"......Whew, thank God. Thank you both."

"Brother Ars, are you okay?"

"I managed to ......, no, I can't move any more. But I thought I was dead when that thing attacked me. Thanks for saving my life. Thank you, Kyle."

"No, it's not like that. You should thank Thanatos instead of me. He was looking for me in the woods when I told him I lost you and my brother Ars.

"Well, thank you, Thanatos."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

No, no. I'm glad you're safe.

　I thank them for their help after I see that the bony body of the immortal dragon has crumbled into pieces and is no longer moving.

　From the looks of things, Kyle and Thanatos are both in good health with no major injuries.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I, on the other hand, was hurt rather badly.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I sit down on the ground and slowly catch my breath, spitting out the blood in my mouth again.

"But what the hell is wrong with Kyle?　Why were you controlling the trees in the forest like that? Isn't that the same thing that the guy who attacked me and Thanatos in the first place did?"

"We'll get to that later, brother Ars. We need to take care of that wound first. Wait a minute. I'll get some herbs for the wound.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Uh, yeah, okay. Then let's rest for a while.

　He asks Kyle what has been bothering him while fighting the immortal bone dragon.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But he tells me that it can wait.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Apparently, he had seen some herbs nearby that could be used as medicine.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Kyle and Thanatos go to get the herbs.

　In the meantime, I decided to build a brick building in a suitable space and wait in it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I'm going to wait in the brick building.

"Well, you mean that the voice that was calling Kyle in the forest was an old tree in this forest?　He asked me to make a contract with the spirit of the tree and slay the dragon of immortals. ....... Really?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"It's true, Brother Ars. Don't you believe me ......?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"No, I'm sorry. No, I'm sorry. No, you're not, Kyle. You don't think I'd doubt anything Kyle says? But I do have to say I'm surprised. I didn't know that was possible."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"It is not uncommon for people to make contracts with spirits."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Is that so, Thanatos?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The warriors of Atmos also contract with spirits to gain power. Are you different, Ars?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I guess I'm a little different. I'm not quite the same. I have magic from the church, from the Fontana family, and from the naming ceremony."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"...... I see."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"But why did that tree of the forest thingy ask Kyle to do such a reckless thing? Of course Kyle shouldn't fight such a dangerous guy. I'm starting to get pissed off at ....... You want me to go and complain about it?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"You don't have to do that, Brother Ars. Besides, it makes me happy. I'm glad I have the power to help you, brother Ars.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Well, if Kyle says so. But the next time that tree says something like that, you tell me first, okay?　You don't have to do anything dangerous."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Thank you, brother Ars."

　During a break in the woods, I talked to Kyle.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The story was truly fantastic.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　As we were moving through the forest, Kyle was the only one who heard the call.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It came from a large tree that had been growing in these woods for a long time.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The tree had wandered into the forest and asked Kyle for a favor.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It asked him to slay the Immortal Bone Dragon in exchange for giving his power to Kyle.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　An immortal who corrupts his surroundings just by being there.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It was the worst thing that could happen to the ancient trees that had the power to control the trees in the forest.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It seems that the tree tried to do something about it to prevent the area near where it was located from rotting away.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, he could not defeat or repel the immortal bone dragon only by controlling the trees in the forest.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But then Kyle appeared.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The tree said that it sensed Kyle's pure spirit.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, the two beings attached to Kyle did not want to get close to him.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　So he called out to Kyle only and stopped us.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　What the hell is that?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It's as if my heart is unclean.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Well, that's how it happened and Kyle got to meet the ancient tree.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And he was to ask it to stop its attack on us.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And he swore to fight the Immortal Bone Dragon on the condition that he stop attacking us with plants.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　How could they offer such an exchange in a forest like this?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It's a very mundane tree, don't you think?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　So Kyle was given the power by an ancient tree.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He made a contract with the spirit of the tree and became able to control plants.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He met Thanatos in the forest and was running around the forest looking for me when he and Thanatos got separated.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　There, he felt a loud noise and a wave of magic power, and ran to me, just in time to rescue me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But this story makes me think about the existence of spirits.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Considering the fact that I can use the "Ice Spirit Summoning", which is a higher level magic of Fontana, the first head of the Fontana family must have made a contract with an ice spirit.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The act of a contract between a spirit and a human must have been in existence for quite some time.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And it is the same for the people of the east like Thanatos.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It seems that all the warriors of Atmos have made a contract with spirits to obtain the magic to become giants.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　This means that the founders of noble families may have made a contract with spirits in many cases.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It seems that if they make a contract with spirits, they can perform magic phenomena more freely, though their attributes are limited, and it may be easier for them to create spells.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Kyle could not manipulate plants with magic before, but now that he has made a contract with a tree spirit, he can do various things easily.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Well, I'll tell Kyle not to create offensive spells unnecessarily, okay?　The Reed family might suddenly all have offensive magic."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Oh, I see. That's what happens when you create spells. I understand, brother Ars.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　You might want to do a little more research on spirits.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But that can wait.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I applied the herbs that Kyle had gathered to my chest using the method of making medicines that Meme had taught me, and rested for the night.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I really wanted to rest longer, but this forest was dangerous even though I had defeated the Immortal Bone Dragon.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　There are many other dangerous creatures such as giant boars and ogres.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Therefore, I decided to get out of the forest as soon as possible rather than to rest my aching body.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The next day, we started moving immediately, and it took us many days, but we managed to leave the forest safely.
