Shinka no Mi

"Hey, what's this..."

We were taken by a soldier who jumped in haste and moved into the garden of the palace, but we opened our eyes unexpectedly to the sight in front of it.

It's...

"Such a... such a giant tree, you didn't grow!?"

Yes, there were giant trees growing in the garden that suddenly covered half of this palace.

Until yesterday, these trees weren't growing, and where did they come from?

... Is it possible that the magical effects I used in the Sealed Demon Forest have reached this point?

A lot of anxiety comes to mind, but I don't think that's why.

Plus, I kind of have a bad feeling...

"Oh, Makoto. And you're all here."

……

Suddenly, eyes and mouths appeared from the giant tree in front of us, and we were called out.

I had a bad feeling. I was...!

"It's you!?"

'? You ask strange things. Doesn't it matter what you think? A tree.'

"You can tell it's a tree!?"

What I'm trying to say is not just a tree, but that talking tree...... that's fucking awkward!

Amelia and I were stunned as I accidentally stuck into the giant tree opponent in front of us, sighing like we'd given up until Helen.

"Ha... well Makoto-sensei. Wouldn't be strange to have this big tree acquaintance..."

"It's a misunderstanding! Amelia's power originally caused this tree!?"

"Hey, wait a minute! I did breathe my life into the tree to keep an eye on you, but it wasn't this big, was it?!? Plus, I finished my role, so that life must be gone too! Why are you doing this?!?"

Even for Amelia, things seemed completely unpredictable and confusing.

"... swin. I can't keep up anymore."

"Don't worry, Liel, so do I. I don't care what you think, I think Seiichi has more influence than Amelia..."

Somehow Riel and the others are starting to escape reality into this situation... but please return to sanity. I want to escape reality, too.

If you have no idea what made you such a big tree, the giant tree in front of you opens its mouth in a frightened manner.

'I wondered what you were so confused about... were you confused that I looked different? That's terrible! I can't believe I just got a little older... was Makoto and my bond to that extent!?'

"It's not a bit, it's a bond with you!?"

I only remember him swinging around.

"No, I don't care about that..."

'I don't care!?'

"You, why are you getting so big?

While ignoring Giant Tree's reaction, I'll be honest with you.

The tree has always felt like it was talking normally, but I also feel that my voice has gained some thickness by being louder, and that I am speaking directly to my brain. What really happened?

'Hmm... if you ask me why I grew up... honestly, I don't know either'

"What?"

'This is what happened this morning when I tried to put some roots down in this garden...'

"Wait, did he want to sit in the garden of this castle?

"Just the tree, [the tree to sit on]... Oh, my God."

"Can I burn him?

I know it's okay, but I want you to calm down a little.

"No, I know it didn't come to that on your own initiative, but is there really no reason to think of anything?

'Well... speaking of possible things, I was also trying to get back to the original tree because I had finished the role I had originally been given in this garden... but I was wondering if Makoto's insanity was perhaps contagious a little after acting with Makoto for a while'

"What is the contagion of insanity!?"

"I see... Makichi caused it."

"I knew it."

"If it's Makoto's fault..."

"You're convinced."

"Can I cry?

I don't even know why you blamed me, and what if that convinces you? It's so normal.

'Wouldn't that be nice? I've gained the power to create magic by still being like this. "

"Huh?"

'So there is also magic created from me within this palace, which means that magic can be used more smoothly'

"That means... you don't have to use it between recoveries?

'That's what happens. Of course, it can be used because Makoto has crept through and even part of the sealed demon forest that has newly grown trees with Makoto's magic there is magic...... it still doesn't change to being part of it, so it doesn't have the effect of being able to use magic to this imperial capital. So here comes this me! So.'

I'm angry with the way you talk, but the ability of this giant tree will certainly be appreciated by the Varsha Empire. Because he says magic can be used thanks to him.

However, Amelia and the others had a subtle look, which seemed complicated somewhere.

Looking at those Amelias with a slightly sympathetic eye, Giant Tree turns her gaze to me and decides on Doya's face.

What do you say? Makoto. This evolved me! Do you like it? Just a tree. '

"Depression evolved, too, huh?

No, he was originally depressing.

That's why I'm going to live as a Kamigi in this garden.

"Do you say Kamiki yourself?

'Cause nobody tells me!

Damn positive, dude.

Tired of how giant trees look, giant trees look at us with a great look.

'By the way, are you sure?

"Hmm? What?

I'm Kamiki, right?

"Self-proclaimed."

'I'm not calling myself that! Is that such a punitive attitude okay?!? Respect me more! Come on, come on, come on!

"I'm saying?

"Let's cut it down"

When Amelia made that decision with no expression, she began to give instructions to the soldier to cut her down.

"Ghaaaaaa! Against violence! It's natural destruction!

"You wouldn't have a problem with a bottle, would you?

'That's how humans destroy nature!

I'm so convinced.

No, really... because humans are selfish creatures... it's not even a question of ending them in one word...

'Do you mind!? Even if I'm gone! I did solve the problem I was facing thanks to Makoto! But the Kaisel Empire may march on again questioning the soldiers who are not returning!? It would be better to use magic then!?'

"Well, that's..."

'Would it!?'

It's a giant tree that makes my eyes shine all the time here, but I squealed like Mr. Riel noticed something.

"But... so they can use magic, right?

"Oh, right. Besides, isn't it advantageous for the Kaisel Empire that magic was originally available?

……

Giant tree completely silenced by the words of Mr. Riel and Mr. Swine.

Seeing that, Mr. Amelia nodded.

"I knew we'd cut it down"

"Have mercy. Ooh, ooh!

Where did you disappear when you said something about Kamiki earlier?

Amelia sighed when we were feeling paralyzed by the usual and unthinkable situation of giant trees.

"Ha... well, I won't until I cut it down. It doesn't change the fact that you brought Makoto here, and it's not all bad that magic can be used."

"Oh, oh! Your Majesty...!

"The question is, how do you master anything but restorative magic in this country... while the Kaisel Empire is invading most places, it's also difficult to bring in magic teachers from other countries -"

I almost said that, Amelia, but when I realized something, I turned my face to Helen with momentum.

"That's right, it's not!

"Oh, sister?

"Helen, you're gonna teach us magic!

"Huh?"

Amelia grabs Helen's shoulder and tells him with a serious look.

"You are the only human being in this country who has learned magic!

"Well, that's true... all I can use is fire attributes..."

"That's okay! Same as swordsmanship, even magic has a common foundation, right?

"Well... magic manipulation or something..."

"That's what you teach us!

"I..."

Helen asks Amelia in horror and so on.

"Can I... help this country?

……

"Your sister's... can you help...?

"Yes!"

Hearing that word of Amelia, Helen's eyes gradually moistened and tears began to spill.

"Hey, what's going on!?"

"Oh, sorry... I, I wanted to help your sister at all... so I went to Barbados School of Magic to study magic, but I couldn't use magic there either... with a fall... wondering what it meant for me to leave the country..."

Helen discloses the thoughts she's been accumulating.

"I can't do anything like this and it's almost over... but thanks to Makoto Sensei, I can use magic... and I can't waste my previous studies..."

That being said, Helen finally couldn't stand it and started crying.

"Good... good... even for me, in your sister's role..."

"... silly. It's not helpful or anything, I just need you to stay."

Amelia graciously embraced Helen, even though she got a little nosy.

Seeing that, Mr. Swine and Mr. Riel are also rinsing their noses.

... You look okay now.

I thought so, and when I moved gently off the spot, I returned to Salia and the others with metamorphosis magic.

◆ ◇ ◆

"Gusu...... sorry, sister"

"It's okay. So, can you take it on?

In response to Amelia's words, Helen nodded forcefully as she wiped her tears.

"Leave it to me! I'll teach you magic!

Amelia nods contentedly at how Helen looks like that.

"Thanks.... Seiichi, I really appreciate your help, including about Helen. So, after all, the reward makes me..."

That's all I said, Amelia noticed.

"... Makichi?

"Huh?"

"... that?

"... not here, right..."

Giant trees spoke to Amelia, who looked desperately around.

"Oh, Makoto's home, isn't he?

"To? Or are you home? In your room?"

"No, in the original country"

"" "Yeah, yeah, yeah!?" "

Amelia raised her voice of surprise at the words of the giant tree.

"He... left without receiving a reward from us!? Why!?"

"Meh, wasn't that a pain in the ass?

"annoying!?"

Stunned by Helen's words, Amelia gradually shivers her shoulders.

To Amelia like that, Riel called out in horror.

"Oh, dear Amelia...?

"... not good temper"

"To?"

And as he lifted his face up vigorously, he shouted at the sky.

"Superior! Then I'll never let you get away with it until you get it!

"Oh, dear Amelia!?"

"Whatever it is, me and Helen, and you're gonna get Riel and Swine to take it. Ahhhhhhhh!

"Us too!?"

It was no longer decided in Amelia that Helen and the others would be rewarded together.

"What, complaining!?"

"Yes, no, do you call it a complaint... I do think Makoto is a good lord, but the... do you say it's too sudden..."

"I don't have someone to deal with anyway, okay!?"

"Terrible!?"

"I don't know. I don't know if that's okay. I was interested in getting married, but it was a pain in the ass to find someone."

"Is that all right, Swin!

"Isn't that nice? 'Cause Makichi, you're amazing, aren't you?

"Oh, that's..."

Liel is about to be flushed by Swine's words.

Next to it, Amelia was also pressing Helen.

"Helen, too, okay!?"

"Yes, no, sister!? To Seiichi Sensei..."

"I like it, I hate it!?"

"No, it's not that I don't like it..."

"Okay then!

"Meh, it's fucked up..."

Helen, unable to stop her rampant sister, held her head by accident.

"Oh man... Makoto is the center of trouble everywhere"

Whether such a giant tree whine reaches Makichi is another story.
