Chapter 148: The Tree of Life and the Elf Princess
“I understand, Miss Sephirena. May I ask what your relationship with Princess Liana is now?” Gardenia asked.
“Guard.”
“Guard?” Gardenia wasn’t very clear about the extent of Sephirena’s abilities. They didn’t know much about the current outside situation, but she felt that Sephirena seemed somewhat inadequate.
“You don’t need to worry about my safety. With Minoga here, I’m very safe,” Liana said. “You just need to help Sephirena cultivate the Tree of Life.”
“Besides, as an Elf Princess, she should have some knowledge in this area. Perhaps she can find the reason for the Tree of Life’s withering?” Liana deliberately said this for Sephirena to hear. “Maybe because of this, she can regain the recognition of the forces of nature?”
Recognition...
Recognition had no meaning to Sephirena anymore. She didn’t need the recognition of the forces of nature; what she wanted was only the truth of what happened back then.
Sephirena looked at Gardenia, somewhat puzzled. She hadn’t detected at all that Gardenia was an elf. How was it done, to be able to hide herself so perfectly?
“What did you do? Why couldn’t I tell you were an elf?” Sephirena had only lost the forces of nature; she hadn’t completely become someone who’s unable to use magic.
“This is a secret potion given to me by Lady Ambis. It allows me to completely conceal my identity. Since you were brought here by Princess Liana, I can choose to trust you. Moreover, since we’re discussing the Tree of Life, I believe presenting myself this way to Princess Sephirena would be more convincing,” Gardenia said.
“What kind of potion is that?” Sephirena had never heard of this before. Being able to make an elf appear completely similar to a human, with no way to tell they were an elf, was something that had never happened before.
“Does Princess Sephirena also want to take it?” Gardenia immediately saw through Sephirena’s thoughts, then shook her head. “I’m sorry, this is a potion specially formulated by Lady Ambis for me. It can be said that in this world, it only works when I take it.”
