Eat The World Tree

“Hyung.”

We had been walking east for a while. As we were grilling the fish we caught for lunch, Taeyang started talking to me.

He picked up a fallen leaf from the ground and showed a serious expression.

“If you’re going to say something strange again, stop it.”

“This is a lesson.”

What was there to teach?

“Look at this. What do you see?”

“Looks like an ordinary leaf.”

“Oh, no, professionals in dendrology would never call this just a leaf. You shouldn’t either, future king.”

I had heard it so much that now I was a bit curious.

Let’s see how far this went.

While watching the oil drip from the fish tail, I turned my head towards Taeyang.

He was seriously flaring his nostrils.

Behind him, Lee Hyang was preparing our meal, ignoring us.

“Hyung, look at this. Hey, rag.”

“Huh?”

Aori, who was resting against a tree, looked over at us.

“What do you think this is?”

When she saw the leaf in Taeyang’s hand, Aori shrugged and exhaled arrogantly as if it was nothing special.

Then he touched his index finger to his thumb and rubbed them together, smirking.

The strange hand movements of a madman.

“Eh… what else? It’s a trichotis.”

“Did you hear that?”

“What does that have to do with anything?”

The whole body of a tree was an erogenous zone.

Taeyang whispered as if trying to hypnotize me.

“The structure of a leaf is simple. This entire part is the leaf blade. The thread-like parts are the veins. The part connecting to the branch is called the petiole.”

“So what.”

“It’s like a human body. When you first touch a chest, it feels nothing, but as you stimulate it more, it becomes sensitive.”

Taeyang skillfully caressed the leaf.

He fixed the leaf with his index and middle fingers and gently rubbed it with his thumb, as if it were a nipple.

-Tick, tick.

He flicked the central vein, the main vein, with his thumb and forefinger.

“This is a common method for caressing a tree.”

“…I’d like to stop this conversation.”

“Oh, Hyung. If you want to be a great husband to a tree, you need to learn.”

“I’ll accept it as common sense, but it’s a bit dizzying to me.”

Taeyang spoke seriously.

“If you keep this up for five minutes, the knots will start to get wet. At this time, if you shout, ‘You’re getting wet, you dirty girl. Your roots are starting to tingle, huh? You must like it,’ it doubles the effect. Trees like to be dominated.”

“Why would a tree knot get wet?”

“Well… because it feels good?”

How the hell did you know that?

“Of course, the erogenous zones vary for each tree. Whether it’s the knots, leaves, or petals… you’ll have to find out for yourself, Hyung.”

“Oh, okay.”

“Your tone is a bit harsh, Hyung.”

I scratched the back of my neck.

Thinking about it, fucking a tree or whatever, it’s just a form of self-pleasure. Taeyang’s words were beyond insane.

They were serious about trees.

Starting with slow caresses, they had gone far beyond the norm.

“Can’t I just shove it in?”

“…”

Taeyang gasped.

“Hyung, you know something. I also like animalistic stuff. Actions that shock people usually feel good.”

So that was animalistic behavior.

I recalled the World Tree of Healing.

That one just shoved my thing into its knot without any caresses.

‘…Wait a minute, it did feel me up with its roots and branches, didn’t it?’

Was that its idea of caresses?

The World Tree of Healing. The more I thought about it, the more terrifying it was.

I didn’t know what it was doing now, but I hoped it was not giving other men trauma.

If it was waiting for me…

-Brrrr.

My body trembled with fear. The trauma of the wooden bath still lingered.

“Anyway, it will be useful. Next, let me teach you how to caress flowers. It’s polite to first bury your nose in them…”

“Let’s stop for today.”

Talking nonstop made it too real.

I really inherited the power of the Tree Spirit King.

And someday, I might have to do the crazy act of masturbating into a knot. It might be possible now, guided by the obscene devil.

I was reluctant. No matter how abnormal my life had been, this wasn’t right.

【 ‘World Tree of Purity’ is angry! 】

Thinking that, the World Tree of Purity started cursing me in my head. It even knew how to use emojis now.

It looked a bit old. But why could humans do it and trees couldn’t?

It was a weird one too.

“Listening to you guys, it feels really weird. Am I really-”

“Hyung.”

Taeyang interrupted my words and suddenly hardened his face.

A faint trace of magic flowed over his shoulder.

“Someone seems to be coming.”

Someone was rushing towards this place.

An ambush.

There weren’t many students who would attack a place where four people were gathered.

Were they here to loot?

-Rustle, rustle.

The sound of grass being trampled came from afar.

The sound of vines and branches being cut down with each step.

I immediately expanded my magic to see through the opponent’s movements.

One person. They are rushing towards here.

“Hyung.”

“Get ready.”

I immediately called the staff lying on the ground into my hand.

Taeyang held his breath and thinly wrapped his body with magic, then shouted to the two behind him.

“Someone’s coming!”

Aori and Lee Hyang immediately tensed up.

“Got it!”

“Hyang, you’re not fully recovered yet, so stay back. You, come here quickly. Protect the Hyung.”

“Okay.”

Lee Hyang was a dual-wielding swordsman, Taeyang and Aori were fighters who adapted to the situation similarly to me.

Sometimes they could use magic, and since they could absorb the power of the trees and wooden beings they had relations with, they could handle any weapon skillfully.

I moved my finger joints to create a thin wind cutter behind my back.

-Woong!

The magic trembled, forming a crescent moon shape.

-Crack!

The sound of branches breaking came closer.

Aori stood in front of me, tightly gripping large gauntlets. I didn’t know where she got them from.

I was a wizard now. To fulfill my role, I took a step back.

I spread my magic and began to lay spells in places the enemy might come from.

Between the gaps of trees. At the branches of tall trees. Or under the grass.

I set a spell in all the places the opponent could infiltrate.

A trap that caused flames to erupt from the ground when stepped on. Thanks to the staff’s effect, the magic consumption was low.

“Can you hold out?”

Three seconds.

They’d arrive by then.

I left the spell ready to activate and asked Taeyang.

“Oh, Hyung. Do I look that weak to you? I can beat an average National Tree easily.”

Taeyang answered confidently.

Could I trust him?

-Boom!

At that moment, the body of the tree in front of Taeyang shattered.

-Crrrraack!

The tree ripped apart with a strange sound and fell to the opposite side. Fragments of the tree scattered.

A black fist came straight at us, red magic surging above the knuckles.

Amid the fragments, yellow eyes glared fiercely.

“Found you.”

Behind the woman’s sharp voice, dozens of cameras followed.

[Ziiiiiing!]

Various types. Each one zooming in on us, quickly capturing us in their lenses.

The cameras, passing by like migratory birds, surrounded us in a circle.

-Bang!

The woman who broke through the tree reached out her hand.

Incredible speed.

Taeyang hastily extended his arms to brace himself, but she grabbed his wrist faster and flung him aside.

“Ugh, argh!”

Taeyang was thrown, leaving only a groan.

He flew far without even hitting a tree.

“…That idiot.”

Aori muttered while looking at the vanished Taeyang.

-Thud.

The woman stepped on the dirt path with worn shoes, wiping tree fragments off her face.

She looked at my mask with a face full of competitive spirit.

“Lee Shiheon.”

A long slit smile. Red magic.

She wore a revealing outfit, torn and altered to resemble her continental attire.

The fabric around her stomach and both arms was torn, exposing her upper and lower chest.

Her skin was a mix of black and brown.

“Finally found—”

Before she could finish her sentence, while looking at me.

“Aori, move aside.”

“Okay.”

After confirming Aori had retreated, I unleashed my magic.

Twenty wind cutters stored in the sky.

Dozens of spells rained down on the spot where the woman stood.

The grass and branches were shredded like doing earthwork. The ground bore marks of the wind cutters’ arcs.

-Rumble.

I kept casting spells without stopping.

I instantly changed the trajectory of the traps I had set to fly towards the woman.

Leaves caught on branches fell like raindrops.

As the dust storm swirled around us, I stopped the barrage and put away my staff.

Soon, the woman’s silhouette emerged.

“Hoo….”

Still unharmed, huh.

A spherical shield enveloped her.

High-level magic. Growth Rings.

A secret magic known only to National Trees and nobles, impossible for students to know.

It was said to be a wizard’s reserve life.

A brown ring-like belt spun around her like a hula hoop.

The African National Tree, Baobab Tree. A smile spread across her face.

‘Why would… a National Tree target me?’

She said she finally found me.

Even though I had never shown my face before, she came for me.

Following Aori and Taeyang. No way, could she also be a descendant of the Tree Spirit King?

“…You’re quite rough with your greetings.”

No time for pleasantries.

I reached out my staff towards Baobab again.

Behind me, Lee Hyang stood with dual swords, ready for anything.

Aori was also pouring out his magic without hesitation.

And Taeyang….

-Boom!

He was flying back towards us.

-Kwaang!

Taeyang’s fist struck Baobab’s Growth Rings.

With a loud boom, cracks formed in the barrier as his fist aimed at Baobab’s body.

Of course, he didn’t use the power of the Wooden Spirit.

If the power of the Wooden Spirit appeared on broadcast, we would be targeted and dealt with immediately.

The situation turned into a melee.

As Growth Rings shattered, Taeyang blocked the counterattack, raising his knee.

Baobab tried to retaliate, but Aori intervened and attacked her.

She spread his fingers and gathered her magic.

‘…There’s no magic I know that can deal with a National Tree.’

A pure magic orb expanded in her hand, containing the essence of wind.

The highest-level magic I knew was unusable in this situation.

Although I had many attack spells, none dealt significant damage.

I elongated the magic in my hand.

Long. I created a blue spear.

A spear-like arrow rose slowly from my hand.

‘If there’s no useful magic, create one yourself.’

Whirring, the spinning wind arrow sucked in the surrounding air.

It’s not a complete creation of mine, but a combination of existing spells with modifications.

It was focused on destructive power, reaching an advanced level.

-Boom!

At that moment, Taeyang, pushed back by Baobab’s strength, stood before me.

“Hyung….”

“Yeah.”

“She’s not an ordinary National Tree.”

He looked terrified.

“I’ve exchanged blows with her several times. My bones are rattling. Aori can’t hold on for more than a few seconds.”

Looking ahead, I saw Aori struggling, bending her body fiercely.

She fought like a cat, sticking to the ground with her small frame.

I launched the loaded spear between them.

Its name…

[Advanced – Wind Lotus]

The rotating wind spear, scattering traces like a lotus leaf, cut between Aori and Baobab.

-Kwaang!

With an ear-piercing sound, a large hole appeared in the tree in front of them.

The wind was strong enough to shake the surrounding grass.

Their hair swayed. Aori and Baobab kept their distance, maintaining silence.

“Negotiation.”

I started the conversation.

“There’s no need for a war of attrition here.”

A transaction similar to the one with Maronnie. It’s only been three days.

Baobab glanced at me, smiling.

“Well… I don’t mind. Lee Shiheon, right?”

“Yeah.”

“I only need you, Lee Shiheon.”

A heavy declaration. Baobab’s finger pointed at me.

Immediately, a menacing flame of magic rose from her shin.

For a moment, it seemed like a giant tree appeared behind her.

[Baobab Tree]

I knew. That tree.

A National Tree known for its supreme combat abilities.

-Flash!

A breath’s timing.

As Taeyang and Aori momentarily relaxed, the opponent moved first.

Baobab’s hand grabbed my head.

A massive hand. Realizing it, her size was beyond imagination.

Like she was becoming a giant.

2 meters 70 centimeters.

Maybe around that.

A chill ran down my spine as my body was lifted into the air.

My vision was blocked by her palm. The deafening sound rang in my ears again.

-Bang!

-Beeeeeep.

A ringing in my ears.

Did I hit the tree trunk with the back of my head? My vision was spinning.

I looked at Baobab through the gaps of her fingers.

The giant woman sat on my stomach.

Her long, stretched thighs spread in an M-shape, sitting on my torso.

It was the attire from the Forester Selection Competition, but her thighs were torn, vaguely showing her groin.

She wasn’t wearing underwear either.

“…”

-Throb.

My head hurt.

“You…. You’re from Spring Peach Blossom, aren’t you?”

No one was around, neither Aori nor Taeyang.

I must have been thrown a long distance with my face grabbed.

Baobab, sitting on me, was full of leisure.

“Bob.”

The name she spat out.

“Tell me where that bastard is. Right now.”
