Chapter 37 (2/2)

There was also a sparkling streah the city There were even s casually in it The city seems to be built in completely harmony with nature

As there was district na Tree,” this here all the royalty lived, with their castle like dwellings ether

Nearby, there were nus and prayers to the “Tree of Origin, Aragon” The last king of Gaburanth, selected that tree as a symbol for the Gaburanth and built the city around it To the Gaburanth, the “Tree of Origin, Aragon” is a sacred entity to them

Once a year, the “Origin festival” takes place at the center of the town Lots of people come from all around the world, especially children At that ti from the tree

It is believed that the blessing fro, honourable, and respectable person Such rituals has become a tradition Generally, it is for the Gaburanth children, but in the past there has been humas who has climbed the tree as well

The Tree of Origin, is greatly revered by the Gabranth Any other race who even touches the tree will be incur the ceaseless wrath of Gabranth

“Well, that is what they say, either way never touch the tree in your human form” (Arnold)

With how intense Arnold gave the warning, Hiiro who is currently disguised as a Gabranth using the word ability [Copy],to be careful of That is to never touch the tree in his human form

“I see that is how it is It is certainly a very large tree, but that is not the only reason right?” (Hirro)

While walking, hiro looked up at the tree; it was clearly over 200 meter tall, a ridiculous size for a tree But Hiiro is unsure if you should appreciate a tree just because of its size

“That is is not all I’ve heard that if you are sick with a disease or injury, if you just touch the tree it will heal it If you have baby that doesn’t stop crying, if you bring the baby into the vicinity of the tree it will stop crying There are other mysterious rumor about what the tree has done or is capable of”

“Huh, is that it?” (Hiiro)

“Is that it If anyone canificence of the Tree of origin It would be crazy not to appreciated it” (Arnold)

“That is ” (Hiiro)

“…Well, that is true” (Arnold)

That was all, but Hiiro thought there was on, definitely so that the Gaburanth would boast about

Instead of hearing rumors about a tree, he wanted to know more information about what he wanted to do here

“That aside, you caht, to meet that someone?” (Arnold)

“Right, yes, I’ve received their treasured honey from those people, so I have to at least fulfill their request” (Hiiro)

“What, isn’t that the whole of point e?”(Arnold)

“Yes, that was the point, but if they don’t get the honey won’t they be in a bad mood” (Hiiro)

Arnold thought that bringing the sweet honey would create a better otiations

“Still, the Gaburanth has already startedto war Are you sure the were-bears aren’t already out hunting with that group?” (Hiiro)

The city seehly likely that all those that can fight have already set off with the vanguard in preparation for war Currently, there is a high chance that only the minimal defence force is in this area

“Hmm, I wonder…” (Hiiro)

“Hey, what do you mean? Do you mean the civilians?” (Arnold)

Unlike adventurers, ordinary citizens do not have enough strength to participate in a war They are likely to continue living their ordinary lives

However, Arnold shakes his head in denial

“Well, certainly ordinary citizens don’t usually participate in a war, but ht on a daily basis to fulfill their needs” (Arnold)

“Is that true? Isn’t was a job for the soldiers?” (Hiiro)

“Everything is voluntary, but the Gaburanth is a fighting force and they usually gather without anyone asking” (Arnold)

“That may be the case, but can’t they reject it?” (Hiiro)

(TL: My interpretations of the conversation starts here)

“They can, but if it is the decision of that person They are unlikely to do so” (Arnold)

“Isn’t there so else we can do?” (Hiiro)

“We should finish one task first and worry about another one later” (Arnold)

“That is true but, who is that person gathering the Gaburanth for war” (Hiiro)

Miru looked at Arnold for a response but he was very hesitated to do so

“What is wrong?” (Miru)

Hearing it frohed and said aloud, “That person is……my mentor”
