Chapter 327 Yggdra ?
Part 1
Serene opens her eyes wide at Liz’s overly abusive words.
She doesn’t seem to be intimidated, but she has an unusual reaction. She may have never left Yggdra, so she may not be used to talking to Hunters.
Or rather, Liz………… You just want to go to the Treasure Shrine, don’t you?
Well, she hasn’t been to a High-Level Treasure Shrine lately…… Or rather, she has already conquered most of the Treasure Shrines around the Imperial Capital, so for Liz, who loves the unknown, this incident might have been a godsend.
“………… Do you understand? The current area around the World Tree is really dangerous. The source of Mana Materials is the same as outside, but the density is different. Yggdra is the center of the world, and the Monsters that manifest there are no longer in the realm of simple Monsters.” (Serene)
“What does it matter? You won’t know unless you fight them!? How can you be a Hunter if you’re afraid of powerful enemies! Riiight, Cry-chan?” (Liz)
Liz turns to me and asks for my agreement.
Her light pink eyes sparkle with vitality and her face is faintly flushed. This is 20% irritation and 80% joy, riiight.
………… For the time being, even if I am unwilling but give in to let you fight, our goal is, in the end, to lift Luke’s curse. I just want you to remember that.
Serene couldn’t hide her bewilderment, as if she had never been threatened by someone grabbing her by the collar. There, Lapis, who is crossing her arms and making a difficult face, snorts and says.
“Hmph………… Barbaric, as usual. However??Those with power have a duty to exercise it, huh. It is also in line with our pride as “Spirit People (Noble)”. ?Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)?, very well.? I will follow you this time.” (Lapis)
“Ah………… Yes……” (Cry)
I didn’t say anything, you know.
However, thinking about it calmly, this might be the surest way to save Luke. And it is not like we must capture the Treasure Shrine that has manifested.
If what Serene said is true, all we need to lift Luke’s curse is a ?Place?.
We can just secretly sneak up to the World Tree, and if there is a Phantom, we can have everyone deal with it and use that opportunity to quickly lift the curse.
To begin with, finding a solution to the main issue is impossible. As expected, there is nothing we can do about the manifestation of a Treasure Shrine.
I have indeed witnessed the birth of a Treasure Shrine, but I have never witnessed the disappearance of a Treasure Shrine. A Treasure Shrine is not something that can be destroyed by burning it down……
“We-Well, it does look like we need to go below the World Tree to lift Luke’s curse……” (Cry)
Seeing me reluctantly complying, Serene shrugs her shoulders in exasperation.
“……………… Apparently, it is true that humans are self-confident. Or should I call you a daredevil??” (Serene)
You are absolutely right. Hunters think too little about their own life. I want to withdraw inside Mimic-kun.
“The Mana Materials have already reached saturation and doomsday is approaching. The Mana Materials are not limited to the vicinity of the World Tree, but it has also invaded the entire forest, even affecting the Drifting Road of the Divine Tree that we created. The number of Monsters that have been spawned is probably not just a thousand or ten thousand. The area around the World Tree is already an uncharted territory that cannot even be approached. The Spirits who built and protected Yggdra together with us have already been mostly transformed??Our war efforts were of no avail. Knowing this fact, are you still willing to take up the challenge for the sake of your friend?” (Serene)
Without noticing my complete reticence of it, Serene reconfirms my intention in a serious voice.
………… What is that information just now, you said it way too late. After all, it would be faster to find a way to lift the curse outside??But even if I stop, Liz and the others will not stop.
Normally, this would be a scene where Luke would go out of control and Liz would reprimand him, but because Luke is not there, Liz is going out of control. And someone able to stop Liz does not exist.
When doing my best to think about how to gently refuse her, Sytry, who has been silent up until now, raises her right hand.
“Question………… I have one question for you…… Serene-san.” (Sytry)
“What might it be?” (Serene)
Serene looks at Sytry. Her face is like a doll. Sytry smiles cheerfully, puts her hands together, and says.
“The properties of Mana Material are immutable. Mana Material flows in the veins that run through the ground, and where there is power, Treasure Shrines, Monsters??And Phantoms are born. This has not changed since ancient times. Moreover, from what I heard??Whether it is to let go of your friends or prepare for war, the people of Yggdra seemed to have accurately grasped the problems that the World Tree is facing and the possible future.” (Sytry)
A well-reasoned narrative. Indeed, it is as she says.
I didn’t notice it at all, but Serene and the others let their friends go before Shero’s curse got out of control??So at least a thousand years had passed.
Serene’s eyes widen for a moment as if she has been struck dumb, but she quickly nods her head as if she has given up.
“………… That is right. We knew the doom that the World Tree was destined to follow. And we were working to prevent it. In fact, it would have at least ?Prolonged? its life. However, the increase in power far exceeded our imagination.” (Serene)
“……………… I see. You have it hard.” (Cry)
“………… Yowaningen, you’re so light-minded, desu.” (Kruz)
Even though you knew it, you couldn’t do anything about it, huh…… Well, these things happen.
It is no wonder I am light-minded. I am not a party involved in this incident.
TL notes:
Thanks for reading!
So Cry witnesses the birth of a Treasure Shrine, and now he is going to make one disappear?
What next a transforming Treasure Shrine? The fusion of multiple Treasure Shrine!?
But Cry is being so chill, does he understand that he is going to the same Treasure Shrine that is inside the World Tree?
No, what a stupid question, of course, he is chill about it, Master~ is god!
Tchao à plus!
