Azeroth Monster Manual

#138 - Resonance and Nature's Son

It was deep autumn, but Quel'Thalas, shrouded in its protective barriers, was as beautiful as a fairytale world.

Walking on a path in Eversong Woods, watching the magical maple forest, as vibrant as blood, and the clear river flowing gently, the young man couldn't help but reveal a warm smile.

Four years had passed since he left Quel'Thalas, and the young man had also celebrated his seventeenth birthday in this deep autumn since coming to this world.

Although, to the long-lived Quel'dorei, Aier's age was no different from that of an elven child, he understood that he did not have the privilege to be capricious.

As a traveler from another world, he deeply knew the cruelty of the future.

For the sake of this magnificent world, for the companions with whom he had established deep friendships, and for the family whose blood ran thicker than water, he constantly reminded himself that his time was running out…

In every difficult and exhausting late night, when the young man wearily got up from his workbench wanting to rest, the tragic memories of the future would flood his mind, prompting him to work tirelessly, striving to have the power to change everything.

Everyone only saw the bright and beautiful side of Aier Salona. Every elf and human who learned of the young man's deeds would sincerely praise the young man's amazing talent and Belovar's effective teaching.

But what they didn't know was how terrifying a time traveler who was both more talented than them and worked harder than them could be.

Azeroth was a beautiful and magical world, but for more than ten years, the young man had not stopped to take a look at this world that he had once dreamed of.

Closing his eyes, feeling the breeze gently caressing his cheeks, the young man forgot his mission, forgot the complex and volatile situation in the Hinterlands, and forgot the human high-ranking officials who harbored their own agendas.

Even… he forgot his name, his surname. The one standing here was just a traveler who loved life and loved nature.

Just as the young man was enjoying this rare moment of leisure, the magical maple trees beside him began to sway violently. The young man opened his eyes and looked at the maple forest in front of him with some surprise. To his astonishment, all the maple trees began to shake.

These beautiful maple trees were like elves dancing elegant dances. Aier could clearly feel waves of joyful emotions.

“It's the forest…”

Lightly sniffing the fresh scent in the air, the light in the young man's eyes flickered. He seemed to hear the heart's voice of those maple trees.

Just as the young man was thinking, the entire maple forest stopped shaking, but in the next second, something incredible happened.

First, a wisp of almost invisible light green particles floated out of the forest, and then, as if by magic, the original fiery red maple forest instantly turned into a sea of green, with tens of thousands of green particles converging into one piece.

Aier stared blankly at everything in front of him, unable to help but be a little dazed.

He had never seen such a dreamlike scene before, but everything that happened next completely subverted his understanding.

All the green particles connected into a line and flew towards the young man's direction. The young man was like standing by the sea, and what greeted him was a magnificent expanse of blue waves.

“Swish…”

At this time, the young man was like a baby immersed in amniotic fluid, warm and comfortable. As soon as those emerald green energies touched his body, they instantly melted like spring snow.

After a long time, feeling the abundant power of nature in his body, Aier understood in his heart.

“Thank you for the gift of nature.”

Walking to the center of the maple forest, the young man bowed slightly, his heart peaceful.

After a gust of breeze, the maple forest seemed to understand the young man's words, and every tree was shaking its branches.

After bowing again, the young man walked out of the maple forest.

He originally wanted to relax his mood and let his tired heart rest, but what he didn't expect was that this trip actually had unexpected surprises.

【Resonance】: You are a child of nature. Use your heart to feel the breath of nature. Treat them kindly, and they will also reward you.

This was the new skill he had comprehended. Aier guessed that this new skill was likely because he had unintentionally formed a resonance with the magic maple tree.

Those spirits of nature felt his state of mind, so they selflessly contributed their own strength.

Although the power of nature had not fully recovered, Aier was very happy because he had gained the approval of the spirits of nature.

This feeling was very subtle, like having many, many more friends invisibly. These 'new friends' were very warm and hospitable, and even willing to contribute their own strength to him.

Although this power was not much to the young man, the sentiment really moved him.

“Mentor!”

“Lord Aier!”

Just as the young man was still immersed in the shock just now, several voices mixed with strong emotions sounded in his ears.

Belovar hugged Aier tightly, and the young man's body stiffened for a moment, then returned to its original state.

The Speaker was crying his heart out like a child. He was the only relative, the only grandson, he had in this world. Feeling the wet shoulders, Aier couldn't help but feel a little warm in his heart.

Like coaxing a child, Aier gently stroked his grandfather's back, whispering something in Belovar's ear.

Hermit and Kael'thas wanted to rush up, but when they saw Belovar's staggering steps and hunched figure, the two looked at each other and tacitly slowed down their pace.

After a long time, Belovar embarrassedly wiped away his tears. Meeting Anasterian's teasing gaze, the Speaker fled, covering his face.

Looking at Hermit and Kael'thas, who were excited but pretended to be calm, Aier couldn't help but find it a little funny.

The young man stepped forward and gently hugged Kael'thas and Hermit. The two men's bodies trembled a little, and the two who had not cried for so many days could not help but shed tears.

Walking to Romans, Aier gave him a big hug in the Archmage's somewhat panicked and unbelievable gaze.

Then it was Calain, Anselem, and Elan. Aier hugged his companions and best friends one by one.

Looking at the touching scene in front of him, Anasterian's eyes flickered with a strange emotion. While the Sun King was stunned, the young man had already come to him.

“Long time no see, Your Majesty.”

Ignoring the horrified and shocked gazes of the elves around him, the young man also gave the Sun King a hug.

The originally harmonious scene suddenly quieted down, and the guards and high-ranking officials who came with Anasterian all looked at the scene in front of them in disbelief.

Unexpectedly, the Sun King did not get angry. Anasterian only paused for a moment before smiling and patting the young man's back, and said softly:

“Welcome home.”

After seeing this scene, the high-ranking officials suddenly realized that this young man named Aier Salona had become an existence they needed to look up to…
