After discussing it with Shiki, I was first asked to go to the white room.

Shiki parties with Oler and asks him to release the level-up suppression.

Mr. Oller said he has experience with oak vii and octave.

It is said to be the experience gained from defeating Kobold and others during the defensive battle in the land.

After all, she too, like Lucia, must have mastered advanced techniques to protect herself.

In conclusion, Mr. Oller was able to level up safely.

I have a lot of feelings about what you were talking about with Shiki.

"Mm-hmm. Belly black and belly black combined to brew a very dos black air on this occasion"

"Even if you think about it, stop whining about what's going to be such a diplomatic issue"

Beware of Mia today.

I really thought the same thing!

Note that the girl who was listening to it...... but the one who said she was a Lucian samurai was laughing bitterly.

I think it's a lot of recovery in this short time, even though I magically healed my spirit, considering the light was out of my eyes when I first met him.

I just want to see Lucia again later.

According to Mr. Oler, there were seventeen survivors of Lucian sisters, that is, candidates for 'element', including one who was imprisoned elsewhere.

All of them said they would cooperate with the Marebito Taru Group.

When she told me that, Shiki next door was very impressed.

"Shiki, tell me about the specific deal later..."

"Yeah, later."

"This one's cool, white eyes."

Mia squeaks blush.

Don't make fun of Shiki naturally...

I don't know what to say.

"Cuz. Let's leave this sweep to the others and return to the world tree once and for all."

"Fine... do you want Lucia to stay here?

"Politically, Lucia has always been unfavourable to use underground trees."

I shifted my gaze to Oler.

Mr. Oller was laughing bitterly.

Seeing it this way, the smile looks a lot like Lucia.

"Wouldn't that child want himself to be the pillar of the people?

"How do you know that? Lucia did say something similar."

"Considering her attitude as much as just now and more importantly that she calls herself Lucia,"

Speaking of which, does the name Lucia make sense?

Uh, just... yeah, you mean the one who ends it?

Uh, I guess it's a name that's not really appropriate as a ruler.

"Lord of Malevito. Regards, Lucia. It was the most outstanding of us, but at the same time the most lonely of hearts."

"Uh... yes. I've been entrusted."

Mr. Oller offers me his right hand.

"Shake hands, please. I heard this is a testament to your covenant."

"Yeah, well, that's right"

I saw Shiki-san.

I was laughing.

Yeah, you just taught me that in the white room.

I shook Mr. Oller's hand.

It was a much stronger hand than I thought.

"The underground witch who will replace Lucia will be sent immediately. Kaz-kun, before that, me and Leanne, and the meeting."

"Uh, roger. Yeah, we won to win, but we need to sort things out."

We decided to share quickly.

Mia once, back between the underground trees, joins Occasion and Lucia. After Lucia's hand is free, she will return to the World Tree.

Me, Alice, and Shiki will go back to the World Tree and report directly to Leanne.

"See you, Mia. I'm begging you."

I'll take care of it.

Mia imitated the salute and dropped us off.

Internal and external enemies are generally swept away, but this is not a reassuring situation.

Leaving Mia on this side is a precaution.

Uh, because, hey.

Don't you happen to be alone watching or something...

Fortunately, there was no raid until we returned to the World Tree.

On the road, subtle to Alice, explain what happened with Lucia.

Alice laughed and said, "I forgive you."

"If you don't report it properly, I might have snapped a little bit."

"It's just a snake."

"But Mr. Kaz, even when you happened to be, you just told me"

Oh, speaking of which, I guess I did.

But at that time, there was really a lot going on.

This time... this time, a lot has happened...

Unexpectedly, it becomes a distant eye.

I've been caught dying.

Still, I was able to live and fulfill my purpose, undoubtedly because of Lucia's devotion.

"Well, I guess it's okay."

Shiki looked back, supposedly standing ear to ear as she walked a while back.

For some reason, he looks very happy.

"As far as I'm concerned, I almost wanted that princess caged."

"That's what you thought!

Warp a few times in the usual procedure and we'll get to Mr. Lene's house.

Despite the organization's leaders, it is usually quiet around this tree in her office.

But now, one of them was busy walking in and out, surrounded by hustle and noise.

Uh, is something wrong?

A soldier on the lookout notices us and tells Mr. Lene to come.

I got permission and went into a tree.

Around Mr. Lene, there was a gathering of several men in armor.

The age group is high and the equipment is visible.

Probably a general or one of those statuses.

And when the executives of the people of light saw us that came in, they were angry.

Mr. Lene ordered me to pay one.

The general-like ones got a slightly dissatisfied look, but soon they left the tree.

"What happened?"

On our behalf, Shiki visited us directly.

I guess I decided that it's not like I'm having a semblance of interaction.

Mr. Lene's face, lit by the orange magic lighting on the wall, seemed slightly bluer.

"A part of the world tree is broken."

Mr. Leanne said, terminally.

He pretends to be calm, but his voice is shaking slightly.

"An army of monsters is letting us attack just outside the world tree. We have also confirmed the appearance of the Four Heavens."

That was the worst report I've heard today.

The world tree was perfectly connected, and I can't help it.

The enemy was better at one, I guess.

The strength and cunning of the monsters are best known to us.

Of the junctions covering the world tree, three holes were created.

The time taken to repair it is only five minutes.

But in the meantime, more than a thousand monsters broke into the interior.

"A thousand...? Besides, even the Four Heavens"

I spin words like a wheezer.

My throat dried to a crisp.

Grab a fist.

"Four Heavenly Kings... the same class of enemies as Zagar Lazhner..."

What I recall is the morning battle against Zagara Sninner.

I can say I was lucky enough to get away with wrapping my tail around it.

The problem is that this time, there is no such thing as an option to escape.

Five hubs of humanity with wedges.

Of the wedges protecting the continent, two were already lost.

When a monster takes the wedge of a world tree, the prophecy of the demise of the continent is fulfilled.

There is no escape for mankind, for us.

There is no way to survive except to fight to the last one to protect the world tree.

But we're dealing with such a monster...

"Mr. Cuz......"

Alice looks up at me anxiously.

I can't speak to her. [M]

"Kazu-kun"

When I realized, Shiki lay her hands on mine.

Shiki's hands are shaking in small pieces.

Are you so afraid to touch me?

And yet, still, will you touch me?

I raise my face and look at Shiki.

The talented lady who led the Yukan group laughed invincibly.

"You don't have to rush to a conclusion. Fortunately, here we are. There's also Leanne. Seniors will be back soon. Let's work out an operation."

Shiki takes me to Leanne, pulling my hand to stand up.

As usual, I sat in the car seat.

Mr. Lene's favorite woman brought me tea as she tingled her dog ears.

Drink tea.

I was limp to my surprise.

A little sweet liquid slips through my throat.

"It uses spiritual magic to cool it down."

Mr. Lene smiles.

She, too, wanted to calm down or drank her tea in one breath.

Both Shiki and Alice had tea in silence.

Everyone exhales.

Well, and.

"First, can you tell me about the Four Heavenly Kings that have broken in"

Shiki said.

"Whatever we do, we need to know about the enemy."

"Right. Let's talk first, about Aga Sue, King of Plants, the One of the Four Heavens"

Speaking of which, I didn't even hear your name.

Aga Sue.

Is that the most powerful monster to strike a world tree?
