Chapter 7-Strange Flowerpot(7)

“Seunghyun’s taste is really unique. Is it a bug documentary today?”

“I-I just suddenly saw this too.”

“Anyway, do the rest. You know that almost all of our video team have to leave today, right?”

“Sure.”

At lunchtime, the team leader approached me and glanced at my monitor.

Today is the day most of the team members have to go on a business trip. Thanks to that, I was left alone in the office, doing only editorial work.

If this is the case, there is no reason to stick to the office, so I started to organize my work in advance so that I can sneak home when they leave.

‘Mealworms…But they’re too big.’

After the work was finished, the Internet window reappeared. What I was looking for was about bugs, and I was looking for bugs to put in pots.

As an elf, she hunted bugs. She hunted and got something, and with it she grew herself and her world tree.

So she wanted to hunt herself. She catches and puts her mosquitoes in to respond to the wind, but her mosquitoes, which fall into the same potted world as here, evolve into her demon beast and become her savage enemies that threaten her.

He was obviously weak and insignificant, and he was the kind of guy I even removed his wings from, but in the end, the story has nothing to do with the world inside the pot.

In other words, I had to select the prey taking all of that into consideration.

Mealworm larvae of mealworms that I’m looking at now are also weak and worm-like worms that are used as food here and there, but they are too big for her size in millimeters and I don’t know how to mutate, so I excluded them from the candidates.

The only thing that seems to be possible is the type of ant, and there are various types of ants, but if you put one in each, it might be worth it.

‘Aren’t those scattered ants?’

The ants are also sold on the Internet along with the breeding set, but it didn’t seem necessary to spend money to buy them.

So that afternoon, as soon as I got off work, I put my stuff down and went out of the villa again to catch ants.

“Uh.”

Only when I catch a few ants and put them in a paper cup.

I saw a courier with a heavy-looking package passing me and going up to my house.

“Ha, am I really crazy?”

Once I received the parcel, I opened it and took it out, and I couldn’t help but sigh.

In the meantime, there are many cases where I gave up on spending money on myself after thinking about it for several days. However, this black mechanical bow in front of me right now, I bought it right away after thinking about it for a few hours even though I had never shot a bow before.

It also means that I am sincere to the elf in the pot. It was a dungeon, and when she was chased and run away by the monster ant occupying a part of the flower pot, she felt that she did not want to feel that emotion again, so she decided to buy it.

After looking at it for a while, I gathered my heart and stood up. I was thinking of giving her a whole case of bows and arrows in her set.

Currently, in the pot, she is organizing supplies as usual, making necessary items, and looking at the bonsai.

Particularly, he is putting a lot of effort into making wooden fences by gruntingly moving timbers taller than his own height and driving them into the ground. Even now, with a homemade string attached to a toothpick firmly buried in her bottom, she struggled with her limbs to stand upright.

Just as her ant can exert great strength compared to her own body, she gritted her teeth to see if her strength was not weak and pulled her rope. It is lifted.

After that, I meticulously filled the gaps with the soil I shoveled out with a shovel, and almost half of the pots were already made like that.

“I think I can do it while taking a little break.”

I smiled bitterly and held out a bow case that was bigger than the flower pot towards the flower pot.

Of course, when you fall into the world inside the pot. The case of the compound bow, which had to be scaled, went there in a very small state.

“—“

I don’t know what to say, but as she was wiping her sweat and catching her breath, she saw the bow case falling from the sky, widening her eyes and running away.

I got used to it, but I still wanted it. I laughed out loud when I realized that I was doing this to see her happy.

[Elf’s Prayer – Gratitude and Blessing]

She rushed over and squatted down on the case buried in the soft soil. After successfully opening the lid, she realized that the unfamiliar object inside was a bow and absentmindedly lifted it.

It is a somewhat heterogeneous combination of an elf and a modern compound bow, but a bow is a bow.

She awkwardly fidgeted with it, and then, with a smile on her face, she held it up and looked up at the sky.

Until now, she had rejected some of the things I gave her as if she couldn’t bear to use them, so she tried just in case, but fortunately she didn’t. Rather, it is just a prayer of thanksgiving to me.

And right after that, she held up a bow, not a toothpick arrow, but a steel arrow.

I wondered if he knew how to use it, but after looking at it a few times, he quickly loaded an arrow into his bow, pulled the string, and shot it toward the wooden fence he had built.

‘Are you surprised?’

I couldn’t even see the arrow being shot with a bluish aura. All that was left of her was her hair, her eyes wide open as if in surprise.

She seemed nonsensical. The look on her face as she looked down at the arrow she held in her hand made it clear that she wouldn’t refuse my gift.

Then now it’s time to practice.

As she scanned her bow with her curious eyes, she grabbed one of her prepared ants with tweezers and dropped it into her flower pot.

[Progress of Demonic Beast Transformation]

As if it were natural, the ant I gave him also became a monster as he became a monster. Sharp thorns and larger jaws.

The size is smaller than the monster ant in the dungeon, and it’s actually a kind of small house ant, but in the other world, it’s a monster similar in size to her.

‘I can win.’

As a spectator, I’m pretty sure, but wouldn’t she be more certain?

She fell from the sky, baring her chin at herself, glaring at the charging ant. Without hesitation or embarrassment, she picked up her compound bow and sent her body flying.

“As expected.”

A faint smile came out. She wasn’t wrong with my idea of giving her her new weapon, and her sacrifice of my wallet.

Even though she raised her bow, she ran towards her ant. Right before colliding with her ant, she spurred her ground and soared into the air, then turned her backflip and threw her bow at the ant in that state. Aimed.

The arrow, which aimed not at the head and chest of the ant with a hard carapace, but at the rather soft stomach, flew with bluish power this time as well, literally bursting the ant’s belly and killing it instantly.

After that, she landed softly on the ground and retrieved her arrow from the body of the fallen ant. Like me, she herself is laughing as if she is very satisfied.

I thought that maybe I could really catch the monster in its gloomy lair. Since her life, including food, clothing and shelter, has come into a stable area, it seems that if she continues hunting like this, she will really be able to catch it.

[According to the growth of the world tree, the ant nest in the underworld vibrates]

“…What?”

But at that moment. As if I shouldn’t be relieved just yet, a faraway phrase floated in the air.

***

‘What nonsense is this all of a sudden?’

Leaving her still unaware of her circumstances and intoxicated with the joy of her hunting, I hurriedly shifted my gaze to her.

“This is…”

And when I saw it, I sighed. Apparently, the monster that had been hiding in its burrow until just before that and doing nothing was crawling out of the burrow with its head out.

I don’t know why. I’m sure I’ve seen people say that the ant’s nest is going to grow according to the growth of the world tree, but what kind of causal relationship are there between the two?

But the enemies don’t hesitate. Among her ants, many of her ants, starting with the monster ant, which is the size of a slightly larger ant, are crossing her flower pot all at once, heading towards her, or rather, her ‘bonsai’.

“It’s dangerous.”

Her heart sank and her goosebumps made me hurry to tell her about this. Not knowing this yet, she was burying the corpse of the ant she hunted.

Calling out was useless and I was in a situation where I couldn’t reach, but what I saw was a post-it next to the chair.

I drew a picture on it in a hurry. Her crappy, blown-up drawings of her gigantic monster ants approaching her.

Do you understand this? Immediately tossing it into her planter, she made sure to catch it as it landed on her own head.

‘Good.’

Besides, I understood my intentions.

Having become her contemplative, she put her bow on her back and hurriedly ran to the planet Saturn she had made.

The procession of giant monsters that can be seen even from her point of view. She clenched her fists with trembling hands to defend the Bonsai and the World Tree alone against them.

There is no hesitation in that body movement that moves straight away, as if thinking that it must have come anyway.
