Chapter 58 (1/2)

Visitors' Objective (2)

“……I don't get it. Why am I the saviour?”

I can't imagine the image of me saving somebody at all. Much less, the Demihuman Race that I have no obligation to save. In reality, Liscia is b.l.o.o.d.y holding her sides. I'll play with that head like a ball afterwards.

“Firstly, I shall speak about our country's current situation. In our country, there is something called the『Divinity Tree』which is said to be created by G.o.ddess Fistoria”

Divinity Tree huh. I might want to beat the h.e.l.l out of it when I see it. Excessively so after I'm told it's created by the G.o.ddess.

“Thanks to that Divinity Tree, an endless supply of water gushes out, various herbs and plenty of crops grow at the base of the tree. However, the problem started to arise several months ago”

“Problem?”

“Yes. The Divinity Tree suddenly started to bear a fruit”

……What's the problem with that? It's a tree so it'll bear a fruit or two, right? I thought and looked around and, everybody who came from the Demihuman Country is making ominous expressions. Melda also makes a similar expression and proceeds with the conversation.

“I know what Hardt-dono is thinking. I would think the same if that fruit is something harmless…….”

“So there's a problem huh?”

“Yes. The fruit that grew, it is not an actual fruit…… it is an egg”

……that's what it is huh. Anybody can imagine what happened after being told this much. I suppose the egg hatched and a monster appeared from within.

“And, the monster that appeared from that egg is?”

“……It is a Divine Beast”

……something beyond my imagination appeared. To think that a legendary creature like the Divine Beast appeared. It definitely has something to do with that G.o.ddess, that s.h.i.+tty woman.

Divine Beast……as the name suggests, is a beast that possesses G.o.d's power. Although its category comes under monster, its strength is incomparable to an ordinary monster. If it even just go berserk, the land will split, the atmosphere will shake, and it will destroy everything. The likes of a country will be gone in an instant.

“It's a marvel that the country survived even though such a monstrosity appeared”

“Yes. It is thanks to each and every elder suppressing it currently that the casualties are somehow being kept to the minimum. However, that is also……”

“It's a matter of time huh”

However, I don't think I'll be able to save them just by going there though. But, a Divine Beast huh. I want to kill it and make it my subordinate. If I did that, my military strength should go up quite a bit. As I'm thinking about such things

“From Her Majesty, I was given the words, ‘You can have the corpse on the occasion that you defeat it'”
