Episode 168:
Fate World had elements that exquisitely combined real-life myths and legends.
Legends like Imoogi and dragons, as well as the world tree seen in front, were related to Norse mythology.
“What was that name?”
X was vaguely familiar with the legend of the World Tree in Norse mythology.
Among them, what I clearly remember is the fighting that stimulated interest.
widely! X, who was holding his head for a while, hit his knee.
“Ah Nidhogg!”
Kwagwagwaga River!!
It was a loud noise that seemed to say that it was the correct answer.
The black giant dragon Nidhogg was flapping his wings and walking near the roots of the World Tree.
Hresvelg created a strong wind with his wings, impeding Nidhogg’s flight.
In Norse mythology, Nidhogg is a dragon that gnaws at the roots of the World Tree, and Hresvelg is a hawk that lives at the top of the World Tree.
Truly mythical monsters!
Based on the known myths and the reactions of the fairies, it would have been a common fight, but the scale of this common battle was beyond imagination.
Googoo googong! The tree that X was climbing on was shaking violently.
X, who was watching, licked his lips.
“I think I really came to the right place. right?”
“Kyunut!”
My wings are already itching.
X and Yongyong are not at all intimidated even after seeing a battle that shakes the sky and the earth!
The hearts of both the owner and the pet were pounding equally.
A more powerful enemy!
A more thrilling battle!
Because I felt like I had an opportunity to show off my overflowing abilities.
Anyway, watching fights was always fun. X and Yongyong watched the battle while eating snacks together.
“It doesn’t even flinch even after being attacked like that.”
“Kyuuuut!”
“Ah, but it’s still too much to do with just one breath.”
“Kyuu? Wow.”
“Look at this guy, why are you bringing up me who was just sitting still?”
Bickering.
Denise, who had already come to meet them, suppressed her laughter as she watched the two.
The two were so busy watching and arguing that they didn’t seem to have time to notice Denise. Denise opened her mouth.
“X, you arrived safely.”
“Huh, Denise? “How long have you been there?”
“Kyuuut.”
They reunited for the first time in a while and exchanged happy greetings.
Denise was impressed by X and Yongyong’s rapid growth in a short period of time. His delicate hands gently stroked Yongyong.
“Hehe, but the cuteness is still the same.”
“Kyuuu.”
“Anyway, you must have been surprised.”
“Yes, I was already completely out of my mind.”
X walked through the forest with Denise.
Denise smiled and shook her head.
“If those two start fighting properly, there won’t be many people who can stop them. “But perhaps because of the hatred we developed while fighting, we stopped fighting within a week these days.”
A gasping sound came up to the top of my chin.
They can fight for up to a week while using such large-scale magic and engaging in hand-to-hand combat.
It was clear that it had a level that easily surpassed the Imoogi Aractasis.
However, X could not help but be shocked by Denise’s next words.
“Still, those two are of opposite sex. “We don’t get along so we fight often, but neither of us wants indiscriminate destruction.”
“Are you saying that there are some guys with opposite personalities?”
“Sure. Hehe, because the land is so large, there are many people with diverse and eccentric personalities.”
“her.”
There are a lot of guys like that.
How on earth did this continent come into being? First of all, it seemed like it was bigger than the Arba continent, but definitely not small. I could tell just by looking at the world tree growing. X asked out of curiosity.
“But for what reason is the disconnected continent disappearing?”
A disconnected continent that could not be seen even at the end of the world.
X determined that some kind of protective shield surrounded the disconnected continent.
Thump thump. It was a guess based on the sound Aractasis made and the feeling he felt when warping to the Severed Continent.
Denise let out a bitter smile.
“It’s probably not something to be proud of. The past may be something we ignore. “I think it would be best to hear more details from my father.”
There seemed to be some reason why the disconnected continent disappeared from Fate World.
In any case, Denise’s father seemed to know well, so there was no need to inquire further.
X changed the heavy atmosphere.
“Anyway, I think this is my first time seeing such a dense forest. Above all, I never thought I would be able to see so many spirits with my own eyes.”
“Hehe, from the name, it’s a forest of spirits. Moreover, there would be an uproar because I saw in person a human who had only been told of legend.”
“Humans come down like legends…”
X muttered softly, following Denise’s words.
I could understand it right away.
Because dragons, which are commonly seen on the disconnected continent, are treated as revived legends on the Arba continent! In short, there was no need to envy Yongyong’s popularity in the disconnected continent.
A sinister smile appeared on X’s face.
‘I can build up favorability easily with this!’
Build up your affinity with the spirits so you can progress the quest and gently coax them to bring you to Xernis! X was making a plan in the dark.
Denise added fuel to X’s already burning greed.
“As you can see, the Severed Continent is very large, so you won’t be able to escape the Spirit Forest using normal methods, but still, please be careful if the environment suddenly changes.”
Whisper quietly. Denise lowered her voice and continued.
“There is a city of giants right next to the Spirit Forest.”
“A giant?”
Even spirits aren’t enough, so even giants?
At that moment, the walls of Xernis appeared in X’s mind. Even the appearance of giant guards standing guard over the castle walls like an iron wall. After tasting his food, X asked subtly.
“What are the personalities of giants like? “What kind of food do you like?”
“well. “I know it’s your taste, Mr.
“Hmm, is that so?”
Denise only mentioned the ‘giant’ character, but she seemed to be already tired of it.
It seemed like the giants would be difficult to deal with since the good-natured Denis was so upset. But who is X?
A natural way of managing 100 million viewers!
Of course, it was thanks to riding on the popularity of Yongyong and Malangi, but X was confident that he could take on the giants.
But everything has an order.
‘Once we completely clear the Forest of Spirits, let’s look around other places.’
X knew nothing about the Severed Continent.
Like spirits, if there are people who show interest in the human X, there will also be people who show hostility.
You could encounter an enemy like Nidhog or Hresvelg where you cannot guarantee immediate victory.
‘Because there is Denis in the Spirit Forest.’
With Denis’ help, I will figure out the disconnected continent!
It always starts with one step.
After thinking, X quickly followed Denise. Denise was certainly no ordinary being. Spirits gathered around Denis.
Chatter chatter.
He glanced at X and whispered.
“Denise, you are human!”
“You are my guest, so please be kind to me.”
“customer? “I thought it was strange, but Denise brought me here!”
The spirits’ interest in X increased even more when they heard that he was Denise’s guest.
Should we have a conversation that we couldn’t finish earlier?
As X was about to open his mouth to the spirits, Denis spoke softly.
“The spirits are very mischievous. Because it is pure, there are also parts that are more dangerous. So be careful not to be unilaterally influenced by them.”
Oh, you’re being playful?
At Denise’s warning, X looked closely into the spirits’ eyes. The eyes were definitely strange. It was as if he was looking at himself like a fun toy.
Sighing, X raised the corner of his mouth.
‘I can already smell the quest!’
*
Tiroling!
A notification sounds every time you take a step.
[You have discovered the ‘Spirit Trail’ for the first time in Fate World!]
[Experience gain near the Spirit Trail increases by 20% for 72 hours!]
[Item acquisition rate near the Spirit Trail increases by 20% for 72 hours ! Do it!]
Tiroring!
[You have discovered the ‘Spirit Crossroads’ for the first time in Fate World!]
[Experience gain near the Spirit Crossroads increases by 20% for 72 hours!]
[The item acquisition rate near the Spirit Crossroads increases by 20% for 72 hours! I do it!]
‘Every minute and every second is a waste. really.’
Restless. Even as I was peacefully walking through the forest, time was passing by.
X wanted to suck up as much honey as possible before the first discovery buff effect disappeared.
Did he notice X’s feelings like that? Denise smiled and opened her mouth.
“If you just remember to turn right at the crossroads, you won’t have any reason to get lost. Since my father is away anyway, I think you can freely look around the forest now.”
“Shall we?”
“Hehe, it’s nothing that can’t be done, but what should Yongyong do?”
snoring.
Yongyong fell into a sweet sleep as he was carried on Denise’s back.
I didn’t notice it until now because it had been unsummoned for a long time, but it was definitely sleeping for a long time like a growing hatchling.
Nodding, X lowered his head.
“I would appreciate it if you could take care of that sleepyhead for a while.”
“There is nothing that can’t be done.”
“See you later then!”
Slut!
X immediately began collecting everything in sight. Even though it was the same forest, it was full of plants that could not be found on the Arba continent.
-Dandelion soaked in sunlight (rare)
A dandelion that glows from its petals.
It not only looks good but also tastes good.
Special Effect: When consumed, it greatly helps regenerate stamina.
‘I can’t believe there are such precious things scattered everywhere.’
Is it because of the dreamy environment where the sun and moon rise at the same time? The basic level was rare and unique.
Among them, what caught X’s attention was a mushroom that looked unusual in appearance.
“Anyone can tell it’s a poisonous mushroom?”
Exactly half of it was white and the other half was black, as if it had been painted with paint.
However, to X, who had a heavenly sense of taste, poisonous mushrooms were nothing more than a delicacy.
X dug into the ground and checked the mushroom information.
– Light and dark mushroom (unique)
A mushroom from a disconnected continent where day and night coexist.
It possesses both light and dark properties.
Saturation: +10%
Special Effect: When consumed, slightly increases light attribute affinity and dark attribute affinity. Resistance also increases by half of the increased affinity.
“crazy.”
It’s a mushroom that doesn’t even have the dark attribute, but also affects the light attribute!
Of all the attributes, the ones that were rumored to be difficult to increase affinity and resistance to were Light and Dark. Moreover, the two had conflicting personalities.
‘Even in my case, I’m not immune to light properties.’
X was far from a light attribute thanks to the dark iron set.
There were almost no ingredients with light properties, so even heavenly taste and cooking could not make up for it.
“Okay, tonight’s dinner is mushroom rice bowl.”
I discovered a mushroom with incredible effects in an unexpected place! Of course, befitting its effectiveness, mushrooms were precious to the body. It seems that it only grows in places that receive adequate sunlight and moonlight.
“But there is a lot of time and the spirit forest is wide.”
Besides, the hard work has only just begun. X hummed and swept up the ingredients around him.
As the inventory, which had been expanded to its maximum, was getting thicker, a voice was heard.
A voice with a lot of playfulness suppressed.
“How long are you going to stare at the grass, human? Why don’t you have fun with us instead? “Since you are Denise’s guest, we will take special care and treat you well.”
Spirits that are as black as they are pure and can be seen clearly.
However, X was not a great person to kick the quest that came.
Sighing, X smiled pretentiously at the spirits.
“Really? Then, shall I try my best to have fun?”
Tiroling!
Then a quest came to mind.
Munchkin that I eat all by myself
