Everyone started to work hard to rebuild the entire city, although, what they are currently doing, are just the small steps that will lead to a better kingdom in the future.

Rina and Seth were talking with the girls from the Glazed Lake Sect, since the girls were curious about what was actually happening. Seth gave them a brief explanation of everything that have happened, making them have a clear picture of the entire situation.

Right now, they were having a hard time to believe that a fight between two Mana Sovereign powerhouses had just happened above the city. This was something of epic proportions and the destruction they were seeing right now, was caused by only a single technique from one of them.

The one that couldn't believe what she was hearing the most was actually Rina. She would never expect that Allannia was the one behind everything that happened. Right now, she was reflecting on her mother past behavior and Seth's words about how the world outside was cruel and unpredictable.

The Elf Queen finished instructing the leaders of the "Nature Roots" and approached Seth's group while saying: "Sorry girls, I would like to borrow Seth for some time."

"Eh?! Don't worry Your Majesty, you can borrow him anytime. I guarantee you that I won't let Caizhi get mad because of that." Jiayi started to talk, but her words were almost throwing Caizhi into the fire.

"Don't worry, this is going to be quick." Arwen smiled and signaled for Seth to accompany her.

"Can I help you with something, Arwen?"

"Sigh... You know that in the state the city is in right now, it will be impossible for me to give you any treasures or rewards for what you have done..."

"You shouldn't worry about that..."

"No. I have to... Listen... Right now, there is something I need you to do for me. Something cruel. And only a person that I have absolute trust in, can accomplish that. However, it is also something that will bring you many resources and treasures."

Seth listened to her with a serious countenance. He knew Arwen would never ask him to do something cruel, unless it as absolutely necessary.

"I want you to erase the entire Luberus family from the surface of this continent, be it the important elders or the servants that works in their family mansion. Except for the innocent children, I want you to kill everyone else."

Seth listened in silence.

Arwen continued: "This sin will fall over my shoulders... Their blood will be staining my hands, not yours... You are only the knife that I'm borrowing to butcher them, eliminating the future trouble. I don't want another Allannia appearing again... This time we might have been lucky, however, I don't want to be counting with the luck factor in order to live. As the queen of an entire nation, I can't be so unreasonable to people that don't deserve it on the surface. And that's why I only have you."

Arwen closed her eyes and clenched her fists. This request she was asking Seth to do, was something she would never consider doing, before the things that have happened. Sometimes it was better to cut the roots, not letting any possibility of a dangerous person appearing later.

Seth walked towards her and grabbed her hands, giving her some warmth.

"This is something you won't be carrying alone. I will be the knife that will be stained with blood together with your hands."

After saying those words, he vanished from the Central Stadium, leaving behind that warmth that touched her deeper than anything.

"... Thank you." Arwen said in a low voice, still feeling the temperature of his hands on hers.

Seth departed from the stadium in silence. He was about to kill many people he didn't even know who they were, however his eyes were not turbulent and he wasn't in the least indecisive.

"Why did you agree with her?" Lexi's voice ringed inside his head.

"Because it was her that asked me to do it."

"You are acting because of a woman once again... Going as far as risking..."

"No Lexi... I'm not acting because of a woman... I'm doing it because it is Arwen that asked me to do it."

"Hmph! How does it change anything?!"

"It changes everything. She is not just someone I've met randomly anymore..."

"I don't see any difference."

Seth chose to not discuss with Lexi anymore. After some time in silence, he said: "You and I know, that this world is not a kind place where everyone will be able to leave peacefully forever. If this Luberus family is a threat to someone I like, then I'd rather destroy them early on, than letting them grow and hurt someone I care later."

While he was dashing through the destroyed streets, moving towards his destination, Thellor came back to the Central Stadium together with the important figures that constituted the echelons of the Elven Kingdom.

Many of them were feeling sadness and anger, since they lost someone of something important because of what happened, but none of them had the courage to say anything before the Elf Queen.

Arwen looked at their faces and could feel that they were lost. It was natural for them to feel like that, since until now, no one even knew what have happened.

Ivasir came back to hear her words as well. He already had a list of potential people, but it would take some time to study it and select the candidates.

"I see that most of you are here, and I can assume that those who aren't are probably dead or badly hurt... However, we are still alive so we must rebuild this whole kingdom and serve as a pillar for the others that are worse than we are."

The Elf Queen started her speech. She was feeling weak and being supported by her daughter, but she was able to pass the feeling of an immovable mountain for everyone.

"First of all, I have to ask everyone for your forgiveness, since it was partly my fault that this situation ended like this. My ability as a queen is questionable, since I've let my subordinates cause the deaths of so many..."

Nobody understood her words till here, but they remained silent, waiting for the rest.

"Chief Commander Allannia and the Leader of the Luberus family, Elyon Luberus; are the masterminds behind what happened. They planned to imprison me inside the dungeon and take control of the whole city. I was na?ve enough to fall in their trap, not being able to protect the core of our elven race in time."

'Elyon and Allannia?' No one could believe that such influential people would be the ones behind everything.

Thellor heard everything, but his attention was caught when the Elf Queen talked about the core of their race. He was the first one to ask a question.

"What do you mean by the core of our race?"

"They included our ancestor in their plans, that is why the World Tree Replica was destroyed by Allannia in the process."

Boom!

The elves felt their entire beliefs shaking. Their god has been destroyed?

"No."

"Impossible!"

"You don't need to doubt my words. You are free to check the place where the Secret Garden existed; right behind the castle. Once you see it, you will believe me. Not only they destroyed the sacred tree, they used forbidden methods to kill almost everyone inside the dungeon. They killed our ancestor and killed our descendants at the same time. Our race has never been so thoroughly defeated..."

A huge clamor started to spread. Most people still thought that their descendants were inside the dungeon until now. However, the nightmare they thought that had descended on them that night, had actually happened inside the dungeon as well.

Many of them knelt on the ground and started to cry, while others stood still in shock.

This was a tragedy for the whole kingdom and only time would be able to sooth this pain.

While Arwen was telling everything that happened in detail. Seth was already standing before the gates of the Luberus family.

Everything seemed to be calm around there, like nothing was really happening outside.

Seth activated his Soul Sense and was finally able to see what was actually happening. Inside the mansion, there were some secret rooms that led to underground secret chambers. There were many elders deactivating the formations and throwing away the source of Elyon's experiments.

Many bodies were being disposed of, while on another very secretive room, many important figures were sitting and discussing their next move.

"Master Elyon died... Do you think this sin will fall on us?"

"Of course! He was the mastermind, but we worked together with him. We have to eliminate whatever proof connecting us to his plans, or else our family won't be able to survive."

"Grand Elder is right! However, I think we need to leave this city as soon as possible too. After the dust settles, we can come back and start operating once again."

Seth observed them with his Soul Sense. He was already marking the position of everyone he would be silencing.. Right now, he thought that Arwen hadn't given him an evil task, but a very huge gift.
