Chapter 1171: Back Home With A New Little Pal



"My name is Celes, Myconidas! Nice to meet you!"

"Wow! Hi Celes! First time I meet a human! Your eyes are pretty like blue jewels!"

"T-Thanks! Hehe, you're cute!"

"Really?! Hahaha! I guess I am!"n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Myconidas! Let's play together!"

"Okay Nyx! What do you want to play?"

"Let's play catch! You run and I try to catch you, hehehe!"

"Okay!"

"W-Wait, Nyx, that game is a bit...!"

"Let's begin! Raaarrr!"

The children quickly started playing with Myconidas, giving him a lot of attention. He quickly went from being sad to being really happy, as Nyx began chasing him around and they began running around the entire house.

"So that just happened, huh? You used the Divine Undead Scroll and ended getting dragged into Hel from all places!" said Lucifer. "And that goddess just told you to take care of her kid?! Isn't she a bit irresponsible?!"

"I guess she's a bit... Yeah, yeah," I nodded while sighing. "She is! But I think this was necessary anyways, that brat, Myconidas, he needs to experience the world outside of the Underworld. He seems to have enormous potential, but being confined there might have stunted his growth."

"And you're willing to bring him along despite that?" muttered Partner. "I would have just rejected her offer!"

"I guess you would, but it's not like Maria had an option, after all, we owe a lot to Lady Hel," said Emeraldine. "She has been protecting this place from other Gods, she has blessed us all with her powers and allowed Maria to grow this strong as well by turning her into her Saintess. Without her to begin with, things would certainly not be the same as before." "I agree..." I nodded. "She always helps me, and although she complains a lot and also reprimands me a lot... I can't really get completely mad at her for asking me this favor. I'll just bring Myconidas along, what's so hard about bringing another kid with us? There's two already with Celes and Nyx anyways!"

"Gyuuh! That's right! And fourth with me, right?" suddenly, a cute egg-shaped wooden bird- like creature appeared by my left side, overflowing with an Aura of Spirits and Nature, it had two small holes on its mask-like face, and one long stick as a "nose" while being covered by green leaves resembling the plumage of a chick. "Oh, Root! Hey there, you wanted to come?" Root was a special type of plant creature, a monster, spirit, and calamity all in one, born from my Dungeon after a plant happened to absorb the fragments of a Calamity Seed which was once owned by the Ant Queen boss.

Since then, I've taken care of him and he had evolved several times, progressively growing stronger and bigger, and becoming a big help as his immense body can protect the village, and he can even expand underground through his roots, he had also grown over at the elven village where Emeraldine's family is, replacing the dead Spirit Tree that once protected them. "Yes, I want! I want!" he said happily. "Root is strong, can exist in many places through Spiritual Roots gyuuh!"

"Can you?" I wondered. "I'm a bit worried... You've already done a lot by protecting the village, then expanding to Emeraldine's elven village too."

"Also I'm in the dwarven city as a big tree!" he said. "People there is nice!"

"Woah, I feel stronger!" he said out of nowhere. "Master?"

"A-Ah, yeah! I feel so strong too," I nodded. "Now I got Five Divine Spirits contracted with

me, damn."

"Wow, that's more than me!" Emeraldine sighed. "I have not been able to find suitable Spirits other than my Nature and Light Spirits. Though, I've had them since I was born so they're

always there for me..."

"Gyuuh! I can make contract with auntie Emeraldine too, she is nice!" said Root, flying

towards her. "Divine Spirit Contract!"
