Episode 31. Finding hints (1)
“Oh, world tree. That look…… ?”
Naiad’s eyes widen when he sees Yggdrasil, who has transformed from Prause’s mother into her original form. It’s pretty rare for Naiad to be surprised.
“Isn’t it your first time seeing the spirit kings? This is my true self.”
Looking at the young girl, the two spirit kings were dumbfounded and unable to say anything. After scanning Yggdrasil’s entire body, the two spirit kings hurriedly knelt down.
Perhaps he read the energy coming out of his body, and his obedience to the World Tree was the same as usual.
No matter how much you look younger than yourself and look shorter, the essence doesn’t change.
However, that was a rule only applicable to spirits. There were three guys who weren’t here.
“Is this the World Tree? It’s so cute!”
Tina rolls up the sleeve of the World Tree, her eyes shining, and grabs her tiny hand.
“Wow! Small! Look! Iris, Maria!”
“You seem to be smaller than me…… ?”
Maria next to her puts her hand on her own head and compares the difference in her height.
“You guys get scolded by Master?”
Iris scolds her, but she doesn’t listen.
“Iris, come here. Is it very soft?”
Iris reluctantly put her hand on Yggdrasil’s cheek at Tina’s touch.
“Oh… Oh oh… ….”
Iris, who had a serious expression on her face, relaxed. Is it that kind of touch?
“It’s cute… ….”
“Oh, hey! No matter how brave you are! The World Tree’s jade body—”
“It’s okay.”
I cut him off just before Naiad’s voice grew louder.
“What?!”
“We have to provide this level of service. Is not it?”
Yggdrasil stared at me and snorted.
“…… Prause is also very bad. Cook Cook. Is it so. If you want to do Prause too, I’m happy.”
She holds out her hand towards me. At that moment, the three heroes reacted almost simultaneously and grabbed her thin arm.
“Wait a minute.”
“Master has no interest in women other than us.”
“Teacher, let me touch my cheek. So, don’t touch the body of the world tree.”
“…… I didn’t even have the slightest intention of touching it.”
I was just saying this in the sense of not getting angry even if you touched Yggdrasil’s body at will.
Originally, from the moment they touched her body, the spirit kings would have been very angry with all kinds of magic. They endured because they were warriors.
It was only that she had removed her conflicts beforehand, but she had no black desire to touch her.
“Do you not allow me to approach the master? Master is mine.”
“Since when did Master become obvious?”
At Iris’s point, Tina raised her nose and boldly crossed her arms.
“Yeah! Because I am the prettiest! I get petted by my master almost every day?”
“I get petted too!”
“How many times have you been stroked?”
“You mean the number of times your hand went through your hair? Or are you referring to the number of times you stroked your hair in a row?”
“…… Whichever!”
“The number of round trips through my hair was 32 just yesterday!”
“No. 32?! Quite a lot…… ? I was number 28. Teacher! Please stroke me 4 more times right now! This is discrimination!”
“Heh, hehehehe. I was number 33 I won!”
Iris, who had been still, smiled brightly and vigorously waggled her tail. His shy yet superior attitude somehow makes him look pissed off.
“What?! Do not lie!”
“It’s not a lie!”
No matter how much you have nothing to fight, are you fighting with something like this?
What if you stroke someone’s hair more and how less?
In the first place, how do you all remember the number of times I stroked your hair?
“Heroes really like Prause.”
Yggdrasil slipped into the scuffle of the three warriors and stood next to me.
“I never told you to like me very much.”
“It’s okay to pretend you don’t like it!”
“… ….”
Where did the majesty of the World Tree go?
“Cee… ! Teacher! How many times have you stroked Iris’s head?!”
The warriors who had been trying to keep in check Yggdrasil until a while ago were starting a league of their own.
“I don’t know either.”
“Anyway! You don’t know because you share your hand every time! From now on, please only stroke one person a day. That’s how you remember! All right?”
Oh, is it my fault?
I smiled wryly at Tina’s point and nodded her head.
“Good. Then Tina should stop stroking her hair in front of her.”
“Eh! Where is that?!”
“Okay, I got one back!”
When Maria misbehaved and teased Tina, she got impatient and yelled at me.
“Profit!! Teacher! I really can’t stand it when it comes out like that?!”
“What will you do if you can’t stand it?”
“I’m going to snuggle up under the blanket where my teacher is sleeping and hug me tight.”
That’s what it meant to be impatient.
Tina seemed to mean that she wanted to sleep with her all this time, but she couldn’t so she held back. This is kinda cute

“Okay, okay. Don’t treat me evenly So stop fighting.”
Seriously, if Tina was forced to do it, she couldn’t refuse, so she had no choice but to be moderately appeased.
“Are you petting my hair too, Prause?”
“What are you?”
“Who are you? He is Prause’s only contractor.”
Yggdrasil, who jumps in, raises his tiptoe and whispers. I put my head back to avoid the warmth from her mouth.
“It’s not polite to stroke someone older than you on the head.”
“Since when have you been polite?”
“…… The reason I was rude was all because of my facial expression management skills.”
I became like this because of my facial expression management skills after coming to this world, but in reality, I was originally a polite person. Where did you go and how much did you try to be careful with your words?
“I’m asking now, but why did you set the tone like this?”
“Oh, that? Isn’t Lee Hangyul the fat guy over there? Even in this world, it’s difficult to act like a chinta.”
In a nutshell, he had no choice but to have a trashy image until now because of this guy.
But no matter how you say it, are you saying it outright? It hurts so much
“If I had kept that personality as it is, the people watching from the side would have died of frustration.”
I couldn’t deny it because it wasn’t completely wrong.
Obviously, if it wasn’t for the facial expression management skill, it would have created a frustrating situation in many ways. I would have only looked here and there.
“Still, it was fortunate that he had his own determination.”
“I see.”
“So will you stroke my hair? I’m old, but I look younger than the warrior, right? I don’t think there will be any objection.”
“…… I don’t know why everyone is serious about petting.”
I put my hand on Yggdrasil’s head and ran it through the grain of his hair.
“Heroes aren’t sincere about stroking their hair, they’re compromising. Those kids want to express more affection with Prause even now, but they just hold back. So don’t be too irritable. Could it really be attacked?”
I hurriedly removed my hand from Yggdrasil’s head before she could finish her sentence. However, it was after it was discovered that he had already been patted on the head by the warriors.
“Oh, it felt good!”
With Yggdrasil’s pitiful sigh, Tina pointed at me.
“Ah! After all, the master has crossed the line!”
“Since this has happened, we have no choice but to ask for it!”
“…… You calm down If you ask for a lot of petting, he will do it.”
You guys, please stop…….

“Why is Prause here? Would you like to do something delicious for me?”
“Why are you standing side by side with the World Tree? Offended! I want to stand there too! I’m jealous, so please leave immediately.”
Your concept is really the same. To the annoying side.
The other two Spirit Kings, Phoenix and Orient, who were not present, also came to visit us. The fact that humans had set foot in the spirit realm seemed to have come in a hurry.
“Oh, I want to try Prause’s cooking too. Can you do it for me?”
In the meantime, Yggdrasil spoke immaturely.
It felt like the story got more complicated as the number of people increased. I haven’t finished my work yet, but my mind is dizzy from the stress.
“I hate it.”
“Then, when expression management is released later, go to the human world and try it.”
“Isn’t it okay if the spirit doesn’t eat?”
“You don’t have to do it anyway, but the food humans eat gives the spirits a fresh experience.”
“Stop!”
Orient came between me and Yggdrasil.
“Why are you talking so friendly? The World Tree is not even my friend!”
“…… We are friends.”
Yggdrasil smiled and affirmed. Orient is frustrated.
“No.”
I firmly denied it. Orient snorted as if she knew it. He’s really busy just reacting.
“Does it make you feel better when you talk like that?”
I pressed down on Yggdrasil’s cheek as he spoke while inflating his cheeks. The air puffs up and comes out.
“Let’s stop chatting here. There is something I want to ask you.”
“Do you still have questions? I’ll tell you in advance, but won’t you tell me the three sizes?”
“I am not interested in three sizes of trees.”
“That’s too much. Is this what you saw?”
“But if that huge tree breaks, won’t this figure disappear too?”
“That’s right.”
“Then the tree must be the body.”
“Is that so…… ?”
Defeated by her logic, she subconsciously understands.
“Ah, anyway! That’s not what’s important. So what are you curious about?”
Look at the genie turning around in an argument.
“…… Isn’t there a way for the warriors to break through the limit a little easier?”
“There is a way.”
Oh. That’s rare.
If it was possible to easily break through the limit, I thought I would be able to respond to the man-man war with less than two years left.
“How is that?”
“…… Unfortunately I can’t say that. It’s because it hurts the cause and effect of saying it.”
“I see.”
Well, if you knew that way, there would be no reason to worry.
“But I think I can give you a hint.”
“Hint?”
“For a while, I’m trying to make the warriors live in the spirit realm.”
“In the spirit realm?”
“The spirit realm is where my mana comes out directly. It is of much better quality than the mana of the human world.”
As she said, the spirit realm was a place where you could directly feel the power of the World Tree. In the game, the warriors’ mana quickly recovered just by being here.
“In other words, it means that it is easier to feel mana much more sensitively. I don’t think it’s the perfect place for warriors who need to see the essence, learn the gap, and overlap magic.”
