Tree of Knowledge

Zero wasn't very bothered by the harsh hisses coming from the guardian. In fact, he showed understanding in his eyes. Ouroboros might have a terrible reputation but his love for the Tree of Knowledge was the real deal. His dedication to protecting it was undeniable even if Zero couldn't understand the reason for his motivation.

The iron gates were finally opened for Zero to enter and the teen released his spell over the guardian. Reluctantly, Ourobos allowed Zero to explore the withered Garden Eden. Apart from that miserable Tree of Knowledge, everything else was dried up and dead, a huge contrast to the plants on the outside. Then again, Zero doubted it. This might be the true image of how Garden Eden looked like. Ouroboros was good with illusions. That path that they walked on earlier could be part of the snake's illusions too.
