Chapter 327 – Yggdrasil

It was too much.

Maybe he was a little excited when he heard that traditional elven wine was good for men. I’ve been drinking like crazy for the past few days. In fact, the level of drinking instead of water.

Of course, I didn’t drink without thinking. I thought that drunkenness could be blown away by mana management, and even if it wasn’t, the body would be strong and this would be no problem.

To add a little excuse to that, I guess the limiter was lifted in many ways after I was able to use Yonginhwa…

If you look at the old story, there is a dragon who does everything a little too much, doesn’t it?

Piling up a mountain of treasure, kidnapping a country’s princess after revealing a woman, or building the world’s largest library by indulging in knowledge.

I was just like that.

I didn’t get drunk thanks to the frequent use of magic, but should I say that I was drunk with the medicinal effect that was more effective than I thought.

It’s not an exaggeration, it’s a real elixir level with limited energy.

It’s not that I haven’t been lacking so far, but isn’t this kind of thing, the stronger the better? How many girls do I have

… It should be able to withstand at least 6 cycles in a row.

Alright, here’s the problem.

The effect of the drug was satisfactory, and it was not that I was too drunk to do what I had to do. If so, what was too much?

The problem arose in an unexpected place.

“My erection won’t subside…”

“Shall I take one step off, Master?”

“It looks like this even though Fei-senior dealt with it until just now. I don’t think I even have a chin for a few feet.”

As she let out a sigh, Iona, who was listening nearby, giggled and patted my butt.

“That’s right. You should drink in moderation! It’s not even lacking right now, so why are you so greedy that you drank it?”

“When I was enlightened the other day, I felt the need for a little bit because the time of the wise came after a long time…”

“Yandel students… Is that normal? Anyway, it’s not long before Yggdrasil, so you want to do something quickly, right?”

“Yes. Anyway, it’s kind of like meeting the chancellor with a tent in your pants.”

“Good! Good! Then leave it to Professor Iona! We should be able to figure out the cause!”

After saying that, Iona flicked her hand. Reflexively responding to her familiar gesture, he held out her neck and bit her without hesitation.

Jjoooook-

Long, but Iona sucked her blood and drank just one sip.

She licked her ruddy tongue and savored her taste for a while, then she nodded her head confidently.

“I can do anything with this! It’s a temporary measure, but the effect will be sure!”

“As expected, Professor Iona! I was counting on you! What was the problem?”

“Yes? Yes? Not a big deal. It’s just a side effect caused by taking too much of it and not fully absorbing the medicinal effect, and remaining in the body for a while. You’ll get better with time. In the meantime, I can handle it.”

“Oh oh! How?”

“Simple. If you just suck blood through your lower leg…”

“I’ll just live and die like this.”

When she spoke with a straight face, she giggled and laughed.

“Joke! Joke! It’s enough to just suck a lot of blood! Because the Yandel student’s body is concentrating on recovering the lack of blood, it won’t send blood down for a while!”

“What. Was it like that? Then, I will ask you later when you arrive at Yggdrasil.”

“Ah, if it’s okay…”

“You mean you want to drink in a tolerant state? There’s nothing wrong with that.”

She nodded her head willingly, and Iona jumped in her place and shouted.

“Iona great victory!”

It was a little cute.

***

A few hours later

Upon arriving at Yggdrasil, he returned the stopped Nidhogg back to its original state and got off with the wagon.

Naturally, her blood was sucked by Iona, and the unexpected side effects of her were also suppressed for a while.

The moment she let out a sigh of relief and stepped out of Needhog.

Elves who seemed to work under Prime Minister Milone were there to meet us.

Did you get an estimated time of arrival from Nidhogg as well?

Unusually, everyone was wearing suits-like clothes, but among them, the man in the lead, wearing a particularly fancy suit, bowed his head respectfully.

“Welcome, Duke Lindelheit. It is truly an honor to come to Alfheim like this.”

“… Ah, thanks for the hospitality.”

For a moment, Duke Lindelheit was startled, wanting someone. Still, he knew it was me a beat late and tried to nod his head.

“It’s embarrassing. Please keep your voice down. Although we are in charge of Alfheim’s official duties, we are just ordinary citizens.”

“…”

Seeing him bowing his head one step faster and deeper than this one, he managed to give strength to his neck and finish it with a snapping line.

Instead, he lowered his voice slightly and continued speaking in a deliberately solemn voice.

“Not so.”

“I just want to thank the Duke for his generosity.”

I was obviously speaking halfheartedly, but it was a strange situation to be thankful for. Maybe it means thank you for listening to your request?

Come to think of it, it’s the first time I’ve been treated as a duke because I shut myself up in the academy as soon as I received the duke’s title.

This… Authority?

As I was bewildered by the power of power I had tasted for the first time, fortunately, the other side spoke to me first.

“My name is Edda, the first secretary under Prime Minister Milone. Will you grant me the honor to accompany the duke?”

“I won’t allow it.”

“Yes. Then the wagon…”

“It is a treasure of the Righteous Light Church, so treat it with the utmost respect. Take special care of the horses.”

“I will try to live up to your expectations.”

Eda nodded again and glanced at the men behind him.

It was a light, insignificant signal, but the other attendants understood it perfectly and accepted the reins from Helena.

They were also wearing uniforms similar to Edda’s, and they matched the slender elf’s body shape quite well.

It’s a world where everyone wears a school uniform at the academy, so it’s nothing strange to have a uniform that resembles a suit.

However, elves are a race that does not go out of style compared to other races because of their long average lifespan, and likes old-fashioned fashion.

There’s a reason those elves wear uniforms.

On Earth, there was a story that some of the H&A developers had a nasty uniform fetish, but… Once you have the right settings attached.

Before the Great War. Although it was a child born before becoming a god, there was nothing as sacred as bloodline to the elves, to whom the circulating bloodline of life still continues.

That is why the King and Queen of Alfheim were always chosen from among the High Elves, and even those who were not elected enjoyed a luxurious life as royalty.

No one objected or questioned it. No wonder. Aren’t they born as descendants of God in a world where God exists?

But the problem was when the war of the gods broke out.

The high elves’ lineage was virtuous, but other than that it turned out they weren’t much different from other elves.

A coward who runs away from the enemy, an incompetent person who loses allies in vain by insisting on the wrong tactics, an idiot who forces his subordinates to sacrifice to live alone, and so on.

After countless sacrifices, the elves of Alfheim realized that high elves are not necessarily better than themselves.

So they earnestly prayed to the circulating life that was their god and mother.

Life circulating in the midst of an imminent war admitted that their wish had some truth.

Thus, the high elf lost his real power and fell into his religious symbol, still holding the position of lord of Alf Heim, but that was all.

If the high elves reign but do not rule, who rules Alfheim?

The answer was simple. The person with the most ability, regardless of origin, takes the position of prime minister and becomes the de facto ruler.

Thanks to this, Alfheim, who had been on the verge of destruction for a moment, managed to revive, and has maintained the way it was at the time until now.

And that uniform is a symbol that he has proven his ability, and proof that he has struggled for a better future.

It was an attire that only the prime minister and public officials under his command could wear.

Because of this background, Iris and Elisha were shunned by Alfheim as soon as their slavery sentences were confirmed, despite their status as high elves.

For today’s elves, high elves are sacred, but they are not inviolable.

I glanced at Iris and Elisha. Fortunately, the two of them walked behind me without showing anything. They even smile when our eyes meet.

Maybe it’s been a long time since I’ve been in the middle of a long time ago.

Rather, Familan’s family was restless watching Iris and Elisha’s notice.

Well, Elisha said she was misunderstood in the first place and she was framed, so this time she will be reinstated. Then it will be fine.

Iris… Hmm… Go for it!

I caressed Iris’s white hair.

Even though she tilted her head, Iris smiled happily when he petted her.

Huh. If you like it, that’s it…

Anyway, I went up to the ground with Edda and the others. The exit arrived shortly after. Let’s take a step beyond that.

“Huh.”

Open space. A huge city filled the field of vision.

Buildings made of trees and grass. But it’s much more sophisticated than what I saw at the theme park at the entrance of the Great Forest.

It’s a scene I’ve only seen at H&A, but seeing it in person is impressive. But the real thing was different.

A strangely dreamy city. Located in the center is a tree that grows to the end of the sky and spreads its branches wide enough to cover the world.

World tree.

The avatar of circulating life, the spiritual support of the elves, was watching over us.

… What. Isn’t it okay to eat one leaf of a tree this big?

She tilted her head while fiddling with the leaves of the World Tree in her bosom.

For some reason, she felt a trembling vibration at her fingertips, but it must be because of her mood.
