Dungeon Hunter Chapter 105:

Chapter 105: Abnormal Proliferation (2)

Despite releasing a number of creatures, I knew that it was only a temporary measure .

I could gain some room but it wouldn’t lead to permanent peace .  The same problem would continue unless I removed the root cause .

The propagation rate was steadily growing . The quality was never diminishing .

Time passed . My anxiety reached peak levels .

Yihi didn’t wake up and the light from the Dungeon Core was waning every day .

‘Tree of Origin . ’

I knew the cause .  I knew but was unable to move my hand .

“However…”

I pulled out Wrath .

Then I headed towards the Tree of Origin on the 15th floor .

“Dungeon Master . Please calm yourself . There are other ways to solve it . ”

Julliom realized my intentions and knelt down before me .  The tree was the representation of their desires .

But it was no use .  My patience was already dried up .

“Julliom . I need to remove the cause of the side effects . This decision was long overdue . In fact, I should have moved quicker . ”

Suok!

Pasak!

I brandished my sword . A corner of the Tree of Origin was cut down . Julliom’s body trembled and he grabbed my pants .

“Ahh…! No! Please, please not the Tree of Origin!”

“If the dungeon collapses then there will be no tree . Don’t block me . I will cut you both down if you continue acting like this . ”

Kuuuuoh!

It was right at that moment . The Tree of Origin made a sound like it was screaming . It tried to defend itself .

However, that was just wishful thinking .

Pasasak!

Hundreds of branches were cut down . I was using the skill Dark Sword so the severed objects didn’t grow back .

Kuuuuoh!

“Shut up . I’ve endured it for as long as possible . This wouldn’t have been necessary if you hadn’t disturbed me . ”

I had an indifferent expression .

As I used my sword, Julliom and the dark elves in the vicinity blocked their eyes and ears . They couldn’t help shedding tears .

The Tree of Origin was the source of their dreams and hope . The only sanctuary in this dungeon . Now it was being cut down indiscriminately . They couldn’t block it . A sense of helplessness filled their bodies .

I stopped to take a breath in the middle .

“…My Dungeon Master . I found something . A person who can communicate with nature . ”

Chrisley, who previously left the dungeon, had hastily returned .

There was a small human girl with her .

A human girl .  She was approximately nine years old?

An existence that didn’t fit in the dungeon .  She didn’t pay attention to any of the surrounding dark elves .  The girl looked at the Tree of Origin and started weeping .

“Ah…”

The girl sat down close to the Tree of Origin and started embracing it .

I realized straight away that the girl was an Awakened . Dull eyes . I also recognized that she wasn’t normal .

“Autistic?”

“Yes . But she can communicate with nature . ”

Chrisley showed her resolve in addressing this problem by leaving the dungeon . That was two weeks ago .  Then this was her answer .

I opened Mind’s Eye .

Name: Lee Sarang
Occupation	Hero (Nature Person)	Title	* Comforted by Nature (Ex U, Magic Power +8)
Stats
Strength	21	Intelligence	3
Agility	15	Stamina	18
Magic Power	55 (+8)
Potential: (114+8/425)   Uniqueness: Intelligence is very low . Due to this, it is possible to communicate more closely with nature . Skill: Comfort (Ex U), Natural Fairy Tale (R), Nature Communication (U

A familiar name . A familiar skill . Very high potential .

‘Queen of Benevolence . ’

Just like Yoo Eun-hye had the name ‘Lightning Queen,’ Lee Sarang was famous for her kindness .

In the second half of the war . As the earth was driven to destruction and food became very low, humans started eating humans . The Awakened couldn’t easily believe in each other when Lee Sarang appeared .

She used the powerful Natural Fairy Tale skill and revived the land . Plants took root and started bearing fruit .  As the food shortage was resolved, the Awakened could use their power properly to strike back at the demons .

That’s why Lee Sarang was called ‘Queen of Benevolence . ’ Without hesitation, she equally spread love among humans .

I knew she was a South Korean, but I didn’t expect to encounter her in a place like this .

‘Communicating with nature…’

Lee Sarang was definitely remarkable .  She wasn’t affected by the dungeon and only cared about the Tree of Origin .  In addition, Lee Sarang had stopped the Tree of Origin from screaming .

“But won’t it be difficult to converse if she has autism? It doesn’t seem to solve our problem . ”

She could communicate with nature but there would be no way to tell me what it was saying .

Chrisley expressed her opposition .

“She is unmistakably the key to solving this . My Dungeon Master . If given a bit more time…”

“Ah! Ah!”

Chrisley’s words were interrupted .

Lee Sarang had placed one hand on the tree while the other one slapped her chest .  It was like something was weighing down on her .

“…I will give you a week . Analyze that child’s behaviour and figure out how to stop the tree . ”

“Thank you, My Dungeon Master . You will not be disappointed . ”

Chrisley and Julliom next to her sighed with relief .

Suruk!

I put away my sword and headed back up to the top floor .

Exactly one week passed .

I stood in front of the Tree of Origin while holding Yihi in one hand .

Chrisley stood to my left and politely said to me .

“The Tree of Origin is a necessary existence . Right now it can’t control itself . ”

“Then Yihi?”

“She is an origin spirit . Tashmal will testify . ”

Tashmal started speaking .

“That’s right . I thought it was strange at first . The Tree of Origin and origin spirit should pair with each other . I believe it is because she is still too young . ”

I looked between Yihi and the Tree of Origin .

“Yihi is a fairy . Similar to a spirit but clearly different . Perhaps there can be a substitute system?”

Spirits were born in the Spirit World . By nature, a fairy took a long time to mature .

Chrisley answered the obvious question .

“My Dungeon Master . The fairy is very special . She is linked to the Dungeon Core . That leads to a massive amount of magic power . It should be enough power to control the Tree of Origin . ”

“Okay . The method?”

“The human girl’s ‘Fairy Tale’ skill . If you make the girl an intermediary role…”

“Ah! Ah!”

Lee Sarang looked up at Yihi .

She stretched out her hand like she was asking something .

“Do it well if you want to get out of here alive . ”

I threatened while handing Yihi over .

Yihi might be young but she was still linked to the Dungeon Core . It was a privilege to be able to touch her spiritual body .

Lee Sarang took Yihi and ran up to the Tree of Origin .

She closed her eyes and instinctively used the ‘Natural Fairy Tale’ and ‘Nature Communication skill . ’

Kuoooh-

The Tree of Origin gave a small cry . The resonance had begun .
