Episode 141: Nutrients for metal roots

“Did you see it now?”

Joseph asked in surprise and then realized he had missed it.

There was no benefit in letting Cheon Doun know about the efficacy of the branches of the World Tree.

‘I’m sure you’ve already noticed that that’s a branch of the World Tree. Still, it’s a small branch at best. ‘You’ll think you don’t have this kind of ability.’

Let’s take a chance later and replace it with a similar-looking eggplant.

Joseph’s mind was busy. Cheon Do-un quietly stared at Joseph.

“Didn’t you say something just now?”

“What do you mean?”

“I said did you see it? “What are you looking at?”

“Oh, it looks like a bird passed under that tree.”

Joseph cleared his throat and stood up.

He knew there was no way he would believe such a lie.

But what can you do if you say you’re going to play it off?

‘The tip of the wand glowed for just a moment. ‘I just have to remain ignorant.’

Joseph smiled inwardly in conversion.

“I guess you’re not going to tell me.”

“So what do you mean?”

Joseph played it cool until the end. At that, Cheon Do-un put his hand into his arms.

‘joy. No matter what I bring out, it’s no use. ‘I won’t pass this time.’

I thought about it. However, Joseph’s mouth opened when he saw the item that Cheon Do-un had taken out.

“Well, that’s my… !”

Joseph’s observation journal. He wrote his own notes. Why does that come from there?

‘Yes, that’s right! I put that note in the safe too!’

If he had obtained the branches and leaves of the World Tree, it was natural that the notes in the same safe would also have fallen into Cheon Do-woon’s hands.

“There are a lot of interesting stories here. “It’s a waste to watch it alone.”

“W-what does that mean?”

“I’m thinking of sending it to a publisher so more people can see it. how is it?”

Joseph turned as white as a man with a knife stuck in his throat.

For someone who wanted to monopolize knowledge, it was like a lightning strike.

“If you call it an old-fashioned research journal, it will sell well. Do you know anything? “I wonder if it will become a bestseller.”

Ah, does this mean that your blood pressure is rising?

Joseph stumbled as he felt his eyes turning white.

I really felt like I would have fallen if Manager Kim hadn’t been next to me to hold me up.

“If you don’t want this published, tell me. “What did you see?”

Joseph groaned.

Will we monopolize old knowledge? Will you monopolize the knowledge you now have?

Joseph suffered psychologically in the face of that tug-of-war.

“me… “There was light on the tree branches.”

Joseph decided to preserve knowledge of the past.

There is a high possibility that Cheondo-un will also learn about the branches of the World Tree over time.

In that case, it would be better to keep even your own old knowledge from spreading.

“After being hit by Dodaki’s cane, the arthritis pain disappeared. We’ll have to investigate whether it’s temporary or completely cured… .”

Now that things have come to this, let’s say that we will investigate the branches of the World Tree.

Once you receive it, you don’t have to return it because the investigation is taking longer.

“About that twig.”

“no.”

“I haven’t said anything yet!”

“Nothing is possible.”

Ah, I really want to hit you. Joseph clenched his fists and trembled.

Cheon Do-un saw the cane holding Dodaki.

“It’s healing power. “It had interesting effects.”

We’ll have to wait and see what the activation conditions are, but it looks like it could be quite useful.

“I’m just going back now. “What are you going to do?”

“I will stop by the slums and come see you. “The metal root nutritional supplement has been completed.”

“okay? That’s good news. See you later then.”

Cheon Do-un opened the gate with the Hearthstone and entered.

As the surroundings became quiet, Joseph pressed his eyebrows together.

“I… Really really someday. “I will definitely hit that guy in the back of the head.”

It is a wish that is difficult to achieve even if it lasts a lifetime.

Therefore, it was a wish that became even more earnest.

* * *

Joseph and Manager Kim stopped by the store and picked up medicine.

After opening the gate, we arrived at the yard of Cheon Do-un’s house.

Joseph paused when he saw the laboratory building outside the yard.

‘Am I seeing something wrong?’

I rubbed my eyes and looked again, but nothing changed.

The research center, which was supposed to be in the greenbelt, was next to Cheon Do-un’s house.

“What is this… Why is that here… .”

“I dug it up. “I want to take my time looking around the inside.”

What are you digging? A building? Joseph’s face became astonished.

Manager Kim was equally surprised, but he quickly nodded.

The opponent is Cheon Do-un. When I told him that he had done something extraordinary like digging up a building, people immediately nodded.

Of course, Joseph wasn’t just purely impressed.

‘no. There are more materials I hid in that lab… I have to see the opportunity and take him out first.’

Let’s look calm for now. Joseph tried to pretend that nothing had happened and turned his head.

“Did you bring any nutritional supplements?”

“of course.”

“okay. Then get ready.”

Cheon Do-un picked up a greenhouse in the garden and dug up metal roots.

-Huh?

– Huh, huh?

As I dug up the weakest root, the roots around me stuck out their heads.

Joseph saw it from behind and his eyes sparkled. He finally saw inside the greenhouse.

‘That’s what the inside of the greenhouse looks like.’

A cozy place with several hot packs. In some ways, it’s not that big of a deal.

But just seeing the natural mandragora basking there made Joseph’s heart pound.

Cheon Do-un dug up the metal roots and covered the greenhouse again.

-Whoa, whoa!

In it, roots walked out in a row through the greenhouse entrance.

I quickly follow him out and look up at Cheon Do-un. He seemed worried about the metal roots, which were becoming increasingly gaunt.

“Give me some nutritional supplements.”

At Cheon Do-un’s words, Joseph took out a can of cream.

However, instead of handing it over, he looked at Cheon Do-un with a triumphant look on his face.

“There is a separate order for applying this nourishing cream.”

“order?”

“yes. order. I dissolved the formula in the cream so that it would seep into the metal. “If you don’t massage in that order, it won’t be absorbed.”

The order in which you rub, how hard you press, and the acupressure points you need to hit.

You had to follow them sequentially to be absorbed.

“It’s complicated and difficult to explain in words. “I will do it.”

Joseph proudly held out his hand.

All of this is a plan to massage Mandragora.

Even if you ask Cheon Do-un, he won’t give you a massage anyway.

Knowing that, this is the method I came up with. The formula was dissolved into the cream.

“I don’t think you’re lying.”

Cheon Doun handed over the metal root to him.

Joseph caught his breath and sat down in the chair.

Just like Cheon Do-un had done before, he placed the metal root on his lap.

-Huh… ?

Metal Root looked up at Joseph with subtle eyes.

“It’s a small root. Don’t look at me like that. “They tell me to make this allowance too.”

Joseph stretched out his hand with a kind face.

-Huh… !

Postdoc. Metal roots swung the fine roots. Joseph did not give in. This much was what he expected.

‘The reason the Mandragoras follow Number 17 so well is because they recognize him as a member of their own race. It’s probably because the power of the World Tree completely fused the Mandragora cells.’

But Joseph was different.

Even though the cell transplant was the same, the roots in the garden felt something strange about Joseph.

The resulting hostility was inevitable.

‘Fine root attacks are resistant to the expected level. My purpose for today is… That’s it!’

Joseph spread the cream with his fingers. He applied it to the body of the metal root.

This was the beginning.

ship, ship. Arm roots, arm roots. Head, head.

Joseph’s fingers moved dazzlingly.

-Huh, huh? Huh… ?

The metal root frowned and struggled. It was a completely different reaction from when Cheon Do-woon gave me a massage.

Unlike moisturizing creams, this nutritional cream has a thick, unpleasant smell.

It couldn’t have felt good when it was applied all over my body.

“Stay still. ruler. Now back… ouch. Don’t bite. “It hurts because you’re metal.”

Joseph laid down the metal root and massaged his back.

-Huh… !

do not do that. feel bad. The metal roots swung the fine roots.

Joseph’s feet twitched as he hit his knee.

“Well, it will end soon, so stay still!”

The back is here like this. Now the long-awaited foot massage remains.

“It’s going to be a little itchy in here, so be patient.”

-Huh, huh!

Joseph massaged the soles of the metal roots with his thumbs, just as Cheon Do-un once did.

Each time, the metal roots chewed on Joseph’s pants.

It’s not because it tickles. It was a scream of anger to express that he was in a bad mood.

-Huh!

-Help, hehe!

Before he knew it, the roots of the garden had gathered at Joseph’s feet.

The garden entities became enraged by the cries of the youngest metal root and began to attack Joseph.

The root struck Joseph hard on his ankle.

-Beep!

The judge also sneakily got between the roots and attacked Joseph.

For Sasa, mandragora is his own snack.

Degrading the quality of the snack by harassing it was unforgivable.

-Beep, beep!

The judge whipped his head around and hit Joseph on the ankle with the flower.

The garden creatures who saw this also waved their roots as if they could not be defeated.

Pap-dak-pap-dak, bung, bung, slap.

A massive, fierce attack rained down on Joseph’s ankles.

“S-stop it. “I’m not wearing socks!”

Joseph’s defenseless and exposed ankles were attacked intensively by the four-rooted Mandragora.

He was helpless against Sasa’s flower-spinning attack.

Joseph stepped away with a complicated look on his face. Every time, the roots and the magistrates chased after him and launched a fierce attack.

‘this… ‘This isn’t it.’

The Mandragora massage time of your dreams.

I definitely had a dreamy time last night.

He was smiling happily while massaging Mandragora.

Being beaten like this without a hitch was not something he had expected.

‘ji… ‘I can’t lose!’

No matter how much I get hit, I can’t give up here. Joseph’s hand movements became faster.

“The leaves look like this… ! Spread your arms here like this… ! “Take plenty of this highly nutritious cream!”

-Huh… !

“Joe, just a little longer… “It’s all done!”

Joseph took a deep breath and wiped his forehead.

As the hand restraining him disappeared, the metal root jumped to the floor.

The garden Mandragoras took the metal roots and hid them behind themselves.

Formation E. Mandragora circular defense.

The roots stand in a round shape facing outward. He placed the metal root in the circle and slowly walked back.

-Beep!

For some reason, Judge was also included in the formation and was glaring at Joseph.

The Mandragoras entered the greenhouse with metal roots.

-Huh!

The largest Mandragora roared at Joseph and entered last.

-Beep!

The judge also roared and then quietly entered the greenhouse.

Successfully infiltrated Sasa.

Taking advantage of the chaos caused by the large-scale battle, the judge entered the greenhouse.

Joseph looked at the scene blankly. It was a time of glory where the dream came true but there was only scars.

“Did you like it?”

Cheon Do-un asked. If you show disappointment here, you will lose. He nodded his head with difficulty.

Cheon Do-un looked at Joseph and sat down on the chair across from him.

“That guy’s body is cold because it’s metal.”

It was like that. It was cold.

“It’s hard.”

It was like that. It was hard.

“I think it felt like I was holding a root-shaped iron rod rather than a mandragora.”

“Ugh… !”

Joseph groaned as he was faced with the truth he had tried so hard to deny.

It was like that. She didn’t have the feel of the mandragora she had hoped for.

It felt like I had just dabbed cream on the cold, root-shaped metal.

‘This kind of thing… ‘This is not a Mandragora massage.’

Joseph stared into space with a white, burnt face. Cheon Do-un poured tea for him.

Why does this guy show such favor? Normally, I would have suspected that.

However, Joseph, who was beaten both physically and mentally, just drank the tea gratefully.

“If you give Mandragora a massage, the roots will become soft.”

“Ma, mallang?”

Joseph’s eyes widened. He himself doesn’t know that.

He had been working with Mandragora for a long time, but the roots he saw were always stiff.

Mandragora was ready for battle.

“I guess it’s because the massage relieves tension. That feeling is… okay. “It feels like a balloon filled with flour.”

“Fu, flour in a balloon.”

What on earth does that feel like? The corners of Joseph’s eyes fluttered.

“In particular, there are times when Dodak falls asleep while receiving a massage. If so… .”

“Well, what if that happens?”

Cheon Do-woon’s eyes turned to Dodak.

Dodak was moving around on the table, twirling his cane as if he liked it.

“ah. okay. “If I use this cane, I might be able to remove the 49 scars on my body.”

“what?”

“The aftereffects from the detonation spell would have been quite significant. “I wonder if something like that can be improved.”

“What is that… for a moment. Why are you suddenly talking like an idiot? What if you fall asleep during a massage? “What happens when you fall asleep!”

No answer came back. Cheon Do-un, who was carrying Dodaki on his shoulder, had already left.

When Joseph saw that, his body trembled.

I forgot about it because they kindly poured me some tea. This car was meant to prank people.

“Hey… ! “You bastard!”

That guy is a really bad guy.

Joseph thought with wide eyes.
