They were done packing their stuff which wasn"t a lot. Saito stared at the 4 Shadow Lightning wolves he had, out of which two of them weren"t named yet. He called out for Joergen and said, "Listen Joergen, I will be leaving this place for all 5 of you. You are sufficiently strong to protect them from any harm as long as it"s not a great demon king level threat. Take care of them and protect yourself, don"t get into unnecessary fights."Joergen replied back with a nod, "Yes master, I will take care of them all. Please take care on your journey!"
Saito nodded his head and he walked forwards with Lyra, Reus following him closely. Reus was a bit unhappy to leave behind Nexus as he complained, "Big sister, why can"t we take along Nexus! I wanted to show Nexus to mother."
Lyra pats his head gently and answers him, "She won"t like it if we bring beasts in the forest. Don"t you remember the instructions she gave us when we were young."
He rubbed the back of his head and innocently said, "I don"t remember anything sort of that. Haha…"
Lyra bonks his head lightly and says, "Well, she did say that." Saito continued to laugh at their words, he was thinking "I wonder how the elven kingdom is like. With the way this Theodas was treating me, I don"t think the elves would treat me very well but I guess I have to let them meet with their mother."
Theodas was following them closely, he didn"t dare to go up front and talk to Saito after that beating. He realized that Saito was actually quite kind, he simply beat them around a bit, if he had this much power, he would have little trouble in disposing all of them.
It took them around 3-4 days to get to the Elven Forest where Elven kingdom was situated. For food, there was abundant food in the forest. The flesh of a beast, the fruits and the berries were ingested by them, they were able to comfortably get to the Elven Forest.
[Master, a strong amount of Nature Magic is detected in the air.]
Saito didn"t pay it any attention as he entered the Elven Forest. He took a look at Lyra"s face and noticed that she was smiling brightly.
He pleasantly thought "It looks like she is very happy returning back here. I guess I won"t make things too difficult and would have to suck up my pride here. Though I won"t allow them to go too far."
Lyra also took a look at Saito"s face and moved closer to him. As they continued to walk towards the center of the forest.
The trees slowly cleared up and he saw increased elves in the area. All of the elves stared in their direction, they stared at Saito, Lyra, and Reus"s figures.
They looked confused and somewhat disgusted as they stared at Saito. They were pleasant to see Lyra and Reus. In fact, they were very surprised to see Reus walking around so well.
Saito grimaced the thought "I expected them to look at me in disgust but seriously… how narrow-minded can you get?"
Lyra walked closer to Saito and even held his hand when she noticed the stares he was receiving from her fellow race. She wasn"t happy with the way they were looking at Edwin.
Saito looked down and noticed Lyra holding his hand, he instantly thought "Well, I don"t care now. It"s not like I am coming here for them. I am coming here for Lyra, if she would be happy to meet up with her mother. This is worth it."
They continued to walk for another mile before he saw a huge tree, it was the largest tree he had seen in this world. The tree was surrounded by a great structure which had open windows.
The structure was beautifully made with a round shape surrounding the Tree in such a way that the tree was in the center.
"This is such a great place. I never thought that Elves could actually make a round building so great! From the size of each room and the area available on each floor, it can hold around 1000 elves on each floor. And why is there such a gap between the 4th Floor and the 5th Floor." He continued to observe and think about the structure of the building.
As he stared at the structure around the large tree, he came to understand that there were not a huge number of elves. It seemed as though there were only 400 elves but what astonished him was that he could sense a great amount of magic power in each one of them.
Suddenly, he took a look at Lyra and Reus, he suddenly understood the reason behind the gap "The upper floor must be where the Elf Queen and her family lives. Perhaps that"s where the main hall is as well…"
He took a sudden turn and asked, "Hey Theodas, where do we have to go to meet with the Elf Queen?" Theodas was unsure whether to tell them or not but Reus suddenly spoke up, "Big brother, I know where mother usually is. Follow me Hehehe…"
Before coming here, he had specifically asked both of them to call him big brother. He knew that if they called him master, it would create unnecessary trouble.
Both of them were smart enough to understand that and were following his words. The elves who were observing the three of them from afar slowly approached them with a kind face.
It was Reus who was walking in front so many elves took up the opportunity to come close to him and strike up a conversation.
"Young prince, you have finally returned! The queen was getting increasingly worried about you and young princess."
"It seems like you have been well in the days you have been gone."
Reus was a bit naïve as compared to Lyra and he was caught up there, he started to answer one by one, "I also wanted to meet with mother. Yes, big brother Edwin took care of me. He is really nice."
They turned their head towards Saito who was walking next to Lyra holding her fair hand. Saito noticed a peculiar thing "Most of these Elves seem to be females. Iris, can you a.n.a.lyze the male to female ratio in elven forest."
Iris took a moment to respond because the Elven Forest was very large. After a few minutes, Saito heard a voice in his head [Master, the female to male ratio in this area is 10:1.]
Saito couldn"t help but curse internally "The f.u.c.k. This is the disparity here. I feel like living here won"t be so bad now."
[Another important thing master, it seems that the Nature power is slowly yet surely decreasing from the air.]
Saito wondered about this information "Heh… Well, I don"t really care about this, it isn"t that important to me anyways."
Iris stayed silent on Saito"s thoughts. As Saito and Lyra approached Reus who was still talking to the elven women.
He noticed them coming near to his position and excused himself, "I will talk to you all later. I have to take big brother Edwin to mother. Bye~!"
n.o.body stopped him from going above the floors. n.o.body in their right mind would forbid the prince from doing anything. It was well known that since his condition was known, the queen seemed to spoil him a lot.
Even after it was known that he won"t survive for another week, she had ordered the elves for all kinds of potions to make his body stronger but she won"t let anyone approach him.
And as for Saito and Lyra, they didn"t dare to even approach the both of them. They did want to talk to princess Lyra but the presence of Saito held them back.
And they couldn"t talk to Saito since Lyra was right next to him. The way they were walking close to each other, holding hands, it was clear that they had a very close relationship.

Reus was standing on top of a large platform, he turned around and motioned, "Big Brother, big sister, you both are so slow. Come quickly!"
Saito took a moment to stare at Lyra"s face before both of them nodded. They started to run towards Reus"s position and took a few seconds to reach that position.
