Chapter 519

Maggie also recognized that winged elf:

"Fenni, I'm here to visit Queen Ophelia of Light, bearing an invitation from the Holy Flame Elf Empire!"

"Holy Flame Elf Empire?"

Fenni, hearing Maggie's voice, showed a look of surprise:

"Just a while ago I heard they were saying you started clearing the Dark Forest months ago—I've been wanting to go see it, but I've been planting flowers these past few months, so I didn't come. How's it going? Did your clearing go smoothly? And what's this Holy Flame Elf Empire about?"

As she spoke, she remembered something and added: "Oh right, I should notify Light City first, so you won't face inspections on your way."

After saying this, the winged elf Fenni pulled out a magical item and sent a signal.

Maggie said: "We've finished clearing it. Now a million elves have gathered in Holy Flame Forest. In two weeks, we will formally establish the Holy Flame Elf Empire. Fenni, we hope you'll come to the ceremony."

Fenni was stunned by Maggie's words.

"What? Finished clearing? Maggie, you only started clearing a few months ago! So you just cleared a small forest? Wait, no—you just said a million elves?"

Fenni's eyes widened hugely.

Maggie didn't elaborate further; she handed Fenni a special leaf and said: "Fenni, remember to come to Light City for the celebration in two weeks. We're still on the move, so we can't stay longer."

With that, Maggie bid farewell to Fenni and continued her journey with the eight winged elves.

Fenni held the leaf Maggie had given her, her mind filled with questions!

As fellow winged elves, Fenni and Maggie had known each other for a long time; she naturally knew what kind of person Maggie was.

Maggie never lied.

But what Maggie had just told her was simply astonishing.

Finished clearing in a few months?

Not just a small forest.

And how could there be a million elves?

And what was this Holy Flame Elf Empire?

Fenni's mind was utterly packed with question marks.

"Oh, I should go see for myself."

Fenni thought.

She flapped her wings and flew into the sky, heading west.

This time, Fenni flew swiftly; soon, she passed the boundary of Loki Forest.

Then she saw vast stretches of forest with not a trace of dark matter!

Fenni's eyes slowly widened!

Indeed, for a petite winged elf like her, the way she widened her eyes was rather adorable!

At the center of Loki Forest stood an exceptionally massive Life Tree.

This Life Tree had a diameter exceeding fifty meters.

It was a colossal tree requiring nearly two hundred people to encircle.

The canopy of the entire tree was even larger, with a diameter exceeding two kilometers.

The height of this Life Tree was nearly nine hundred meters.

Beneath the canopy, a vast area had no trees—only lush, green grass.

Among the grass grew countless flowers.

This was Loki Forest's Flower Meadow.

Whenever major events occurred, the Queen of Loki Forest—the Queen of Light, Ophelia—would make announcements here.

At the far end of the Flower Meadow lay a canyon, where the Great River surged westward; beside the canyon stood a magnificent palace.

At this moment, outside the palace garden, a stunningly beautiful woman wearing the Heavenly Golden Crown sat in an elegant posture.

Around her, several other beautiful elves were enthusiastically discussing something.

"Queen, the winged elf Fenni has sent word that Maggie, chieftain of the Eastern Winged Elf Tribe, is coming to visit you with an invitation."

At that moment, an elf came to report.

The woman wearing the Golden Crown was none other than the Queen of Loki Forest, Queen of Light Ophelia.

"An invitation?"

Ophelia tilted her head slightly, revealing a delicate profile; perhaps due to her being a Light Elf, she seemed to always emit a faint Bai Guang.

"Yes, Fenni didn't specify details—she probably doesn't know more."

The elf said.

Ophelia's voice carried a calm aura: "Let them pass without obstruction."

"Yes, Queen!"

The elf departed.

"An invitation from the Eastern Tribe? Queen, didn't the Life Tree receive word from the Night Elves a while ago, inviting all elf tribes to clear the Dark Forest?"

After the elf left, an elf with flowers embroidered on her dress asked curiously.

"That was probably months ago. After breaking the curse, the Night Elves became so bold—if they moved quickly, they should be nearly done clearing the Dark Forest by now. But the western Dark Forest has become far more dangerous; I hope they don't go too deep."

Another elf added.

"Wasn't the Loki Mountains just collapsed? That gap behind it was sealed by ice—probably the work of some tribe's deity. But the temperature there is too low for habitation; they probably only aim to carve out a small habitable forest."

An elf with flowers stuck in her hair said.

These elves were all young, but their strength was not weak—they were Ophelia's students, so they felt quite at ease around her.

"I wonder why they sent the invitation. Could they be inviting us to join the clearing? Too bad we've run out of Heavenly Flame Stones—but if they have extra Heavenly Flame Stones, Queen, we could send some people to participate."

Ophelia's students began discussing among themselves.

Ophelia sat on a chair woven from flowers, silently listening to their chatter.

Time stretched long.

Soon, noon arrived.

Elves had no habit of three meals a day; one meal could sustain them for a long time.

Ophelia began teaching these elf students, recounting knowledge of history and geography.

After teaching for over an hour, someone came to report that the winged elf Maki had arrived outside the City of Light and sought an audience.

Life in Loki Forest was utterly peaceful; visitors rarely came, so Maki's visit stirred many elves, and the Flower Square beneath the Life Tree was already crowded with elves.

These elves were mostly light elves, with some sun elves and wind elves as well.

Ophelia also came to the Flower Square, where elves received guests.

Soon, they saw Maki flying in from the sky, guarded by eight winged elves.
