Dragon Poor

The spirits, who would normally yell out to be summoned more often, didn't say what the hell was in English.

“You guys…. ”

Only Attiya answered Kim Sun-hyuk, who did not know what was going on in English.

‘Sir, please wait a moment. ’

Somehow, unlike his usual appearance, he looked sad and desperate. I couldn't refuse the request.

“Okay, I'll explain later. ”

"Thank you, my lord. ’

Athiya smiled awkwardly and turned to the Mother Tree again.

Kim Sun-hyuk's heart was complicated to look at spirits in turn. It was strange that the spirits were always looking only at themselves, so I could feel the unknown Seoul.

However, the attitude of the spirits was too serious to use as an excuse to become one.

“Hmm…. ”

He decided to keep his mouth shut and watch the situation.

* *

[Poor children of the wind and water. You are not abandoned.]

‘It is better for God to feel our desperation to preserve Himself through contracts, even in the terrible pain of becoming faint. ’

The spirit of the wind, which was always smiling and fluttering like the spring wind, was not there when I treated the owner. She received the words of Mother's tree with a cold attitude, even as if it were a cold winter blade.

[I wonder how long you must have felt the thrill and pain. Horrible and frightening days I could never have imagined.]

The Mother Tree was not angry with the cold spirits. Rather, he gave them a more gracious voice.

[Nevertheless, I say again, they did not abandon you.]

‘Then why didn't they reveal themselves when they were in pain and wandering around?' ’

The answers were the water spirits Ichram and Izihar. The spirits' bodies made of transparent water shook and fluttered as if they were excrements.

No, no, no. They're not invisible.]

Scattered winds blow. The forest in the middle of the summer that was full of life cried as if it were a lonely sound in the fall.

[They were unable to show themselves.]

And the voice of the Mother Tree was as deep as the air of the shifting forest.

‘Why…. ’

In Atiya's question, the Mother Tree answered.

[They're already extinct.]

* *

As Sun Hyuk Kim, I couldn't understand what the Mother Tree and spirits were talking about.

If I had known this, I'd have regretted leaving the Talking Dragon in Astoria because it was annoying.

What the hell is going on?

It was full of unknowns as to who "they" were, and what it meant when the spirits were abandoned.

If there was one thing he could have guessed, it would have been very important to Attya and the spirits what the Mother Tree said.

Otherwise, the spirits wouldn't have jumped all over the place if they heard they were gone.

"No way! If so, how could we not know that? ’

Attiya swirled around like a storm, and the water spirits stood up like angry waves and shouted at the giant as if they were about to be shot out of the sky.

[I had no idea.]

The wind of Attya's blade, which was fiercer than the storm, and the wrath of the water spirits, which was rougher than the tide, was nothing in front of Mother's tree.

The disaster caused by the spirits subsided like a lie, not even a tiny whip in the forest.

[They are gone, but their origin still exists in the world.]

The Mother Tree silenced the spirits' anger as if nothing had happened.

[And that source is their legacy that you should inherit here today.]

A radiant light appeared from the root crevice at the lowest point of the tree that touched the sky in fear of the end of Mother's words.

[Children, this is your mother.]

When the spirits, including Attiya, were completely immersed in the swarm of light, the voice of the Mother Tree was heard again.

[This is your king's legacy.]

Kim Sun-hyuk was frightened.

It is because I have only now known who "they" were that Mother's tree talked about.

[The water and the spirit king of the wind that had not existed for a thousand years will be reborn on this earth.]]

Surprisingly, the spiritual kings were the ones who said that Mother's tree had disappeared.

“What the hell is going on...? ”

He gave a frozen voice and looked at the Mother's tree alternately with the spirits caught in the light.

* *

When the light disappears again and the forest finds its original shape, the spirits are no longer visible.

[Don't worry. They just went back to the Spirit Realm for a while.]

Kim Sun-hyuk asked with a soft voice.

“So what happens to them now? ”

It was clear that the water and wind spirits had recovered something that had been lost.

“Are they going to become Spirit Kings now? ”

[We don't know for now. If they were enough vessels to be king, one of them would be reborn as king, otherwise a new being would be born and made king.]

He did not disappoint, though he had hoped against his expectations.

[But even if they are not the king's vessel, they will change in some way. They are the first spirits to encounter a source that has been reclaimed in 1,000 years.]

Given the situation, contact with what appears to be the source has benefited the spirits, but it doesn't seem to be harmful.

That's why Sun Hyuk Kim was already looking forward to seeing Attiya and the water spirits returning.

“Huh?"

Kim Sun-hyuk, who held his fist in tight expectations, suddenly opened his eyes after realizing that there was a spirit that had not yet disappeared, unlike other spirits.

“Nudar?”

Nudar. He is there in the same shape as when the first Supreme Spirit of the unspoken land appeared.

However, as opposed to his usual arrogance, he looked extremely polite and godly.

“Ah…. ”

Kim Sun-hyuk gave out an elastic thought as he went through his head for a moment.

The other spirits returned to the spirit system after receiving the lost king's legacy. And only the spirit of the earth remained and showed tremendous reverence towards the Mother Tree.

“Are you…. ”

It was a question I never would have thought of if it were another position. However, his question became more certain because he had already mentioned the two Spirit Kings.

[Your guess is not wrong.]

And his expectations were right.

[I am the Mother of the West, the King of all things on earth.]

The Mother Tree of the West, which the Queisha worship,

[Monarch of the Earth.]

He was the Spirit King of the Earth.

* *

[Now I can barely keep my promise to them, thanks to you, too.]

The voice of the Mother Tree was as bold as putting down a heavy burden.

“What the hell happened?" ”

However, apart from the refinement of the Mother's tree, Kim Sun-hyuk came up with even more questions.

I had no idea what caused the powerful Spirit Kings to perish, not one, but both at once.

[This is my mother's memory, not mine.]

The weight of the question was much heavier than he thought. The voice of Mother's tree, which had been hollowed out for a while, was so heavy that it sank again.

[It is a story of despair and darkness that even the most powerful and powerful monarchs could not control.]

Kim Sun-hyuk became courageous and had tremendous growth, but he dared not reach the power of the Mother Tree.

She is powerful enough to defend her forest in the midst of a mighty Demon King's domain, which has been given a fragment of chaos, but she is afraid of only thinking about the past.

[In a terrible time, too many factions were extinct or extinct because of the long war, and more lives were lost and destroyed.]

For some reason, the Mother Tree did not tell me in detail about the war that was at that time. He just blurted out how many people had died and how many people had suffered.

[Many mothers were destroyed, and the Mother of the Earth was one of them. Unlike Mother, who passed on the source of the clans leaving behind a country that was only a small and young plant, the Mother of Wind and Water couldn't deliver the source to my clan.]

Surprisingly, she said, not just the Spirit King of Wind and Water was extinct. Even the spiritual king of the land was destroyed by the war.

Kim Sun-hyuk blubbered unnoticed at the horror of the war when even the great spiritual kings were forced to die.

[But they were luckier. Unlike the Mother of Water and Wind who entrusted it to others in the future, it was a true dark age in the world where even the fallen tribes could not be counted.]

The Mother Tree said that more people and monks were more devastated than spirits.

[Unfortunately, most of those who disappeared were the bravest and most good.]

Mother's tree was truly grieving as she spoke of good and righteous beings who had suffered even more damage as they fought the darkness on the front.

[But some of them did not even destroy the great darkness and despair. Although they have lost most of their clan and suffered great injuries, they are bent on the back of the world, waiting only for the day to be revealed again.]

The voice of the Mother Tree dug the ears of Kim Sun-hyuk more clearly than ever before.

Like dragons.]

* *

Kim Sun-hyuk, who was separated from the Mother Tree, was still confused.

‘The story of mothers has nothing to do with humans, but it is because of the fact that you are a contractor with those children and are not at all unrelated to the wars of the past. ’

The Mother Tree didn't tell me anything about what had happened in the past.

‘It's better to hear the stories about dragons directly from your pet. I think your pet's gonna be really pissed when I say it. ’

Not only about spirits, but also about dragons. I asked the dragons to listen to their stories.

‘And it's not far from my time, so you'll soon be able to meet your friend and hear all the stories. ’

The Mother Tree comforted him, struggling with stuffiness, saying that the dragon would come for him soon.

When the past story was finished like that, Kim Sun-hyuk immediately brought out the problems that were scattered in reality.

‘If you leave it like that, people outside the forest will starve to death. ’

First, I asked many hungry refugees on the outskirts of the forest to grant me the abundance of the forest, and the Mother Tree listened to him easily.

‘Let it be in return for their sacrifice, their devotion, and their righteousness that the dragons showed in the past. ’

She was willing to listen to anything, and Kim Sun-hyuk poured out other churches as well.

‘Your wishes will come true. ’

Among his requests accepted by the Mother Tree, there was also a clue that unlocked the curse of the House of Adesden, which was inevitable.

The favor of the Mother Tree did not end there.

The next day, for thanking the refugees for entering the forest and enjoying the abundance, the Mother Tree gave him a new gift.

[The past debt has been cleared, but I have yet to repay you for what you are about to do, so I would like to offer you a gift.]

It was an unimaginable income for Kim Sun-hyuk, who thought that the curse of the Ades would be enough to be lifted.

Tuck.

However, the reward from Mother's tree was too small. I thought that the Big Apple was shaking, but one branch of the tree fell on top of him.

She called it payback.

“Well…. ”

I let down my disappointment, but the Mother Tree smiled softly.

[It is the last sprout of my branch, the tree of life, containing the essence of the earth.]]
