YM778.TV Chapter 265
Translator: Tseirp
After the Golden Tree’s roots were exposed — as expected, we could not extract the roots that had grown into the bedrock and had to cut them off so I treated the Golden Tree with the Plant Healing skill before everyone tied a rope around it and made it lay on its side before we pushed about half of it into My World .
All right, we were done on this side .
“Everyone, we’ll be moving over!”
Everyone entered My World .
The Golden Tree was safely loaded onto the cart specially built by Pionia .
It was amazing how it wouldn’t break even after such a large tree was loaded onto it .
“This is our new land — My World huh?”
“So beautiful — As if it is meant for Gods to live in . ”
The Dark-Elves were all praising My World after seeing it but Rarael rebuked them .
“Everyone, we are not done yet! We still have to replant the Golden Tree . Everyone, pull the cart . ”
“”””Yes!””””
After that, not only the Dark-Elves but I, Pionia, Neete, Sheena No . 3, as well as Fuyun and desert runner, literally everybody pulled the cart with the Golden Tree to the chosen replanting site .
I should have opened the door where we planned to plant the Golden Tree .
But everyone was overjoyed when we reached the chosen site, pulled the Golden Tree upright with the rope and finished replanting it .
“Are you really sure about this, Master?”
“It’s all right . As long as the Dark-Elves do not leave this place, the secret about my Jobless skill will not be leaked to the outside world . ”
“That’s not my point, the Dark-Elf is a race that lives to protect the Golden Tree, right? Don’t they now have a definite way of protecting the Golden Tree?”
“A definite way to protect the Golden Tree?”
“By killing Master . As long as Master is no longer alive, nobody else will be able to connect this world to the outside world . Doing so will promise the eternal well-being of the Golden Tree and this world . ”
” ……… No, that isn’t likely to happen . ”
“You didn’t think about it, right?”
Well, it’ll probably be fine .
The Dark-Elves all lined up in front of me as I thought that .
Seeing close to 50 beautiful women line up together was refreshing but recalling what Pionia said caused a slight tinge of fear .
Then, all the Dark-Elves knelt to the ground on one knee and lowered their heads .
” — We 47 Dark-Elves offer our lives and bodies along with the Golden Tree to Ichinojo-sama . ”
【Title: Dark Elf Leader acquired】
【Title Job: Elf Archer unlocked】
Was it all right for me to receive the Elf Archer job even though I was neither a Dark-Elf nor an Elf?
Well, in either case, it meant that I didn’t have to worry about the Dark-Elves revolting .
I didn’t plan to rule them but the title won’t lie .
I entrusted Pionia to the development of the area around the Golden Tree and the construction of tree houses before Rarael and I went to the log house where Shumei was waiting .
Even though I asked her to wait inside, she was waiting outside the log house .
“Ichinojo-sama!”
“Shumei, does this satisfy the completion of the mission to save the Dark-Elves?”
“Yes, thank you very much . ”
It was a mission complete .
The chain of event was tiring but now that there were Dark-Elf residents in this world, on the off-chance that I am no longer around, Pionia and Neete won’t have to experience not being able to move due to a lack of magical power .
Nevertheless, Neete commented that my magical power was delicious so I probably still won’t be able to avoid providing MP to them .
“By the way, Shumei and Rarael . I would like to ask you two about the Demon Lord . Do the both of you know Famiris‧Raritei?”
“I’ll start . Do you know the story about the Dark-Elves signing an agreement with the Demon Lord?”
I nodded without a word .
I heard about it from the pirates .
“The Demon Lord visited the Great Forest 15 years ago . Her request was not for the Dark-Elves to join her side . She wanted us to keep a certain treasure in the unlikely event that she dies . She offered to create the barrier to obstruct the surroundings of the cave where the Golden Tree grew from view on the condition that we help her with that . ”
“So the Demon Lord created that barrier . By the way, what was the treasure?”
“It’s this ―”
Rarael took out a tiny bead .
It was about the size of a BB pellet .
“Is this ― perhaps a medicine?”
“Yes, it seems to be a kind of knowledge medicine . Demon Lord Famiris‧Raritei seemed to have sealed certain knowledge within this medicine and entrusted it to us . ”
“You don’t know what knowledge it is?”
Rarael shook her head to my question .
A sealed memory of Famiris . I’m curious .
“Then how about Shumei? Was this what you were about to talk about regarding Demon Lord Famiris‧Raritei?”
“I do not know much . She suddenly appeared before my father . And claimed that she was the reincarnation of the Demon Lord . ”
“Reincarnation of the Demon Lord!? What did she look like!?”
“She looked like a girl . She was wearing unusually-colored clothes and her hair was tied up to the left and right in such a fashion . ”
She made a twin-tail shape with both her hands .
That was definitely Miri .
So Miri visited this country?
“What did she say!?”
“To not let the Dark-Elves be destroyed . She said that if the Golden Tree was lost from this world, a terrifying monster will resurrect from the desert . ”
“Terrifying monster? What kind of terrifying monster? Does Rarael know?”
Rarael shook her head to my query .
” ― Master, may I have a word?”
“What is it?”
“There is an earth cleansing effect surrounding the Golden Tree . It is possible that the Golden Tree was used to seal an evil being . ”
“I see . In other words, it’s good that we protected the Golden Tree ― Eh?”
Wait a minute .
If the Golden Tree is lost from the world?
In other words ―
“Doesn’t that mean it is problematic since the Golden Tree was moved to My World?”
Neete ran over just as I was speaking .
“Master, the situation outside is strange . ”
” ― !?”
I had left the door to My World open .
I closed the door that was currently open and opened the door from our location .
Then, I looked outside the door .
“The Forest is burning ― no way? Even though the water had washed away all the oil . Furthermore, the forest caught fire in such a short time span ― ”
The Dark-Elves were saddened but they said that they would give up on the Great Forest since the Golden Tree has been moved .
But it was sad to see a forest on fire .
“Master, isn’t it weird?”
“Weird?”
“If they had such an easy method of burning the forest, why would they need to gather oil?”
That was true .
” ― Or perhaps!?”
I carried Neete on my back and jumped .
It was too late to douse the fire with Water Magic so I secured the minimum amount of space I needed to move through the forest using Petite Water and exited the forest .
“The army is fighting!”
They were fighting against a small fireball in the air .
Just what kind of fireball would float in the air during the day?
Would Light Magic be effective if it was a ghost? I should have trained the Ghost Buster job if I knew this would happen .
“That’s a spirit . ”
“Spirit!? Spirit as in those spirits?”
“Yes . A spirit that governs the natural world ― a Fire Spirit”
Neete muttered and had a look of disbelief as if she had seen a ghost .
