three fountains (2)
As explained earlier, there are three springs under the World Tree.
Hvergelmir’s Spring and Urd’s Spring. It is the spring of Mimir.
“It’s spectacular.”
What unfolded in front of us was a sparkling, golden fountain.
Mimir’s fountain.
Among the three routes to the spring, this is the easiest and most comfortable route.
Even in the game, it was a route that got caught in the feeling of a kind of easy mode.
“What shall we do, brother?”
“Destroying Sam is the norm.”
Springs are the main source of energy for the growth of the World Tree. Even if this was removed, the expansion of the world tree could be prevented immediately.
“How do I get rid of this fountain? Can I bomb it with magic?”
“There is that, but there are also unexpectedly different ways.”
“what is that?”
“You can eat it.”
“huh?”
“Drinking this will make your hair feel better.”
“······really?”
It’s real.
Each spring serves to supply nutrients to the World Tree. In other words, the spring itself is a kind of elixir.
The effect of the elixir itself didn’t seem to be that powerful, but in the game Mimir’s fountain did increase its magic power and other stats.
It was also a place where the player party stayed and drank spring water to prepare for the final battle.
I’ve never actually drank this before.
“Normally, even if a small number of people drink, the spring won’t dry up. But… roughly how many people are there?”
“There will be close to 10,000.”
“Even if you eat just one liter per person, the fountain will dry up.”
“Aha~”
I stood in front of the soldiers preparing for camp, setting torches around the fountain.
“Come on, pay attention!”
Even though it is in the dark without any light, the golden light of Sam replaced the lighting and the eyes are naturally focused.
“As a result of the investigation, it was found that this spring water is ‘drinkable’ spring water. Drinking water will be supplied from this spring water.”
“Are you okay?”
A soldier raised his hand. He spoke on behalf of many people’s questions.
“It’s not that I don’t believe in the sutra, but… but there’s something in the spring water in a place like this…”
It’s a natural question.
Suddenly, the light of the world disappears, and all sorts of monsters come out and march under a huge tree that reaches into space.
It is natural to doubt whether it is safe to drink the strange golden spring water found in such a situation.
“I understand your concerns. I’ll drink first as a demonstration.”
“No, until that point…”
I left their worries behind and took a cup and filled it with spring water.
The brilliant golden spring water slithers and emits light on its own. In fact, looking at this alone, I suspect radioactive water…
– Gulp!
The spring water that I drank at once goes into my throat. Mimir’s spring water is more than I thought…
‘what is this. How delicious is it?’
It feels like drinking sweet honey water. I’ve eaten all kinds of delicacies in this world, but I’ve never had a drink so delicious.
Besides, I’m a famous sub player. The response came as an intuitive message.
[You have consumed the spring water of Mimir.]
– Aura, magic recovery power increases by 250%.
Doesn’t wisdom really rise like in tradition? No, it feels like my head has cleared and my brain has sped up.
Well, it could be because of my mood, but there is no doubt that it is beneficial to eat once.
‘With this level of resilience… I’m sure I’ll be able to keep up with the sun?’
It’s definitely the last minute, so it’s not unusual to spread abilities.
“Ko, Sir Corinn? How are you?”
Soldiers slowly approaching. They seemed very curious about my reaction to drinking the spring water.
“Ummm… is this delicious?”
“Yes? Is it delicious?”
“Yes, it’s so delicious. I feel like I’m clearing my mind and hey~ Is this really what the wizards said?”
“As the wizards said?”
I spread rumors with a touch of gura to the soldiers who were very interested in the spring water.
“They say it’s good for the body, but it looks like it’s real. They say it’s especially good for men.”
“To a man?”
With just those words, the soldiers realized the true meaning of my words.
-gulp!
-If you only drink that…
what from then on
-Oh oh! This is so delicious!
– Is it honey water? How the hell does spring water taste like this?
– I feel like my mind is getting clearer!

– Is it really good for the body!
If this is really the fountain of wisdom as it is in the original text, I don’t know if all of these 10,000 people will later become doctors or masters.
Returning to the camp with the overflowing spring water, I found a familiar face.
“Aren’t you angry?”
“take no interest.”
Arisha also rushes at her saying that if she eats this, her grades will improve, but she doesn’t seem to be interested in it.
However, it tastes good and is good for the body, so I would like to drink some.
“I’ll give it to you, so try it. It tastes good.”
“…if only a little bit.”
When he puts the overflowing spring water into a cup, he accepts it with his small hands.
The face of Hwa, who sipped spring water in a cup with a clear face, came to mind.
“delicious.”
“right?”
Only spring water. I guess I didn’t know it could be so delicious.
“for a moment······.”
The color of her eyes gradually turned blue. change to lan
“Hello brother.”
“Come on. What’s the painter saying?”
“It’s delicious, so I want to try it too.”
“It’s nice.”
“Right?”‘
Her personality is silent and she has few expressions, but the affection she secretly shows is genuine and cute.
“Brother, I can’t see you very well, please come a little closer.”
“okay.”
I gladly sat next to Ran. Close enough to touch each other’s body temperature. Ran comes leaning her face on her shoulder.
“It’s uncomfortable. This darkness.”
“Yeah. I didn’t know something like this was possible.”
I was vaguely thinking about God.
God or Danan, something mysterious and powerful. But if you try to defeat it, it’s not impossible… A slightly stronger human?
But after seeing the miracle that made the light of the world disappear, I got a little fed up.
The gods of this world, if not omnipotent, are capable of truly absurd things.
“Surprisingly, there won’t be many gods like that. Master has said before. Among the gods, there are some that are classified as ‘Lords’.”
God’s power comes from the concept of nature and the faith of believers.
Therefore, it is said that the more people who worship the concept, the greater the power of the god.
“Light must be like that. It’s absolutely necessary. It’s something that people naturally admire.”
“Kwangmyeong… that’s for sure. But oppa. If that’s true…”
sun.
the trust that I carry. I have no particular intention of becoming a god, but I also have a concept that all living creatures have worshiped and held up since the beginning of time.
“Do you really have to become a god to defeat Baltazar…?”
It’s an odd situation. Obviously, there was no such word in the game.
Even in the previous episodes, the concept of God was not prominent.
What is the difference between now and the previous episode?
“Nothing changes.”
Tates Balthazar. Knock down the light of this era. It’s a simple story.
“Brother, where are you going?”
“If you go back to the root… and back again to another root, you’ll get to another spring.”
“Then we’ll go too.”
“no.”
I sat down. Maybe this is something only I can do.
“I’m conserving my strength. I’ll be back soon.”
* * * *
– Aaah!
-help me!
– Stop it! stop it!
Screams and screams rip apart. And it was contagious to others, bringing anxiety and fear.
this is hell
A simple hell where mythical giants and human cries are harmonized.
“Wow, Her Highness the Princess! A new group has appeared in the rear! They are the dead!”
Miriam frowned as a commander-level knight approached and urgently informed him of the war situation.
“Turn the troops equipped with anti-horse equipment to the rear. What about the magician’s support bombardment?”
“It stopped 5 minutes ago… It is estimated that the mana has been exhausted.”
Support from the wizarding corps was cut off. Miriam couldn’t help but notice how serious the matter was.
The magician manpower pool of the expeditionary force is overflowing.
Not only the rear units divided by the roots of the world tree, but also each isolated unit had several wizards.
However, the fact that the wizard’s firepower support was cut off meant that much of the magic was consumed.
And this place was terribly full of ‘many’ dead to the extent of forcing them to consume that much.

A horde of specters filled the field of vision even in the heart of the Legion.
They are not an army. Not even a bunch.
Individual specters were haphazardly forming battle lines and charging into the equipped legion.
How many ghosts are there, if the number seems endless?
The ‘dragon’ that Corinne Locke talked about didn’t even appear.
“Huh… I didn’t expect something like this.”
Miriam thought he was well aware of Tates Baltazar’s power.
But this is not something. Far beyond imagination.
It made the light disappear from this world and made a place full of ghosts like this a base.
Something beyond human common sense.
It feels like being thrown into the center of a myth that humans can’t help.
-Ah!
-Go, put the golem ahead! I mean stop it!
-Damn it, the weapon doesn’t work! We don’t even have magic power!
“If it’s like this…”
Legion is annihilated. With a number like this… no, the numbers themselves are meaningless battlefields.
On this battlefield, the only ones with significant power were the few units equipped with anti-horse equipment, or the knights and wizards who could use magical powers.
‘then······.’
There is a last resort.
But that requires too many sacrifices.
At least Corinne Locke will never tolerate it.
‘I’m not Corinne Locke.’
She is neither a good person nor a talented person. Miriam, who showed infinite action in the driving force of revenge, is no longer there.
The only thing left now is a rational and rational cool-headed princess.
“Your Highness the Princess. If you are at home… you can start at any time.”
“·······.”
At the sight of one of the commanders, Miriam shut her mouth. He must think that this is the only thing left.
The sacrifice of a cow for the great. It’s a very ideal choice when it comes to logic and rationality, but…
“·······.”
Miriam felt lust gleaming in the eyes of the officers looking at her.
They are, after all, children of humans. He is an ordinary human being, not a hero, who has no choice but to reach the same conclusion, even emotionally, beyond reason and rationality.
“for a moment······.”
Therefore, Miriam was obliged to stand on the other side. The moment you agree with that opinion, it is certain that you will fall like a ball pushed by gravity.
“Let’s hold on a little longer. It’s still… too early to give up.”
Saying that, Miriam raised her magic power. Her staff transforms into a snake and becomes gigantic.
Midgard Oreum. Once the Serpent of the End has hatched, it can be controlled to some extent.
Of course, if it loosens up even a little, it will rather eat its owner.
“good.”
A huge snake rushed forward. If it is an infinite snake that eats everything, he will endure until the moment he runs out of magic power.
-Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
However, it would be faster for the infinite snake to run out of magic than to be hacked to pieces by the dead.
There was no Marie to assist with magic here, so… Miriam chewed her lips hard.
“Coryn Locke, you goddamn husband… come and save me.”
Did her desperate wish work? A dazzling light poured from the other side, which stretched endlessly.
‘light? No, this is…’
The light extinguished by Balthazar. It was the intense sunlight that was dispelling the darkness on his behalf.
“Tae, Taeyang…”
“He’s the only one who can do that…!”

Countless dead screamed and burned. The purification of the sun, which does not tolerate evil, is burning them.
Numbers are meaningless.
There was a time when I thought so, and it is still the same now.
But this time, the case was just the opposite.
– Tumble!
A person who silently walks along with the brilliant sun that drives away the darkness.
The eyes of the living, who were about to be swept away by the waves of the dead and swallowed up, turned to the savior who had come to them.
How?
How could that man have been able to calmly walk through the endless crowd of dead?
“It’s a little late.”
With the arrival of the sun, the dead retreated.
In the eyes of the soldiers, he looked like the sun god.
* * * *
The sun is rising.
I was so glad and grateful that the sun, which I had taken for granted, was floating over my head, so the soldiers didn’t even care about my maturing body.
“The damage is quite large.”
“Are you okay? I heard that the roots of the world tree erode divine power.”
At Miriam’s words, Corinne shrugs and expresses that she can’t help it.
“If we turn off the sun right now, the soldiers will be anxious.
Energy erosion by the implementation of the sun and the world tree continues. Nonetheless, Corinne decided to stay in the sun.
Almost three days after the battle started. It was an army that could not sleep and faced the waves of the dead.
Soldiers who have been fighting with their whole body accepting their screams, cries, and curses need a rest.
“Do not work too hard.”
“He cares about everything, and I’m very happy about this, Princess Miriam.”
“Mir.”
“Hmm?”
“Mir.”
“Princess Mir?”
When Korin corrected the title, Miriam smiled as the blood poisoning disappeared.
“So… did you come alone?”
“Because I’m the only one who can calmly walk over the dead.”
“Thank you for coming, but honestly, you’re not much help if you’re alone. That sun… can’t be maintained indefinitely, right?”
Corinne didn’t deny it. Four hours at most. Even though he was receiving the buff from Mimir’s Spring, he could only last that long.
“I had a plan.”
“A plan?”
“Yes. In fact, this unit has lost most of its strength. Knights and wizards aside, the soldiers are virtually incapacitated.”
If it goes on like this, it will be annihilation. Miriam and the upper echelons did not even need to predict the inevitable outcome.
“What’s your plan?”
“······It’s simple. We’re going to gather all the remaining wizards and do a ‘group space leap’. The coordinates are… Josephine Clara’s marker.”
I don’t think I can break through, so I’d rather join another unit. It was a choice, of course, if I could.
However, there was a blind spot that could not help but be pointed out by Corinne and anyone who heard it.
“…wouldn’t everyone be able to go together?”
“okay.”
Corinne, who understood the conclusion that had to be affirmed in Miriam, frowned.
There is no need to deny it. It’s a matter of reality.
“The number of people who can escape by collective space jump is less than half of the 6,300 soldiers.”
That is, discard the rest.
And it is the weakest who are abandoned.
