104 – Hero Selection (3)

“I’ll help you!”

Kwasik!

Dorothy rescued Letin, who was being dragged more and more by the Tsar, by swinging her ax and cutting off the Tsar’s tentacles.

“The cut is worse than I thought? It was an image that seemed stronger… “

“Hey kid, be careful!”

“Ugh?!”

Rettin threw himself and pushed Dorothy away.

Immediately afterwards, the Tsar’s bizarre tentacles struck the place where Dorothy was standing.

The ground struck by the tentacles sprouting from the body was dented.

If Dorothy had been there… Something unimaginable must have happened.

“It’s an unbelievable regeneration speed to grow so quickly…” Hey kid, are you okay?”

“Yes? Uh… yes!”

“Then stop panicking and stand up! “What are you staring at?!”

“Oh, that’s…. I was surprised that the prince was nicer than I thought… “

“What are you saying? “Get ready to fight right now!”

The two men, who were fighting in a spat, quickly prepared for battle when Char showed signs of attacking.

The surprise operation failed due to Retin’s intrusion, but it’s okay. Rather, we have a strong ally as allies, so if we take advantage of that, it will be fine.

The Tsar probably doesn’t know about my existence yet.

So, the strategy I set up is still effective.

-!

However, contrary to my expectations, the direction of Tsar’s attack was not toward Dorothy and Letin, but directly toward the bush where I was hiding.

“Ugh?!”

I used my extremely high agility to avoid his attack.

Damn, since when did that guy notice this?

If this happens, the strategy that was planned in advance will go to waste!

“What? “Was there a gloomy-looking guy?”

“It looks gloomy… “Do you mean me?”

“Is there anyone else who looks gloomy other than you?”

“It’s really sad that my first impression is that he’s a gloomy guy… Ugh!!! Please help me more than that!!!”

Just as I was about to lament about my gloomy appearance, I was attacked by the Tsar again.

The Tsar attacked me persistently.

Of course.

Creatures infected with contaminated mana are drawn to divinity, and since I am probably the one with the highest divinity, they follow their instinct and attack me.

I originally planned to use this advantage to confuse Char when Dorothy attacked him, but it became an unusable plan when he already noticed my presence.

“I’ll help you right away, priest!”

“Wow! Since I received something, I will help you too!”

Dorothy and Retin tried to remove the tentacles that were trying to harm me.

“What power…” !!!”

However, the Tsar’s tentacles were so strong that it seemed difficult to overcome them.

In the meantime, while blocking Dorothy and Letin, the Char continued to attack me and forced me to retreat.

As I was dodging the tentacles here and there, I felt like I was flying in the air for a moment.

My body suddenly tilted backwards and I finally realized that behind me was a cliff.

“Ugh!”

I fell backwards and fell to the ground.

Fortunately, the height of the fall was not high, so there were no major injuries.

But I fell so suddenly that I had no time to prepare, and the pain from falling quite far was extremely painful.

The impact hits even the bones, making it difficult to get up easily.

Still, I don’t see any tentacles around, probably because Char missed me.

Now that this has come to an end, should I just rest here…

If Letin and Dorothy work together, they will not be able to defeat the Tsar but will be able to escape safely.

The Char’s power is so strong that it would be difficult to hunt him alone… Char’s steps are quite slow, so running away will be easy.

“Ha… Let’s just rest for a bit. I’m so tired, but I can’t rest… “

I couldn’t get enough rest when I came to Asok Rock.

It is a place where there are no demons and it is quite far away from Char, so if you cast a few detection spells, you will be able to rest safely.

After making my judgment, I didn’t stand up and just stretched out.

“I don’t think anyone will show up to take the branches for a while, so should I just lie down for a few hours? “If you think about it, Dorothy is also a competitor, so there’s no need to join.”

I leisurely looked at the blue sky and thought about how I would bring the branches.

Once you confront them head on, you won’t be able to take the branch from the Tsar.

This is because the Tsar’s power was so great and his ability to detect divinity was so great that he found me while I was hiding and attacked me.

Therefore, even if you surprise attack from the front or the rear, you cannot take the branch.

If I use the power of the mirror, I can easily subdue the tsar and retrieve the branch, but I don’t want to use the mirror if possible.

It is a mirror that somehow brings back the power of the time when I was still alive, but when I use that power, the guilt boiling up inside me seems to turn my insides.

Fortunately, during my adolescence, a personality that did not know the weight of sin emerged and was able to take action. If the personality immediately after that terrible day had been reflected in the mirror… I am… I probably couldn’t move from that spot…

I used the mirror because I thought it had gotten better over the past 10 years, but I had no idea it would feel so unpleasant.

From now on, we will use mirrors only once as much as possible.

Just once to achieve my life’s goal… Before and after that, I will no longer use the power of mirrors.

“Even if you think about it that way, it’s still difficult… “Then how did you get the eggplant?”

It’s impossible to break through head-on, but it’s also impossible to pull off a trick, and I can’t even use the power of the mirror….

It seems unlikely that any of the methods that come to mind will be able to retrieve the branches of the World Tree from the Tsar.

“Qualities as a hero… “

As I was racking my brain and trying to find a solution for a long time, Dagon’s words suddenly came to mind.

“Yes! Qualifications as a warrior!”

Why didn’t I think of that?

Like a scientist who shouted Eureka, I jumped up and shouted my qualifications.

… The tone is a bit embarrassing, but whatever!

The test to select a warrior is simply to bring a branch.

The problem is that the branch is held by a terrifying monster called Char, but subduing the Char and bringing back the branch is not a test worthy of being called a selection of warriors.

Well, it might be a good test if you simply select a strong person as a hero, but can you really find out the ‘qualities’ of a hero through that?

A warrior is literally a warrior. He is a hero among heroes and a person with the talent to save the world.

The warrior’s strength is also important, but since the hero goes on a journey with party members who have strong strength, there is no need to have enormous strength.

The qualities of a warrior are not strength, but leadership and interpersonal skills to lead party members, and the cause.

If one or two people attack the Tsar, he will definitely lose, but if all the warrior candidates work together to defeat him, he can be defeated.

So, if you lead everyone’s strength for a good cause and catch the Tsar, you can get branches.

As I thought about qualifications, I realized how to surpass the warrior test.

Ah… Even though I try not to pay attention to this word, it keeps bothering me, right?

Do you have an adulterous devil in your head?

Why do strange things keep bothering me?

“Hmm! Anyway, we can just gather people together and deal with it, right? Dorothy and Retin’s magic can be felt nearby… There is one thing that is presumed to be the magic power of a dwarf… And… What’s this?”

As there were few creatures with magical power, the detection was carried out easily, and one thing was caught by the detection magic.

What is it?

Why can I feel the magic of the World Tree right next to me?

– Rustle.

“……”

When I sensed the presence of a creature, I lowered my voice.

Could it be that the person next to you is the Tsar?

Ha… Judging by the magical power of the World Tree, it must be Char.

I didn’t sense the tsar’s movements for a moment just because I stood up and shouted my qualifications.

But in that moment, in a moment that wasn’t really a single moment, the person who was quite far away was next to me… ?

Once I calmed down, I looked towards where the sound came from.

“?”

Contrary to my expectations, there were no monsters there.

There has never been a creature like a tsar with tentacles divided into thousands of branches.

But it’s not like there was nothing… There was a tiny, tiny lizard.

“Kkyun?”

The red lizard that looked similar to Silly let out such a cute cry.

But I couldn’t pay attention to the cute crying guy.

Because I was very concerned about the tree branch he was holding in his mouth.

“Branches of the World Tree… ?”

What the guy was holding in his mouth was a beautiful branch that looked like it had been carved out of emerald.

However, the magic and divinity felt in it announce its specialness.

I understand why Sylvia said she would be able to recognize the branches of the World Tree at a glance.

It would be really difficult not to recognize that brilliant light and enchanting power.

Just looking at it gives me tens of thousands of inspirations.

That power.

If only we had the power of green to purify everything, we would be of great help in purifying the world.

But… Why…

“You have it, not the Tsar?”

I stared at the branch he was holding with a puzzled look.
