Elf Kingdom: Game of the World Tree
Chapter 476 - 456: Betrayal and Fall

Chapter 476: Chapter 456: Betrayal and Fall

Oros had stepped into the Demigod Level.

Less than ten years after meeting the Mother Goddess, he broke through the mortal barriers, successfully igniting his own Law Divine Fire, becoming a true Demigod.

At the same time, the divine oracle of the World Tree was issued to the various Natural Temples.

Demigod Oros was formally recognized by the Mother Goddess, becoming one of the eight Demigod-level Divine Favored under her.

For the World Tree, which had no Sub-god level True God, this was already equivalent to being a de facto subordinate god.

From then on, the Elf Ranger known for rebelliousness among the elves and Half-Elves was no more.

In his place was the eighth Demigod Envoy of the Nature Church, the Life Guardian who understood the law of life...

Oros’s promotion was unexpected for the elves and Half-Elves.

They hadn’t thought that the rebellious guy would receive the favor of a True God.

However, the conflict between Oros and the Church was intensifying...

For ordinary elves and Half-Elves, some of Oros’s radical ideas were as unacceptable as heretical doctrines.

His advancement to Demigod and official entry into the Natural Church’s management did not improve Oros’s relationship with other elves, especially other Demigods...

"Arrogant? This isn’t arrogance, it’s pride!"

"The Elf Clan was originally the most perfect race created by the Mother Goddess, a god-created race, fundamentally incomparable to those with lowly bloodlines!"

"Without us, how many races could have developed civilization by now? Can you really think they would surpass us?"

"Oros, you worry too much about them."

"Ignore him, he’s just a madman, a madman with paranoia!"

"It’s simply heresy!"

"Heresy is indeed more frightening than paganism..."

Excluded, neglected.

Oros gradually became marginalized in the Church.

However, his conviction only grew stronger.

"The Mother Goddess recognized me, this is trust!"

"The Elf Clan is no longer what it used to be... I have to do something, change the perception of elves and Half-Elves!"

The conversation with the Mother Goddess did change some of Oros’s thoughts.

At least, knowing the Mother Goddess’s perspective on the elves, she no longer desired them to retain a dominant position.

But how to make the elves accept reality, how to make them recognize threats, how to let them retreat peacefully, was a matter that needed careful handling...

However, the course of events always exceeded expectations.

War came.

Came unexpectedly.

Mighty divine power filled the sky, majestic golden figures appeared above the Elf Forest, and almost all the sentient races, as if agreed, sent armies to surround the Elf Kingdom.

On that day, the True Gods of Faith... betrayed their mentor, the Mother of All Gods who guided them to divine enthronement.

Led by the gods of humanity, more than a hundred True Gods of Faith surrounded the World Tree.

Their majestic and grand voices resonated above the Elf Forest...

"Mother of All Gods... This is the last time we address you as Mother of All Gods..."

"You are too powerful, and this power is too dangerous..."

"The era of the ancient gods and elves has passed... Your existence, your potential, your uniqueness... to the Segis Plane, and even the entire Segis Universe, is a great threat..."

"So, we’re sorry."

"Yggdrasil, today you must fall."

The voices of the True Gods were holy and indifferent.

Oros and several other Demigods stood by the Mother Goddess’s side.

They looked at the gods besieging them, feeling disappointed and indignant.

"Uller! You too have joined in the assault against the Mother Goddess? Have you forgotten who helped the Half-Beasts through the crisis?"

Oros looked at a particular majestic figure, his expression angry.

However, he only received a soft sigh in response:

"I am grateful for Yggdrasil’s past help."

"But, I value the future more than the past."

"Traitor! You don’t deserve to be called a True God!"

Oros declared angrily.

The True God was not to be desecrated.

Oros’s disrespectful roar drew many cold snorts from the True Gods.

Instantly, sharp divine might enveloped him.

However, the Mother Goddess gently waved her hand, brushing away all the pressure from him.

"So this is... this is your choice?"

She sighed slightly.

The Mother Goddess’s voice carried a hint of understanding, a trace of sadness, and a tinge of regret.

Her expression bore a hint of self-mockery:

"It seems, I too was arrogant... I actually thought you would understand..."

After speaking, the Mother Goddess smiled at the few Demigods of the Elf Clan:

"You all should leave."

"Take the elves and Half-Elves away."

"This is a war between me and them, it’s none of your concern."

"The future of the Elf Clan depends on you..."

With that, she gently waved her hand, sending the Demigods of elves and Half-Elves to an alternate space.

Then, the Mother Goddess looked at the gods, her aura continuously rising.

The plants of the entire Elf Forest also came to life in an instant.

"Come, let me see how much you’ve grown..."

She looked down at the surrounding gods with a slight smile.

...

The divine battle began.

This unprecedented battle lasted a day and a night.

Until mountains crumbled, until the earth collapsed, until the entire Segis World was severely damaged in this divine war...

And the World Tree, after defeating more than twenty True Gods, finally could not withstand the gods’ siege, and ultimately fell.

Oros, who had been sent to the alternate space, did not witness the course of the war.

When he and several Demigods broke free, the divine war had ended.

What greeted them was the news of the World Tree’s fall, and the territory of the Elf Clan being divided by numerous True Gods.

The Mother Goddess had fallen.

And the Segis World, hurt to its core by this extraordinary battle, had energy levels almost dropping below the Mythical Rank.

The external passages of the entire plane were closing, and the gods had no choice but to leave the plane and move into the Heavenly Realm.

Yet, with the divine war ended, the nightmare for the Elf Clan had just begun...

When the gods left, they placed a curse on the Elf Clan that locked their rank.

Without the protection of a True God, and now cursed, the Elf Clan became prey in the eyes of many races.

In a single night, the Elf Clan faded away.

Completely faded away.

Millennia of prosperity shattered like a bubble.

Oros and the remaining Demigods could only lead the remnants of the Elf Clan to eke out a living in the Elf Forest.

"The Mother Goddess could have leveraged the entire plane to counter the gods, yet in the end... she chose to sacrifice herself."

"I will revive the Mother Goddess! No matter what price I must pay, I will awaken the Mother Goddess!"

Oros clenched his fist.
