Seeing his subordinates being severely injured, the Gold-level Treant advanced forward.
Seeing the figure of Jotaro who was ready to fight at any time, the creature felt angry. A thick arm as strong as steel instantly swung at incredible speed.
A BANG!
Jotaro's figure immediately fell backwards a few meters. The reason why he was able to survive whereas Arthur was not because of the readiness of the two of them. Jotaro is ready to take a hit, while Arthur is very relaxed not even having the thought to attack or defend.
Just then, the voice of the old man filled with anger sounded.
“Man ... corrupting nature, relentless hunting, destructing balance. Man ... must be annihilated!”
A hand with five sharp claws instantly shot towards Jotaro. At the moment the man was about to dodge, a black shadow shot out as fast as lightning.
“THUNDER!”
CRASHES!
In front of the shocked gazes of Jotaro and the Treants, Arthur's figure landed lightly. Just then, the hands of the Treant elder were instantly severed. They all immediately turned their heads towards the young man who was shouldering a gigantic black axe. Even Jotaro, who had been with Arthur for a long time, had never seen the weapons he was carrying.
“I guessed it. Behind the bark, the inside does have an amazing aroma.”
Arthur grinned. He carried the axe on his right shoulder while stroking his chin with his left hand. The young man stared at the Treants with a full gaze ‘kaya’. Can't really turn away, let alone let them go.
“Gosh ... Why are you all stunned? Also, why did you take your shirt off, Joe? That would have had a devastating impact on Lily's development. You should be ashamed!”
“...”
The atmosphere is still so quiet. Looking at the Treants who looked scared, but did not cover the hateful expressions on their faces, Arthur shrugged.
“It doesn't really matter. Than just silence ..” Arthur pointed towards the Treants with a giant axe in his hand. “How about we continue cutting down the tree?”
Before Arthur made a move, Lily's figure walked towards him. The girl then grabbed her clothes and pulled them a few times.
“Arthur, Arthur ... The Tri-trees said that man is evil?” Lily looked at the young man with a puzzled expression.
“Hah? Evil humans? Isn't that certain?”
Arthur tilted his head. Looking towards the puzzled Lily, he began to explain.
“Although not all are evil, but many humans are like that. Destroying something for profit, for their own benefit. In fact, sometimes I unknowingly do such a thing.
Even so, it can still be arranged. For example, today many humans still like to damage the forest and do a massive hunt. Trees in the forest can actually be used, but we also have to know which trees can be cut down. In addition, if doing large-scale logging, it is better to do replanting.
As for the animals, it was rather difficult. Most easily, make a ban on hunting some animals that are already rare. For animals that are not rare, only adult animals can be hunted. The young, and pregnant females must be abandoned so they can continue to thrive.
It is not that humans cannot hunt animals or cut down trees. Cats can call rats, why can't humans hunt? Is it not common for fellow living beings to prey on each other. But as humans, we also have thoughts.
We can do something, but not too much. Because anything excessive is not at all good.”
Arthur spoke with a solemn expression, completely like a teacher teaching his student. At that time, he only realized that Jotaro and the Treants were staring at him. Noticing something, the young man immediately kept his axe and walked towards the Treants with a friendly smile on his face.
“Did the humans in this place start overhunting and burning the forest? Do you feel that your house, your place is threatened with damage? Are you confused what to do for fear of strong cultivators coming to exterminate you when you only want to protect the house?”
“I-That's right,” replied Elder Treant who looked doubtful when he saw his hand cut off.
Lily tilted her head with a confused expression. While the corner of Jotaro's lips twitched violently. The man felt that Arthur really looked like a trader in the market who was doing promos, even a little similar to a con artist.
“Then you meet the right people.
At first, I thought you guys were bad for killing people and attacking me. So, I'm sorry if I treated you guys a little harshly. By the way, my name is Arthur. In my opinion, there is a right solution for all of you, which is to move.”
“Even if we want to move, where should we go, Man? It is difficult to find a suitable place to live. In addition, some suitable places in the interior is impossible to achieve because there are many powerful creatures that threaten our existence there.”
“Ck ck ck .. that's why I said you guys were lucky to meet me.”
Seeing the Treants looking at him with suspicious expressions, Arthur pretended to cough. He then took the hands of the broken Treant elder while saying.
“I'll ask for this in order to trick people.
Joe, take this back to the village. Report that noble children died from Treant's attack. While the Treant ... was successfully cleared. Uh! You also come with Jotaro first, Lily.”
Although confused when he heard Arthur's words, Jotaro still nodded heavily. Meanwhile, Lily appears reluctant to part with Arthur. After being persuaded for a while, the girl was finally willing to leave.
After they left, Arthur then sat on the ground right in front of the Treants.
“Actually I have a place where you can stay. It depends on whether you want to move or not. The thing is, this is a big secret. So there are only two options after you see that place.
Stay obedient, or die. Of course, if you don't want to move, you can leave this place. I suggest to go to another location because another cultivator might not be as good as me.”
After hesitating for quite a while, elder Treant finally said.
“What ... Are you sure that place is suitable for us, Man?”
“Although it is rather narrow, I swear that the place may be the most suitable and safe place for the growth of all of you.”
Arthur said with a tone of confidence. Just then, elder Treant finally said.
“Then I'll try to trust you, man. However, if you trap us. We will not hesitate to fight it out to death against you.”
“Let's just relax, I'm not that kind of liar. Then give me your hand.”
Sensing a hint of hesitation, the Treant elder finally grabbed Arthur's hand with his left. Just then, he felt the world shake, and the voice of the young man sounded.
“Quiet and don't fight. We'll be here soon.”
Instantly, the scene suddenly turned into a land filled with various plants including vegetables and fruit trees. Just then, the Treant elder sensed the extremely rich earth energy, water energy, and wind energy in that place.
“Not too wide. But this place is suitable for you to live in, right?”
“This ... where?”
“You could say, this is my Demiplane. You can stay here comfortably. Instead, I have a request.”
“Do not try to ask for excessive things, Man!”
“Let's relax, I just want you to take good care of the plants and chickens that are here. I see, your roots can make the soil more loose and fertile, right?
Besides, I want to do branch pruning on you every month. According to research, pruning excessive branches on trees can make the tree fertile. So, I think that technique is perfect for you guys.
Not only did I help you, but I helped you too. Isn't this kind of peaceful choice better?”
Looking towards Arthur who had a smile on his face, elder Treant felt touched. He had never seen such a good person to the Treant race like them. He felt that following Arthur was the best choice for his family.
Of course, elder Treant did not know. In Arthur's eyes, they were a valuable collection. Not only will he get a free worker to take care of his garden and farm, he will also get good quality wood for roasting every month.
Not like killing to get in a fixed amount. If the Treants live in his Demiplane ...
That meant he had unlimited wood stock!
Just thinking about that made the smile on Arthur's face become even brighter. Truly willing to accept the Treants who are afraid of losing their homes with a spacious chest.
