The great mage who transcends by regression Chapter 209 A
fairy can be said to be a very strange being.
It is difficult to fully understand any country.
Isn’t it even better right now?
Dirge is obviously a fairy born of me, but that doesn’t mean I understand him.
just…more is more
Should I say he’s a guy who seems like he can do anything, but at the same time seems like he can’t do anything?
And now.
– I can’t go on like this!
– Elves call to action!
– Fairy rights guaranteed!
Anyway, those fairies were waving the signposts and shouting.
Clearly, on the outside, the cute and full-bodied thing didn’t feel particularly threatening.
But those eyes!
It is not unusual to see the redness in those eyes.
Those eyes calling for a revolution!
In a way, they look more dangerous than the crazy fairies I saw in the Dark Forest.
“…Yo fairy? is that?”
Eileen and Ariandel opened their eyes wide at the fairies.
“…Is Mikhail always like this?”
“No, of course they weren’t like this….”
It seems that the illusions in the heads of the two have been shattered.
To be honest, I don’t know what these guys are screaming at.
fairy economy? common fairy?
You guys don’t have anything like that.
what do you want to do
As I stared at it with such a question, a number of fairies who had been shouting with signposts rushed in.
– oh! Chosen Companion!
The fairies’ eyes were focused on Dirge, who was on my shoulder.
– Ahem!
when did you come out
Dirge puffed proudly on my shoulder.
– Advent of Heroes!
– Oh oh! great leader!
Stop the ominous words of being a leader!
It’s like a dangerous word in many ways!
‘…No, don’t panic.’
I managed to get my mind together.
It’s Dirge’s trap.
What am I going to do when I’m confused?
“A new friend?”
– day 1 from today!
“Oh yes.”
1 day…yes it’s day 1
Well, it can be.
rather good
“Ask what the hell is going on with your great communication skills.”
– I understand!
As Dirge said, the dodo jumped off my shoulder and ran to the other fairies.
– Ask for an explanation!
– Fewer elves!
It was a really simple answer.
Surprisingly, I was able to understand the situation with just that.
“In short, the forest is not properly managed because the number of elves has decreased. The world capital is also in a rough state, so it’s hard for you, fairies, to live.”
“…Did you understand that?”
Eileen looked at me from the side with a ridiculous expression.
I said, pointing to Dirge, who was chattering among the fairies.
“Did he come from me?”
“Yes…?”
“Besides, I have the talent of a druid.”
Recently, I’ve heard too much unnecessary noise, so I’m blocking it altogether, but basically I can hear the voices of fairies and spirits.
Is it interpreted naturally?
So, I could understand roughly what had happened.
Basically, the ecosystem of the fairy forest is maintained by the symbiotic relationship between fairies and elves.
Fairies get joy from communion with elves, and the joy they get is replaced with vitality, making the forest more lively.
Of course, the more elves there are, the more joy the fairies get from communion.
But here’s where a problem arose.
– No elves!
…Yes. no elves
Because all of them escaped, the happiness index of the fairies dropped significantly.
As the elves that cohabited together disappeared, the fairies’ dissatisfaction naturally piled up and it became like this.
Of course, there is no such thing as a fairy economy or a common fairy.
That’s just fairy terminology that you don’t even need to understand, so that’s all… ….
‘Well, even considering that, it’s not something I can just pass on.’
It’s because the actions that a fairy is said to be so innocent seem insignificant, but this is a fairly radical way for a fairy to express dissatisfaction.
“This is what I need to talk to the fairy king about….”
“Is it that serious?”
Ariandel tilted his head.
She said, pokes lightly on the cheek of the fairy who waddled around as if it were cute.
“I don’t think these kids will do anything to get into trouble….”
“Yes, these guys don’t hurt anyone.”
I answered firmly.
“Instead, they hurt themselves.”
“…ah.”
“If fairies disappear like that, the ecosystem naturally collapses, further weakening the deterrence against demons.”
I mean, there’s a relationship there.
This fairy forest is especially important.
It doesn’t matter if you’re on the periphery or not.
For no reason, the center of the elves spread all over the world was not this fairy forest.
Existence itself suppresses evil.
The reason why the World Tree has been able to suppress the remnants of the Demon God for a long time is not only because of her own transcendent spirit and vitality, but also because of this place called ‘Fairy Forest’.
“hurry…I’ll have to work it out.”
“It is.”
If you just leave the fairies saying that they are cute, they can really get hooked.
Even though they seem to be living in peace, they are the ones who play a prominent role in keeping the world positive.
“Hmm hmm.”
I slowly stepped out in front of the chattering fairies.
Then he put Dirge back on my shoulder and said to the fairies.
“Follow the hero here!”
– Oh oh!
The fairies twinkled their eyes.
– The hero of the turbulent times!
Dirge, the Elves’ hero, proudly unfurled a banner in front of the Elves.
flutter!
Red flag with sickle and hammer.
“…hmm.”
I quietly snatched Dudge’s fluttering flag and put it in my bosom.
– master! why steal it!
“Let’s put this aside.”
Revolution only bleeds.
Dirge’s expression was incomprehensible, but he didn’t care.
One day he will understand my heart too.
– Oh oh!
The fairies twinkled and the dodo ran toward Dirge.
The boy also looked at me with his eyes shining.
– Unification of the world!
“Hmm yes. Let it be.”
Well, my fairy should have such grand ambitions.
Anyway, Dirge is quite special.
As was the case in the Dark Forest, this guy is quite talented at relieving other fairies’ anxiety or confusion.
If this guy helps, even if it may not be a complete solution, it should be considered as a first aid measure right away.
– master! thanks for the compliment!
“Mmmmm yes.”
I whispered in a small voice as I stroked Dirge’s head as he stared at me with longing eyes.
“Take them and spread them out in the woods to see if there is anything useless.”
– Anything useless?
“Something that hurts or makes you feel bad when you touch it.”
– Okay!
Dirge has become very smart lately.
It’s really amazing to hear even if you just say this much.
– Confirm your mission!
Dirge saluted me with a stern expression and stampeded through the woods, dragging the elves along.
…you know what to do
Now the fairies will know if there is anything useless and let me know.
‘Of course, it doesn’t seem like the world tree didn’t notice that.’
Wouldn’t it hurt to check it though?
Although it is true that the World Tree is a great existence.
That fairy… ….
That’s great.
Where the hell did they come from?
Anyway, with that thought in mind, I moved toward the palace of the elves, where the fairy king would be located in the depths of the fairy forest.
* * *
The road to the royal palace.
I looked around.
Outwardly, there wasn’t much difference from what I’ve seen before, but the other thing is that the ‘young elves’ are barely visible.
Most of them were elderly elves.
“…There are only really old people.”
“It’s definitely different from before.”
Rihanna and the butler muttered as they watched the scene as if they were interested.
Of course, it wasn’t that there were no young elves at all.
The rangers who protect the forest right now are the same.
However, it is true that the percentage has decreased significantly.
Certainly, it is understandable that the World Tree is worried.
[Yug deserves to be concerned,]
said Set, clicking his tongue.
[No matter what, it’s not strange at all if Yug gets depressed as a result. Isn’t it like the children became independent all at once without any time to prepare their minds?]
“That’s right.”
If you look at the world tree from the perspective of a ‘mother’, it certainly makes sense.
This and that will make your mind complicated.
“Well, let’s talk to the Fairy King for a bit. That will make it clear.”
[Really.]
Of course, it feels like things are going to get twisted.
* * *
“Yo hero!”
As soon as I arrived, the Fairy King, who had been staring into the air like a dead man, jumped up and greeted me.
In the meantime, it must have been a lot of mental trouble, not only both eyes were wide open, but both sides of the face were also sunken.
“You are here! I heard from my mother in advance! welcome!”
“The kingdom is a bit empty.”
I said, recalling the scenery I saw on the way.
It’s not that there aren’t elves.
However, the proportion of ‘young elves’ was greatly reduced.
Most of the rest are old people.
The atmosphere was also a bit subdued.
“It’s because of me!”
The Fairy King sat down and wailed in front of me.
“I talked about it in the mood of the day, but I didn’t expect it to be like that!”
“Couldn’t you have adjusted it a bit?”
Even after saying that, I think I could have prevented an excessive number of people from escaping outside.
“That is….”
At my words, the fairy king’s face immediately darkened.
He began to explain, as if there was no meaning in the helpless deterioration of the situation.
“…The reason the young people of the clan left the forest wasn’t just for selfishness.”
“Unless it is out of selfishness.”
“It’s anxiety.”
I could understand right away.
Anxiety.
They continued to see the World Tree suffering from the remnants of demons.
It is to realize that doing nothing and being still can be a sin.
That’s why the young elves went outside to come up with some sure way.
“As you know, this is not a bad position in terms of protecting your mother, but in the long run…Not good.”
“Hmm.”
That’s true.
The fairy forest can be said to be a good land for elves, but it is not very suitable to keep up with the current rapidly changing situation.
But are you leaving this place?
could it be
This is the land where the world tree, the beginning and mother of the elves, took root.
As long as there is a world tree… ….
This place could only be the center and kingdom of the elves.
“However, the elves cannot abandon this place. But it’s not incomprehensible that young elves must have felt powerless to be alone in the woods.”
“Yes, you are right.”
Saying that, the Fairy King let out a small sigh.
“The problem is that the young people suddenly fell out and the fairies also became anxious. Of course, I’m sure you saw it at the entrance, but… ….”
“I think that is definitely something that needs to be addressed.”
I looked around and asked.
“Is there a jihad?”
“Oh, if that child….”
“Here you are, warrior!”
As soon as I could speak, a voice came from behind me.
“uh.”
Ariandel froze for a moment with her mouth open.
She tilted her head and asked me.
“Mikhail? That one… ….”
“This is Prince Jihad, the successor of the Fairy Forest. That would be quite helpful.”
“Um, that’s right.”
Ariandel looked at Jihad with complicated eyes and muttered.
“This time too….”
“What did you say?”
“…it’s nothing.”
She replied with a wry smile.
…Whatever.
“How about World Tree?”
“Oh he….”
At that, Jihad laughed as if he was troubled and said.
“You’re a little depressed, but.”
“It’s been a problem since then.”
It’s not just the World Tree that’s gloomy, but if you don’t respond properly, the forest itself just seems to be blown away.
‘Does this happen again?’
However, it was also difficult to force the young elves to return to the forest.
Such is the racial characteristic of elves.
order.
They see their actions as following in their own right.
If you try to suppress it, it will only cause a big backlash.
It means that the fairy king didn’t sit by and watch all of this because he had no idea.
So what should I do?
To put it bluntly, it would be more accurate to say that it is the growing pains of the elf race.
It cannot be avoided.
It’s just that growth, which had been suppressed due to the poor condition of the World Tree, suddenly accelerated.
It is natural that there can be no noise in the process.
A lot will change depending on how you respond to this.
“First of all, it was a wise move not to forcefully oppress the clan, Your Highness.”
“that…That’s good.”
If I did that for nothing, it would have caused the division of the elves.
I don’t know if someone is indecisive, but in the end, it’s not a bad decision.
Then first.
“Once I understood roughly what the situation was.
“What would you like to do?”
“I didn’t think of anything before I came here, but….”
Perhaps it would be best to talk to the person responsible before starting the work.
“I think we’ll know the details after talking with the World Tree.”
Yeah, first of all, she’s the one who called me here.
