Third Person POV.
Somewhere on North.

...
As soon as those words were said, the man looked on calmly. "I cannot let that happen," he spoke as if he could slip from Jon's grasp.
"You're not in any position to do that, don't think you can escape from me," Jon said arrogantly. And, at that moment, something happened.
An explosion occurred right then, catching Jon and Brynden. "Jon!!" Ygritte shouted as the thick smoke enveloped them. Jon wasn't too worried, not sensing any danger, seeing it was just smoke.
He saw through his eyes, the living auras of the children of the forest approaching, trying to attack Jon, his wolves, and Ygritte. First, it was his wolves while in that limited vision, the wolves began to growl as they fought, letting out sounds of pain and sorrow as they disappeared.
Jon felt an aura approaching him, attempting to attack him with a dragon glass dagger. Jon, seeing this, simply spun his spear and slashed the creature's neck, which fell dead to the ground the next moment. 'You made your choice...' Jon thought as the creature fell dead.
He used some of his powers, and the smoke around quickly dissipated, showing the man still standing, looking closely at what happened.
"Jon," Ygritte murmured behind him, as his gaze went back, and there was a child of the forest putting a strange sword at Ygritte's neck.
"You cannot kill the three-eyed raven," the child of the forest said, threatening to cut Ygritte's neck. "Get out of here, now," she spoke, but her demands didn't make much sense.
Brynden just looked at Jon, who kept a closer watch than before, having eliminated a child of the forest. They were agile and powerful creatures; even without their magic, they greatly troubled the first men when they went to war, but fell easily with one move from Jon.
Jon sighed, and before the child of the forest could react, he raised his hand towards her, making her freeze. Seeing that there was no more movement from her body, she looked surprised but couldn't even question as she was covered with telekinesis.
"Well, enough of this nonsense. Let's end this," Jon said, making the child fly as he pulled her sword from her hand and brought it to him, looking at the sword closely. "If you are Brynden Rivers, then this is Dark Sister, the sword you lost on this side of the Wall, according to the history books I read in Winterfell." He said, looking at the sword as it spun in the air, "It's a beautiful sword," Jon couldn't help but comment, looking at the metal and feeling its magic in it. His gaze moved from the sword to the child as he threw her against the wall, making her fall unconscious like the other before entering the cave.
After that, he turned his attention to the man in the roots, who now looked with a certain fear. After all, he couldn't die there.
"Well, let's finish you off," Jon said, as he dropped the sword, making it fall to the ground, still holding his spear. He picked it up from the ground.
"No, you can't destroy me. I am the salvation of this world. You can't just end me. You will condemn the entire world. You will bring destruction to all this world," the man spoke in a still gloomy tone.
"Big words for a dead man," Jon simply said, preparing to launch the spear at the man in the roots. Some children of the forest ran from the corridors trying to prevent Jon from continuing his attack.
Seeing that his plan had failed, he exclaimed like a madman. "No, I will be king. I will rule the world, you will not stop me!" the three-eyed raven spoke, not wanting to believe it would be his end there. But before he could finish, the ice spear pierced his heart at that moment as he opened his eyes in surprise, looking at Jon and then at the weapon in his chest, trying to understand if that was really real.
"!!!!" The children of the forest screamed, seeing the man they were supposed to protect, was about to die at that moment.
Something started to happen at that moment, from his chest, as if the spear had some effect against the man in the roots, and he began to freeze from that point, spreading throughout his body, as he began to crack with a still incredulous look, as he broke apart.
Ygritte sighed finally, seeing that the man died while only the children stared in surprise at what remained of the three-eyed raven.
"It's not over yet." Jon suddenly spoke.
A three-eyed crow suddenly emerged from behind the roots and started to fly away, trying to escape from Jon. After all, it couldn't hide with Jon around, its only chance was to flee. It needed to go see its new vessel in Winterfell to take over its body, although it couldn't gain all the powers that way, it would survive. But as it was flying away, it was caught by a force, with Jon holding it with telekinesis. The children, seeing this, ran to confront Jon. He looked at those creatures and took a deep breath.
"FUS RO DAH!" He used a Thu'um despite being tired, and the whole area exploded at that moment, throwing everything back and breaking all the roots, and the ground opened up, throwing the children, with some even being crushed by the force. Ygritte tried to protect herself, covering her eyes with fright, as the whole tree trembled with the force.
"You think you'll escape like that?" Jon asked as the crow tried to free itself from the grip. Jon tightened his hand and saw the crow break apart, dying instantly.
His hand started to glow with a blue energy, and Jon began to absorb the crow's soul. "You can switch from animal to animal, so let's imprison it for now. It's a pity I don't have a soul stone, but I'll keep your soul for a while," Jon spoke, looking at the floating soul in his hand.
He placed the soul in a separate space where it was frozen for a while, as Jon would deal with this soul later, destroying it.
Ygritte was paralyzed the whole time, unable to react to everything that was happening, wondering what she could have done. After all, who was she compared to these beings? Jon dealt with everything so easily that it seemed like he was dealing with children. 'How strong is he?!' She thought, after all, even knowing almost nothing about Jon and the place he was in, she was sure that he could do much more than what he showed there.
Meanwhile, Jon saw the dust settling, with bodies of the children of the forest scattered around, some dead, others severely injured. He turned to Ygritte, looking at her from a distance with frightened eyes, not caring. "It's finally over, let's go outside." He said as she came out of her daze and nodded awkwardly as she walked ahead of Jon. He picked up the children of the forest with telekinesis and stored the ice spear along with Dark Sister, after all, only a fool would discard a Valyrian steel sword.
He exited with at least 8 bodies floating behind him. Ygritte remained silent and exited first, Jon followed soon after, "What have you done!" the child of the forest he had captured before shouted at him, now awake next to another still injured with fire.
"I did what I came to do, you shouldn't be so surprised. Besides, your sisters tried to kill me, I ended up killing some, you should have been smarter," Jon spoke as the bodies floated behind him, at least half of them lifeless.
"No..." The child of the forest cried.
"What will happen to us?" She spoke in defeat, with tears in her eyes, seeing that this being was impossible for them to deal with, never facing anything like this in their thousands of years.
Jon didn't answer her, picking her up in the air too and returned to Ygritte. "Let's just settle in while we wait for these children to wake up," he said, as he arranged the bodies in a space to prepare a fire with the tree's own roots.
He made a small camp under the roots, and they stayed there. Jon took a carcass from the dimensional space and prepared it to eat. Ygritte remained silent as the children of the forest continued to wake up one by one and cry for their sisters.
"Jon... don't you fear the gods?" Ygritte suddenly spoke, looking at the bodies that the children of the forest were seeing and lamenting.
"They're not my gods. And even if they were, I'd kill anyone who tries to do this to me, against the will of the gods or not, I find that very fair," Jon spoke, eating something after roasting it on the fire.
It was after a while that the child who had taken Ygritte hostage with Dark Sister woke up and looked at Jon cautiously. "What do you plan with us, you've already killed the three-eyed raven... this world is doomed. But why keep us alive?" She asked.
"What's your name?" Jon asked calmly.
"Leaf." She said. Jon realized she was the leader.
"I see... Leaf, maybe I won't kill all of you. And don't be so frightened," Jon said, "If I wanted to kill you, you'd already be dead." He saw how she was looking as if trying to distance herself from him as if he was a demon.
"You killed the three-eyed raven, why keep us alive!" she exclaimed again.
"Yes, I killed him. And yet the world hasn't ceased to exist," Jon said mockingly.
"But it will disappear, you don't understand what you've done!" She continued.
"If you're worried about the White Walkers... I'll destroy them myself, don't worry about that." Jon assured, a bit tired of dealing with creatures after that brainwashing they got from that crow.
"He was the salvation of this world!" Another awakened child exclaimed, and Jon already wanted to throw them all against the wall to shut them up.
"Salvation of this world? Because he could do something, or because you believed in that?" Jon replied still as he raised an eyebrow.
"..." The child didn't know what to say.
Jon sighed and looked at Leaf. "Anyway, I can let you live, and if you want, you can even see me destroy the White Walkers in the future." Jon began; he saw no reason to kill these forest children without a dialogue first. "I want you to take this woman to the Free Folk's camp safely," Jon said.
The children looked at Ygritte, who was surprised by this. "Wait?! What do you mean by that?" She asked.
"I'm going north, there's something there calling me," Jon said, feeling the connection coming from the north, stronger than those from the south.
"What do you plan to do there?" Ygritte couldn't help but ask.
"I don't know, but it will be much more dangerous than when we faced the crow. If the children take you back, it'll be better, you saw how things can get dangerous," Jon said, and Ygritte had to lower her head, after all, she was just a burden during the journey.
"What do you think? I'll spare all your sisters, and if you want to see me kill the White Walkers, you should wait for me at the camp while I return from the north," Jon said fearlessly, turning to the 6 forest children still alive while 4 others were dead.
Leaf looked at Jon and then at her sisters, looking at her with fear. "Okay, we'll do it," she said in the end. What could she do? They were the last of their kind and didn't expect to die like this, even if it meant making a request from that demon in favor of their lives.
"Great," Jon said and threw his food away as he got up and approached her.
"What are you doing?" Leaf asked a bit scared, seeing that Jon wasn't just there to remove the seals that imprisoned her.
"I'm ensuring you don't betray me, after all, you tried to kill me, and I killed many of you," Jon spoke rationally as his fingertip glowed and he began to write runes on Leaf's forehead.
She felt no pain, but could see that her mind began to become limited, this demon was making her unable to have any thoughts of betraying him, something she had never experienced in her life, also scared by this.
When Jon finished, he looked satisfied. "Don't be so scared, I'm just taking care of our contract," Jon said. "This isn't permanent, it will last about two weeks, but if you come to betray me after that, or your sisters. I won't hesitate to eliminate all of you, so either live your life going away or stay with me, but don't betray me," Jon continued, "And you know, I'm not afraid to offend the gods with this." He concluded.
With that, the children began to get loose as they started to tend to their wounds from the impact of his Thu'um in the cave or burns from his atronachs, but nodded, not being hostile towards Jon, as he began to prepare to head north.
