[Inside Forest Dungeon]
[True Beastman Group, Dark Lion Simba point of view]
"There's nothing on the 25th floor from the Kiserre's side of the dungeon"
"Likewise, there's none of the Avery and the other heroes traces from the cursed land side"
"Keep on searching" [Simba]
"Yes sir!"
I know that the dungeon is a vast place, more so with how the jungle is like that of a deadly labyrinth, it east to hide something, but, to leave behind to traces whatsoever, that's only plausible should they went to a different dimensions, but...
(Considering none so far know the exact location of The Tree of Life, and based on our finding, or better yet, we can't find anything, that could only mean...) [Simba]
It's possible, that the infamous tell from the Doppelganger, that the Holy Beast of Light, Angkasa actually make a...
"Boss! We found a trader"
"Idiot! Don't you know, we should just leave them behind like boss always said and..."
"No. Stay here" [Simba]
Taking my sword out, and imbued it with fire magic, I stop the carriage. If possible, I don't want to involve any civilian
"Please help us!"
"This is..."
"The True Beastman Group!"
"Shit... We are just some low ranking adventure"
"Holy Beast of Mirage, Titania! Hear me out!" [Simba]
"Wait! What are you doing!"
"Let go of her!"
"~STAB~
"""GYAAAAH!!!"""
"I'll keep massacring people should you not show me where the Avery is, and" [Simba]
Using the power of the Holy Beast of Fire within
"Burn to ashes" [Simba]
The forest, from the lush green forest now become nothing but a ground made up of ashes

"Find as many people as possible. Hold them hostages, and kill them with each passing time" [Simba]
"Right!"
"Finally!"
"It's killing time"
"Perhaps we could take their women and..."
"You monster!"
"Perhaps..." (With this, there's no turning back for me... But) [Simba]
Those two princes, they better keep their promises for our goals

Farhah, she's in terrible pain, and her temperature suddenly spikes up, nearing 40 degree celcius. Anymore than this, and it will prove fatal. Even of she survives, I'm afraid there will be some sort of permanent disability left behind
She's experiencing a severe mana intoxication. Her body keep receiving mana of plant, way beyond her limit, and to compensate for it, her body is trying it best to adapt, trying to become stronger but
"What did God of Earth do? This is way beyond any Avery can take" [Ant Aries]
"I don't know, but if I have to take a guess, that will be..." [Titania]
We are all waiting for The Fairy Queen, Titania to continue her sentence
"She is planning to make Farhah, the next Mother Earth..." [Titania]
"Hold on! You mean, Farhah will become the next God of Earth!!!" [Calypso]
"Ascension to God, it's something that is forbidden, so no, she wouldn't be the next God of Earth, but she will fill the role of Mother Earth, and as such, that's why her body is..." [Titania]
"I'm sorry, but can you explain from the beginning!" [Khamishah]
"Right. First off, regarding this rite. There's different sort of trial one must undergo before taking part in the rite. Some will have to just plant million of trees as he or she stray too far off from the lifestyle of the Avery, while other, like in Farhah case, need to assimilate with The Tree of Life so that they could enhance their Avery senses, those are for Avery that's beyond straying. It all depends on each individual, and as such, no one trial is the same" [Titania]
I see. Farhah, she did realize that she's an Avery, but she had been avoiding about this Avery stuff almost for her entire life, only taking it seriously in the few years from her training with, so that's why, she need to assimilate into the Tree of Life. Her entering the Raflesia at the top of Tree of Life completed her trial, which bring us to
"The trial might be different, but the rite afterward will remain the same. As an Avery, they will meet with God of Earth and start their rite. The rite involve the Avery receiving part of the Mother Earth's power, that's, to control the very earth itself. As such, they could theoretically, move an entire country all by themselves just like the power of the first King of dwarf, the Traveler King. The forest will be their main domain as the Avery could control each branches from every single trees like they're part of their limbs. She could use the power to see faraway land. That's what an Avery could theoretically do" [Titania]
"So powerful!" [Rean]
"Indeed, and that's why, Avery is feared for it power. They're after all, on par with Mermaid Queen, Traveler King, Seraph, Iblis and the other" [Titania]
"So, what you wanted to say when Farhah will fill in the role of Mother Earth next is...?" [Kara]
"Thing is, the rite shouldn't be this painful. Sure, the amount of mana that will enter the Avery's body will be astronomical, but this, this goes beyond your usual Avery rite, which is why I believe..." [Titania]
"She will become the next mother earth. I'm guessing this is just God of Earth backup plan should you all fail to bring down God of Life this time around" [Ant Aries]
I see, but
"It hurts... Make it stop..." [Farhah]
"Farhah... Hang in there..." [Charlotte]
"Damn it... It isn't hard maintaining this ice magic to cool her off, but seeing her grunting like this..." [Savel]
"It's painful" [Singa]
It is, and she's in more dire pain than us...
"Brother... Ash..." [Farhah]
"Yes. He's here, he's here so..." [Karon]
Karon said that just to make Farhah heart at ease. I don't know whether she heard it or not, but fact remain, Brother Ash isn't here with us, so...
""THIS IS!!"" [Lara, Nara]
"?" [All]
Lara and Nara suddenly shouted, and their eyes widen, like they couldn't believe what's happening. Thing is
"Why are the two of you shouting so loudly?" [Anjin]
"Brother Ash..." [Lara]
"It's only for a very brief moment of time... But, he's definitely there..." [Nara]
"Huh?" [Mara]
"I'm sorry, but what?" [Kara]
"More specifically, his soul technique..." [Lara]
"You could see the effect though, take a look at Farhah now" [Nara]
"!" [All]
"Pain subsiding... Thank you... Brother Ash..." [Farhah]
"Farhah! Farhah!" [Karon]
"Don't worry Karon! He's just sleeping, no, she's simply passing out" [Zerolith]
"Maybe because Brother Ash uses soul relief technique, that's why..." [Lara]
"But how?" [Kucin]
"Don't know. No idea how as well" [Nara]
"Think you can replicate it, Lara, Nara?" [Elise]
""We could try"" [Lara, Nara]
And thus, instead of using healing technique, they switches out and use their God of Death power for a bit, and thus, we continue our treatment. Time passes by really quickly but there's no sight to it end
"This is..." [Titania]
Fairy Queen, Titania suddenly make a displeased grunt of anger
