Episode 39. Help me
Ethan clenched his fists.
I knew that the ingredients would make a good potion. But I never thought that I would make an S-rank one.
-You have achieved the achievement!
– You have earned likes by achieving the [S-Rank Creator] achievement.
– Got ‘5’ likes!
“And this was the real Recard liquid?”
Ethan was surprised.
Even though Ethan had seen most of the materials, it was his first time seeing the real Recard liquid.
Recard is a medicinal herb called the flower that never withers, and just like its name suggests, unlike other flowers, it never withers throughout its life.
Its vitality was so great that it could be said to have infinite lifespan as long as it was not broken.
This record was the real record that lived for 200 years and became real liquid.
‘That’s why I had no choice but to buy it at a high price.’
It seemed like it wasn’t pure recorda essence but a mixture of several things.
Ethan drank the Recard decoction as is.
-Intense energy spreads throughout your body!
– Stamina increases significantly!
-You have gained new characteristics by taking the Recard essence!
– Gained the [Unfading Stamina] trait.
-[Unfading Stamina]
If your health falls below 10%, your health will be fully restored immediately. [Cooldown: 24h]
“I didn’t know that the essence of the recorder had such an effect… … .”
As it is a difficult material to obtain, the effect is truly amazing.
Perhaps Heo Jun’s herbal medicine making technique may have pushed the effectiveness of the essence to its limit.
But whatever it was, Ethan had gained an extra life.
-Your chances of survival increase.
It’s scary to think that the chances of survival have also increased.
“I can take a little more risk.”
Now that I have gained undiminished stamina, I feel like I can move a little more boldly.
Ethan changed direction from where he originally intended to go.
“Let’s start from the temple of the moon goddess.”
* * *
Whittenburg.
It was located in the western part of the County of Wickers, on the border of the kingdom.
The one who rules this place is Count Horn, and he has a rather rough personality, so he has the nickname of Berserker.
Ethan was in the great forest near Whittenburg.
To be exact, it was a place called the Fairy Forest, located slightly to the side of the Great Forest.
“This is the Fairy Forest. As I said, you must never act recklessly here. This is where the fairies live.”
Dark Forest. Yeerika, who came with Ethan, opened her eyes wide and looked around at the forest keeper’s explanation.
“If there was a place like this, I would have hidden here. It looks much better than the Dark Forest.”
She had fled into the dark forest to escape her pursuers.
“Even if I ran away here, that damn beast would have come looking for me.”
Ethan hired a forester in Whittenburg.
It was because it was easier to get to the desired location if there was a forest ranger who was good at finding the way.
Ethan, who had been walking along the forest keeper for a while, was impressed.
‘Something’s different. There should be a temple here, but there’s no temple.’
This place was clearly different from the place he knew.
At that time, it was called the Fairy Forest, but it was not a forest but ruins.
There were no forests, no fairies. There were only ruins near the desert.
But in this fairy forest, the temple was not visible even in the location I remembered.
“Did you find what you were looking for? I brought you to the right place.”
The forester spoke with confidence.
He said he was a professional forester who had been visiting this forest for 20 years.
He kept bragging all the way here, saying that he had been recognized by the fairies and chosen as the forest keeper.
“It was an excellent choice to come to me.”
“But this doesn’t seem to be the right place, Forester. Look at Ethan’s expression. It’s as if what you’re looking for should be here, but it’s not there.”
“That can’t be true. I led you to the right place.”
“This is the right place. But something feels strange.”
Ethan looked around the forest.
The state of the forest was strangely strange.
At Ethan’s appearance, the forest keeper nodded in understanding and opened his mouth.
“Does it smell weird? It wasn’t like this before, but lately, something has gone wrong and it’s been giving off a bad smell. It used to have a calming scent.”
“I think I know why it’s strange.”
Ethan drew his sword.
Then the surprised forester shouted.
I warned you like that before you came in!
“Ahhh! Ah, no!”
However, Ethan was so frightened by the forester’s words that he cut down the tree with his claw sword. Then, purple gas and a foul smell came out of the tree.
“Huh? What, what are you doing!”
The forester looked at Ethan in confusion.
“The tree is rotten, forester. It’s not just rotten, it’s poisoned.”
“Oh, addiction? That can’t be right? And more than that!”
The forester looked around in fear.
“This will incur the wrath of the fairies! You must run away!”
The forester clicked his tongue.
Before I could even run away, the forest around me began to tremble.
Yeerika stood in front of Ethan, ready to respond quickly if anything happened.
Green, red, and blue lights appeared around me, swirling around, and then they started to attack me with great force.
Yeerika flicked her fingers and blocked the light.
“Your skills have improved?”
“It will increase even more tomorrow. It will increase even more the day after tomorrow.”
Yereka smiled at Ethan.
Now that I was finally able to properly act as an escort, I felt pretty good.
“Forest Keeper!”
“Forester! I trusted you and gave you permission to pass through the forest!”
“But the human you brought cut down the tree!”
“All the powers we gave you will be revoked!”
“And that human!”
“You will receive our punishment!”
The forest ranger’s expression hardened.
“I’m sorry, fairies! Ha, but I didn’t have time to stop you… … .”
“No excuses needed.”
“It’s too late. Our tree will not return.”
The forester looked despairing.
But Ethan was calm.
The fairies scolded the forester and glared at Ethan.
Then Ethan picked up the Frost Sword.
“If you cut down a rotten tree, should I thank you?”
As Ethan said that, the fairies that were about to attack stopped moving.
The forest ranger was so surprised by the sight that he fell to the ground on his butt. Then he looked back and forth between Ethan and Yeerika, then opened his mouth wide.
“Hey, the fairies have stopped attacking.”
Despite their name, the fairies were cruel. They especially hated humans who broke the rules they had created.
I’ve heard many stories of people who lived as forest rangers and then died after teasing fairies.
But the fairy isn’t attacking.
“how did you know?”
“Humans don’t know?”
“Humans wouldn’t be able to know?”
The fairies began to speak, glowing, and looked at Ethan with interest.
The forest was now in a state of poisoning and rotting. The smell, and the stench it gave off when it was just cut, were obvious signs of the forest’s rot.
Besides, I’ve seen forests in this state several times.
‘The fallen elves of the forest also set traps like this in their own forest.’
Unlike elves who value the forest, fallen elves do not deify the forest.
‘If the trees in the forest rot, the forest dies. Then the fairies and elves cannot live either.’
This fairy forest is dying.
‘When I played, the forest was already dead, but for some reason, there are forests and fairies now.’
It was called the Fairy Forest in name only, but it was a place that was almost in ruins like a ruined city.
Even then, it was a place I would never have come if there had been no hidden items.
That hidden item was the one you could get at the temple of the moon goddess.
‘Did someone do this on purpose?’
A piece of information suddenly popped into Ethan’s head.
‘That’s it.’
“I can tell just by smelling it. This forest is rotten. If we leave it like this, we will all die. The forest and you.”
The fairies were flying around, glowing. It seemed like they already knew.
Then Ethan opened his mouth slightly.
“I can help you.”
Wing-wing-.
The fairies’ movements became faster as if they were thinking about something.
“how?”
“How can I help you?”
“You just have to decipher it. Luckily, I have the deciphering skills.”
“Have you seen it in a book?”
Ethan nodded at Yereka’s words. This was true.
“Of course I saw it in a book.”
Yeorika shook her head in confident nod.
I guess it’s because I’ve seen so many new things.
The troubled fairies spoke to Ethan.
“then.”
“Please help us.”
“Help our queen.”
* * *
The largest tree in the Fairy Forest.
In that big tree was the home of the fairies.
“you.”
“Are you crazy? You’re bringing a human here?”
“This is our home! If our home’s location is discovered, greedy humans will definitely come here!”
“Besides, the forest is sick. Our queen is sick.”
“Stupid fairy.”
The fairies in the big tree started fighting the fairies that brought Ethan and his party.
Every time a loud noise was made, it lit up in a variety of colors, making it look like a festival was taking place.
“Are you sure you’re fighting? It looks like a festival is going on.”
It seemed like Yerichado had the same thoughts as Ethan.
“We have to enjoy it. But it’s still fun for the eyes.”
“You’re being positive. I tried blocking a fairy attack earlier, and it didn’t seem like they were really trying to kill us. If the fairies attack properly, we might have to run away.”
“Is it possible to run away?”
“Yes, that’s about it. Shall I prove to you that you chose me well as your escort?”
“Then let’s set a signal. The signal to run away, um, if you show your teeth like this and laugh, you’ll run away with me right away. Got it?”
“I checked.”
While Yeorika and Ethan were talking, the conversation among the fairies was also becoming more heated.
“You guys are the fools.”
“The Queen is dying! The forest is rotting! We can’t solve this situation on our own!”
“That man immediately realized that the forest was dying and rotting. He might have a way.”
“This idiot! What if that human is the one who poisoned this forest!”
“You know that’s not true. It was a different person.”
“A human in a black robe.”
“You know that too.”
“but!”
“How long are you going to keep fighting?”
When Ethan intervened in the elves’ fight, the forester tried to stop him.
“Ethan, you can’t do that!”
The fairies in the big tree came closer to Ethan as if threatening him. Then they emitted an even stronger light.
The forester thought it was coming.
Fairies also have different powers that they can use depending on the number of years they have lived and the powers they possess.
The fairy in front of Ethan was an Elder Fairy, one of the fairies who had lived for a long time and possessed great power.
For a moment, a bright light shot out and entered Ethan’s mouth.
“Oh my God, Lady Yeorika! Apologize to that Elder Fairy right now… …!”
Suddenly, the light entered Ethan’s mouth, and Yeorika also seemed confused.
gulp-.
But Ethan, who had swallowed the light, was very calm.
“From now on, you will have no choice but to follow my orders.”
Then Ethan’s eyes lit up.
-Status abnormality: Obedience has been applied.
-Strength is increased.
– Resistance to obedience increases.
“Kneel down.”
But Ethan didn’t budge.
“Uh, how… … .”
Everyone was surprised to see Ethan, who they thought would just kneel down, be fine. The fairies were especially surprised because they knew how strong that power was.
The light glowed and showed their emotions clearly.
You could even hear the flapping of wings.
The forest keeper who had been asking Yeorika to mediate also stopped in his tracks.
As I said before, what on earth is this person?
I really wondered if he was a real person.
“I came to help you.”
Ethan pulled out his Frost Sword.
“It’s not worth helping.”
‘There is no need to go out weakly.’
Ethan was the one taking the lead here.
The moment I was about to swing the Frost Sword, a groan was heard from inside.
“The Queen’s condition is critical!”
Ethan’s sword stopped in its tracks.
It was exactly the position where the elder fairy’s body could be split in half.
“I will give you one last chance.”
“… … Please help me.”
Only then did the elder fairy give the answer he wanted.
“You should have done that a long time ago.”
Ethan put the sword away.
Then he saw the elder fairy. It looked like he would just pass by, but Ethan had no intention of doing so.
“But you shouldn’t use force recklessly.”
Ethan struck the elder fairy with all his might.
Although she was a strong fairy, she was helpless against Ethan’s fist that came in at a moment’s notice.
“I will help you.”
Yerikka, who was standing behind him, covered her mouth with her hand and laughed.
