Chapter 48 (1/2)

The enemies were probably very confident due to yesterday’s victory and were slowly advancing, expecting to win easily

”Is their speed reduced because they are escorting the an offspring of the World's Roots? Gnoss, it's perhaps just as you expected, they are transplanting a young bud and want to use the nectar here to provide for it”

'Although it isn't certain, there are very few explanations as to why a dragon would choose tothe World Root's offspring to the Pit

The entire Elves aron in tow All their actions screa precious My nextto be completely crazy, but hopefully one that they wouldn't expect I had no choice to send ambit of mine Even if I were to die I could resurrect, but the same wasn't true for my subordinates From now on I will be the invisible arrohich strikes the enemy's heart

'Tiin my counter attack!'

”Invisible!”

I hid myself perfectly before the enemy commenced their assault

”Teleport! Teleport!…”

I quickly passed the through the Elves and dragons, but no one noticed my presence I had arrived just behind Noradriana and found a colorful carriage, slowly and cere

'Is that it?'

If activated, Noradriana's spell could nullify all ic, but it wasn't possible for her to stop uarded as I had expected Perhaps no one considered that anyone would be crazy enough to attack it under the Elder dragon's watch With a combination of Levitation and Invisibility, I approached the carriage soundlessly Although I had yet to have been noticed, the danger of being spotted increased the longer I stayed here

'Gnoss, can you confir of the World's Root?'

'Yea, that's right'

The buds beforein rainbow colours I carefully reached out to grab them

Thud!

Noradriana had sensed so Likewise, all the elves turned around to stare at the carriage

'Oops'

”Teleport! Teleport!…”

Without giving the green Elder dragon a chance to sing her htailed it out of their as quickly as possible, taking the buds with h I was invisible, I couldn't hide the green light emitted by the seeds

Koo Woo Woo!

The Elves and dragons were left behind in the dust, only Noradriana could barely keep up with on's Breath for fear of har roots

”Ha ha ha, continue to chase me!”

I wasvery fast with a series of quick and short teleport juer be heard, so I looked back to see as going on My pursuers allwhat appeared like a pyra my way

'As expected, Kikiki'

I also noticed that Noradriana was struggling to catch up to htly faster than the speed of sound

'Gnoss, how much time until Noradriana reaches my position?'

'She's about six kilometers out, so in about 30 seconds'

'Great, plenty of time'

'Allow ht incantation…'

'In a second, I'm almost done there'

I had travelled a significant distance, about 20 kons closing in on my position

'Ready! Use this spell!'

This had beenthe buds away fro them so they couldn't be moved That way Noradriana had no choice but to stay here and defend them

I quickly used ic and followed Gnoss' instructions

[You have learned Special Sword Sealing Lv1]

I planted the the young offspring and pulled out a black sword It was the same sword Nabe had used to seal me

'You just say 'Seal', it's the trigger word to begin the spell

”Seal!”

I brutally stabbed the young roots with sword and a sort of darkness spread to the plant, as it hung to the side looking half dead

'Did I inadvertently kill it?'

'No, the Sealing skill is quite cruel in the sense that you can trap a target indefinitely without it ever dying Later, if it's unsealed there is a chance of it dying, but we can't allow that to happen now because then ouldn't be able to control Noradriana's movements Perhaps she would be punished for her failure, but that's still uncertain and not so we can count on'

'Is there a chance that Lorina could come and retrieve it?

'Maybe, but if they were to unseal the root, it is sure to die I made some small modifications to the spell'

'Gnoss, do you perchance have a bad personality?'

'Well…I have also suffered at their hands'

Huu Woong Huooong

The green Elder dragon finally arrived to the scene of the crime

”Ha ha ha, I've sealed the young plant here, so you have no choice but to stay here and protect it now!”

She looked atout of her eyes

”King of the Undead, to you really think you have ith this little stunt of yours?”

I saw the four dragons approaching in the distance

”Why? Are you curious what s are just a bit sick but they won't die as long as they are sealed That uard theht die! Ha ha ha, sorry I need to go back now and greet souest! Teleport! Teleport!…”

Khoooo Quaaaa

I was heading back to the Pit, while Noradriana tried to hit me with a lucky Breath Of course I had expected her to attack as soon a I was no longer near her precious plants, so I was rando my teleports so as to not create a pattern

”You bad guys, don't you know it's polite to knock when you enter another's house?”

The Elves' ground troops had suffered losses due to the numerous traps and pitfalls, whereas their airborne division had run in the alh-Arachnids and had been poisoned

It was tions from the troops I could finally collect all these free experience points and rush towards my next evolution

”Meteor! Fireball! Volcano!…”

Spa my wide array of spells, I proceeded to deci boundless experience

[Deon] [Golden Slime]

'Gnoss, what's a Demi-Lich?'

I asked telepathically while continuing to teleport and rain death upon them

'Is that truly the one that you want? It is a class filled with darkness and you becoh powerful, you will become evil incarnate and will be drawn to the dark side'

'What about it's rank?'

'It usually starts up at around B+, but it could go up to A depending on the levels Still, try to ignore the rank…you would be the representation of death itself

'Is it certain that I'd fall to darkness?'

'Johra, are you truly set on picking it?'
