Chapter 1066 Yggdrasil's Chosen

-----

Aquarina was really, really concentrated synthetizing a bunch of blue colored crystals with her Alchemy Cauldron, to the point she surprised me quite a bit.

"Sylphy! You're back!"

"Yep I'm back, how's everything going? I see you're quite busy."

"Y-Yeah..."

She got a bit shy after I saw her working on her own things. But it was a nice thing to see. It reminded me I wasn't the only Alchemist, and that she was taught about Alchemy Magic by my mother as well.

Aquarina was in fact rather talented, I mostly relied on my Skills, but she could do amazing things only with her proficiency, patience, and magic alone.

"Ah! Sorry for going off, I was looking at a few things in my Dungeon." I giggled slightly embarrassedly. "Anyways, what's wrong? Are you embarrassed?"

"A bit, I was just making a few things on my own..." She sighed. "Because my Spirits are at max level, I was thinking on helping them evolve using some compatible materials! Like you said before, they can grow stronger if I do that, right?"

"Right..." I nodded. "Are you making special magic crystals?"

"Indeed, I wanted some time alone to make them, so I decided to do it while you were in the dungeon." She guessed I was there. "Um..."

"Right, I'll leave you be if you need some time alone, sorry to disturb you." I nodded. "I'll bring some breakfast for you!"

I knew she could have just asked me for help, she was still trying to figure a powerful catalyst on her own, but she wanted to do it on her own too, so if I offered my help, I might be insulting her efforts.

"A tattoo with a tree and an eye!" My mother gasped, covering her mouth.

"Wait, huh?" My dad seemed a bit clueless. "Isn't that what your grandmother has, Sylphy? What's that about? Some magic power?" He wondered, while serving himself some black tea.

"T-That's the Blessing of Yggdrasil!" My mother screamed, panicking and getting happy at the same time. "I-I can't believe it! Yggdrasil chose you, Sylphy?!"

"Y-Yeah... While I was sleeping I entered her Domain for a bit, she said I would become her Gardener." I sighed. "Ugh, I was planning on keeping it a secret to not make a fuss about it."

"A Gardener you say? I see, so she chose you because of your blooming talent and your heroic deeds." My mother nodded. "Makes sense to an extent...I guess you were not chosen as a Saint, my mother is the current Saint of Yggdrasil, there can't "A Gardener you say? I see, so she chose you because of your blooming talent and your heroic deeds." My mother nodded. be more than one. This means you've become an Yggdrasil's Knight, someone destined to serve Yggdrasil as their protector."

"Ugh, is that a lot of responsibility?" My dad asked. "I want Sylphy to be free like the wind, you know? Tying her to these things..."

"Don't worry, dear. She'll always be free. This is mere a small gift from the tree." My mother smiled. "There's nothing to fear nor to feel worried about. It will still be on Sylphy's own judgement if she ever wants to aid Yggdrasil in a crisis... Though, knowing her, she would have done it even if she didn't get a blessing."

"Well, I guess? It is like a Goddess that protects the entire continent we live on, so I don't have much of a choice myself." I shrugged. "Her Blessing made me stronger though, I feel a deeper connection with nature like never before... Mom, do you have the blessing too?"

"No, not me." She sighed. "I don't know why but I was never chosen, maybe because I obeyed the Gods' orders too much, and that displeased her. After all, Yggdrasil is a Goddess born in this world, although right now the Gods of Heaven and the Gods of Terrarium have a neutral relationship, Yggdrasil still must not think well of them... Your revolutionary thought process, the way you accept everyone, and how you plan to not just kill the Demon King when they're born... I suppose you're someone Yggdrasil would like. Instead of me, someone that went along... and did atrocities because I thought it was the right thing."

"Mom..." I sighed. "Y-You don't have to think of yourself like that, you were being manipulated too! A-And there was also a real threat in that time, our country was being attacked..."

"I know, but there were still many things I shouldn't had done..." She sighed. "I... Well, you're right. Let's think on the present now! Congratulations, dear."

She hugged and kissed me happily, but within her words, I could still feel her enormous guilt, something that was always, constantly weighing down on my mother's shoulders...
