Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure

”Alright, if there’s nothing else that you need from me...” I said as if I was putting an end to this. I had even started standing up as I said this.

I didn’t want to remain in this room with this high elf any longer since I still had no idea what they wanted.

Even if Vivrum was the one that had mediated this connection to the Elven Kingdom, there was still the problem of what had happened before.

If they found out what I did...then there was no doubt that the Elven Kingdom would want some kind of revenge. So I wanted to spend as little time as possible with this high elf from the Elven Kingdom.

Only before I could leave...

”Actually, there is something else.” The high elf suddenly spoke.

When I heard this, I immediately slightly knitted my brows.

But when I turned around, there was a calm look on my face as I looked at the high elf and asked, ”What else is there?”

The high elf raised the branch that they had been holding before and said, ”This is for you.” I was surprised since I hadn’t expected the high elf to give me this.

As soon as this branch had been taken out, I knew that it was a branch from the Tree of Life.

The Tree of Life was something that the elves worshipped, so there was no doubt that everything that came from the Tree of Life would be valuable to them. Especially a branch like this that even Vivrum had connected with to appear in the mortal world like this.

This would certainly be a very special branch from the Tree of Life.

I didn’t reach out to take the branch from the high elf, but they didn’t seem to mind as they just held it up in front of them, as if they were waiting for me to take it.

I just looked right at them without saying anything or moving a muscle.

There was a silence that lingered in the air.

That silence was finally broken by Vivrum who said, ”Just take it already. You don’t have to be suspicious, this is my relic, so take it.”

I was caught off guard by this, but I still didn’t take it right away as I said, ”Why are you giving this to me though? Wouldn’t it be better to leave it with the elves so they can use it against the demons?”

The high elf was the one that answered this time.

”If all that we had to rely on to resist the demons was this relic alone, then you would be looking down on us elves too much. Our race has been around since the dawn of time for a reason, our resources are much greater than you think.”

There was this strange pride that was in the high elf’s voice when they said this, but this was normal for an elf.

After another silence, I slowly reached out and took the branch from the high elf’s hand.

When I did, Vivrum said, ”Think about what form you want this branch to take and it’ll take it.”

I was surprised to hear this, but then the branch in my hand started to glow as I did what Vivrum told me to do.

After glowing for a bit, the bench started to change shape.

In no time at all, the branch took the shape of a wand.

Since it was a branch, the first thing that I thought of was a wand or a staff. Only I already had the Staff of Earth, so the only thing that I could think of was a wand.

After it took the form of a wand, Vivrum said, ”Just use a bit of mana and you’ll see what it can do.”

A trace of bitterness filled me when I heard this.

Part of it was because I already knew what she was telling me since this was how all relics worked.

But the main part of it was because of the Staff of Earth.

Holding this wand in my hand, I couldn’t help thinking of the Staff of Earth and how much mana it took. That Staff of Earth had a terrible mileage and would drain mana like no one’s business.

This branch was a relic just like the Staff of Earth, so it felt like it would be the same.

But with Vivrum watching...

So in the end, I started sending my mana into the branch wand in my hand.

The moment that I did, I could feel the draining sensation that came from it.

It was like the feeling that I got from the Staff of Earth, but at least it seemed more gentle than the Staff of Earth. Though that didn’t mean that it didn’t use a similar amount of mana.

After the branch absorbed my mana, it started to glow.

Though it didn’t seem like it was about to do anything.

That was until the ground under me started to move.

I looked down and found that there was something growing out of the ground. Or it was better

to say that there was something growing from the tree that this tree house was made from.

As expected from a relic that came from Vivrum.

The effect that this branch had was to affect the growth of things.

While I didn’t know what the limits of this relic was, I could already think of ways that it would be useful.

But the most useful effect that this branch had was its ability to allow Vivrum to contact me.

”I can’t do it again. It takes a lot of energy to contact the mortal world and it’s not something that gods are supposed to do. It’s only because of the prophecy this time that I was able to do this. I won’t be able to do it again.”

Vivrum’s voice cut through my thoughts to pour cold water on this thought.

I had already expected this to a certain extent, but I had been hoping that it wasn’t the case.

Still, at least this was another relic and it was from the race that I thought would be the hardest to obtain it from.
