Chapter 1395: The King of Spirits, Freyr.
The King of Spirits, Freyr.
A mysterious figure even to elves themselves.
Very little people across history have ever had the privilege of receiving a divine message from them, let alone met them in person.
I think grandma might have once received some message from him, she did say she talked with him and told me he was...
Very nice?
I thought it was just her personality ruining things there, but it was true, she wasn't wrong!
But seriously, I had such a different image of him, I had imagined...
"I bet you imagined a handsome fairy man wearing a crown, right?" Freyr asked. "I know, Lara also expected that out of me... It is a bit saddening that the mortal children believe I am a Fairy, we're different species. The one you imagined is most likely someone else, the King of Fairies, Oberon. You don't even need to come to the Spiritual Realm to met him, he lives in the Fairy Country."
"O-Oh... I'm very sorry!" I cried. "I won't think like that from now on... I bet the Queen is a butterfly then? Or another moth?"
"My dear Queen resembles a butterfly, indeed! You're the first one to guess it right!" nodded Freyr, suddenly becoming very happy. "Hahaha! I guess you're are indeed quite a smart child, dear Sylphy. Please have more food, eat as much as you want! Your soul must be weary after fighting those true demons, right? So eat away to heal it."
"Hm, thanks!" I happily ate the food he offered me. "Wait a second! It can heal souls? And wait another second! You knew about the fight too, your majesty?!"
"Yes indeed! I felt it," he said. "Through the Spirits with you, and specially that very amazing child you have. Yggdra, the Spiritual Tree you raised personally. She is a very unique being. Lara herself allowed her to evolve even further too. She has expanded and grown once more now, within your dungeon, right? Yggdrasil told me too, and then my wife. A new Yggdrasil was going to be born."
"W-Woah..." I muttered.
There's literally nothing that can escape these Spiritual Deities, huh?
Privacy and secrets are simply just not a thing with them!
Is it the spirits? If they can sense or see anything through them.
Then my whole life... they probably do know me since birth then.
Damn.
"I guess that explains it, you really know me since I was born, right your Majesty?" "Not since but close to," Freyr said. "Anyways, I apologize if it feels strange. I can't help it, my powers work on their own and I see... things, we see many things at once."
"Nah, it's fine," I smiled. "At least I'm relieved it's a good person like you, your majesty. If it was some creep then I would certainly be scared. But you're good!"
"Ahah, you're too nice for a big and intimidating moth like me..." he covered his face with his fluffy legs, putting his antennae down as they moved up and down. "Thank you." Woah he's kind of cute?!
I want to hug him and see how soft his fur is now!
I must resist the urge...
"So why did you call me here, your majesty?" I asked. "You said you've been waiting for me... Was this predestined?"
"Ah, no, I just wanted to sound a bit mysterious, but I did want to meet you one day," he said. "Maybe through Lara in the future, but it seems you've found an incredible item that helped you visit me temporarily. Or well, it might be the aftereffects of a Spiritual Ascension of sorts."
"Ascension?!" I gasped.
"Well, not complete," he said. "But something similar... Your Spiritual Powers have developed greatly, your Spiritual Heart too, it has become different. It is dark now, but not something we're afraid of either. You have both a dark and a light side. It isn't as completely pitch black as you thought. And that curse... it might actually be what could help us in the future, when it finally begins."
"What... what will begin?" I wondered.
"Hmm... I shouldn't talk about that for now," he said. "Sorry but, my wife would kill me if she knew I am telling all our secrets. Sorry."
"A-Ah, it's fine..." I muttered. "Yeah, thanks to the sacrifice of someone, my spiritual heart evolved even further, giving me the power to resist and even absorb the malicious powers my enemies wield. The true demons and the evil gods..."
"It is an amazing power," he sighed. "And yes, we are aware of his passing. The mysterious, dark spirit born from the Curse you inherited from an Ancient Demon King. A consciousness given spiritual form. He was truly the most unique of your children. He gave up his life so you could move on... a noble sacrifice, he shall be forever remembered in these spiritual lands."
"Thank you..." I nodded. "And well, there's another person too, Bark. An Arboren, a plant person I summoned in my dungeon..."
"Oh, yes, we know him too," he nodded.
"Really?!" I gasped.
"Yes, the Arboren, your precious children, so peculiar and beautiful, the first plant race of the world," he said. "They're very spiritual, did you know? With the right technique and abilities, you could even help them further awaken Spiritual Powers. They're very close to Spiritual Races of Nature, such as Dryads."
"N-No way, really?!" I muttered. "Damn... I'm so dumb! How didn't I realize before? Also Ivy and Selene, I suppose you know them well too, right?"
"Yes, Ivy has inherited the powers of the brave spiritual knight Bark, he wielded the power of spirits in his sword. His memories were hazy, but I believe he was once an Yggdrasil Knight. You have many powers, reincarnating people is a wondrous one," Freyr said. "And Selene, yes, the wonderful Saintess, she is attuned with the Nature Spirits, even more now with Yggdra and Naturia's contracts. Both of them are wonderful children. They will grow big, and strong... One day they might help us protect and change the world."
"I see... Wait, you know about Bark's past?" I wondered.
"A glimpse, I saw it," he said, his eyes shining brightly. "That... I think I can talk. Do you want to know, while we still got some more time, Sylphy?"
