It may be a little cold, but whether Yggdra is destroyed, after all, is of little concern to me who is based in the Imperial Capital, and this time I got involved because I happened to come here to lift Luke's curse, but without that I would have been oblivious to the crisis the World Tree is facing and would have been relaxing in the Imperial Capital. The word "Abnormal outbreak of the World Tree" certainly has a very dangerous smell, but I don't really know what exactly is dangerous.

The reason I am often told that I don't have a sense of urgency is because I don't understand anything.

Sytry, who is always perceptive, says happily on my behalf.

We do not live as long as "Spirit People (Noble)", but that is why we record and verify the paths we have taken in detail. As far as I know, the civilization on this planet has been destroyed and reborn many times. We know nothing about the previous civilizations in detail, we can only speculate from what the Treasure Shrines have manifested so we don't know any details. What might have happened at that moment when the civilization was destroyed (Sytry)

Kruz *gokuri* gulps. Everyone is drawn into Sytry's story.

Since a long time ago, she has like to hole up in the library to read books, but Sytry really knows a lot of things. And somehow the flow of the story seems to be getting quite weird Why do you look so happy, Sytry-chan?

And I think Cry-san thinks the same wayBut this is what I am inferring from Serene's story. The people of Yggdra might have seen the end of the World Tree onceThe end of the road when Mana Materials saturate. What do you think? (Sytry)

N-No, I wasn't thinking about that at all, you know Seriously, she always tries to lift me up at every turn she can. Normally I would deny it immediately, but now I am curious about Serene's answer.

When I check Serene to verify this, our eyes cross paths at that exact moment. Her endlessly transparent and quiet light green eyes are like mirrors. It reflects my dumb face.

Our eyes met for only a few seconds. Serene gently averts her gaze with a natural gesture. I was hoping that Sytry's guess was off the mark, but her reaction says it all.

I look toward the World Tree, which seems to have turned into an uncharted world. When I first saw it, its sheer size and the constant leaves falling from it gave me a mystical impression, but after hearing her story, I find it frightening.

After waiting a few dozens of seconds, Serene finally opens her mouth. Her voice, which is mixed with resignation, is enough to make even me, who has been told to not have any sense of danger, feel a sense of danger. (f)reeweb(n)ovel.com

You are right. The collapse of the World Tree is not just a problem for Yggdra. The World Tree is the source of all earth veins, and there are only a limited number of beings who would manifest there. We, the people of Yggdra, call the Treasure Shrine that has once manifested in the World Treeand has now manifested again. The beginning of the end of the world. The place where the god who brings disaster is bornThe Temple of Origin. It is not right now, but if things continue like this, in the not-too-distant future, the shadow of a god born from the World Tree will destroy this world's civilization." (Serene)

This is I just came to lift Luke's curse, but it has turned into an outrageous story. Like the Curse incident or the Key of the Earth incident, there are too many dangers in this world.

Regardless of the truth or falsity of what Serene said, it seems that, for once, we can't just ignore the problem. Something must be done, but it is indeed too much for me. This is an Ark project.

How far away is that not-too-distant future? (Cry)

Whether it is figuring out a countermeasure or gathering forces, we need time. If the world is destroyed, it won't matter if we can or cannot lift Luke's petrification. As I timidly confirm with her, Serene takes a deep breath and says with a pale expression.

It is in the not-too-distant future. According to the records passed down to us, there is a process to the descent of the god. Its domain has already appeared, so it will appear as soon as Mana Materials accumulate. According to Yggdra's calculation, it will take less than 200 yearsNo, maybe 100 years would be enough to accumulate it!! We should consider the worst and act accordingly! (Serene)

!? U-Un, un, that's right. (Cry)

100 years Huuuh. Come to think of it, you people are long-lived.

It sounds dangerous to say that this world will end in 100 years, but I wouldn't live for even 100 years. Liz and the others may be alive because of the power of Mana Materials, but I definitely won't be.

I don't know if it is a blessing in the midst of this misfortune, but I have calmed down a little. I *panpan* clap my hands and *gururi* check around me.

At any rate, there is no point in panicking right now. I have an idea. Even if it is only 100 years, we still have time, so for now let's start thinking about lifting Luke's curse. (Cry)

When I get back to the Imperial Capital, I'll push itTell it to Ark, yup.
