Novel Full Chapter 202

“These notes are very interesting… They talk about the different folk that lived around the tree and more. It seems this ancestor of you was very amazing. And it is told so realistically that I doubt it was a fairy tale made up by him. Even the part where he… he does it with a lizard woman.” I said.
“Y-Yeah, that’s a bit weird…” Said Eric. “But if we ignore that, we can find a lot of interesting information I had never hear or read anywhere else before! I was mostly scared of even searching for this place primarily because of this knowledge though. He always talks about how dangerous the monsters are there…”
“Hm… You’re right. We’ll have to gain a lot of blessings (levels) before we even reach that place. We’ll better explore the continent and find powerful monsters or demons before even moving out.” I said to Eric, as he seemed to nod.
“You’re right!” Said Eric. “Ah, there is more info here, the last notes are about my ancestor interacting with the Elves. They said a lot of things I didn’t understand well though…”
“Oh? Let me see…”
What was in the notes was as follows:
“After two years of interacting with the Elves at a surface level, and with the help of the Female Lizard Woman, who resulted to be an important figure in the tribe, I was able to finally communicate more with the pointy-eared people. This lizard woman ended being unexpectedly helpful, and I am rather happy I met her. The Elves were zealous but found me “pure-hearted” after seeing how a lizard woman had opened her hear to me. They said that “If the dragon descendants have found you worthy of their love, then perhaps you’re not half bad.” And since then, I was accepted in a small village below the Yggdrasil’s roots. I was forced to move with the lizard woman of course, because she was my translator as well. …I also had no idea the lizard people were descendants of dragons.”
“Since then, I have begun to interact way more with them. The Elves are very prodigious at the usage of magic, and they seem to naturally have multiple spirits. Some even had the power to create or enhance spirits, modifying them and increasing their power at will using magic or materials harvested from the forests. I saw some of them acquiring new spirits by merely interacting with the Spirit Tree, something wondrous I never thought I would see with my very two eyes. For all of us humans’ spirits are very hard to obtain and make stronger, but for Elves they’re varied and an everyday allies. They’re treated as friends, helpers, and even citizens that stand equally to them. I have yet to see them with a definite spirit, as they seem to have multiple ones which they share around… Do they even have Spirit Orbs?”
“The lizard woman had self-proclaimed herself my wife, and used this pretext to aid me into meeting the Elf Queen, the leader of the elves. It seems all tribes in this area are at peace and respect one another. The Elves cherished how the dragon descendant, the chief of the lizard folk, had found a husband in a human, and the Elf Queen, finding this something incredibly rare, called us to meet her.”
“She was a woman said to have lived thousands of years, if not hundreds of thousands of years. Her eyes shone as bright as pearls and her hair was pure white, reaching down below her ankles. My self-proclaimed wife was angered how much I was eyeing her, slapping me from behind with her tail multiple times until I snapped out of the enchanting charm of the Elf Queen. Despite being so old, she looked as young as a girl in her early twenties. She spoke about many things, finding this union strange yet interesting, and saying that our child was going to be the Dragonborn… I had never heard of that, and I was even more shocked when I realized the lizard woman was supossedly pregnant with me… I suppose I am a father now.”
“I learned many things, secret about magic, how to treat plants, how to make them grow. I learned the essence of magic. How great it was, and how vast everything was. I learned to connect myself with nature and the elements, the spiritual energy flowing through my soul and my body. I spent five years with them learning all I could, and those five years were something I will never forget. I spent such time with her, the lizard woman, named Elrathinn. She was apparently the long descendant of Fafnir, and ancient dragon god. Our child was born quickly, as an egg. And she took care of it for around 6 months until it hatched. Unlike the lizard folk, he was half human and half dragon. The elves seemed very happy, as if he was someone destined for greatness. We called him Fafnir, after the ancestor of the lizard folk.”
“After all these years. I learned things I never could had guessed from the Elves. The truth of the world. The truth about the tree… The tree itself was designed long ago to purify the world from contamination and malice. The Elves call the Yggdrasil’s parents as the “Ancient Creators” who perished by the same power of their creation as the tree turned against them. An Era of darkness was quickly purified by the tree. The tree brought back life to a dying world, the Ancient Creators remained somewhere, they were not all gone! However, the tree created the elves, the people, everyone here from its fruits… We are not simply living our daily lives without a greater purpose. There is something deeper in all of this… But I fear that I might not be the chosen one for such a task. I have already done my part. My little Fafnir will now live with my mother, as she had told me that it was my time to go back to my home. I felt sad, I wanted to stay longer with her and my son, but I understood I didn’t really belonged here… If someone ever read this, please, find my son, and tell him that I love him more than anything.”
