Nido Tensei Shita Shounen wa S Rank Boukensha Toshite Heion ni Sugosu ~ Zense ga Kenja de Eiyūdatta Boku wa Raisede wa Jimi ni Ikiru ~

After defeating the Mother Yugdeiter, the Yugdeiters, who surrounded the world trees, ran away scattering the cloud children.

The boss who gave the order was defeated, so that's a natural reaction.

But thanks to this, we were able to go after the World Tree without worrying about defending it.

As a precaution, we asked the slow-moving dwarves to defend the world's trees, and we and the elves teamed up to destroy the Yugdeiter.

After all, the Yugdeiter is a creature in the world of demons.

Invasive alien species.If we don't get rid of it, it could reproduce in hundreds of years, targeting the world's trees.

The Lost Forest was vast, but using exploratory magic was easy to track.

Cucumber!

Mohmov also smelled Yugdeiter and helped us track him down.

Thanks to a few days of mountain hunting and no forest hunting, we succeeded in exterminating all the Jugdeiters.

◆

"Good work, everyone!"

"" "" "" Good work!! "" ""

We were having a celebratory feast when we came back to the World Tree after the Jugdeater was exterminated.

"Hahahaha! I can't believe it!We finally saved the world tree! "

"Ah! We killed those monsters with our hands!"

Elves and dwarves are proud to praise each other for being able to defeat monsters with their own hands.

"Wow! I walked through the woods and there was no monster there!"

"We can't fight with this. We can walk in the woods!"

They are joyful that they have been able to walk safely through the woods.

"And thanks to Lex and the others. I really appreciate it."

Seeing such a sight, Sharaza, with a clear smile, came with the dishes in her hands.

"Master Lex, eat this plate, too.This is a dish made with ingredients available in the forest.The monsters' wandering made it impossible to gather ingredients, but thanks to you, I was able to cook this dish for the first time in hundreds of years. "

Looks like this dish is from Sharaza's hometown.

It looks like a cuisine that consists mainly of mushrooms and wild plants.

"I'll take it."

A tingling sensation spreads into your mouth when you eat the dish as recommended.

This is for a dish with multiple spices mixed together.

Mushrooms are thoroughly soaked in flavor and have excellent bite response.

Not only the stimulation of spices, but also the taste of the wild vegetables themselves is interesting.

"It's delicious. It's a dish you can't taste in a human town."

"Yes, if you don't harvest and eat these vegetables right away, they'll taste bad and turn into something else."

Hee, because it's not suitable for transportation, it's a local dish that can only be eaten locally.

Ah, but if you use a magic bag, you won't have to worry about it.

When I was talking about that, the dwarves brought me dishes on a platter.

"His Majesty the Honourable King Lex! Eat this dish too!It's wild vegetables and pork!The unique bitter wild vegetables and the juicy steak go well with alcohol! "

"Mr. Lex, let's eat our food too!"

"Eat our food too!"

Other species also arrive with food.

"Wow!?"

"Eat it now!"

"It's really delicious."

"It's delicious enough to fall off my cheeks too!"

The people who cooked like that killed me and made me a mess.

But it was thanks to everyone's hard work to defeat the Yugdeiter that the people of the village were able to eat a lot of food with a smile.

We enjoyed the banquet, feeling very proud of the sight.

◆

Then the chief of the village acknowledged that we had successfully completed the request, and we decided to return to King's Landing the next day.

"It's a shame he's gone."

"I wanted to learn more from Master Lex."

"I also wanted to learn the art of blacksmithing from His Majesty King Lex...."

... I wanted the dwarves to stop calling me that.

"We're a grassroots adventurer.I can't stay in one place. "

"I heard that the tribes are constantly moving around, but Lord Lex and the others are the greatest."

The elders of the village showed themselves, saying that Hahahaha was laughing.

"Thanks to the owners, the local crisis was saved. Thank you."

"No, don't worry about it.This is my job too. "

"No, the work of the employer and others this time is too big an activity as a mere caution stick.The inheritance of the lost technology of the local dwarves, the training of the warriors, the teaching of the method of making elixirs to fertilizers that brings even more amazing abundance, and the explosive growth of the world trees that have not grown for a long time... honestly, the rewards prepared by the warriors are very unworthy of the work of the employers and others. "

Hmm, I didn't do that much.

I mean, it's almost all about Mr. Lex.

"" "Yeah, yeah." "

And when Riella and the others raised their humble voices behind them, Sharaza said no.

"No, thanks to you and others, the damage done to the village has been significantly reduced.Undoubtedly, we are saved thanks to you. "

Not only Sharaza, but also the local warriors.

"We all survived because you fought together!"

"That's right, I didn't think I could do it when I was surrounded by that monster herd.But you and the others went towards the monster without flinching.You're young, but you're a fine warrior! "

Praised by everyone, Liliera and the others scratched their cheeks as if they were illuminated.

Yes, there are people who will acknowledge the work of everyone who fought seriously to protect our country!

"His Majesty the Honourable King Lex. This is an additional reward from Dwarfs such as Etc.Using the ancient refining technique taught to His Majesty, we have prepared the best products that can be used today. Please accept it. "

So the dwarf chief offered me a few metal ingots.

Various metals, such as copper, iron, steel and mythrills, that would have been refined from the bark of the world's trees, were far better than when I first saw the equipment they made.

"Excellent purity. In just a few days, Dwarfs are the only ones who get so much better.I'm glad I gave you back what my master taught me. "

"Oh, what a waste of words! The next time we meet, we'll have more!"

"" "" Expect it!! ""

The dwarfs declared to me with their motivated eyes. [M]

If they're motivated, it's not too far to go beyond the technology we've recaptured and climb higher.

"Sir Lex, this is a whisper, but I would like you to take the ingredients and medicinal herbs from the forest as an additional reward."

Sharaza and the others brought out the grace of the woods and the mountain of medicinal herbs.

"I was worried that those monsters would devour me, but fortunately, they were too small to eat, and they weren't roughed up."

"That's good!"

If the monster had devoured me, it would have taken me a long time to restore the forest, but fortunately, I was relieved not to worry about it.

Apparently, the Jugdeiters weren't interested in ordinary ingredients.

"We helped collect herbs together!"

"Yes, we're good at harvesting the forest!All - you - can - take the fruit from the tall trees! "

That's why the dwarves and the beasts came with a bunch of medicinal herbs.

They didn't want to run away from the forest, but they were willing to stay and enjoy harvesting in the forest for a long time.

"Some items are difficult to obtain and expensive outside the forest.I want you to take this as an additional reward.You can either sell it or use it yourself. "

Sharaza explains herbs to me.

Speaking of which, I've never seen herbs around here since they regenerated.

Let's make a greenhouse in the Mansion of King's Landing and grow it.

"Hey hey, take this too!"

"Give me this too!"

When I was thinking about that, the locals brought me souvenirs one after the other, and I was able to make a little mountain.

Well then, it's time to go.

When we serve the souvenirs we receive in a magical bag, we turn our backs from the world tree to leave our hometown.

It was then.

The world tree wobbled wildly.

And something fell from above.

Hmm?

I just took what fell over my head and checked what it was.

"Is this... a nut?"

Yes, what I took was nuts.

But the size of the tree is as large as the head of a man.

"This is...."

Huh? I think I've seen it somewhere....

"That's it!?"

Sharaza suddenly raised her voice after seeing the nuts.

"Let it be the fruit of the world tree!?"

"" "" "" Ehhhhhh!? "" ""

Everyone in the town shouted surprise at Sharaza's words.

Yeah, that's right. This is the fruit of a world tree.

After I felled too many world trees in my previous life, I searched around to see if the fruit had fallen and collected it.

I was collecting it and incinerating it so as not to increase it again.

But I can't do that because it seems that there are fewer trees in the world around this time of year.

Yes, Mr. Sharaza, I'll give it back.

Ah, ahh

Sharaza is surprised to receive the nuts of the world tree.

But Elder Elf stopped it.

"Wait, this is probably not the will of the world tree."

"", "", "" World Tree will?

"Hmm, the world tree must have sent fruit in return for the Lord who protected himself.Please don't take it. "

"Long!? Are you serious!?"

"Elf, you!?"

The elders of other races and the inhabitants of the village were also surprised by the words of the Elf Chief.

"Sometimes I'm surprised.The monsters that threatened the world's trees were successfully exterminated by them.And the world tree, which had not ripened for a long time, also grew thanks to his fertilizer, and the fact that it ripened.Then the world tree will continue to bear fruit.Shouldn't the first tree actually be sent to him according to his will? "

……

Everyone thinks quietly in the words of the Elf Leader.

No, to be honest, I don't care if I get the fruit of the world tree....

It's the biggest weed in the world anyway.

It happened that this forest didn't fit or grow well, but if it was planted on other lands, it would quickly suck up nutrients and grow enormously.

I want everyone in my town to do their best and return it peacefully....

"Surely the words of the head of the elf make sense."

Does it make sense!?

"If that's what the trees of the world want, there's no other way."

You can't help it!?

"Well, that's all they did for me.We will wait for the fruit of the next world tree! "

"Ah, let's do it!"

"As the World Tree Wants!"

I wonder what that means. My wish is no longer the air that returns the fruit of the world tree. [M]

"Thank you, Mr. Lex, for your new world tree!"

"... yes"

I couldn't help but pull back the hand I put out after losing to Mr. Sharaza, who had a sparkling glance.

"That's my brother! I can't believe you gave me the World Tree!"

"The fruit of the world tree... I wonder if you can split it it just by the surface.I'm sure it's going to be a great ingredient for medicine. "

"The fruit of the world tree. I've got a treasure...!"

"Is it the fruit of the tree that is the ingredient of the elixir?You gave me something amazing, Mr. Lex! "

No, guys, this isn't such a good thing!?

"Fufu, the boulder is Mr. Lex.I can't believe you're getting rewarded for the fruits of the world tree that you're supposed to protect.It's like being a hero and letting the princess get away with it. "

No, no, no! What are you talking about, Liliera!? This is the Demon King who sucks up the nutrition of the nearby earth!?

But instead of saying such a thing in front of the people of the great joy hometown, I was to receive the fruit of the world tree quietly.

◆

"Hah, finally back."

Coming back to King's Land from the Land of the World Tree, we were relieving ourselves of our strength for a long time.

After all, everyone seems to be at ease at home, and even Norb, who is always pissed, is on the sofa.

As far as Gyro-kun was concerned, he occupied another sofa and put Mohmov on his pillow to rest.

Gyu!

Ah, the angry Mohmov kicked me.

"Well, I wonder what I did with it anyway."

I hold the fruit of the world tree placed on the table in front of me.

I don't know if planting it in a bad place would bother my neighbors.

But it is also a problem to leave what you received behind the warehouse.

Do you have any good ideas....

"Someone who understands the troubles of the world's trees in this country and takes care of them properly... ah!"

That reminds me of someone's face. [M]

Yes, he will use the fruit of the world tree well!

Alright! Let's leave the world tree to Gunnai!

Yes, I decided to entrust the fruit of the world tree to Gun Ai, who works in the study of edible chimeras in my home village.

Oh no, it's good to have just the right person!
