012. Going out

October 15th. Sunny.

Planted a world tree today.

Believing the high elf’s words that mana grows faster when there is plenty of it, he encloses 29 elixirs.

I hope it’s not a lie

October 17th. blur.

It’s only two days. However, my heart is all over the World Tree.

It seems that the expectations are too high. No, I would say hope.

But there are excuses. Since it was an opportunity to get rid of all six elves at once, any director of Purgatory had no choice but to wait.

It’s blurry, it looks like it’s going to rain soon. Since the world capital is a tree, does it grow well if you water it?

Yulia requested a personal interview. Just in case, it’s just nonsense asking me to show you the seed of the world tree. kicked out right away

Mana was injected into the place where the World Tree was planted. I wish I could be of any more help. I’ll have to do it every day

October 25th. flow.

Kang Min-sik, who went to the barn, hadn’t had an accident yet. Maybe it’s just waiting for the right time

What is the purpose? I guess roughly. By-products of demons and demons.

bones, teeth, sinews, scales, and bristles.

With all weapons and equipment confiscated, they thought it would be a good idea to save something.

Its purpose can be more specific.

Kang Min-sik did not pinpoint and ask to be sent to the celebration. They asked me to send them to a place other than the environmental preparation team.

It means that it doesn’t matter whether it’s a barn or a gardening class.

And there is one thing that can be obtained in common in the barn and the horticultural class.

spirits or spirits.

You have to run, it’s not in my palm.

Kang Min-sik is this easy, but Julia doesn’t know. I keep asking for personal interviews. rejected all

October 27th. gale.

Sienna questioned and listened.

Yulia ordered Soji, but why didn’t she?

When I was released from prison, I asked how I would carry possession.

But it is possible. It’s not like you can get out right away just because you’re released, because there’s usually a term of four to three days. Wouldn’t it be possible to possess it during that time?

“Aren’t you already a prisoner when you decide to leave?”

However, this question could not be answered. Indeed, an elf who has lived hundreds of years is wise.

“Still, you can do what you want, so isn’t it a win-win?”

“It’s bullshit that makes you forget what to say.”

He again threatened that he would never be released. Even if the World Tree told me to leave the prison, would I be able to stay still?

Looking forward to that day

November 1st. Maple.

All the trees in Purgatory are in autumn colors. In fact, it started to change color one by one from a month ago, but by November, almost all the trees had changed their color.

Orange, yellow, and colorful leaves. Quite spectacular.

Should I fill the entire garden with trees? The world tree standing tall in the middle is not bad because it will be more spectacular.

Suffering is what prisoners do.

Fuck, fuck, you should be cursing, but if you say you’re released from prison, it’s a business that makes money. It’s okay to put the bad guys in the punishment room.

Or making something related to the dwarves is good. Wouldn’t the dwarves have something comparable to the world tree of the elves?

If I could figure it out and use it, I’d be able to send all ten dwarves out.

Yulia requested another personal interview. I met him because I couldn’t just keep saying no. He repeated like a parrot only asking to see the seed.

I sent them out to stop talking nonsense.

November 11th. rain.

It’s Pepero Day. Feeling sentimental, he asked Soji to make Pepero.

Then this guy fried the Kraken’s leg and covered it with chocolate.

It’s a terrible hybrid.

I got angry and shoved it into his mouth, and he ate it. I took a bite and it tasted better than I expected.

The kraken itself was salty and salty, so the saltiness was good.

One thing’s for sure: Kraken tastes better than any octopus I’ve ever eaten.

Thanks to this, Werner avoided getting hit in the dust on a rainy day.

November 15th. Sunny.

A month has passed since the world tree was planted, but there is no news. I poured the elixir like that, but I couldn’t feel any mana.

there’s not something wrong

Yulia applied for an interview again. refused.

November 20th. Sunny.

Shortly thereafter, a problem arose.

The structure of purgatory is simple. A wall surrounds the building of Purgatory. The inside is a garden and the outside is different.

Outside the garden, a vast land spreads out. As if by magic, various environments that cannot coexist, such as deserts, snowfields, mountains, forests, and lakes, are spread out.

Outside, monsters abound. They are the ones who deliberately let loose and moderately control them.

It forms a natural ecosystem and serves as a secondary barrier when prisoners escape and leave the garden.

The management of the monsters is the responsibility of the prison guards, but it is said that there has been a large-scale dispute between them recently.

It’s not like it happens once or twice, but one prison guard says it seems like an irregularity has occurred.

If it’s the same, it’s the same, or if it’s not, it’s the same.

I made the guy cool. And since I’m not sure, I decided to watch a little more.

December 1st. Eye.

As soon as the calendar winter arrived, the first snow fell.

It’s not bad.

Prisoners have been very quiet lately. Why? It wasn’t like warriors to be quiet simply because they had suffered a lot from me.

In particular, Derkain, who was the most enthusiastic about the prison break, was calm, honestly like the night before the storm.

I came up with it once in a personal interview.

“I’m old and I don’t have the energy to do more.”

“Then how about getting out?”

“You mean now? What does that mean?”

“Then you have no plans to break out?”

“Of course.”

“You put saliva on your mouth and lie.”

“It’s applied.”

“You have to do well to do it. If you get caught this time, you just won’t pass. Even if I can’t do it, I will go to the 3rd punishment room for more than a week, so be prepared.”

“Because I don’t. am i dumb? Fail like that and do it again?”

There was no reliability at all.

Vigilance has risen further. Whether he knew it or not, Derkain didn’t say anything more.

Anyway, I hope it stays like this forever. After a month, I will be on vacation for the first time in a while.

The world tree still hasn’t sprouted.

December 15th. Eye.

It snowed again.

It has already been two months since the world tree was planted. But still, it still hasn’t sprouted.

Shit. He probably didn’t fall behind by overdosing on mana, just as there is a case of death even if there is too much fertilizer.

Anyway, it’s a world tree.

Kim Woo-jin moistened his dry mouth with cold iced Americano. I liked the bittersweet coffee aroma.

Snow is piled up outside the window. The setting sunset is reflected in the snow, creating a dreamy atmosphere.

At first glance it is peaceful.

At least that is the case inside the garden, which is enclosed by a wall.

“A prison guard was attacked?”

Kim Woo-jin turned over the diary. Nome was first mentioned on November 20th.

The birth of the Irregular due to large-scale conflicts between monsters, battles and predation.

There were so many monsters outside the prison, so it wasn’t such a special problem. As always, I thought it was a problem that time would solve.

However, the fact that the prison guards were beaten meant that their level was a little higher than Kim Woo-jin thought.

“What kind of guy are you?”

“This is Tarsque.”

A giant crocodile monster that lives in swamps.

It has six legs, and its thick scales are so thick that it cannot be easily penetrated even with moderate auras.

Its tusks are long and sharp, and its crocodile-like tusks are very fast on land. It is said to be a subspecies of a dragon, and has the power of breath, but poisonous mist is spewed out.

It is said that one of the prison guards went into the Tarsk family’s huge snout. It must have been digested ten times in his stomach by now.

Although they are called prison guards, they are the ones who manage Purgatory. Its power is not formidable enough to be swallowed up by Tarsk in one bite.

Even so, the fact that such a result came out means that he was truly an irregular and had power beyond expectations.

And if such a guy is not cleaned up right away, the external ecosystem that has been created at best becomes a mess.

And when the ecosystem is destroyed, the madness of those who have lost their prey is directed to the prison. I heard that there was once a long time ago.

“Do I go and take care of it?”

“No, I go myself.”

There is no big reason. The most leisurely person in Purgatory was the warden.

But it wasn’t without problems.

world tree. What if the World Tree sprouts when he goes to deal with the mutant Tarsk?

He had no reluctance to leave Yulia behind.

You cannot physically do anything while wearing the restraints. However, as you have already shown, if you are determined, you can avoid the prison guards and run away to your destination.

You don’t know what will happen if you just sweeten it. Communion between the World Tree and the high elves is not done by force.

It could be done by adding more guards, but there is always an if.

“How about taking him?”

“…that’s not bad either.”

I can roughly guess what Yulia is up to. All prisoners have a common goal of escaping, and it’s obvious what they can do with the World Tree.

But I’m not sure. There must be more things he doesn’t know about the world tree than the fragmentary things he knows.

It’s not a bad idea to take this opportunity to find out.

“Call 1178.”

After a while, Yulia came up.

“Are you finally ready to show me the seed of the mother tree?”

“I don’t even get tired of it.”

“It can’t be.”

“I am going to catch a monster. You must accompany me.”

“Why me?”

“Soji is a prisoner who does what the prison guards do.”

“understood. Do you think the director is a pretty great guy? Did a dragon come out?”

You’ll see it for yourself anyway, so there’s no reason I can’t tell you.

“It is a subspecies of dragons. Tarsk. know?”

“Maybe it’s Purgatory, so the monsters outside are not common. But isn’t it enough for the director to step out directly?”

“It became mutated through predation.”

“aha. Then the story will be different.”

Julia was easily convinced. Irregular is not a species that appears easily, but it would be more surprising than the fact that there is a prison for warriors.

“Then what exactly am I supposed to do?”

“You just have to follow along.”

“I don’t think that makes much sense.”

“Don’t question it.”

“If I catch it, can you show me the seeds?”

“Departure is tomorrow morning.”

“Seeds…”

“Take him.”

“Yes.”

Julia is gone.

Half an hour later, Werner came in with dinner.

“I want to go too.”

“Did Julia tell you?”

“I will taste the finest delicacies.”

Werner was confident.

“The Tarsk family’s outer shell is hard enough to chew on quite a few monsters. But maybe that’s why the flesh is so soft and sweet. It is one of the finest delicacies among monsters.”

However, the monster has become a mutant. Since the best product appeared on top of the best product, Werner wanted to catch it.

“no.”

But Kim Woo-jin shook his head.

There’s no reason not to take it. In other words, there is no reason to take it.

He didn’t want one more burden to worry about when he wanted to focus on the high elves.

“Ha, but…!”

“I’ll bring the corpse as best I can, so I’ll wait for you.”

“Won’t the warden lose all his flesh when he hunts!”

“Then did you keep it?”

Abandon Dokdo! Poison is life in Tarsk!

widely-

The door is closed.

Werner’s faint scream as he was dragged by the prison guards’ hands was completely blocked.

Kim Woo-jin opened the tray. The hot soup was steaming.

“Are you bringing Dokdo?”

“Should I answer?”

I unwrapped the iron and rolled up the rice.

It tasted better than any soup I had on earth.
