Chapter 148 - One Of The Followers
-Follower of a King of the Forest’s POV-
The breeze felt good again today.
The forest has become much more comfortable.
There are still some places where unpleasant things have yet to disappear but that’s not a problem.

I ran through the forest.
I’ve been trapped in the dark for so long but now, I’m free.
The magic of the world tree seeps into my body.
….it is not the same magical power from the world tree but it feels better.
It feels comfortable.

Hnn?
What the heck was that?
People again?
-0-
….they are small.
And there are so many of them.

Even so, if you do something against the forest, I won’t forgive you.
Grrrr…oh?
These little guys are wrapped with the magic of the world tree, aren’t they?
….does that mean that I can’t attack them?
-0-
Ah, they cried.
I didn’t know, I’m sorry.

Guuuuu….
What’s that noise?
You’re hungry….like I care.

They were small…I’m curious….the magical power of the world tree….
I wonder if I should help them.
The world tree is protecting them after all.

It also looks like they were hungry.
Food…should I go hunt down some demon beasts?
-0-
….I’ll ask my friends

….I told you so, right?
So, should I go hunt some demon beasts?
I can’t?
We still have to cook meat?
….but it tastes better raw, you know?
-0-
This is hard.

How about nuts?
Like that one?
….poisonous?
The nuts in that place are okay?
Fine, I’ll go there.

…ah, they did.
I guess they’re really hungry

Hnn?
What are we gonna do?
Ah, with these little guys?
….right, what should we do?
-0-
Lead them out of the forest?
Yeah, that’s right.
We should lead them out of the forest.
Let’s do it.
-0-
Do we have enough food?
….No?
Let me get more.

Ah, presence of people.
They are…traveling in a group.
Let’s take a look.

If it’s that group, the little ones should be okay, right?
Let’s take a closer look.
Right.

We managed to let them meet the little ones.
I’m currently wondering, what could I have done if they attacked?
Maa, there’s no point in thinking.

….what?
I’m not crying!
Fuh!
