The guardian of the Biranssen Wilderness World was a white bird.
Saine had heard of it earlier from the Spiked Green Mushroom King.
But when he truly met it, he discovered that it was a being whose very presence could soothe one's spirit.
One of the Biranssen Wilderness World guardian Bai Ling's wings was still bent even now.
This had not been caused by the oppression of those foreign Gorilla Gods. Rather, in order to save the hundreds of thousands of ordinary lowly creatures at the heart of the forest, this guardian had used its own flesh-and-blood wing as a shield, offsetting part of the power of Gagaru's single-target forbidden spell.
This was a truly selfless and great creature.
From its actions, no one could doubt that if its life could be exchanged for the lives of the lowly creatures of the Biranssen Wilderness World, it would do so without the slightest hesitation.
The guardian of the Green Leaf World had been the same.
This seemed to be a common failing of all guardians.
"Actually, I noticed you not long after you first descended into this world," the white bird said to Saine after they met.
"Oh?" Saine raised his brow in surprise. He condensed a tree stump out of Element Power, then sat down opposite the white bird.
This was a relatively formal meeting. Besides Saine, three other Demigod-level Magicians were participating in the negotiations, each representing one of the other three Holy Towers involved in this Plane War.
Peak Demigod-level Magician Master Stefano was among them as well. However, since everything had been discussed beforehand, Saine would serve as the primary speaker in these negotiations.
The other three Demigod-level Magicians were merely there for form's sake, to listen in and leave behind their magical marks at the end.
