Late. Tamer's day.

I installed the hatchery in the barn and now I wonder if I've done everything I have to do.

Well, I'm finally going to move on to solving the mystery. I'll take the mysterious key I got from garbage collection and take a look.

"Even if they say it's a key. If you don't know where it is, you can't even use it."

No, you had one place. Locked iron door that was under the bridge. Maybe it's the key over there. I guess we both have something in common that we discovered in our labor quest, and it's not entirely unlikely?

"That won't be convenient, but let's just give it a try"

It's no use trying.

If that's what you decide, let's go quickly. The time is night, but it's rather discreet and just right. There are street lights because it's all over the city, and if you have a map, you'll be able to get to the front of the door fine. I go down to the waterway with Kosokoso while worrying about people for once. And I got under the bridge so as not to sound as loud as possible.

"You don't see it at all at night. Well, it's gotta be around here somewhere."

You just don't see the keyhole at all. I'll look for the keyhole by hand and try to stick the key in.

Gacha kacha.

"I knew it wouldn't work?

Katcha - Gachan.

"Lies, you know. It's open."

In front of me, the door opened slowly, along with the sound of a geek.

"Can I come in?

I sincerely regretted coming at night. It was super creepy. Even ghosts have such an atmosphere.

"Ugh, why don't you go"

For once, specify the wound medicine for the shortcut. Run back as soon as the monster is out. If anyone's strong enough to die in one blow, we'll have to give up.

"Excuse me."

Beyond the door was a downstairs staircase. I step in slowly. The walls are equipped with things like lamps at equal intervals, which you can manage to look over.

Would it have gone down about 30 steps? Beyond that was a small room.

"Is there still a way?"

Moving on, the aisle was divided into two strands. Which way to go.

In the meantime, I went left. Then it's down the stairs from the middle. I can't see ahead, I'm so scared. Um, do you want to turn back?

Now I'll go to the right. After a long passage that lasted a while, there was another door ahead. I opened it for now and it opened softly with little resistance.

"Seriously, it's not a boss room or anything, is it?

Peek softly and check inside before entering. It was a strange room there. The first thing in my eye is the huge roots, each one of which is as thick as a drum can. The roots of the tree are intertwined and cover about half the room. And let it be surrounded by its roots, and things like altars were seated.

"Looks like you don't have a boss."

Fear, step in. I could tell when I went in, but there was a lot of clear air there and it didn't have a very monster coming out.

"I wonder what this altar is?

Event smell is pumping.

"I think these big roots are the roots of the waterfront tree up there."

"Exactly."

"Wow! So, who is it?

"Right here, adventurer."

Responding to my call was a beauty in the light, fluttering from the altar. Emerald green hair is mysterious.

"Uh, who?

"I am the Spirit of the Great Tree"

Speaking of which, in the setup of the game, the Waterfront Tree was a holy tree inhabited by spirits. So, this guy? is the Spirit of the Great Tree of the Water?

I learned a light excitement and accidentally took a shot of Suksho. Yeah, let's take a video too. It's a vulgar thing to have the Spirit in front of you, but you might be able to buy it for Alyssa.

The story was that the fact that we're shooting a video won't tell NPC, but it seems true. There was no particular change in the Spirit.

"Um, I'm sorry I got into this on my own"

"It's good. Once upon a time, anyone came to this altar and left an offering behind."

"Oh, really?"

"Instead I blessed and had a good relationship that we would need from each other"

Spirit speaking nostalgic. But soon I got a sad face.

"But because there was a fool who tried to harm me, I asked the upper echelons of the Adventurer Guild to put a door on it. To restrict those who enter."

"Oh, well, why don't I go in first?

"If you get the keys on your own, and you're the one who arrived, it's fine. Because the keys are untouchable to the wicked."

"Well, this was such an amazing key."

"They say it was created by the power of the Magic Guide. That door is similarly magical."

Is that the kind of setting?

"If I make an offering, can you give me a blessing?

"Yes, by offering, though the blessings you give are different"

I don't know what to do, I want the Spirit blessing. You just don't have a lot of stuff, do you?

"Oh, yeah. Can you make an offering every day?

"I can only descend on 'Tree Day' every week"

I see, only to the Spirit of the tree, only to appear on the day of the tree? For this reason, the week in this world is the same as in real life, with seven Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday. 1/1 was the day of the day, so today 1/5 is Thursday. In other words, it is a tree day. No, you were lucky for me. Plus, it was pretty critical. In about an hour, the day of the week will change.

"And once you are blessed, you will not be blessed until eight weeks later"

"Really?"

Well, then, I guess I might not be able to offer something weird in an experiment. But the next time the Spirit descends is a week from now. I don't have time to go back and get something that's going to be your offering.

"Anything?

What makes it a good offering? Price, rarity or rank. What would make a tree spirit happy to receive in the first place?

I thought about it for a while and remembered. Yeah, there's some fancy fertilizer I just bought. Wouldn't this satisfy the tree spirits, too?

"Can I offer you this or something?

"This is good stuff. Thank you for your concern. Instead, let us bless you. Have this."

It wasn't what I thought it would be. I was hoping for skills, stats, and an awkward title. It was an item. Cherry fruit.

Name: Water Tree Fruit

Rarity: 3 Quality: 3 Stars

Effect: Restores user hunger by 15%. Increase the user's state abnormal resistance by 1 hour. Cooling time 5 minutes.

No, I'll correct it. Rarity 3? It's awesome at the beginning - I got good stuff. Considering the rarity of the luxury fertilizer was 2, it would have ranked up 1.

"Thank you"

"May you have good luck"

The Spirit looked satisfied and disappeared.

"The Spirit Altar of the Aquatic Great Tree has been specially liberated. The first player reached will be awarded the title" Protecting the Spirit of the Great Tree "

"Also as a bonus to Mr. Youto, I present fire crystals, water crystals, earth crystals and wind crystals"

No, I got the title too. And a unique title. And even more rare items! Thank you, Spirit!

Title: Protecting the Spirit of the Great Tree

Effect: Win 5000G prize money. Earn 4 bonus points. Increases damage and decreases damage when fighting tree and spiritual monsters

Isn't this strong? With this, I might even be able to fight the poor. The target is limited, though.

"Let's give this to Orto."

Fruit of waterfront trees. If we could grow it in the field... it wouldn't suck, would it? Maybe we can get rich. Before you bring it to Orto, would you like to ask Mr. Alyssa what he knows about it?

"How much is it worth? It's a rarity of 3, and it doesn't mean it's under 2000G of high-end fertilizer."

I hope the store is still open. Time's up, and let's hurry.
