Chapter 372 - 372: Rite of the Avery part 5 (1/2)
[Inside Forest Dungeon]
With the branch from the Tree of Life on our hand, Farhah begin to channel her wood mana into the branch. It's suppose to be revitalise, with green leaves suppose to sprout but
”This is hard... This will take a while...” [Farhah]
”Take your time. This is a branch from Tree of Life after all. Normal wood and plant magic won't do much” [Calypso]
”I see. Make sense considering how sacred the Tree of Life is” [Khamishah]
Farhah keep channeling her mana, but alas, there's no doubt, there's no progress. Second pass, as it becomes minute, and before long, it becomes hour, and Farhah begin to chug down bottle of mana potion to replenish her mana before
”It's tiring... I'm sorry, but I wanted to take a rest for a bit” [Farhah]
”Considering this is the only way to guide us to the Tree of Life, we should probably just rest now” [Rean]
”Right. Let us take a rest here” [Elise]
”I'll start cooking something. Anything you want?” [Zerolith]
”Can you please make something refreshing...” [Farhah]
”Something refreshing... A fresh fish sandwiches should do the trick” [Zerolith]
”That sound nice” [Farhah]
”Couple of fresh fish sandwiches coming right up” [Zerolith]
”I'll help” [Charlotte]
And thus, we begin to prepare for the night. There's nothing much to do, as we can all just sleep inside the camper van golem. We are all well accustomed to it by now. It's simply luxurious as compared to sleeping inside a tent out there in the middle of a forest surrounded by nothing but bugs, snakes, mosquitoes that will generously offered you with blood borne disease should it suck your blood. There's no way I wanted to take such ”generous” offer
As for The Holy Beast of Earth, Shielding Ant Aries, she simply burrow herself with the ground underneath her, before we offer her some of our sandwiches, and that is when I remember something that I don't want to remember...
”Wait! Don't eat first!” [Charlotte]
”?” [Ant Aries]
~Turn around~ ”Ok, you can eat now” [Charlotte]
She may looks like a five year old version of Mother Aries, or Kara and Mara, but now I remember how horrifying it was when I saw her eating the corpse of the old Holy Beast of Earth, Tyrant Ant Drant. Seeing as to how I quickly turn, the other two who were equally traumatize as I am (Elise and Kara), does the same, while the other simply let out a small chuckles, except Farhah as she let out a sigh, most likely out of frustration of not able to revitalise the branch from Tree of Life
According to Calypso, Farhah should revitalise the branch before it will guide us to the Tree of Life. According to Calypso, any powerful elf can actually do that, as it's only part of the Tree of Life, and as such, Mr Filvisar, an old elf who was one of the surviving ten heroes a hundred years ago, can do the same. Seeing as to how Farhah fail to do what Mr Filvisar can do, I'm sure she's frustrated at her own weakness
And night passes, and when the first morning dew drop, Farhah quickly wakes up and start channeling her mana into the branch once more. She keeps on going until the sun hit its peak before
”IT'S WORKING!” [Farhah]
”Where? Where?” [Mara]
”Here! Take a look at it!” [Farhah]
”Some green leaves do sprout” [Karon]
