Blood Elf Monarch

King Castian clearly couldn't hide his disappointment in the slightest after hearing the message written by the Alfather of Asgardian, Odin and the information conveyed by the gatekeeper, Heimdall.

"We're this close."

"Asgardians again! huh!."

King Vizier laughed sarcastically in response to the gatekeeper's words.

"We've come this far and have to go back to find these Aesir Legacy?! Well, At least the mist is gone. The access to the continent on the west to where the Asgardians are now open" King Vizier walked to the end of the floating plain to see from a distance the current position of the Asgardians, which could be seen from above the plain.

Tristan was interested in doing the same, examining how the planet's continents looked after the mist layer disappeared.

After observing the road to Asgardian open very clearly, King Vizier voluntarily said that he would go to Asgardian to get the Aesir legacy. He would bring it back to this place to open the Bifrost gate.

King Castian was happy to hear the suggestion from the dark elve king.

And a new team was formed to go to where the Asgardians lived and search for the Aesir legacy.

"Legacy is those Aesir who have gained the power of Asgardian ancestor," explained Callan providing additional information for the elves.

True to what he had mentioned, the Aesir Legacy possessed bodies that had already become the abode of the spirits of the Asgardian ancestors and their strength was far above that of ordinary Aesir. There was currently a dozen of them in the Asgardian lands based on the information that Callan had.

Despite being told that the legacy had tremendous power, King Castian was not at all afraid and still chose people who would continue the unfinished expedition.

"I, Osgiliath, King Vizier, Callan, and Hanz will go to the Asgardian continent and ask their Aesir to come with us to this place," explained King Castian.

"Request? Hahahaha are you sure?" King Vizier burst into laughter, and King Castian didn't pay any attention to it because it was likely that they would take these Aesir by force.

In his heart, Tristan was actually happy because his name was not included in the list of people who would go to the Asgardian continent. After all, he would rather return now to check on his troops.

He remembered one of the Aesir who fought him in the past and fighting with a dozen of them might not be easy, but the 5 people who would meet them were also the strongest, it should be an interesting battle, and Tristan was a little tempted to join.

"These Aesir probably have the abilities of a Magus, so they should have spirit souls," he thought.

While in his daydream, a female voice called out to him.

"Tristan, we are going back to the high elve palace. The others are already waiting there." Queen Leena sounded relaxed because King Ivaasar was not named by King Castian either.

The elves who were involved with sacrificing spirit souls for Tristan's power and great healing were already considered non-existent by the High elves king.

Even Kolvar, the high elve elder, felt left out.

However, Kolvar knew that what he had done was wrong, and he was willing to suffer the consequences, even though he never asked Tristan to save him.

"Yes. We will return."

Callan and King Vizier walked over to Tristan before deciding to continue their journey toward the Asgardian continent.

"You have done your part very well, blood elf, Tristan. We would not have reached this place without your strength." Callan clearly gave his biggest compliment.

"Thank you." he then turned and walked after King Castian, who had walked first towards the end of the mainland.

King Vizier patted Tristan on the shoulder once as a thank you before going after the others.

Tristan watched as the elves leapt free from the floating plains and disappeared from view due to the thick white clouds blocking his view.

After everyone left, Tristan looked at who was left.

Queen Leena did not want to be separated from her husband, King Ivaasar. Meanwhile, Kolvar and Levi stood side by side, waiting for him as if Tristan had indirectly been considered the leader of their journey to return to the land of the high elves. A place where everyone waits for them to come home.

WOOSH!

Tristan ordered Nara and Nora to transform back into their giant dragons' form and let Tristan and the others ride on top of them.

The two dragons flew at full speed against the strong gust of wind in the air.

From behind the clumps of clouds, Tristan could enjoy a far more amazing view than the view from an ordinary aeroplane on planet earth.

By flying above the dragon, he could interact directly with the wind and even other flying beasts.

The journey back from the floating plains to the high elve elder's palace took quite a long time. It was long enough for the elves to regain the strength and energy that had been drained from the previous battle.

They were very impatient to bring good news to convey to all the elves, about the hope of returning to their world. Though they still needed to wait for the gate that had been found to finally open.

Just counting the time, everything would happen soon.

Tristan could see how they were all smiling as if great happiness had just arrived.

WOOSH!

The two dragons flapped their gigantic wings to accelerate their flight speed.

From a distance, the shadows of the high elves' palace began to be seen, which looked the same as before they left.

However, getting closer to the land, the smile on Tristan's face faded as he saw, his aeroplane, the firefly, parked near the residence of the high elves.

What brought the plane here?

Meanwhile, the arrival of two giant dragons made the high elves gather in one area, shocked and panicked when they saw it.

But when they saw Kolvar on top of one of the dragons waving his hand, the atmosphere immediately became calm.

The two dragons landed on the open ground, and the elves slid down from above.

A high elf ran through the ground and approached Kolvar breathlessly.

"Elder Kolvar, I saw the mist disappear. Did teh expedition succeed? Does that mean we've managed to get the gate to go home?" The male elf looked very eager to attack the elder with several questions at once without waiting for his breathing to return to normal.

Kolvar smiled a triumphant smile.

"We managed to find the gate. The mist has been cleared, and the road to return is drawing near."

The elf's eyes immediately rounded and sparkled with hope.

"Where is the king? Why don't you go with him?"

Kolvar already knew it was going to happen. And he was also relieved that King Castian didn't take him to the Asgardian continent, he knew that the high elves might ask where the king was. If they let only Tristan and the wood elves go home things could become complicated.

"King Castian still has to do something to open that gate and connect this world with our real world."

Hearing Kolvar's answer, the high elves let out a sigh of relief. Information about the safety of the king meant a great deal to those who loved their king very much.

When there were no more questions about high elves, Tristan finally spoke up, "What exactly happened? Why is that plane here?"

The high elves crowding the place just whispered to each other and looked at Tristan with strange looks. Neither of them wanted to answer Tristan's questions, neither of them cared about him as they didn't know him.

Suddenly, out of the crowd, Tristan could smell the body of a very familiar person walking closer and closer. With his enhanced senses, Tristan could sense the person's whereabouts and where she was coming from.

Princess Illiana tried to quicken her footsteps, running towards Tristan.

The dark elve princess jumped into Tristan's arms without hesitation with a worried face,

"What happened?" Tristan asked Illiana this time.

Queen Leena and Levi, who wanted to know the answer, rushed over to the princess.

"Tristan, I'm so glad you're finally back safely." Illiana looked at Tristan with an indescribable look.

"Where are King Haladar and the others, Illiana?" Queen Leena was impatient.

"Inside the palace, they are all fine. The wounds have been healed, the high elves are really–"

Illiana was surprised when she saw King Ivaasar for the first time, but she was even more surprised when she saw Levi in ​​front of her alive and only having minor scratches. She couldn't continue her sentence.

"How could this...?" she still couldn't believe it.

However, Tristan had again asked her a question,

"Illiana, tell me, what did I miss while I was away?"

The dark elve princess looked at Tristan's eyes with pity, her face turned worried again,

"Tristan, we have lost the Arcadian. The space knights came and took over the palace."

"They, what?"
