Chapter 2097: The Black Fairies III
Adrian and Creepysoo were led to a pocket dimension within the world tree where the fairy royalties are currently living. They were greeted by not only numerous fairies with butler and maid outfits but also fairy nobles. All of them bowed towards Hexy as if she was higher in rank compared to the Fairy Queen or Fairy King. As if Hexy or rather the character that she was before saved the entire fairy kingdom or something.
"Greet the mediator as well as the Prince of the Undead everyone." The Fairy King stated.
"We greet the Mediator and the Prince of the Undead." All the other fairies stated as they bowed towards Adrian and Creepysoo's direction.
"Can I now have an explanation? I am still a bit in the dark here and I am having emotions that I cannot control." Hexy stated as she now has full control of her body.
"It is no wonder that you lost your memory. You have just been reincarnated after all." The Fairy Queen stated.
"Did you mean that you're a Black Fairy Princess that died?" Creepysoo stated which made the entire audience hall a bit solemn.
"Sorry about that. I have very poor social cues sometimes." Creepysoo added.
"Do not worry, Prince of the Undead. What you have said is true, but it is now a joyous occasion because our daughter has returned." The Fairy Queen stated in a motherly voice.
"Can we get the full story at least? It will also be able to help Hexy as she has no idea of what is happening. We all know that reincarnation does not mean that all memories will be kept intact." Adrian stated as he is an expert when it comes to reincarnation.
"The mediator is correct. It would also give some light to the confusion that our daughter is now experiencing." The Fairy King stated as he recounted the events that happened on that fateful day.
The Distorted Gods attacked the world tree back then and the protectors were none other than the Faekin. The fairies and dryads even used their life in order to protect it and many of them have fallen because of it. The ones that were targeted first was none other than the Black Fairies because they had the innate ability to absorb and use miasma. They were the ones that purified any tainted energy that befell on the world tree.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
As long as the Black Fairies did not fall, the World Tree would be kept safe and the ones leading the Black Fairies was none other than the youngest daughter of the current Fairy King and Fairy Queen. They did not say the name that they have given as it would only confuse the soul of Hexy which Adrian also agreed. The Black Fairies were an essential part of why the World Tree could purify any miasma that the distorted gods have released.
The fight was arduous and difficult, but they were able to hang on because of the talented Black Fairy Princess. All would have been well until another Black Fairy that was the sister of the current Fairy Queen sided with the distorted gods. The Black Fairy known as Mavros killed all of the other black fairies while the distorted god attacked the world tree. The only one that was able to escape the slaughter of the Black Fairy Mavros was the Black Fairy Princess.
Still, the alliance of the Black Fairy Mavros and the distorted god created an almost unbeatable enemy for the Faekin. The Black Fairy Mavros were not the only ones that sided with the distorted god as those under her also joined. The dryads and leshy that were part of her royal guards became tainted to become horrible creatures that no longer have any resemblance of humanity.
To make matters worse, the Black Fairy Mavros and the distorted god even woke up the Primordial Beast Nidhoggr. The world tree was undergoing an attack from both above and below which made defending difficult. The Faekin were essentially immortal beings, but they can still die when killed. The difference is that they can live on as different beings as along as a part of themselves were planted on the ground which is called their 'Grafts'.
The Black Fairy Princess would have attempted to revive the other black fairies, but the Black Fairy Mavros devoured all of their 'Grafts'. Devouring the Grafts of another faekin is basically cannibalizing their own species but the Black Fairy Mavros gained a new power from the distorted god. She was able to devour the Grafts of other faekin to absorb their own power to grow her own.
The Black Fairy Mavros managed to absorb all of the Grafts of the black fairies except for the Black Fairy Princess which made her incredibly powerful. She was so powerful that she could singlehandedly rival both the Fairy Queen and Fairy King despite the latter being equipped with almost transcendent equipment made from the World Tree. When almost all hope is lost, the Black Fairy Princess unleashed her full potential and managed to repel the initial combined attack.
Unfortunately, the Black Fairy Mavros committed even more taboo by devouring the 'Grafts' of her own parents that was sealed in a special vault. The Black Fairy Mavros grew more in power and launched another attack with the distorted god that she allied with. The Fairy Queen and Fairy King combined were unable to match the strength of the Black Fairy Mavros to the point that they were almost killed until the Black Fairy Princess intervened.
The Black Fairy Princess should have been able to even the playing field by attacking the Black Fairy Mavros along with her family, but she needed to subdue the distorted god. The distorted god fused with the Primordial Beast Nidhoggr that was under the Black Fairy Mavros' control. The fight against them was so fierce but the Black Fairy Princess was able to defeat the distorted god. She was victorious but she was heavily injured as a result.
The Black Fairy Mavros saw that her niece was more powerful than both the Fairy King and Fairy Queen which is why she demanded her niece to offer her life in exchange for her parents. The black fairy princess agreed but her parents did not and tried to struggle. Seeing the pathetic struggle of her sister and brother-in-law, the Black Fairy Mavros cursed them with Withering. The sight of the fairy king and fairy queen slowly drying up triggered something inside of the black fairy princess.
The sight of her dying parents unlocked the fierce potential of the black fairy princess. This was the first instance that the Cursed World was awakened. A powerful domain skill said to have been owned by an Asmodian Black Fairy. A powerful wave of miasma that the army of the Black Fairy Mavros carried suddenly vanished as the black fairy princess absorbed all of it. The black fairy princess even undid the Curse of Withering that afflicted her parents. The Black Fairy Mavros suddenly saw the real power of this powerful domain skill and wanted it for herself. Using all of the Grafts that she devoured, the Black Fairy Mavros went into battle with the black fairy princess. The battle between the aunt and the niece was so fierce that all of the remaining faekin had to create a barrier to protect them and the world tree.
The battle lasted for five days and both combatants were battered to the point that they could barely remain standing. In fact, it was actually quite a surprise that both of them were still alive. The Black Fairy Mavros looked like a walking stick while the Black Fairy Princess no longer has her left wing, right hand, and left foot. The Black Fairy Mavros was the first to look like she was dying but she actually had a trump card.
The Black Fairy Mavros actually stole the Graft of the Enlightened Dryad. The Enlightened Dryad are none other than demigod level dryads that is equal to the strength to that of a Noblesse. The black fairy princess knew that she would definitely die and all of her loved ones if the Black Fairy Mavros absorbed that Grafts. As a last resort, the black fairy princess activated the Forbidden Skill attached to the domain Cursed World.
"Cursed World: Forbidden Sacrifice!" The black fairy princess shouted as she sacrificed her life and even the possibility of being erased from existence to kill the Black Fairy Mavros. The Black Fairy Mavros was cursed to death before she could even absorb the Grafts. The body of the Black Fairy Mavros started to turn to dust as well as the black fairy princess. They were both receiving the effects of the Cursed World: Forbidden Sacrifice as they were both the
targets.
"No! I would have been queen! Remember this! I shall return one way or another!" The Black Fairy Mavros shouted as her entire body turned to dust.
