Hero of Darkness Chapter 700 New ldentity

Chapter 700 New ldent.i.ty

The influence Bjorn Ironside aka the 4th Hero of Life had on the people of Zivot Empire and the tales of bravery and heroism he earned didn't die even after his death since elves lived far longer and even the imperial clan couldn't silence the people because of their own laws and beliefs.

Subjugating or oppressing the people for personal gains was against the Elven Laws. Even the Emperor would not be spared from the punishment.

Thus, the cultural influence Bjorn Ironside left never vanished and his bloodline only expanded over the past 1400 years even if it wasn't exactly how he taught them.

Even to this day, there were still different clans varying from different species and family trees but identified themselves as the 4th Hero's direct descendant.

As per the information Kahn collected, the 4th Hero's descendants called themselves 'The Ironborn'.

In Zivot empire… even a pureblood elf could actually be a descendant of the 4th Hero and have a trace of his bloodline.

Thus, the culture in some parts of the elven empire itself evolved and now, a symbiotic culture with Viking and Elven customs existed that prayed to the G.o.d of Life.

In these parts of the empire and clans, people used their own methods of wors.h.i.+pping their G.o.d.

Some people sacrificed farm animals while some planted more trees as the G.o.d of Life represented life given and taken to the world.

----------------

Kahn then weighed a few pros and cons in his mind.

Even a weak elf lived up to 150 years. A powerful elf above the 6th stage saint would live at least up to 700 years. This was the case for the current Emperor who was an 8th stage saint and was 658 years old as of now.

However, there were no free coupons for the buffet. The long life and immense control over the mana Elven race had came with a price…

Not only did they age slower than other people, but their ranks as saints also rose 2 to 3 times slower as most of the mana and world energy they absorbed was directly used to increase their longevity. Thus their progression was much stagnating sometimes than other species and races of Vantrea.

This also led to low fertility and birth rate and hence, only 30% of the population was Elves while all the others belonged to different races and species.

However, this also gave Kahn a few alluring ideas of his own and he finally decided on the most important decision he was conflicted about.

His New Ident.i.ty.

----------------

Being a High Elf was out of the equation and the normal Elves would often have names and family trees known to each other. There was a risk of him getting exposed.

On the other end… There were so many branches and family trees among the Ironborns that at this point, no one cared to look into them.

Thus, it made a perfect cover for Kahn if he used the Metamorphosis bloodline to turn into an Elf who stood at the highest hierarchy in the social system without the risk of exposing himself as the 'Human' hero of darkness.

Finally, after completing his deep study of the Zivot Empire, Kahn and the group chose to depart for a particular location.

This time, Kahn chose to avoid the capital of the empire or anything close to the n.o.ble factions, imperial clans or any authority since he wanted no trouble knocking at his doorsteps.

And after changing many modes of transportation while hiding their ident.i.ties as Saints, they finally reached the far northern end of the Zivot Empire.

Their new residence was going to be one of the most important places of the empire where they were going to make a living by doing what they were extremely good at.

After 12 days of travel and making a few stops, they finally reached their main destination.

After getting out of a magic flying hotel made of pure wood and water, the group saw the entrance of their new home.

A grand entrance made of two ma.s.sive trees as tall as Burj Khalifa on both sides that spanned 500 meters in width alone had a 1 kilometer wide pathway where thousands of people pa.s.sed through using their vehicles, s.h.i.+ps, flying beasts and on foot.

The group used their fake Adventurers IDs to enter the place and as the night came, they rented a nice suite with the money they made so far in this empire.

Even the buildings and architecture were a.s.similated and blended perfectly with plenty of enormously spread trees as if Kahn had come to live amongst tree spirits.

Kahn looked outside the window and saw that the first two gigantic trees that welcomed the people weren't even the tallest ones.

There were dozens of ginormous trees that thousands of people carved houses in and lived comfortably given the size of these unending and terrifying trees.

"Feels like I'm at the feet of the World Tree." spoke Kahn.

Thus began the first day of the life of Kahn and The Boys in the region filled with the highest number of Dungeons in the whole Elven empire called…

Alfheim

----------------

Kahn then decided to discard his previous appearance and race as a human for the first time since he came to Vantrea.

With the help of the Elven Bloodline and the mythical rank Metamorphosis bloodline, Kahn now morphed into a different being.

His hair turned stark-white while his ear stretched and elongated upwards.

The iris in his eyes turned red and his figure turned a bit skinnier but even fairer than before.

The slightly wide masculine and chiseled jaw turned into a sharp and pointy one while Kahn's height was also shortened by 3 inches, making him only 6 feet tall now.

And now, a much leaner and fairer skinned Elf stood in front of everyone.

"My Geek senses are tingling." said Kahn as he took up a new persona that would be his fresh start in the Zivot Empire.

"I'm in an empire of Elves and I'm going to use Bjorn Ironside's lineage as a cover.

Since I'm changing appearance, I should also create a fake ident.i.ty with a new name as well." he declared.

"The name should be Elven while the surname should be that of a Viking.

I guess it's decided then.

From now on, I should be called…" spoke Kahn as he was laughing maniacally in his mind and he chose the most fitting name that would satisfy the geek inside him…

"Legolas Ragnarsson."
