Part 2 Episode 111
dragon and horse
Sean and King Yulho did not express much disagreement.
I just nodded, thinking it made a lot of sense.
“You know better, so you can do it yourself.”
“Is there anything I can help you with?”
When Elric shook his head and said it was okay, the two said they understood and headed toward the castle wall.
The intention was to stand guard directly.
As the two walked away, Elric went straight to his office.
‘First of all, we must first awaken to the seal of original sin.’
He closed his eyes and sat down, thinking.
Because that was the first step to being able to imitate Mephisto.
Fortunately, we have all the ingredients to awaken the seal of original sin.
“Whoa… .”
Elric took a deep breath, then clenched his fists and raised his magical energy.
As I raised my energy, I felt my demonic energy fluctuating.
He didn’t stop there.
Recalling the memory of being assimilated with Mephisto, I quickly rotated my magic energy.
To recreate the feeling of that time as much as possible.
‘Omnipotence.’
Quaaaaa!
Demonic energy began to rapidly circulate throughout the body.
The Seal of Spring was activated and continued to restore the missing demonic energy.
However, no matter how much I remembered the feeling at that time, it was almost impossible to reach ‘original sin’ all at once.
‘You have to work your way up step by step from the beginning.’
Elric drew a different image in his mind using the power he had raised so far.
In the past, a baby demon pulled out from Prime Minister Norus.
And the fruit of the devil tree that gave birth to such a thing.
Elric wanted to create a pure crystal with that viciousness.
And the tree that will bear that fruit.
It was located very well on Elric’s body.
* * *
Elric placed his hand on his chest and quietly observed his inner self.
Inside, the World Tree stood with its stiff branches wide open.
Although it had changed into a horned demon, it still seemed to be in good condition.
This was because the world tree was located not only in the body but also in the mind and image.
‘I had no idea Ig would be used this way.’
Who would dare imagine turning the World Tree into a demon tree?
However, this was the only way to obtain the seal of original sin.
And above all, there was only one difference between the Jewel Tree and the Demon Tree.
What do you use as nourishment, mana or demonic energy?
Since it was a world tree that absorbed mana and demonic energy at the same time, increasing the proportion of one side would not be a big problem.
‘I normally have a lot more mana.’
It was different now.
Now that we have become demons and are full of demon energy more than ever, we should be able to change the nature of the World Tree.
Kwaaaaa-
While drawing a mental image, Elric began releasing all the demonic energy he had generated and concentrated towards the roots of the World Tree.
Wiggle!
Just then, Ig reacted.
As if he had been waiting, the guy started sucking in a large amount of demon energy at once.
He seems to be absorbing demonic energy much more actively than expected.
Wow!
As it was absorbing ever-increasing amounts, even the spring seal had to be accelerated.
“Whoa… !”
Elric continued to breathe and focused on expelling demon energy.
Sweat flowed from my forehead.
In an instant, my back became wet.
Perhaps because I was focusing all my attention, my body felt like it was getting heavier and heavier.
still.
Elric held on tightly to his spirit.
To send even a little more demon energy.
Is it thanks to those efforts?
Quad deuk-
The magic energy spreads upward through the roots and up the stem, all the way to the tip of the branch.
As if spring had arrived, flowers began to bloom one by one.
Hwaaaaaaa!
The petals were dark, like an abyss.
As I quietly looked at them, it felt like they were stimulating a desire deep in my heart.

‘Now is the real beginning.’
Elric accelerated his concentration again.
Because it hasn’t borne fruit yet.
It wouldn’t matter if it was stabilized, but if there wasn’t even a little bit of strength here, all the flowers that had bloomed could wither.
It was a situation where the efforts so far could have been in vain.
‘I can never leave it like that.’
Kwakwakwakwa!
Elric collected as much demonic energy as he could and injected it into the World Tree.
How much effort did you put into it?
Before I knew it, the World Tree had taken on the appearance of a complete demon tree.
It appeared to be emitting demonic energy and turning dark.
And as soon as I realized that fact, the flower petals began to flutter and fall one by one.
Thuk, thud!
And from the center of the flower, a small, white fruit grew.
It was a clear contrast to the black branches of the World Tree.
However, its size was still insignificantly small.
‘Not yet… .’
Elric continued to infuse his energy.
As the amount of magical energy given increased, the size of the fruit gradually grew to the point where it was visible to the naked eye.
‘little bit more… !’
It’s still big enough to fit in one hand.
At that time, the fruit, which was as white as jade, began to turn black from above.
‘Almost done!’
And when it completely changes color.
Tuk!
The fruit fell to the floor.
After that, countless fruits growing on various branches of the tree fell down.
“ha… .”
Only after seeing that far, Elric was able to relax and breathe a sigh of relief.
Now that the World Tree has consumed demonic energy and changed its nature, there is no need to overdo it like before.
He picked up a devil tree fruit lying on the floor.
‘It looks as weird as its name.’
The fruit was similar in size to an apple, only the color was different.
But there was one thing that particularly stood out.
The wrinkled surface makes it seem like you are looking at a person screaming.
No matter where I looked, it didn’t look appetizing at all.
‘I don’t really feel like it.’
Elric took a bite of the fruit without hesitation.
Wow!
And that moment.
“… !”
As the body was replenished with high-purity magical energy, vitality began to flow throughout the body, and Elric’s eyes opened with a tingling sensation.
It was back to reality again.
“Ugh… !”
Elric exhaled harshly.
It was because a strong force came in so quickly.
To stabilize my breathing, I did abdominal breathing several times.
After his breathing calmed down to some extent, he looked around his body and burst out in admiration.
‘It’s bigger than I thought, right?’
Every part of my body had changed a lot.
It was definitely effective because it was a devil tree fruit with traces of Mephisto.
and.
Turn your gaze toward the area that feels like being pricked by a needle.
Support!
A small flame was flying on my right arm, and something was being drawn.
Elric could tell at once that it was a seal.
The seal slowly began to reveal its outline.
The appearance of a baby goat.
Looking at it quietly, Elric felt like he could intuitively know what the true name of the seal was.
“… “He is harsh and vicious.”
So it is malicious.
Woe!
At that moment, a black light appeared above the seal and then disappeared.
The seal is now completely in place.
‘It’s a success.’
Elric smiled in satisfaction.
Even though I asked Mephisto to find out the trigger of the seal, I couldn’t figure it out, and now I finally got a hint.
He lightly poured magical energy into the seal to check its abilities in more detail.
Whoa!
In an instant, the demon energy accelerated and began to run wild as if it would explode.
It seems to have the effect of amplifying demonic energy.
Once the seal was confirmed, there was no time to hesitate any longer.
There is a long way to go to grow the seal.
“Okay, then shall we continue eating?”
Elric entered the image of the World Tree again with excitement.
There were a lot of fruits to eat.
* * *
After that, Elric continued to pick up the fruit and eat it.
If you think it’s not enough, supply the magic energy, and then eat it when the fruit grows. Repeat.
Each time, the seal grew and the quality of the demonic energy changed.
As the incoming magic energy changed, so did the fruit.
‘It’s almost the size of a melon.’
Elric muttered as he picked up another fruit nearby.
‘This thing looks exactly like a rambutan.’
In addition to simply looking like apples, fruits of various shapes began to grow.
But the good news is that the overall amount of magical power itself is different from before, and the growth rate is also changing day by day.
like that.
Before we knew it, the goat in the seal, which was a baby, had grown into an adult with beautiful horns.
* * *
“Here, it’s a gift.”
Elric said, holding out a basket.
“… what?”
Sean and King Yulho looked like they couldn’t understand.
This was because it was filled with black apples of all different shapes.
The only thing Elric did over the past few days was stay in his office.
But when he suddenly comes out and gives me these things as a gift, I can’t help but feel embarrassed.
There wouldn’t even be any trees around here that could get fruit.
However, the fruit in the basket looked to be in very good condition, without any scratches.
King Yulho was looking around at the fruit, saying it was fascinating.
“hmm?”
Shawn’s eyes widened as he observed Elric’s gift.
That’s because he realized too late that the magical energy contained in the fruit was unusual.
And there was only one fruit like this in the world.
“Isn’t this the fruit of the devil tree?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
Elric calmly nodded and continued speaking.
“It’s a small amount. Please share some with the soldiers.”
“I guess I’ll have to…” “Where on earth did you get this?”
As far as Sean knew, the devil tree was a tree that only existed deep in the black snow fields.
In particular, the more demonic energy these fruits receive, the bigger they become, and they eventually grow into demons.
It was definitely not something that could be found in this empty plain where there was nothing left.
“It came out because I had a little trouble with Mephi.”
“Mephistopheles?”
“yes.”
Elric answered as if it were completely obvious.
For a moment, Sean wondered what that meant.
Not only could Mephisto not enter the arrangement, but he also felt that he was not a demon who would listen obediently even if he threatened him.
Looking at his blank face.
Elric couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
Wizard who swallowed talent
