Chương 61: Kaksan

"Master!" Meralda's voice carried a note of urgency as she swooped gracefully towards me.

"Did you fix it?" I inquired, my gaze narrowing in concern.

Meralda nodded, her expression a mixture of relief and concern. "Yes, but it's only temporary. Even a high-ranking spirit like me can't sustain a barrier as vast as this for an extended period."

I studied the immense, seemingly invisible barrier encircling the entirety of Faerielight. 

This natural barrier had been cast by the World Tree, to safeguard its elven inhabitants and itself from any potential threats or invaders. 

For countless millennia, it had held strong and impenetrable. However, this was the first time that an incursion had occurred, thanks to Kaksan's potent miasma.

"Good job" 

It seems my compliment got to her, as her cheeks faintly tinged with a blush as she averted her gaze.
