I am a very ferocious Tree!

Rawr!

Tree power!

Yes well…

I’m losing at the moment…

Tsk, after devouring those delicious Dark Divinities, I moved Mishra and S’neli out from the leaf I hid them inside.

That’s where the trouble started!

How could a mere half-hour upgrade S’neli so much?

Her stare is now at the next level.

I admit.

I got outstared.

“CONFESS!” S’neli said, pointing a finger at me authoritatively.

I was in bent-trunk-kneeling position to admit my wrongs better.

“Now, now. It’s not like Master plotted this from the very beginning…” Mishra said.

Good save! I knew I could depend on you, my beloved servant!

“He probably plotted it minutes after meeting you…”

Et Tu, Mishra?!

“Start from the top, and explain it!” S’neli said, her expression cross.

So, I spent the next few hours explaining things.

Lots of things.

Then, of course, upon finding the world was about to end, in roughly a century or less…

“So, can you save my family?”

No concern over the rest of the planet, not my Chaos Alchemist!

I waved my branches signaling no, of course I can’t.

“Good, as long as you save my family, including that bratty brother, I’ll stick with you.” S’neli nodded at my gesturing.

...

…

…

Tsk…who got me into this mess, again?
