I Became a Shaman in a Fantasy World - Chapter 41



Only Noblemtl

#41 A silent woman (2)

A branch of the world tree.

“What the heck is this…?”

It was an incredibly strange thing.

The subject of wood chips is sacred.

It’s a little thicker than my thigh and just as long as my leg.

To be honest, this one branch looked more sacred than the sacred tree in most villages.

Even though several hours had passed, the leaves on the branches were still green and vibrant.

“This isn’t an ordinary item either…”

I think he gave it to me to try to use it well…

A suitable use came to mind, but it was a bit ambiguous.

As I was hugging the tree and thinking, I felt Serena’s gaze.

“hmm?”

Well, Serena is also a high elf, so this kind of reaction would be natural.

In her situation, it would be the body of the god she serves that fell off.

“…Want to take a look?”

Serena, who had been looking at the tree branches, turned her gaze to me.

Yes, yes, yes.

Is it a bit disrespectful to let someone watch?

“Oh my…”

I looked at the newly decorated World Tree, my appetite whetted.

A gold wire three times thicker than the last one.

And the amulets placed here and there.

I’ve been using that talisman since morning and I’ve used up all my spiritual energy.

In other words, the world tree is currently in a very strong state.

Since the divine energy is also overflowing, evil things will not be able to enter without permission.

“This is not all.”

The Dangsan tree is a tree that protects the village and brings good luck.

With the World Tree in better condition, the Elven Forest will become much more prosperous.

This was a fact that could be known just by looking at the state of the souls currently attached to the World Tree.

The soul that died after eating well and living well was very pretty.

“He has accumulated a lot of virtue again.”

I think we’ll be lucky for the time being.

“I guess we’re ready now.”

Paramon looked at me and Serena as if he was displeased.

“Have you all exchanged greetings?”

“Yes. I finished it just now.”

“Haha, if it were me, I would have stayed here.”

We were already ready to go back.

As the inspiration says, it is comfortable to live here.

The elves were all friendly to me, and I could probably make a decent living here without having to work for the rest of my life.

This would have been possible if I had not become a shaman in the future.

“I want to do that too… but I can’t move the shrine.”

The place where the new temple is located is not an ordinary place.

A place that was directly occupied.

It was a place that had a lot of meaning to me.

“I see. Let’s go now. Have you met Irene?”

“Yes. You seem very busy.”

“That would be so. The elves have also formed a pursuit party.”

Irene was very angry.

He gave me a brief greeting and left, saying he would pursue the necromancer’s trail.

Leading other elves.

“It originally had a wind-like personality. It seemed to have existed since ancient times, but then disappeared.”

“Hmm…”

I started walking, following the inspiration of Paramon.

“Roselle and I will be busy when we return.”

Even without that, Old Clocell had been muttering for quite some time.

They say that in the later years of retirement, you will go through all the hardships.

The necromancers have reappeared, and it can’t be helped that we’re the ones encountering them first.

“I have something to ask you.”

“To me?”

“Aren’t there a lot of monsters coming for this battle?”

“That’s what it was.”

“I don’t see a single orc among the monsters. Can you tell me the reason for this by fortune telling?”

Now that I think about it, all kinds of monsters came, but it seems like there were no orcs.

“…”

When you say orc, something comes to mind.

The orc who ran away after stealing my money.

That guy was also carrying quite a big burden.

Judging by the size of the damage he received at that time, he must have been one of the largest orcs.

“It’s a little ambiguous…”

“I see you already know something.”

I had a feeling it wasn’t related to the gulag.

This wasn’t the direction he should have been heading.

Considering the location of the cliff where we met the gully, the direction we came down by air was the exact opposite.

“I don’t think it has anything to do with what I know. I’ll try it once I get to the shrine.”

Judging from the vague feeling I got as soon as I heard the inspiration, it seems unlikely that the fortune telling will come out.

It seems like the spirits don’t really care.

“Please. Please prepare the lottery separately.”

As we walked and talked, we saw some elves gathered in a quiet empty space.

Among them, inspiration Clocell stood proudly.

“With just this one, you can get to the spirit world in no time.”

The old man’s shoulders were shaking as if he was so proud of that warp magic.

“Sir, what kind of flower is that?”

Clocelle was holding a bouquet of yellow flowers.

The inspiration answered my question with a smile.

“I heard there’s someone who likes flowers…they’re blooming exceptionally beautifully.”

The tone was somewhat lonely, uncharacteristic of an inspiration.

I wanted to ask more, but it didn’t seem like he would really answer.

Clocelle was the first to speak.

“Will no one die this time?”

“Yes. I don’t think anything will happen.”

This time there were no nightmares or ominous omens.

Rather, I felt glad because it seemed like I had chosen the right day.

As I was walking towards the warp magic circle, Romenel approached me.

“Chris.”

In her hand was clutched a small pouch.

“This is in return for your request.”

“Ah… that’s right.”

Come to think of it, I made a formal request to protect the World Tree.

I think that pocket contains what the inspirations were talking about.

“I put in the fruit of the World Tree. I also put in other things you might need.”

“Whoa…!!”

Exclamations of admiration soon erupted from the inspirations.

“The fruit of the World Tree…?”

Old Man Clocell, who read my puzzled expression, immediately added an explanation with an excited look.

“If a wizard or knight eats it, they can obtain a lot of mana at once. If you eat it, you will never have to worry about getting sick again.”

I guess this is why I was worried that I would get sick.

Seeing Old Man Clocel talking about it as if it were some kind of legendary fruit, I could tell it was quite a precious item.

Could this really be the legendary fruit that only blooms once every five hundred years?

Romenel put a pouch in my hand.

“Huh…?”

Precious items originally have owners.

It means that fate is connected.

As soon as I received the bag, I could feel it.

This is not my stuff.

“I don’t think I can accept this?”

“It’s for you, Chris, so don’t feel burdened.”

I guess he felt that I was deliberately rejecting him.

Romenel, with a gentle smile on his face, put down his pocket and stepped back from me.

“No, that’s not it…”

“Here you go again. Go ahead.”

Pharamon seemed to have sensed my intentions and urged me on.

The gleaming eyes threatened me, telling me not to even think about rejecting her.

“Do you not know what the World Tree means to the elves? It is something you deserve.”

“It’s not that I don’t want to receive it… Sera… Serena?”

Serena pushed my back.

Towards the warp magic circle.

“Uh…uh…just a minute!”

It happened in an instant, as if I had been kidnapped.

Light flashed as mana was sucked into the magic circle.

“Peace be with you, Chris!”

Flash –

***

Saaaaak –

In an instant, the scenery before my eyes changed.

A familiar sight.

My house is built simply.

And the elders and the evil spirits including the head of the visible graveyard.

They were looking at us with surprised eyes.

It’s back.

“Huh…you ended up…”

“Tsk tsk…Why can’t you eat it even if I give it to you? You’re a frustrating friend.”

“…yes?”

The two inspirations were looking at my hands.

A thick branch tucked under his side and one empty hand.

It was the hand that had been holding the pocket until just now.

“…I knew this would happen.”

The pocket was already gone.

Of course, it is not worth even a penny.

Even if you only play lottery, the limit is 5 silver.

Where did you get the branch of the world tree?

More than that···.

“Why did you follow me…?”

“Are you talking about me?”

“No, Hans, not you, Serena.”

“…”

Serena didn’t say anything about following me, but she secretly followed me.

Is it okay for the high elves to follow me here if they aren’t in the forest?

Old Man Clocell must have known that Serena had entered the warp magic circle…

“…No? You came with me too?”

Nod.

Clocell was pretending to be a fool.

The sinister expression on his face was quite unpleasant.

“ha…”

“We’ll take our leave now.”

“Already?”

The inspirations moved their bodies.

“I think I should go to the palace. This is no ordinary matter…”

“There’s nothing I can do.”

I don’t mind going, but I have a favor to ask of you, Inspiration Clocell.

My house is small with only two rooms.

A new temple and my bedroom.

Serena needed a place to stay.

“Sir, is Serena going to stay…”

“Hmm… I’m busy so I’ll stop here…”

“I will also go to the palace with Roselle.”

“Inspiration…?”

Paramon’s inspiration grabbed Hans.

“Shouldn’t you go to church too?”

“No. The Master is with Chris…. Keuk…!”

Chuuk –

Hans’ body limply fell towards Father Paramon.

“I heard Hans is going to the church too.”

“I just saw you faint…?”

“Roselle, let’s go. It’s busy at one o’clock.”

That’s a lie.

The faces of the inspirations did not look busy at all.

If you were really busy, you wouldn’t have dragged Hans around like that, you would have just used magic to make him fly away.

The inspirations quickly disappeared, leaving only Serena and I behind.

“….”

“….”

“…Shall we eat first?”

Nod.
