However, I didn't think too much about it. I first teleported Jean to a random place far away from Wendy, then activated my perception to teleport back to the West Wind Knights.
"Jean, have a good rest. You are the backbone of our knights. I'm not only advising you as an Honorary Knight, but also as a friend. Don't work too hard. Everyone in the knight regiment is still here.”
"You should rest as soon as possible." Jean nodded.”
"Yes."
After another space warp, I returned to Windy Grounds and replenished my energy with the Sword of Hope.
If the wishing well was the source of power that provided me with hope, then this huge ancient tree was the source that provided me with basic energy.
And unlike the wishing well, the ancient tree's energy was extremely strong. In my world, such a powerful lifeform would definitely transform into a demon. Even if they were demonized, they would definitely be extremely powerful demons.
However, he did not know why this ancient tree was still in its original form. Perhaps there was no relevant transformation rule in the continent of Tivat?
All sorts of thoughts ran through his mind, but in the end, he could only sigh. He casually found a comfortable place to lie down and spent the night absorbing the life force from the ancient tree…
The next day-
"Yo, good morning, Shengyun. How did you sleep?" Wendy greeted me with a smile.
It seemed that he was also receiving treatment from the ancient tree. Had he not fully recovered yet?
"Good morning, Wendy. Aren't you at Dawn Winery in Diluck?”I asked Wendy about her situation.
However, Wendy's smiling face suddenly drooped."Master Diluck didn't welcome me and even said something like 'I won't let a drunkard enter my wine cellar. This is a sign of distrust! How could I, Wendy, steal his wine!”
Wendy said confidently, but in the next second, the saliva that unconsciously appeared at the corner of his mouth betrayed him." But I really want to try Master Diluck's dandelion wine. It's a high-class wine…"
So, you were still chased out…
I was really confused as to why I knew such a drunkard."Then why didn't you return to Mond City?”
"Why should I go back? I don't have money." Wendy said matter-of-factly," I wanted to ask you to send me off, but you left with Guild Leader Qin. I had no choice but to return to my favorite place where the wind rose to prepare for the night.”
Then, Wendy sat down beside me."I really didn't expect to meet you here. Do you like it here too?"
"Yes, I like it very much." I said straightforwardly.
This ancient tree was constantly overflowing with life force, filling up my empty body that was unable to directly absorb this world.
Moreover, there was always a sense of tranquility under this ancient tree. It made me feel like I didn't want to think about anything and just relaxed my body.
"As expected, I knew it." Wendy's tone was as expected." You know what? This used to be the place where the great hero, Vanessa, liked to stay.”
"Vanessa?" I asked curiously. This was the first time I had heard of this name.
"He was the first Liontooth Knight and the founder of the West Wind Knights. She overthrew Old Mond, which was ruled by the three nobles, and established the current free city-state.”
"It's said that she finally set foot on Sky Island and became a god. This ancient tree was planted by Vanessa herself. After a thousand years, the sapling had grown into an ancient tree.”
Really? I don't study much. Don't lie to me! How could it grow so big in a thousand years? Unless it had a special energy source!
This was indeed unbelievable to me, because in my perception, the life force of this ancient tree was even stronger than Wendy's own energy, and it was more than twice as strong!
Although Wendy was injured, even if he was at his peak, he might not be able to compare to the ancient tree. Wendy was Babatos, and Babatos was the Wind God!
In Mond, everyone knew that Babatos was a powerful Wind God who had lived for thousands of years. How could he be defeated by an ancient tree that had been planted for thousands of years?
It's not that I don't believe it, but it's just too unbelievable…
Moreover, this tree was really huge. Its crown was almost the size of the entire Mond City. Judging from the life force it was constantly emitting, it should have done this a long time ago.
It had been overflowing with life force for so many years, yet its body was still so huge…
"Oh right, did you say Sky Island?" I suddenly noticed Wendy's words. Then, I pointed at the floating island in the sky." Are you talking about that?”
Seeing Wendy nod, I said in a relaxed manner,"If you miss your old friends, you can fly up and take a look. After all, aren't you the Wind God? This is a small matter to you, right?"
Wendy did not answer when she heard this. Instead, she fell silent. There was struggle and impulse on his face, but there was no joy of reuniting with his friend.
I could even see a faint tear drop at the corner of his eye, but that tear was carried away by the wind and disappeared in an instant. I'm not even sure if I'm seeing things.
The wind in the air became heavy, making me feel waves of oppression.
So he could cry and be sad too?
" I'm sorry, I didn't expect…" I apologized.
"It's fine. Let's go. If they arrived too late, everyone would have to wait for a long time.”Wendy changed the topic. He was usually very eloquent, but now his technique of changing the topic had become very poor.
However, I didn't say anything. I waved my hand, and the Sword of Hope, which had been stuck in the ground and absorbing energy, flew into my Portable Space. The space warp was activated, and he brought Wendy to the Star Picking Cliff.
Since I don't have any perception to lock onto it, I can only estimate the approximate location.
Fortunately, the deviation from this jump isn't too great. The peak of Star Picking Cliff is right in front of us.
The sun had just risen, casting thousands of golden rays through the clouds. Under this light, the green grass with the smell of soil drifted into my nose.
The heaviness of the wind had disappeared. It was a fresh wind with vitality.
"It seems that we are the first to arrive.”I smiled at Wendy.
The haze on Wendy's face disappeared, and her smile became pure."Heroes are always so similar. Your stories will definitely be passed down through the ages.”
Wendy must have been the one who told Winnie's story. Perhaps it was Wendy who had accompanied Vanessa to overthrow Old Mond.
I smiled and extended my hand to Wendy.""Then, I hope that when you sing our story in the future, don't forget to add a bard named Wendy. Without him, the stories of the heroes seemed to have become the same.”
"Definitely!" Wendy took my outstretched hand.
I exerted strength in my arm and pulled him up.
At this moment, the sun shone down, illuminating the two of us.
