Corrupt Creations

He was a smart business man and he had never heard of Elyra coming out to greet a guest before, so something was definitely different about this.

Seth smiled as he was left alone behind. Even Arel had some work to do and had to excuse herself as well.

Fortunately, it didn\'t take too much time, before he was able to see Elyra\'s figure moving out of the main building to meet up with him.

Impressively, she was not wearing anything extravagant, but her normal elven clothes. That very long green dress, served her perfectly, but Seth thought he would be able to see her wearing something fancier. Unfortunately, he was wrong.

"Elyra... I\'m sorry that I came here so early, it\'s just that I was very anxious for this." Seth chose to not compliment her appearance, but if he had chosen to do so, it would be less effective for her, than him saying he was anxious to this day.

However, Elyra was a hard to break rock, so after a few micro-changes in her expression and mood, she returned back to that business-like stance of hers. Actually, there were other reasons she didn\'t want to appear pleased.

"It\'s good that you arrived here earlier than I thought. This way, we can leave sooner as well. Let\'s go, I want to show you a certain place."

Seth nodded and they left the Allakiir mansion together, but no one thought they were going to a particular date or anything similar. Everyone who saw them, thought they were probably doing some work together.

Elyra wasn\'t dressed like a person that was going to a romantic date, but to a normal day of business, and that\'s why it didn\'t raise any suspicions on those who saw them together. However, her way of dressing told Seth a lot more than he expected to discover at first sight.

There was something wrong and she would probably tell it to him when they arrive in the place that she wanted to show him.

But for Seth, there wasn\'t a problem. He would enjoy the date with her as if it was a normal one and then try to resolve the problems she would present, at the given time.

After they arrived at the outside, Elyra suddenly said: "There is only one way to arrive at the place we are going, so make sure you follow me closely."

After saying those words, she activated her wind elemental energy and started to fly away.

Seth observed her actions for a few seconds, before doing the same thing and following her.

Throughout their journey, there were times that Seth noticed she wanted to turn her head back and tell him some things, but she forced herself to remain looking towards the front, focused on reaching their destination faster.

Clearly, Elyra\'s mind was divided into two lines of thought that fought each other, but the one that made her give up trying to talk with him, was winning until that moment.

Seth decided to shift his focus from her, to the environment and he realized they were flying to a mountainous region at the outskirts of the Ereinrith City.

The scenery they were passing through, was very fresh and beautiful, but other than a lot of vegetation, rivers and mountains, there wasn\'t anything else that could pick his interest. Only after traveling for some time, he saw something different.

Actually, it was a very tall mountain, that managed to pull Seth\'s attention towards it. The peak was located so high above the ground, that just like Misty Horizon, there was a white veil covering it. However, this particular mountain was not covered by the clouds, but by a formation, and Seth was only able to differentiate it from normal clouds, because he was a very strong powerhouse, a person that could easily be considered a Mana Sovereign middle-stage Realm cultivator, even though he was not.

Impressively, Elyra was bringing him towards that mountain, what made Seth get very interested on it. That formation was probably built by her family.

When they approached closer to that area, Seth was able to feel the wind elemental energy coming from that area.

"That place is one of the Allakiir family hideouts. We only use this, in case of need. At that time, when Allannia tried to steal the Elf Queen\'s position, a few of our must promising youngsters were temporarily moved there, where they could stay safe for some time. However, right now, there is no one staying there anymore."

Elyra suddenly started to tell Seth a bit of the story regarding why that place existed.

"Why did you bring me here?" Seth was really curious on why Elyra would bring him to a hideout.

"Let\'s go. You will understand after seeing it."

Elyra approached a bit closer to the formation and she started to interact with it. A few seconds later, a passage opened up in the midst of all that white fog. She moved inside, quickly disappearing from Seth\'s sight. Since there was only one way, she decided to go first, knowing he wouldn\'t get lost.

Seth followed her and vanished shortly after.

After moving for a few seconds, everything in front of him cleared up. Seth was finally able to see the peak of that mountain and everything else that was built on top of it.

Impressively, there was a very large and beautiful building right at the peak of that mountain. But it wasn\'t what attracted Seth\'s attention the most.

What actually made him feel that this whole place was special, was the fact that from the inside, he could pretty much see everything happening on the outside of the formation. The view someone that lived in that building had, was practically perfect.
