"Then let's make a team to go. Because we will need to secure our area and path to the void. Let's call a meeting and get things planned out thoroughly." Blake picked Pue up and stood up. Since it would help his people and would be very beneficial, he would risk it in order to make his people's lives better.

An hour later, all the elders of the elder council were gathered. "Is what you say true?" Regia asked as she looked at Blake with excitement in her eyes. "If it really is the tree of life, our Destiny City will greatly benefit! I can promise that my race will work around the clock to keep up the illusion around it."

"Us fairies will also guard it around the clock." Mina's grandfather spoke up. He had a look of determination on his face.

Blake was surprised just how much the tree of life could be considered a target of desire, even in the eyes of people who he never thought would be this greedy. He took a deep breath as he said: "Calm down everyone. I am glad you are all willing to take on these duties, but those who do will need to be under an additional contract. The tree of life is a target of desire for all races and should be handled with care. Anyone caught stealing from it will be imprisoned. So we will need to make sure all new contracts are formed with all citizens. These will be forced contracts to keep the tree of life a complete secret and to keep people from stealing from it."

"I am willing to sign any contract even if I were to be a slave as long as I can protect the tree of life," Regia replied firmly. Blake was actually quite curious as to why she was so keen on this.

"As will us fairies." Mina's grandfather was the same.

"May I ask why you two would go so far?" Blake did not understand.

"It's because…." Regia looked at Mina's grandfather, who nodded his head at her and sighed. "It is said that us pixies and the fairies were born from mana. But this is not true. Like the girl in your arms, we came from another realm. Our history dates back trillions of years. The world we lived in was a world governed by a tree of life. This tree gave birth to our race. But one day, the world came under attack by beings from another world. The tree of life, in its desperation, scattered its seeds to other realms and worlds before dispersing all together and creating a tear in space.

"Our races, thanks to the tree of life, escaped to this world. But only so many of us made it through before the tear in space was destroyed. If that world really has a tree of life, then it could be a seedling from the tree of life from our original world. It is more important to us than our own lives. You can say that the tree of life is our mother, and the offspring of the tree of life are our aunts.

"As children of the tree of life, we need to pay our respects to our family and protect the tree of life with our lives." Regia's words made Lillia nod. It was as if she had come to an understanding.

"So this is why I never found any evidence of a tree of life. It was something from another world." Lillia suddenly spoke.

"Wait. I do not understand. The elders of the elven clan also wanted to find a tree of life and worked hard trying to discover it, but if the tree of life is from the void you all came from, did your people pass this story on to the other races? I am not sure…" Noa was very confused at this point.

"I think it was probably one of my race's people using it as a means to prank your kind. Although, at one point, our races, the pixies, and fairies did have quite a few fruit of life. Which many races coveted. But over millions of years, they were consumed. After all, the fruit is not a seed. It can not give birth to another tree of life." Regia sighed as she floated over to Blake and bowed her head. "So please, on behalf of not only the pixies but the fairies as well, I ask of you to allow us to become the tree of life's guardians."

"Alright, we can do that. I see no harm in it." Blake nodded his head and patted Regia's head. "But we first need to confirm it, so do not keep your hopes up just yet. You and Mina will come with us on this journey into the void. So you can help us identify it."

"I thank you!" Regia was in tears hearing this. She knew it was still a big what if, but she could only hope that it was truly a tree of life.

"Alright, With four members set, including me, Bret, you, and five hundred men, will help with keeping the path clear. There are many monsters there, as you saw. Lillia is in charge of keeping the void open. Mina and Regia are to confirm that it truly is a tree of life. Faana, you and Noa will be coming as heavy hitters. Everyone else is to protect our home. Clance, you and Olinia are both very powerful now due to your new mana cores with condensed mana. So I know you can handle anything that comes. This goes for all of you. Stay strong. If you see an enemy, kill them!" Blake hoped this trip would go smoothly, but there was no telling what might happen.

"Don't worry. The people of Destiny City are no longer weak. If we were to now fight the orc army from before, we would be able to wipe them out without any help." Mike spoke up.

"I hate to say it, but his words are true." Onz sighed. He, too, had grown much stronger due to the mana core he now had, but if he were to fight the current Destiny City, he would instantly die. Any person on the street with battle experience can probably fight a general now.
