Someday Will I Be The Greatest Alchemist?

Chapter 138: One Great Spirit After The Other

Chapter 138: One Great Spirit After The Other

Since Laeva and I built the smithing workshop that Undine requested, the workshop and furnace had already been prepared.

A few days after the workshop was built, an unusual phenomenon happened to the Spirit Tree.

A significant presence travelled to the Spirit Tree, and a beautiful woman came out from its thick trunk.

Wearing a tawny dress with leaves twined around, the long vibrant green haired beautiful woman, who appears to be the same age as Undine, was clearly not a person.

?My, if it isn’t Dryas. There is no need to worry, she is the Tree Spirit Dryas. Has it been hundreds of years since we’ve met outside of the Spirit World, I wonder.?

When we were being cautious of the woman who came out of the Spirit Tree, Undine appeared and informed us of who the woman was.

The Great Tree Spirit Dryas. Undine said that since the Spirit Tree was in this land, if she could manifest, it wouldn’t be strange for the next to manifest to be Dryas.

?Uuunngghh, ahhhh~ it’s been a while since I manifested~?

Dryas stretched and smiled at us. Dyras gives the impression of a sexy oneesan.

?Dryas, it’s been a long time.?

?Oh, Undine, has it been hundreds of years? It hasn’t been a long time. Still, for our first manifestation in a while to not be in the land governed by the elves, it’s quite ironic, isn’t it??

?Indeed, the elves, who live by borrowing the power of the spirits, are lessening their show of respect for the Spirits, after all.?

?Takumi-chan right? Thank you for nurturing the Spirit Tree.?

?N-no, I only did what I could.?

Dyras who had been talking to Undine thanked me.

This place, where the undead once strode, is now a carpet of greenery with varicolored blooming flowers, and a small copse made up of all kinds of trees we planted across the spring was completed too.

As this land seemed to have become an environment Dryas found easy to manifest in, Dryas and Undine said it was only a matter of time before the Great Wind Spirit Sylph, who was the origin of Sophia’s family name, to manifest.

That fact became a reality two days after Dryas appeared.

When Titan and I were asked by Undine to dig around the sanctuary to enclose it, a gentle wind swirled softly, blowing petals up, and from inside that, a beautiful floating girl who appeared to be in her mid-teens with seemingly transparent light blue hair fluttering came into view.

?Uun! Sylph has arriiiiiiived! ?

The girl’s energetic voice echoed.

?Really, calm yourself a little, Sylph.?

?Yeah~ You don’t settle no matter how much time passes~?

There, Undine and Dryas appeared, chiding Sylph.

We could do nothing but be flabbergasted as we couldn’t follow the situation. Nevertheless, only Sophia was deeply moved, going down on her knees and offering a prayer.

?What is this! Isn’t this place amazing!? Mmmm, pleasant wind blows!?

?It’s good land, isn’t it? The water is clean too.?

?Oh, flowers and all kinds of trees grow healthy too.?

?If I’m here with Undine and Dryas, it means it’s going to be a sanctuary soon!?

The Great Wind Spirit called Sylph noticed Sophia on her knees offering a prayer to her.

?Oh, you are……………, mhmm mhmm, ah? the Sylphide family’s daughter. I knew there were elves who used my name as their family name.?

Did Sylph hear the story from the Lesser and Intermediate Wind Spirits around? Sylph seemed to know about Sophia’s family.

?It is a great honor to meet you for the first time. My name is Sophia, the eldest daughter of the Sylphide family.?

?Right, you’re called Sophia. You don’t have to be that formal.?

Sylph cheerfully started conversing with the nervous Sophia. She really gives the impression of a lively girl, and she talks to Sophia as if she were coming across a friend.

I, who was still watching the scene blankly, was instructed by Undine to continue digging around.

?Hey hey Takumi, I will make a water canal after you dig around, so finish it quickly.?

?That’s right~ Takumi-chan. When the water canal is complete, the greenery will extend to the surrounding land, you know.?

?………… yes, I understand.?

It seems this ditch will become a water canal. I was told that the canal water would continue to maintain its state without stagnation with Undine’s powers, and the greenery around the canal would spread.

The range of the Holy Barrier has already been greatly expanded, with each expansion adding more magic devices. Concealer MD and Perception Inhibitor MD were the same. Nevertheless, when it officially becomes a sanctuary, even without the magic devices, it seems it would become a similar range to the current extensive range of the Holy Barrier, and Undine and Dryas want to bring it to that state quick.

Initially, it was supposed to be a small range with the Spirit Tree at its center, and yet before we knew it, it had become something big. It’s in the savage lands so there’s no one there, but it was already too much for 4 Stone Golems to defend. Though Undine said that this was not at all a problem.

?There are 3 Great Spirits here, it will be alright even if a swarm of dragons come.?

And both Sylph and Dryas agreed. Would this be called the fearsome might of the Great Spirits?

With the Spirit Tree at its heart, the land within was fencing in a 500 meter boundary by a water canal on one side, and a prairie of greens was starting to spread out on the other side.

One day, a short grandpa appeared beside the Spirit Tree.

?Ho ho ho, what comfortable land. It pleases me. I will dwell here as well.?

Saying so, the grandpa who arbitrarily began living in the house of stone we made was, according to Undine, the Great Earth Spirit Gnome.

And immediately following Gnome’s arrival, a fire lizard manifested in the furnace of the smithing workshop.

?The fire is so small. You guys, use fire more!?

The fire lizard who said such to us was the Great Fire Spirit Salamander.

With the four elements, Fire, Water, Wind, Earth, as well as Tree, 5 Great Spirits are present.

Beginning with Undine, everyone gathered at the Spirit Tree and lined up to form a pentagram with the Spirit Tree at its center.

The next instant, Undine and the Great Spirits’ magic power swelled, and I witnessed the land be covered in sacred energy.

According to Undine, this was the first time in 1000 years that a sanctuary was formed in this world.
