Village Head's Debauchery

Chapter 1067: Information About The Secret Realm



It was Isadora!

She soon arrived before them.

"Mr. Orion, I'm glad to finally meet you," Isadora said, breathing heavily as she tried to regain her composure while struggling to remain suspended.

Orion quickly used the One-Winged Sky Art to help her stay aloft.

"Thank you," Isadora said, relieved.

She greeted Crystalia before refocusing on Orion.

"Mr. Orion, I came to ask if you'll be coming to work tomorrow. Some issues really need your attention," Isadora asked, her tone tinged with weariness.

"Yes, I'll be resuming tomorrow," Orion replied, then added, "I can see you've been working hard. Why don't you take a break and head home to rest for the day?"

Isadora shook her head, her expression firm. "There are still other matters I need to handle, Mr. Orion. I'll return home to rest afterwards." She had several tasks to finish before she could relax, ensuring she'd be fully prepared for tomorrow without any lingering concerns.

"No, you've been working tirelessly and deserve a break. I'll prepare a bonus for you later to reward your dedication. Also, I need to see Patriarch Rylan, so I'll escort you back," Orion responded with a warm smile.

Isadora was momentarily surprised by the mention of a bonus, her expression brightening considerably. A look of curiosity crossed her face as she heard his last words. She couldn't help but wonder why Orion wanted to speak with her father.

"If that's the case, then I'll head home to rest," Isadora nodded with a smile.

Meanwhile, Crystalia couldn't resist asking, "Can I come along too?"

Although Patriarch Rylan had been living in Paradise for a while, she had never met him. Curiosity tugged at her, knowing that whatever Orion intended to discuss with him had to be important. She also didn't want to return to the manor alone.

Orion momentarily considered, nodding, "Alright, you can come along." He planned to discuss the spirit realm with Patriarch Rylan, which he knew would take considerable time.

And with Crystalia's current fascination with the outside world, he was sure she would find it intriguing.

...

It took only a few minutes before they arrived at Patriarch Rylan's manor. As they landed and approached the door, it swung open, revealing Patriarch Rylan, Lyndon, and Leif stepping out to meet them.

They quickly exchanged greetings.

"Chief, I wasn't expecting your visit," Patriarch Rylan said with a welcoming smile.

He noticed the unfamiliar woman beside Orion but didn't let his gaze linger. Her overbearing aura and close proximity to the Supreme Leader made it clear that they shared a tight-knit relationship.

"Come in," he added, gesturing with an open hand as he led them inside the manor.

Lyndon and Leif exchanged knowing glances, understanding that the Supreme Leader's visit to their Patriarch had to be for something of great importance. They decided to remain outside, guarding the entrance.

Isadora followed behind them curiously. Though she had a hunch about why Orion wanted to speak with her father, she wasn't entirely sure.

As they entered the room, each took their seats one by one.

"Chief, may I ask what brings you here today?" Patriarch Rylan asked with a smile, his tone warm but tinged with curiosity.

Internally, he was already making his guesses and couldn't help but feel excitement at Orion's arrival.

Orion nodded, responding, "I came to learn everything you know about the spirit realm and spirits."

Patriarch Rylan was momentarily stunned. He had initially assumed that Orion's visit was to discuss the new residence for the Four-eared Elves. The topic of the spirit realm and spirits was utterly unexpected.

Isadora, too, was taken aback, her eyes widening in surprise. She hadn't expected such a question from Orion.

Crystalia's eyes lit up at the mention of the spirit realm. She was interested in the forthcoming discussion and glad she had decided to accompany Orion on this visit.

Sensing the gravity of the request, Patriarch Rylan asked, "Chief, would you like a detailed overview of the spirit realm, or is there something specific you'd like to know?"

The Supreme Leader of Paradise didn't visit him often, so he was keen to share his knowledge.

"Tell me everything you know," Orion responded. Though he had gleaned some understanding of the spirit realm from various memories, he wanted to hear Patriarch Rylan's perspective directly.

Patriarch Rylan nodded and began his explanation. "The Spirit Realm is a parallel dimension that coexists alongside the material world. Unlike the physical world, it operates under its own spiritual and mythical principles. The Spirit Realm is layered, with different regions representing various aspects of existence."

He continued, "At the top is the Upper Realm, inhabited by pure and benevolent spirits. Many of my Four-eared elves form contracts with these spirits to acquire their strength. The Middle Realm is a neutral zone, home to benevolent and malevolent spirits-often referred to as neutral spirits. This realm is chaotic, with spirits fluctuating between light and dark." "It's a dangerous place, even for experienced Four-eared elves, as malevolent spirits sometimes disguise themselves as benevolent ones to form contracts, only to attempt to possess their victim when brought into the physical world."

Patriarch Rylan's expression grew more serious as he spoke of the Lower Realm. "The Lower Realm is the most dangerous layer of the Spirit Realm, filled with chaotic energies and inhabited by malevolent spirits."

"The environment is harsh and unforgiving, and every Four-eared elf is strictly forbidden from accessing it. Anyone found to have contracted with a malevolent spirit is sentenced to banishment, as they pose a threat not only to themselves but also to those around them." He then elaborated on the different ranks of spirits and the various kinds they had encountered.

"So there are other spirits apart from the spirit beasts residing within the Spirit Realm?" Orion asked, furrowing his brows in thought. The information he had gathered from his memories was confirmed in detail by Patriarch Rylan's explanation.

"Yes, that's correct. However, their exact nature remains largely unknown. Despite many years of study, a vast portion of the Spirit Realm remains unexplored," Patriarch Rylan

replied, nodding.

Orion nodded in understanding, finding the explanation plausible. "Is there anything else I should be aware of?"
