Phoenix Brides

Episode 41

Bara and Kyra have been

back to where Kyra met the Treants. As Bara had guessed, they

will bring themselves up when she and Kyra come looking for them. Those trees

surrounding Kyra and Bara is like making a birdcage with a slight gap

which their bodies cannot pass.

One of the Treant

looking bigger and older, looking down at Kyra's eyes. He is the one who

earlier gave the fire girl a warning. His gaze was so strong,

as if able to pierce through the mind and read the intentions in Kyra's heart. However, there is no

the discomfort Kyra felt. This creature deserves to be considered special.

Because of the purity of soul power and aura they can remove the sense of nobility

quieter.

“I've seen what

what you want to show me. And after that, I still believe in

friend, Bara. They were indeed Snow Elves. However, just like humans, Elves

Snow is also good and evil.”

Kyra insists on

they are, if Bara is really not the same as Anata and Bastian. She wanted

the Treants do not judge from race, but rather look at one's heart objectively.

“So you want to say

if your friends have nothing to do with them?” When

asking Kyra, Treant's gaze was on Bara. There was no intention

evil or hatred in his eyes. Only suspicion and alertness

Bara feel. Therefore, Bara felt the need to assert himself. Unnecessary

keep secrets or be careful with them. The Treant Nation which

victim of his family's quarrel.

“I won't say

don't know them. They are my cousins, rebels of my people.” Embers

acknowledging his relationship with Anata and Bastian. Because he wants the Treant Nation

entrust the affairs of his two cousins to him.

Bamm!

The ground shook only

because of one blow from the Treant. The roots of a large, sturdy tree can

holding its weight, it could simultaneously destroy its footing as it decided to

movin' in. Kyra and Bara lose their balance. They were shaken, almost

fall if only the two do not immediately stretch each other to repair

equilibria.

“Please, listen

explanation first! They're his cousins, but that doesn't mean Bara will

defend or help them!” Kyra yelled, trying to convince the tree

the giant wants to give Bara a chance to explain. Bara is not

said a lot, but Kyra could already guess what the Elves wanted.

“So you asked us

close your eyes and let you guys just walk away?”

There is a strong pressure inside

the heavy sound that was issued by the Treant. Kyra until depressed

mentally. His voice didn't come out, stuck in the throat. He just kept quiet, staring

interject without blinking. Bara who was beside him, squeezed out an arm

Kyra while pulling the fire girl back behind her.

“What I want is

permission to clean them up yourself. I swear, punish or kill them,

I'll do it with my own hands. I'm not gonna ask you guys for help.

All I'm asking for is the information you know.”

The Elf was so authoritative

and assertive. That firmness and firm spirit of his heart, solidified doubt

treant Nation. The trees whispered with typical leaf movements, looking like

heart-warming autumn foliage dance. They are discussing, though,

looking for a unanimous decision to believe or not in Bara.

Some trees from

it was silent, staring at Kyra and Bara full of intimidation as if testing them.

When it was felt that the two young people were worthy of trust, they relaxed

vigilance.

“Good. We agree, but

as a condition ... You will not let us get out of this forest

as long as they're still here. Take them away with you or

destroy them all,” said the Treant.

Bara nodded once.

“I understand,” answered.

The giant tree is

his friends, back in, buried their roots into the ground. A glance look,

they looked like ordinary giant trees. However, when they intentionally

letting out her strength and showing her face, Kyra will know if they

be different.

“Thank you for that

willing to give Bara a chance.” Kyra smiled sincerely. There's no fear

nor was he angry after receiving unfriendly treatment from the Treants. He is grateful, though,

if there is a peaceful way out like this.

Kyra's tenderness

evokes the Treant's conscience. He just wanted to go after

giving Bara information, decides to give Kyra a blessing.

The tip of the leaf from the Treant's small stem approached Kyra's forehead, touching

it quietly left a faint mark on the surface of the fire girl. Kyras

stupefied, feeling the flow of cold power entering into his body. His sight

become more clear and sensitive to other forces that are nearby

become stronger.

“What is this? What the hell happened

“It was the nation's blessing

Treant, Kyra,” Bara replied, telling Kyra. Blessing of the nation

Treants are not easily given their blessings. Only the ones they admit and

appreciated who gets it.

Kyra was surprised. It

happy, but also confused. Who made a deal with them,

but why is he who does nothing, precisely given something that

special like this.

“What's okay is given

me?”

“I give it to you, then

you deserve to have it. With that, finding the blue fire bird would be more

easy.”

“You know what

i'm looking?”

The Treant only commented

mysterious smile. They know everything that happens in this world. Roots

they extend into the ground, connected to their brethren

on another plain. If they want to know about someone, they will

it's easy to find out.

“Solve your affairs

with that Elf and the Undead. Then search and destroy all the altars they have

waking up. By following this pattern, you will find a meeting point with what

the one you're looking for.” Rather than giving Kyra a definite answer, they were more

it's nice to test Kyra's thinking like a parent who wants to see her child

grow slowly accumulating life experiences.

“Now, back to

initial purpose. Listen carefully, Bara.” After that, the Treant immediately

diverting conversations. Kyra was a little dissatisfied, but she couldn't force it

desirability. It's good they want to be helped, they shouldn't be so ignorant

you want to ask too much.

“Sure. Tell everyone

all you know,” reply Bara.

Long story short, Anata and

Bastian led a number of Undead to invade the territory of other nations

not without reason. They were building altars in a certain position with

the purpose of building a special formation.

The formation that condenses

dozens of stone altars are believed to disrupt the flow of earth magic and

covering the sky with eternal darkness. Undead numbers are limited, though,

it will become limitless and dominate the world.

To stop all

that is, the various nations in the three great empires have sacrificed many things.

But still, they collapsed and the enemy continued to build

to this day. The only reason why the construction was never completed

just because the Phoenix kept destroying the altar and protecting hope

the people.

All that's already gone

for hundreds of years and more and more, the strength of the firebird was getting weaker. Rather,

the power of the Undead was growing with the number of other nations

join them. This brings anxiety not just to Nakula,

but the Treants and other weak nations.

“There are many altars

destroyed and rebuilt. Including those in our area. But the circumstances

it won't keep coming back to a starting point like this, because the longer it is, the longer it is,

fewer people are willing to fight. We can protect this place

now, but what about later?”

When the Treant Nation finally

can be defeated and their territory taken away, then the entire altar will be

complemented. That is their fear at this time. The position of the altar

it was completely controlled by the Undead's accomplices. Including one of the

built on the ruins of the Snow Elf palace.

“So you said,

my cousins who have been attacking here and there, including

destroying my own people just to build those altars?”

Bara can't hold back

his anger. It was only fitting that the protection magic in his kingdom could be extinguished exactly

when the Undead attacked. It turns out because Anata and Bastian have been

helping the undead army in silence. That's why the Snow Fairy is so

strong, it could lose its power to sleep for hundreds of years.

“If you don't believe,

go and see for yourself. The mountain that was once an iceberg

the Snow Elf Region, had now turned into the main altar that became the center

from thirty other small altars.”

Who would have thought if

it turned out that the attack on the Bara kingdom was the beginning of the development plan

altarpiece. And he who left that precious place knew nothing,

it's not really worth forgiving.

“I will not forgive

they!” bara shouted, exploding.

Now, who wants to

he did was hunt down both cousins and all the Undead in this forest.

Then return to his hometown and tear down the cursed altar

heap up his family's happy memories.
