Corrupt Creations

The first thing he noticed was that Arwen was not on the spot she was before, however, just moving his head for a bit, he was able to see her figure sitting in a rock while staring at him.

"You finally woke up..."

"Arwen... How are you feeling? Are you still feeling any pain?"

"No. My body seemed to have miraculously healed and just my energy veins are kind of strained, not letting me gather too much Mana."

"That\'s good!"

"Seth... Were you... Were you the one who healed me?" Arwen asked him despite already knowing the answer.

Instead of replying with some words, Seth raised his hand and the Evergreen Essence revolved slowly and mildly there. It was warm and vivid, an energy that tried to inject life on things around it.

"So, it was really you..."

While Arwen was still recovering from the shock of this discovery, when Seth willed inside his mind and the mild energy pulsed with aggressivity, transforming into the Evergreen Poison Essence the Elf Queen most knew of.

"!!!"

She watched that poisonous green light on his hands unbelieving that entire scene.

"H-H-How...?"

She even stuttered, since in her conception it was something impossible to accomplish. Seth used both hers and her daughter\'s Evergreen Essence, right before her eyes. The inheritance of this essence was something that would put the life of a person in danger, resulting in death, since a person would not be able to handle all that power. That\'s why the World Tree split the essence into two, only gifting it to the right person.

The thought of having both the poisoning ability and the healing ability, was something inconceivable even for the tree itself, much less for the Elf Queen, that was actually witnessing it with her own eyes. Only the deity that had created that power would be hundred percent compatible with it.

Seth took the opportunity that she was lost in her amazement and grabbed her hand while she was still unprepared. His Evergreen Essence entered her body, passing through each of her cells, washing them with a green light.

"What are you..."

"Don\'t worry. You\'ll certainly like it."

Arwen stopped trying to ask anything and decided to completely trust on Seth. Something, she was already doing unconsciously. After realizing what he had done for her on the last twenty-four hours, her guard was completely melted down when she was near him.

The Elf Queen closed her eyes and tried to feel what was happening inside her body. Suddenly, an electrifying shock ran through her entire body, since she realized something.

Her hands started to shake and her legs were threatening to give in. Seth held her, not letting her body fall on the ground. Inwardly, he was already smiling in happiness, since he knew this would be a huge gift for her.

"Y-y-you... Is this real...?"

"It is."

Arwen felt her Evergreen Essence changing insider her body. The oppressive aura she unconsciously released, something that have tormented her for all these years and destroyed the life of so many people she loved, completely vanished.

It was now completely under her control and not something that kept weighing down around her body, like it has always been.

Her hands kept shaking in disbelief and excitement and her eyes started to get moist. Seth felt a warm liquid dropping on his arm and noticed that Arwen was already crying. The Elf Queen, a strong-willed and resilient person, that didn\'t even cry at the moment she thought she would die at Allannia\'s hands, was letting her tears downpour while being held by Seth.

What Seth had just done; was the most beautiful gift she could ever have received, outside of her daughter\'s birth. Something she had never even dreamt of, since she wouldn\'t let her actions be clouded by a hazy hope like that.

However... Right now, she had just received a real blessing. Not from the World Tree Replica though, but from Seth, a person from the race that many elves loathed, however, someone that did way more for the entire elven race than many other elves.

What he had done, was actually something simple for him. After the /seed of Tyranny corrupted the Evergreen Essence and absorbed it, he had received absolute control over it, just like what happened with the Fragmented Law of Fire. He used his control to erase the incompatibilities between Arwen and her version of the Evergreen Essence. With given time, he would even be able to upgrade her essence, adding the healing ability and turning it more complete.

"T-t-thank..."

She felt the poison aura around her vanishing together with the words to thank him, since her emotions were making her unable to form a complete phrase.

Seth understood what she was trying to say and grabbed her hand, feeling the warmth of her vitality. He smiled at her and said: "There is no need for those words, come, let\'s go back and rescue the people stuck inside the dungeon. I was able to find the controller inside the room you told me. We must hurry and bring them outside, since they must be getting worried already."

"Alright." Arwen nodded and was about to use her Mana and support her body, but she forgot her energy veins were dried up and it would take some time for her Mana to recover completely. It would take at least one more week, since her body was a body of a Mana Sovereign cultivator; else, she would take at least an entire month to recover.

Arwen felt a weakness consuming her energy and she had to put her hand on the cave wall to support her body from falling on the ground.

Seth knew that she wouldn\'t be able to go all the way back towards the city like that and decide to offer some help.

"Let me carry you back. You are in no condition to move with your body like that."

The Elf Queen have never felt so incapable and tiny like this before, however, she didn\'t dislike the idea of having someone to rely on. After some time fighting internally, she decided to allow him to carry her, since she thought about the people waiting all this time inside the dungeon.

Seth came at her direction and instead of carrying her on his back, he took her out of the ground like a husband would carry his newly-wed wife.

"Ah..." Arwen felt embarrassed by the way he carried her, since her face would be constantly looking at his. However, she didn\'t complain, since she saw how serious his countenance was.

Seth, on the other hand, was using all his will to show her a respectful and serious face. His semblance was very pure, just like the semblance a devil would make before committing evil.

Arwen decided to not complain and be carried like that. Time was precious and she wouldn\'t be so narrow-minded to put her preferences before her people safety.

Seth used his Mana and departed from the cave.

The Ereinrith city was in a total mess. There were at least hundred or more areas where total destruction had occurred. Until now, there were many dead bodies being found and search groups working on locating possible survivors.

There was a feeling of depression and a bitter taste of powerlessness inside of everyone, since until now, no one even knew what had actually happened. However, that would only worsen, since they didn\'t know about the massacre that happened inside the dungeon yet. Both beasts and Elves lost their lives fighting each other there and less than ten percent of the people that entered the dungeon were still alive.

Seth managed to enter the Central Stadium with Arwen without being discovered. She would explain everything that happened to the public later, but right now, it was more important to rescue everyone still alive inside the dungeon.

Arwen and Seth connected the spare blue orb inside the formation that led to the space inside the dungeon and a blue door opened up in front of them.

Inside the dungeon, a blue wave swept past everyone still alive and they noticed a blue passage opening up at the initial point.

Jiayi had a surprised expression on her face as she looked towards Caizhi.

"Wow! Just like you said Senior Sister Caizhi. He is really a reliable person."

Caizhi lightly smiled.

The Eleventh Palace Master relieved the frown she had on her face. After discovering that the dungeon was sealed and that the Elf Queen and Seth had left to deal with the situation, there were many episodes that she tried to pick up a fight with Elyra, but she reasoned that it wouldn\'t help them at all. However, the bitter taste has never left her mouth.

Only at this moment, she was finally able to relax for a bit.

Two people stepped out of the blue gate and the humans and elves inside the dungeon released a bit of the tension inside their hearts.

Although there was a person that felt even more worried.

"Mother! What happened?" Rina approached while running, since she felt how weak her mother seemed to be. She was even using Seth as a support. Something really big and dangerous must have happened outside, or else, her mother would never show herself in a pitiful condition like this.. Not because she was prideful, but because she was the queen.
