Chapter 109 World Tree Awakening (2)
[I’m sorry, but may I ask you one more favor?]
The world tree asks with an expectant expression, shining emerald eyes. In response to her question, Jaeyoung shook her head firmly.
“I don’t know what you’re asking, but it’s probably hard for me to listen to.”
world tree.
Originally a transcendent being that exists only in mythology. It was not clear exactly what kind of abilities or powers she had, but it was clear that if it was a request from a woman with power and authority comparable to that of a god, it would probably be a quest with a level of difficulty that had no answer.
‘It’s already a situation where the probability is low, but it’s difficult to make it bigger than this…..’
-Probability: 115468.
Jae-young, who was obviously trying to end the relationship with the elves and dwarves. But somehow, Tan shattered the sword of the Demon Realm that he cherished, and he even took the revenge of El, who had been left behind for a long time.
As a result, the Great Demon King, who was beaten hard even if he was beaten, and the World Tree, who woke up.
Already this much, the aftermath was huge beyond imagination, so Jae-young had no intention of accepting her quest, which seemed to be at the level of the main scenario or higher.
[Hmm….. It’s difficult? Why do you think that way?]
Jae-young showed disapproval and refused before even hearing the story. At his words, the World Tree tilted his head as if he couldn’t understand. The world tree was unable to fully penetrate everything, but was able to read his fragmentary information. In her eyes, Jae-young was a person who had done and accomplished more than any other human being.
[I can clearly see it in my eyes. Beginner Killer Artifact Destroyer Nobility Killer Vicious Necromancer Cheater who devours the Demon King The Saint of Slime…? This is unusual.]
“How did you do that…?”
The world tree stared blankly at Jaeyoung and started listing his titles one by one. Jaeyoung’s face showed a look of bewilderment at her sudden action, but the world tree looked at Jaeyoung and said with a confident face.
[Even though there are a lot of strange things… I believe that if it’s you, you will be able to fulfill my request. No, if you can’t do it, probably no human being can do it. That’s for sure.]
The World Tree read Jaeyoung’s title. Although it seemed full of strange titles, at the same time, there were countless feats that other humans could not achieve in their lifetime.
noble judge.
neutral seeker.
Revolutionary Equality.
A friend of the dwarves. And the hero of the elves.
Jaeyoung is filled with karma that no one can easily build. That is why the World Tree said with a bright smile.
[Why don’t you listen to it? What am I asking for?]
* * *
Original Arcadia.
When the world was first created, Arcadia was a huge continent.
Pangaea.
[The northern world. It is said that there is always a storm full of bitter cold and cold, and it is covered with snow and ice all over. And there lives a white dragon, who is sleeping deeply…]
[They say there is a very large tree in the center of the world. And there is an endless forest around it, and the fairies and trees that live there are guarding that huge tree that has taken root in the center of the world.
] I have a , so I make various objects and treasures. I like alcohol, so I keep trying to do business with people on the ground, but every time there is a quarrel, so I don’t get along with each other…] A
world created in the innocence of a child.
A continent so vast that one cannot dare imagine its scale. And it was the world tree that existed at the center of the continent that firmly supported the huge continent.
[In the past, Arcadia was made up of one huge continent. But as I fell into an endless sleep, many things changed.]
Great War of the Holy Spirit.
The catastrophic moment when the entire continent of Arcadia was on the brink of extinction. Although she did her best to protect the creatures of Arcadia, she eventually fell into an eternal sleep and was unable to carry out her mission of firmly supporting the entire continent with her roots.
[Eventually, after the Great War ended, the Arcadia continent could no longer maintain its original appearance. For a long time, it gradually started to diverge, and as a result of being separated, it has now been torn and divided into numerous continents…]
A story in a myth that is like the book of Genesis.
Jaeyoung admired inwardly as he listened to the story of the world tree.
‘Who the hell made these settings…?’
Stories and settings in the hidden myths that are not even written in Arcadia’s history. It’s surprising every time I play Arcadia, but the fact that so many things have yet to be revealed made me realize that this world is bigger than I thought and that there are so many unknown contents in this game that I haven’t experienced yet.
“So… what do you want from me?”
The world tree that hasn’t told me why I’m telling this story yet. She responded directly to Jaeyoung’s question.
[I want the scattered continents to come together again.]
“…Yes?”
Jaeyoung’s face hardened when he heard the world tree’s words. Continents scattered across Arcadia. It was never officially revealed exactly how many there were, but we knew for sure what was on those continents.
[The destruction of beginner villages on the second continent of Arcadia…]
[The slime crisis on the second continent of Arcadia…]
[On the second continent of Arcadia…]
(Note) A modifier used whenever Arcadia Korean branch makes an official statement.
2nd continent.
That said, the first, second, and third continents existed within Arcadia, and on each continent, users of different nationalities were playing Arcadia. Therefore, the goal that the World Tree is dreaming of is none other than…
“Is it server integration…?”
[yes? What kind of integration…?]
The World Tree heard Jaeyoung muttering to himself. Jaeyoung shook his head when he asked, tilting his head as if he didn’t understand his words properly.
“No, nothing. Rather… how can I do that?”
The continents of Arcadia, where you can’t even figure out how far away they are. It was impossible for Jae-young to do something on a ridiculous scale of combining them into one. It’s not like they’re collecting DragonX, and it’s because they won’t be able to move those huge continents with human power. However, at Jaeyoung’s question, the world tree smiled and said as if it was simple.
[It’s not that difficult. But the problem is that I haven’t recovered enough to exert that kind of power.]
“Isn’t that… difficult?”
At her words, Jaeyoung looked at the world tree with an absurd look. She took the form of a little girl with green hair. But in reality, Jaeyoung asked, realizing that it was a huge, unknown tree that dominated the entire continent of Arcadia… no, this virtual world.
“all right. So what do you want me to do for you?”
[Hmm… I’m not asking you to do it right away. Just bring me the things I need when you have time to spare and when you feel empowered.]
“Necessary things? What is it?”
Jaeyoung asks what items are needed. At his question, the World Tree smiled and said,
[Dragon Heart.]
“…..”
Jaeyoung looks at the World Tree with an absurd expression at those words. Seeing Jaeyoung’s expression like that, she added a word.
[Ah, please bring it to an ancient dragon level or higher. I think it will be effective only at that level.]
“…Fuck.”
Anyway, this game is like X.
* * *
Jaeyoung wakes up. The first thing he saw upon awakening was the face of a young elf looking down at him with round eyes.
“uh! Melissa Neim! Here, human, wake up!”
Jaeyoung must have fallen asleep somewhere in the grass. However, it seems that the elves found him lying down and moved it, and the place where Jaeyoung is is none other than Melissa’s residence.
[The quest ‘Scattered Continent’ has been created.]
Notification that the quest has been created. Jaeyoung opened the quest window with a complicated expression and let out a deep sigh.
[Quest Scattered Continents]
Arcadia, which used to be one continent, has now split into several continents. Recover the awakened world tree and unite the scattered continents again.
-Dragon Heart (0/1)
Dragon.
The World Tree made the horrific requirement of catching a dragon and offering its heart. Jaeyoung’s head started pounding at her request to bring the heart of the dragon, the strongest in the world of Arcadia.
“Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaoh oh) why can’t there be no sane asaone asaaaaaaaaa)
an angel who looks more vicious than a devil sometimes;
A devil he likes and gives a thumbs up saying that he learns what true evil is by taking notes.
The disparate races whose personalities could not burst and evaporated.
In addition, there is a holy church that does not hesitate to massacre and culturally obliterate the idea of monotheism.
Even if you look back one by one, the worldview and settings in the game do not seem to exist for normal people. Jae-young began to think seriously about whether there was a rule in this game where he had to let go of his mind instead of getting stronger.
“You are awake!”
While Jaeyoung was sitting with a serious expression on her face, Melissa heard Kanna’s cry and hurriedly ran from somewhere. She had an urgent look on her face.
“What’s going on?”
Melissa doesn’t seem to be able to even say how quickly she ran. Looking at her with a curious look, Jaeyoung asked, and she shouted with a face full of joy.
“The World Tree…! The world tree has awakened!”
Melissa is led by the cries of the elves who make a fuss about her. What she saw in the huddled elves was a miraculous sight.
“This is…?”
The wooden pillars of the World Tree, which had apparently been stained black before. The parts where black spots had sprouted here and there, as if caught in a plague, returned to brown as if they had always been there. And the scent of nature that emanates intensely unlike before. I could clearly feel the movement of a huge life force that seemed to pulsate throughout the forest.
“This can’t be…”
The World Tree.
She is the mother of all things and symbolizes nature itself. The fact that her presence, which had been faintly felt until now, was felt more clearly than ever, and Melissa could not control her emotions. And the beings who started flying around the World Tree with curious faces. The faces of the elves who faced them were astonished.
“Look at that! They are spirits!”
“I can’t believe it…. I didn’t even summon it, but the spirits appeared in their natural state… I can’t believe it…..”
After the world tree, which was nature itself, fell asleep, the connection between the Arcadia continent and the spirit world was almost closed. It was a situation. At least, it was at the level of barely borrowing the power of the spirits by using the spirit power that only the elves had. Spirits appearing in nature meant only one thing.
“Channeling with that spirit world has been restored!”
“How can it be! This is a miracle!”
The elves were truly in a festive mood. But Jaeyoung couldn’t be happy to see them like that.
“Hey, Melissa.”
“yes. Why are you like that?”
Jaeyoung with a very dark expression. Jaeyoung asked Melissa, who answered him with worried eyes, full of sincerity.
“Do you have any dragon hearts?”
