In order to bring the scum tree to its senses after being devoured by the cursed weapon, Celia and I used our combat skills to enter the inner world of the tree.

"Hahaha, do you still want to be a hero like that?"

"Don't Dream Tree"

…………

"Tree, did you fail the exam again? Really, when can you make your mother proud. ”

…………

"What, tree, is that all the money? Lie to your mother tomorrow and get a little more money out. ”

…………

"I want to help people get ahead! Idiot tree, rubbish just get out of the way!! ”

"Hahaha, I don't have the ability to help people get ahead, the tree is really an idiot!!"

"Come, everyone, surround him, and invite our hero to a drink!!"

"Hahaha!!"

"What a fool the tree!"

"Big stupid tree! Hahaha!! ”

…………

In the gray and depressed inner world, there are many scenes of the tree's past memories, some are ridiculed, some are disappointed by their parents, and there are scenes of heroes being and bullied.

These are all bad memories.

But I liked the look on the tree's face, despair, unwillingness, chagrin, and shame.

It really piqued my interest.

"I like this"

I pointed to the scene where someone was peeing and bullying on the tree and said to Celia.

"Mr. Ghost!!"

Celia glared at me angrily.

"Yes, yes, I know, just kidding."

I replied with my ears pinched.

Celia's voice was so loud that she felt like her eardrums were about to burst.

"It's really pitiful that I didn't think that Lord Tree had such a past."

Seeing such a scene, Celia felt uncomfortable for what happened to the tree, and she couldn't help but shed tears again.

Hey~, I can't stand Celia, what's there to cry about.

At this moment, the shield in my hand and the seven-star weapon in Celia's hand turned into two balls of light, as if to guide us forward and to a certain place.

Following the orb of light, Celia and I came to a dark red gate that stood out of thin air.

The color of the door is not very pleasant, and the frame of the door is still full of black and red curses.

The ball of light led us to this place and dissipated, not returning to its shield and dagger form.

Looks like this is the destination, and I feel the black ominous gate.

Unlike the memory scene just now, this door has a texture.

While I was still thinking about what to do, the door slowly opened.

After hesitating in front of the door for a moment, I said to Celia, "Let's go, Celia." ”

"Ah, yes."

Celia and I walked through the door.

Then the first scene I saw turned out to be a tree fighting a huge demon dragon in the air.

"Demon Dragon!! I won't let you ruin the world again!!! ”

The tree shoots arrows at the dragon.

"Ah~~, great savior, please save us innocent people."

A large crowd of villager-like people bowed down on the ground.

"Ah~~, damn it~~, it's really worthy of the savior Kawasumi ~"

With a terrible howl, the huge demon dragon collapsed to the ground, and before dying, he did not forget to praise the tree.

"Whew~, it's finally over."

The tree pretended to breathe a sigh of relief.

"Everyone's okay~"

"Ah~~, thank you very much, Tree-sama's life-saving grace"

"I'm so thankful, I really don't know what to do if there were no tree adults in this world."

"In other words, Lord Tree is the savior of this world!"

The villagers fenced off the tree and praised it constantly.

The tree enjoys the feeling of being complimented.

It seems that the trees have not yet discovered our existence, and I took a look at the surrounding environment, which is different from the gray and oppressive feeling when I first entered, and the bright and beautiful rural environment here gives people a sense of happiness and comfort.

"Mr. Ghost, what the hell is this~"

Celia looked at me at no avail.

"I see, I see"

"Celia"

I shouted for Celia, and then twisted Celia's face hard.

"Mr. Ghost? Yes! It hurts, Mr. Ghost, what are you doing? ”

Celia took my hand away and looked at me aggrievedly.

"Celia, does it hurt?"

"Do you need to talk about that? It hurts to say. ”

"Celia, my attack power is low, you shouldn't feel pain, right?"

"Huh?! yes. ”

Celia looked at me with a sudden realization.

"Mr. Ghost, what the hell is going on?"

"I'll explain to you later, I'll go say hello to the tree first."

A demonic grin crossed my face.

The ball of light didn't turn back into a shield, which means that the shield spirit has removed my status as a hero, so I am no longer limited by weapons and can attack as much as I want.

So~.

I ran to the tree in the crowd and kicked it in the head.

"Ghosts? Wizard!! ”

By the time the tree reacted, my foot had already hit the tree's front door.

"Yo, Scum Tree"

I said to the tree I had kicked to the ground.

"Is there enough sex here? If that's enough, it's time to get up. ”

"Ahem~, you bastard!! What to do all of a sudden? ”

"It's nothing, I just want to wake you up."

As I kicked the tree away, the crowd around me dissipated, and sure enough, everything here was the inner world of the tree.

"In order to escape the cruelty of reality, it is really sad to close yourself off and create a world of self-satisfaction in your heart."

"Genius! What nonsense are you talking about? What a fictional world!! ”

The tree glared at me fiercely, wasn't it awake yet? I also think of the fictional world here as reality.

"It seems that the bow elf is afraid that you will have a nervous breakdown and seal off part of your memory. In that case, there is no way. ”

I grabbed the tree by the hair and dragged it to the gate.

"Mr. Ghost, what the hell is this~"

"Be quiet, Celia."

I motioned for Celia to shut up for now.

"What for! Hell, let me go!! ”

The tree is constantly resisting and struggling.

"Tree, you know what? I like to see the person I hate the most, with a look of despair and anger. ”

I brought the tree to the gate and smiled coldly at the tree.

"Tear it up with all your might, and then come and please me."

With that, I threw the tree out of the gate.

"Ah!!!h

At the moment when he threw out the gate, the tree shouted hysterically, and all the memories that Celia and I had seen were instilled back into the tree's mind by Johnson & Johnson.

"Arrogance gives sarcasm, anger gives repression, and jealousy gives unwillingness."

"Full of ideals, the cruelty of reality, the tree should feel this depression and unwillingness."

The space around it began to crumble gradually.

"Genius !!"

Beaten back to the tree of cruel memory, hysterically shouting my name.

"Why do you want to do this to me!! Why do you humiliate me like this again and again!! ”

The tree, crying and shouting, clenched its fists and questioned me.

"Because it's fun."
