The Main Heroine Likes the Extra

79 – New World Tree.

“Huh…? Huh?? Who…Who is he?”

I hear Riel’s voice from the side, looking very flustered.

On the other hand, maybe it’s because I feel this situation closer than anyone else, my head is calm.

A baby who seems to be about a month old rather than a newborn baby.

Her light green hair was spread out long, and her tiny limbs were curled up and gasping.

…No ordinary baby.

Your hair is long enough to cover your entire body, but where is a baby at this age with such long hair?

Carefully, I raised my arm and grabbed the baby’s body.

Relax and carefully, let’s try to lift it like that…

“Ugh…”

“Suck?!”

What is it?

Why is he so strong?

The moment it falls off my body, I hold my hand that was holding my body tightly with that fern-like hand, and it hurts terribly.

“Ooh?”

“Oops.”

Then, my eyes popped open.

Bright red eyes reminiscent of Riel stared at me blankly.

“……”

“Uh…That’s…Uhh…”

What should I do?

This is my first time dealing with a baby.

I have younger siblings, but when they were babies, I was a year old too.

I don’t even remember when I was possessed after that, when I was 4 years old or so.

“Oh…Hello?”

“……”

First of all, I smiled as much as I could and said hello.

I’m still a baby, so I don’t know if the greeting will work, but I’ll try anything.

“Uhhh…”

Fortunately, he doesn’t seem to be crying.

A baby who didn’t cry, but looked around with a dissatisfied expression.

“Ooh?”

The little head moved around and looked straight at Riel, who had been quietly watching the situation.

For a moment, the baby laughed.

“Ooh!! Ooh!!”

“Huh? Huh? What… What?!”

A baby stretching her arms towards Riel while laughing.

She says she’s never dealt with a baby, but that’s enough to know what he wants.

“…Riel, he seems to want to go to you.”

“Huh? To me? Why??”

“That…Well, it’s not that I can’t guess.”

I’m not blind either.

A room with no signs of someone breaking into it.

A young baby suddenly appeared.

And the seed of the world tree that Riel kept from her body, but disappeared.

It’s just that there’s not enough grounds for certainty.

I thought about what to do at a time like this, but the answer came right away.

Isn’t Mr. Leelu, the guardian of the world tree, living in this mansion?

“Riel, take care of me for a second.”

“Uh…Uhh?!”

When she held out her baby, Riel panicked and accepted it.

The baby also fell away from me without any resistance and was embraced by Riel.

“Wow! Kyaa!!”

“What?! What is this guy?! He’s super strong!”

The baby held by Riel happily smiled and hugged Riel further.

“I’ll call Mr. Leelu for a second. If my guess is correct, I should call Mr. Leelu…”

“Excuse me, young master.”

The moment I put on my coat over to leave the room, the door opened and someone came in.

That is none other than Phyllis. Luca, Riel’s exclusive servant, was also standing behind him.

Yes, it’s time to wake up soon.

“To help get things ready before breakfast begins…”

“Kyaa!! Kyaa!!”

“……”

After continuing her conversation, Phyllis looked at me standing in front of the door and Riel holding a baby behind him.

And then, he stopped talking and stood firm on the spot.

“Huh? Huh huh?”

As if Luca, who was behind him, was also taken aback, she trembled as she stood there.

No, let’s not panic.

It’s not anyone else, it’s Phyllis. She is Phyllis, who always looked at the situation calmly and dealt with it. She

She believes that in this position, she will somehow understand the situation, and she will calmly deal with it.

“…Uh…When…? No…I thought it was just a matter of time…But… I’ve always been protecting the two of you, what a mistake…”

“Phyllis?”

No, I can’t.

The Phillies are also confused.

I somehow calmed Phyllis on the spot and explained her situation.

Since Phyllis and Luca came, there was no reason for me to go and call Lilu, and Luca took the initiative and ran to call Lilu.

“……”

“Uh…Uh…”

The baby fell asleep in Riel’s arms, snoring lightly again with a relaxed look on her face.

Although she is embarrassed by the baby, Riel naturally pats the baby’s back while holding her tightly in her arms.

Hmm… It looks like it’s becoming a painting.

“…So, what the hell is that baby?”

“I have a guess, but there is no evidence to be sure…Moreover, why did Phyllis misunderstand?”

“I have no face. To be honest, she looks very much like the young lady Riel.”

Is that so?

If you think about it that way, her eyes are the same color as Riel’s, and even though she’s still a baby, the shapes of her face here and there seem oddly similar…

“I brought you!”

“Excuse me, what the hell is going on?”

Mr. Leelu arrived quickly.

Luka seems to be running with all her strength, and is catching her breath.

“Mr. Leelu, please look over there for a second.”

“What the…Um?”

Rilou-san followed my finger and stopped at the baby Riel was holding.

Mr. Leelu moves slowly with a dazed expression and approaches Riel.

I put his face close to the baby, looked straight at him, and even touched his head.

“Ugh?”

“Hmm.”

Perhaps it felt a strange presence, the sleeping baby woke up again.

Those red eyes looked straight at Mr. Leelu.

“Kyaa!!”

“…Mmm.”

A baby who sees Mr. Lilu and reaches out his hand to touch his face.

After briefly pulling Lilu’s cheeks a few times, he smiled happily.

…When he looked at me, he had a dissatisfied expression on his face, but this unknown sense of defeat.

Mr. Leelu leaves the baby to do what he wants for a while, but returns when the baby loses interest and goes back to Riel’s arms.

“What do you think?”

“…Surely.”

Mr. Leelu nodded his head.

“It’s a little different from what I remembered, but it’s unmistakable. He’s definitely the new World Tree.”

“…Hmm, they said it was the seed of the world tree, so I thought of something like a gravestone.”

“When they grow a bit more, they will plant the seedlings directly in the place they want.”

Is that so?

Anyway, as expected, that baby seemed to have been born from the seed of the World Tree that Riel had.

As if she had heard our story, Riel also looked at the baby in her arms with a surprised expression.

“Are you really a world tree?”

“Ugh?”

I try to ask the baby in my arms a question, but it only responds like a normal baby.

She rather reached out and pulled Riel’s hair.

“Ouch! He’s really strong!!”

“Kyaaa! Kyaaa!!”

Fortunately, as the world tree Yggdrasil had arranged, a new world tree was born.

It’s different from what I imagined, but in any case, I wonder if it can prevent the world from running out of mana.

“Ouch! Hey, don’t do this!! It really hurts!”

“Kyaa!! Kyaa!”

“……”

First of all, one of the problems I was worried about was half-solved.

Thought so, I ran towards Riel to help her.

“……”

Forest of the World Tree.

There, Saint Velia was asleep as if she were dead.

The power of the World Tree within you is running out day by day.

No matter how vast the stolen power is, if you use it little by little for a long time, it will be depleted.

After all, Velia had to conserve that power, spending most of her time asleep.

Then, she suddenly opened her eyes.

“World Tree-sama…?”

I definitely felt the power of Yggdrasil, the world tree.

No, it seemed to have a slightly different feel, but the essence is the same world tree power.

“Where the hell…? Why can’t I find it?”

I felt an explosive force, even for a brief moment, but I couldn’t detect it as if I was blocked by something.

“…Is that a jewel that the girl has? But there’s no way I can feel that much power from that jewel…”

A jewel of the World Tree owned by a priestess named Alicia Melotra.

The power of the World Tree contained in that gem is extremely small.

Even so, since it was the power left by Yggdrasil, the World Tree, Velia thought that she would definitely steal it and retrieve it.

However, even that task was fraught with difficulties.

With Alicia Merlot receiving the protection of the duke of the kingdom, the church could not touch her hastily.

So she ordered a church official to put in an assassination request to the elven mercenaries in the empire, but even that failed.

And in the failed elf mercenary corps, the request was rejected after that because they could not take on the failed request again.

In addition, what went wrong in the process, and the empire, which can be said to be the largest of the neighboring countries, suddenly began to distance itself from the church.

Even if I tried to use fairies, these days, the fairies didn’t listen to me.

It was because more than half of the fairies in the kingdom were attacked and disappeared.

The surviving fairies said that an arrow flew from somewhere and shot them dead.

Because of that, the other fairies are also in a situation where they are frightened and do not listen to her words.

The culprit could have been known without guessing. It must be the elf girl who disturbed her in this forest.

‘It feels like we met somewhere…But I can’t remember, so it’s not an important b*tch.’

Right now, Velia was in a situation where neither Alicia Merlot nor Riel Ignis could touch her.

A situation where one has to conserve one’s strength because one’s strength is almost exhausted, and even those one can control are no help.

If there’s one card that’s worth using, it’s probably the clown that the church retrieved.

He imbued him with considerable strength.

Unexpectedly, the other power that he bestowed upon him, different from the blessing of the World Tree, he adapted to him very well.

His head is also stupid, so it’s good to pamper him.

But if there is a problem, it is that his skill itself is not very good.

So, it took time.

The power he gave to this clown bloomed and he became stronger.

If that’s the case, it’s time to use this strengthened idiot and destroy it from the front.

No kingdoms, no empires, all that stand in your way.
