Overgeared

“Thank you.”

She would surely call the five elemental kings, even if it meant withering. Grid felt the sincere will and eliminated the traces of doubt buried deep in his heart.

‘I’m certain. The world tree doesn’t have a friendly relationship with Asgard.’

In fact, it was natural. If the world tree had interacted with the gods, she wouldn’t have become sick from Yatan’s essence. Additionally, the Overgeared Guild wouldn’t have contracted with the elementals.

The reason Grid had been wary of the world tree was that, at the roots, the world tree was a divine tree. People believed that the world tree was a tree planted by the gods. There was a story that the first thing Rebecca did when creating the world was to plant the world tree.

From Grid’s perspective, it was difficult to rule out the possibility that the world tree was under Rebecca’s control. Putting aside the rapport that his colleagues shared with the elements, he was mindful of the possibility of being betrayed by the world tree.

Fortunately, it was groundless. At this moment, the world tree declared that she would give her lifespan for Grid. It wasn’t empty words. The world tree immediately put it into practice. Graphics that were hard to see in any culture emerged around the world tree and formed rules. The rules produced new forms, colors, and attributes, and became four different magic circles.

“Mother...!” The elves exclaimed. It wouldn’t be strange if they cried right away based on their expressions. It was a reaction that proved the sincerity of the world tree.

Summoning the elemental kings—Filewolf’s prediction that it would be a burden on the current world tree was right. The branches that extended toward immeasurable areas like discussing infinity were withered. The green leaves became haggard like autumn leaves just before falling after a season ended.

Grid could feel it. The ‘status’ of the world tree had fallen. It was a sacrifice for Grid.

Crack!

Eventually, the twisted white bark lost its luster and fell down with an eerie sound. The image of the transparent essence flowing from the trunk of the world tree overlapped with the image of the blood shed by Biban and Mir.

Beings who fought for Grid against all types of dangers—the world tree was like them.

Four magic circles were soon completed.

[The fire elemental king has appeared.]

[The water elemental king has appeared.]

[The earth elemental king has appeared.]

[The wind elemental king has appeared.]

A dimension divided differently from hell, the surface, and heaven—the rulers of the ‘elemental world’ had appeared.

-I'm sorry. For me, this is the limit.

The shapes made of light circled in the air and made noises, but the magic circle wasn’t completed. They were traces of trying to summon the light elemental king. It was even though she heard that Yura would be in charge of summoning the light elemental king. The world tree wouldn’t be pointlessly stubborn.

‘She decided that Yura won’t be able to summon the light elemental king.’

The road to the forest—throughout the journey, Yura’s expression had been dark. Grid thought it was because of FIlewolf’s perverted actions, but after looking back on it, she was probably worried because it was difficult to communicate with the light elemental king.

Yura approached. “How long will the elemental kings be present?”

She couldn’t hide her nervousness as she asked this. She was worried about whether she could summon the light elemental king first, or if the other elemental kings would leave first.

The world tree replied.
