Fallen Chronicles

Chapter 351 Chapter 351: Compensation

After Lena’s words, the underground space beneath the World Tree fell into silence.

After a long silence, the elf sighed and spoke in a very serious tone, “Lena, do you know what this means?”

Lena understood better than anyone else.

The Miasma Mother was the source of all disasters. They had worked hard to defeat her, and if she were revived, the Miasma in the world would continue to exist, and natural disasters and monsters would return. The entire world would once again fall into an apocalypse, and countless living beings would die because of her decision.

But…

“I’m sorry Miyuki, even if you try to stop me, it won’t work. We succubi are different from you noble elves. I’m selfish. If I have to choose between the world and Lord Ashen…”

“I will choose Lord Ashen without hesitation.”

Lena thought that her crazy idea would be opposed by Miyuki.

After all, the elves had always been the guardians of the world, and Miyuki was even a “Guardian” Eclipse class, with a naturally orderly and kind personality.

Her actions were likely to be seen as extremely selfish, even evil, in Miyuki’s eyes.

However…

To Lena’s surprise, after confirming her “determination,” Miyuki simply nodded, as if she understood, and did not show any intention of stopping her.

Moreover…

“How do you want to revive the Miasma Mother?”

“I… I don’t have a clue yet,” Lena lowered her head. She only had this goal, but to implement it would be extremely difficult.

If she were given a lot of time to study the body of the deceased Miasma Mother, as the number one mage in the world, she would definitely be able to find a way to revive the Miasma Mother.

But now the problem was…

There was no time left.

Miyuki’s soul link with Lord Ashen could only slow down the speed of Lord Ashen’s soul separation, but at most, it would not exceed one week before Lord Ashen would completely leave this world.

By then, it would be too late for everything.

And to find a way to revive the Miasma Mother, the source of the Miasma, this mysterious and terrifying existence, in just one week, was almost impossi–

“Use me.” Miyuki suddenly interrupted Lena’s anxious thoughts.

“Use you?”

The succubus repeated in confusion, and the elf nodded.

“Use my body to revive the Miasma Mother.”

Lena was stunned. “You…you must be joking!”

“I’m serious. The Miasma Mother is essentially a collective body of Miasma. In other words, only the person with the most Miasma in their body can become the new Miasma Mother. And in this world, among the five of us, who do you think has the most Miasma in their body?”

Miyuki became more and more relaxed as she spoke, even smiling at the end.

But both Lena in the diary and Renji, who was “reading the diary,” felt uncomfortable in their hearts.

What Miyuki said was true. As the last one among “them” to be contracted in the game, the later the contracted character, the stronger the innate potential.

Miyuki was undoubtedly the one with the highest innate potential among “them.” Although her strength was not as good as Nova’s, this was due to her profession. The Guardian class was never good at solo combat, but on the contrary, because of their large reserves of Miasma, they could become the most durable and solid shields.

“Lena, Don’t make that face. Remember, for us elves, the body is just a shell. You can think of it as… I’ve gained another sister.”

“Sister?” Lena was stunned.

At this time, Miyuki’s eyes were shining, and as an older sister, she said, “That’s right. Besides the fact that I have the most Miasma in my body, if I use my body to revive the Miasma Mother, I can also use my connection with her body to influence and train…cogh, transform the Miasma Mother.”

Miyuki smiled and changed her words, and Lena seemed to see something hidden in the elf’s gentle and virtuous face.

“This way, we can control the Miasma Mother, and let this dangerous existence remain in its infancy. This way, we not only pollute the embryo, preventing the mythical creature from truly descending, but also preserve the world that Lord Ashen and we have saved together.”

“But what about your soul?” Lena asked. “If you use your body to contain the new Miasma Mother, where will your soul go?”

Although Lena was not an elf, she knew some knowledge in this area.

Elves could indeed separate their “spirit and body,” but they could not do it for a long time and must find a new container as soon as possible. Moreover, Lena remembered that elves were usually severely mysophobic.

Letting Miyuki’s soul enter another body, this kind of thing would be strongly rejected by elves, almost from a physiological level.

Moreover…

With Miyuki’s “Calamity” level soul strength, what kind of body could contain Miyuki?

“…!”

‘Wait, she doesn’t mean…’

Lena suddenly widened her eyes, as if she had thought of something. When she saw the smiling face of the elven woman in front of her, the succubus seemed to finally understand why Miyuki, who was supposed to be making such a sacrifice, seemed so willing.

“Hmm, I’ll reside in Lord Ashen’s body.”

“Let me temporarily take over Lord Ashen’s body.”

The only body in the whole world that could contain Miyuki’s soul without causing physiological mysophobic rejection was Ashen’s body.

It should have been a serious topic, but for some reason, Lena had a strange feeling, as if she had fallen into a trap. It was as if she had to let go of her lover with her own hands to get him back, which was a twisted feeling.

However, in the end, Lena still agreed to this proposal, as there really was no better way.

After the two of them finalized their plan, they faced another problem before implementing it.

“Lena, should we…tell the others about this?”

In fact, from the moment Miyuki asked, Lena understood what the she meant.

“Let’s keep it from them for now.”

“Hmph, if that scheming nun finds out about this, I’m afraid she’ll collapse on the spot. As for the stupid dragoness, it would probably take us half a day to explain it to her clearly!”

Although Lena spoke in a domineering tone with a look of disdain on her face, in the diary’s perspective, Renji could hear the succubus’ true feelings.

Lena did this firstly because she did not want to ruin her image in their hearts.

And secondly, for the sake of a larger plan in the future.

She wanted to take this opportunity to “break” their contracts!

At this moment, the succubus subconsciously touched the back of her neck, where the contract she once considered the most precious now made her feel disgusted and nauseous.

Especially when she thought that this might just be a temporary power lent to Lord Ashen by some extradimensional creature.

So she wanted to destroy it.

Destroy everything that did not belong to Lord Ashen. Lena could not accept anyone, including herself or “them,” having even a hint of power other than Lord Ashen’s.

She wanted to wake up her master one day and have him re-

contract “them” with his own true power!

To contract herself.

Lena didn’t care about Ashen contracting others, but if he were to contract her this time, she swore that contracting once would not be enough. She wanted to be contracted a whole night, a hundred times, ten thousand times, until Lord Ashen was completely unable to contract anymore!
