfilled Elysia\'s request. However, none of them would come close to the cursed ground. It was just Elysia and her master while the others would be waiting in the sky.

Elena flew down with Elysia beside her. She looked at the jet-black ground that was scorching black flames below with a sad look. "She said that there were no reports of the collapse of sealed areas on this continent, or she didn\'t know? Such a feeling of sorrow and despair. Ely, more than hundreds of elves died here. They fought those monsters to protect their homeland and loved ones."

"Mm." Elysia also felt sad to know that fact.

Two long charred metal rods stuck in the ground were evidence that a battle against accursed creatures happened here. The anti curse mechanism had reached its limit. That\'s why the cursed energy was still so dense in this place.

The aura of death that enveloped the place seemed to tell that hundreds of fairies had died on the battlefield.

"We shall free them from suffering. The curse there restrains their souls from liberation." Elysia muttered while examining all corners of the cursed ground with her sacred vision. Hundreds of floating little orbs were seen trying to free themselves from there, but they were shackled by the curse that contaminated it.

"Yeah, they are the fallen warriors. Let\'s pray for them too. Ely, do this with me." Elena clasped her hands in prayer and sent a prayer for the dead. Elysia did the same thing.

After that, they joined hands to cast magic to burn all the curse energy.

A dazzling golden light enveloped them and shone on the cursed ground. The black aura from the cursed land burned by the divine light into ashes of nothingness, releasing hundreds of floating little orbs.

"You shall go to the afterlife. Thank you for everything. We will continue the struggle of everyone to protect this world from the threat of the accursed." Elysia raised her hand upwards, and the hundreds of little orbs slowly flew into the sky.

\'Thank you.\' A faint voice full of relief sounded in Elysia and Elena\'s minds.

The hundreds of floating little orbs instantly faded and disappeared somewhere.

"The world\'s law? Hopefully, they will get a better life in the afterlife hereafter." Elena heaved a subtle sigh and gripped Elysia\'s hand tighter. She looked down once more. The cursed ground was no more, just brownish soil empty of life.

"En." Elysia returned Elena\'s tight grip.

"Let\'s go back. We will ask the Fairy Empress about this." Elena flew up, and Elysia followed her.

"You lied to me." Elena muttered quietly.

"I\'m not lying. I just didn\'t get any reports. Look, these are the sealed area markers in the Fairy Continent. There are still thirteen of them. Nothing has decreased. The Sea God often goes around the world on patrols too." Nell defended herself to avoid any misunderstandings.

"That\'s probably an anomaly like a six-star sealed area. The fairies we saw a few dozen kilometers to the south probably know what\'s going on here. Would you like us to go over there to find out more?" Oceanid also felt that something was odd. He checked his golden talisman, and the number of the markers was the same as Nell\'s.

"That\'s not necessary. Let\'s go to Zhadphis Woodland instead. The Fairy Empress Yralissa Quifiel can provide us with thorough information." Elena shook her head.

Oceanid just nodded and controlled the Gravy Ark to fly towards the north.

The girls could sense the sad feelings of Elysia and her master. However, they couldn\'t do much other than talk to them about things like light-heart and entertaining conversation.
