I see a twin-leafed tree demon moving in my hand.

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

It has three thin roots and is desperately trying to get up.

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

I stare at it, and it pulls and pulls, but stands up.

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

He stood up, Dad.

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

It's just like that.

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

He's kind of cute.

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

He's still a little wobbly.

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

Come to think of it, the book I looked up after the attack only had information on the parents.

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

If a child is born, what does it need first?

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

Tree demons are plants, right?

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

Soil, water, nutrients?"

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

Is that the first thing on your mind?"

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

I nod my head at the father's words.

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

Hm?　

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

Was there anything else I should be concerned about?

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

Gee?"

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

The wooden monster looks at me and my father curiously.

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

He shakes his head with a small smile.

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

What is it?

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

Nothing. Do you need water for your child?

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

At his words, the tree demon shakes its body from side to side.

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

Does that mean he doesn't need it?

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

Or did he not get the meaning?

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

Gee!

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

The tree monster brings the root in front of us and moves it with a flapping motion.

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

Then there were drops of water on the roots.

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

'Wow, it can collect water from the air?

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

Gee!

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

Can this child collect it by itself too?"

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

I asked, holding the little wooden monster in my hand a little higher.

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

Gya!

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

It seems to be all right.

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

It's amazing," he said. I wonder what the rest of the nutritional ...... food will be?"

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

The tree monster is a monster that grows by absorbing magical power, so it must be magical power, right?

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

Magic?

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

Can they get it from magic items like Sol?

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

If not, can I give it to him?

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

From your father?

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

Geez.

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

The wooden monster, which was listening to my father's conversation with me, shook a little violently from side to side.

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

It seemed to be different.

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

'No, it's not. Can you tell me what you need?"

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

I looked at the tree monster and pointed with its root at the bag I was carrying on my shoulder.

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

That bag contains the things I need for my trip.

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

I open the lid of the bag, and the root slips into the bag and pulls something out.

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

A purple potion?"

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

'The potion to lift the curse had a bit of special magic in it, didn't it?

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

Really?

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

I didn't know.

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

He lifts the purple potion to eye level.

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

The potion is getting a little cloudy.

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

I wonder if it's okay to use a degraded version of the potion with Sola and the others.

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

I look at the tree demon, and it is staring at the purple potion.

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

Do you want it?"

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

The tree demon wiggles at my words.

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

I handed the bottle to the tree monster, who dexterously used his roots to open the lid of the bottle and pour the contents over his body.

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

"You're very dexterous."

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

You're very dexterous."

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

I looked at the place where the purple potion had been poured and saw that the potion was just about to soak into the wood.

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

The purple potion was just about to soak into the wood.

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

I took the purple potion out of my bag, opened the lid and poured it over the wooden demon child in my hand.

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

Oh, I guess there were too many."

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

In my hand, the purple potion soaked the wooden demon child.

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

When I showed it to my father, he lifted up the child and poured the remaining purple potion on the tree monster in front of him.

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

I poured the remaining purple potion on the tree monster in front of me.

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

'Yeah, it looks fine, especially after being soaked in the potion.

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

He shows me the child tree demon in his hand.

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

It is healthy and wiggly.

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

When they are small, these wiggles are very cute.

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

I'm not sure if I should call her a mother, but the big tree monster in front of me is cute when she wiggles, but she is too powerful compared to her child.

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

'By the way, Ivy, what are you going to do with this baby?

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

What?　I don't know.

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

What am I supposed to do with her?

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

I mean, why did the tree monster give me this child?

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

I looked at the tree demon and it wiggled violently.

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

"Eh~ ...... sorry. What?"

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

The wooden monster stopped moving at my words.

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

It stared at me and then took the child from the father and handed it to me.

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

"Do you mean, 'Here you go'?"

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

The tree monster bobbed up and down at my words.

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

The cave rumbles again.

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

I hold out my hand to accept it, but does this mean I have to raise it?

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

"Dad, do you know how to raise a tree demon?"

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

I have no idea. I think all I have to do is raise the purple potion.

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

Is that all I need to do?"

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

I mean, why did the tree demon give this girl to me?

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

I'm supposed to be the second one with the tree demon, except for that demon from when I was attacked before.

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

'Are you taking me to ......?'

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

What?" "Eh?　I'm going to take her with me. It's dancing so prettily."

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

The tree demon in my hand is jumping around, using its small roots dexterously.

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

It's so small, but it can move in so many different ways. Isn't it amazing, Daddy?

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

He tilted his head while looking at the tree monster in his hand.

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

What's wrong?

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

I've always heard that tree monsters are born when magic builds up in the trees, so it's a little strange to see one with a child.

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

Come to think of it, that's what it says in the book.

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

But then the child was actually born. ......

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

I think there are a lot of ways to have a baby.　And nothing is just one way."

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

Well, maybe."

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

"Geez!

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

"P-p-please!"

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

Nyaun!

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

"Tee-ryuu~!"

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

"Phew!"

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

I heard everyone's voices and turned my gaze to see a wooden demon returning among the rocks of the cave.

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

''Eh?"

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

I wonder when it moved, even though it was by my side until now.

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

I really don't hear a sound.

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

The tree monster quietly entered the crevice, glanced at me, waved its roots from side to side, and disappeared from sight.

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

"It left, didn't it?"

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

"Yeah."

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

Both my father and I were a little stunned as we watched the tree monster leave.

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

We didn't expect it to leave.

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

You left me.

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

Dad looked at the wooden monster child in my hand.

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

I see it.

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

I look at the wooden monster child in my hand too, who seems to be looking up at us.

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

'You're free.

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

'Hmmm, indeed.'

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

The wooden demon child in my hand doesn't seem bothered by the parent's absence.

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

Is this normal among tree demons?

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

Ppppppp~"

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

"Tee-ryooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"

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

"Phew!"

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

"Nya-un!"

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

Sora and the others come to me, probably because they have no one left to play with.

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

"Did you have fun?　I'm glad you got to play with them.

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

"Ppppp~"

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

"Telltelltelltelltelltelltelltelltell."

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

"Phew!"

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

Ciel, thank you for watching over me.

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

"Nyaun!"

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

I patted her head with my free hand in turn.

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

Nya!"

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

Ciel looks at my hand and squeals.

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

Sora and the others seemed to be interested and looked at my hand.

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

Ivy, we should give it a name.

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

That's right.

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

If we're going to travel together, it would be inconvenient without a name.

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

Name ...... tree demon~.

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

"Ah, Tron!　How about Tron?"

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

The wooden demon child stared at me, but when he heard his name, he jumped up and down in my hand.

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

He seems to like it.

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

Yes.

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

I'm glad.

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

But it's still small.

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

If I'm not careful, I might step on it and crush it.

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

Dad, I'm worried about this little thing.

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

Me too. Let's find something at the next dump.

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

Yeah, until then, what are we going to do about ......?
