Episode 176. Gift

“Elder Hugen! That human bastard tried to kill me!”



The timing is also... ... .

I clicked my tongue as I saw Seir immediately begin to tell.

“human. I need an explanation. I think of disposition based on the answer.”

Hougen said while holding out his signature twin swords.

No matter how strong I become, I will be pushed back by Hougen, who is said to be the strongest swordsman of the elves.

“I heard the voice of the World Tree. They said there was something bothering them at the root.”

I started blatantly lying.

“The voice of the world tree?”

“lie! That’s a lie, Elder!”

Hugen looked at me suspiciously.

However, there was nothing to be afraid of in the yard where there was already evidence.

“Do you see the flesh behind me?”

“hmm?”

Only then did Hugen look away, frowning and asking.

“What is that?”

“It is a parasite. The world tree was getting sick because of that.”

“Elder! Don’t be fooled! I found that monster first. Coincidentally, a human arrived after me, so when I explained to him, he was faking it as if he had done it himself!”

Seir screamed in a fit of fuss.

This isn’t some kind of mafia game, what are you trying to do?

“Aside from that monster, why did the two of you fight?”

“After I dealt with the monster, that human cowardly attacked! I want to stop you from killing monsters!”

is that kid?

Hougen’s eyes sent even more suspicion.

“Elder. Although I am a human, I received an oracle and am the one who said that I must head to the root before anyone else. I already heard the voice of the World Tree at that time, but I didn’t say it because I didn’t think you would believe it. I really tried to protect the World Tree. Rather, the traitor is the leader of the Wind Knights there.”

“Is the second star of the wind a traitor?”

“Don’t be fooled by the wicked man’s words! Why am I betraying the elves!”

Hugen’s brow narrowed even more.

It sounds like you’re having a lot of trouble, but I decided to alleviate that worry.

“Elder. Examine Seir’s bosom now. Perhaps there will be evidence that he is a traitor.”

Seir’s complexion hardened at my words.

However, he quickly changed his expression so that Hugen couldn’t see it, and shook his head.

“joy! Nonsense! What is evidence? After all, humans are wicked and wicked.”

Then he proudly spread his arms out.

“Then you look around. I wonder what evidence you are talking about.”

“Are you okay, Elder?”

First, I asked Hugen.

Then he looked at the two of us with a meaningful expression and nodded.

There was no answer.

“If no evidence comes out, you will die.”

“well.”

Not everything goes the way you want.

I pretended to be approaching him and fired at him.

Galaksur, which burst out of the scabbard in an instant as if light were emanating from it, poured down so quickly that even Hougen couldn’t react.

Swoop!

Bey quietly, without even making a noise.

The Aura Master, Seir, couldn’t even resist and dropped his head.

visor!

“What are you doing?”

Blocking Hougen’s sword that came running late, he stepped back.

I shrugged and was still wary of Hougen’s sword.

“I didn’t know what he was up to, so I just killed him. It is the fault of the negligent opponent.”

“Do you think that is an excuse?”

Hugen’s eyebrows went up.

And a great energy of mana swirled around Hougen.

Oh, is it raining?

“Seir Moraje Frasilia. He’s a definite traitor. Isn’t it strange that he, who had to patrol the Great Forest as the leader of the Wind Knights in the first place, dared to follow the World Tree?”

“I have nothing more to say to you.”

“Dark elves are targeting Rastilia. Not just Dark Elves. Some vampire factions and some dwarves are watching for an opportunity.”

“... ... Are you talking about the scene?”

“You knew.”

However, Hougen still showed no sign of lowering his sword.

An inconceivable stubbornness could be seen in his tightly pursed lips.

“I’m sorry, but I can’t let you go after killing Seir. This is a matter of our species... ... .”

“Be patient, patient... ... .”

Maybe it’s because I’ve been in high school for 4 years?

“This dog thing makes me swear. You fucking bastard, do you guys like me and help me? I am also helping the World Tree to get better.”

I had endured it for a while, but the pain I had so far came to mind and I exploded.

I was able to become stronger thanks to you, but that was entirely my effort.

The elves who have continued to be a stumbling block instead of helping me up until now are not acceptable on my side.

Look at it even now

The place we arrived at was a round space.

It was similar to where I was trapped, but there was something different about the centerpiece.

‘Great mana.’

It was a huge jewel-like object wrapped around a tree, but it seemed like I had seen it a lot somewhere, both in terms of mana and appearance.

Maybe nuclear... ... isn’t it the same thing?

You couldn’t have brought me to such an important place... ... .

-human.

I felt a huge wave reverberating through the space itself.

The waves were transformed like voices and came to me.

“Is it the world tree?”

– Thank you. I am the world number.

I’m clumsy with words.

“Why did you bring me here? Are you going to lock me up again?”

-Sorry. I’m a bad guy that humans bully me.

I don’t know what you’re talking about.

Are you saying that I’m the bad guy who bullies the World Tree?

So, what’s the point?

-human. observer. whose?

“observer? Are you talking about original sin?”

original sin The World Tree is looking for you.

But original sin had no response.

Except for the first time he was locked up, he seemed unwilling to wake up.

―What bothered me was the observer subordinate. But humans helped. Thank you.

Light emanated from what appeared to be a nucleus.

And soon after, a tree trunk came down from above my head holding something.

-gift.

It was something that looked like a fruit, a long branch and leaves.

“Is it a set of world trees?”

I received it as equipment in the game, but that’s because it’s a game... ... .

This fruit is unexpected.

Could it be the fruit of the World Tree?

Even if everything else was obtained, this fruit was a rare item that had never been obtained in the game.

First of all, as soon as I put it in Nickel’s bag, a message rang.

[‘Achievement: The one who saved the world tree’ has been achieved.] You have

already entered here and achieved two achievements.

I got 2 of them so far, but it doubled in an instant.

‘I’ll have to go back and settle the accounts later.’

Anyway, I had something to ask the World Tree.

Something I’ve been curious about ever since I was invited.

“I have a question for you.”

-Tell me please. human.

“Why did you call me by an oracle? You should have called the elves.”

-trust. my master writes It’s not what I write.

“Are you saying that the oracle is from Tapio and that you have nothing to do with it?”

-That’s right.

After all, I can’t imagine the thoughts of those who are called gods.

Why did you bother letting me do it and why did you bother watching the World Tree corrupt?

‘In hindsight, the fall of the World Tree is a bad thing from our point of view.’

From God’s point of view, it could be that or that.

They seemed to have a screw missing somewhere.

-I’ll get you out.

“Hey, let’s ask for one more.”

-Tell me.

“The elves are misunderstanding right now, can you step up and give it to them?”

-i get it.

I’m glad.

Did you get everything you can get here with this?

– Get on here.

A huge tree trunk came down.

As he climbed onto the tip of the stem, the ground shook and the ceiling opened.

And the stem I sat on began to rise above the ground.

“at las... ... .”

It’s out.

For others, it might be only a day or a little longer, but for me, it was four years.

‘If you think about it, I think it’s been longer than Lethe’s dungeon?’

I honestly don’t know.

At that time, time really stopped and I had no idea how much time had passed.

Let’s go out in the warm sunlight... ... .

“A human is out!”

“What is that? Why is the World Tree... ... !”

“What the hell happened!”

Numerous elves surrounded the World Tree.
