Elf Kingdom: Game of the World Tree

At the southernmost tip of Dragon Island, on the cliffs by the coast.

Hundreds of dragons, both big and small, gathered here, gazing at the dozen or so tiny figures on the cliffs.

These were the ten players visiting Dragon Island, alongside them the ten young dragons who came with them, Gold Dragon Romannus transformed into human form, and several other dragons wishing to travel with the players to Segis Continent.

Among the dragons bidding farewell, Red Dragon King Hertos stood at the forefront, his massive head gazing at the players, particularly those with good card skills, revealing a look of reluctance and longing:

"Dear Elf friends, are you really leaving?"

"Our mission is complete, we must leave, but if there’s an opportunity, we’ll surely return."

The players laughed.

Seeing them having packed up their belongings, Hertos sighed.

Though the elfs only stayed on Dragon Island for half a month, they brought about significant changes.

Fun games, delicious roasted meat...

The usually bored dragons, only sleeping or counting Gold Coins or fighting in groups, suddenly discovered that life could be so colorful.

As the longest-living species in Segis World, dragons possess long lifespans but also lose much over time.

Few things can stir their calm hearts and make them truly joyful.

During the players’ stay of half a month, laughter and joy echoed throughout Dragon Island.

"Friends, thank you for the happiness you’ve brought to Dragon Island. Here’s my gift, I hope you’ll accept it."

Hertos took ten glimmering red dragon scales from the storage space, placing them before the players.

These were his dragon scales.

Seeing the fiery dazzling scales, the players’ eyes lit up.

Though a dragon who fears his wife, as an old Dragon God, Red Dragon King Hertos’s scales are rare treasures.

Following the Red Dragon King’s actions, the dragons there to send off the players also stepped forward, leaving gifts before them.

Dragon scales, rare Magical Beast Crystal Cores, mutated magical plants...

Aside from Gold and gemstones, all kinds of precious gifts piled up before the players like a small hill.

Seeing the dragons so enthusiastic, the players were moved.

"Accept these gifts, friends from the Elf Forest, the gates of Dragon Island... will always be open to you."

said the Red Dragon King.

The players nodded, carefully collecting their gifts, then climbed onto the backs of the young dragons.

"Dear dragon friends, take care!"

Li Mu turned, reached out, performing an Elf Clan salute to the dragons.

"Take care!"

The other players mimicked him, solemn.

Even the usually carefree Demacia unusually steadied, eyes now gentle.

"Take care..."

The dragons slightly bowed, performing the Dragon Clan’s highest gesture of respect.

"We’re off! Goodbye everyone!"

The players waved, turning around.

The young dragons beneath them let out a long cry, spread their wings and soared, taking them away from Dragon Island...

Romannus and other dragons also reverted to their original forms, following.

More than ten dragons flew towards the southeast under the dazzling sun...

Watching the players grow distant, Red Dragon King Hertos lifted his head.

He raised his slender dragon neck, letting out a loud dragon roar.

Following him, more and more dragons joined, lifting their heads and roaring loudly...

The continuous dragon roars echoed in the sky, until the players’ figures were no longer visible.

As the elfs departed, the dragons on the cliff also dispersed.

Red Dragon King Hertos returned to Dragon Valley with reluctance, but upon entering the valley, his expression instantly turned expectant.

There was a flash in his claw, and a set of splendid, eye-catching cards appeared.

Gazing at the cards, prettier and more radiant than those held by other dragons, Hertos grinned foolishly:

"Hehehe... Is this the limited edition cards? They’re beautiful! That Demacia fellow, truly remarkable..."

The cards had been secretly gifted by that guy named Demacia before the elfs left.

His other cards, including the set of Gwent cards steel from Mother Goddess, were all burned by Silver Dragon Andrea as a distraction...

Besides this set, there were two ordinary sets, which were gifts for Red Dragon Tibilia and Silver Dragon Agnes.

These two dragons unexpectedly didn’t come today to see the players off.

And yet... they had spent the most time with the players over that half month.

"These cards, can’t be seen by Andrea."

Red Dragon King carefully treasured the cards like a precious treasure.

Just as he finished, he heard his wife’s familiar voice:

"Hertos!"

Red Dragon King startled, almost dropping the cards, he hurriedly turned to see Silver Dragon Andrea frowning at him, seemingly in a bad mood.

"What are you hiding?"

"Ahem, nothing, nothing..."

Andrea:...

Mythical Silver Dragon glanced deeply at Red Dragon King, making him uneasy, yet ultimately didn’t press.
