章 692: 692. Picking Dormant Spirits

Gil recalled that the eves had a much more positive ideology for the battle spirits, "The elves seemed to think that they weren't all that bad though? Why might that be?" He wanted to know and felt that if he didn't ask now that he would never have a safe chance to ask again. 

"They acted as guardians. I'm sure there are some still around guarding a mana source or a mana dense area. They took territory like an animal and some could be reasoned with. But many ceaselessly fought. I can remember a spirit cedar being frozen and shattered by a water elemental battle spirit just because its roots grew close to the pond it resided in." 

"So they weren't always the nicest. But they could be. It just sounded like the elves might be missing some information now." Gil felt bad that the elves were idolizing a kind of spirit that was harmful. "I wonder why the other spirits there don't tell them?" Gil was very confused by this.
