377-369 Changes in the world tree

As a multi-headed dragon, each Hydra has its own independent thought, and not only do they release powerful breaths in tandem, but they are actually a troublesome monster that uses a lot of magic as well.

Moreover, even if they crush the heads one by one, they possess the vicious skill of regenerating after some time.

Even so, if Lydia was in perfect condition, she would not only be able to defend herself, but she would also be able to fight back....

That's because she was already in the Labyrinth of Conspiracy, and when her level had risen to a certain extent, she had been able to complete the battle alone against Hydra.

Well, even so, he said that he would still tremble with trauma when confronted with it.......

But this time, since the spirits were using their power to protect the World Tree, they could only use weak spirit magic, and they would have a hard time.

I didn't expect them to be attacked, so I'm really glad I made it in time.

''Well, I'm sorry, but I'll let you decide at once by force.

I activate my sanctuary armor with a lot of magic power again while running to Hydra and pouring my magic power into the illusory sword.

It's a good idea to have a good time with them.

I'm sure it would have looked like that from the side.

The sanctuary armor played all the breaths and magic, and I paid off the illusory sword as hard as I could.

Then a slash flew to Hydra's chest, and a single character was engraved on Hydra's chest. I'm sure you'll be happy to know that the miasma of the miasma is not the same as the one you're looking for.

I immediately activated my purification magic and, being conscious of not affecting the forest, I set my sights on the next hydra and ran out to it.

It seems that the Hydra didn't expect me to defeat them all by myself, and since there were quite a few gaps, I was able to defeat the six Hydra without any trouble.

The miasma (miasma fever) is a miasma that can cause the miasma to rise.

I'm not sure if this is some kind of summoning magic.

I'm sure you'll be able to find the right one.

I thought about erasing the magic circle as it was, but I decided to activate the sanctuary wards and wait to see what would be summoned.

The miasma is a miasma that has been in the form of a human being, so the miasma became pale and white flames before it disappeared.

It's not that convenient,

I stowed the magic stone, which was missing its mechanism, into the magic bag and then returned to the Pope and the others.

Then I noticed that the three of them were giving me dumbfounded looks.

''Um, did you do something?''　

What's the matter with you? What were you thinking, plunging into the Hydra?

Then the Pope interjected first, followed by Lumina-san.

''Luciel-kun, when did you start doing such reckless things? Although you've certainly become stronger, one wrong move and you wouldn't have been able to get seriously injured.

''That's right. And you've defeated most of the demons since you entered this forest!　Are you okay with the magic?

I didn't expect Lydia, who was dying earlier, to even tell me... but I don't think she was caught off guard or proud this time.

''Well, first of all, regarding being attacked by Hydra, I saw my master and Lionel doing something similar during the battle training with Bazak to prevent magic, so I was able to train and imitate it too.

In the case of the masters, magic, or something like a fighting spirit, was rising from their bodies, and the membrane was playing magic.

Well, after that, Bazak snapped and built a trap with magic, and Master and Lionel were on the verge of a catastrophe.......

''If you can fight that well, then you should just slay the dimensions like your father did, without a flashy fight.

'No, don't use Lord Leinster as a reference point.

It's only because I'm not out of the bounds of humanity.

''Pope, with all due respect, this is not the place for me to caution you against Luciel-kun's behavior...''

I've tried my best to protect everyone in this, and if possible, I hope Lumina-san believes it too.

...Huh, don't go away on your own.　

Lumina-san admitted, even though she sounded so weak.

''You know that Lydia also knows that magic power was mass-produced by Paula and Lisian for the magic crystal spheres, right?

'That's true, but to deal with that pack of demons,'

I haven't fought them properly, so I didn't consume that much magic power........

''It's more dangerous to fight masters in the Labyrinth of Plotting, and the Labyrinth of Plotting is much stronger than that in comparison. Even Lydia knows that because she leveled up, right?

Still, I don't think even Luciel-sama is capable of killing Hydra in the blink of an eye.

I've been doing a lot of mock fights with my mentor and Lionel, so I know when it's really dangerous.

I didn't struggle with the self-proclaimed demon king when I saved Lumina-san and the others, and I guess the only problem is the evil gods, after all.

Come to think of it, it's true that while Lydia, Nadia, and everyone in the War Maiden Holy Knight Squad were power-leveling, I wasn't participating in the battle.

That's right, Lydia said something that was bothering me.

''Lydia, when did the demons start appearing in this forest?''

It started a few hours ago. Once, a while after I contacted Luciel-sama, this forest shook a lot once.

After all that panic?

''Yes. Then I was on alert, but nothing happened, only that when I finished communicating with Luciel-sama, this time I couldn't use my magic ball.

As expected, it must have been hard to be alone in this forest.

"So where the hell did those demons come from?

A demon has crawled out of the ground.

From the ground...

''Yes. It didn't take long, so it was all I could do to maintain the wind wards and hide myself. Luciel-sama and the others came just as our magic power was about to dry up, and we were really grateful for their help.

While Lydia was smiling, I had other things on my mind.

That self-proclaimed demon king said that he collected all the magic stones in the labyrinth, and if there was an evil god's magic stone somewhere in Nerdal, did he set something up at that time?　Or was something set up from the previous brainwashing fiasco?　　There's a lot of things I don't understand.

'I should have thought about this happening, but I'm glad I made it in time anyway. So where are the spirit queens?

We are committed to the World Tree that lies ahead.　　

Can you show me around?

Yes, sir.

When Lydia walked into the forest where she had been warded, the World Tree, which should have been small yet, was large enough to look up.

The spirits were praying in a hexagonal formation around the world tree, and only the spirit queen seemed to be directly supplying magic power by placing her hands on the world tree, and the world tree was glowing mysteriously.

I was overwhelmed by the spectacle, but the Pope slowly moved forward step by step to the World Tree.

Then, as he walked through the spirits, he hugged the World Tree.

Then, as if he was hallucinating, light flooded out of the World Tree and took the form of a person, and the person in the form of the light gently embraced the Pope.

''Mother I have always wanted to see you.

Only the Pope's sobbing voice reached my ears firmly, and I immediately understood that that spirit-like being was the Pope's mother.
