Eat The World Tree

Chapter 241: Baobab Tree (Complete)

Baobab’s fist approached, and I dodged, extending my fingers.

-Pit!

A swift strike pierced through the blood vessels before I pulled my hand back immediately.

Shoulder and nape. When that failed, I aimed for her right chest.

-Mulkeong!

I avoided attacks without landing any effective blows. As I repeated this, Baobab spoke to me.

“You.”

Her face was veined with anger.

“What are you doing right now?”

“What do you mean?”

“Exactly. What am I doing right now?”

If I seriously fought, there would be ways, but it was better to leave some tricks up my sleeve. Sometimes, holding back was much harder.

Luckily, I got used to using sex techniques.

When I channeled magic into my two fingers again, I noticed the aura was even more pink than before.

‘I feel like I’m getting closer to completion. Is my potential progressing even here?’

I remembered something from the past.

While fighting against Cheonma, I had sneakily asked out of curiosity.

-How much potential did the person who first created these martial arts have?

The old man had laughed at my question.

-Potential has nothing to do with it. If you want to create something, you can do it right now. You’re overthinking it.

-Really?

-Yes, if even a clumsy fool like you wants to create, what can’t you make? With your potential, you might create something quite decent.

Jiiiiing!

I looked at the form of magic gathered in my two fingers. I learned from Hwangdo, used it on Byeol, and up to today. I could tell I was using it more conveniently and efficiently.

-Bang!

I flew away as if struck by Baobab’s attack.

I adjusted my body, rotating mid-air to land properly, though my wrist felt quite sore.

Again, twice. I pierced above the collarbone and the ear.

‘…I think I’m starting to see it.’

After several attempts of infusing magic, I began to see her magical blood vessels.

It’s surprising how different it was for each person.

Baobab had an unusually large and wide network of magic blood vessels.

As I focused on that area, I seemed to see the spots I needed to pierce.

Though not clearly visible, it appeared and disappeared like an illusion—a blue thread.

It looked like a path connected by mist.

‘Huh?’

I rubbed my eyes and looked again.

The opponent’s lower abdomen. About two fingers below the navel, a blue thread was pulled tight.

“What are you doing with that dazed face!”

-Tadadak!

Baobab charged at me with a loud shout.

I gathered magic into my two fingers and held my breath.

A series of continuous strikes hit my body.

Expecting to take hits, I extended my hand.

-Thunk!

My head spun.

The first joint of my finger poked her lower abdomen.

At the same time, I felt my body flying away.

This wouldn’t do. Somehow, I instinctively knew.

I stabilized my body as I flew back. I landed on the ground and jumped toward Baobab.

This time, it was not with fingers but a fist. As I channeled magic throughout my body except for my fist, my vision narrowed from the speed.

The blood vessels carrying magic turned bright red.

As blood accelerated through my veins, my head spun.

I swiftly closed in on Baobab with a powerful strike.

It wasn’t Baekdo or any other technique.

It was just a fist, but the magic imbued was something I crafted differently.

It could be called magic or martial arts.

‘I’m not sure if this should be called a combat skill….’

For the Tree Spirit King who gained strength by ravishing the Tree Spirits, this might be the best ability.

Knowing this, my body might be elevating this ability’s potential.

【Potential is manifesting. The skill [Sex Technique (B)] is engraved in your skill slot. 】

‘Damn.’

This realization after so long.

With a distorted smile, my fist touched Baobab’s lower abdomen.

“Where…”

It sunk in heavily.

“…Ugh, oof!?”

At that moment, Baobab’s eyes widened as her body froze.

In a state of combat-induced excitement, it was hard to increase arousal with sex techniques.

Moreover, I wasn’t skilled enough to master this yet. It was only my third time using it.

However, against Baobab’s power, sex techniques were a perfect match.

“What are you doing—”

Instantly, Baobab’s body weakened and shrank. I kicked her down.

-Bang!

Her head whipped back as she fell to the ground.

▶Sex Technique (B)

[Category: Skill]

“As desired, as wanted.”

-Increases the opponent’s sexual pleasure and makes it manifest. Instantly brings the opponent to climax if they are aroused. Can control ovulation during intercourse.

-[Unique] :: You are the sole user of this ability.

‘So it’s a known ability.’

It was essentially my ability with a basic description added.

Of course, it was the first time sex techniques took a proper form today.

I looked at Baobab’s unconscious body.

“…Mm. Ugh.”

Baobab groaned with her eyes closed.

She lay face down, exposing her stomach and chest.

Sweat trickled down her large, bronze-toned chest.

Her thighs twitched slightly, as if someone were tenderly caressing that area, arousing her.

Between her legs, faint liquid had gathered as she lay defenseless.

‘When did the status window come back?’

It had been about 20 minutes since I dismissed the status window. It was about time for it to return.

It was a close timing.

Even if it returned, I could dismiss it again, but it wasn’t bad now.

I loosened up and straightened my body, looking at the fallen Baobab.

She had suddenly attacked, demanding to know Bob’s whereabouts.

Thanks to Hwangdo always giving me the locations, I knew where Bob was.

But if Bob had run away without informing his sister, he must have had a reason.

As someone from Spring Peach Blossom led by Baekdo, there was no need to babble needlessly.

My thoughts could change depending on the details, but that was my current stance.

But this…

It was only 0.2 stats.

-Gulp.

“Sigh.”

Pondering such things, I realized I was losing it too.

Baobab’s current outfit was no different from underwear.

Her slightly squashed underbreasts were drenched in sweat and water.

Her pants were the same. If captured on camera, such a pose and body would captivate many hearts.

A National Tree, her beauty was breathtaking. As a man, it would be a lie to say I wasn’t tempted.

-Thump, thump.

The Tree Spirit King’s body now exuded lust indiscriminately. My heart pounded, and my mind began to blur.

It was similar to the impulses I felt when trapped in the dungeon with Maronnie, but this time, it was manageable.

I could endure it.

This lust was nothing. I had no desire to act on it.

‘…However.’

The abilities and talent that Baobab possessed.

It would be a lie to say I was not tempted.

An increase of 0.2 in stats. That alone would make a significant difference, raising all abilities by 0.2.

Essentially, it was like gaining a full point in stats.

I knew the precise value.

That’s why, even in a thoughtless relationship, it crossed my mind.

There wouldn’t be a problem now, but if I were to face a greater enemy in the future.

If I lost because of this slight difference in stats and ended up dying… or if I lost someone precious because of it, what would happen?

I looked at Baobab’s body.

I felt regret.

If I squeezed between her thighs, tightly hugged her legs, and did it just once with my eyes shut.

It could become a great power that might save my life in the future if something big happens.

It wasn’t a small number.

Her talent was equally outstanding.

“……”

I stared silently at Baobab’s body for a long time.

I opened my hand, reached towards it, then stopped.

I placed my hand back on her knee.

I reached again.

I retracted it again.

Should I do it?

If I didn’t….

Would I regret this later? There’s nothing more hideous than that.

Then, on the other hand, if I committed the act here and saved someone, would I think it was fortunate that I did it?

That was also hideous.

If it’s ugly either way, then rather…

‘Ssuu.’

It would have been better if I were a lust-crazed fool like back then.

If it were Taeyang, he might have done it immediately without hesitation.

Thinking about it, he seemed to be a perfect fit for the Tree Spirit King.

There were still many lingering memories before my eyes.

Baekyang did many things for me but also gave me many traumas.

‘Except for this, there’s no other way for me to grow right now.’

If the opponent were Flower or World Tree, I would have done it without any guilt. No, even if there was guilt, I wouldn’t have agonized over it like this.

My mouth felt dry.

-Slap!

I slapped my cheek to clear my thoughts.

The future was uncertain. And I had too many enemies, so I might be clinging to things like this.

‘Cheondo.’

If it were her, what advice would she give?

My master firmly believed that I was a good person.

In truth, I was far from it.

If Cheondo were to advise me, she would surely tell me not to abandon my morals in such a place.

One deviation was a mistake, but continuing it became a habit.

I knew that too.

I stopped thinking.

“Damn it, let’s quit.”

The more I agonized, the more my mind tried to justify it.

Before I became a host to lust, let’s escape.

Yes, damn it. Rather than committing a crime, it was better to seduce a few women openly.

Ignoring the seductive scent that brushed my nose, I got up from my seat.

-Flicker.

“Haa… Ugh.”

At that moment, Baobab got up from her spot.

She stared blankly at me.

“I’m leaving. Don’t follow me.”

As I left a word and tried to leave, Baobab jumped up.

She looked at me. Her eyes were strangely unfocused.

“……”

She said nothing.

Then suddenly, she muttered while looking at me.

“…What did you do to me?”

“What?”

Grab.

My vision tilted backward.

For a moment, I thought she was ready to fight again without feeling tired.

Two rough hands grabbed my shoulders, and she bent her head as if looking down at me from above.

Two large breasts pressed and squashed against my chest.

“…This is driving me crazy.”

Baobab’s single muttered word. Her eyes, sharp like a lioness, focused on me.

That was all.

A faint but alluring fragrance.

When I came out of the dungeon, Lee Hyang, Taeyang, and Aori were standing outside the gate.

As I stepped out, Taeyang approached me and asked,

“You’re here.”

“Yeah.”

I handed two backpacks to Lee Hyang and Aori. They accepted my luggage without a word. We were silent for a long time.

Aori stared at me with sparkling eyes. She seemed to know everything that had happened.

Taeyang, unable to hold back, asked,

“So… hyung. Why do you look like a guy who was overpowered by a woman because he couldn’t control his lust?”

“Well, that’s how it turned out. It’s my fault though.”

Sex Technique.

For someone, it might be an excellent match.

But on the contrary, it could bring disastrous results.

That’s how I decided to define my ability.

“How did it feel?”

I patted Taeyang’s shoulder silently.

“Don’t even approach Baobab trees. Or rather, African Tree People.”

They were beyond the World Tree of Healing.
