I Reincarnated as a Teacher of the Heroine

Episode 187 – The Spirit King of Trees

Galahad dodged my fist and shouted in an annoyed voice.

“What the hell are you doing, a wizard coming into close combat!”

I knew that it would only be a war of attrition if I threw magic from a distance like this, so I had to force myself to approach. Of course, I had to warn the arm that Agravein wielded until the end. Because even one hit with that would be the end.

Of course, by borrowing old man Tristan’s technique to Armadura’s power, he was literally responding with an iron fist. However, this bastard named Agravain did not even get scratched no matter how much he was beaten. Besides, when I tried to launch a big technique by aiming for that point, this little Galahad bastard shouted out specific coordinates and gave instructions, and even avoided that.

“Kurrureu…!!!”

I wondered if continuing this fight would do any damage. Rather, the more I hit, the more my magic melted away, and the more I hit that bastard, the more lively he got. Are you a real masochist?

“Agravain! 12 63 44 02! Ask!”

It’s not some kind of a dog, but I’ve mainly used biting and scratching methods. You’re a perverted masochist you can’t really use to get excited about being treated like a dog by that Mesgaki called Galahad.

And this situation was the same for others. Camellia also tried to subdue it by slashing Galahad separately, but she was struggling with Agravain’s beast-like movement, which avoided the movement when she heard the instructions.

“It’s like the movement of a wild beast. Who the hell is that guy?”

Even as Camellia, who had dealt with many powerful opponents, she asked during the fight whether she had never seen a guy like that before.

“My partner who took over for my sister while she was away.”

You said you took my place for a while…?

“Sister, when you were young, did you wear bandages all over your body and carry your little sister…?”

“It can’t be!”

Or not. I don’t know why you’re angry. Is it, after all, the fate of a demon to be angry with a severe person?

“…Are you two talking nonsense?”

“No, I just forgot about that… what the heck is that move? It’s not like I’m dodging right away, I’m shouting out instructions, and then dodging the attack right before it touches me… There’s no way that’s possible.”

“That’s right. Right now I’m using my legs to listen and see… Agravain is using his nerves and energy to move and listen.”

No, what the fuck, is it even possible to allocate skill points between sight, hearing and movement?

“Huh, it seems that the archmage of that tribe doesn’t understand? It’s not too much. But hmm… Shall I explain it this way? Just like when you taste or smell something you’re more sensitive to when you cover your eyes. Those who have lost their sight. It’s a similar principle to how your tactile sense becomes more sensitive.”

“So when the two of you are together, you totally catch movement or parry the slightest movement, and the bandaged pervert over there is in charge of attacking and dodging, so that’s it.”

It’s not like he’s suffering… It reminded me of a story about a crippled man and a blind man in a book. Well, since the two of them were in a difficult situation together, the story was that the blind played the role of the legs and the crippled played the role of the eyes. So, the end of the story…

“I think I know roughly. The way to kill you guys.”

“what…”

“Appear, spear of death that kills even gods.”

It was a spear created using the spirit king’s magic. Its strength was not comparable to that of ordinary steel. I grabbed the spear and tried to stab Old Galahad in the eye as if I was going to slam it down.

“Agravain 33 47 22 04. Damage.”

He twisted his body like a ghost and moved so that Galahad would not be stabbed by the spear.

“Thank you kid.”

This is how the story of the crippled and the blind ended. The crippled even ate the blind man’s food, so the blind man grew thinner and thinner and the crippled gained more and more weight. In the end, while crossing the ditch, the weakened blind man fell and they both drowned.

Well, that didn’t mean that I was going to shove food into the Agravain bastard right now. It just meant that the problem was that the two of them depended on a pair of legs. No matter how good your leg is, you can’t move properly if you get hurt.

I pretended to stab Galahad and stabbed him in the thigh.

“Kurururrr!”

The moan of Agravain was like that of an animal. Camellia’s younger sister seems to have a preference for men like real beasts.

“Ha… you’re making the worst move.”

I don’t know what bullshit it is. I sealed his mobility like this, but it’s the guys who are in trouble, not me. No matter how deeply you stabbed it, it smelled so bloody…

“Cool!”

Not only me, but also Camellia spurted blood.

What? I tried my best to keep the miasma from spewing out, and the poison I had just been poisoned with couldn’t have taken effect this quickly.

“You guys are in charge of Agravain’s blood. Everything in Agravain from head to toe is deadly poison. Flesh, bodily fluids, blood, bones, fingernails, claws, and exhaled breath are all deadly poison. Merely being near a rabbit is deadly. A small animal like that could die in a minute.”

Ah, somehow, he didn’t look nervous at all even when he was in close combat, so that’s why.

Damn, I got poisoned and my leg came loose.

“Agravain 33 45 24 01. Catch and kill.”

Damn, it would be the end if I got caught directly by a hand that spews poison like that… My body didn’t fucking move. Going back like this…

—–

Agravain’s savage hand was just before grabbing Werner’s face. Lorsha, Airi, and Camellia were all surprised and ran to stop it, but it was too late. The moment that hand caught Werner’s face and tried to inject miasma directly, the tree roots that rose from the ground shook Agravain’s hand.

“Kurrr…?”

“Why is the tree root suddenly…”

And what appeared was the spirit king of the trees in the form of a young elf girl.

“You insignificant children, in my garden, you are blowing poisonous air, scattering lightning, and setting fires, they are so similar that I can’t stand it. isn’t it?”

Everyone present could feel it. The fact that that girl is stronger than anyone in this room. Among the spirit kings, she who controls the tree, which is life itself, was at least the strongest among the beings called spirits.

Of course, he bit his lip at Agravain and Galahad, who came to kill her as well.

“That’s the strongest tree spirit king… The reason why he came here to stop the fight… did he come to kill us?”

“No, I don’t care at all that you came to kill me, to protect me.”

Everyone was dumbfounded by the words, so they were speechless. Neither the people and animals on the side to kill nor the people on the side to protect could accept the current situation.

“My only goal is to drink the liquor I brewed for today and take a quiet nap. You two are just noisy, and I’ve only come to tell you to go out of the woods and fight…”

Then Galahad expressed his doubts.

“But why did you stop our ag? You wouldn’t mind if someone died? No, wouldn’t it be better if there were fewer people?”

“Well, if that little guy dies in my garden, it’s going to be annoying. Well, it’s just annoying, so I don’t want to risk my life. Get out of my forest right now.”

“… If I was going to listen to you asking like that, you wouldn’t have come, right?”

“Heh… Half-elf baby. It seems you’re misunderstanding something. I’m not asking for a favor. Would I ask you guys for something like that? I…”

With those words, the trees in the forest began to grow rapidly. Trees that had grown two or three times blocked the sun, and their mighty roots sprouted from the ground.

The forest they were in, no, the vegetation of the entire continent was no different from her limbs.

“I was giving orders with nice words, a little girl who would die with just one gesture.”

The tree spirit king, who was checking the faces of the party, confirmed Airi’s face and spoke to her using telepathy.

[Oh, isn’t this the little boy that my primordial mother made a pact with me before reversing time? You survived well with that insignificant skill. I didn’t even know it came because my skills were so weak.]

Faced with the Spirit King, whom she had contracted with before returning, Airi urgently asked her for help.

[Peresa! help me right now Make a contract with you again and help me defeat them.]

Airi, who even knew her real name, had no doubt that she would help her.

[Oh, so please lend me your strength by signing a contract with you again. It seems you are talking about that.]

[Yes, so make a contract quickly…]

[I hate you, spoiled and ignorant kid.]
