Elves Have Migrated to My Planter

Chapter 8-Strange Flowerpot(8)

Chapter 8-Strange Flowerpot(8)

Elves, World Trees, or Demonic Beasts, etc. As a bystander, I can only judge what is going on in the world inside the potted plant by looking at what it looks like on the outside.

That’s why I’ve been ignoring it until now. Everything about her story and why this happened to my potted plant.

There was nothing I could do anyway, so I just tried to accept this reality as it is now, putting all those complicated things aside.

A relationship where the immigrant woman just cares for her new life and I help and watch over her. It was a pity that we couldn’t communicate directly with each other, but I thought that sometimes it was enough for her to look up and smile at me when I couldn’t see her.

Because she and I are obviously different beings. Because the world we live in and the race are different.

However, the ever-changing environment continued to shake our relationship.

To her, the ordeal of her life comes and goes, and to me, the harsh reality that presents only tedious and terrible doubts and nervousness.

It still is. While I couldn’t help but watch, she gritted her teeth and bravely faced the enemies.

The only thing we can know is that those monster ants are now hostile to that bonsai that has a great influence on this flower pot, that is, the World Tree.

That hostility was definitely not a hunt for food.

The reason why they jumped out of their burrows and attempted an attack must have something to do with the growth of the World Tree. She values the World Tree very much, so after all, she and those ants cannot coexist.

‘Normal ants don’t seem to have a problem.’

She put down her compound bow, took up her old bow, and fired a wooden arrow at the other ants near the monster beast, which boasted a massive and grotesque appearance.

It was not an ordinary wooden arrow. The arrow, which had a darker blue color than before, penetrated the bodies of the ants at once and killed them instantly.

But the beast ant that once made her run away in terror was different. A hard shell that easily bounces off wooden arrows.

As if she knew this would happen, she raised her compound bow again. Now it’s 1v1.

[Elf’s Prayer – Victory Prayer]

On the verge of a proper battle with the beast ants. She prayed briefly, and the prayer to the World Tree was delivered to me as well.

[The World Tree is hostile to the Witchbeast]

At the same time, the world capital seemed to have answered her prayers and began to try something of her.

I could clearly see it in my eyes. The back of her right hand, which held her arrow in accordance with the will of the World Tree, which dimly glowed the pattern engraved on her trunk, obtained while growing up to level 2, was also glowing.

“—-!”

Her arrow, shot from her compound bow, flew through the air at once and pierced the carapace of the monster ant’s head, which was exceptionally hard. But even as her cracks chipped and her bodily fluids dripped, the monster ant didn’t stop, ramming Saturn into her body, as if not caring about her scars.

My whole body flinched. The guy smashed her wooden fence and smashed the earthen earthen wall at once, with her body height similar to that of the Saturn she had created. .

‘If I keep shooting.’

The ant still seemed to be in good shape, but she thought she might win. If only she wouldn’t get caught like she is now and just keep shooting her arrows.

“—.”

As if she really thought so, she lifted her bow again and stood upright with her frown in her eyes, taunting her ant. Seeing no reason to let go of her provocation, the beast ant snapped her sharp jaws at her as if to cut her to pieces at once, then tried to charge her fiercely again.

‘Could it be this time again?’

She struggled with her forelimbs and again drove an arrow into the head of the ant that was trying to block her arrow, then leaped forward again.

Aiming for the lower part of the belly, which has relatively low defense, instead of the hard-shelled head. Her hard, thick ant forelimbs swung around and tried to strike her as she brushed herself, but she neatly dodged the blow by rolling on her ground.

At the same time, I aimed the loaded arrow at the ant’s stomach.

The ant was not able to turn her body properly due to her large size, and in the end, the arrow she shot was lodged in the ant’s belly along with a faint beam of light.

“Job, got it?”

I opened my eyes wide as I watched the arrow pierce the ant’s stomach, causing the wound to squirt bodily fluids. Looking at the monster ant convulsing as if in a seizure, it is certain that this blow was fatal.

The huge monster that has been oppressing us for days finally falls in her hands.

“Uh.”

“–?!”

But at that moment. The ant, which should have stumbled and fell, suddenly moved its legs and started to rush forward.

I stopped thinking at the moment. Her ants ignore her and she runs to the place where the bonsai stands.

“—!!!”

Frightened, she chased after the staggering monster ant and shot arrows at random.

But even as the arrows went through her own body and spilled her intestines, the mad monster ant ignored it all and ran towards her bonsai. As if it was her duty and mission to hurt that tree whether she died or not.

“No.”

I also sighed in a daze.

The monster ant, bigger and faster than her, has already arrived in front of the tree. Then he opened her sharp, hard jaws and brought them to her stem.

Now she has only one chance left. If I can’t defeat it with that single arrow I’ve pulled as far as I can, then the beast ant will achieve its goal.

[The world water has been contaminated by demons]

The moment an arrow crosses the air and gets stuck in the back of the ant’s head.

The beast ant succeeded in biting off the bark with her jaws and making a wound.

***

“Ah…”

It’s a fleeting moment, but time seems to flow a little slowly. In fact, it’s a fine wound that I can’t even see the scratch with my own eyes. But for some, it’s a fatal wound that cuts through the chest.

She dropped her bow and stared blankly at the figure of the ant slowly collapsing with a face that was not even the slightest bit bloody.

The ant, whose breath is almost stopped, stumbles and struggles, and has no more strength to live.

Is that ant satisfied with this? That she threw her own life and attacked the tree?

“…–“

In the end, she showed tears. She wept and gnashed her teeth, then took out her iron pipe and ran to the still-breathing ant and smacked her down.

You can clearly see how angry she is. He was hit by the front leg of the struggling ant and rolled on the ground, but nevertheless ran back and suffocated the beast ant with his own hand.

‘Who the hell are you?’

As she fell down from being hit by the ant’s front leg, her back, which had been covered for so long, was clearly visible under her torn clothes.

I didn’t look for it, but the moment I saw it, I couldn’t look away.

The scars on his white back, as if he had been forcibly scratched to erase something engraved on his back.

Even if you try to ignore it or not pay attention to it, if you keep showing yourself like this, you can’t help but worry about it.

[The young World Tree needs help to contain the pollution]

“What are you asking me to do with this?”

[Magic can be suppressed with pure mana]

In the midst of that, the flowerpot directly asked me for something. It is in the form of an explanation, but in the end it is the same as what you are asking for.

Pure mana. I don’t know what mana is

I wonder if it’s magical power…

“…”

I put her on her stomach and her crying and got her up from her seat.

Then I heard the phone call. To get what I wanted, I had to reach out to someone I thought I would never hear from again.

“What is it? I thought you had stopped dating after you hit me.”

“It is urgent. I need a bottle of refined magic power.”

“A madman? Am I your warehouse?”

Of course, the person who answered the phone treated me harshly, but I, who had something to gain now, did not hang up.

“I don’t see why you need that. The one who doesn’t even do this anymore.”

“Just trying something out.”

“You will get your money right.”

He grumbled, but eventually agreed to my offer. Actually, I knew it would be like this. Maybe it’s because he’s more affectionate than me.

“If you are in a hurry, come tonight.”

“I’ll go right away.”

There is no reason to waste time. I immediately packed my coat and left the house.

“It was originally meant to be for my kids tomorrow.”

“But can I give it away or sell it?”

“At least one is not even noticeable. So what can you do with that one?”

“This seems to be enough for now.”

A small medicine bottle the size of a finger held between index and thumb. It has a small amount of liquid in it.

The mana extracted from the magic stone is diluted in liquid form. By injecting this little by little into your blood vessels frequently, you can continuously increase the amount of magic you possess.

It is almost illegal because it has fatal side effects such as addiction and regurgitation, but anyone who wants to become stronger has no choice but to take it.

“You’re not coming back?”

“No. I barely even graduated from school.”

The man who sold this to me is a stocky middle-aged man who still continues to grumble. The man who goes by the name Kim Dong-chun was once a colleague of mine, but now that’s just a story from a few years ago.
