Woke up as a Worthless Swordsmanship Genius

Episode 178

: I headed straight to the World Tree with the elves attached to me.

They knew there was a problem somewhere in the World Tree, but they did not know where the World Tree was, so guidance from the elves was essential.

If I wandered around alone, it was easy for me to get lost and become lost in the forest, where the terrain changes in real time.

I had to stick close to them to avoid becoming a lost child.

“….”

As many as three elves joined me.

Four people, including me, were walking down the road.

The more people there are, the more talk there is.

Moreover, when people who know each other gather together, even if only one stranger is gathered together, they whisper among themselves because the other person is there.

‘It’s too quiet.’

The elves had nothing like that.

He kept his mouth shut and didn’t say a word, as if his mouth had been sewn with thread.

I can understand why they don’t talk to me, but I was surprised that they didn’t talk to each other either.

Or maybe they don’t even want me to hear their voices.

Well, it had nothing to do with me.

I didn’t have to talk to them, but it was nice to be quiet.

It’s even more annoying to say things like, “What’s wrong with humans? I can’t trust humans.”

They took the lead and walked towards the World Tree.

The trees and vines on their path moved out of the way.

In order not to disturb their path, the road was opened as soon as their feet could reach it.

It was a lush space where I couldn’t see an inch in front of me, so I was amazed at how I knew how to get there.

Slurp slurp –

Not even monsters or common bugs appeared on the path they were taking.

It was amazing and very comfortable.

It was like a living air freshener.

Originally, entering the forest was quite painful due to insects such as mosquitoes.

It was scary to even think about how swarming with bugs it was, especially on a humid day like now.

But it was very convenient not to have to go through that.

“It’s here.”

One of them, who had been silent the whole time, opened his mouth.

So, the name of the elf who spoke to me was Taran.

“My mother is in front of me.”

Taran, who spoke to me, frowned as he spoke.

Did he feel so bad talking to me?

He was showing his displeasure to the point that even I, listening to it, felt bad.

“I don’t know what you’re going to do, but you’d better not do anything nonsense. “If you don’t want your kingdom to be destroyed.”

He gave me a harsh warning and pushed me on the back.

He motions for me to go through the wide open trees.

I was a little shocked by his warning, but I stared at him and took a deep breath to calm my heaving heart.

I reminded myself that I had come to make peace with them, not to fight.

When I thought that it was a meaningless, immature sound of a child, the burning heat cooled down.

“You can rest assured that we have no intention of turning you into enemies.”

I glanced at him and went inside.

The smell of the air changed.

I didn’t know it until I got out of the trees, but it was surprising that I had never seen such a large world tree until now.

Even if it was because of the trees blocking the view only in the elf’s territory, I didn’t understand why I couldn’t see that world tree outside the realm.

The size of the World Tree in front of me was enormous.

It was a tree so huge that even if I raised my head as high as I could, I couldn’t see the end.

It’s so big, why didn’t I see it?

Putting my doubtful thoughts aside, I turned my head and looked at the World Tree.

Although the height was high, the girth was also significant.

If it had been hollowed out, it would have been large enough to accommodate hundreds of people.

‘But… I can clearly feel that it is lifeless.’

When I first saw the World Tree, two thoughts came to mind.

One was that it was very big, and the second was that it was lifeless.

Perhaps because it was so large, the condition of the tree was more visible.

The bark of the World Tree was dry.

Half of the World Tree, which had soared high into the sky like a tree in winter, was still dropping its cracked and dried bark.

That wasn’t all.

The leaves hanging from the outstretched branches were so dry that they looked like they were about to break, and some of them had no leaves at all.

Dying.

The world tree was gradually dying to the extent that it was appropriate to say that.

“Mother….”

“You’re thinner than before.”

I shed tears as I looked at the world tree and saw the elves who followed me.

Then he grabbed my shoulder and glared at me, telling me to use any method to solve it.

“Human, we believed only your words and allowed you into our sanctuary. “You too will have to take responsibility for your words.”

“I understand, so would you please let go of this hand? “My shoulder hurts, so no matter what I try, I can’t do it.”

At my words, Jar, who had been holding my shoulder, tightened his grip on my shoulder.

As I stared at him for a moment, he sighed and let go of his hand.

His eyes turn to the World Tree.

He seemed very anxious as his eyes trembled mercilessly as he looked at the World Tree.

“I’d like to ask you a favor, human. “Please, my mother…”

He was speechless at the thought of having to leave his mother in the hands of a greedy human, not even of the same clan but of a different race.

“All right.”

I just nodded because I knew how miserable he felt having to entrust his precious thing to someone he had never met before.

You will shudder at the thought of your incompetence.

‘I tried to do that even if you didn’t ask me to.’

As long as they don’t attack us, I plan to help them as much as I can.

I couldn’t be sure how long this world would continue as it was in the original.

Right now, a lot of things are going wrong because of my actions.

Moreover, by now, Ahar had caused a monster wave, and the Kingdom of Seiron was in the midst of a war.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ahar gains more talent and moves down to the South to take over the entire South.

Obtain Kairos’ talent and plunder the talents of the elves.

If the elves had been strong and had not lost the power of the World Tree, they would not have lost to Ahar.

No matter how strong the sword master was, he could not win against dozens of spirits.

If they had maintained their power, the entire continent would not have been destroyed.

‘It hasn’t happened yet, so let’s not overreact. ‘I could have stopped it now.’

Fiction and reality are different.

Maybe then, but not now.

Because I will stop it.

I know how to do it, so what can I not do?

Sabak Sabag –

I walked towards the World Tree.

The sound of grass being stepped on echoed everywhere.

After walking for a while, I realized that the distance between me and the World Tree had not narrowed.

‘what?’

It certainly seemed like I had been walking for quite a long time, but in reality, I didn’t get close to the World Tree, as if I was just walking in place.

That wasn’t the only strange thing.

The surroundings were so quiet. Even though it was quiet, it was too quiet.

I couldn’t hear any sound, as if I was alone in the cell, as if there was nothing around.

Since the elves were originally silent, it can be said that this is so.

But it was strange that I couldn’t hear the wind or the grass I stepped on.

…!

I trampled the grass hard on purpose.

There was no sound either.

I turned my head, which had always been looking straight ahead, and looked around.

“…crazy.”

Before I knew it, my surroundings were filled with white.

The elves that came with me disappeared.

The wind tickling my head stopped.

The beautifully blooming flowers disappeared.

But that didn’t mean there was nothing.

First of all, the ground I am stepping on.

The flowers were gone, but the vibrant grass was still under my feet.

The grass continued in a straight line, and a small tree had grown where the grass touched.

It was my first time seeing a tree.

It was my first time seeing this tree, but it felt familiar.

“Three…count?”

I laughed even after I said that.

That can’t be possible. I’ve already seen how big the World Tree is.

There is no way such a small tree could be the world tree.

As I was thinking about that and looking around, my vision suddenly became blurry.

Because you’re dizzy? Because of a headache?

no. It wasn’t because it hurt.

Aurors were gathering in my eyes against my will.

However, the amount was quite large.

The auror moved to the point where I was worried that my eye would explode.

I felt dizzy, perhaps because I used too many auras at once.

Just like refilling an empty water tank with water, Auras from outside came in and filled the space where Auras left.

“Ah…”

After the vertigo disappeared, I was having a strange experience.

The white space surrounding me and the tree was filled with rainbow-colored mana.

The manas were connected to one place, and as I moved my gaze along the manas, I saw a small tree.

“…!”

I couldn’t speak.

The tree, which had clearly been just a small tree before the Aurors filled its eyes, had now grown to a gigantic size.

The size of the tree remained the same.

However, the mana connected to the tree was coming together and forming a huge tree, and it looked like that.

“World Tree….”

It resembles the World Tree I saw before coming here.

No, the world tree here seemed more real than the world tree outside the white space.

A tree made of mana.

The mana and vitality felt from that tree gave me an overwhelming feeling that could not be explained in words.

Just being up close and seeing it was almost ecstatic.

It was when I was staring blankly at that tree.

-…Choose… Child…

A voice came from somewhere.

The voice was a woman’s, yet resembled a man’s.

-It’s time… help…

The World Tree was talking to me.

But the words didn’t sound right.

Like a stretched tape, the words were interrupted and stretched out.

-…Blessings…!

With the last words, the white space began to shatter like glass.

While I was panicking about what suddenly happened, I was able to see one thing.

Where there are trees.

In front of the World Tree, a woman was smiling and shedding tears as she looked at me.

As I was looking at her, someone grabbed my shoulder.

“What are you doing standing still? “Go inside.”

Taran was glaring at me.

Roxy and Jar who came with me were looking at me like I was strange.

How did this happen?

I was clearly facing the World Tree, but when I came out of the white space, I was at the entrance to the World Tree.

“Your mother is waiting inside.”

Taran glares at me, asking why I’m not going in.

“….”

I nodded absent-mindedly at the difficult-to-explain phenomenon and continued walking.

As I entered through the path made with trees on both sides, I saw the World Tree that I had seen earlier.

However, the state of the world tree was very strange.
