Reincarnated as a World

Chapter 73 Sacred Lands

Ch.73 Sacred Lands

Eridel finally looked at the 3rd species that was allowed access to this Sacred Land. And unsurprisingly, they were a group of Humans. In this World, due to the great amount of dexterity, agility and gracefulness that a Human was able to employ, they were used as valuable Servants that all the Beast Lords tried to obtain.

It got to a point that the more powerful Beast Kings used them as a show of authority, some conversation amongst the more shameless Beast Kings went something like:

‘You see my servants? They’re great right?... No I’m not boasting, I just wanted to talk to you about the effort I spent in obtaining them!... No, not I’m actually helping you! One day you might find a group of Humans like I did and I can show you how to capture them. I mean, even though it was quite easy for me, it might be hard for... hey, where are you going?!’

Eridel wasn’t surprised that the Humans were treated like this because they were essentially powerless. Their only good ability was the ability to escape but even then they still ended up being enslaved on a daily basis. However, things will not always be like this...

Eridel briefly thought about 2 special individuals in the North Continent before refocusing back on the Sacred Land.

A Sacred Land was a Land blessed by Essence and always affected the area around it based on the primary Essence in the territory. For example, if the majority of the Essence here was Fire Energy, then many of the Herbs and maybe even some of the Trees would gain Fire Affinities. On top of that, the Magic Stones produced in this area would also be packed with Fire Energy instead of Magical Energy and would have at least 10 times the effect on individuals with the corresponding Mana Affinity.

Normally, such spectacular locations like this would be very, very hard to form and even rarer to see. You certainly would never see one in a World that had only had Magical Energy for 127 years but here it was; A complete and undeniable Sacred Land.

However, Eridel was not delusional. He knew it wasn’t because of anything special on his part and he wasn’t about to get pompous. The true benefactor of this Sacred Land was actually Jörma, the territory owner herself.

As previously mentioned, when an Owner of a territory was strong enough, his presence would begin to permeate into the territory. When this happened, the territory would give off an almost imperceptible aura and faint smell that was reminiscent of the Owner, usually acting as a deterrent to predators with keener instincts.

But it was deeper than that.

Eridel felt like facepalming.

The Abomination Of The North whilst sealed was still very much alive, or as alive as something harbouring Undeath Essence could be at least. He should be more than capable of making his own Sacred Land and the thought caused Eridel to feel... fear.

Never in his entire 2 lives had something he had created caused him fear but apparently there really was a first time for everything. Even when he was a mere mortal back on Earth and he was up close and personal with all manners of dangerous things he created, he had never felt like this.

‘Damn... This Abomination is really amazing. Hahaha~’

Eridel laughed but he was still worried. What... What the hell would happen if an Abomination like that was able to form a Sacred Land? It terrified him because if things went out of control it might end up being too late, but it also excited him at the same time. He really, really wanted to know.

Eridel focused on a certain area in the Western Region of the North Continent where all those Undead Trees were and zoomed in a little bit to find the sealed Abomination laying flaccid in an underground cavern.

And it was awake.

But of course Eridel knew that, he sealed its powers and mobility, not its consciousness. But yes, the Abomination’s presence was freely pervading a large expanse of land, prompting unknown changes that Eridel had no clue about.

‘Wow...’ Eridel thought as he gazed at the Abomination with a hint of awe.

Eridel backed up his point of focus and found his attention on the Forest of Death, or rather, the Forest filled with the Trees of Death.
