Kujonin

We were looking up at the eastern and western mountains. The summit is hidden by clouds and it is not clear how high it is.

"Samitsu"

This is the Southern Hemisphere. The further south, the lower the temperature, but the cold here is a bit unusual. Given that the dwarves were lightly dressed, I don't think the latitude is that high. Aisle is moving in a jumpsuit, saying she cannot wear a bikini armor.

Signs that snow is about to fall from the cloudy sky.

"Is it so cold today or much colder today?"

There must be extraordinary weather even in another world.

"The climate is unusual, but the flower fields blooming at this temperature are also unusual."

As Seth says, yellow flowers like dandelions bloom in front of me and sway in the wind. Until now, the southern hemisphere was not basically a place where vegetation grows, such as red soil deserts, sand deserts and rocky areas, but only one type of short flowers clustered near the mountain range.

"I'm split into two."

Versa picked the flower and showed it. Certainly two flowers are blooming per stem.

"Isn't that unique?"

"Yeah, it's right. Look, this is it. That's it. It's too regular to fork everything. Don't you think it's a strange evolution?"

In other words, every flower has two flowers per stem.

"It's strange, isn't that kind of thing?"

"In the Northern Hemisphere, this wasn't the case. Okay! Let's dig the roots."

When Versa rolled her arms and tried to dig the ground, she was stopped by Melmo.

"I've come to a picnic, so let's eat lunch before. If it gets dirty first, it's troublesome."

Melmo is saying something like her mother. In our company, juniors are more like adults.

Lunch with a demon fur at a distance from the flower garden.

While warming the pot dish brought to me by drawing a magic circle on the ground, the flowers in the flower field began to shake all at once without the wind.

"May be reacting to magic!"

"Well, I will observe later. Let's eat rice first because it's cold."

I'm hungry because the pot smells good. For a moment, let my magician be patient.

"Do you smell something sweet?"

Aisle first noticed.

"I don't put anything with a sweet scent in the pot. That's true, but it's true. It has a sweet scent."

Seth, who was watching the pot, also turned up.

"The smell of sweet fruit!"

"Fuha, where is it?"

Rita and Bow get up and start looking for the source of the smell.

I had a stuffy nose, and once I inhaled my air, I found a sweet and sour smell drifting around. There is no fruit around! ? Mazu, poison! ?

"Everyone wears a mask! I'll leave here once!"

I put on my mask and made a spherical film with magic to cover myself.

"Eh! Why ?! It's such a sweet smell ..."

"Naoki is Park Nenjin who doesn't even know how to enjoy the scent, so leave it alone"

Aisle and Seth did not listen to my instructions and began to walk towards the flower field.

Two people tied with magic string and thrown backwards to escape. The pot was wasteful, but not so much. Poison can't be helped in the resurrected Misanga.

When I saw Aisle and Seth a considerable distance from the flower garden, I was poisoned as expected.

"Maybe it's a paralyzed and hallucinatory poison. Look, two eyes. You feel like you're out of your mind as a thoron. And you know, there's no reaction when you touch the tip of a knife to your finger."

Merciless Versa sees the symptoms of Aisle and Seth like an experimental monster.

After letting them breathe fresh air for a while and drinking water, they could calm down and walk normally.

"I'm going home today. I can't cross the mountains."

I'm not ready. A magic shield cannot prevent air, so if you cannot keep the sphere around your body for a long time, you will be poisoned. Even though I may be the highest level in the Komuro Company, if I keep it for at most 2 hours, my concentration and magical power will be cut off.

"I have to be able to control magic for two days in a row."

""Yes……""

All of them have a heavy footstep back to the dwarf cave, and the poisoned two are quite depressed.

"Once we have a clear goal, we just need to achieve it. If you can see the goal, you have to think it's good."

Versa, who has made many mistakes, encouraged him, but it didn't work.

"I haven't seen Sekaiju yet, but I'm still shocked. If I want to worry, I just need to worry as much as I can. My company is an exterminator, rest those who can't move, go to the world tree with only those who can move. "

"Such! Such a way of saying ..."

Rita was stopped by Bow trying to protest me.

It may be tough, but we are not good friends. Some are good at each. It is possible that someone will die if you bring them to the world tree where they can get rid of them or take care of them.

In the vicinity of the World Tree, it seems that it is not the level or skills but the person who has the ability to detect crisis is important. If this goes over the mountains and into the middle of the world tree, the situation will change even more. Fewer people can follow you.

Unless we protect ourselves and take action on our own, we cannot cope in situations where we do not know what traps exist. Beyond is a world tree nurtured by the evil god, who ingeniously sucks in magical power without purity and honesty.

"I have to think about your risks as a president. To be honest, Sekaiju seems to be far beyond my imagination. Usually, I can often do it properly, but what about this? No, no one can't die. "

There are no gods or evil gods here as in the spirits. It's a good opportunity to know how much we can do without relying on anyone.

Here, how much we can grow. It's a crucial moment for the Comlo Company.

"I'll keep you where you are! Whether it's a burning desert, a frigid mountain, or a world tree, I'll survive! I'll be cunning forever to survive! Please stop! "

"If you don't move forward here, I will live regretfully for the foreseeable future. I know that, but I'll die even if I go on in this darkness. Give me time! I can drive it in and if it still doesn't work, I can leave it! "

Seth and Isle seem to have decided.

"Everybody is doing this job, not everyone can do it, so if you think you're dangerous, you can stop."

I told everyone.

"I realize that I tend to jump into the unknown. I'll go back when I can suppress it and think about my life."

Versa-like words have returned.

"I ... let me think!"

Melmo is worried. I wish you had a lot of trouble. No one is to blame.

"I was going. When someone was sacrificed and someone was going to help me, I wanted to be sacrificed because I didn't have to think about it. That's my weakness. Protect myself. Without it, I can't protect Rita. If I can protect myself from the world tree, I feel like I can protect Rita. I'll do anything for that! "

"I guess I'll wait for Bow's return ... but if I don't think I might return, I definitely want to be with you! I don't know how far I can go, but let's train together And then, when it's bad, I'll clench my teeth and wait for Bow!

Bow and Rita also decided.

From there, we returned to the dwarf cave and began training in magical manipulation. I started by putting a magical film around my life. Melmo, who wanted to think, did the same as everyone. The form of magic is the easiest to imagine: a sword for Aisle, a slime for Versa, and a ship for Seth.

After an hour, the magical powers run out one after another.

In order to be more efficient and more stable, it is necessary to reduce the magic power and increase the strength. I went to the smithy to get my uncle of the dwarf hitting the iron for my image. Still, in half a day everyone will run out of magic.

However, every time I run out of magic, I felt that the time to maintain it would extend. If the duration of the magical film increases, albeit slightly, the magical power has run out many times a day.

After a week, it becomes mentally painful. Still no one stops.

Melmo began to make sausages with magical recovery syrup mixed in their dishes. Sausage also contains plenty of demonic blood. Usually, Melmo looks happy with his blood, but his sausage-making eyes are serious.

"I'm excited when I see the monsters of blood and insects. If I'm excited at Sekaiju, I'll be able to keep up with my feet! But I really want to go! I have to act carefully, deliberately and cunningly to live on Sekaiju, and I don't want to see my relatives suffering from poison anymore. "

Listening closely, Melmo once said that he had a poisonous spider monster and was about to die, but in fact he seemed to have killed his family. Aisle and Seth seemed to be poisoned and trauma revived.

"So I have to think more properly. In my case!"

"Yeah, thinking about it properly is also a matter of caution, so I'm good at going to Sekaiju, but I need to be good at it."

"Yes!"

After all, we are all training for World Tree.

The dwarves looked envied that we were just eating another menu of sausages, so we had them eat one bite at a time, but they were vomiting too much bitterness. The bitterness of the magic recovery syrup I made is so much that my tongue becomes numb after drinking. The number is decreasing because everyone uses it. In the Southern Hemisphere, there is no material, so it cannot be refilled.

All I can do is get rid of the slime, raise my level, and raise my magic power.

The scope of the slime extermination extended beyond the sandy desert to the rocky terrain and around the eastern salt lake. Around the salt lake, there are exposed dungeon ruins, and when I explored inside I found some slime that did not move like a mushroom. Perhaps it's not moving as much as possible, reducing the magical power it consumes. In the world before, the crustacean, a giant crab that lives in the deep sea, should have been fasting for about six years.

Just because a slime like a mushroom doesn't move and doesn't attack it doesn't mean it's harmless. The mucus is sticky like a sticky trap, so squeeze and collect in a bottle.

About a month after I started training, I was finally able to control magic for two consecutive days. Anyway, it was hard to grasp the tricks to keep my magic while sleeping.

Soon Aisle and Bersa got the hang of it, and two weeks later, everyone was able to maintain magic control for two days.

Is this enough to challenge World Tree again?

For the second challenge, I decided to go carefully to the top of the mountains.
