The Queen of Scrolls never admits defeat

"My spiritual power is naturally like this," Moran said frankly. "The elders in the tribe all say that because I am a 'child of the Tree of Life,' my talent is much higher than that of ordinary elves."

Upon hearing this, several mid-level elves instinctively retorted, with a bewildered and exasperated expression, wondering, "What kind of reason is that?"

“Which elf doesn’t grow from a tree? I’m the ‘Child of the Tree of Glory’!” Tobias exclaimed.

“Yes! I am also a ‘child of the Shadow Tree’!” The other two mid-level Shadow Elves chimed in.

The mid-level Star Spirits looked at each other: "We all grew from the Starlight Ancient Tree, we are the true children of the Starlight Ancient Tree! But our spiritual power isn't this exaggerated!"

They all chimed in, feeling that Moran's explanation was too perfunctory.

However, after they finished speaking, they found that Celestian, Alfred, and Viola, the three senior figures, not only did not agree, but also fell into deep thought.

Tobias sensed the unusual atmosphere. Looking at the solemn expressions on the faces of his three seniors, he couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Professor Celestian, Professor Alfred, Professor Viola... you don't really think that's the reason, do you?"

Celestian didn't answer Tobias immediately. He took a step forward, closer to Moran, and asked, carefully enunciating each word:
"Moran...you mean...you weren't hatched from the life cocoon formed by the fusion of your elven parents' soul energy and the Tree of Life...but rather a child conceived and hatched solely by the tree spirit?"

Upon hearing this, the mid-level elves who had been shouting just moments before fell silent, their eyes wide and mouths slightly agape.

Did the tree spirit gestate and hatch on its own?

This unique method of birth for the first generation of elves was extremely rare, even during the glorious era of the high elves.

In the early stages of the branching of the various elves and the branching of the mother tree, there were also first-generation elves of the branches. However, as things have developed, such examples of being directly conceived by tree spirits have become legends in their respective inherited memories.

Moran nodded slightly.

"No wonder! No wonder your spiritual power is so unfathomable! No wonder you can easily master multiple high-level professions at the same time! If your soul essence and body are directly derived from the Tree of Life and you are a first-generation nature spirit, then it makes perfect sense. You are the one with the most concentrated bloodline among the branch spirits. Your innate spiritual power is indeed something that cannot be matched by acquired cultivation."

Immediately, all the elves understood.

Moran had an expression that said, "I knew this would happen."

In the Emerald Tribe, whenever she displayed a learning speed far exceeding that of elves of the same age, a quick grasp of complex inherited knowledge, or did something that seemed quite astonishing to the nature elves, everyone was first surprised, and then some elves would say things like, "After all, she is a child of the Tree of Life..."

As soon as these words are uttered, everyone will immediately show expressions of "Oh, then it's alright" or "So it was a gift from the Tree Spirit," as if all the abnormalities are automatically rationalized in her case.

After a brief moment of shock and understanding, an even more fervent and burning desire arose in the hearts of all the elves present.

Tobias was the first to lose control. He clenched his fists, his golden eyes shone brightly, and his voice trembled slightly with excitement: "The first generation of nature elves are already this strong... then, how powerful must the true high elves have been at their peak!"

The first generation of spirits from the Nature Spirits lineage alone, with their displayed talents and potential, have already overturned their understanding.

So what about the high elves who have perfectly mastered the power of stars, the power of light, the power of shadow, the power of nature, and even the power of spirit?

Unbelievable! Yet it's so alluring it sends shivers down your spine!
"We must succeed!" Viola's eyes burned with an almost pious flame. "No matter what, we must complete the bloodline atonement ritual and become a true high elf!"

Celestian nodded and looked at Moran: "Now it's your turn to share the inherited memories, is that alright?" He wanted to complete the inheritance of the nature elves as soon as possible, to study nature magic, and see if he could meet the requirements of the bloodline reversion ritual.

Moran met his eager and expectant gaze, and without the slightest hesitation, nodded readily and firmly: "Of course!"

In just one day, she used the resonance device to almost completely acquire the inherited memories of the three great spirits, Star, Corona, and Deep Shadow, up to their high-level forms.

The gains far exceeded her initial expectations.

This not only greatly enriched and supplemented her understanding of the mainstream magical civilization of the Thran world, but also provided crucial assistance for her to accept the magical concepts of various branches of elves, complete the bloodline reversion ritual, and obtain the inheritance of high elves.

She would never be stingy with these elven companions who generously shared their precious heritages and who shared the same goals as her.

"And I heard from Tobias that the association has arranged a private lounge for each official member within the 'Gathering Place'?" Moran asked.

Celestian nodded and said, "Yes! It's not very big, but it's completely free."

“Very good.” Moran smiled, then made a decision that moved everyone, “Then, I plan to reside permanently at the Fusion Place from now on.”

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was stunned.

While the Convergence Centre provides free lounges for its members, high-level professionals are perfectly capable of securing better accommodations within the Amethyst Ring.

Putting that aside, the faculty apartments provided by the academy are better than this.

Celestian thought she hadn't seen the mentor benefits on the offer letter, so he emphasized them to her again.

Moran shook his head: "It's fine to live here. From now on, whenever any of you need to receive the inherited memories of the nature spirits, or have any questions in any field related to nature magic... you can come to me directly, and I will do my best to help you."

With the inherited memories given to her by everyone, plus the ones she collected herself, and the library of Starshine Magic Academy, her learning progress will be very fast. She might soon be able to complete the bloodline atavism ritual, obtain the inherited memories of the high elves, and even leave the world of Thran.

The invitation from the world of Seran is too precious. Once she leaves, she doesn't know if she will ever have the chance to come back.

Even if there is an opportunity, it will be a long time from now.

She wonders if the elves she knows now will still be around by then.

So she wanted to answer their questions as much as possible to repay the elves for their help.

The elves were flattered by her decision, but it was exactly what they needed right now.

The lack of inheritance among the nature spirits has resulted in nature magic being a persistent weakness for each of them.

This can be seen from the sparse plants growing in the flowerbeds beside the central fountain. (End of Chapter)
