Boy Who Has Been Reincarnated Twice Spends Peacefully as an S-Rank Adventurer, ~ I who was a Sage and a Hero of Previous World, Will Live in Peacefulness in the Next World~ - Chapter 210
◆ Liliela ◆
“Let’s go! Get out of the way!”
Gyro-kun jumps up high into the sky and dives into the demons on the ground, clad in flames, and at that moment the demons cause a huge explosion.
“Whoa! What power! That huge demon with a single blow!
“And he’s a hell of a kid!”
The dwarves are astonished by Gyro’s fighting spirit.
“Ha-ha! Come on, come on, come on, come on!”
Gyoro-kun then puts fire in his sword and starts to reap the demons that are coming toward him.
“Yo, all right! We can’t let that kid beat us!”
“Yes. I’ve learned so much from His Majesty the Honorable King Lex! Let’s show them how it’s done!”
“”””Oh!!!”””
Inspired by his battle, the Dwarves, clad in their brand-new armaments, head for the demons.
“That’s it!”
The first dwarf swung his great axe, and the hard shell of the demon was cut clean off.
“Nuun!”
Then the dwarf beside him swings down his hammer, and the shell of the demon is smashed open with a crack, as if breaking an eggshell.
“Amazing! A demon so easily?
“Dangerous!”
The dwarf, amazed by the new equipment, is attacked by the monster’s giant scissors.
“Whoa, whoa!
But the armor, made from the old bark of the World Tree, does not even seem to be affected by the demon’s attack.
“Seriously? ……”
The dwarves were even more surprised at the tremendous performance of the equipment they had created.
“Look, look, look. Now let’s focus on the demon in front of us.
I cut off the bewildered dwarves as they came toward me, and called their attention to me.
“I’m sorry. Thank you for your help.
I look around the battlefield and go to cover the other dwarves.
“This is more than …… expected, though.”
The dwarves fighting on the battlefield were surprised at their own performance, but none of them were struggling.
In fact, they even had the upper hand against the large number of giant monsters.
And without any magical support.
“We really don’t need a magician for this, do we?
Yes, we were fighting demons without the support of a magician.
It all started because of …… Gyro’s words.
“If you guys fight first, the battle will be over in no time and we won’t have any time to fight!
In fact, when it came to the battle, Lex and the elves’ magic …… or rather Lex’s magic turned the situation in our favor so quickly that the battle was over before Gyro and the dwarves arrived to cover us.
And after such a situation continued over and over again, he wanted to fight too.
Well, I don’t blame him.
Sharaza, the leader of the elven warriors, and the dwarven elders accepted our request.
Because with Lex there, we can rely on him in case of emergency, and he is the perfect person to train us in efficient fighting techniques and when wizards are unable to fight.
“And thanks to His Majesty the Honorable King Lex we have regained some of the old Dwarven ways. We would like to test the performance of our equipment using this technology and the old bark of the World Tree that we could not process before.”
He also wants to test his new equipment.
“Woohoo! Thanks to what I learned from Master Rex about how to identify the weak points of materials, I know where to attack this monster!”
“Ha ha ha! You’re weak here! Here!”
But well, like those dwarves over there, thanks to Lex’s incredible technology, the dwarves have been strengthened in terms of technology as well as equipment.
“Cu-cu-cu-cu-cu-cu-cu-cu-cu-cu-cu-cu-cu-cu-cu-cu-cu-cu-cu-cu-cu-cu-cu-cu-cu-cu-cu-cu-dwarfs!
And Mohamofu was also running around the battlefield, slaying demons in every direction.
“Mokyumokyu!”
…… Well, in her case, it seems that she is trying to eat demons rather than to defeat her enemies.
When she was fighting like that, the enemy was naturally destroyed.
“That’s amazing! I never thought the Dwarves would achieve such an overwhelming victory. ……”
The elves, who were watching the battle from the rear, were astonished at the overwhelming increase in strength of the dwarves.
Yes, I can see that. I know what it’s like to want to say that after seeing Rex-san’s mistake.
“Ha! I’m scuffled, man!”
“Good job. You did a great job.”
“Oh! Thanks to Miss Lilieira for supporting the Dwarves!”
Gyro also congratulated me, as he had been fighting on the front lines for so long.
I thought all you thought about was fighting the enemy, but before I knew it, you’ve learned to see the world around you.
I’m not holding my breath.
“Thank you.”
After the battle, we were about to go back to the World Tree, leaving the collection of materials for the demons to the dwarves, when we noticed a white ball of fur moving in the corner of our eyes and immediately went to collect it.
“Oh, hey, Fluff Fluff! Didn’t Mr. Lex tell you not to go outside?”
“Cu?”
I don’t know why, but she always wants to go outside the township.
Does she want to hunt demons in the forest?
◆
“Mmm.”
While we were strolling around the branch town of the World Tree, Sharaza-san was groaning when he saw a field built on top of a branch.
“What’s the matter, Mr. Sharaza?”
“Oh, this is Lex.”
“What’s troubling you?”
When I asked him a question, he scratched his head with a complicated expression.
“No, it’s just that …… we’re running out of food.”
“Food?”
I followed Mr. Sharaza’s gaze and looked at the field, but there were not …… many crops there.
“The fruits are kind of small, aren’t they?”
Yes, the crops in the field were small and few in number.
You are right. The crops are not so good this year, and it is unlikely that they will be distributed to everyone.
“What do you do in such a situation?”
“We go into the forest to hunt wild plants and weak demons……, but it is quite difficult to do so in the current forest. We must be prepared for casualties this time.”
Well, what we can’t harvest in the fields, we have to go out and hunt.
But to do so, we have to go into the forest where a lot of demons roam.
It must be really hard to harvest enough food to feed everyone in the township on a regular basis.
Is there anything I can do to help? …… Yes! Since we’re at the World Tree, let’s make something!
“Excuse me, Mr. Sharaza. If you don’t mind, could you help us with the food?
“That would be …… helpful, but it would deviate from what you asked for, wouldn’t it?”
Sharaza says we don’t have to do that much since all he is asking us to do is to defend the township.
Well, he is a good and honest man, or rather an elf.
“No problem. The logistics are part of the defense.”
“…… appreciate it.”
Yes, it is all the people in the township who are suffering from the lack of food.
It is not a good feeling to see those who cannot fight starving.
“Well then, let’s start making fertilizer for the fields!”
What? Fertilizer? Aren’t you going to help me hunt?”
Perhaps my words came as a surprise to Ms. Sharaza.
“What? Fertilizer? You mean you’re going to make that again?
Liliela, who heard the word “fertilizer”, voiced her confusion.
Liliela is talking about the fertilizer we used in Hongzio Village, isn’t she?
“No, that fertilizer can’t be made from the materials here, so I’m going to prepare a fertilizer that can be made only from the materials that can be collected at the World Tree for future use.
“Fertilizer made only from materials from the World Tree? It sounds like you could make something extraordinary. ……”
No, no, it’s just an ordinary fertilizer. Besides, the World Tree is a treasure trove of materials. There are many parts that can be used as fertilizer.
“Fertilizer from the World Tree… I feel like I’m using it in a terrible way… ……”
Haha, it’s just reusing weeds.
When I go to an area where there are no buildings in the city of branches, I scrape off the old, hard bark in the area.
“Is that bark used as fertilizer?”
“That’s right. The old bark of the world tree is full of good nutrients, so the old bark that peels off falls to the ground and becomes humus, providing rich nutrients for the surrounding land.”
“Wow.”
Well, those nutrients are also reabsorbed by the World Tree.
But that’s not all we use it for.
I go further into the branches and collect some small sprouts there.
They are big enough to hold a whole tree, because they are the size of the World Tree.
These sprouts are the leaves that the World Tree spreads to obtain the blessings of the sun, and they too are full of a different kind of nutrition than the bark.
After collecting some other materials, I immediately start making fertilizer.
The old bark of the world tree is ground into powder, and the water is extracted by squeezing the sprouts of the world tree.
I mix them together to make a paste, and when it is mixed to some extent, I add the sap and nectar of the world tree and mix it again.
“……Got it!”
The result was a clear fluorescent liquid.
“Is this …… fertilizer? It’s nothing like the fertilizer I made before.”
“And isn’t the quantity too small? That’s not nearly enough to spread on a field of branches, is it?”
After seeing the finished liquid, Liliela and Sharaza are skeptical that it will be enough to restore the fields.
But that’s just as well. Because this is not the end of the medicine.
Don’t worry. This elixir was prepared as an intermediate material. It will only be completed as a fertilizer when it is mixed with the powdered bark of the world tree.
Saying this, I sprinkle the elixir on the powder I have prepared in advance, which is a mixture of young bark and dead leaves of the world tree, and mix it thoroughly.
“Wow, by mixing it with the elixir, it becomes a fertilizer ……?
“Oh, with an elixir …… made from the World Tree?”
What do you mean, “elixir?”
Liliela and Sharaza rolled their eyes in surprise for some reason.
“Wait, wait, wait! Was that the elixir? The legendary elixir?
“Are you sure? Did you really create that legendary medicine from the materials of the World Tree?
Yes, we can. This World Tree is quite small compared to the ordinary World Trees, but it is still a great World Tree. So you can make elixirs as usual, right?
“No, I don’t think you can make elixirs normally. ……”
“I mean, I don’t know how to make elixir itself. ……”
“Huh?”
What does that mean? Most people know how to make elixirs using materials from the World Tree, and a homemaker should have a stockpile of products made by herself for emergencies. …….
“Oh, I see.”
I see. So that’s what it’s all about.
I guess Sharaza and the other warriors in the village have spent their time learning how to make medicines to improve their fighting skills.
In the battle the other day, the elves were the starters and the dwarves were the alternates, so I guess the roles are divided so that medicines are made by specialized people.
I remember that one of my acquaintances in my previous life told me that this division of labor is an important mechanism to make those who cannot fight feel that they are of use to those who are fighting.
He also said that if one person can do everything, the burden and the skill will be delayed, so it is important to have a specialist to support the person.
But I miss him.
It’s true that most injuries and illnesses can be cured with elixirs, but it’s actually faster and easier to heal them with magic.
Besides, medicines are raw, so they will spoil if they are not treated specially.
That’s also the reason why keeping elixirs around has fallen into disuse.
“I wonder if they use the legendary elixir for fertilizer ……. Rumor has it that there are only a few bottles left in the treasuries of the great powers and they are rarely used.”
Well, I guess big countries are very careful.
In this age when magical cures have become the mainstream, it’s a wonder they even have elixirs on hand.
I’d have thought that small countries would be more concerned with efficiency and stop producing elixirs.
So here is the elixir fertilizer. If you spread it on the fields, the soil will recover quickly and you can harvest a large amount of crops!
“Oh, oh, thank you ……. I’m very concerned that you used the precious elixir as fertilizer. ……”
“No, no, it’s easy to make elixirs, so don’t worry about it.
No, it’s not easy to make elixirs!””No, it’s not easy to make elixirs!””
What? I don’t think so.
Anyway, this solves the problem of food shortage!
◆Sharaza ◆
“So you’re going to spread this ……?”
We were spreading fertilizer with an elixir that Master Lex had given us onto the fields.
Since the elders were reluctant to do so, we managed to get permission to spread it on a part of the field to see how it looked. …… But still, spreading elixir on a field…?
“Is this …… really allowed to use it?”
Frankly speaking, I am concerned about using this legendary medicine in the field.
But the reality is that it has already been used as fertilizer, so we can’t just throw it away.
“Yes! We have no choice but to use it!”
Determined, I spread the fertilizer with the elixir on the field.
As soon as I had finished spreading all the fertilizers, I felt a rush of stress and decided to go home and go to bed.
I honestly don’t want to wake up and think about this.
The next day…
“What the hell is this?
I couldn’t help but scream when I saw the field that looked like a forest. ……
Who the hell is that guy really? ……
