"You…" The bully widened his eyes, shocked to find Noel helping him. He thought Noel was weaker than him that needed some helps, but it turned out to be the other way around. Even when he glanced at Noel's previous spot, he knew Noel had cut them down with only a graze.

However, Noel didn't care about his opinion and immediately turned around, finding Alfred getting surrounded by five roots at the same time. He seemed to have a hard time fighting against the roots.

Noel rushed to Alfred without hesitation and took the demon by surprise, cutting down two roots in rapid succession.

Their reaction was the same. Alfred never expected Noel could achieve all this.

On the contrary, Noel simply said, "Kill the demon!"

Alfred's body trembled before he recalled his confidence and goal. Without hesitation, he ran to the tree demon and let Noel take care of the roots.

Unfortunately for him, he didn't realize that Noel was using him to check the demon's capability.

The tree demon could indeed manipulate the roots to attack them. It would be extremely dangerous if it ambushed them out of nowhere. However, the roots were not the only part of the tree.

Even a human could punch, kick, and even headbutt their enemy to inflict damage. Hence, he believed the demon that had been described as scary creature would have more capability than he thought.

Just like he predicted, the branches started moving and expanding not only from the width, but also the wide.

The roots came out of the ground and began to turn the trunk around, showing a huge craved face on the trunk. The giant branches looped around, surrounding Alfred from all directions.

"Tsk." Alfred clicked his tongue and jumped to the side, trying to avoid the encirclement before moving to the tree side.

When he was about to strike the tree with his sword, the leaves fell on top of him.

Because he had seen roots and branches, Alfred stopped in his track and went to the other side, avoiding the leaves that turned out to be just a distraction.
