"Is the time of separation finally coming?" Leaning against the wall outside the ceremony, Catherine's gaze was as soft as water, watching Pannis's footsteps calmly walk towards this side, and sighed softly: "Although I have been mentally prepared for this for a long time, but when this moment comes, I always feel full of unreal feelings, phew, I really hope that this day will come later." Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 How's it going, Pannis, are you ready? Is there anything you'd like to tell us?"

"There are some things that need to be told first. Pannis stopped in front of the maidens, took out a small cloth bag from his close-fitting pocket, hesitated for a moment, and then handed it to Catherine and said: "You take this with you, if I don't come out alive, you have to remember, put this thing in the hands of Vrard, and by the way, tell her for me, don't take out this kind of thing casually in the future." ”

"If? It looks like you haven't made a decision yet. Catherine sighed, took the cloth bag and played with it in her hand, and said, "What is in this, it needs to be explained so solemnly." ”

"It's not the kind of reason you think, it's just that there will always be casualties in battle, and no one is an exception, so you have to prepare for the rest in advance. Pannis pointed to the sack in Catherine's hand and said, "Here are a few seeds, you must keep them close to you, and never leave them until they are returned to Vrard." ”

"So important?" Catherine said resisting the urge to open the bag and take a look, "If it's such an important thing, wouldn't it be more appropriate to give it to Vivien and Freya? ”

"No, it must be placed on your body until it is in the hands of Vral. Pannis insisted: "It doesn't make sense to put it on them. ”

"No point?" Catherine hesitated and looked at the cloth bag in her hand again, although it was obvious that she could not see the contents through the cloth bag, but the girl still turned the cloth bag over and over in her hand for a while, and finally could only ask Pannis: "What is in this, you would say that it makes no sense, it must be something that will have an effect, what will be the effect?"

"Actually, you can just put it on, you don't need to know what it is. Pannis sighed and said, "But it's okay to tell you, lest you inadvertently let the other elves see that there are actually only four seeds in it, and one of them is special, well, very troublesome." This seed, as the elves call it, is translated into lingua franca...... Seeds of the First Tree. ”

"Oh, the seed of the First Tree. The girls did not realize the meaning of the name for a moment, but after a few seconds, Lina's face suddenly changed, and she let out a low roar from her mouth, as if she had lost her mind, and took a few steps forward to grab Pannis's neckline, pulled his face in front of her, lowered her voice and roared in an almost crazy manner: "How can you have such a thing, say, where did you steal it?" ”

"Well, so I don't want to say what the hell this is. Pannis scratched his head with a wry smile, and said helplessly: "Tifa, Tifa, Ms. Tifa, please calm down, you see, I know that you are also in Lina's body, and you will still say this name, no matter how you think about it, it can't be stolen." ”

"Oh, God. It was only then that the maidens realized what this name, which Pannis described as particularly troublesome, meant that it was the half-body of the legendary forest goddess Yggdrasil, the seed of the first plant in the world of Yara, and in a sense, could even be considered the heir of Yggdrasil. Before that, the girls hadn't even heard of the existence of such a thing as the First Tree, or the World Tree, which shows how much importance the elves attach to the tree species, so much so that even the news of their existence is sealed off from outsiders, and the importance can also be seen from the performance of Tifa, who was originally an elf.

"Do you want to tell me that you picked it up on the road?" Tifa, who controlled Lina's body, did not believe Pennis's words, and roared, "The seeds of the World Tree only mature once in thousands of years, and until now we have only five of them, and only the Goddess's agent in the mortal world is qualified to touch it, if not steal it...... Wait, the new queen's little one, damn it, she gave it to you, bastard, I'm going to accuse the goddess of her crimes. ”

"She's so kind to you. Catherine let out a strange sigh with a smile, but immediately took Tifa's arm in a rage and said, "Lady Tifa, don't worry, didn't Your Majesty Vral even lend the hunting arrow through the Council of Elders, and this seed must have been lent to Penis with the approval of the Council of Elders, which is not a crime." ”

"You don't understand what the World Tree seed means. Tifa finally calmed down a little, let go of Pannis's collar and shook off Catherine's hand, and said angrily: "The Hunting Arrow is only the creation of Lord Artemis, but the seed of the World Tree, which is the continuation of Lord Yggdrasil's body, is a blasphemy against the Goddess, how can the two things be compared with each other." ”

"Look, I'll just say it's very troublesome. Pannis stretched out his hands to Catherine, making a helpless expression, and seeing that Tifa was about to have a violent tendency, he could only smile bitterly and soothe: "Ms. Tifa, have you forgotten one thing?" Indeed, the species of the First Tree is seen as a continuation of Lord Yggdrahir's divine body, and I am well aware of this. However, if I'm not mistaken, the conditions for a tree species to work are much harsher than hunting arrows. ”

"......" Lina, who was controlled by Tifa, suddenly lowered her head and was silent, under the suspicious gaze of several girls around her, she raised her head sharply after a while, looked at everyone with the same confusion and asked: "What's wrong, why are you staring at me so suddenly, what did that guy Tifa do? Just now she suddenly wanted to come out like crazy, I didn't even have time to tell you to let her come out, must have not done anything good." ”

"This madman......" said Pannis, gritting his teeth and tugging at his crumpled collar, "I found myself like an idiot, and I ran away without saying a word." ”

"Uh, Pennis, explain. Catherine rubbed the corners of her forehead with a headache, feeling that the sadness of parting just now could not be found again, so she could only ask while mourning the disappearance of the mourner: "Why did she run away suddenly?"

"I said yes, because she found herself like an idiot. Pannis shrugged and said, "How can this kind of thing be used by others casually." ”
