Alien world

Chapter 1160 82. The Future
The bard who was about to do something suddenly froze in place, as his soul was being pulled out of his body bit by bit.

"A minion of the devil, are you worthy enough to talk to me?"

Although his strength was at the end of his rope, Aidan still refused to give in and held up the Eye of Rudolph, continuing to extract the bard's soul.

"You...can't...ah—"

The soul of the angry bard was captured by the Eye of Rudolf.

Aidan's body swayed, but he managed to keep his balance. He looked back at Annan, who was still a black dot in the distance. He walked towards the World Tree, which was no longer far away.

The roots of the World Tree are like undulating mountains, and the figures walking among them are extremely small.

Finally, Aidan stopped in front of a tree root that was like a city wall but insignificant to the World Tree. He looked back at Annan and the elves who were running towards him, as if he saw the anxiety and ferocity on their faces.

"I won..." Aidan said softly, taking out the Eye of Rudolph.

The sleeping soul of the elven dragon baby was drawn out, annihilated bit by bit from its wings, and transformed into crystal light that sprinkled on the roots of the World Tree.

These nutrients are insignificant to the World Tree... but the entire elves will go crazy because of them——

The son of demigod was absorbed by the world tree as nutrients.

Aidan looked back at Annan and Tedal who had arrived late.

"Back to you."

He kept his word and released Irelanze's soul, which floated towards Annan.

Annan held Irilanze's soul in his hands. In addition to solemnity and uneasiness, he also felt obviously relieved.

"Are we still friends?" he asked Annan.

Annan carefully put her away and said with a strong disappointment: "Not anymore."

His mission had failed. Throwing the mithril necklace to Aidan, Annan turned around and left with Taidel without looking back.

Prince Aidan stood beside the World Tree, enjoying the final peace.

The breeze lifted his long gray hair, and soon he heard a distant horn sound that seemed to come from ancient times.

The fluctuation of divine power appeared in the forest outside the World Tree. Countless tiny black dots rose up, densely packed like locusts, and disappeared into the northern horizon.

That is the direction of the Kingdom.

As the instigator, Aidan seemed to be forgotten, and no one came to look for him anymore...

Until his brother, His Royal Highness the Third Prince, appeared in the opened magic door in front of him with an angry face.

"Aidan, do you know what you did?! Your...your hair?"

"What's wrong? Isn't this exactly the picture we want?"

The third prince shifted his attention from Aidan's gray hair and shouted angrily: "What we want is to start a war, take advantage of the opportunity to gain power, and break the rules, but not to fight to the death with the elves!"

"You will kill billions of people in the kingdom..."

Aidan lowered his eyes slightly: "So we can achieve our goal."

"You're crazy..." The third prince said in disbelief. His eyes fell on Aidan's face and he was a little moved: "Forget it, come back first..."

Aidan held the Eye of Rudolph in his hand and stepped into the magic gate.

Aidan was the murderer, but he had nothing to do with the aftermath. The elves thought this was a provocation from the Kingdom of Paem, and with new hatred and old grudges, they started a war against the kingdom.

The tree people of the Aldor Forest stood up from the ground and walked slowly and heavily towards the kingdom.

The elven dragons came out in droves, carrying the elven rangers and mages straight to the north of Wilhelm.

The elves' vassals also rebelled in the kingdom.

Suddenly, they had to fight a bloody battle with the Elven Court. Even the Kingdom of Paem, one of the thirteen human kingdoms, could not help but hesitate. The kingdom investigated itself and soon found that Aidan was the culprit. They demanded punishment and compensation. However, the third prince refused to hand over Aidan and hid him.

It was too late to do anything at this point, because the elves' army was approaching and a war broke out.

The allies of the Kingdom of Paem were forced to join the war, and the elves had no allies, but as the overlord of the old century... as long as the royal court was united internally, the human Supreme Kings of the entire Wilhelm would barely surpass the elven royal court.

The flames of war spread, and soon spanned the entire Wilhelm.

Orcs and dwarves were forced to join the war one after another, countless people died, and countless forces paid a heavy price. When they learned that the war was entirely the responsibility of the Kingdom of Paem, they forcibly cut off their arms and stayed away from the Elf Royal Court and the Kingdom of Paem.

Beautiful elves withered on the battlefield, but humans died even more. Their blood soaked the soil, and the scarlet soil bloomed blood flowers.

As more and more deaths occurred, projections of the abyss appeared within the kingdom, and demons began to invade.

In order to maintain stability in various places, princes were sent to various places one after another and then died in battle.

The balance of war gradually shifted from the kingdom and the elves to the kingdom, the elves, and the demons.

They brought chaos to the kingdom, and as the land sank, the demons of the abyss finally used a blood sacrifice of millions of people to tear open a rift to the abyss.

Powerful two-winged demons, fire demons, and six-armed snake demons walked out of the rifts and stood on the land of Wilheim again after ten thousand years.

Aidan's elder brother, the third prince, died in a battle with the devil, followed by his relatives, familiar friends, and the people of the kingdom.

Seeing themselves sinking deeper and deeper into the quagmire, the elves withdrew to the Forest of Aldor and used the World Tree to barely block the demons' attack.

The kingdom, which had already suffered severe damage, could no longer resist the invasion of demons and became a paradise for demons.

As time goes by, the tribes of Wilhelm may unite again to drive out the demons, but the damage they caused will always remain in this land...

……

Prince Aidan opened his eyes.

The bard was still in front of him, Annan and Taidel were still chasing him, and the experience just now was just a dream.

"Is this the future you expect?" The bard smiled.

"You're not a devil?"

"I am certainly not one of those who only follow instincts. The ideals we pursue are more noble." The bard extended his hand to him: "Join us, and I will give you the pure land I promised you."

Prince Aidan clutched the Eye of Rudolf and got up from the ground.

"I reject……"

"what?"

"You filthy thing...are you worthy to stand with me?" Prince Aidan suddenly raised his head and activated the artifact in his hand.

"If you use it again, you'll die."

The bard, who had appeared relaxed during both meetings, finally showed a hint of seriousness:
Prince Aidan put on a hideous smile and said, "Before I die, I will take away your minions from hell!"

A bolt of lightning shot out from the Eye of Rudolph, and just as it was about to hit the bard, his figure became blurred and the lightning passed through his outline.

"What? Are the devil's minions afraid of death?"

The bard expressed sympathy: "I just pity the ignorance of the world."

Prince Aidan said coldly: “Get out of here, or I don’t mind letting your ridiculous soul appear in Rudolph’s eyes.”

"You're going to regret this..."

The bard's silhouette and words faded.

Prince Aidan looked around, gripped the artifact tightly, and walked towards the World Tree with unwavering steps.
