Spirit (2)

When Harang woke up again, a day or half a day had passed. Harang opened his eyes with difficulty, pulling away his sweat-soaked hair, and the first thing he saw was that this was a building made of some kind of tree.

‘weapon… … .’

Cheongwolheun was located within reach. After checking the condition of the body, it appears that no equipment was touched.

While Harang was frantically checking his condition, the wooden door opened and a cool-looking young man with white hair and blue eyes came in and smiled, showing his teeth.

“Yo~! Woke up? “You sleep for so long!”

“… … Avalanche. “Where am I?”

“Fairy’s nest. This place is like a hospital. Well, there is no separate doctor. “Now, stop talking and just drink this down.”

Avalanche held out a bowl made of wood. There was clear water inside. To quench my thirst, I accepted Avalanche’s touch and drank water slowly. I felt vitality coming back to my body, so I opened my eyes wide.

“Isn’t it fascinating? It’s called fairy dew, and it’s what elves collect that forms on leaves. “It’s similar to a potion, but they say it’s effective when recovering from internal injuries.”

“This is so precious… … “Can I drink it?”

Then the elf woman who followed Avalanche burst out laughing.

Her name is Sadella.

They were one of the few elves who supported Harang’s entry into the village.

“It’s okay, it’s okay! We drink it like water. But the humans said they were going to carry some kind of gold nugget and buy it? “We don’t even like shiny things like that.”

“… … .”

You hate gold.

Although we often encountered them at magic schools, they were a fairly unique race.

“Anyway, how are you feeling? are you okay?”

“… … “I don’t think it’s serious enough to kill me.”

“The way his pupils are slightly dilated, it looks like he’s about to die already? Do you want to take a shower? “I didn’t think anyone would want to touch your body, so I left it alone for now, but the equipment got dirty and you sweated a lot.”

“yes… … .”

“Aren’t you hungry by any chance? You can’t fill your stomach with just dew. Should I bring some simple bread? Oh, you can just wear these clothes here. “It’s the elf’s traditional clothing.”

“… … Thank you.”

Harang helplessly takes the clothes. Avalanche is squatting in front of him, her eyes sparkling.

‘What is the relationship between the two… … ?’

In Sadella’s eyes, the relationship between the two looked more like that of a master and a dog rather than a human and a spirit creature.

“After I wash up, I’m going to go see ‘The Stargazer’. I’m thinking of taking a look at your condition and finding out how to solve it. “I will be there first, so please follow the guide up.”

“… … .”

Harang nodded weakly and headed towards an outdoor spring-like area behind the house. The spring water was mysteriously floating high in the air, so the term ‘public bathhouse’ was a perfect fit.

“ha… … .”

The spring water may have a healing effect, and I felt a little more comfortable while I was inside, but my condition did not completely improve.

After wiping his body with a leaf towel and briefly shaking off the moisture from his head, Harang, wearing traditional elf clothing, frowned slightly, feeling something awkward.

The pure white cloth made from woven tree trunks was long enough to cover the upper knees and was tied with a belt, but it felt rough against the skin and was not comfortable.

Humans placed great importance on the convenience of everyday clothing, but the elves only seemed to use it to cover their bodies.

“Are you not even dressed properly yet?”

“… … .”

While I was adjusting my clothes, I heard a familiar voice and raised my head to see Adeline, the elf boy who had previously opposed Harang’s entry into the village.

Rather than strangely avoiding eye contact, he made eye contact with Harang and opened his eyes round.

“… … Damn, it’s hard for humans to distinguish between males and females.”

As Harang looked at her in silence, Adeline sighed and said.

“I took on the role of guiding you because I made the suggestion that decided your entry. Damn, this is annoying. Like humans… … .”

When he heard that he was a guide, Harang put on his coat and looked at him. He meant to guide me quickly.

“… … “Follow me.”

Adeline went outside with a dissatisfied expression. As Harang followed behind him, her eyes widened.

‘That’s great.’

I only found out now that this place is the middle part of a huge old tree, and in terms of a human city, it appears to be at least 100 stories tall.

Between the trees, tree trunks were tangled like spider webs, and elves walked across them, and there were also elves flying around on birds that were inflated like balloons.

“Now, this is a balloon bird. It is a type of wind spirit, and those with pure energy can ride it and travel around the village comfortably. “You can ride like this.”

Adeline leapt from the tip of the tree and climbed onto the back of the balloon-like bird. Then, looking at her harang, she grinned.

‘Even an elf can’t ride this easily.’

Balloonbirds are quite difficult spirits to deal with, and in human terms, they require a kind of driver’s license. I had to prepare my mana so that the Balloon Bird wouldn’t be surprised and then communicate with the spirit, because the level of difficulty was quite high!

“How do you think it looks easy?”

Adeline deliberately did not mention that fact.

If Harang got hurt, he would be scolded by the village elders, but if he couldn’t get on the balloon bird and crashed, he planned to quickly save the spirit by manipulating the tree trunk with elemental magic.

‘It’s just a surprise, it doesn’t matter… … uh?’

Tooung! Harang easily jumped onto the balloon bird and then knelt down to support her body. It was his first time, so he didn’t feel secure, but the balloon bird didn’t reject him.

“Yeah, it’s really easy.”

“Uh, uh… okay. It’s super easy. “It was easy for me too.”

Even as she said that, Adeline clenched her teeth. This is because he studied communication with spirits for a long time and attempted it for half a year in order to board the Balloon Bird.

“… … “Let’s go quickly.”

The balloon bird rose in the air and headed to the highest point in the village.

After a while of enjoying the cool breeze and floating, I reached the highest point of the tree and had to get off the balloon bird. There was nothing particularly different about the top.

However, it was so high that an untrained person would have likely suffered altitude sickness.

“what? A human is riding a balloon bird… … Adeline, did you teach it?”

There was a small hut at the top of the tree, and the warriors guarding it looked at Harang with questioning expressions.

“No, just…” … “He said he could ride it on his own.”

“what? Does that make sense?”

“… … .”

The warriors looked in disbelief at Adeline’s words, but what could they do if it was true? I actually rode it myself and came all the way up here.

Harang stood there with a blank expression, regardless of whether they would react that way or not. His cheeks were red and he looked like he wasn’t in good condition.

“… … Waiting inside. “Follow me.”

As the warriors took the lead, Harang followed behind them.

-This guy! Where am I!

-Oh my, what a grandmother. Just listen to it once!

-Are you telling me to tell fortunes on humans?

The voices of Avalanche and a woman were heard from inside the cabin.

The warriors knocked on the door regardless.

“He who gazes at the stars, I have brought you a human.”

-Holy shit! Bring them in!

With the woman’s shout, the door opened, revealing the interior of the cabin.

Inside, Avalanche was standing with an awkward expression, scratching the back of her head, and across from her, a woman with her entire body covered with a hood was waving a bear bag.

She looked at Ha-rang in a bad posture with one knee raised, and then looked at him and the crystal ball that was placed in front of her.

“… … Was that a human? “The guy you want to look at?”

“Oh, that’s right?”

“Bring him in and have him sit down.”

When Avalanche winked, Harang walked helplessly and sat down opposite her.

“Hmm, definitely. He seems to have the qualities of a ‘hero’ or something. “This is the first time in my life that I have seen a person with such a pure soul.”

The corners of her mouth drew an arc. It seemed like she had a good idea, but Avalanche was very uneasy about it.

Because the elves who lived for a long time were like snakes and could not be trusted at all.

Nevertheless, the reason why she brought Harang before her was because, as an elf who had lived for a long time, she had deep wisdom and might know a way to solve Harang’s condition.

“Yeah, definitely. You have a terrible cold inside your body. “He must have been so pure that he couldn’t figure out what to do.”

“Oh, that’s right.”

“If you leave it like that, you know what, but it won’t be long before you die. The cold will suck in that damn innate energy and release it to the outside. “If you’re lucky, you’ll turn into a tree and die. If you’re unlucky, you’ll just die.”

“You’re so lucky…” … “Grandma, tell me that now.”

“I was born as a dirty human being and return to nature, so isn’t it natural to be lucky?”

She said as she patted the bear.

“There is a way. “It’s about learning how to handle good energy.”

“Where is the immortal here?”

“So, I guess I’ll have to use the second method. Using the power of the spirit, all chills are expelled and discarded. Well, it might be a bit of a waste for a greedy person, but wouldn’t his life be more important?”

There was no significant change in Harang’s expression. She didn’t seem like she was finding a way to like it.

“… … “What happens if I possess all of this energy?”

“You’re going to die?”

“If you digest everything… … .”

“Huh, does this really show the appearance of a greedy person?”

she said, giggling.

“What are you asking when you know? “Your magic core will achieve explosive growth.”

The way he raised the corners of his mouth at the same time was truly mischievous.

“You will experience a completely different level that you have never seen before. The odds of that happening are one in a thousand, no, not even one in 10,000. “If you try to carry that cold with you, you will definitely die!”

“I know.”

Harang took a deep breath.

Pure white ice crystals sparkled and came out mixed with the breath.

Even though it felt like he was going to die from pain right now, Harang didn’t want to give up even a single ounce of this cold feeling.

“… … “If you digest everything, doesn’t that mean there won’t be any problems?”

The sight of him speaking with a smile on his face while looking like he was dying was almost like a kind of madness.

‘What is this, that human…? … ?’

It was a greed, no, a ‘desire’ so great that it embarrassed even a stargazing woman who had lived for hundreds of years.

“… … Hehe, you are a very interesting person. Yeah, good. Let me tell you a ‘temporary’ solution that will keep you alive until you can control the spirit! “Would you like to listen?”

When Harang quickly nodded, the stargazing woman smiled and said.

“I am making a contract with a spirit so powerful that I can entrust it to you! Oh, right. “There’s a spirit that’s perfect for you!”

‘Damn you old woman.’

Avalanche bit her lip. He may say it as if he just remembered it, but in reality, he may have been aiming for this from the beginning.

“Deep underground in the village, the ‘Spirit of Chaos’ is sealed. When it awakens, the fairy world and the spirit world will fall into great chaos, so we periodically perform sealing ceremonies.”

“… … !!”

“Now, please wait a moment! “Isn’t that why they just sealed it because no one, not even us elves, can handle it?”

“In terms of strength alone, he is a being with an ability comparable to that of the Spirit King. There is no way a human could handle it!”

“Wasn’t that why you were raising Adeline to be the next chieftain?”

Although Adeline was still young, she was extremely hot-tempered and had a strong tendency to be unruly. Nevertheless, the reason he is being put forward as the next chieftain is because he has great potential!

He was raised as the chief in the hope that he would grow into the best spiritist in the future and accept the spirits of chaos, so humans would never be able to accept him.

“So, what happened?”

The woman looking at the stars spoke in a harsh tone. From the beginning, it seemed like the warriors’ opinions were good.

“Human. If you don’t want to do something, I will never force you. Do you want to spit out all the chills? Just say it. I will gladly help you. “If you don’t want to do it, just say you don’t want to do it.”

She spoke clearly.

I’m not forcing it.

Nevertheless, the answer was fixed.

“… … “No, I will.”

Harang spoke with a somewhat excited expression, his cheeks stained red, and his eyes full of desire sparkling.

“Please guide me to the spirit of chaos right away. “I really want to sign a contract.”

The elves looked at each other in bewilderment at the sight of them rushing as if they wanted to do it first before others did.

Guiding a chaotic spirit would never be a good proposition for a human, but how could it not be absurd that he was enjoying it as if he had received some kind of gold as a gift?

‘No, it’s not like someone will take it away if you leave it alone…’ … .’

‘Why are you in such a hurry… … ?’

Regardless of whether Harang reacted that way or not, the stargazing woman stood up, put the bear to her lips, and spoke.

“Hehe, I really like your confidence. Okay, let me take the lead.”

Although she didn’t show it, she was quite surprised to see Harang so confident.

‘Even the great elf spiritists in history could not handle it and all lost their lives. Will a human body be able to withstand the chaos spirit… … .’
