I, a Super God of Law, Signed a 300-year Contract with the Elf Race Novel - Chapter 24
Chapter 24: My Queen, Something Terrible Has Happened
Chris returned to his normal life back in the Ancient Tree of Knowledge.
When he had nothing to do, he would read a book in the Ancient Tree of Knowledge and take a walk under the setting sun.
He was living a comfortable life.
Alice had encountered a difficult problem in her training again a few days ago. In Chris’s dream, she had only needed a few pointers before she got the hang of it.
It really made Chris feel envious, jealous, and hateful!
It was one thing for her to be talented, but she was also so hardworking.
Chris had been stunned when he saw her just now. Level 2 Archmage?
Alice had just gotten a breakthrough a while ago. Now, not even half a month had passed before she had yet another breakthrough.
Her terrifying speed of cultivation was even faster than a traveling rocket.
Could it be because of the Amalgam Twin Magic?
The question arose in Chris’s mind.
However, he had forgotten something.
There was probably no one less scary than him on this continent.
In less than half a year, he had transformed from an elf who could not cultivate to a Level 3 Sorcerer who had broken through more than ten different ranks.
Was there anyone who could compete against his terrifying cultivation speed?
He was the only one who had truly achieved it on the entire Sacred Continent.
Additionally, he was the only all-elemental mage in the world who had a Body of Nature.
It could be said that he had truly achieved what no one had ever done, or ever will!
Moreover, this was the result of him slowing down his cultivation speed. If Chris had used his previous meditation technique to increase his cultivation.
His current strength might have already surpassed that of a Sorcerer.
He might have even reached Saint-level.
Now, the Band of Laws that Chris had previously condensed were expanding continuously from their initial range of 100 meters to 500 meters.
The benefits of the Band of Laws were self-evident. They could ignore the restraints imposed by the environment and absorb any element they wanted from the world.
They could also increase attack power, speed, and reduce energy consumption. Such a powerful skill could only be possessed by a Saint-level powerhouse.
Chris, who had used his superb talents, had actually managed to comprehend the Power of laws that was possessed only by Saint-level Powerhouses while he was still a Sorcerer.
He had such an impressive battle record, but he was still envious of others.
One had to say it was just a bit too much.
Of course, it was just a casual remark that Chris had made. He had his own goals, so naturally, he would not be easily influenced by others to blindly follow the crowd.
Just as he was coming out of his meditative state, there was a knock at the door.
When he opened the door, he saw the female elf who had brought Chris to the Spring of Life the last time.
“Chris, the Queen wants you to go to the Spring of Life.”
“Okay, hang on!”
Chris returned to his room and looked at the chimera who was struggling in the magic formation. He smiled and said, “Seeing that you’re so obedient, I’ll bring you along!”
He had initially not wanted to bring it along, but he could not tell his Aunt Miene he had left it behind in his room if she asked about it when they met, could he?
Originally, he did not want to bring her along, but if he were to meet his aunt mien, he could not say that he had left her in his room if she asked about it midway.
Chris walked behind the female elf as they passed through the thick forest to arrive at the Spring of Life.
The Elf Queen was already waiting for him in the palace. She had even prepared sweet fruits and fruit wine.
“Aunt Miene!”
Chris could not help but feel his heart clench when he saw the Elf Queen’s haggard face.
Her poison must have flared up again. It had only been a few days since the last time it had happened, and she already seemed so haggard.
It was all his fault. Aunt Miene would not be this haggard if he were not hiding his strength.
Chris had decided that he would get rid of all the poison in Aunt Miene’s body tonight, even if it meant exposing his powers.
After all, there was nothing more important in the world than family.
“Good child, why are you standing there? Come here and sit down, let Aunt Miene take a good look at you.”
The Elf Queen spoke kindly as her love for him shone through her eyes.
Perhaps because her life was about to come to an end, but she had completely abandoned her role as Elf Queen. At that moment, she was fully devoted to her role as an aunt.
“How have you been during this time? It’s been so long since we last talked. I’m really not qualified to be an aunt.”
As the Elf Queen spoke, she picked out some fruits for him from the basket. She kept switching back and forth between them, never satisfied with what she chose.
After choosing for a long time, she finally took out a red fruit and handed it to Chris.
When Chris looked at the loving smile on the Elf Queen’s face, he felt a warmth like the sun wash over him. His throat felt dry as he struggled to control his emotions.
“What am I doing? Is power so important that you can watch Aunt Miene suffer?”
Chris asked himself repeatedly.
Aunt Miene would not have suffered so much if she had been cured earlier.
It was at that moment where Chris really wanted to punch himself dead.
Why? Why was he so stupid? He was too stupid.
You are the dumbest idiot in the world.
Chris gritted his teeth together tightly. His hands curled into such tight fists that the veins popped and his skin turned a pale shade of green.
When the Elf Queen noticed Chris’ strange behavior, she asked, “What’s wrong? Don’t you like the food? I’ll get someone to pick some fresh ones for you.”
To be honest, she was in such a hurry to see Chris because she felt that she didn’t have much time left. She wanted to spend more time with the poor child during the last few moments of her life.
He had been born as an elf in the Sacred Continent. Everything was supposed to be wonderful.
However, he did not have the talent for magic. It was too cruel, especially in a world where magic and combat aura coexisted.
Although Chris did not say it out loud, the Elf Queen knew that he must have suffered a lot in secret.
Fortunately, he had summoned the chimera, the holy beast of the elves, which made up for his regret in not being able to cultivate.
In the future, he could become a powerful warrior and become the elves’ Guardian, just like Mr. Robert, who was respected by all the elves.
“Aunt Miene, your poison…”
Chris was just about to confess to her as he took the fruit from her, but she stopped him.
“You precious child. I know you’re worried about your aunt, but it’s okay. This bit of poison isn’t a problem to me. I’m still waiting for you to get married and give birth.”
At that moment, the Elf Queen had a blissful, beautiful smile on her face.
“Come, try it!”
Under her expectant gaze, Chris took a bite and nodded enthusiastically. “Mmm, it’s very sweet!”
This was the most delicious fruit he had ever tasted. The juice was thick and sweet-tasting.
However, at that very moment, Chris could only taste bitterness in the juice that spread all the way from his throat to the depths of his heart.
No longer able to suppress his emotions, Chris reached out and grabbed the Elf Queen’s hand. The Elf Queen had no idea what Chris was trying to do, and was stunned as well.
“Here to report! We’re in trouble, My Queen.”
Chris was just about to activate the Miracle of Life when someone outside shouted in an urgent voice.
An elf rushed up and knelt before the Queen as they said with an anxious expression on their face, My Queen, something terrible has happened.”
