Adrian told the Elder Dryad Danaya about his plight and she graciously accepted despite the worried look on Ascalor's face. She easily accepted Elder Willow and his best friend so Adrian immediately picked them up with an aid of another greater demon that Ascalor ordered. The greater demon and Adrian channeled their powers together since interdimensional travel with others takes a toll unless you are an Arch Demon.
Levin Cloud became amazed of how vastly different Alfheim is from Neo Alfheim. He now feels ashamed of boasting to Adrian that Neo Alfheim is the most beautiful city that perfectly combines nature and infrastructure. It seems that Elder Danaya already had contacted someone as there were guards already stationed in order to fetch Levin Cloud and Elder Willow.
The meeting of the elders ended so Elder Danaya returned to Alfheim and told Adrian that she will handle everything. Elder Willow was inserted in some sort of pod that would help him detoxify his injury. The elder had a calm look when he was put inside the pod compared to his pained face that he previously had.
When Elder Danaya saw the Seed of Origin on Levin Cloud's palm, she immediately understood what the dryad that gave him wanted to happen. She could also sense Makiling's lingering memories and sorrow of not being able to protect one's hometown.
"You have been blessed, young one. For a dryad to give you her Seed of Origin, she must have great hopes for you and has seen your potential. Though the road would be difficult because it has been a long time since an elf awakened its sleeping fae blood." Elder Danaya stated to Levin Cloud not to discourage him but to tell him that it will not be easy.
"I will try my best and make sure to successfully complete the awakening process. I need to do it for the lives that those vile monsters had taken. I need to prove that this is just a wall I must climb over before I become the Envoy of the Twin Gods." Levin Cloud stated with such sincerity.
"I see that you are the aspiring envoy. If that is the case then I will gladly help you succeed in awakening into a true fae. The next Envoy of the Twin Gods must come from the fae after all. I need to have some bragging rights." Elder Danaya stated with a joke in the end to lighten up the mood.
"Still for the poison to actually kill off the tree of life, how potent is it that the tree that has enormous life force will be unable to flush it out? Is there a dark god of poisons or something? The poison should still be not that powerful even if it came from a dark god. The barrier should still be disabling its godly powers." Adrian uttered as he wondered how that happened.
"My speculation is that it is not made using only one poison that came from a dark god but an amalgamation of it. It must have taken them immense time and effort to make it because even poisons can neutralize other poisons. They made it for the purpose of killing of the tree of life." Elder Danaya stated.
"It is not that bad right because the destruction is limited to Neo Alfheim anyway. Right?" Levin Cloud looked at the bright side but Elder Danaya's face said otherwise.
"With the tree of life gone, it can no longer hold boss monsters inside the dungeons. More powerful monsters will also appear in the wild. The ecosystem of the world will shift drastically." Elder Danaya stated in a worried face.
[The Tree of Life supporting the all life in Nebulon has been destroyed. The powerful monsters are no longer held back inside their territories. Tread lightly as danger is now always present.]
The world message that everyone heard was not something like a good thing but it was something to be dreaded about. Safe zones are no longer entirely safe and monster attacks will now occur more frequently. The increase activity of monsters might be a big plus for the players but not for the inhabitants of the world.
The chaos that will be generated will definitely affect the livelihood of everyone. There would be sharp rises in prices for commodities such as food because farmlands are no longer safe. Price of Armors and weapons would either become higher or lower because of the influx of defeated monsters. Though Adrian knows what he must do and that is to become stronger.
Adrian must level up until he could kill high level monsters now that they are more rampant. Levin Cloud and Adrian both agreed that they need to cool down. They both log out in order to see what is happening in all parts of Pandemonium.

Adrian logged out and he is surprised to see that his sister Mina also logged out. It seems that she wants to ask something but she just waited for Adrian to come out of the game pod.
"You need anything?" Adrian asked as he searched the posts in the forums.
"I was wondering if you know how I got killed by a level 200 monster that roamed a field area that is for level 120." Mina stated rhetorically.
"The tree of life died so the monster restriction is no more. If only I did my quest a bit faster then I might have saved it." Adrian answered even if he did not need to.
"Tell me everything." Mina stated as she pulled up a chair and Adrian did tell her the summary of events.
"I am pretty sure you were never meant to complete that quest anyway. Did the dryad not get attacked when you received a way to fix the problem? Do not be so hard on yourself as I am pretty sure it was set up to fail the moment you received a way to fix it." Mina stated as she could see that his brother is disappointed with himself.
She knows that Adrian is disappointed when he sighs a lot and scratches his head every second or so. The moment she died in Pandemonium made her immediately search the forums. The trending video is the one where the dubbed Demon made an appearance.
Adrian did a great job escorting the evacuees outside and clearing a path but he knows that his brother would have liked to have done something more. She just came into Adrian's room in order to calm his brother down so that it would not haunt him in his sleep. She could sometimes hear Adrian waking up from nightmares but it was not a regular occurrence.
"You do not need to be so hard on yourself." Mina stated as she hugged Adrian and then he just cried his heart out.

In a room with monitors across it and people wearing futuristic visors…
"How much will the damage be as the destruction of the tree of life has been accelerated than the estimated time frame?" The chief developer stated as he tapped the table.
"The Envoy of the Dark Gods made a deal to power up the faceless ones and now he has another power he can use thanks to the blessing of the dark god with a million faces. The overall power shift will be in favor of the forces of the dark gods." A woman in a futuristic visor replied.
"How about the undead forces of the Arch Lich?" the chief developer asked.
"It seems that they have recovered enough for them to not need the aid of Star Mother's core. It would seem that the war between the undead will now escalate as the tree of life's destruction has lifted their movement restriction. With the holy churches in disarray, the forces of the Arch Lich has a 39% chance of winning the war." A man in a futuristic visor replied.
"Only 39%? Why is it lower than I anticipated?" The chief developer asked as it is not fun if war is one sided. It would be called a massacre instead of war.
"The huge variable is the Netheros, Chief. It seems that he made contact with AI #0 but we managed to intercept him using AI # 13. His existence himself is very difficult to predict as he got missions that would normally take high affinity to acquire. It seems he finds a way to force the AI's to give him the mission. We will manually patch some of them to prevent it from happening easily." The man in a futuristic visor replied.
"He has a knack for getting high affinity quests. We did make the intelligence of the Legendary NPCs unpredictable so it is our fault. Did the system agree to update AI mechanics?" the chief asked as he will not change the AI behaviors if the system did not recommend it.
"Yes, the system has stated a minor upgrade in behavior in order to keep difficult missions not easily accessible." The man in a futuristic visor stated.
"Perform the minor upgrade then. It should have been for next patch but just hotfix it but only what is recommended." The chief developer replied.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
