In the end, Josiah still underestimated the Duke Of Black Dragon's strength. It gently tugged at the corner of Josiah's clothes, and Josiah had no choice but to bend down.
By the time that Shiratori flapped its wings, it was already too late. The Duke Of Black Dragon's hands had already grabbed Shiratori at a speed that the naked eye could not capture.
When Josiah could not pull that Shiratori back in time, in the blink of an eye … The Duke Of Black Dragon had shoved half of Shiratori's body into his mouth.
Its cheeks instantly swelled up, and Josiah could only see Shiratori's legs flailing in the air, and its wings were also flailing as it struggled.
A large pile of feathers fell from its wings.
"The Holy Tree!"
The three Elf Elders were instantly scared silly at this moment. Elder En Ya was the closest to the Duke Of Black Dragon. She wanted to go forward and rescue that Shiratori from the Duke Of Black Dragon's mouth, but everything had already been decided.
The Duke Of Black Dragon bit down on his sharp teeth. All Josiah could hear was the sound of something shattering. The lower half of Shiratori's flailing body fell into the Duke Of Black Dragon's hands.
This half of the body did not bleed. Instead, some spots of starlight spread out from the irregular cross-section of the body.
"Lord Ridley, this is the Holy Tree that you once guarded."
Elder En Ya could not offend the guardian of the Holy Tree. At this moment, she could only think of dissuading the Duke Of Black Dragon.
The Duke Of Black Dragon ignored Elder En Ya. His cheeks were still bulging as he continued to chew.
Josiah heard the sound of his chewing. It sounded like he was chewing on glass. This especially crisp chewing sound lasted for two seconds before he swallowed the thing in his mouth.
"Ridley …"
Before the other High Elf elder could say anything, the Duke Of Black Dragon put the remaining half of Shiratori into his mouth.
Eating this Shiratori gave Josiah the feeling of eating a soft potato. Shiratori's body was very soft, and it looked unexpectedly … appetizing?
However, when he chewed in his mouth, there was a clear crunching sound.
After the Duke Of Black Dragon finished Shiratori's wings, he began to chew on the rest of her body.
In the end, Elder En Ya knelt on the ground as if she had lost her mind. She stared blankly as the Dark Dragon Duke swallowed their holy tree.
When the Duke Of Black Dragon finished the Shiratori Potato, the ground under Josiah's feet began to shake.
"Is it really going to collapse? Isn't that Shiratori a clone of the World Tree? "
The reason why Josiah could calmly watch the Black Dragon eat Shiratori like a snack was because Shiratori was only a small clone of the World Tree.
"I don't know …"
Elder En Ya shook her head with a blank expression.
Normally, when the High Elves saw the clone of the World Tree, they would not even have the time to salute. How could someone eat the clone of the World Tree … It was an act that could not be simply described as blasphemy.
"This is not the vibration caused by the descent of Assequero."
Elder Queiduan was the calmest of the three Elven Elders. He quickly ran to the window in the corridor.
"Sunlight?"
Josh immediately opened the window in the corridor and peeked his head out.
The Forgotten Land was originally covered by a huge rock wall. There was only a crack in the center, through which sunlight shone into the Forgotten Land.
But now, the rock wall above the Forgotten Land was slowly closing in on the ground on both sides …
The ruins once again welcomed sunlight. For a moment, Josiah was not used to the light outside.
Another new Shiratori flew in from the window and landed on Josiah's shoulder.
"Ridley's return has given me more authority to control this city."
Shiratori tidied her feathers and explained to Josiah as if nothing had happened.
"I can now make this city do more things," said Shiratori.
"Holy Tree, are you alright?"
After Elder En Ya saw that Shiratori was safe and sound, she stood up with tears in her eyes. But her excitement did not last long. The Duke Of Black Dragon standing behind Josiah suddenly jumped.
He jumped high and easily bit the tail of the Shiratori on Josiah's shoulder. Like an agile crocodile, before Josiah could react, there was only a feather left on Josiah's shoulder.
"Lord Ridley!" Elder En Ya saw the Duke Of Black Dragon's cheeks puff up again. Shiratori's short legs continued to kick in the air. Elder En Ya's mental state was a little broken. "Please don't treat the Holy Tree as your own food anymore!"
The Duke Of Black Dragon did not listen to Elder En Ya's advice at all. He began to enjoy the Shiratori's sweet potatoes like before.
"Don't worry, En Ya."
Another new Shiratori stopped by the open window. This time, Shiratori did not seem to want to be eaten by the Black Dragon, so she did not choose to stop on Josiah's shoulder.
"Holy Tree, are you really not hurt anywhere?" Elder En Ya looked at the Duke Of Black Dragon eating Shiratori's' corpse 'in fear.
The previous World Tree clone still had a small part of its wing left in the hands of the Black Dragon.
"Ridley has been corroded by the Grey Fog for too long. My energy can dilute the Grey Fog in his body and heal his weak body," said Shiratori.
"Uh … Can you use a more peaceful method to transfer energy?"
Josiah picked up the feather that landed on his shoulder from the previous Shiratori's corpse. Josiah was also frightened by the Duke Of Black Dragon's attack just now.
No matter how young he looked, he was still a dangerous Black Dragon, an existence at the top of the food chain in this world.
The Duke Of Black Dragon had already run to the window and looked up at Shiratori. It seemed that he was not full and was ready to catch a third bird to fill his stomach.
"I checked its body … Ridley didn't forget its memories."
The Black Dragon had already climbed to the edge of the window and was ready to jump. Josiah quickly grabbed his waist and carried him back to the ground.
Fortunately, the Black Dragon did not struggle much, otherwise the window would have been destroyed.
"Ridley's memories have been erased, only a small part is left."
Shiratori quietly looked at the Black Dragon, who was acting like a child. Her words revealed a trace of sadness.
"He will not remember us. To put it more directly, he is a newborn that has inherited Ridley's body and soul. We need to guide him, such as teaching him how to hunt."
"The first thing to teach a child is how to behave, right? What the hell is hunting … Uh … I don't have much say in teaching a young Black Dragon. "
Josiah understood what the World Tree meant. Although the Duke Of Black Dragon's body was close to ten thousand years old, his consciousness was not much different from that of a child.
"We don't have any experience, but Ridley is still acting according to his instincts. The first thing we need to do is to clear the Grey Fog in his body and reconstruct his emotions. Only after that is his consciousness."
