MONOCHROME: Choice Of Destiny

Chapter 44 Arriving In The Great Forest

We flew at high speed across a sea of trees that looked limitless.

This was a place that neither humans nor demons had touched because it was filled with extremely powerful monsters.

Even the rumors are that only the chosen ones are able to enter the center of the forest and if not, they will be lost in this forest forever.

This was indeed very far away and it might take several days or weeks to pass through it and it was calculated if one were to walk on foot without getting any disturbance from the monsters.

In the outer part of the forest was indeed very quiet but the deeper the more monsters we passed.

The most terrible is not from the monster but from the density of mana is very dense to make it difficult for you to breathe let alone fight with monsters.

We flew for a few hours and finally wivern Ryu landed on the ground.

"Starting from this only the person who gets the permission can enter it so wait a while I will go in and ask for his permission."

"Hmm it's true I feel like I can't step here, it's a very strange magic."

"It's not magic but the laws of nature itself so it can't be destroyed by anything."

"Heeh I'm quite interested in learning it."

Zep was right ever since I stepped foot I couldn't move at all.

It's not that I can't move just that I feel like I can't go any further even when I force my legs to not move forward.

"All right, we'll wait."

With that Carl goes further into the forest along with Ryu's wyvern while me and Zep can only wait there.

Deep in the forest Carolyn entered a gate made of giant trees and when entering there was already a very beautiful view.

More than that this place is filled with monsters that can only be found in this place because if one of them appears one village or city will disappear from the map.

Everything lowered its head as Carolyn passed by, Carolyn continued to walk straight with a straight face without noticing the monsters that were bowing around her.

Until he arrived at the edge of the lake and as he stepped into it something like a tentacle appeared and held Carolyn's feet from touching the water.

It continued until Carolyn reached the middle of the lake.

The air seemed distorted later as Carolyn touched her body slowly the ground was swallowed up and disappeared.

Carolyn appeared in a room that looked like a luxurious room equipped with several servants.

Without saying what the servants quickly took off Carolyn's clothes and instantly used magic to clean her body then helped her put on a magnificent Dress equipped with a crown.

They also gave a small robe to Shin who was standing on the table.

When the servants were done, they lowered their heads and went out without a word.

Shin went back up to Carolyn's boat and they went to a door, when the entrance that first appeared was a very magnificent hall with one seat at its top.

Carolyn came forward and without a doubt she sat on that chair with Shin still lying on her shoulder.

In front of him was full of human figures with some monster traits.

There were hundreds of them and all of them were not just powerful figures but figures that surpassed anyone's common sense.

And all those figures bowed before one girl.

The girl had no formidable strength but if in terms of dominance no one could surpass her, it was, the gentle and loving aura that was her hallmark did not appear now and truly turned into a majestic figure of the queen.

The room was very quiet as everything was waiting for the queen to speak.

"First I'd like to hear your report on the current situation."

Hearing that there were about 35 advanced figures who looked different from everything not from appearance but in terms of strength.

One of the female figures with 9 fox tails spoke first.

"Your noble report, we have now formed an alliance with the 35 and 36 great forests that exist in the Empire but we cannot disturb the latter because the territory is guarded directly by the dragon lord."

Hearing that Carolyn seemed to think for a moment before answering.

"It's been that much, it's pretty good and for the last one I'll go there personally to talk to the dragon lord to help with our plan, is this power enough in the face of the coming war? what say?"

"I'm quite difficult in answering it due to the lack of information, we do know everything that happens in the Demon Empire but not with the human Empire."

"That's good enough, what about my friend?"

"So far we have not found another suitable figure other than the previous 2 people, please forgive us."

"All that is enough, next."

The figure of a woman with cat ears and 2 tails waved behind her forward.

"I've hypnotized quite a number of higher-ups in the empire and even managed to peek at the head contents of some demon lord and I found out a very interesting piece of info, though, I think we should consider whether we want to tell Lucifer about this or not."

"No need, he had to figure it out himself so stay in the plan."

"Understand."

Monsters have information systems such as profit nets that allow them to communicate over an unlimited distance as long as they have a blood or soul relationship.

So they do not need to talk to convey information but they still do so so that the room does not feel quiet.

However, important information will be submitted personally to the queen because it does not rule out the possibility of anyone leaking that information if one of them is caught.

The monsters advanced one by one and began to deliver their reports to completion.

When all the reports had been delivered Carolyn began to speak.

"You guys already know this but I'm going to the human Empire now so I'm going to pass on some orders that I will hand over the supreme power to Belvina for a while, anyone mind?"

All were silent signifying their agreement.

"Next I want you to expand our information network to cover the entire human Empire as well if it is possible for you to do so with your heart so as not to attract that excessive attention alone, he said, you guys please go and do your own thing."

after they were done they all disappeared like they had never been there leaving Carolyn, Shin and the other 5 figures.

"Aahh~ I'm so tired, why do I have to do this every day."

"Good work Your Majesty."

"Vina please don't make fun of me."

The woman with the fox's ears approached Carolyn.

"Fufu you've been trying so hard that I've been goosebumps myself to see it."

"Sister Fenix I don't know what a compliment is or what."

"I agree, you really are a great queen now."

"Thank you Fenrir."

"It's hard, but I hope you survive."

"I'll try uncle Leo."

"Son didn't scare me just now."

"I'm sorry for scaring you Mia."

Everything started to go forward and Carolyn's praise started from the lady with fox ears, the woman with red hair and the burning dress, the man with black yellow hair, the woman with black hair, om om is burly with bushy hair and lastly girls with straight green hair.

"Ohhh yes big brother is out if I can just let him in is that okay?"

Everyone smiled hearing Carolyn ask that.

"Even if we refuse they will be able to enter as long as you want so there is no need to ask for permission."

"That's true but that doesn't mean I have to be arbitrary here."

"Well we'll let them in, meet them and introduce them to us."

"Well I'll pick them up first."

Carolyn went into the portal and the others followed.

After everyone left the room began to crack and shatter into pieces leaving a void of darkness.

Outside the forest I and Zephyr sat down to eat because Carl was longer than I imagined, it seemed like it took a lot of effort to persuade the forest to let us in.

But thankfully there were no monsters attacking us so we were quite calm here but that also made it very boring.

While busy chewing Lina's bread, I felt my body become lighter and more free to move.

I stood up and started walking a few steps and it worked.

A little while later Carl appears alone with Shin on his boat.

"Sorry to keep you waiting so long."

"No problem, it seems like it takes time to coax the forest so I understand."

"Errm yes this also takes more time than I thought, well let's go inside."

Carl walked and we followed behind him, we walked for a few minutes and then found a very thick tree that formed a giant wall.

As we were about to hit the tree, the tree immediately moved to the side forming a natural gate.

Since entering this forest there are so many unreasonable things that I met ranging from monsters that have high intelligence to now a tree that moves like life.

Which makes me wonder because everything happened without any magic interference so I just asked how all this could happen.

We passed through the tree gate and I stopped because I couldn't say a word.

I can't believe there's a place like this in the middle of the forest because it's like heaven if I could tell.

That's all I can say to describe her beauty.

If before I felt heavy and hard to breathe now everything is upside down because here it is very calm, too calm instead.

There were many monsters but no rampaging magic.

It feels like my body has become very light and my magic flow has become smoother just by breathing here.

This is the best training ground I can say.

"Hows it? I thought you'd be surprised by its beauty."

I wasn't surprised because of its beauty but still I'm very surprised right now.

"It's beyond my expectations."

"Hehe good, how about we meet the guard of this place? they said they wanted to see you guys."

"All right, show me the way."

We walked to a large tree under which there was a hole.

We went in and there was a staircase leading up, it turned out to be a house made of living trees.

We entered a room that looked like a room to pick up guests.

There are already 5 figures, namely 2 men, 2 women and 1 child.

There are also 3 empty seats provided as they already know about it.

Well they are the overseers of this forest so it is not strange if they know the number of people entering this forest.

Carl comes forward and sits down first on one of the chairs, me and Zep follow him and sit down.

One of them opened his mouth to speak.

"Welcome to Auf Erden, successor to the Princess of Disaster and her subordinate Spear of hell."
