The Inheritance Of The Supreme Immortals

Chapter 93 - 93: Adriana's Frustration - 1

"If I'm not being rude, could you state the reason for your appearance in my territory?" Adriana went straight to the point.

The dryads didn't show any reactions, not even a blink of their eyebrows. It was as if they were made of stone or wood.

After a few seconds passed following Adriana's question about their reason for the visit, Elma spoke up, "A few weeks ago, our Gracious Queen made a prediction about the possible awakening of him."

Elma, the dryad, paused for a few seconds, not sure why she suddenly stopped talking.

Adriana and the others didn't disturb her, letting her take her time.

"I don't know if you are aware of it, but I will say it regardless. Compared to the male spirits, the female spirits have high spiritual awareness... The following days after our Illustrious Queen's deduction, we female spirits began to sense a spiritual familiarity... something similar to what we sense from our Queen...

like it was waiting for the right moment to rise through the sky, though we couldn't discern its origin," Elma said, frequently pausing between sentences before falling silent completely.

'What the hell is she talking about? Who is this person she keeps mentioning?' Helena and the other women wondered about the same thing, especially curious about the Queen and the other person Elma keeps mentioning.

But for some reason, Lorraine had a strange thought that the person Elma keeps mentioning was Sam. 'They couldn't possibly be here for him, right? He never even had any interaction with the spirit race... Why am I even considering this a possibility? I must be overthinking it.'

Elma continued, "A couple of days ago, our Majesty made a deduction that he is... in fact, residing on the Azure Dragon Continent, in the Hailstorm Clan, to be precise."

"...I'm sorry, but I can't quite understand what you are trying to say?" Adriana asked, confused.

She didn't understand who she was talking about. Who is this person she is referring to? And who the hell is this queen? Since when did the Spirit Race elect a queen?

As far as she was aware, there were no queens in the Spirit Races.

Unlike other races, such as Dragons or Qilins, the Spirit Races hadn't established any constitutional systems like a monarchy or rule by a congregation of clans.

They followed anarchy.

Unlike supernatural beings, Spirits found no need, or perhaps it was not in their nature, to form functioning societies, relationships, or the need to create communities in their lives.

Make no mistake; dryads aren't the only kind of spirits that exist.

There are also other races that are part of the spirits, like sirens, fairies, banshees.

There is also a race called Nine-Colored Heavenly Butterflies, which could be considered half spirits, but they are still spirits.

With many diverse races on a continent, one might expect there to be a system of ruling or some form of community for society to function, but it just wasn't the case.

Except for the Nine-Colored Butterflies, who seemed to have an isolated community within the continent, others were literally like tribes, just living alongside nature.

...If there were no queen, which queen is Elma referring to?

Adriana wanted to ask this question, but as she thought about it more, the spirits were quiet and reserved.

Here they were, speaking to them on their own accord, revealing something sensitive as they

However, it seems the spirits didn't like that.

'Well, it's no surprise considering that the spirits are said to be born from the roots of the World Tree herself,' she remembered that long ago, the spirits used to address the World Tree as their mother, not queen, but it seems the spirits have changed the way they address their Great Mother.

"...Now, can you tell us about this mysterious person you came in search of? The person that the Great World Mother sent spirits to find?" Adriana asked.

Now she understood who the queen was, but who was this mysterious person that the Heavenly Dao herself went through the trouble to send spirits to search for?

"Mysterious is not the word I would use to describe this person, for he is above all living beings—an existence out of anyone's imagination... I don't deserve to utter his name," Elma's eyes revealed fanaticism, only intensifying others' curiosity about the identity of that person.

"We want to know where his eminence is... It would be more helpful if you would just bring us to his special presence," Elma said, this time her stone-cold face revealing a serious expression.

'For God's sake, what the heck is wrong with this Dryad? She's expecting us to bring her to someone, but she won't tell us who this person is?' Adriana's mind almost exploded with frustration.

As the leader of a clan, she had never had a more annoying conversation with anyone before in her life.

"How do you expect me to find a person without any knowledge about this person's identity? At least give us a name," Adriana asked with a helpless expression.

Elma and the ever-so-quiet Twig just maintained stern, motionless expressions, not uttering a word.

Even Duncan Hailstorm, who was usually aloof, couldn't handle the way the Dryads led the conversation. 'Would it kill them to just answer a single question?'
