“Relax men, they’re part of the empire,” said Slime as he tries to relax the royal guards of the Potterland kingdom.

Slime approach one of the griffins with his right hand and the griffin docilely bowed its head as it let Slime pat its head. Looking at the scene made Edrich and his royal guards got their mouth wide agape.

“A-As expected of the Tarot empire… To be able to tame such a mighty magic beast…” Edrich the new and young king of the Potterland kingdom muttered in awe.

“Don’t be too surprised just by looking at a friendly griffin, young king. As I am tasked too, I’ll be showing you more great things about the Tarot empire. Now, let’s go,” said Slime as he hops above one of the griffins.

“R-Ride the griffin…?” Muttered Edrich as he’s half excited and half scared.

“H-How could you ride on it before I do, Lexus!?” Edrich commented towards his most trusted friend, the captain of the Potterland kingdom’s royal guards.

“E-Eh? F-Forgive me, your majesty… I got too excited…” (Lexus)

After gulping once, Edrich mustered up his courage and hop towards the griffin. The sensation of the smooth feathers of the mighty magic beast beneath him is addicting. The feeling of satisfaction of riding such a mighty beast filled Edrich and Lexus.

“Well now, let’s go then,” Following Slime’s words, the griffins flapped their huge wings, sending strong winds towards the surroundings.

“Y-Your majesty…” (The Royal Guards)

“Well, please take care of the kingdom while I’m away, okay?” (Edrich)

“I’ll be borrowing your king for a while, we’ll be back before the sunsets. Well, have a good day, men,” said Slime as the griffins start to fly before dashing towards Tarot at a great speed.

The griffins flew above the skies until they’re not visible to be seen from the surface. Since the young king is already at the sword saint rank, while the captain of the royal guards has already entered the sword god rank realm, the strong winds don’t really bother them.

Rather than bothering them, the first experience of flying excites them. Slime couldn’t help but smile as he saw the face of Potterland’s new king and the captain of the Potterland kingdom’s royal guards filled with smiles.

Slime requested for only three griffins, one for him, one for the Potterland’s king, and one for the one he trusted the most. It’ll be best if there are only a few people that attend the meeting between these two countries. 

The griffins flew at their highest speed, reaching halfway towards the magical forest of Everdeen in just two hours. Slime didn’t need to command the griffin because the griffin he’s riding has its thoughts linked with him.

The griffin is one of Oz’s clones too, after all.

*Griffin’s Cry*

The Griffin Oz suddenly let out a huge cry.

“W-What happened?” Asked Edrich.

“It’s fine, just wait and see,” (Slime)

They entered a sea of clouds for a while, blocking their view. But suddenly Edrich and Lexus sensed several presences approaching them, there are dozens of them.

Edrich and Lexus immediately ready their swords.

“Stop it, they’re Tarot’s aerial guards,” (Slime)

(Aerial guards?) (Lexus)

Several minutes after that, they eventually left the area that filled with clouds that had been blocking their views. Lexus and Edrich could finally see all kinds of flying creatures surrounding them, while each of them carries a full-armored elf above them.

“Greetings, my lord. I am the captain of the 3rd squad of the aerial guards, Sergeant Elvan Gransinkel. We’ve been informed that your highness will be coming, we’ll be escorting you until you reached the imperial city,” said the one wearing a gold armor respectfully towards Slime.

“Understood, we’ll be in your care, Sergeant,” (Slime)

“Yes, my lord!” Elvan answered enthusiastically.

Edrich and Lexus realize that every elf holds a bow as their secondary weapon, while each of them holds a different type of primary weapon.

Their type of rides must match their primary weapon. Those who became a close-range aerial fighter used a powerful ride, while those who focused as archers and mages ride an agile one.

The squad has 17 men, consisting of 6 Archers, 6 mages, and 5 melee fighters. As magic beasts and demihumans have a different type of mana cultivation from humans, Edrich and Lexus couldn’t really guess what their cultivation rank is.

But one thing they know is all of them emitted the vibe of seasoned soldiers.

(From their mana aura, they’re at least at the [Count] rank, but it looks like their battle skills could easily on par with a [Duke] ranked magic beast, or similar to Sword Saint ranked warrior… And this is just one ordinary guard squad…) (Lexus)

“We’ll be entering the Elvenheim kingdom soon, my lord,” Said the Sergeant.

“Let’s slow our pace a little,” (Slime)

Following Slime’s orders, the griffins and the elven aerial guards slow their pace. Edrich and Lexus who heard the conversation between them couldn’t help but be confused.

“Where is the kingdom?” (Edrich)

There are no kingdoms or even a building they could see, only the wilderness. But right when Edrich about to ask Slime, he suddenly felt a sensation of hitting a bubble or a foam all across his body. The feeling is rather pleasant, but he could feel that it’s made from a dense amount of mana.

Edrich shifted his gaze towards Lexus, and it seems that he felt the same thing. But as he observes Lexus a little bit longer, he saw that Lexus is making a strange expression.

It’s as if he’s surprised or amazed by something as his mouth is widely opened.

Erich followed Lexus’s gaze, only to make the same expression as Lexus did.

“I-Impossible…” Erich muttered under his breath as his mouth got wide open just like Lexus.

“Welcome to the elven kingdom of the Tarot empire, Elvenheim,” (Slime)

Erich and Lexus got stupified by how advanced and magical the elven kingdom is. Every city of the kingdom is surrounded by huge and mighty walls loaded with canons and protected by huge guardian ent that replaces the walls pillars. Guards stationed at the walls and those who at their patrol shift work seriously according to their job.

Unlike the usual elven kingdom, the Elvenheim kingdom of the Tarot empire isn’t made by trees alone. there are several buildings, but all of them are built above a tree, while the magic tower of the elven kingdom is a huge iron tree.

Every tree is connected, the branches are constructed into some small and big bridges that are neatly connected to other trees. There is no one walking on the ground, except for the farmers, the ranchers, and their livestock since the plants that they farm and served as the livestock food could only grow nutritiously when is planted on the ground.

The lords of the kingdom live at the huge trees, while the castle of the Elvenheim kingdom stands tall as the biggest tree that made from various type of magical trees. One of the many special traits of the Elvenheim kingdom is that the citizens lived together with their houses. Their house could clean themselves, do their housework, and even protect themselves since their house could be considered as their familiar too.

The royal capital of the Elvenheim kingdom is even more glamorous and beautiful, making Erich feel that his royal capital pales greatly in comparison.

“The walls of the Elvenheim kingdom, whether it’s the city walls or the royal capital’s walls, they don’t serve to protect from ground attacks alone. Since the structure of the kingdom’s buildings grew far above the ground, it made the buildings that stand above to be too vulnerable and exposed. That’s why all of the walls are equipped with a system that will make the walls unleash a tall barrier above the walls, protecting the skies of the kingdom, and since the Tarot empire itself is covered by dozens of layers of barriers, one of it could sense ill intent, so it’ll be best if you don’t do anything bad,” Slime warned Edrich and Lexus.

“I-I’ll keep that in mind…” Answered Edrich.

“Then let’s continue, that’s our destination,” Slime pointed at the gigantic tree, the divine tree.

“The divine tree, Yggdrasil…” (Lexus)

“Yes. It’s the proud asset of the Tarot empire, and one of the biggest sources of our defense and structural system. Now let’s go, we can continue sightseeing after we finished the meeting with the Tarot’s emperor,” (Slime)
