I Can See Your Code

I see your code (148)

“… … .”

There was a brief silence in the room. It was a low-pitched laugh that broke it after a while.

“Are you saying that he has the energy that the World Tree lacks?”

Andras, who had a bewildered expression on his face, asked as if exasperated. At that, I nodded my head while maintaining a sullen face.

“You got it right. You are what you said.”

“It sounds like you’re saying you’re some otherworldly being.”

For a moment, I thought that was not the right word. Even though the body belongs to this place, the soul is from Earth. I didn’t mean to say it that way, though.

“It is not. The energy I was talking about is a matter that definitely exists in this world.”

“… … Do you mean that you know of a substance that has not been discovered by thousands of scholars for hundreds of years, that it exists in this world?”

“You got it right this time. I didn’t know exactly, but I said I already have it.”

I shrugged and sat down on the sofa in front of the table with the flask stretched out.

“I can confirm you right away without having to talk like this.”

“… … .”

Andras kept his mouth shut with a suspicious look. I decided it was impossible with my head, but it seems that I am a little confused because my attitude is too imposing.

At that moment, Duilan, who was silently observing the situation, interrupted the conversation.

“Does that mean you have it?”

Is it really supposed to be 1 elder? It was a sharp point. Usually, of course, I would think of material things.

“It would be difficult to see it as Soji. It’s a kind of energy I have.”

“I’m not talking about magic.”

“of course. Because the 5th Elder also said that he had already experimented with magical powers in the first place.”

Andras widened his eyes at my words.

“… … It’s the first time I’ve ever heard of an energy other than magic.”

“So, isn’t it that only we can solve it? If anyone knew the truth, they wouldn’t have come forward like this.”

When asked with a smile, Andras frowned slightly. This time, Duylan, who was still silent, opened his mouth immediately.

“Isn’t it enough to just experiment with what that person said without making such a fuss?”

“… … 1 Do you believe that elder?”

“There is nothing to believe or not. At least we can end this non-productive conversation.”

Then Duylan put the flesh of the world tree in an empty flask and handed it to me.

“If you need a separate preparation process, you can talk to me now.”

“Did I not tell you clearly? I can confirm it right away.”

He grinned and lifted the flask that was handed to him. For perfect experimental conditions, the inside was in a vacuum with nothing magical.

I don’t even need to do this. Anyway, can it be considered good in that there is no room for other words to intervene? Because I don’t need to explain anything about it.

With that in mind, I immediately drew up my strength from the inside without any irritation. Now, thanks to his fully proficient control ability, the energy seeps into the flesh of the World Tree without any delay.

passersack.

“That… … !”

Andras, who had a skeptical gaze, vomited in surprise. This is because the part that had withered not long after I touched it was quickly restored. He still spoke with a look of disbelief.

“What kind of power is that… … .”

“I call it psychic power.”

I said as I put down the flask with the now completely green flesh of the World Tree.

“It is also called the power of the source. It is a word that no one uses now.”

“… … Is this the energy that the World Tree lacks in whether it is the origin or the soul?”

“Have you not seen it with your own eyes?”

You shrugged, saying what would you do if you didn’t believe it? Andras said nothing, perhaps because it was true that he had seen the World Tree recover. It was followed by Duilan.

“I have been living for quite some time, but this is the first time I have heard of such an energy in the world. Can I ask for an explanation if it’s okay with you?”

“I’m sorry, but that’s a bit difficult. This is also my foundation.”

And that wouldn’t be a big deal. What is urgent for the elves right now is the route they can obtain rather than the efficacy of the psychic power.

As expected, Duilan nodded her head without asking twice.

“You can’t force it on someone who has already told you a few important facts. Information is one of the most important resources in the world. If we can save the World Tree, that is enough.”

“That’s all I can say in a simple way.”

“Then can I ask you a favor?”

“All right.”

I got up from my seat and said quietly.

“Lands containing psychic powers are in the anthill, one of the prohibitions.”

After my speech, the reaction that came out was divided into two main parts.

The human side tilts their head as if they’ve heard it for the first time, and the elf side looks astonished whether they already knew it.

He looked at both of them and smiled.

I said I’d give you a route to get to, but I never said it would be easy.

“What is an anthill? I’m sure it doesn’t mean the house where real ants live.”

On the way home from a meeting at Andras’ house. Arina immediately asked me if I had been holding on to my questions. I glanced at him once and hurried his steps.

“It’s a house where real ants live. They’re just a little bigger than the average ones.”

“… … How much is that little bit?”

“About ten times your body size?”

Arina paused for a moment as she imagined an ant ten times larger than herself. And then soon he shudders.

“It’s not a little bit! Why am I the first to hear of such a thing?”

“Because they are only here in the land of the elves, and the elves are an exclusive race. There are probably a lot more cases like this on the continent than you think.”

“But how does Rihanna know all that?”

“You know what I will answer?”

“Are you just going to do it?”

“right.”

As always, I turned around and continued walking. I hear a few grunts from behind, then quickly catch up to the side.

“like. It’s just that Rihanna knew about it. But why do we have to follow him there?”

“You don’t have to follow me.”

“Still, my name is Immun, how are you doing? If Rihanna goes, I will go too.”

You seem to have more responsibility than you think. By now, I thought I might have forgotten that it was my duty.

I sighed slightly and said.

“I’m the only one who can use that spirit power in the world. In short, I’m the only one who can find the land it contains. How is it, easy to understand?”

“… … I understand.”

Arina was still speechless as if she was still dissatisfied with something.

I paused for a moment and looked at him.

To be honest, I can’t figure out why he’s doing this.

Even if you don’t know yourself, you wouldn’t feel any emotions towards the World Tree as you are a half-elf, right?

In fact, it’s more natural for him to ask me for help first. It’s common for elves to lose their reason in relation to the world tree. It’s not for nothing that I call it the World Sutangs.

There wouldn’t be much difference in the settings… … Is this one of the changes from the game?

I was suddenly curious and asked.

“Can you feel anything when you look at that tree?”

“What tree… … . Ah, world demand?”

“yes. Whether you just want to go and hug… … .”

Arina looked at me with a strange expression.

“Lian-sama, is it like that when you see a tree? For now, I will respect your taste.”

“I’m not asking if I am, but you are not. Don’t you get the thought of wanting to go and prune if it’s a little bit of a hug?”

Arina still stared at me like a madman, checked my serious face and nodded reluctantly.

“… … To be honest, it’s a little bit like that. I don’t know if it’s pruned, but should I say it feels cozy when I see something?”

“Is not it? I just want to heal you and I don’t want you to get hurt, right?”

“… … Yes. Why are you more excited than that?”

I wasn’t very excited. I was just a little worried that the setting itself as a half-elf might have changed.

“I’m just curious. You and the elf have more in common than you think. For example, they like to eat meat equally.”

“If one likes meat and has a lot in common, it’s safe to say that giants and elves are the same race.”

“… … How can you not say a word?”

“Because your job is to earn money through your mouth.”

Since when did the priest become a job earning money? I left behind the questions that came to mind and asked the guy again.

“Anyway, you mean you feel something special about the World Tree, right? But why do you seem to have a lot of dissatisfaction since the duel? They are all doing this to save the world tree.”

“… … Have you ever felt uncomfortable because you were constantly frowning next to me?”

“I’m not trying to ask, I’m just asking. I wonder if there is any reason.”

At my words, Arina hesitated for a moment, then sighed a little.

“It was because I was worried about Rihanna.”

“I?”

“yes.”

It wasn’t unexpected. Actually, what Arina has been talking about has been about my safety. The problem is that

After thinking a little bit, I came up with a topic that was unattractive.

“Do you remember what you said about half a year ago?”

“Half a year ago?”

“What the dessert shop said was a lie.”

I thought I would be startled even for a moment, but Arina said in a calm voice without hesitation.

“Ah, was it a lie that I like Rian-sama, or was it a lie to say that it was a lie?”

“… … Yes, that.”

“How old is that? Of course I remember. But why all of a sudden?”

I opened my mouth, observing the boy’s expression carefully.

“I wonder if you really like me… … .”

“Suddenly talking about trees?”

Arina interrupted me and answered. A look of embarrassment is evident on his face.

“It’s because you don’t know what yet. I can’t explain it right now, but if it’s the same, it’s normal for me to force myself to save the world tree, even if I don’t like it.”

There are usually only two ways to get out of it. That’s the world number. That is, when you like the other person as much as your parents or more than your parents.

Arina asked with an absurd face as if she still did not understand my intentions.

“What kind of normal thing is there? In the first place, Rian-sama was only brought to my mission.”

“It’s a matter of emotion rather than reason. Did you see the faces of the elves inside when I said that I cut the world tree? Even though Elder 1 and Elder 5 are helping me like that now, they both looked at me like they were going to kill me at the time.”

“I wonder what kind of relationship I have with that elf… … .”

Arina sighed and then continued.

“Anyway, if that’s the case, don’t worry. I like plants, but I’m not a psycho who believes that trees are more important than people.”

“… … okay?”

I felt a little relieved and started walking again. It seems that the love for the world tree has just dropped a little more than the original setting.

It’s not like that’s not the case at all. Even if it didn’t change with the game, it could happen enough. For example, I liked the newly planted orange tree in the yard so much that I became more attached to it than the World Tree.

As I was walking, not taking it seriously, Arina behind me followed me again.

“Then why don’t you ask questions?”

“What questions are you asking?”

“The first thing you asked was about half a year ago.”

Oh, that.

“It is now. Because the answer is no different. It was just a joke.”

“… … How do you come to that conclusion now?”

I don’t know if I really liked the World Tree, but I didn’t know, because I didn’t.

I was just about to explain it so kindly.

Aww!

A magic that suddenly flew out of nowhere hit me and Arina in an instant.
