”Kheh, Kheh... ah, ahh...”

The captured spirit man coughs and groans.

Slim and luxurious body. Her long, thin, green hair tied behind her, eyes of the same color. The glowing white skin is the image of the Spirit Man in human thoughts. The sharp ears were exposed from the gap in her hair, but the outward appearance of the person tells that her race is not human, even if there are no ear features.

And I was expecting a little, but that face was completely different from the person I gave you the lead. My height is different and my voice is different. "Who the hell was that..."

Lucia's eyes widened slightly as she noticed something. But before Lucia could speak, Lapis said she was impressed.

"It's a strong magic force that circulates with the cotton that you feel inside your body. And the color of his eyes -- the people of Yugudra who live with nature and maintain order in the world."

Huh? Is that something you can tell by looking at it? Is the light green hair and eyes a testament to Yggdra's people?

I checked my surroundings gently, but no one disagreed with me. Tino sighed with admiration.

"You feel the same force in your body as the force flowing through your pulse. Moreover, there was no stain at all. The power of the Lapis was also distinct from humans, but there was no way it was on top of that--"

"It's the ultimate magic power of Shizu." You can finally reach it by assimilating with nature and sharpening your strength - the opposite of Lucia. I've never seen such a quiet magic power before, but when I reach this zone, it's closer to a spirit than a creature. "

Lapis was impressed by Lucia's eyebrows. I also wanted to get a treasure that would give me magic power someday and say such good things.

And Eliza went out before the people of Jugdorah.

Then he said, reaching out to the people of Yugudra, who often cough up spirits inside their throats.

"She's probably... the Conductor." I was going to meet you at the front... the spirits said the world was coming to ruin. What the hell happened to Yggdra? "

Huh... the ruin of the world is another ruin - the ruin of the world?

I almost unexpectedly cover my face and manage to keep my poker face.

Suddenly, I didn't want to go to Yggdra. Luke didn't have to petrify anything at this time...... it's not too hard to ask for a small favor, but this is obviously an ark project.

I want to stay here and answer the phone, but there are spirits inside Mikun. It was clogged.

"Kheh, Kheh...!"

The people of Yugudra looked up at us as they were unexpectedly upset and finally settled down.

Eyes and eyes match. The pale green eyes were so clear from the front that they seemed to be able to see into the depths of my heart. Much more mysterious than the spirits of that sphere.

The cherry-colored lips open small, checking the surroundings as if the eyes were bewildered.

"You guys... I see." He said he was coming from the outside. - Yes! What about Miles!? "

"That spirit is safe." I'm regaining consciousness and waiting in a safe place. The spirits were talking about simple things, but I want to hear more about them....... what the hell happened? "

I don't want to hear it. I can't help but ask.

When her emotions were fixed on her face with a hard-boiled look, Eliza took her arm and pushed it out in front of Yugudra's people.

"He found the cursed stone, Krai Andrich. It is known as one of the most wise people in the Imperial Capital. If we talk about it, we might find a solution."

"!? Stop it, Eliza. I'm not a wise man. It's full of things I don't know."

I don't even know why Eliza gave me such an evaluation... maybe she's just saying it like I am.

The people of Yggdra stared at me as if they were trying to see through our sincerity, but stood up with a small nod to me, strangling my shoulders and insisting on my incompetence.

"Alright. Originally, the discovery of Sherro's cursed stone was a feat." It has nothing to do with race. Besides, it looks like... you've been helped. Naturally, it's not like we're going to talk to humans, but we have to pay back our debts. My name is Selen...... and I'm Yugudra's Conductor. Let me tell you the whole story. Everything that could lead to the demise of the world that Yggdra is facing today. "

Ah, you talk... I just came to heal Luke, but I don't feel like I can say that anymore.

I wanted to be a person who could say no when I wanted to say no like Liz and the others.

Liz opened her eyes wide and said with an expression that was just starting to get interesting.

"What!? The world is doomed?" What? I didn't understand the spirit's words at all! "

Apparently, the person who can say "no" is also a yes this time. "Because I want to cling to my neck dangerously..."

Selen takes out the conductor we also have from the bag and hangs it with the string. The conductor turned around and stopped pointing in one direction. The rampage just now seemed to be a lie.

Eliza opens her eyes and takes out her lead. The conductor, like the selenium possessed, naturally showed one place to stop.

"...... the lead is fixed"

"...... If the guide had gone mad, it would have been Miles' influence." She's one of Yggdra's most powerful spirits. "

"Wait...... is that spirit that is so close to the divine nature being used by Yggdra's mage?!"

I hear that it becomes difficult for the Spirit to contract in proportion to his power. I could easily defeat any monster, so I didn't know how much power that opposing spirit had, but it must have been quite enough because it had barely survived the onslaught of Lucia and the others.

In response to Lapis' question, Serene frowned for a moment and shook her head sideways.

"...... No, I'm just getting help. At Yggdra, we have a closer relationship with the spirits than the ancient...... I usually get in charge of the protection of the forest...... Recently, because of the noise, I was followed as an escort, but it's unlikely that the guardian spirits who have protected the forest for a long time will lose me...... I've never seen anything like it before. It was totally unexpected.”

"I see, it's completely unexpected..."

Inadvertently, Selen looks at me with a leaked word.

"............ What is it?"

No...... I don't know what happened, but this time, the fact that the spirits who kept protecting the legendary country were mad, I just unintentionally refuted her words. Oh, yeah, it's nothing different from a companion like that.

Somehow I look up at the sky. Although it is named after a large layer such as the Divine Tree Way, the blueness of the sky is no different from that of the outside.

A few minutes to see the sky and escape the reality. I finally decided to get ready and put my face back together.

Then he sighed a big sigh and said, silently checking the faces that were waiting for me to escape from reality.

"...... no, it's nothing. For now, it looks like we don't have much time. I can't promise to do something about it, but for now, I'll let Yggdra show me around."

§

After a dozen minutes of walking under the guidance of Selenium, the mist suddenly stood in the forest, and the sight opened up all at once.

It was a village that was much more modest than the Imperial Capital, and as beautiful as if it had fallen into a galaxy.

The houses were built on thick trees on a river flowing with sarasara. I knew that spirits living in the forest were born in nature and live in harmony with nature.

When I heard that metal was bad, I thought it was a low level of civilization, but it was completely different.

This is only because the direction of development is different.

According to Selen, the number of Spirits living in Ygdora is not that large, but all of them are masters of magic, and with the help of the Spirit, it seems that they are laying the foundation for life.

I sighed unexpectedly. I can't believe that a village like this existed in this world--a hunter who finds joy in stepping into a place he hasn't even set foot in yet can understand a little bit.

And most of all, it was the tree. A gigantic tree that rises above the sky and enters into sight.

Even though it seems to be a few kilometers away, it is too big to suspect the illusion of the eyes. Even though it's so far away, I can't see the pinnacle.

The shadows were filled with luscious leaves, reminiscent of the new treasure temple that had been encountered in the past, "White Garden (Prism Garden)" flower snow.

This is the homeland of all Spirits - Yggdra.

The scene of the legendary country (although the size of the village is about the same) in front of me showed a little excitement at the expression of Liz who was accustomed to adventure.

Selen told me a heavy story on the road, but it's their strength that they can enjoy everything to the fullest.

Citrix looked down at her palm and said as she was impressed.

"I see... Mana Materials are thick." It's like a high level treasure hall. Rather, it was strange that the treasure hall had not been built so far ─ ─ "

"The world tree is the center of mana materials circulating around the world," he said. "It seems like it's not a mistake, leader."

"... yeah, yeah, that's right."

There are veins all over the world. It is rare to hear that there is a world tree at the center of the vein where the mana material circulates, but it was shocking to hear that it is true.

Like us, for the first time, Yugudra nodded with an apparent Lapis.

"People with high absorption of Mana Materials will be [drunk]." [Ghost of Mourning] is probably used to high-level treasure halls, but-- "

"I see... we certainly shouldn't stay too long." I'm fine, but-- "

Mana Material Sickness is a phenomenon that occurs when a hunter with a powerful ability to absorb Mana Materials absorbs a large amount of Mana Materials outside the range of application at once, such as in a high treasure hall.

The higher the absorption capacity of the Mana Material, the better, but this phenomenon was also called the disadvantage of one of the few talents. I envied the Mana Material as long as it had little absorptive capacity.

Kurus frowns and says as if to give advice.

"Yowanningen, don't push yourself too hard. Because we Spirits have low absorption capacity of Mana Materials, we don't have a problem with it, but I hear that Mana Materials can't handle being intoxicated."

I have a lower absorption capacity of Mana Materials than Krus. How low is it? Even at that [lost inn], I didn't get drunk on mana materials.

Just because I'm not drunk doesn't mean I can't do anything... "

"...... I'm fine. I'm not going to stay long."

I don't have a problem, Liz and I don't. Kurus is right, mana materialism is not a cure.

The Lizzies were accustomed to the phenomenon of their hands adventuring in the high level treasure hall, but it was a different story from what they were accustomed to.

Yeah, yeah, I nodded, and Kriss gnawed in.

"...... why is Yowanningen so confident when he hears such a story?"

"Huh...?"

Self-confidence... where is my self-confidence? "It's just a story about getting out of here and finishing up your errands..."

While on the road, Selen told me that Yugdora was facing a problem on a scale that was not beyond our control, even if she asked for an overview. If there's anything we can do to help, we can help, but she doesn't seem to think she can handle it in the first place.

Our goal was simply to decurse Luke's petrification. Don't forget that. Maybe if I go back to Zebuldia and talk to Mr. Franz about Yggdra's troubles...

"I want to ask you a lot of questions about how you found Sherro, but first let's decurse Sherro's petrification." Please follow me. "

Selen, who was looking toward the world tree with her eyebrows closed, began to walk as if she had regained consciousness.

I was wondering what would happen if I heard that Yugudra was in danger, but at least I think I can achieve my goal without any trouble.

§

And Serena looked serious after carefully checking the stone statue Luke had taken out from Mikun.

"No, this curse is too strong." No matter how much the spirits' queen's magic is, it seems that the spirits didn't hate being cursed so far. "

Huh? Can't you get rid of the curse?

I opened my eyes unexpectedly to the conclusion that had been drawn in barely time.

I didn't even think about the pattern that I couldn't decurse. Eliza told me that Yggdra's magician could solve it, but Luke... I didn't think you'd be cursed so strongly... well, I thought I'd see it painfully someday.

I mean, it's really bad. I've wasted a lot of time coming to Yggdra. When the curse progressed and I couldn't get back from the stone, I couldn't laugh.

Selen responds to my question with anger. [M]

"To be precise, it's impossible to decurse here." If treatment is not carried out in an appropriate place ─ ─ "

"Where is the right place?"

"...... It's under the tree of the world. Because we are greatly influenced by that tree--"

I thought you said you couldn't get any closer to the world tree... Looks like this is the worst timing.

Citri is also pounding her hands when she says that she has gone. I was too used to it just because something went wrong all the time.

Just in case, I'll be frightened to check.

"...... I hope you're not offended...... but I wonder if there's any more powerful magicians?" It seems like you can get Luke back without setting up a place... from what I've heard, it seems that the spiritual royalty is the most powerful. "

Well, maybe it's just humans asking the royal family for help, but Luke's life is at stake.

If the petrification doesn't heal, Luke is a figurine of the Clan House. Selen's mouth twitched for an instant as I ate down unusually, and she raised her voice like she was being pushed to death.

"............ I'm the royal family...... I'm sorry, humming."
