The Forbidden Magic Laws of a Fallen Princess

"Then let me take a look."

To be honest, I had absolutely no idea what to do.

However, things will work out in the end. Since they say I am some kind of holy maiden, there must be a way.

However, after observing for a long time and even circling the sacred tree, I discovered something very magical.

On the trunk of the sacred tree, there was something that looked like a bull's horn stuck in the ground.

"Could this be... the horn of the Minotaur...?"

I couldn't help but make a rough guess.

Because of all the animals in this world, apart from the Minotaur with its horns, I really can't imagine any other species that could have such horns.

“How is that possible... How could the Minotaur possibly appear at the place of our sacred tree?”

At this moment, the great patriarch Bazolar stretched out his hands, which seemed to tremble slightly, and then intended to touch the Minotaur's horn on the sacred tree.

In an instant, a dark red light flashed and forcefully slapped its hand away.

"Great Clan Chief!"

In an instant, the many night elves behind him rushed over and caught the high chieftain, Baldora, who was about to fall to the ground.

"It hurts……"

The great patriarch, Bazhuolaer, gritted his teeth and covered his hand, which was beginning to emit faint wisps of smoke. It seemed that he had been seriously burned by this sudden scalding.

Since that's the case, it's time to see what I'm capable of now.

At this moment, I placed my hand on the Aurora Blade at my waist, then concentrated my magic power on the blade, and pulled it out with force.

In an instant, the seemingly stubborn horn of the Minotaur was cleaved in two by me.

The magic that was spreading above vanished in an instant.

"As expected of Her Highness the Holy Maiden of God, she is so powerful."

Instantly, all the night elves' eyes shone with great joy.

Because I found the cause of the sacred tree's withering and resolved it.

"nothing."

Then, I stood on my tiptoes and with a little force, pulled out the remaining section of the Minotaur's horn.

However, in the very next second, something that no one wanted to see happened.

Chapter Five requires the Minotaur's blood to save the Sacred Tree.

Just after I plucked the broken horn of the Minotaur, for some reason, countless rays of light suddenly flowed out of the hole and drifted throughout the entire forest, while also accelerating the decay of the sacred tree.

It seems that this has not only failed to solve the problem, but has actually made it more serious.

"how so……"

Upon seeing this scene, the Great Chieftain Bazhuolar immediately dropped his cane, knelt on the ground, and showed a look of utter despair on his face.

"If this continues... this sacred tree will wither and decay completely in at most twenty years... that wretched Minotaur!"

Bacharak raised his right hand and angrily punched the roots of the sacred tree beneath his feet.

Due to excessive force, the back of his hand appeared to be injured, and bright red blood began to slowly ooze from the wound.

It's clear that the relationship between the Night Elves and the Minotaur is not just bad, but very likely hostile.

This gives me a legitimate reason to save Lira.

Because I know that if I were to rashly go to rescue Lira, I feel that even with the strength of the Minotaur, I wouldn't be able to defeat more than a few of them.

Moreover, my strength is far less than before. In that case, why not let this night elf lend me a hand to help me conquer the Minotaur's lair? I might even be able to save my precious harem member, Lila, from being humiliated and bullied. Wouldn't that be killing two birds with one stone?

"Your Highness, Holy Maiden of God, please save our sacred tree!"

At this moment, Mi'er and Youzi each grabbed one of my arms, as if hoping to find some way to help them out of their dire situation.

"Alright, all of you, stop calling me 'Saintess of God.' My name is Ivy, and I am the Holy Princess of the Human Kingdom. From now on, you can just call me Ivy."

Seriously, all they said about her was "Your Highness the Holy Maiden of God," which made me feel incredibly sacred.

"Okay, Sister Ivy, please help us."

Honestly, these two loli-like dark elves, Yuzu and Mi'er, make me feel both sorry for them and quite cute.

This forced me to try to help them, since I had heard of the legend of the Sacred Tree in anime before... but I was at a loss as to how to solve it.

"Okay, let me think about it."

But since she's been called a saintly goddess, it would be really unreasonable not to find a solution.

Just as I closed my eyes and my mind was a complete mess, I suddenly felt as if two arms were gently embracing me from behind.

(Go and obtain the blood essence of King Minotaur, and you can save the sacred tree that the night elves have guarded for generations.)

In an instant, I opened my eyes and looked around.

But there's no one around. So who gave me the hint?

But that voice sounds so familiar, could it be...?

Is that the goddess Herria?

Sigh, it seems she helped me out again this time.

At this moment, I had a slightly happy smile on my face, because now that I had this solution, my lovely darling Lila could be saved.

Otherwise, even Lila might not be able to save her, and I would lose my life in the process, which would be a huge loss.

"I have an idea!"

Now that I have a definite method, I said with great confidence.

"Hmm? What's the method? Tell me quickly, tell me quickly."

When the Great Chieftain Bazorar heard that I seemed to have a solution, he became instantly excited. He quickly instructed the night elf beside him to bring his father away, then strode forward, took my hand, and asked.

"Well... there's only one way to save the sacred tree: defeat King Minotaur, obtain his blood essence, and then irrigate the roots of the sacred tree with it. That will restore it to its original vibrant state."

Since that's the case, I'll explain things in more detail, adding my own thoughts, just in case they don't understand and keep asking questions when they get back... which would be even more troublesome.

"Go and retrieve the lifeblood of King Minotaur..."

Hearing this, they didn't seem very happy.

Because I also know that the Minotaur is extremely powerful and muscular, and ordinary weapons, bows and arrows, and magic are simply ineffective against him.

Not to mention the king of the Minotaur, whose body must be as hard as steel. It would be pointless to attack him rashly.

"Great Patriarch Bazolar, please send me."

At this moment, Bacharak volunteered and knelt before the great patriarch, Bajolar.

"Hehehe, I know Bacharach. Your parents died at the hands of the Minotaur. You want revenge, don't you?"

"Yes, Lord Bazoral, the Minotaur and I, Bacharach, have an irreconcilable hatred. In any case, please send me on the mission to kill them."

At this moment, Bacharak's hands were clenched tightly, showing that his hatred for the Minotaur was just as great as my hatred for the Black Dragon God.

However, I'm afraid something might go wrong in the middle, and he might lead me into a pit of fire again, which would be terrible.

"Can you control your emotions and not do anything impulsive?"

At this moment, the clan chief, Bazhuolaer, directly stated the most crucial point.

"Of course, no problem. My partner's life is also very important. I will not give up my partner's life because of my own hatred."

"Very well, in that case, you may go."

It seems he has this determination, which proves that we can rest assured.

"Everyone knows how powerful the Minotaur is. Our clan went into seclusion because we have a grudge against it. This mission is to obtain the Minotaur King's blood essence, which means we have to defeat it. This makes it even more difficult. So, who else is willing to go next…?"

"I am willing."

Without saying a word, I immediately extended my hand in response.

"Ah... Holy Maiden of God, oh no, Princess Ivy, are you going too?"

At this moment, the Great Clan Chief Bazhuolaer, who had been squinting, widened his eyes as if he could hardly believe it.

“Yes, my very important friend (harem) has been captured by the Minotaur, so I must rescue her no matter what.”

"Your friend..."

At this moment, the great clan chief, Bazhuolaer, suddenly sighed meaningfully.

“Since Sister Ivy is willing to go, then Mi’er and I will go too, is that alright, Grandpa?”

At this moment, Youzi stepped forward, took Mi'er's and my hands, and said calmly.

"Oh, so it's the two of you. Well then, you two must protect Princess Ivy well,"

"no problem!"

At this moment, Mi'er and Youzi said in unison.
