I Love Destroying Worlds' Plot

Chapter 1988: 24.249 Sixth Violet Star - An Old Promise

Hearing the name Vera had brought a lot of old memories for the former elf king, Lord Vega. During the times when he was still the king of elves, Vera, this closest friend of his, was his greatest support. He is the son of the great elder and possessed the strongest affinity with elements after him. It can be said that if Vega had decided to abdicate his throne at that time, Vera would fit the most to take over his role. That’s why Vega couldn’t understand why the useless Valerian had taken the throne after he left. Now it seems that Vera had chosen not to take over.

Lord Vega thought that maybe after helping him and Heri, Vera was punished but only for a while. Who would have that the great elder was killed and that Vera was imprisoned for a long time. That’s why someone like Valerian had become the new elf king taking over the throne Lord Vega had left behind. This was based on his investigation after he and his mate left, Vera was imprisoned and he visited him once to save him.

They had a conversation that night and it was something unknown to the other elves except for some elder elf who chose to pretend not to notice the sneaking action of Vega.

The underground water prison is the worst kind of prison within the Elven Territory. It was located under the largest tree and it is a place that is enclosed without any location for light to slip into. In short, it is a dark place full of water and too quiet. One would have gone insane or become depressed in that place. However, if one possessed a strong will, they would be able to survive. This place is also one of the trial grounds for an Elven King. Though Valerian, this parachute elf king hadn’t experienced such a trial.

According to the record, only former elf king Vega and this prisoner, Elf Vera are capable of living in this underground, water prison.

As soon as Vega approaches a certain dark area in this water dungeon, a voice resounds.

This voice said, ”You shouldn’t have returned here, Lord Vega.”

”If I didn’t come back to check, would you continue to stay in such a place? Let’s go. Go back to the surface, Vera.” The former elf king, Vega said.

Vera responded, ”I am not going to the surface. At the very least not right now. After my father’s death, a lot of things which we used to not notice had started popping out. Your majesty, the clan is with too many holes created by those parasites. To allow all traitors to come out, letting Valerian be our way of doing so. As long as I am imprisoned in this place, those guys would come out. When the time that those traitors had all come out that will be the time I will come out.”

”What if when you come out what welcomes you is only destruction?” Former elf king Vega asked.

Vera chuckled and said, ”Without destruction there will be no end and no beginning. Your majesty, please live your life as you wish. I will take care of the rest. But if I ever need help in the future, will you lend me help?”

”I will. As long as you call for me, I will help you. Like when you help me and Heri escape from here.” Lord Vega made a promise.

Vera said, ”Then that is enough. There will definitely be a time I will ask for your majesty’s help.”

”I am no longer your king. Call me by my name,” said the former elf king, Vega.

Vera said, ”Alright, Lord Vega.”

That was the last time Lord Vega had spoken with Vera. All this time, after this conversation, news about Vera started to get sparse. Even though Vega didn’t choose to return to that water dungeon for the second time, he had always believed that Vera was alright. That was until Valerian, the new enthroned elf king at that time, had announced some deaths of his kin. Among the ones on the list is the name of the former great elder and Vera’s name. That’s why all this time, Lord Vega thought that Vera had longed to die.

The former elf king, Vega looked at his mate, the prophet Heri and said, ”I had given him a promise before. As thanks for helping us escape that day, I had said I would lend him a hand as long as he asked for it.”

”Go ahead. It is indeed time to repay our debts,” Prophet Heri said.

Some elders weren’t so keen to let their guardian leave. However, since the prophet had spoken, they didn’t say a word against him. Though the worry on their faces cannot be easily ignored.

Lord Vega, the current guardian of the Ancient Forest had spoken, after watching the other’s reaction.
