Erolith and Elduin were to a place that they knew really well. Because they had visited this place once when they were crowned as the future Elven King and Elven Priest at the age of ten and eleven, respectively.

They were inside the Sacred Tree, where they could hear the voice of the Sacred Tree. Erolith, who had been mortally wounded, fell on the ground after he teleported. "Big Ero, hang it there!" Elduin caught his Big Ero and wasted no time. He knew the chance was tiny, but he could still bring Big Ero to the Elven Doctor and…

"It's useless, Elduin. Don't you see that I have been mortally wounded? No matter the amount of magic I persevere, I cannot be saved anymore…" Erolith smiled and caressed his Little Eld's cheek. "You know that I've used up all my magic reservoir."

"Big Ero…" Elduin felt helpless and guilty. If only he could control his rage, Big Ero would never get hurt. "Big Ero, please don't leave me. If you leave me, I will never forgive myself! You are the only one I love, Big Ero!"

Elduin started crying again, like the spoiled kid he was when they were kids. "Big Ero… what should I do if you leave me alone…"

"Little Eld, you are an adult already, albeit still a young king. But I believe you can be the wisest king for the elves," Erolith replied.

[Okay, now, why don't I feel pain at all? I've been literally stabbed in the heart. I feel like we are in some corny soap opera that took me the whole scene to finally die.]

[Pupa: I've wanted to tell you something since we've teleported here, but you are too busy with your melodrama. Look at the wood altar.]

Yunyu glanced at the wood altar, and he was surprised when he saw a female figure made out of wood. She had vines as her hair and had a smile on her face as if she was watching a good, live soap opera.

[Pupa: That is the Sacred Tree spirit, she has been standing there, watching you since the moment you teleported here with Elduin. Based on my body scan on you just now, your body is in perfect health, and the wound on your heart will be healed soon.]

[Really? This world is really confusing.]

The Sacred Tree spirit was watching the regular drama inside this world. She sighed in wonder. "Elven King, you can't keep embracing the Elven Priest Erolith forever. He needs to rest first before the wound is healed, you know."

Both Elduin and Erolith looked at the Sacred Tree spirit, who suddenly appeared casually. This was the first time the Elven King and Elven Priest saw the Sacred Tree spirit. Because Sacred Tree only communicated with her voice rather than showing her true appearance.

"Sacred Tree Spirit?" Elduin asked, unsure if it was really her.

"I am, my name is Elleneth. A pleasure to meet you, Elven King Elduin, Elven Priest Erolith," Elleneth the Sacred Tree Spirit introduced herself. She approached the elves and touched Priest Erolith's hand. "Elven King Elduin, your beloved will not die here. But he needs to be healed here for a while," Elleneth said.

"R—Really?! My Big Ero will not die?" Elduin, who had been in despair for a while, finally brightened again.

"You should leave now and return back in a year," Elleneth said.

"A YEAR?!" Elduin was shocked, but Elleneth nodded lightly and pointed at Priest Erolith. "Elven Priest has been stabbed right in his heart. He needs time to finally healed up inside this Sacred Tree. Luckily, he has the essence of the earth inside him, though." Elleneth said.

Elduin's gaze darkened again when he remembered that corrupted beast because the Sacred Tree Spirit just told him that Big Ero was saved because of that bastard.

But right now, the most important thing was Big Ero's safety. Thus, Elduin yielded and nodded. "Please take care of Big Ero," Elduin said. He stared at his Big Ero and kissed his hand gently. "I will return as a good king, Big Ero. Please promise to marry me after one year."

"Elduin, I cannot marry—"

"I refuse to leave until you promised to marry me!"

Priest Erolith felt helpless when Elduin became stubborn again. He was usually magnanimous and patient for his people, but he would always act like a little boy in front of Erolith.

Priest Erolith glanced at Elleneth the Sacred Tree spirit, searching for an answer. The Sacred Tree smiled and nodded at the answer.

Priest Erolith rolled his eyes and nodded. "Okay, Elduin, I will marry you, but I don't want the Elven Kingdom to be ruined because of our marriage. You must be the best king that everybody loves in one year and return back to me. Promise me."

King Elduin nodded without hesitation. "As long as you promise to marry me, Big Ero."

Elleneth finally teleported King Elduin back to the Elven Kingdom while lifting Erolith with the gentle embrace of nature. Erolith was lifted in the air and placed on a bed full of leaves as bedding.

Elleneth sat on the wood beside Priest Erolith and used her left hand to support her cheek. She drooped low and sighed. "Master Yunyu, I don't know what is happening here? Why is Master Han Ye not showing up with you?"

"Huh?!" Yunyu, who had been acting as Priest Erolith, finally broke his acting and gawked when Elleneth suddenly said that. "W—What did you say?! You know my real name?!"

Elleneth was also surprised by Yunyu's overaction. She scrunched her brows in confusion. "Of course, Master Yunyu, you can be funny sometimes. You visited this world regularly long ago, but I don't know what happened, and you stop coming with Master Han Ye."

"Can you tell me what happened, Master? Usually, the world would reset once you finish playing around with Master Han Ye. But a few centuries ago, everything changed drastically, and I don't know why am I stuck in this boring cycle," Elleneth said lightly. As if it was something ubiquitous.

"Y—You know about Han Ye and me?" Yunyu asked. He shook his head because he thought he was hallucinating again right now.

Elleneth shrugged lightly. She covered Yunyu's mortal wound with her palm, and the wound magically closed in less than five seconds, then Yunyu returned back healthy. "You should be more careful about this, you know. You are my Master. I don't want you to get hurt too much." Elleneth said.

Elleneth glanced at Pupa, who should be invisible except for Yunyu. But Elleneth suddenly walked towards Pupa and hugged Pupa excitedly, making Pupa almost jump out of fright. "Ah, Cutiepie, I missed you so much! You are now a Pupa? Aww, you have a tough shell now. I missed you when you were a Larva. You had a squishy smushy body!"

Pupa paused because such a thing never happened in its life. Someone else can see, touch and even chatted casually.

Meanwhile, Yunyu was too shocked to react to this jaw-dropping scene in front of him. "H—How could you see…"

"Huh? What? Why are you questioning me? I am Elleneth! El—le—neth! Master Yunyu, don't tease me like that! Hmph!"
