Chapter 409: The World Tree Labyrinth

—–

Emeraldine explained things with her extensive knowledge from her Elven Family, which has supposedly descended from Alfheim and moved here for… I don't know. I don't have any idea why but her mother was a Royal Guard, so she was probably a Knight, meaning a Noble. I guess she was tired of the long-eared arrogant bastards and wanted herself a hot human daddy instead that loved her and had a kind heart. Emeraldine is half human and half elf for that reason.

"My mother used to tell me tales about the World Tree." Emeraldine said. "It is an enormous tree that some speculate brought the world to life, and others say that the gods planted the tree. It is always a mystery. However, one of the factual truths is that a Legendary Country is there, where many people gather, only the strongest Adventurers from all around the world, renowned heroes of their continents gather there, to conquer one of the greatest Dungeons in the world, the World Tree Labyrinth."

"World Tree Labyrinth?" Partner asked.

"It is said that it was constructed by the gods as the ultimate trial for the heroes of the world, it is filled with great challenges and several different biomes, and leads to the secrets of the world and, at the top of the tree, it is said that there is a gate that leads to the Realm of the Gods." Emeraldine smiled. "We are all fairly strong. Maybe one day we could go take a visit, when things calm down a bit."

"We are surely going!" I said. "However, you said something about the Lesser Yggdrasil Tree, right?"

"Ah yeah, the branch I used was from a Lesser Yggdrasil Tree… You see, every one thousand years, the Yggdrasil Tree begins to flourish all over, it is called the World's Spring Festival, these flowers let go of their enormous seed-like pollen into the world, and over time they fall around the world, becoming Lesser Yggdrasil Trees. It is said there are a few all around the world." Said Emeraldine.

"Even in here?!" I asked.

"Yeah, there is one in the Village where I came from, which protects the people inside with its Spiritual Barrier naturally created." Said Emeraldine. "Though the last years, it has grown weaker, and the monsters seemed strangely attracted to the spiritual energies of the tree, constantly attempting to get into the roots… Ah, well, that'll be for another day I guess."

"I see…" I sighed. "I wonder if I could make a tree myself… An Yggdrasil Tree!" I said while thinking.

"That would be incredible, but I don't know if you really should…" Said Emeraldine. "Also we lack a Seed Pollen, without it there's just no way."

"The branch… do you have more? Maybe with Agriculture we could grow a tree out of it!" I said.

"No, that was the only branch I had…" Emeraldine sighed. "Sorry."

"Ah well, whatever. All is fine, don't worry about it." I said while shrugging.

"Anyways, do you girls liked your gifts?" I asked.

"I've got two already, they're pretty awesome as it is!" Partner said happily.

"Yeah, I think I am already more than happy." Emeraldine said with a smile, quickly approaching me. "How about I repay you in bed?"

"Ah…"

Partner quickly got closer to me, as she looked at me with a coquettish smile.

"Yeah, that's a good idea, Emeraldine."

"W-Wait a bit… We are still working on Alchemy and stuff!"

"There's no better time!"

"Yeah, don't worry and relax, we'll take it from here."

And like that, I ended being princess carried back to bed by Partner and done naughty things… Which I enjoyed thoroughly.

Later, after we took a warm bath to relax after that intense activity, we resumed Alchemy. Emeraldine had gone back to her usual self as she analyzed the bombs we made.

"This looks wonderful, we have over exceeded ourselves today. This is probably as strong as a powerful Fire Attribute Spell at Level 10…" She said.

"At level 10?! That much?" Partner asked.

"Yeah, Spells are like Skills, the higher the level the stronger they are. Level 10 is very strong, but much like Skills, Spells can awaken and reach higher levels of power." Said Emeraldine. "Level 10 is still amazing, it could even hurt A Rank Monsters, even more if we throw all four of them at once."

"We could had have it way easier against the Ant Queen if we had these bombs as backup…" I sighed.

"Well yeah." Emeraldine admitted it. "Especially because that monster resisted your elements. It would be nice to have backup bombs to throw of other elements at all times. Your Inventory gives you the advantage of being able to store as much as you want and have everything available at hand too."

"Yeah, can we make more bombs now?" I wondered.

"We can use similar items to make Lightning Bombs now." Said Emeraldine. "I think even… Wind, Ice, and Earth Bombs, but the thing is, the materials we have are okay, but they could be better."

"Well the bombs are going to explode and disappear anyways so it doesn't matter much, right?" Partner asked.

"And that's where you're wrong!" Emeraldine smiled. "As long as we've got enough materials, we can create the perfect bombs and then use Maria's special Alchemy Book to register them there, so even if later on we have low quality materials, the same item will be produced at its registered quality or higher. Right? Is that how it works?"

"Y-Yeah! I think so?" I said, thinking about it.

"I heard it has an empty slot with each Skill Level, right? Does it gain Skill Proficiency through the creation of alchemy items?" She asked.

"Hmm… Oh, yeah! It gained Skill Proficiency alongside Alchemy." I said with a nod. "Each of those bombs gave 500 Skill Proficiency?! Eh, wait a second it already leveled up to level 2…" I said in surprise, looking at the Skill.

"Really?" Emeraldine wondered. "Those bombs take a lot of effort to make, but we could mass produce some easy items after that… The more Skill Proficiency you get, the faster it'll level up and the more slots you'll have for Instant Creation. We can really monopolize in these slots and make the best items possible to Instant Create!"
