Chapter 479
However, even if she became aware of her own thoughts, she still found the Flame Lord's soul profoundly alluring.
As a goddess of the elf lineage, she had been a goddess for an extremely long time, yet she had never been this close to any other deity, especially a male deity.
Long ago, she had spoken with other deities, but with them, she felt absolutely nothing like this.
Only the Flame Lord.
The Flame Lord's soul seemed warm.
Within his soul, there radiated a captivating aura.
It was this captivating aura that made the Elf Goddess lose her composure!
It also left the Elf Goddess restless and distracted, even easing her unease.
So much so that when the Flame Lord replied, she nearly didn't hear him.
The Flame Lord's reply consisted of only one word:
Good!
Was that a yes?
The Elf Goddess's heart leapt with joy; she was just about to thank him when the Flame Lord vanished.
The Flame Lord's aloofness once again gave the Elf Goddess a clear understanding.
"Hmm, I must be more generous."
Though the Flame Lord had left, the Elf Goddess still had one task to complete.
That was to bestow a blessing upon the Tree of Life.
Filled with joy, she decided to be generous and grant a greater blessing.
From the sky, a beam of light imbued with the Elf Goddess's aura descended.
Under this light, the Tree of Life continued to grow, quickly rising from two hundred meters to two hundred and fifty meters!
The Elf Goddess was truly generous this time!
Though she immediately felt a pang of regret.
Because she had expended a great deal of divine power!
"It was worth it!"
She cheered herself on.
Below, the Green Elves who witnessed the Elf Goddess's generosity began singing her praises in greater numbers.
This gave the Elf Goddess considerable psychological comfort!
After bestowing the blessing, the Elf Goddess's consciousness departed from here and returned to the Heavenly Realm.
After she left, another goddess began to bestow a blessing.
This goddess's blessing caused the Tree of Life to grow another twenty-some meters!
Clearly, after both the Flame Lord and the Elf Goddess had been so generous, this goddess had also become more generous.
Otherwise, by normal convention, her blessing would have allowed the Tree of Life to grow at most seven or eight meters.
Thus, the Tree of Life in the Sacred Flame Forest, though blessed by only four deities including the Life Goddess, had grown directly to over two hundred and eighty meters tall!
It was over one hundred meters taller than the Tree of Life in Loki Forest had ever been!
"What a wonderful day."
In her divine realm, the Elf Goddess sat upon a chair woven from flowers, her mood excellent.
Having finally reached an agreement with the Flame Lord, the Elf Goddess's smile grew more frequent.
Then she recalled her encounter with the Flame Lord's manifested consciousness.
Yet what impressed her most was no longer the Flame Lord's power.
It was the aura emanating from his soul.
"What a captivating aura!"
The Elf Goddess couldn't help thinking.
Her exchange with the Flame Lord had been brief.
She had spoken only two sentences.
And the Flame Lord had been even more terse, uttering only two words.
Yet the Elf Goddess felt herself deeply drawn to him.
For the entire day, her mind was filled with the Flame Lord; she wondered what kind of person he was, what stories and deeds he had, and why his soul was so irresistibly alluring to her.
