Ancient God in the Modern World

"Life, I accept your offer. I will become the God of the elves."

After Allen had decided that he would become the God of the elves, the Tree of Life prepared for the transition of faith.

In truth, the Tree of Life did not need faith to get strong, that is one of the reasons why could ask Allen to become the elven God.

One more reason is he knew that he cannot protect the elves on his own. And, at the same time, he also wants his old acquaintance of him to get strong fast by relying upon the elves.

Meanwhile, the tree of life's relation to the elves is like mother and son/daughter. A long time ago, it is said the elves are the children of the Tree of Life. Thus, they were naturally close with the Tree of Life.

On one of the gloomy nights of the Asgardian realm, the queen of the elves is rummaging the library. She was on the section that was only open for her and the Elven King.

She was looking for the ancient record that she had stumbled with back when she was still the queen in training.

The Elven Queen is the religious leader while the Elven King is the chief of the race. Together they held the helm of the elven race. They are the ones with the most authority.

"The elves were birthed by the Tree of Life. The Moon Goddess is the protector of the elves. The Divine Spirit of Life and Death is the patron of the elves. The Divine Spirit of the Mountains is the God of the Dwarves," Alinar the queen of the elves recited.

Then, she rested her head on the table and thought.

"Just like us, the dwarves had not received an oracle from our respective Gods."

"There are records from of our elven ancestors that our Goddess had already fallen on the hands of the Demon."

Most of the elves knew that the moon Goddess has long been dead. Or rather, they thought she was in her Divine slumber. They continue to worship her in hopes that she will wake up again and lift the predicament of their race.

"Had she abandoned us?" Alinar asked herself.

"No, child. She did not abandon you. However, she fell for you."

Alinar heard an aged voice in her ears. At the same time, she could also feel strange holiness in the surroundings.

At first, she thought she was hallucinating. However, as she realized who owned the voice, she kneeled add said, "O, great Tree of Life, please enlighten this lowly child."

"The Moon Goddess had already fallen. Her authority was seized by a Demon. Most of the elves of the elven race had also fallen with her and only a few remained."

"O, great Tree of Life, please enlighten this lowly child how cold I lift the predicament of the race?"

This was Alinar's first time conversing with the Tree of Knowledge.

Ever since the first record was written inside the Asgardian realm, no records are saying that the Tree of Life had conversed with the elves.

"The Divine Spirit of Life and Death will help us. I have already conversed with the Divine Spirit of Life and Death."

After that, she could feel that everything went to normal.

However, she was at loss in what the Tree of Life said.

Changing the religion of the whole race is not easy. Especially since they no longer had a connection with their Goddess.

…

Three days had passed ever since that night.

Alinar still has no idea to guide the race to change their religion.

However, little did she know Allen, the Divine Spirit of Life and Death did not stay idle all that time.

"My queen, this is a very good day today."

Melandrach, the Elven King, greeted Alinar.

"Indeed, my king."

The king and queen are husband and wife.

"The druids had noticed something with the Tree of Life." King Melandrach created a topic for their conversation and sat on one of the seats within the hall.

"What had they found?" Alinar said as she sat on the lap of his beloved king.

"The Tree of Life had been thriving ever since the Divine Spirit is staying here."

"Hmmm, the Tree of Life conversed with me," Alinar softly said as she was lying on his chest.

"Really? What did you talk about?"

The king began caressing Alinar's long hair.

"The Tree of Life said that the Moon Goddess has long been dead."

Melandrach kept silent for a while before responding.

"I have thought of that. Well, not just me. Many had also thought of it. In fact, if not for you, the queen, the race would have already stopped worshiping the Moon Goddess."

"Is that so?" Alinar was rather doubtful.

"Well, it is barely noticeable because of the presence of the Tree of Life. Otherwise, the race would have already rebelled a long time ago."

Sigh!

Queen Alinar sighed then said, "The death of the Moon Goddess is a very big loss of us."

"Indeed. However, the Goddess cannot be blamed because according to the records, she fought the Demons to keep the few of us safe."

"Your majesties, Druid Tarreed is seeking an audience with you."

The voice of an elven knight resonated outside the door of the hall.

As queen Alinar heard it, she stood and responded, "Let him in."

Druids the elves that have a higher position in the elven race. However, the identity as a Druid cannot be given. It was fated. There are ones who could become a Druid while there are also ones that were not fated to.

They are using a type of energy that was derived from the energy of the Tree of Life, called the Natural Life Force. This type of energy is common for the Druids. They are using this to cast their spells.

Also, Allen's seed of faithfulness derived from the Tree of Life. And finally, it was part of the Divine Legacy of the Divine Spirits.

Meanwhile, Allen studied it a long time ago but he concluded that the natural life force could only be cultivated by the elves, and any other race that tries to cultivate it will fail.
