The Northern Sword God
War and Magic V
In fact, the forest in Mount Eater is a forest dominated by subtropical forest trees such as Oak Trees or Pine Trees.
At the very edge of the Eater Forest Field, where the soldiers were training in daily warfare, there was one oak tree that looked quite old. According to the estimation of the soldiers, the age of the tree is about 200 years with branches that expand to and fro so from afar, he looks like the wings of an Angel.
***
The Elves since noon had begun to decorate their ceremonial place right at the foot of the Ek tree. They hang hundreds, maybe even thousands, of lanterns, from the very top of the tree to the bottom. The tree looks like a lantern hanger.
In fact they form a kind of small stage and set a kind of path in the garnish of forest flowers and form a gate of the plant protruding, which forms a beautiful hallway to go to the stage at the foot of the Oak Tree. So many voices of the activities of the Elves men and women, to the point of attracting the attention of many soldiers around the field.
"What's wrong? Why did the Elves decorate the edge of the field bordering the dark forest?"
"They Elves will perform rituals and summon Magic.. Move !. No one was allowed to approach the edge of the field" a soldier threw out his curious comrades and tried to approach the Elves while decorating.
The talking soldier was one of the hundred special forces commanded, driving out anyone who tried to approach the special area during the Elven ceremony
,
"The closest minimum is one-quarter Lie of that Oak Tree" Lord Yong told a hundred special forces soldiers.
"You must also keep your distance from the Oak if you do not want to lose your sanity forever.
I and the Elves of the Grey Angel Sect will hold a special ritual to summon magical creatures, which will accompany the Elves when the war begins" said Mr. Yong.
"Well, would anyone ask?"
All quiet. None of the hundred soldiers dared to ask Mr. Yong any more questions. But timidly, a young soldier of age - it seemed like he was only 18 years old asked,
"I-I want to ask"
"Please !"
"Why do you have to be a magician? And w-why should everyone keep a minimum distance of a quarter of Lie from the event venue? M-why must it be far away" After asking, the young soldier's face immediately flushed red. He was a bit embarrassed because he felt he was too lazy to know further. But he felt they needed to know the exact reason why everyone was forbidden to approach the ritual place of the Grey Angel Sect.
"Good question. I will answer your two questions, and all of you must tell me according to my answer, when someone asks and wants to approach the Oak Tree" Sima Yong said. Proceeds,
"Why would a magical creature be used in warfare? The answer is because in one battle, magic creatures do not die or rather do not easily die with the weapons of the world. Magic creatures will only weaken or die if attacked using magic or magic weapons"
"Why should you stay away from a certain distance from the Elf ritual place? The answer is because the ceremony will use magic effects to invite the presence of magic creatures that they mean.
Have you ever heard of a magic that drugged the Elves?" ask Mr. Yong. The soldiers shook their heads, showing signs of ignorance.
Then all the soldiers said, "We've never seen such magic"
"Well I'll show you how dangerous rituals are, for people who don't have an understanding of soul power" Mr. Yong then began to sing a single verse of the song,
When the night is drugging,
When only the stars are the source of the world's illumination,
When the Elves were awakened from their slumber and recognized as the first child,
The trees had been around for a long time before the first child woke up..
(these are purely author-written words, not quoted from any song or poem lyrics)
Mr. Yong (who calls him Mr. Yong) sings in a voice that sounds like a flute. He sings slowly. While the chant of the song confirmed how clear his voice was, it sounded drugging containing magic. In an instant the hundred eyes had lost consciousness, entering a trance.
Plok - plok - plok, Mr. Yong clapped three times as much. He made people possessed earlier.
On the third hand,
Bam ! The hundred soldiers woke up from the trance state all of a sudden.
"W-what happened?" ask the young soldier.
"You have lost consciousness. But that's just a piece of the lyrics of the song I sang. What if you guys came close and heard a hundred Elves singing together, which was emitting an anesthetizing magic power like that earlier?
Do you think you'll still be alive? Yes, you may still be alive. But you will only be a lump of flesh without life. Because your consciousness has been trapped in endless trance" explained Mr. Yong.
Hearing that explanation, the hundred soldiers shuddered in horror.
"We understand ! Thank you Lord Yong's kindness for restoring our consciousness" The hundred soldiers shuddered in horror, imagining when they would be trapped forever in a hallucination forever. They secretly promised to block anyone who intended to break through and witness the ritual closely.

The first fist had just been rung, when it was at the foot of the Oak Tree had completed the Elves of the Gray Angel Sect, plus two other Elf descendants namely Sima Yong and Ye Bing Qing.
Sima Yong is seen driving away Atid Ananada, as the young boy insists on following the Elf ritual up close. Atid was immediately told to leave by Sima Yong.
With a grumbling face Atid complained,
I wonder, why am I not allowed to join in the ritual procession of my descendants?" atid complains with a dissatisfied face.
"Go there! Even though you are the descendant of Dark elves.. But you are completely blind about magic. Not even those magician soldiers I'm allowed to join. The magic of the elves is too powerful.
Listen Atid.. You will be needed in the war later ! Your place is not here, in this group of witches. I don't want you to go crazy before the war starts" hardened Sima Yong.
Atid immediately slurped away with a frown, and he joined a tent that had been put up with a protective Array by Sima Yong where Prince Ju Qin and other experts who had a minimum cultivation of SAINT.
"You better use earplugs, even though I blocked the magic sound from this tent" Sima Yong told Pageran Ju Qin.
"I will wear earplugs, when I start to feel possessed" Prince Ju Qin refused stubbornly.
"All right..."

That night, as Sima Yong walked through the tunnel, the vines were decorated with white lanterns.. He felt as if they were in a very different place. So foreign, so beautiful yet so sedating.
Sima Yong felt a surprise as he exited the vines tunnel. Looks one amazing sight that is exposed to spoil the eyes.
The oak tree looks very beautiful in the white light of lanterns hanging from the top to the bottom.
"It's so beautiful." Sima Yong's inner. His eyes looked around in all directions, admiring the decoration.
The lanterns looked so amazing, as if the tears of a god were dangling in a drugging white radiance. When he looked up and looked up at the sky, as far as the eye could see only the stars adorned the dark sky that looked like a dark velvet carpet.
On the branches of the oak tree, sat happily two Elf girls holding harp made of gold. The hair color of the two Elf girls was so contrasting with each other. One was as dark black as soot, while the other was as light as silver on the fire in the jeweler's fireplace.
Two other young Elf men stood on the branches with flutes attached to the lips, making a clear and beautiful sound. One other male Elf sat on his shoulder to beat tambur accompanied the music of four other Elves. They were all wearing white tunic clothes.
Sima Yong at that time also wore a long white tunic, with a headdress similar to the forest flowers that form a crown, coiled around the head. He approached Ye Bing Qing and Master Huang who had first been at the foot of the Oak Tree.
"Hello young man." greeted Master Huang with delight..
He saw that Patriarch Huang and Ye Bing Qing were also wearing long white tunics, with flower crown ornaments. It seemed like it was the color of the clothes that had been determined for this special occasion.
"Let's start" cried Patriarch Huang happily.
"Let's start" greeted the others with joyous cheers. The screams echoed everywhere, containing drugging magic and making the guard soldiers feel their heads dizzy and drunk.
Nervously the soldiers shouted,
"Use the earplugs !" their instructions to each other.
It was far away on the sidelines.
The soldiers who were off duty were so curious about what was happening in that place of the Elves. When the boisterous voices of magic-wielding Elves were heard, many of them collapsed.
"I told you, though,.. Don't comenear. Still you're wayward to want to get closer to seeing the ceremony" said a special guard soldier.
At the foot of the old Oak Tree...
Without asking, one Elf girl stood on the stage, then heard reciting poetry aloud. His voice was so beautiful it sounded like a flute.
Welcoming such beautiful and poetic-sounding poetry, the Elf Group clapped loudly, praising the cleverness of the elven girl writing her poetry.
Meanwhile on the Oak Tree stage, the music continued to sound in a carefree tone. Patriarch Huang leaped forward to the small stage and put forward a play of charades.
Of course, such mystery questions are welcomed by all the elves who answer each other cheerfully. Their small cries sounded drugging the audience as it condensed to contain a magical aura.
Then laughing, Sima Yong took out a jumble of Fion drinks which recipe he got from the Elves of the Silver Continent. Then cup after cup flowed through the throats of each Elf who was growing madness.
The drunk Elf-Elf choir, singing out loud song after song all followed. Magic power is getting thicker, getting wider everywhere. Creeping from the Peak of the Eater, entering the darkness of the Forest.
In the air full of such an intoxicating aura, Sima Yong saw one after another strange dark creatures, fluttering in the sky of Peak Eaters. All of the magic creatures sought the attention of the Elf Witch Group, where they emerged from the depths and darkness of the Forest of Eater.
The creatures were mostly magical beasts, so drugged by the thick magic aura emanating from the merry chants of the Elf group.
Magic creatures are always hungry for magic auras. They act like people who have not eaten for days. The fact that the Aura of magic was the most nutritious meal for such magic creatures.
Some of the strange dark creatures did not dare to appear, only hiding in the dark of the night. However there was also one two who were quite brave, appearing and standing not too far away while watching and deeply inhaling all the magic aura. The flaming spies were visible from afar, making the nape of the soldiers crumble.
Sima Yong noted in his heart, each of the self-naming magical beasts was a Snake Demon creature that transformed into a green-clothed female figure, seen sitting on the edge of the stage and dine full of ritual worship.
In addition there was the sighting of one beautiful woman dressed in white, whom Sima Yong knew was the incarnation of the nine-tailed White Fox Demon. The white-clothed woman stood some distance away with one man dressed in feathers who was the three-headed Lion demon incarnation.
