Even though I knew the trick, that didn’t mean I had perfect control.

It was the same when I gained powers at the top.

Even after obtaining his power, Lee Han had been training steadily, and thanks to that he was able to use his power so freely.

So, once he learned the trick of using divine power, he immediately focused on training.

“Isn’t this enough to be proficient?”

Fortunately, the Hwinangsi Territory was a good environment for training.

This was because there were many diseased crops.

“Treating plants is easy, but treating animals is a bit difficult.”

Of course, it wasn’t impossible.

However, compared to treating plants, it consumes a lot of divine power.

Lee Han shrugged his shoulders in regret, thinking that it would be better to just use a potion at this point.

“Mr. Lee Han!”

While Lee Han was resting and drinking water after finishing treating the sick crops in the Hwinangsi Marquisate, there were people calling out to him.

He was a servant of the mansion.

“Shredder is looking for you!”

“Is that so? I guess I should go soon.”

Seol-i jumped lightly and climbed onto Lee-han’s shoulder.

The servants who saw him coming out of the field had bright expressions on their faces.

Before Lee Han arrived, everyone was depressed because of the food problem.

But that’s just an old story.

It was only natural that the food problem would disappear as he cured the diseases in the wheat and other fields.

“Thank you! Thank you!”

“No. You all have worked hard. You will have to work hard from now on.”

“Hahaha! Now that our kids have plenty to eat, of course we have to work hard!”

As one of the workers laughed loudly and shouted, the surrounding elves laughed and agreed.

Lee Han, who liked their bright appearance, smiled faintly and followed the servants.

As soon as he arrived at the mansion, Lee Han headed straight to the library and encountered Shredder running towards him with an excited expression.

“Did you find something?”

“Hey! Look at this!”

What Shredder handed me was a pretty old book.

When he showed a book full of letters that were unknown to be written in an ancient language, the explanation on Lee Han’s shoulder read the contents.

“Let’s see… … When a new Pope is inaugurated, the Pope will meet with the Goddess Gaia in the ceremonial room. By doing so, the Pope will be granted a sacred relic unique to the Pope and will be able to use the graces bestowed by the Goddess… … .”

‘So that’s the room of consciousness?’

When he grew the wind tree, Lee Han recalled the pure white space he had entered.

If that is the room of consciousness, then the contents of this book will be true.

“So that statue of the goddess is Lee Han-man’s sacred relic?”

“You could say that. According to the records, the holy relic obtained at that time is said to be the most precious holy relic of the Gaia Church. It is said that the holy relic is destroyed when the Pope dies, as it shares life with him.”

“It could be said that being able to control divine power is also a blessing from the goddess.”

Information about new powers is coming in.

As he listened to the translation by Shredder and the explanation, Lee Han looked at his hands.

“Then, can you tell me a little bit about how to utilize divine power?”

“Hmm. It’s difficult with just the information here. The most representative one is treating plants, so that can be used.”

“yes.”

“Besides that, there is a common part that it is effective against the undead… … .”

“Shredder. You’ve been investigating a lot of human remains. Have you found anything about the Gaia Cult?”

“There are a few, but they’re mostly related to divine powers. Oh, and I heard they’re also helpful in fighting monsters.”

It wasn’t very nutritious information.

But that didn’t disappoint Lee Han.

Just being able to cure plant diseases would be a huge help.

“Hey. But if you cure the plant disease, won’t the forces of chaos not stay still?”

“It must have already been taken.”

Lee Han didn’t really care.

As he said, not only is his relationship with the forces of chaos not very good, he has already clashed with them.

Is that all?

The mere presence of the World Tree and Lee Han was enough to make the fight against the forces of chaos worthwhile.

What’s the point of treating plant diseases in such a situation?

“That’s true. Hmm. Anyway, when I return to the Great Forest, I’ll have to investigate some more information. I’ll also go to the Witch’s Library and check out Jones’s collection.”

“You’ll have a hard time.”

“It’s nothing special, just something like this.”

It’s for Lee Han’s sake, so why bother doing some research?

Shredder grinned and patted him on the back. Hongryeon, who had been watching them, got up from where she was lying.

“So are we going back?”

“What… …Since everything I set out to do has been completed? Lee Han. What about you?”

“Hmm… … It’s a shame to just go back.”

“Why? Are you trying to farm?”

I brought quite a bit of wheat seeds just in case.

Hongryeon tilted her head, thinking that since Lee Han had cured Mil’s disease, there was no need to farm.

“The food prices in the Hwinangsi territory have stabilized, but that doesn’t mean the same can be said for other places. I’m thinking about getting some help from Pyron. And I’m also thinking about checking out other territories.”

Crops in the estates of the nobles, except for the current Marquis of Calois and those closely associated with him, were falling ill.

And the Marquis of Calois was using it as an excuse to take advantage of it.

Since I wasn’t on good terms with Marquis Caloitz anyway, I thought it would be better to use my strength here.

“Okay. Well. If you want to do it, I won’t stop you.”

Marquis Pyron accepted Yihan’s offer to grow wheat on his lands.

Even from his perspective as a royalist noble, the growing power of the Marquis of Caloitz was not a good thing.

Therefore, there was no reason for Lee Han to refuse the offer to sell wheat at a reasonable price.

“I just wonder if it might be too much for you, Lee Han… … .”

“It’s not that big of a deal. And I plan to make similar suggestions elsewhere.”

I plan to farm in Eric’s Higgs Estate and Sailor’s Hwarien Estate and ask them to sell food to me.

With these three locations, it should be easy to sell food to territories that are short on food.

“If Mr. Lee Han sells food like that, the power of Marquis Caloitz will be greatly shaken. Is that what you are aiming for?”

“yes.”

“The forest exploration team he runs will be greatly weakened.”

If it becomes known that Daesurim’s Lee Han was the one who solved the food problem by producing wheat, then the number of people who contribute to Daesurim exploration will decrease, even if only out of consideration for his kindness.

Pyron nodded, thinking about what would happen next.

“Would you please leave the political issues that arise in the future to me? I will move in a direction that benefits you, Mr. Lee Han.”

“Please take care of that part.”

Because I wasn’t interested in the kingdom’s political affairs anyway.

After finishing his brief story, Lee Han immediately stood up from his seat.

“Then shall we go and start making the field?”

“Yes. I recruit people.”

As soon as the story was over, Marquis Pyron gathered his soldiers.

Since they are all working hard, it will be easy for them to make fields.

Lee Han took them to the wide plains of Yeongji.

Because it was an area with a lot of flat land, there was plenty of land suitable for farming.

“This will do, Shredder. Let’s do this together.”

“Ooh.”

The water people and elves, including Shredder, joined forces.

After creating a field with their help, Lee Han planted wheat and then displayed his talents.

“oh my god…….”

“oh my god…….”

“God’s blessing! Ohhh… … !!”

Those who saw the seeds sown in the vast field sprout and grow into wheat were astonished.

Some people seek God, others worship Him.

But regardless, Lee Han continued to display his abilities of accelerated growth and enhanced intelligence as if he didn’t care.

“after.”

Lee Han exhaled softly and raised his head.

The vast plains that were once filled with nothing but grass had now turned into golden wheat fields.

Whenever the wind blew, golden waves began to form in a field several times the size of the wheat fields currently in the Hwinangsi Marquisate.

Lee Han, who was looking at it, turned his head and spoke indifferently to those who were worshipping him.

“Okay. Let’s start harvesting.”

Leaving the rejoicing behind, Lee Han and his party boarded the carriage.

Pyron really didn’t want to send him away like that.

“No, what if you just leave like this?! Please, for a week! No, even just for one day, please let me repay you!”

From Pyron’s point of view, it couldn’t be helped.

He is the benefactor who not only saved Yeongji from danger, but also created so much food.

I couldn’t even repay the favor of saving my daughter’s life, but I ended up receiving more favors.

“It’s okay. I have work to do… … Miss Tea. Then I’ll see you next time. I’ll bring Tree with me then.”

“Yes, yes!”

“Take care!”

“Hello~!”

In the end, Lee Han and his group moved immediately, leaving behind Pyron and the Marquis who had not been caught.

When we reached the riverbank and used the Fairy Path to return to the cabin, Shredder immediately packed his bags.

“Then I’ll go to the witch’s library and come back.”

He packs some food and leaves.

Lee Han, who was watching the shredder moving away, unpacked his luggage and put on his straw hat.

“Where are you going?”

“I’m going to go check out the fields. Do you want to come with me?”

“huh.”

Tree also walked with him, wearing a straw hat.

After seeing the barley and hop fields, they headed to the fields where various vegetables were growing.

“You’re growing well.”

“Because I’m taking good care of it.”

Vegetables were growing well in the wide field.

After checking each vegetable one by one, Lee Han approached the statue of the goddess Gaia.

The first statue of the Gaia Goddess I obtained was in pristine condition.

“why?”

“Hmm. Nothing.”

Perhaps because she was recognized as the Pope, the statue of the goddess Gaia looks special.

Lee Han stared at the statue of the goddess and shrugged his shoulders.

“Let us offer more tribute today.”

“Huh? Well. Okay.”

What do you mean when you say you want to pay more tribute?

The tree nodded nonchalantly.

In the evening the family gathered together in the cabin.

While everyone was eating noisily, Lee Han took a sip of soup and said.

“I’m planning to go to Higgs Estate and Hwarien Estate.”

“when?”

“Well, not right now. I have some time to spare… … maybe when the barley harvest is over?”

“Are you thinking of going alone?”

“I’m just planning on doing some work and coming back, so I’m going to go with Seongryung.”

“Be careful. The forces of chaos will know that you have moved.”

He spoke in a tone of worry as he tasted the hamburger steak, which he had sliced ​​elegantly and put into his mouth.

No matter how strong Lee Han was, the forces of chaos were something that Yong could never underestimate.

“Don’t worry! I’ll go too!”

“Then that’s a relief… … Hmm. Well, I guess it’s okay. Then… … .”

As the dragon spoke, something was walking in the darkness.

“You were eating.”

“Ah, Mr. Walter. Come and eat with us.”

“No, that’s fine. More importantly, someone will come looking for you.”

“Huh? Me?”

Was there anyone coming? Walter smiled brightly at Lee Han, who tilted his head.

“We are the dwarves who pride ourselves on being your teachers.”
