Shepherding Humanity

Am I really an elf?

Looking at the man’s question, Yumiya suddenly had a strange feeling. This creature full of divinity and could even be called an ” elf ” would not lie, just like the kindness of elves would not lie.

"I’m an elf, the night Elf Ymir!” Ymir said firmly, looking at him warily.

"Are you really an elf?”

The man smiled and lit a bonfire in the room. He invited the seriously injured yumia to sit down, allowing her to buy time to heal her wounds. if you really are an elf, why are you so ruthless? ” So cruel? Lead the kind elves full of divinity and start a massacre of other races?”

Ymir, on the other hand, calmed down and said, ” because this is a war between species. I have no choice but to not exterminate the human race. With the tyranny of the human race, they will definitely exterminate us elves in the future and make us their slaves.

She believed that any intelligent human would not refute the correctness of this decision. If it were from a human’s perspective, they would definitely do the same.

"Yes, there’s nothing wrong with this thought.”

Ah Chou smiled and used his long knife to stir the bonfire. The sound of the firewood crackling could be heard, as if he was a traveler gathering in a broken house on a rainy night. He said leisurely, however, this correct war decision should be made by humans and not the kind elves. The kindness of elves, even if they know that it is right … They wouldn’t have had the heart to carry out such a brutal massacre.”

"Don’t be in a hurry to deny it.”

Ah Chou continued, ” I have observed the history of the elven race. They are kind, gentle, and do not lie. They have gathered the perfection of any life and all the beauty of the world. They are called … Divinity.

They could work hard and sacrifice their lives to protect their mother ancient tree, but if it was up to them … With the kindness of the elves, would they take the lives of other races in order to keep their own lives?

No, definitely not. They were too kind.

To take the lives of others for the sake of his own survival … This was the decision of humans, not the decision of elves … So, Ymir, are you really an elf?”

Ymir’s mind went blank. It was only at this moment that he realized what the real contradiction was. His decision had to be right! However, her thoughts were not what an elf should have!

For the continuation of the race, this was the way of thinking!

As the elven Emperor, she was no longer an elf. Perhaps … He was already a person?

Her head suddenly shook, and she couldn’t control herself.

Ah Chou continued calmly, ” I looked through the history of the elves and discovered that they were kind, harmonious, gentle, and not greedy. This also caused them to be unmotivated … A long time ago, the elven civilization had not advanced and lived in the forest.

They stopped at the age of wooden and stone tools, while greed was the true advancement of living beings.

As God had said, strong desire was the original sin of all things, the root of the loss of divinity, the root of all disasters and misfortunes in life, but it would also make living things move forward.

In order to get better weapons, he had to learn how to make iron.

Learning how to tame a Mount for a better journey.

In order to better fill their stomachs, they developed farming.

In order to become more powerful, he had to develop a cultivation system.

None of the previous elves had any of these qualities. They were pure, kind, and gentle like a pool of clear spring water. It was only when a certain elven Emperor appeared that he promoted the progress of the entire elven civilization, allowing the elves to cultivate because he had desires … However, success is due to desire, and failure is also due to desire. He stole the forbidden fruit.” Ah Chou laughed and stirred the long saber, causing sparks to flash.

Yomir was silent.

The elves were too flexible. It was not that they didn’t have desires, but that they lacked them. If it weren’t for the alchemists who brought the items to them, they wouldn’t have taken the initiative to buy equipment and study them.

If the mother tree had not ordered them to start a war and bury the enemy’s body under the tree, they would not have done anything.

She already had a terrifying thought. Due to the special nature of her birth, just like the previous elven Emperor Ymir, she had something that should not have existed in the pure divinity of the elves.

As the elven Emperor, due to the uniqueness of Ymir’s body as an elven hero, he had fallen from grace at birth and was no longer the perfect divinity of the elves … Perhaps, he was already a human.

As a human, he had selfish motives and began to want to protect those lovely elves, so he started to kill …

Her face turned bitter. For a moment, she didn’t know how to describe it.

"When you think you are you, you are not you. When you know you are not you, you are you … Do you understand who you are now?” Ah Chou’s eyes looked at her deeply. this is a ridiculous fallacy to begin with! Elves would not kill, only humans … That’s why they kill people!”

"Only humans kill?” She opened her eyes wide, and an inexplicable fear flashed through them.

The elven Emperor was actually a human!

If this were to spread, the entire world would be thrown into an uproar! The sensation it caused was unimaginable!

Pa!

Ah Chou laughed again. He lowered his head and stirred the firewood. He looked at the bright flame swaying and making a crisp sound, as if it contained the truth of the world and endless mysteries. I have observed for countless years. I found that the elves are incomplete. They are extremely incomplete. You don’t have to rush to refute …

He glanced at elf Emperor Ymir and said, ” as you can see, although they symbolize all the good and good in the world and have all the perfect characters, it is precisely because they have no greed and desire that they don’t want to make progress and will not resist. This may be what the ‘God’ who created them wanted! Only then would he be controlled … Because humans are greedy and can defy the heavens, but elves aren’t.”

Yumia’s eyes flickered as her mind was continuously assaulted.

This man was full of charm, as if he was the wisest man in the world who had seen through everything in the world.

"Who are you?” Suddenly, Ymir spoke softly, his voice bitter.

"The elven Emperor Ymir, you say … Divinity or humanity came first?” Ah Chou asked.

Ymir did not answer, but his heart was already in turmoil!

Was it divinity?

Or humanity first?

Every word and sentence was like a Thunderbolt, exploding in her heart.

I’ve listened to the words of humans for countless years. Joy, anger, greed, darkness, filth … While listening, I have already guessed the truth of this world, the text of history.”

Ah Chou looked at the bonfire, then at the ruined town outside. There were some women hugging their children. perhaps, a long, long time ago, when the world was just created, the ancient tree of Life and the ancient tree of war launched a ‘tree world War’. In order to protect themselves, they could breed complete humans in their fruits. However, they quickly discovered that intelligent creatures like humans were terrifying and had endless potential. Sooner or later, they would rebel against them.

Therefore, they made a decision. They extracted all the beauty and kindness in human nature and turned into elves … However, they discovered that they deprived the fairies of their desires and also caused the fairies to lose their motivation to move forward. They are kind, gentle, and loving like a pool of stagnant water.”

"You can’t deny this, right? Greed and desire, slaughter and war, are the true driving force for the advancement of a civilization!”

Thus, the ‘war of the elves’ that we saw after the ‘war of the tree world’ appeared. The ancient elven trees began to wage war against each other in an attempt to promote the development of civilization. Unfortunately, they were too slow and did not have any aggression from the bottom of their hearts. Perhaps if this continued as usual, after tens of thousands of years, the elven world would still be a pool of harmonious stagnant water …

Yomir’s mind was in a state of intense struggle.

She knew that she had heard the truth of the entire world, the entire history of the ancient elven tree … Why were elves born … Why did each elf tribe start a war?

It turned out that the perfect was the most imperfect, and the elves were not perfect!

From the very beginning, it was already partially incomplete.

She had always thought that elves came first, and despicable people came after stealing the forbidden fruit. She didn’t expect it to be the opposite!

In an instant, it subverted the ideas she believed in, and her pride as an elf was shattered!

On the other hand, the ancient elven trees seemed to be at war with each other, but they were actually very harmonious and could chat and discuss in the canopy.

That was until the appearance of a special night Elf hero, who led the elves to develop their civilization! It brought them a surprise, but the surprise it brought them in the end was beyond what they could tolerate …

Perhaps the greedy creature who stole the forbidden fruit was guilty, but he eventually became a key in history and pried open the beginning of the whole world!

The truth of our world is that the ancient trees now want to wipe out humanity and destroy the human race, not because they stole the forbidden fruit, fell from divinity, and became sinners, a race full of violence and incompleteness, and caused this land to lose its happy paradise … yomir whispered.

Yumia’s mind gradually came to a realization, and a terrifying thought burst out.’It’s them. They are life forms with complete human nature. They are complete existences that surpass divinity! One day, people will overthrow their rule!”

Perhaps the source of this calamity in the world of ancient trees wasn’t the war between elves and humans, but a war between divinity and humanity.

On the other hand, all of this was the hidden danger that the ancient tree of Life had planted when it extracted divinity from the beginning to create sprites.

Ymir was completely moved. He stood up and bowed deeply to ah Chou. thank you for your guidance, teacher.

"Dare I ask, what is human nature?” Yomir asked again.

"I’m guessing that the eleven ancient elven trees of life separated a person’s personality into three parts: divinity, demonic, and beastly.”

Ah Chou said faintly,”I only took the divinity in it to create sprites. The rest of the demonic and bestial nature is still stored in the fruit.”

Back then, when yilfan stole the forbidden fruit, not only did he steal the complete human nature in the fruit of life, but he also turned into a man … I also accidentally stole a pure demonic nature from the fruit, which is the opposite of the elven divinity.”

So, one of the children he gave birth to turned into a demon?

The demons had pure demonic nature, which corresponded to the pure divinity of elves?

One was of utmost good and the other was of utmost evil?

Ruhr was indeed evil. He participated in the war only for the continuation of the underground demon race. He knew that once the human race was destroyed, it would be the time for him and his children to die.

With the truth of history laid before her eyes, Ymir could not help but ask, ” “Then, what is the bestiality that has not been stolen?”

Divinity is good, demonic nature is evil. Divinity and demonic nature are both subjective wisdom of intelligent life … Only the bestiality is the most primitive survival instinct of living creatures, like the fierce beasts in the deep forest.” Ah Chou said with a smile.

I’m guessing that the ancient life Tree has divided human nature into three major aspects. What’s the proof? ” Ymir asked.

"I’m the evidence.”

At this moment, the demonic man, the bestial man, and a very normal human man with an ordinary face appeared at the door. However, he was like a ruthless machine, very cold.

I was originally ugly, and my name was ah Chou. My appearance came from my heart, and I gathered all kinds of distracting thoughts and bloodline. The ordinary-looking mechanical man replied, ” I brandished my saber day by day and listened to people’s complaints. The three distracting thoughts grew more and more, and finally converged into a mirror image. I then cut off the three distracting thoughts-the demon body, the God Body, and the Beast body.

The three mirror images started to gather and entered the expressionless ah Chou’s body. His emotionless eyes gradually flickered with humanity, ” three mirror images, when gathered together, I am a human.

In fact, ah Chou also had the true body of an ancestral sorcerer. However, his true body of an ancestral sorcerer did not transform. Instead, it became extremely huge and had three heads and six arms. Instead, it split off and turned into three mirror images.

They were the beast body, the God Body, and the demon body.

This was the truth that he had comprehended by referring to the rules of heaven and earth in this world, the laws of the ancient tree’s operation, the laws of its reproduction, and his own true body of the wizard ancestor.

Yumiya looked at ah Chou and couldn’t help but ask, ” “How’s your true form’s combat strength?”

Ah Chou explained, ” the mirror image clone’s combat power is only three and. half times that of the real one. Furthermore. its defense is weak. It has to withstand three times the damage of the real one … However, the death of the mirror image is not important to me. It will only consume some of my magic power.”

Yomir’s mind went blank.

This man clearly had the ability to use violence to suppress others, but he chose to use this method to convince her …

As a kind elf, she had chosen violence and brute force …

She felt bitter and completely lost her soul.

At this moment, she completely submitted to this man full of humanity. Brute force would not make her yield. She was not afraid of death, but this man was wise but appeared to be stupid. He was the smartest Saint in the world. The charm of his words crushed her hard heart, making her submit to him wholeheartedly.

"Ymir is willing to submit.”

Yumiya knelt down on one knee in front of the man. the elves are willing to make you King.

"What if I start a war against your mother tree?” Ah Chou spoke.

"The elves are willing to be the vanguard.” As a human, Ymir expressed his opinion.
