59 Episode 57: Anger of the Genus




 The carriage finally drives through the wilderness and reaches the entrance to the Waste Garden. But like a gatekeeper, a huge stalk emerges from the ground, blossoming, splitting in half and opening its fang-filled mouth.

''I couldn't come here until the divine tree that was so angry and treacherous ...... abandoned got to this point. What a foolish thing to do .......
''Your Highness, the divine tree has led us to it. So we'll definitely make it!
...... glass, how can you ...... be so strong? How can you remain unmoved after seeing all those scenes? It's all because of what the royal family has done. I also played a part in that ......
'I won't make that mistake again. They may indeed be angry ...... but they're sad at the same time. They didn't give up on the Lord who tried to wither away alone and alone, and they didn't give up on the divine tree who tried to end up noble, their subordinates. If you are going to destroy everything without any idea of what to expect, you have no choice but to defeat it and move on. But that won't be the end of anything.

 His Highness regrets the actions of the royal family in disposing of the divine tree and this garden. She feels that she should be judged even if she didn't do it.

 I know how noble and pure her heart is. But when she has sacrificed herself to fight for her country, she doesn't have to bear the sins of the royal family in the past.

I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make the same look again. ...... The plants and flowers can be reincarnated in the same way if the body remains intact. That's something that no animal can imitate. That's why I admired plants. When I made a contract with the spirits, I caught a glimpse of the spirit of the divine tree. I want to bring that scene back to reality. If His Highness and the people pray, it's not a dream that will never come true because ......!
Let me handle this! You all need to get there and help that tree! Dr. Glass, I'm leaving His Highness in charge!
Presha ......, I can't go to ...... alone.

 His Highness ran out and we followed. Mr. Presha had dismounted his horse and, carrying his spear, had jumped out, breaking the membrane of clean air that Leslie had established.

'--His Highness ......, don't stand in front of Dr. Glass!

 A spear longer than Presha-san's height. But it can't slash the flower stalk, which is thicker than before - or so I thought.

''Hah! ......!

 With a cry of enthusiasm, I saw Presha-san, perhaps unconsciously, pass her magic power through the spear.

 At the same time, Plesha-san's spear was swung out and the two flower demons lined up in a row were torn apart horizontally - the destructive power like a siege weapon, the destructive power like a siege weapon made both of us gasp.

''--Presha, not yet! There are still roots left in ......!
Kook ...... ahhhh ......!

 A flower root sticks out from under Presha-san's feet, twisting her legs together and suspending her in midair. His Highness Astina holds up her sword, but the flower root moves to shield Presha-san and doesn't let His Highness swing the sword.

''Kuu ...... uu ...... let go of me ...... in a place like this!

 One after another, roots emerge from the ground and become entangled in Presha-san's arms - we can only watch as she is deprived of her freedom.

(If Deite-san is there ...... no, if they use Presha-san as a shield, they can't aim very well. What else can we do? ......)

"Summoner! It's a flower for a flower! I want you to let me handle it!
"Alraune: ...... All right! 'O demon flower, return to the Garden of Pandera and bloom brightly.' ......!

 The body made of Alraune's magic is reconstituted from the bulb once it is unmanifested - and then transformed into a giant flower using the magic of your highness and me.

(I'm like you, Flower Incarnate ...... Stop fighting and listen to me!

"Huh ...... is this the voice of Alraune ......? This flower is her: ......

 I was surprised for the first time, too - the voice of the giant flowering Alraune was no longer a child's.

 The demon flower still had some power left in it that I didn't know about. If we are lumped together as the same flower, we can interfere even if we are demonized - the roots that bound Presha-san were loosened, and Alraune's leaves stretched out to catch her as she was about to fall off.

(Leave it to me here!) (I'll protect Mr. Presha and his carriage!

'Okay ...... Mr. Presha, Alraune, I'll be back soon, I promise! Hold on until then!

 The always sturdy Presha-san smiled a little weakly - but in the next moment. 
If you ask me, I'll stop a thousand or even ten thousand people. It doesn't matter if the other party is a monstrous flower: ......!
'Presha, don't cut in for mischief, take help from Alraune! If you can slow the enemy down, you can avoid being caught: ...... You can do it!
"Yes, ......, by Your Highness... ......!

 After receiving His Highness' instructions, Presha-san's movements change. The flowers that emerge from the ground one after another and attack us, with the help of Alraune, we repel them without fail, and thanks to her attracting us, we even open up the path we're on.

''We're going to run all the way through from here!
"Yes!

 I think I've instructed Leslie to run while maintaining her magic, but even His Highness replies - but this is not the time to reiterate that I'm being rude.

 We run along the road with its exposed weathered stone tiles. One after another, plants we've never seen before appear and attack us, but the clean air surrounding us slows us down for a moment and we are able to avoid them in the nick of time.

 --And we saw the divine tree at the end of the long downward staircase.

 We barely prevented the miasma that was being released, but we were never frightened to proceed.

 The first time I ran out of magic crystals, my hand finally touched the trunk of the great tree. But now that Your Highness is here, even in the midst of such a storm of miasma, my magic power was not depleted.
