Flight was a relatively simple spell that only required a small amount of affinity for wind mana. Hence, Alice had naturally learned it during this period.
After all, the ability to fly could be incredibly useful in many places. Alice no longer lacked combat methods now, so other than the times when she was busy learning taboos, she would spend the rest of her time learning support magic.
However, the Gryffin Kingdom placed restrictions on magic such as Flight, and many places had mana alarms that would go off when residents used Flight. Otherwise, it would create a lot of disturbances if everyone was flying about in the air.
Of course, the restrictions were only effective in the Gryffin Kingdom’s cities. The elven village obviously didn’t have such restrictions in place.
Firstly, the elven population was rather small, so it wouldn’t create a chaotic situation even if every elf decided to use Flight simultaneously.
Secondly, the laws the elves followed remained largely unchanged over the years due to the elves’ resistance toward change. So, no new laws against flight magic were implemented, and Alice could use Flight without worrying about triggering any alarms. There also wouldn’t be any police coming over to warn her.
Meanwhile, after reaching a high altitude, Alice cast Temperature Regulation and Oxygen Production to maintain her body temperature and satisfy her breathing requirements. She had also extended a hand into her pouch and randomly pulled out a pair of white panties to give her a boost to her mana pool.
Although Alice possessed similar talents as the Hero, she had only started learning magic for a month. So, while the size of her mana pool might have surpassed most high schoolers her age, the difference wasn’t significant.
Meanwhile, Flight was a spell that consumed a lot of mana to maintain, probably because it had to fight against gravity. Hence, by the time Alice reached the clouds, her mana pool was already close to depleting, and she had no choice but to refill it.
Although the burst of white light that came from the panties was quite blinding, Alice had already flown quite some distance from the ground. So, the light wouldn’t attract any attention from the elven village. Meanwhile, the addition of several thousand points in her Mana stat instantly flooded Alice’s body with a frightening amount of mana. With this much mana, Alice could fly for several days without rest.
The Tree of Nature was incredibly large. While the size of its tree trunk might seem small in proportion to its towering height, the tree trunk still occupied half of the elven village. So, Alice had to fly around the treetop for some time before she finally found a fruit that still looked green and unripe.
The fruit grew on an incredibly large tree branch. How big exactly was this branch? When Alice landed on the branch, she could plant both her feet down and stand steadily on it.
One could say that the thickness of this branch was roughly similar to the tree trunk of the average large tree. Alice wouldn’t have to worry about breaking it at all when she stood on it.
Meanwhile, growing on this large tree branch was a green and spherical fruit. The fruit wasn’t particularly large compared to the branch it grew on, and it was roughly the size of an average watermelon in Alice’s memories.
So, this is the Tree of Nature’s fruit? For such a large tree, its fruit is surprisingly small. I thought the fruit would be at least as big as a person, Alice thought as she crouched down to look at the green fruit. She had originally wanted to sit down on the branch, but the presence of clouds had caused the branch’s surface to become a little wet. So, between straining her leg muscles and getting her panties wet, she chose the former.
Afterward, Alice tapped the fruit with her knuckles and found it was rather solid, just like Lalu mentioned. Although she couldn’t tell how hard it was exactly, judging by the feedback she got through her knuckles, it’d probably be impossible for the average person to bite into it.
Let’s see what abilities you have.
Although Alice was tempted to pluck the fruit and see how it disappeared out of thin air, the Seed of Nature was an important treasure for the elves. After picking up a free Seed of Nature and having the demons threaten the elves, Alice already felt plenty guilty to the elves. God would probably punish her if she carried out any more injustice against the elves.
…Or maybe not, since God was on her side.
Afterward, Alice reached out and held the watermelon-sized fruit with both hands. Although she didn’t pluck the fruit from the branch, it didn’t matter. So long as it didn’t resist and she could hold it with both hands, her right hand would still recognize the fruit as a weapon.
Sure enough, the fruit’s weapon information promptly appeared in Alice’s mind.
…
[Weapon: Fruit of God]
[Quality: Artifact]
[Effect: Mind +3000, Control +8000, Mana +8000]
[Additional Effect:
God’s Appreciation (Passive Skill. You are a delicacy approved by God. Your body will become very tasty);
God’s Reach (Passive Skill. You will be transported to the cabinet in God’s space the instant you separate from the Tree of Nature’s branch);
Natural Cultivation (Passive. Cultivate a Seed of Nature in your body in a cycle of one thousand years);
Nature’s Praise (Active Skill. Designate up to five targets and heal them back to their best condition within the last year. Targets who have already received Nature’s Praise once cannot receive it a second time.)]
…
With her right hand still in contact with the Fruit of God, Alice face-palmed herself with her left hand. She had previously wondered why this fruit would vanish as soon as it left its branch and leave behind only its seed. It turned out that it was simply because the Loli Goddess wanted to eat it. If that were the case, then everything made sense. A God indeed had the power to make something vanish without the elves’ notice.
Of course, other than being delicious, the Fruit of God also had a rather special ability called “Nature’s Praise.” It was an active skill that allowed the user’s targets to recover to their best condition within the past year.
Although every person could only receive Nature’s Praise once in their life, it was still an incredibly powerful recovery skill. Judging by the skill’s description, one could even help a person with a fatal injury achieve a full recovery.
Unfortunately, despite having lived beside the Tree of Nature for more than ten thousand years, the elves never got the chance to research the Fruit of God’s abilities since the Loli Goddess had snatched everything away. Moreover, God evidently didn’t need a recovery skill such as Nature’s Praise, so Alice guessed that the Loli Goddess had taken these fruits away solely for the sake of eating them.

God’s Appreciation… Does this mean my body has also become tasty now?
Looking at the passive skill named God’s Appreciation, Alice hesitated for a moment before she licked her arm. Then, she discovered that…goddamn she was tasty.
But if this fruit is disappearing simply because God likes it…
After discovering that the fruit’s disappearance was God’s doing and recalling that she could communicate with God, Alice couldn’t help but fall into thought.
There might be some leftover fruits in the Loli Goddess’s room?
