Chapter 108 World Tree Awakening (1)
Jae-Young accesses Arcadia.
What greeted him were Tan and El, who were thumping and fighting.
“Tonight's dinner is chicken! You goddamn chicken wings!”
“You are trembling. On the topic of bats.”
Roaring.
Kwajijik. Quaang.
The torch rising from El's body and the magic that tumbled from Tan's hand. Looking at the two fighting with a more serious face than ever before, Jaeyoung asked with a puzzled face.
“You guys... since when the hell have you been doing this?”
“uh? master!”
Tan, unaware of Jaeyoung's return, was engaged in a bloody battle with El. As soon as he saw Jaeyoung, he flew away with a radical reaction different from usual.
Fuck!
And the body headbutt with all its might. Tan's attack, full of rage, was quite fierce, even with the figure of a palm-sized familiar.
“Somebody said they were buying and running while I was away!”
[Fatal blow!]
[The strong shock causes temporary stun.]
Jaeyoung received damage that was not fatal, but was negligible. When Jaeyoung lay down on the floor because Tan came in without even blinking, L jumped at Tan again.
“Is this fucking bat not even thinking about what he did? You don't even remember destroying the altar in the Pagon Mine, do you?”
“You crazy bitch! What is the difference between destroying a sanctuary and destroying a shrine!”
“What is different? How on earth do demons have thick faces to be so shameless?”
Tan trembles as if he is genuinely angry at L's words. It looked like it would grab the scruff of the neck and collapse if stimulated even a little more, but there was no hesitation in El's vitriol.
“Didn't you tell me before? Are you saying that the victim is stupid and that the victim is cheap?”
Tan and L, who have always fed and fed each other. I don't know when, but what Tan teased L after feeding him candy. I couldn't stand the rage on El's horse for giving it back.
“Aaaaaaa! You fried chicken to chew on!”
Tan screamed and flapped his wings again as he leaped into the sky. I don't know when the hell they started repeating this, but the two of them started directing the scene they saw as soon as Jaeyoung logged on earlier.
“Haa.....”
Jaeyoung, who has long since given up the idea of drying. In the case of this case, again, it was not unrelated to him, so he lay still and looked up at the sky.
tweet.
In the middle of a forest where peaceful birdsong can be heard. A place full of greenery that makes you feel peaceful just by looking at it. The clear blue sky without a single cloud reflecting through the leaves was so beautiful and heart-purifying that it was hard to see in real life.
and that moment.
A message popped up in Jaeyoung's eyes.
[The World Tree requests a conversation with you.]
[Do you accept this? Y/N]
“...?”
A situation where you are enjoying the beauty and peace of nature while looking at the sky. Jaeyoung slightly frowned at the message that appeared as if he could not leave such a moment alone for even a moment. It's a game that doesn't seem to let go of doing nothing, even a little bit of peace. However, Jaeyoung sighed and put his hand to the YES window.
[I have accepted the conversation with the World Tree.]
[Channeling for conversation is activated.]
“What is this...?”
With the message that channeling is activated, Jaeyoung suddenly felt a great sense of drowsiness. The kind of drowsiness in which your eyelids, which you cannot resist no matter how much you try to resist, close themselves involuntarily. While Tan and L were fighting fiercely, Jaeyoung fell asleep. Lying in the middle of the forest with a peaceful face.
* * *
World Tree.
A gigantic tree that supports the entire world of Arcadia, and a being that has existed since the beginning of time called the mother of all life. However, after being mortally wounded by the ancient war between angels and demons, she fell into an endless sleep and finally regained consciousness.
[What the hell happened...?]
The magic of the demon realm that was firmly embedded in her body and tried to corrupt her existence itself. No matter how much he resisted, the dreadful sword, which had been firmly rooted like a parasite, escaped on its own, and the World Tree was finally able to contemplate and be conscious of the situation around it, freed from the corrupting energy that strangled his body and consciousness.
[Stop resisting and quietly die, you bastard bat.]
Tremendous divine aura dwells in Jaeyoung's body. And he resists it with all his might, but eventually meets a miserable end and shatters the god of death, Deathbringer. After observing all these scenes, the World Tree was able to understand and realize everything. That it was the human standing in front of her that had saved her from eternal sleep.
[Don't panic. I want to talk to you directly, but I don't have the strength yet, so I invited you to a dream space where I can talk. The body is still where it was.]
In the blink of an eye, the surrounding scenery itself is completely changed. Jaeyoung was embarrassed to see a young girl suddenly appearing in front of him with a friendly smile, but after hearing her words, he quickly understood the situation.
“Then you... no, are you the world tree?”
A girl with green hair. Fair-white skin without a single blemish, with deep eyes that embrace everything in the world, she answered Jae-young's question with a smile.
[Yes. There are various names that call me, but... Most living beings call me that way.]
World Tree. Yggdrasill. Tree of Sephiroth. Gaia.
Creatures of faith and mythology called her by their own names, but the titles they used to refer to her were the same.
The mother of all things, the giver of fertile land and abundance.
The last bastion that supports Arcadia.
Truly, if you are a being living in Arcadia, you should be thankful and praised. In particular, she was loved and cared for by the elves, but her influence was so strong that there was not a single creature that her presence did not affect.
[First of all... I think I should say thank you first. Thanks to that, I was able to escape from that nasty bastard.]
The world tree expresses its gratitude. A title shone brilliantly above Jaeyoung's head, who stood awkwardly in front of her.
[Title Guardian of the World Tree]
The effort to get the elves' hearts back and El's vengeful spirit to feed Tan properly at this moment were mixed together. But whatever it was, it was true that he was able to be freed thanks to Jaeyoung, so the world tree was looking at him with a favorable gaze.
“So... can you tell me why you called me?”
The world tree called Jae-young directly to talk to him. When Jae-young, who was forcibly summoned into her dream, asked with a curious face, she said with her eyes shining.
[ah. I wanted to say thank you, but I called because I was really curious.]
“Are you curious...?”
A world tree that has questions. She was looking into Jaeyoung's eyes, bringing her face close enough that Jaeyoung's breath could reach.
Snow so deep you can't see the end. The world tree muttered with a confused expression on its emerald-colored eyes.
[As expected... I can't see anything. I thought it was unusual because the heads of the heaven and demon worlds were attached, but... It's more than I thought...] The
World Tree mumbles an incomprehensible story. And she looked at Jaeyoung again with a really serious face and asked.
[What is your true identity? How on earth do you have the power to twist the world when you are a mere human, not an angel or a demon, not a spirit or even a dragon?] The
World Tree asked what it really was. Hearing that, Jaeyoung could immediately realize why she wanted to call him out and have a conversation.
Plausibility.
The power to distort the given setting according to cause and effect and to do things that go against the mission. Asked by the World Tree, who noticed the existence of the power that Tan and El were fighting every day to rip off more of it. To her, Jaeyoung sighed and had to talk for a long time.
[Hmm... So you're saying that you're periodically given tasks like a mission, and after you've done them, you're given probability as a reward?] “Yes.
”
Probability that can be obtained through the mission system. At Jaeyoung's words, the world tree asked again.
[Then who gives the mission?]
“I don’t know about that...?”
The amount of probability was so great that El and Tan would salivate and covet it. Since it is given as a reward in the game system, he had never thought deeply about this issue. Of course, I thought I wanted to see the faces of the crazy developers' children while watching the missions given to him from time to time. However, at his words, the World Tree muttered with a more serious face.
[I wouldn't be able to figure it out with a normal level of divinity... Then I can't believe it...] The
World Tree frowned and talked to himself about something meaningful. Jaeyoung, who was watching her like that, tilted his head and asked.
“Why are you like that? Is there any problem?”
[No... It's nothing. Rather, I should repay you for helping me.]
The world tree hurriedly changed the topic of conversation and handed Jaeyoung a small golden fruit. Jaeyoung received it without thinking and looked around and asked.
“Fruit?”
[It's a precious item, so keep it and use it when you really need it.]
“Well... thank you.”
Jae-young received the golden fruit thinking it was a reward for the quest. As he put it in his pocket, Gye-soo looked at Jae-young with a strange expression and asked.
[I heard the story of the elves and dwarves. I tried to reconcile those children.]
“Oh, is that it? To be honest, it's a little hard to say this, but neither of them was easy.”
A collaboration between racial supremacy and appearance supremacy. Although the two of them were forced to start interacting again, basically, their personalities had deteriorated, so it wouldn't be strange if a war broke out naturally if left alone. Jae-young's honest impression was that this time, he saw that he had a sharp angle to fight with humans, not just the two of them.
And at Jaeyoung's words, the world tree nodded with a strangely bitter smile.
[It's my sore fingers. It's a problem that can be understood and passed on.]
Tribes for whom demeaning based on height, appearance, and race is as commonplace as breathing. In fact, it was urgent to change the basic values, not just a little bit, but Jae-young sighed, thinking that he was spoiled by the mind of the World Tree that was complacent.
“Well... you know, this time you'll live well. Anyway, if you've said everything, I'm going to go back...”
Jae-young is worried about what Tan and L are doing outside again. In addition, Jaeyoung tried to go back quickly because of the strange ominous feeling of the world tree in the form of this green girl. But she looked at him with a quiet expectant gaze and asked.
[I'm sorry, but can I ask for one more request?]
Originally, the World Tree would have had to fight endlessly with the Deathbringer, who tried to corrupt her existence itself in an eternal sleep with no promise. When she wakes up and starts working, a huge narrative hidden in Arcadia begins to move.
[warning. Trigger detection of mythical main scenario.]
[Act. 25 Pangaea-related quest creation.]
