A young girl in a village without protection - Chapter 104

Translator: NovelMultiverse | Editor: NovelMultiverse

The day after Selesina and the others arrived safely at the Rinklat House, they began to work on the big tree that had not bloomed.

However, there was not much Selesina could do but pray for success.　

Present were Selesina, Hisui, Toi, Basell, Asalge, and Oswell.

Lucaria and Hel stood together in front of a large tree that had never bloomed.

It was growing so fast that it was over two meters tall. It’s no wonder that Selesina’s heart was filled with impatience, as she knew she had to take action as soon as possible.

“This is another huge one that’s going to break your bones…..”

Hel stared at him distantly and looked up to the sky. The weather was clear, not a single black cloud in sight, no chance of rain.

“But we can’t just leave it like this. If it continues to grow, it could have a negative impact on the earth.”

“I understand.”

Selesina gasped at Lucaria’s words. It seems that when the great never-blooming tree keeps growing, more trouble than we thought will happen.

Hel turns to me and says, “Alright then.”

“I’m going to kill the big tree that never bloomed. It’s a big one, so it’ll take quite a while, but….. shouldn’t be a problem.”

“Thank you for your help, Master Hel, Master Lucaria.”

As Basell bowed, Selesina and the others bowed as well.

(……it means that Hel will kill the big tree, right?)

As Selesina watched them with excitement, Hel closed his eyes and touched the great tree that had not bloomed. Immediately, the air around them trembled.

The tree, which looked as if it was rejecting Hel, seemed to have a will of its own.

“O God, my protector, take away the life force of the great tree that never bloomed.”

Something black erupted from the part of Hel’s hand that touched the blossomless tree. It spread to the area around them and came towards Selesina and the others.

Then he felt dizzy. This is probably the thing that was making him feel sick.

(I start to feel sick too……)

If we continue to be exposed to it, we might be in trouble, but Hel is much closer to it.

I wondered if he would be okay, even though he looked weak. When Selesina turned around, Hel was just wobbling around.

“Watch out……!”

Before Selesina could react, Lucaria supported Hel’s back to prevent him from falling.

He then said a prayer.

“I am a servant of Baldur, God of Light, and I pray that you may give us light to protect us from the great tree that has taken root and defiled this land.”

As Lucaria spun his prayer, the grass and flowers on the ground softly swayed.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]

And then a soft light began to shine down, and Baldur, the God of Light, protected Selesina and the others from the black stuff of the unblooming giant tree.

(Alright, it feels less creepy now……)

The faint glow of Lucaria appears to be so holy, he even looks like a god himself.

Hel, on the other hand, seems to have been able to recover with the help of Lucaria’s blessings. He continues to absorb the life force of the great unblooming tree.

But he is still wobbly, so it must be very painful.

(That’s right, even though it’s a non-blooming tree… it was also a big tree to begin with.)

As I was looking at them praying, rain clouds suddenly came over my head. Even though it had been sunny just a few minutes ago…

But because of this, the power of Lucaria’s blessing was visibly weakened. Hel’s suffering also seemed to be increasing.

“The rain……”

“I’ll get you an umbrella as soon as I can.”

Hisui ran quickly to the house to get an umbrella.

The rain clouds were huge and it was not going to stop for a while. If it continues like this, it may hinder us from dealing with the big tree that never bloomed.

(Anyway, there’s nothing you can do about the weather……)

Even with an umbrella, if the rain clouds don’t disappear, the power of Lucaria’s protection will remain weak.

I wish I could do something to help, Selesina thought.

But the choice of the goddess of fate, Norn, did not come up in the great tree that never bloomed. I’m starting to feel closer to my blessings, but I can’t use them freely yet.

However, she could at least support Hel’s back, couldn’t she? Thinking this, Selesina stepped forward.

“Lady Selesina?”

“I may not be able to help you, but I could support you…….”

Saying that, Selesina supported Hel’s back together with Lucaria. But there was nothing more they could do.

Hel, who had been in pain, giggled.

“Huh, ha …… Thank you, Selesina. I think I can do it.”

Thank you, Lady Selesina. Will you pray with me? I’m sure your voice will be heard.”

“Yes.”

Selesina closed her eyes and prayed to Norn, the Goddess of Fate, who was inside her. I’m sure she’ll be able to hear me.

At that moment, Selesina’s left eye glowed baby pink, and an option appeared.

▽Which option will you choose?

The rain never stops, and the big tree that never blooms takes root.

The sun shines, and the great tree that never blooms withers.

– I saw my destiny.

“No, of course not.”

Feeling her heart beating faster, Selesina made her choice.

If the rain doesn’t stop, the great tree that never blooms will take root.

If the sun shines, the tree withers.

“Let the ‘fate’ of the great tree that never bloomed wither……!”

The moment Selesina said this, the rain clouds above her head scattered.

At the same time as a clear sky appeared, the great tree without bloom withered away and disappeared.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
