Chapter 801  : Decision

imperfectluck Editor: Kurisu

“A new Fire Elemental God? That’s something incredibly important. Why didn’t you report it?”

“I did report it five days ago. However, I’ve yet to receive a response even now. Did something happen at the Cloud Tower?”

Naturally, Moti’s report wasn’t going to receive any response, as the Truth Symposium was extremely busy ever since five days ago which was when the battle ended in Sophocles’ self-destruction. The Truth Symposium naturally wouldn’t have the free time to respond to an “unimportant” report.

However, this news was incredibly important to me.

“The new Fire Elemental Goddess has such a strange name. Apparently, she’s called Alyssa.”

Alyssa? If the new Fire Elemental Goddess was Alyssa, then I would be Ronald. Still, it was rather normal that names would sometimes be confused due to translation and pronunciation.

Still, rather than surprise or confusion, my first reaction was a strange feeling of “it really was her, after all”.

Elisa was the Flame Sea Marchioness to begin with. She also had the ability to control fire and ice and devour and evolve abilities. Due to all this, since the Fire Elemental Plane was filled with “delicious food” everywhere, as long as she had enough time, abandoned all limits, and “constantly evolved” herself, she would likely become an existence that no Fire Elemental Lord could possibly defeat.

However, I was rather frustrated and even sad, due to something else…magic

“It seems that she still doesn’t trust you. No, perhaps it’s precisely because she trusts you that she chose this path.”“No, I’ll do my best to find a third method that can have the best of both worlds. I’ve actually already prepared a final plan just in case for the worst. For instance, I could create a tiny house out of adamantite which contains plenty of food and defenses and have the Chaos Girl fall into a deep sleep before sending the house to the core of some other dimension. We can then release her after the war is finally over. Or, I can use the method and coordinates I learned from Beifeng to send the Chaos Girl out of the Eich universe entirely and into another universe. Although it would be a pity that she wouldn’t be able to return here, it’s still better than dying here.”

“…To certain people, this would be a fate worse than death.”

Harloys shook her head as she felt that saying such a thing was useless. Elisa would definitely never agree to Roland’s plan.

I shrugged as I said that it was a final plan just in case for the worst. At the very least, it would be much better than having to choose to sacrifice Elisa.

However, it was obvious that Elisa had already chosen to believe in herself only. Successfully ascending to become the Fire Elemental Goddess was also a type of sacrifice. Although she now controlled the Fire Elemental Plane, she would also become permanently connected to the Fire Elemental Plane. This connection should be eternal as long as Elisa’s soul remained alive.

If Karwenz still wasn’t willing to give up his attack, then he would have to face the Fire Elemental Goddess Elisa and the combined might of the entire Fire Elemental Plane.

As I previously mentioned, an Elemental God wouldn’t be any weaker than a Main God when in their home Elemental Plane. Elisa wasn’t weak at all to begin with. Now that she gained even more strength by ascending to Godhood, Karwenz definitely wouldn’t have an easy time with her.

“Let’s go see how things are on the battlefield.”

The information I received was now three days old. The chaotic domain was still being analyzed. Very little was known about it yet. Karwenz was already attacking the Fire Elemental Plane at this time. Considering the size of all Elemental Planes, if Karwenz’s goal was to kill the Fire Elemental Goddess, it would be quite normal to have to fight here for several centuries. No matter how special the circumstances might be, the battle should still be continuing even now.

I kept feeling like Karwenz was becoming unreasonable. Trying to forcefully attack the Fire Elemental Plane was absolutely not a wise decision at this time. But, when looking at things from a different standpoint, it was perhaps Elisa’s move that forced him into a difficult spot.

“Maybe there’s a chance for us here…”

If we could obtain Elisa’s assistance, we could stall Karwenz’s main army or even Karwenz himself here. That would significantly reduce the pressure on our side in the mortal plane’s chaotic domain. Here in an Elemental Plane, it was possible to endlessly create new Elemental Lords and high-level elemental creatures, making them the best possible source of cannon fodder in the world.

I knew quite well that attacking an Elemental Plane wouldn’t be a wise decision. Back in the day, I had forcibly challenged Emordilorcan because he had gone far too overboard with his attacks against the Northlands, but even more because he had been seriously injured already. Being able to win against and even kill him was mainly because he had been away from the Earth Elemental Plane for too long. It was only normal that his connection to the Earth Elemental Throne was rather poor.

I was quite impressed with Karwenz’s confidence in trying to challenge an Elemental Goddess who was in perfect health, and had infinite power in her home plane and also infinite revival capabilities.

“Don’t be so confident yourself. Karwenz probably has a guarantee since he’s dared to do this.”

I nodded in agreement with Harloys. Right now, our primary goal was to find out what Karwenz’s guarantee was.
