Ivita furrowed her eyebrows, the situation was even more dangerous than what the old witch had predicted.
She was not a Demon God.
She was just borrowing the power from six Divine Kings.
Yet for some reason, once her six types of magic power lost their balance, the Tree of Life Spirit Energy would continuously release leaked divine power.
The previous time she transformed into a dragon, there was already a risk of eternal slumber.
It seemed that in the future she needed to pay attention to the balance of magic power, she could no longer let it lose balance casually.
Ivita suddenly recalled what the old witch always mentioned, ‘all magic comes with a price and its corresponding risk.
This was a kind of law in itself, which every wizard needed to adhere to.
These laws ran deep in every corner of the Black Forest, but she didn’t know where the origin of these laws came from.
Could they have come from the Dark Queen and the Magic Domain?
Ivita snapped back to reality, saying: “Hmm, I understand now.”
“Now the Hearthstone Witch wants to leave here, while I want to get involved in this operation.”
“Since we are now a team, every person should make their own decision. Therefore, to be fair, we should all vote by raising hands.”
“The minority must obey the majority.”
“Let us begin.”
Ivita stepped back and raised her hand. “I think we can participate in this operation. Don’t forget, our aim is to acquire territory.”
“The foundation to oppose Alsace.”
“Look…”
She pointed to the ogre she had controlled at the edge of the dark river. “This fellow is my first spoil of war from this operation.”
“I believe in the prophecy of the old Druid.”
“Those who support my decision can raise their hands.”
Brandon also raised his hand. “My father has already died. I genuinely do not have the ability to serve as the lord of Baron Moro’s territory.”

“If you are aiming to acquire territory from this trip, I am willing to present the Barony to you.”
“This is my reward to you, and also because I am now helpless to bear the responsibilities of the Baron.”
“This is possible according to law, because if the treants really have replaced all important individuals in the castle, then all of the Moro Family members are now dead.”
“I am the only successor. I will swear before the God of All Things of my purity, serve The Church for my whole life as a single man, I will become a knight of The Church, and automatically lose the right to inherit the territory.”
Brandon said: “The territory of Baron Moro is a stronghold that guards the only road entering the Ambros Basin from the west. So there has been a tradition since ancient times, that if an insufficient lord manages here, he should recommend a more powerful lord to the Ambrose Grand Viscount.”
The crowd looked at him in astonishment.
Nobody expected Brandon to make such a decision.
But after careful thought, the Moro Family, which has almost been entirely slaughtered by the Sons of the Forest, was certain to lose this territory.
It would be better to give it to Ivita in exchange for her protection.
Seeing this, Rayli immediately raised his hand to show his support. “Even though this trip is dangerous, if it’s not dangerous, how could we obtain a territory.”
“I support my master.”
Now only the old witch and Black Wolf were left.
The old witch looked at Black Wolf who had not raised his hand, and showed a smile. “I knew you wouldn’t raise your hand, we are both very cautious.”
Black Wolf looked down and then suddenly lifted his head and raised his hand.
He looked at the old witch, “Don’t misunderstand, this is not against you. But I just gave it some serious thought and I believe it’s too late for us to run.”
“We must have already been targeted. Experience tells me that escaping at this time would be inviting disaster.”
The old witch grumbled: “That’s because you don’t know how to escape. Whenever I’m in trouble, I scamper off.”
“There won’t be any consequences at all, let others clean up the mess. Why should I bother?”
Seeing that everyone was siding with Ivita, she could only raise her hand in agreement, “Then I also support the crown’s decision.”
“But have you decided how to proceed, Your Highness? It’s ironic that the current Son of the Forest can summon the human army against us at any time.”
Ivita said to her, “First, let’s divide the ogre’s treasure chests.”
“I need a little time to think about the plan.”
There remain two treasure chests from the ogre, a stack of unidentifiable currency, and a pile of rusty swords.
Only two of the swords were faintly glowing.
Black Wolf sharply picked out a great sword from the pile of rusted iron. It had a heavy weight ball as the hilt, meticulously crafted sword guard, and three carvings of decapitated alien life heads on the blade.
The first carving depicted a human cutting off a Tauren’s head with this sword.
The second carving showed the decapitation of a creature somewhat resembling a pig-man.
The third carving depicted this sword impaling the heart of a centaur, a creature with a human’s upper body and a horse’s lower half.
Black Wolf overjoyed, “It’s actually the Executioner. This famous sword once belonged to Henry, the traveling Great Knight of Sarson Duchy. He reportedly killed many alien races with this sword.”
“This sword was forged with special materials. Wounds inflicted by it would heal slower.”
“This is a very famous weapon.”
“Your Highness, this is the reward I want.”
Ivita nodded. This sword was indeed most suitable for him, and it could greatly increase Black Wolf’s combat power.
Ivita asked him, “What about the other sword left, do you recognize it?”
Black Wolf picked up the other sword, it was plain and unadorned. It had a round counterweight head, a square sword guard, a high-quality wooden hilt, and the body of the sword was relatively slender. It looked more like a ceremonial sword for personal wear.
Black Wolf nodded, “It is also a famous sword. If it wasn’t, it would have rusted a long time ago in the water.”
“This is the Broken Steel Sword.”
“Look at the inscription near the hilt of the blade – ‘The Sword that Cuts Everything, infused with a special meteorite’.”
“But I don’t know its origin.”
The old witch spoke, “Legend has it that the Broken Steel Sword of the landless Ambrose Grand Viscount Elan, who died in the battle of the Bohr River, disappeared without a trace, and it’s been over two hundred years since.”
“So it ended up in the hands of the ogres.”
“While it’s ridiculous to claim that this sword can cut everything, it certainly can cut through many swords. Because it was forged with meteorite from outside world, and this sword was forged by a witch.”
“So it contains the magic power to cut through all other swords.”
The old witch said, “In short, although this is a knight’s weapon, it can also be considered a magical item.”
Ivita laughed, “Then this sword is quite useful.”
“Branton, when I don’t need it anymore, I will bestow it to you.”
Branston was flattered. “Your Highness….”
Ivita said to everyone, “I have come up with a way to deal with the treants.”
“Branton, I want you to negotiate with the current Baron Moro. Tell him that you are ready to succeed him, and you want the barony.”
“We have to kill Baron Moro in a room.”
“Remove the Sons of the Forest’s control over the barony, and during this process, we also need to win over the human army of the barony.”
“Killing the Baron and gaining control over the human army is the only way we can defeat the Treants.”
Ivita told everyone, “But we should always prepare for the worst. I memorized an escape route this afternoon, Rayli, you need to prepare several quality warhorses on the route we designated for escape.”
“I am not stingy with money anymore, all our money can be freely used for our plan to reclaim the human barony!”
Faces looking at one another.
Honestly, Black Wolf didn’t expect a naive prince to plan as far as this.
Ivita said to everyone, “Actually, this is also my first time doing something like this, so if things go wrong, we’ll just have to adapt.”
“Rayli, you are our only way out, you must be ready to escape.”
