Chapter 238

"Mr. Leon... Is that really you ? Wait... It has to be you since illusion magics don’t work on me." Rees spoke as he immediately walked closer to Leon.

"How do I believe that you aren’t an illusion ?" Leon asked with a serious expression as he immediately pulled out the Nyxter and pointed it towards Rees.

’System... Turn off Rees’ necroheart.’ Leon ordered in his mind.

’Yes.’ Leon ordered.

"Oh, I am one hundred percent real. Ask me anything you-" Before Rees could’ve completed his sentence, he felt something odd in his body.

"What happened ?" Leon asked with a confused expression.

"I think... I think that my necroheart stopped working." Rees spoke as he immediately took off the robe and noticed that his necroheart wasn’t glowing.

"How is that possible ? The necroheart should be absorbing mana from my bones and it shouldn’t stop working." Rees spoke as he continued to stare at the necroheart.

’Restart the Necroheart, System.’ Leon spoke.

As soon as Leon saw this notification he immediately placed the Nyxter back into his inventory and started walking towards Rees.

"It must’ve run out of mana... Here, I will supply some more." Leon spoke as he took the necroheart from his hand and supplied mana to it.

As soon as he supplied mana to the necroheart, it started glowing green once again.

"Oh... It’s working again. But how ? It shouldn’t behave like this." Rees spoke as he continued to stare at the necroheart.

"Just put it back into your chest, Rees. I don’t have time to do this right now... But, I am very interested in knowing, what the fuck are you doing here ?" Leon asked with a neutral expression.

"Oh... Mr. Leon, you remember that friend I told you about in the dungeon who needed my help ?" Rees asked.

"Yeah." Leon replied with a neutral expression.

"That’s her... Medina. The fairy mother and the caretaker of the Tree of Life." Rees replied as he he pointed towards Medina.

"You are friends with a fucking Demi-God ?" Leon asked with a shocked expression.

"She likes dead humans with wisdom. What can I say ?" Rees replied as he looked at Leon.

"Yeah, both of you should get married." Leon replied with a smile as he turned around and noticed that Medina is slowly opening her eyes.

"Hey... I brought the soul stones and your brother is captured by the parasite. What should I do now ?" Leon asked with a confused expression.

"I-I can’t thank you enough... Mr. Leon. Y-You have done something that I couldn’t expect from any normal human. You have earned my respect." Medina spoke in a very low voice as she looked at Leon.

’Holy shit... That’s an overpowered title to have.’ Leon thought with a serious and shocked expression.

"Rees... You are here as well. Thank God... I never thought you will reply to my call." Medina spoke as she looked at Rees.

"You have helped me in a very tough time Medina and we promised each other to come whenever the time comes.

I have honoured my promise. But I don’t understand, why the tree of life is strangled by such an inferior demonic Parasite ?

Why aren’t your children destroying this ting ?" Rees asked with a confused expression.

"My brother... He betrayed me." Medina spoke with a sad expression.

"Okay, you are too slow. Rees... Her brother Orion betrayed her and stole the soul stones of her children.

He then used the parasite to control them but now he is being consumed by the Parasite because he couldn’t control it. Now... What do I have to do with these soul stones ? There are ladies waiting for me in the village." Leon spoke with a serious expression.

"You will need the fruit of the tree and soak the stones in it’s juice then you have to plant them forcefully inside one of my children." Medina explained as she looked at Leon.

"What Fruit ?" Leon asked with a confused expression as he looked up and noticed some blue coloured fruits hanging on it’s branches.

"I think she is talking about the blue ones, Mr. Leon." Rees spoke as he pointed towards them.

"I see them Rees." Leon replied as he looked at him.

"You have to climb up and get it." Medina replied.

"If I stepped on that parasite’s vines... I will be like your brother and I really don’t want to give blowjob to a fucking parasite for the rest of my life.

Can’t you just get the tree to drop one of them ? I will catch it." Leon asked with a serious expression.

"I can’t... I-I am sorry, Mr. Leon." Medina replied with a sad expression.

"Fine... Time to test out new skill then." Leon spoke as he activated his skill.

As soon as these notifications started popping in front of Leon, a smile appeared over his face.

"Have you started the casting, Mr. Leon ?" Rees asked with a confused expression.

"Yes... Wait for a bit." Leon replied as he started jumping up and down.

’I can feel it... My body weight is reducing. If I added wind magic to it... I will be able to fly easily.

I can manipulate my body with wind magic, although I have to keep applying pressure from above or I will just float away into the space.’ Leon thought with a serious expression as he kept jumping up and down and everytime he jumped, his jumping height increased.

"Umm... Mr. Leon ? May I ask what are you doing ?" Rees asked with a confused expression.

"I am trying to jump to that fruit." Leon replied with a neutral expression.

"B-But... How can that be possible ? You can’t just keep jumping and expect to reach-" Before Rees could’ve completed his sentence he noticed that Leon’s jumping height was increasing with every passing second, even though it was increasing very slowly but it was noticeable.

’How is that possible ? He didn’t even chant for a skill. Is he even using a skill to do that ? A gravity skill ?

But, that’s a rare magic only a few monsters know it. How can a human use gravity magic ?’ Rees thought as he continued to stare at Leon.

One minute passed and Leon was now jumping High enough to reach the trees branch.

"Just a little bit more..." Leon spoke in a low voice as he tried to grab the branch but it slipped away from his hand.

*Thud*

"Hup..." Without wasting another second, he jumped up once again.

"Here I come." Leon spoke as he grabbed the branch this time.

*Grab*

"Where are your children, Medina ?" Rees asked as he looked at her.

"The Parasite... It sends them to hunt for food around this time." Medina replied in a weak voice as black veins started popping on her face.

"The Parasite is trying to devour you." Rees spoke as he stepped forward but since he was already dead, the parasite didn’t react to his presence.

Rees slowly raised his hand and placed on her cheek.

"R-Rees, I-I want you to do the crown ceremony for Kiren." Medina spoke with a serious expression as she looked at him.

"What are you saying ? We will save you. I believe in Mr. Leon... He can definitely save you." Rees spoke as he looked at Medina.

"Haha... He is just a man child, Rees. You are a wise scholar, the Parasite has grown too strong to be defeated at this point.

Once I pass the responsibility of fairy mother to Kiren. I will gain my powers for a very short time and I will use that to destroy the tree with me.

This parasite shouldn’t leave this forest. I can’t perform the ceremony like this. You have to do it for me." Medina spoke as she looked at Rees.

"I can’t do it... I refuse to let a friend die. I have already lost too many people. There has to be some way to save you and I will find it." Rees spoke in an angry tone.

"Umm... What’s happening here ?" Leon’s voice came from the side.

Rees turned to the right and noticed that Leon was standing there with a blue fruit in his hand.

"Mr. Leon... You have so much knowledge. Can you please save her ? I-I beg you.

Y-You must’ve some way of saving her right ?" Rees spoke as he walked upto him.

"What ?" Leon asked with a confused expression as he turned to look at Medina.
