Chapter Index

    Day 155 of the Fog Forest.

    Tree trunk house.

    Hatchery.

    The strengthening of the human clone left on the first floor was completed, but instead of starting to climb the tower right away, I took care of the modification fruit at home.

    Already the 7th fruit modification.

    This time it feels different.

    It seemed like something new would be born.

    Since climbing the tower can be done at any time anyway, I focused on mixing the vital factors by manipulating the 20 well-ordered fruits one by one.

    There are as many as 20 fruits this time.

    And instead of using the Swalios factor, I took on a new challenge by mixing various adaptations of the factor.

    As such, the success rate must be low… .

    Surprisingly, a different guy appeared.

    I wonder what the difference is, but it’s a lot different than I thought.

    Sigh~

    I squatted down and stroked the fruit.

    The fruit was as small as a human face and had a slightly purple color.

    The physiognomy at birth is clearly different.

    My fruits are usually huge from the start.

    However, as the life factor was mixed, this thing got smaller and smaller and turned into this.

    “Isn’t that defective?”

    It’s so bad that Shaella asks that question.

    For your information, Shaella was watching me from behind, munching on chocolate one by one.

    “It’s not defective. On the contrary, they mix so well that I wonder what kind of person will come out.”

    “Well mixed?”

    For reference, the ingredients for this fruit are simple.

    Like a dryad, I combined elf and plant factors, imitated some of Cardelphion’s mana characteristics, and then mixed them by about 30% as if creating life.

    The explanation is strange, but anyway.

    This is a Jjamppong fruit that was originally imbued with life fruit and plant factors to use as a stepping stone for studying modified fruits, and with the magical traits of Cardelpion added just in case.

    But this has changed.

    I have no idea what’s coming.

    There are a few more fruits mixed in this way, but this was the only one that caught my eye.

    You can clearly see it by touching it yourself.

    This is a very good mix of vital factors.

    “Look forward to it. Because something amazing will come out.”

    “Hmm~ I’m curious if you say that.”

    Tot.

    Sigh~

    Shaella also stroked the small fruit with a faint smile, as if she was secretly excited.

    What kind of being will emerge?

    We’ll find out soon enough.

    *

    The car was resting in bed for a while.

    [Shinmok.]

    I could hear Messiah’s telepathy sounding nervous.

    Could it be that they foresaw an invasion again this time?

    I asked right away.

    [what’s the matter. Who else do you think will come?]

    [Oh, no. It’s already here.]

    [what?… .]

    What does this mean again?

    urged the guy.

    [Tell me in detail.]

    [During my patrol, I suddenly got a strange feeling, so I went to explore and found an unusual human girl. As soon as I met her, she immediately asked me if I knew where the city was.]

    An unusual girl?

    It seems like a new discarder appeared at the point where the conversation was going on… You asked where the city was?

    It feels like something is off.

    He immediately entered the body of the Messiah.

    Somewhere in the foggy forest.

    “Hey? Are you dumb? You’re asking where the city is. If I don’t say anything, I’ll kill you? Of course, I’ll kill you even if you don’t know! Hahahahahaha!!!!”

    It is indeed as the Messiah said.

    A strange girl was asking the Messiah where the city was.

    I quickly looked at him.

    Black hair and red eyes.

    He is smiling, but there is a hint of madness.

    Although she looks like a girl, she is powerful no matter how she looks.

    The divine elves and dryads, of course, are definitely strong enough for me to deal with.

    Maybe close to the ruler level… .

    Fortunately, Messiah, who knows how to read the flow, reported it to me as soon as he found it, and no dangerous situation has yet occurred.

    The important thing is from now on.

    There are about 5 elves following the Messiah in the back. If you want to save them and the Messiah, you must not provoke him.

    This is my territory, but there is no guarantee that you will be able to kill someone that strong even if you attack them with the main stem. Even if you kill them, there will definitely be victims on the elf side.

    You have to take your time.

    Fortunately, the guy is asking for information about the city. All you have to do is pretend to respond, bring him in, waste time, and subdue him with Shaella.

    blast furnace.

    “Why are you looking for a city? Did he come down to the dump on purpose?”

    That’s how I imagined it as the body of the Messiah.

    Ian said:

    It is said that slave hunters and rulers sometimes come down from high floors on purpose.

    I got a feeling.

    This guy is that case.

    Because the discarded person knows of the existence of the city and even emits a strong smell.

    I might be making a fuss because I lost my way, but I don’t think that’s the case because Messiah said he suddenly felt a flow.

    This guy was deliberately discarded.

    This is a person who wants to go to the city and get a position.

    so that.

    “Oh. Kihehehe… Feel so good!! I asked this without much expectation, but I didn’t expect it to be a guy from the city. So lead me to the city! I am the person who will become the new ruler of your city. If you help me, I’ll help you later too.”

    The guy let his guard down after hearing what he said.

    As expected, it was as expected.

    Besides, I want to become a ruler… .

    Of course we can’t leave it like that.

    Let the city’s power increase, then we’ll deal with him here.

    “Follow me. I’ll guide you.”

    “Well thought out. Fortunately, I don’t have to cut off my life for no reason. Kick… .”

    The girl was guided to the elf village.

    [Messiah. You keep guiding me. I will come out to meet you with Shaella.]

    [yes. Please leave it to me!]

    There is no need to hesitate.

    If you are a future enemy, subdue it now.

    “Shaella!”

    Therefore, I called in my strongest weapon, who was eating snacks alone at the table.

    *

    Outside of town.

    Near the stem barrier.

    “Anyway. You can’t do anything without me~”

    Shaella openly grinned.

    They followed me right away when I asked for help, but it’s still unlucky to be condescending.

    Nevertheless, it cannot be refuted.

    Because I desperately need his help.

    We walked through the foggy forest outside the village and talked as we made our way to the place where the Messiah was.

    “The enemy is probably close to the ruler level. I want you to subdue me.”

    “Good! however… Are you planning on doing it yourself? You wanted to become stronger.”

    “Because I’m not the fighting type.”

    “Oh? Now you admit it?”

    “I am the world tree. They don’t develop like humans. Just looking for a more efficient way.”

    “Looking for efficiency seems human, right?”

    “… anyway. You subdue me.”

    I have no intention of fighting directly.

    As I said, I am the world tree.

    Rather than gaining insight through direct combat, it is more helpful to spy on the elves’ training.

    I won’t take any chances.

    I won’t force the fight.

    We will utilize the power and resources we have.

    Because I’m not human.

    I have my own way.

    Growing the body.

    Building a stronger body.

    Crafting a suitable bioweapon.

    Share experiences with the sacred tree elves.

    All elves are my strength.

    I need to use mine properly first.

    There is no reason to throw away the above just because you want to become stronger. To become truly strong, you must give up your greed.

    “Onya~ Just trust the goddess.”

    “… If you go a little further this way, you will come out.”

    I ran through the forest with Shaella, hiding my presence.

    For your information, I am not an elf, but a human being. This is because even if you don’t fight, you can assist with hypnosis.

    Well, that probably won’t happen.

    *

    “Haaam~ How much longer do we have to go.”

    Miya placed both hands on her jet-black hair and yawned as if she were bored.

    “… Just go a little further.”

    The Messiah continued to act.

    Just like Muchan did, he lured her into the village by pretending to take her to the city.

    however.

    “But… weird. This is the first time I’ve heard of a slave hunter taking his men with him. Are they all slaves? No, come to think of it, they’re all elves, right?”

    “… … … .”

    Miya kept asking questions.

    I began to cast doubt on whether the words I had uttered without much thought were believable.

    Messiah quickly read the flow.

    What should I say?

    What kind of words should you filter out?

    We selected the answer sheet with the highest probability to determine which choice would stabilize the flow.

    “Cities each have their own unique characteristics. I’m just hunting along.”

    “I see… Do it. It’s hard to get the news from here even on high floors. What I heard must have been wrong. But you know.”

    “… … Why do you do that?”

    “Aren’t you too weak for that?”

    “… … … .”

    Sigh.

    A slightly crazy smile.

    The Messiah’s power is not foreknowledge.

    This observation is still just a probability.

    Even if you choose the safest path, this is a future that can easily change at any time.

    For example, even on a simple whim.

    “It’s not that good either. If you’re going to hang around with such disturbing people, I think it’s better to get rid of them.”

    “… That is my judgment.”

    “Kyahaha!!~ Overreacting. After all, it’s suspicious. Should I take a closer look here~”

    Lick.

    Miya took out a dagger and licked the blade.

    It was a very threatening, murderous smile.

    just as expected.

    “Ugh~ It’s a disappointing taste of iron. After all, it would be nice to have red sauce, right? I will kill those guys!!!”

    Shasak!!-

    Miya disappeared from her seat.

    She moved quickly in the blink of an eye, and without even being able to find her posture, thought, ‘Huh!?…’ … ‘ Street struck the high elves with a dagger.

    “Stop!!”

    Sigh!!

    grasp!!

    Fortunately, Messiah, who had read the critical situation, blocked the attack with his staff, but that was all.

    “Too slow!!”

    Sigh!!

    Damn it!!

    Countless dagger baptisms.

    Even the Messiah cannot avoid this.

    This is because the same flow was observed no matter where you escaped.

    However, it was not too late for the stem to sprout.

    Grumble!!

    Bah!!

    “Gyaa!!?”

    A stem suddenly rose up and surrounded the elves, and a stem hammer sent Miya flying.

    Tap!

    “Keu… what. You were surprised, right?”

    Even as she flew, she did a somersault and landed lightly on the ground.

    It looks like there is no damage.

    I just looked at the stem as if it was amusing.

    “Do you have an interesting talent?”

    Rather, I was excited.

    Actually, I was planning to hurt him a little just to show off, but the reaction was funnier than I thought.

    I decided to just cut off one arm and guide him again.

    but.

    “That’s not my talent.”

    “Huh?”

    The stem returned to the ground, and the Messiah with a leisurely smile answered.

    Unlike before, he was observing a flow that was safe no matter what he did.

    because.

    “You’re such a trash guy?”

    “I agree. Because you tried to touch my elf.”

    On top of a nearby tree.

    This is because the two strongest beings in the village have appeared.

    “Huh? Who are you guys again?”

    What follows is simple.

    “Let’s get started right away.”

    Tuk.

    Shaella, who had disappeared before she knew it, appeared behind Miya and had her hand on her shoulder.

    “Huh? When are you here-”

    Sigh!!

    “Pwaak!!!?!-”

    Wow!!!

    Paaaa!!!!!“

    The guy was thrown straight to the ground.

    No matter how strong a being is, they end up becoming ordinary in front of a stronger being.

    As expected, Muchan had no reason to step forward.

    I just thought this in peace.

    ‘How should I brainwash them? Is it possible to brainwash them?’ .’

    Several torture methods came to mind.

    It was a fate that was predestined from the moment Miya stepped into the elf realm.
