“Is this related to the descendants of the Tree Elves?”
“Yes.”
Uncle said, “And the relationship is extraordinarily significant.”
Hearing this, Bailuo suddenly thought of something, “Speaking of which, Uncle.”
“We, the people of Yatun, are also descendants of the Miracle Race, right?”
“Ah, that’s correct.”
Uncle nodded, knowing what Bailuo wanted to ask and said directly, “However, Bailuo, you cannot awaken the Miracle Power of the people of Yatun now.”
“Why not?”
“It’s because of what I just said.”
Uncle explained, “For the Miracle Descendants to have the chance of awakening the Miracle Race’s powers, it hinges on the entire world having only one place left where the people of Yatun exist.”
This ‘one place’ actually refers to a collective meaning.
That is, Bailuo, leading eighty people of Yatun, who recognize him as their clan leader; but if the people of Yatun split into three factions, that would form ‘three’ places.”
So, it’s not only about being the only place geographically but also about unity, forming a collective.
“The descendants of the Tree Elves must also abide by this condition.”
Uncle said, “In other words, as long as there exists another descendant of the Tree Elves outside this island, we can never awaken the Tree Elves’ Miracle Power.”
‘No wonder there is no information about the people of Yatun in the Black Leather Book.’
‘So that’s how it is.’
Bailuo understood and also knew why the people of Yatun were unable to awaken their power.
Fortunately for Bailuo, he had been in an unbeatable position from the start.
As long as Bailuo didn’t let the people of Yatun become extinct, he held a veto power in his hands.
If I can’t have it, neither can you.
Once the people of Yatun outside are gone, I, Bailuo, will surely revive the Yatun Force.
“In the future, when you encounter descendants of Yatun outside, try to bring them back,” Uncle said. “Sooner or later, the Yatun Clan will also return to the glory of the Miracle Race.”
“But this has nothing to do with you, Bailuo.”
Uncle said, “The Master of Miracles does not belong to any race. You’re actually no longer a part of the Yatun Clan.”
“Even if one day the Yatun Force awakens,” Uncle said, “Bailuo, you will not receive the Yatun Force; instead, it’s us who can be elevated as a whole.”
Bailuo: “Is that really the case?!”
“Because it does not match up.”
Uncle said, “How could the mere Yatun Force compare with the true Master of Miracles? The Master of Miracles is the most venerable, more so than any miracle.”
That’s why the Black Leather Book received the mission of the Tree Elves’ miracle because only on Yatun Island are the descendants of the Tree Elves still to be found.
‘So, the Black Leather Book has one more function.’
Bailuo thought to himself, ‘The appearance of Miracle Descendants in the Black Leather Book indicates that they exist only here in the entire world, prompting me that I can undertake the awakening mission.’
Miracle Descendants belong to a special category within miracles.
Their advantage is that as long as you’re not foolish, when you meet someone of Yatun or see a descendant of the Tree Elves, you can easily recognize them as Miracle Descendants.
But the problem is, what if you discover them? How can you be sure that this one in front of you, or this group of Miracle Descendants, is the last in the whole world?
You gather them, thinking of various ways to awaken them (different races have different conditions for awakening).
But five years, ten years, a hundred years go by and you still haven’t managed to obtain the Miracle Race.
Because you can’t guarantee they are the last!
That is the trouble with Miracle Descendants, even more complicated than regular miracles; it’s about ‘proving uniqueness’ and then finding the corresponding awakening method.
Only by combining both can you fulfill the conditions for the awakening of Miracle Descendants.
However, Miracle Descendants are not numerous and, in fact, quite rare; ordinary people might not even have heard of them, let alone encounter them.
Like the Tree Elves, Uncle is very unfamiliar with this race.
“Everyone, follow closely, head this way.”
The next day, Bailuo arrived at the camp of the Tree Elves’ descendants.
They were very obedient, had already prepared everything, and everyone was present without exception.
Clearly, the Tree Elves’ descendants truly chose to trust Bailuo, not dividing their people in order to ensure the smooth revival of the Miracle Power.
With this, Bailuo was very pleased, and his fondness for the Tree Elves’ descendants increased manifold.
“Lord, I thought we were going to the port. Why are we heading east?”
“Oh, it’s like this.”
Bailuo said, “My plan is to open up living spaces in the east, south, and central areas, which is to develop the interior of the island rather than the peripheral areas.”
“The harbor will definitely develop in the future, but we, People of Yatun, are not used to living by the seaside. You don’t like the ocean either, do you?”
“Indeed.”
The Tree Elves’ Descendants were grateful to Bailuo for considering their preferences; they indeed preferred forests and grasslands.
“So next, we need to clear the land over there, to cut down trees to build our homes.”
Bailuo asked, “Do you have any taboos regarding this?”
Bailuo was a person who respected other cultures; some habits could be accepted while differing, but some bad practices needed correction.
If the Tree Elves’ Descendants could not harm wood, naturally, Bailuo would not force them to do so. Fị𝒏dd 𝒏ew upd𝒂t𝒆s on n(o)v/e/l𝒃in(.)com
“Not at all.”
The one talking with Bailuo was Lu Anya, the chief of the Tree Elves’ Descendants. Grandfather Andrew was too old; he did not have the energy for it anymore.
“However, we prefer living in treehouses and aerial nests.”
A treehouse was made by hollowing out the center of an ancient tree; this allowed the preservation of the plant’s phloem and xylem so the ancient tree would not die, and they could establish homes.
As for aerial nests, they were dome-shaped huts built with wood atop large trees.
They were connected to each other with hanging bridges, giving a sense of an aerial courtyard.
“In that case, I will set up the Treant Race’s living area near the forests by the lakes.”
In the center of the island, there was a huge lake and several rivers stretched from high to low down to the sea. Added to that were numerous mountain springs and the island had plenty of rainfall, so the People of Yatun would not encounter drinking water shortages.
“There is a large forest here, near the central mountain and the entrance and exit of the Southeast Valley.”
“By choosing this place, everyone will be able to live in their preferred locations.”
“You…”
Lu Anya felt Bailuo’s kindness and benevolence. She sincerely thanked him, “Please let us do something for you too. We are skilled at planting, and if there are agricultural needs, our entire clan can join the effort.”
Yatun Island lacked adult men, whereas the Tree Elves’ Descendants had a relatively balanced male-to-female ratio.
Although there were still more children than adults, picking out 20 individuals was not an issue.
However, Bailuo did not need them for planting and husbandry; those tasks could be solved by Lilith with magic.
The issue with livestock was taken care of by the animals that had become magical creatures, which were far superior to the likes of ‘sheepdogs’ by many times over.
“Speaking of which, can you reproduce with humans?”
Bailuo naturally cared about his subjects; however, Lu Anya replied, “We cannot marry humans because, because we grow from trees.”
“Wait, sorry, I might not have heard that properly,” Bailuo felt he had misheard, “How do you come into being?”
“Grown from trees?!”
“Really?!”
Bailuo asked Sherri to stop, then looked around at the surrounding Tree Elves in shock: “Is that even possible?!”
“Eh, sorry, I didn’t mean to insult you.”
“Please don’t mind it.”
Lu Anya said, “To conceive offspring, two Tree Elves, a male and a female, need to extract their own Seeds of Life, then cultivate a third Seed of Life.”
“After that, with over a decade of nurturing and planting, the Seed of Life can grow into a large tree.”
“When the tree bears fruit, if there is one, it’s one child; if there are two, then two children are born.”
Continuing this thread, Lu Anya said, “Legend has it that the creator of the Tree Elves planted the Tree of Life, and dozens of elf fruits fell from one tree, giving birth to the first ancestors of the Tree Elves.”
Amazing!
That’s damn amazing!
Mom didn’t lie to us, kids really do pop out of fruits!
This goes to show, perhaps kids can also sprout from a pile of trash…
“Well, that really is, quite interesting.”
Bailuo chuckled wryly, but he also understood that the Tree Elves’ reproduction would have to be dependent on themselves in the future.
If he were anywhere else, upon hearing such words, Bailuo’s first reaction would be to ask the other person, ‘Were your mom and dad fighting when they told you this?’
But in the world of miracles, there truly was nothing too strange.
This was not just reproductive isolation; it was the difference between plants and animals!
Bailuo had always been concerned about population issues, and now, the problem seemed to be as far from being resolved as ever. It was indeed a heavy burden and a long road ahead.
