“My guards—!” Yu Ling said, “The sacred tree has long foretold that the Elf Kingdom will face a dark calamity. As a prince of the Elf race, I must stand up and face it. I… will absorb all the corruption. Therefore, the future of the Elf Kingdom is entrusted to you to protect.”
After saying this, Yu Ling, who had given away all her blessing magic, was invaded by all the darkness. The entire elf quickly turned black and began to transform into a dark-skinned creature.
"Your Highness..."
The elves were all moved by Yu Ling's peril, but they themselves were also more or less corrupted. Before they could repair themselves, they could only watch helplessly as the elf prince sacrificed himself to save them.
Most of the polluted energy was absorbed by Yu Ling, and her skin quickly turned gray. However, her other magical talents quickly suppressed the dark skin that had appeared due to the pollution, and she returned to her original appearance.
However, his aura is now tainted with the same scent as that of a dark elf, and his other innate magical powers are being continuously weakened.
He declared, "From this day forward, all corrupted spirits are forbidden from approaching the sacred tree!"
After Yu Ling finished speaking, she used her last strength to seal and transfer the Elf Kingdom, but left herself behind, in front of the dark elf Kaio and the armored humans.
However, while the other wailing elves were oblivious, a new member with bristling fur was thrown into the original owner's palace.
Yu Ling chuckled to herself, "System, I've taken care of the main source of the pollution. From now on, the task of protecting the Sacred Tree of the Spirits is yours!"
The system, which was forcibly purchased with the body of an elf with the talent of purification, was thrown into a parabola. Before it could adapt to its new body and fly, it crashed hard to the ground, and then disappeared along with the entire elf kingdom.
[Host, you're not taking me along for your solo adventures again!] The system really wanted to cry, but the mission was more important, so it grumbled and crawled off to deal with the pollution.
—On the other side—
Kaio had been holding back his ultimate move for so long, unleashing such a powerful source of pollution, only to have it neutralized by Yu Ling's selfless sacrifice. He felt a pang of regret, but the fact that the world now had one more corrupted elf, and one who was once a high and mighty elf prince at that, secretly pleased him.
Kaio: Hmph, so you've finally met your match?!
Although both were corrupted, Yu Ling, this dark elf formed later in life, did not have Keo's dark skin. Her once brilliant golden hair had faded to a silver-gray. Her appearance was still stunning, but she lacked the dazzling filter and gained a touch of mystery.
"Hahaha! How come even the Elven prince has been driven out by his beloved people?"
Kaio was unaware that Yu Ling had left voluntarily because she feared his presence in the Elf Kingdom would corrupt the Sacred Tree. Taking advantage of his numerical superiority, he sexually assaulted Yu Ling, all the while displaying a mocking expression and constantly taunting her.
"Why aren't your wings shining anymore? Ah~ Your power has vanished! Are you afraid? Are you terrified? Your noble elven prince is about to be touched by us filthy dark elves~~~"
The protagonist laughed maniacally, while the weak and helpless villain was forced to retreat repeatedly, but he could never escape the constantly toying hands, and could only glare at the other party with shame and indignation.
Before long, a dark magical chain bound and locked the precious treasure that the elves cherished, forcibly controlling the mentally unstable dark elf to stay by his side.
Yu Ling wanted to stay with the protagonist for the time being so that he wouldn't secretly cause trouble for the Spirit Tree and add to the side quests, which is why she didn't resort to other means of resistance.
But this Cade... seems to have been driven crazy by his temper. He's not only verbally abusive, but his hands are also incredibly irritating!
However, Yu Ling, who was trying to maintain her persona, had to cooperate with his performance from time to time, saying things like, "Don't touch me with your filthy hands!", "Traitor, elves will never associate with humans!", "Where are you taking me?", and she also had to struggle from time to time.
And then...
Kao became even more excited.
This dark elf is mentally unstable, but the other human warriors are perfectly clear-headed. One of them, whose armor is thicker than the others, approached the two elves who were interacting and asked hesitantly:
"Lord Kaio, are we really going to take this elf back?"
As the darlings of the world, beings hated by elves will be plagued by bad luck. At best, they will be unlucky for a few days; at worst, they will even affect their relatives and friends and risk their lives.
That's why the unprotected dark elf, Cad, attracted so many perverts who wanted to treat elves the same way, and suffered so much hardship that elves shouldn't have to endure.
"What's there to be afraid of? Hasn't he been corrupted too? With new elves to play with, your Earl is probably more than happy!"
After saying that, Kaio poked Yu Ling's smooth cheek again, but Yu Ling was now immune to this cheeky protagonist and didn't even give him a second glance.
Alas, the sacred tree of fairies is easily corrupted, so Yu Ling can't go wild. This Cade has a magical attribute of being unkillable, and the settings of the fairy tale world are also unpredictable. Who knows, she might be 'hated by the world' in the process of fighting back.
Therefore, if Yu Ling wants to stay by the protagonist's side, she has to be a little more reserved. Of course, that's all she can do; she can't possibly be... ahem... added to the game along with him, can she?
Getting back to the main point, Keo's confident words convinced the human warriors, and the group embarked on their return journey in a grand procession. Yu Ling even got to experience being a public dragon.
Dragons are the main mode of transportation in this fairy tale world, and each country trains dragon riders to ride them.
Of course, none of this has anything to do with Yu Ling for the time being.
The countries in the fairy tale world are quite down-to-earth. There are fruit and vegetable stalls everywhere, and barbershops, bakeries, clothing stores, tailors, talking pet cats, dogs and horses, and travelers wandering around dressed in strange clothes can be seen everywhere on the streets.
Yu Ling, such a beautiful elf, was caught and weaved through the crowd, quickly drawing exclamations of admiration for her beauty from the crowd.
Kao was very unhappy with what he heard.
When he was first captured, everyone was saying things like, "What kind of monster is that?!", "An elf? Elves can be black?", "Good heavens! You can't even see him when it's dark." and so on.
Only a handful of people would say, "This dark elf is actually quite beautiful if you look closely."
Why is it that when Yu Ling arrives, all she receives are praise and blessings, and even wishes are made on the spot? She's a prize she captured herself, can't she see that huge chain?!
