I Think I’m Going to be Fired (6)

Something that can’t be abandoned.

Guilds are trade unions but in reality, they are huge corporations. There are various restrictions on the work that the guild arranges for them such as penalties for late deliveries and increasing quota.

「Yeah….」

Riito thought for a moment and jumped down from the window of the ox carriage.

「Imperial capital’s young master?」

「Stand back a little, ehto…..」

「Mel desu.」

「I’m Riito. Mell, stand back a little. If you can, turn around and close your eyes.」

「Are you going to pee standing up?」

「No!」

「….ah, so you’re going to let a big one out?」

「Of course not!」

How can you say that like it was nothing?

The people of the Guild Autonomous Region are said to have refreshing disposition but this is more than refreshing. Even Riito is ashamed.

He made Mel step back and stared at the fallen giant tree while emphasizing he won’t pee while standing and of course, he’ll not take a dump.

Gently, Riito touches the trunk of the tree.

「…….move」

One word.

As soon as Riito gave that command to the giant tree, a change occurred in the thick trunk of the tree.

The roots of the tree moved.

It was as if the tree had its own will.

The magic that Riito applied to the roots of the giant tree was “Life Growth” and “Life Wither”.

Growth and wither. The growth and withering of plants are controlled by repeating these processes. That’s exactly what’s happening with the giant tree.

The roots of the giant tree intertwine with each other and form two legs as Riito sways his arm like an orchestra conductor.

Eventually, the giant tree stands up and walked toward the river---

「Dive!」

With a shout, the giant tree throws itself into the river,

Splash. Water sprayed everywhere.

When Riito lowered his arm, the roots of the giant tree stopped moving again.

It was a relief to know that the giant tree had not blocked the flow of the river.

It also became a bridge to the other side of the river which is killing two birds with one stone.

「Alright, it’s done.」

Plant magic.

This is his specialty and he can handle this kind of thing in no time.
