"Ah, what a beautiful day it is," I thought as I finished my morning routine and training. I sat on my balcony enjoying the scenery around me, taking in the natural charm of the pristine state that nature had returned to.
After a while, I got up and got ready for a jog around the community, hoping to familiarize myself with the people in the neighborhood.
As I stepped out of the house, someone crashed into me, causing me to stumble and fall. I reached out to grab the person responsible, but I ended up slipping on something and falling beneath them.
When I opened my eyes, all I saw was darkness. I tried to clear whatever was blocking my vision with my hands, and as I touched it, I felt a soft and springy sensation.
I squeezed it a few times, feeling great in my hands, but then I heard a moan from above me, which made me freeze.
I quickly realized that I had accidentally touched something I shouldn't have, so I hurriedly took my hands away and tried to talk to the lady. I assumed that she was a young lady from the voice I heard earlier, but my mouth was also stuck.
"Don't move, Mr. Wait for a little, and I'll get up from you," she said, stuttering in between her words. She moved away from me and sat beside me, trying to regain her composure. I sat up and turned my face towards her to see who I had bumped into.
To my surprise, she was a great beauty and a milf onee-san. I felt lucky to encounter such a beautiful milf in the morning, and the feeling of those soft, springy sensations with sweet fragrance still lingered in my mind.
She was wearing casual clothes, a white shirt, and a black mini skirt with a black jacket above the white shirt, looking like an office lady. The shirt over her big boobs was having a hard time containing them, and her thick thighs, huggable waist, round, firm, full, and springy butt made her very hot.
I liked her beautiful blond waist-length hair tied in a ponytail hairstyle and wine-red eyes with snow-white and soft-looking skin.
These women take the top position when it comes to beauty and voice. I had heard her sweet voice before, and it was like a sweet melody.
"Hello, I am sorry about what happened before. I was in a hurry. Are you all right? Also, are you new in the neighborhood? This is the first time I saw you here. I live just beside the house you came from, and I heard yesterday that someone was going to move in beside us. So it must be you and your family, right?" She greeted me with a small blush on her face, trying to hide it with a small smile before standing up with my help.
She hadn't seen me before, but she had heard that someone was moving in beside her house. I realized that this mature milf onee-san was my neighbor. What a stroke of fantastic luck to have such a lovely person as my neighbor.
"Hello there, please excuse me for not introducing myself earlier. I'm Erick Dahl and since we're neighbors now, you can just call me Erick. It's a pleasure to meet you, Ms. Umn. Oh, wait, I don't know your name yet," I gestured towards her, realizing my mistake.
"My apologies! I'm Kristine Camilo. Likewise, it's nice to meet you. I'm in a bit of a hurry right now, but when I come back, I'll make sure to properly welcome you and your family with a party. See you later!" Kristine shook my hand and introduced herself before hurrying off. We exchanged goodbyes, and she left.
"See you later, Camilo Onee-san!" I said as I saw her off to the community gate. Then, I wandered around the community and came across some elderly people doing light exercises in the garden, which was attached to a small park.
I introduced myself to the group of grandpas there, some of whom had a mysterious vibe, while others seemed quite ordinary.
I could tell that they all had a lot of life experience and were likely successful in their respective fields, given that they lived in this top middle-class community.
I figured that getting to know some of the locals wouldn't hurt, especially since I'd be living here for a few years. Plus, I needed to make sure that nobody here had any ill intentions towards us.
"Hello, uncles! How are you all doing today?" I greeted them, hoping to strike up a conversation.
"Hello, young man. We're healthy and doing well. You must be new here, as we don't recognize your face. Most of the young people who live here are our grandchildren, so we know them all," one of the elderly men replied. He had white hair on his head and small beard, along with a few wrinkles on his face.
But, overall, he looked healthy, and so did the rest of the group. It was as though their life force had been enhanced by something, which was probably due to the new environment and their healthy diets.
"Yes, we just moved here yesterday, and I'm Erick Dahl. I saw you all while I was wandering around and thought I'd come over to say hello and get to know you all," I explained. I also checked their auras a little to see if anyone had any dark intentions hidden in their hearts, but I found nothing.
I felt a little relieved to know that they weren't a threat to my parents or anyone else for that matter.
The group introduced themselves and their families, and we had some small talk. I also offered to help them out a little, as they had been kind to me. I used my knowledge of acupuncture to help them relieve their hidden illnesses and body pains.
"See you later, young Erick! Don't forget to come here tomorrow and help us, elderly folks a little, hahaha," one of the men patted my back and invited me to join them in their morning exercises. I felt happy to have met such a funny and kind group of old-timers.
I bid them farewell, promising to come back again. I enjoyed the company of the experienced fogies and looked forward to getting to know them better. I knew that if I didn't make it back in time, my mother would be worried and cause a fuss, so I made sure to head back home.
.......
"I'm home, mother. Is lunch ready? I'm feeling a little hungry right now," I announced my presence a few minutes after arriving at my new home.
"Welcome back, son. Come to the dining room as food is already ready and I am setting up at the table," my mother replied warmly. I headed to the bathroom to wash my face and hands before joining my mother in the dining room.
"So, where did you go? Did something good happen?" my mother asked me as I sat down. I explained what had happened when I was out helping some old men.
"Mother, I'll be in my room. Please call me when Camilo Onee-san comes here to invite us," I said before leaving to focus on something important I needed to finish.
I entered an empty room and took out some rare items from my inventory that I had acquired from the black market with the help of Aashi. These items were not easily accessible in this world, and I needed them to establish myself and build prestige.
"Aashi, remind me when Mother calls for me as I'll be busy for a while, okay?" I asked my AI assistant.
"Affirmative, Master," Aashi replied.
Several hours later, Aashi reminded me to stop working and get ready as my mother had called for me. After taking a bath, I got ready in more casual clothes.
"Okay, Mom, I'm ready. When are we going?" I asked my mother, who was already dressed in a beautiful white one-piece dress with cherry flower patterns. My father changed into something more presentable.
We departed for the party in the car sent by the organizer. At the party, I had to remind my parents to act casual and not become tense as it was just a welcoming party for new people in the community to get to know their neighbors better.

180. Epilogue -End
............Yuyun closed her eyes and placed her hands over the seed, her mind filled with thoughts of Big Sis Aashi and Big Brother Erick. She imagined their smiles, their laughter, and the way they had always protected her. The seed responded to her emotions, glowing brighter as tendrils of light began to weave through the air. The Life Tree’s core resonated with the seed, and the room was bathed in an ethereal glow. The Grand Elder and the other two female Elders watched in awe as the seed began to sprout. A tiny shoot emerged, growing rapidly until it was a young sapling with delicate leaves that shimmered like stars. "Whaaaammmmnnn...!!"Suddenly, the sapling released a burst of energy that filled the chamber, a wave so powerful it reached beyond the Life Tree, spreading throughout the Elven Tribe and beyond. The Grand Elder gasped, sensing the energy’s reach. “This... this energy is like what I read in legends, just like what the Mother of Tree Life gives,” she murmure
179. Life Tree’s Heart
............"We bought ourselves time… but I don't think that entity will stop its pursuit of us... We need to leave fast," Erick muttered weakly, his gaze dark as if sensing a foreboding. Aashi tightened her grip on him, her voice trembling. "Then we should really leave from here." "But... as you can see, I don’t have the energy to perform escape dimension travel...!" Erick reminded her of another dire situation they were in. "What should we do then, Master?" Aashi asked with a flustered expression, knowing she was also unable to do that."Booommn...!!" "Ohhh... no!" Another loud booming noise sounded, making Erick and Aashi exclaim in startled expressions. Fear gripped them, but before the entity could reach them, the amulet Aashi was keeping in her pocket came out and floated in front of them before shining brightly. "Isn’t this...!!" Aashi widened her eyes as she recognized it. Before she could say anything or the massive shadowy hand could reach them, the amulet activ
178. Life Threatening Situation
............Meanwhile, Erick closed his eyes, drawing his rest of the energy. "Whooosh...!!"His Origin Energy surged, surrounding him in a radiant aura of translucent light. The cracks in the void seemed to retreat from his presence as the energy reached its peak."Just a little longer..." he muttered, sweat dripping down his face. Aashi, noticing Erick’s aura growing brighter, redoubled her efforts. She leapt into the air, spinning the chaotic blade to create a vortex of energy that struck the Beast’s shoulder. "Come on, you’re not getting away this time!" "Graaaahhh...!!"The Mist Void Beast howled in pain but didn’t falter. It retaliated with a blast of its own chaotic energy, sending Aashi flying backward. She crashed into the void’s fractured ground, coughing but still holding herself up."Now, Master!" she shouted, her voice souded hoarse.Erick opened his eyes, now glowing with an ethereal light. He raised his hands, the origin energy swirling into a massive sphere abov
177. Last Stand of Mist Void Beast
............"Chaotic Swirling Blade!" Aashi shouted, her hands glowing as they formed the same chaotic amalgamation of a blade as Erick’s. "Swiiish... Baaaammnn...!" The Beast’s claws slammed into Erick’s barrier of energy, causing ripples to spread through the void like shattered glass. Erick pushed back with a burst of power, sending the creature staggering. "Now!" Erick commanded. "On it!" Aashi yelled, darting to the side with lightning-quick speed. She spun mid-air, coordinating with her Master, and both thrust forward together from both sides, pinning the Mist Void Beast between them. "Slaaashh..." "Graaaaahhhhh..!!" The blade struck the Mist Void Beast on both sides, slicing through its dark mist and eliciting a furious roar. The creature turned its glowing red eyes toward them, fury emanating from its very core. "GRRRRAAAHHH!!" The Beast retaliated, opening its maw to release a surge of void energy. Aashi and Erick dodged just in time, the energy narrowly m
176. Mist Void Beast
............Aashi hurried back to the Elven Stronghold, her heart pounding with worry for her Master. Even though the Stronghold was still standing, the air was heavy with the residual energy of Erick’s attack, and the sky above bore traces of the aftermath, with the strain of cracks spreading across the portal. She could see the Elven warriors, battered but still standing guard at the stronghold's perimeter, their bodies tense and senses heightened. Inside the stronghold, the Grand Elder was channeling her energy into reinforcing the protective barrier. The translucent dome shimmered like a fragile shell, barely holding against the chaotic forces outside. "Ms. Aashi, what is happening out there?" the Grand Elder asked, her trembling voice revealing the strain she was under from the overuse of her energy. "Master Erick is holding off the portal, but the situation has worsened. Cracks are forming in the world barrier itself. He’s… planning to gamble everything to stop it,"
175. Energy Fusion... Elemental Big-Bang...!
............The Grand Elder looked thoughtful and then nodded. "We are grateful for your help. Please let us know if there is anything you need." The elder Ramona bowed slightly, his curiosity about Aashi's master growing. The Grand Elder smiled at little Yuyun, who was also helping her tribesmen. "Can you look after little Yuyun? I will go assist my master; otherwise, your people's casualties will keep on increasing," Aashi said as she gestured toward Yuyun, who was nearby helping an old man drink water. "Hmm... please leave little Yuyun in our care. I will personally look after her, so please help our tribesmen!" The Grand Elder nodded, looking at Yuyun, and bowed in gratitude toward Aashi as she requested. "Alright." Aashi smiled lightly at her before gesturing for little Yuyun to come near her. "Little Yuyun, be a good girl and don't leave that pretty elder's side while I am away helping these people, okay?" Aashi sat down and patted her head as she spoke in a soft ton
