Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer

Chapter 823: Paradise of the sky island



Some were even unbelievable, or mind blowing, or just outright sparkling… but, the one and only thing that was more interesting than anything else, the reason that gave birth to the unique phenomenon all over the island, the thing situated at the very centre of this place, was the reason I wanted to come here the most.

-Swiiiiiiiiish…

There were winds blowing in this place because of the presence of the various wind sprits, and they were pretty much also here for the same reason me.

"That\'s…"

"It\'s not supposed to be here, is it?"

"Nothing is supposed to happen and it still does, friend. There are things in this world that just does not make any sense at all and still, they do exist."

In front of our eyes was a lake… and yes, we were still inside a cave.

"Gorgeous…"

"Look at all these creatures."

"Pretty…"

They were mesmerised. They were gasping, and there was not a single one of them that was not amazed by the scene in front of their eyes.

"In my three years here as a student, I had not thought there would be a place like this one on this island."

"It\'s a given since no one is supposed to know about the existence of something so special, Cradle."

President Zodiac knew very well what the thing in the center of this place was. He had seen one such thing… one such being before if I\'m not wrong, so he knew just how important it was.

"This is ineffable…"

Tia didn\'t have any words left to explain what she was feeling or what she was seeing either. It was just too amazing to her and to the other friends we had with us.

\'There was a lake here, hidden in this cave that no one knew the actual location of.

There was a clear sky right above our heads as there was no ceiling to this place, and in the water of the cave was a small island upon which a single flower had bloomed to its fullest size.\'

A flower that looked nothing like what we understand as \'flower\'.

"Woh… look at that. Isn\'t that a Tiger?"

"Not just that, look in the water of that lake… I think I just saw a crocodile!"

"This place… what exactly is this place?"

The entire cave was filled with unique illumination stones of various colors that lit up the entire cave.

The water of the lake was full of creatures and the area before us as well, the vast land that we were standing on was filled with creatures of all kinds and types.

\'Creatures that one can find on the mountains, creatures that one could find in the forest, creatures that were rare, and creatures that people didn\'t even know still existed in this day and age.\'

This place was filled with all kinds of life, even in terms of green life.

"Is… is this place safe? Won\'t they… won\'t they hurt us?"

"No."

This was a paradise for the creatures as well.

In fact, it was one of the three eternal ancient paradise-like places of the island of magic\'s wealth.

One of the only three places that was safe to all that stepped foot on them. A place that was equal to all, a place that did not discriminate between kind or type and provided shelter to all lives that arrived here.

"This is one of the safest places on the island of magic\'s wealth aside from the special area under our academy, and the sanctuary of fungi."

There were more special places on this floating island, but if one wanted to compare some place with the paradise mentioned in the tales, these places would be the best fit for that kind of description.

It was just that much attractive…

"This is a safe place."

In the centre of the island located in the middle of the lake, existed a flower that was so special there only existed a handful of them in this entire world… There were only four known places in this world where this specific flower was located.

\'And not many knew about this flower either unless they had taken a course that taught specifically about the rare creatures, plant life, and living organisms of smaller scales.\'

Even among us, there were only six people that knew about what we were seeing right now… and Deleon became the one to enlighten the rest of the friends here due to his unexpected interest in the scene before him.

"Unilateral Spirit Realm Elemental Passage or USREP… that was the name the first discoverer of this plant gave it.

However, people who are interested in the spirits, or energy beasts, or the special life forms of the worlds all call it by a different name."

He was not only interested in what he was seeing, since this was a special place filled with all kinds of special things and creatures, he could alredy see a few special slimes that had caught even his attention.

\'He wanted to run off to them and start cutting them down-… ahem.\'

He was an enthusiastic researcher of the slimes so he did various experiments on them, and he was going to do the same with some of the other creatures present here as well that he could see had a symbiotic relationship with the other creatures.

\'He was excited, but just as much as him, Newtine, Miss Mia, and Nova also had stars in their eyes.\'

The pink haired boy, the bitter opponent that always hinders Rein in their energy best research class, was one of the most knowledgeable people present among us.

And his knowledge about the energy beasts was especially vast.

\'But that much was expected from someone whose family was practically the mainstream researchers of the energy beasts in this world.\'

His father was the one of the leading energy beast researchers, his mother was a ruler in the east, his great grandfather had been one of the pioneers of the energy beast research field of the modern times, and his late grandfather had given most of his life in the research of the plant life of this world.

He was no ordinary person now that I knew about him, but since his identity as the Hair to one of the greatest empires of this world was hidden, there was no need to blow off his little secret.

\'Only Rein and Zoe knew about him, but that much was only natural.\'

The two of them know most that I know, Zoe actually knows everything that I do since we are practically connected.

"Elemental helix…"

His grandfather was also the first person that discovered this flower in a deep cave of a volcano that had once brought destruction upon the entire Northwestern peninsula.

"The special flower that\'s said to be immortal. The gateway to the world of spirts that\'s only opened for the creatures of the spirit kind, the crystal flower of Original past… it\'s a legend.

A legacy left behind by the first predecessors.

Something I didn\'t expect to see in my lifetime."

"And in its bloomed state, on top of that."

The places where these flowers were located were restricted heavily by not the nations that those lands fell under but by a specific community of special individuals chosen by the votes of all major powers of this world in a Grand conference.

"This is more than a paradise, Captain Titania."

She was a fairy so she was undoubtedly going to go and see how this place actually looked beyond the physical realm but not everyone else had that privilege.

That\'s why all those who understood the significance of this place, this flower, was looking at her enviously.

"Haaaa… I think that\'s true."

And Tia also understood just how important this place was after listening to all of them.

"Huuu…"

An Elemental Helix.

Something even we did not have in the tower garden filled with plants even more rare than this one.

\'That\'s why I wanted this one there.\'

What motivated me to come all the way here with all these people, was also perhaps this very plant and desire to have it for myself.

But, since I obviously wasn\'t crazy enough to uproot this entire thing and take it with me with all these creatures and all those spirits filling up this place, I wanted to politely ask for some seeds of this special life.

And that wasn\'t going to be too easy…

\'Thankfully, we don\'t need it right away.\'

Obtaining these precious seeds that this unique flower only produced once in its entire thousands of years of lifespan would be difficult since I would have to convince the very flower that I was seeing right now that I was worthy of it.

\'It was a unique lifeform, even though it looked like a weird spiral of crystals.\'

It should almost be as intelligent as the ancient tree located in our academy garden, and as it was a gateway for the spirits, it had complete support from the spirit world as well.

It did not have any powers or skills of its own since it was only a flower at the end of the day, but it possessed its own intelligence.

And that simple fact made it more powerful than most other intelligent plants present in this vast world.

"So, everyone… why don\'t we all go and have fun by ourselves?

I\'m pretty sure there are various things you all want to do now that we have reached the paradise and there\'s still a long while left for the dinner time."

Everyone had something that they wanted to do here.

Some wanted to go and check the kind of plants this place had. Some wanted to go and see the lake. Some wanted to swim over to the island somehow and see the special flower made entirely of jade green crystals, a testament to its wind elemental origin, while some just wanted to sit down by the lake and play with the pretty and interesting creatures.

I also had some things that I wanted to do now that we were here.

"We have quite a while in this place, so I\'ll tell you all a fun story while we have dinner.

You should go and have fun while you still have time."

I gave them a little smile, and that much was enough for them to understand what I wanted to convey.

"You\'re still hiding something, aren\'t you? Bastard?"

Especially since even Cradle was present here, there was no way they wouldn\'t catch my still smiling expression…

\'One last thing was still left, and no, it wasn\'t the astral realm.\'

That was going to be limited to only a few of us.

But still… I had hurried them to reach this place before night.

There was a reason behind that… a reason they were soon going find out about.
