Strange Grief Wants to Retire ~ The Weakest Hunter Dreams of a Hero ~

Chapter 315.2: God of Plague

Deep in the forest. It was a mysterious space where leaves *parapara* fluttered down from the sky. The lush trees *kirakira* glistened brightly in the sunlight. The water *konkon* coming out of the ground forms a small spring, flowing slowly through the ground.

There were two figures in a space that looked like a scene coming out from a famous painting.

A tall, slender body and a loose-fitting robe in the color of young leaves. Beautifully streamlined jawline line with well-shaped eyebrows. Her crystal clear eyes praise a delicate beauty that cannot be thought of as a being of this world, and her figure is strangely in harmony with the landscape.

Even those with little knowledge would have been able to immediately understand that the two of them were beings called Spirit People just by looking at their beauty.

Spirit People. An intermediate being that is closer to a person than to a spirit, which is nature itself, and a little closer to a spirit than to a human being, which is a pure life form.

The Spirit Princess (Seirei Hime), a particularly precious existence among the mysterious people who are known for their beauty and power and rarely come out into the open even now that the world is filled with artificial light along with technological advances, raises a whisper at the information she had received from the outside for the first time in a long time.

So they found Shero (Seirei Hime)

One of the wandering people borrowed the help of humans who found it and requited it. There is no doubt as the letter is ingrained with Shero's spellcraft. (Spirit People)

The male Spirit People who gave the report to the Spirit Princess with a melancholy expression said with a serious face.

She is the most well-known queen of the Spirit People in this world. She is the one who cursed and repelled the humans who tried to oppress the Spirit People through the power of their civilization and made the power of Spirit People known to the world. She is feared among humans and is both a hero and a taboo figure among Spirit People.

The cursed object, imbued with its power, which had not been found for a long time, had to be retrieved now that it had gained a certain status vis--vis humans. The curse that Shero, a high-ranking Spirit People, unleashed out of resentment over the destruction of the forest she ruled was beyond the control of humans.

The Wandering PeopleOr Desert Spirit People, as they are called by others, are the transformation of Spirit People who used to live in Shero's forests. Originally, Spirit People grow by absorbing the magical power of the forest, but their nature changed as they traveled from place to place over many generations. The fact that the Wandering People contacted us means that they have fulfilled their responsibilities.

They said they want to come Here directly to return it in person. It was us Yggdra, who gave them that mission, they are in their rights. (Spirit People)

Silence falls amidst the *sarasara* murmuring stream. Before long, the Spirit Princess frowned and said.

This is Quite problematic. Yggdras cannot afford to accept outsiders right now. (Seirei Hime)

It is problematic. I didn't expect them to find Shero at this timing No, should I say that their timing was good? If it had been a little later, we wouldn't even have had the luxury to receive it. (Spirit People)

You are right We cannot refuse. Shero is one of our people. (Seirei Hime)

With a sigh, the Spirit Princess lightly raises her head and looks up at the sky.

What was over there wasA huge tree that pierced the sky.

Its trunk, branches, and leaves are above the clouds and its total length is unimaginable.

One of the systems that sucks Mana Materials from the earth's veins and regulates the power that circulates around the planetThe World Tree.

However, the hometown of Spirit PeopleThe tree that Yggdra had been managing for so long was about to lose its control. The area around the base of the World Tree has already become a magical uncharted place that even the people of Yggdra cannot approach due to the Mana Materials gathered there. The people of Yggdra are trying to quell the situation, but so far no effective measures have been found.

Normally, we would have welcomed them and treated them with respect, butLet's turn them down with an appropriate reason. It would be one case if they were Spirit People like us, but we cannot involve humans in this. (Seirei Hime)

Understood. However, the forest is also influenced by the World Tree. So, I don't know if they will ever get this far Really, what an unlucky human. (Spirit People)

If it was a little earlier, the forest wouldn't have been so dangerous. If it was a little later, they would have sensed the danger before even venturing inside. This is the worst possible timing. But we cannot refuse the visit itself. We cannot let the outside world know about the world tree's anomaly.
