Book 3: Chapter 12


    <strong><strong><strong>Ascent to Yggdrasils Summit</strong></strong></strong>


    We finally reached Yggdrasils dungeons sixth level.


    Up until the fifth level, no monsters attacked us, and with Sylphs support, getting the rare items was a piece of cake. Everythings A-okay.


    After exploring for a bit, we finally reached the sixth floors center. A huge stone monument stood there.


    A slim golem stood protecting the stele. It was an earthen golem, with green ores embedded in various ces.


    It was an Arc Golem  a high-ranking golem species. Ordinary adventurers dont stand a chance against this one.


    Even when multiple A-ranked adventurers form a party to conduct a raid and fight, there is no guarantee they will win  thats how strong this golem is.


    Originally, we have to fight against this golem in order to reach Yggdrasils topmost ce, which is also Sylphs residence.


    Thats right  <em>originally.</em>


    Youve worked hard! Thank you, as always!


    Sylph greeted the Arc Golem. It opened the stele, and saluted Sylph.


    Okay, lets go!


    Ahh, as I thought, we didnt have to fight.


    We passed-by the saluting Arc Golem and moved towards the side of the monument; then, as prompted by Sylph, we ced our hands on it.


    Is everyone touching the stele now? Alright, here we go!


    The stone monument started to glow. It was so dazzling, we closed our eyes.


    It felt like our bodies were being sucked in.


    After a few seconds


    The feeling passed, and we opened our eyes. We were standing on top of a gigantic tree branch. Thick branches were ovepping each other way above the branch were standing on. The warm rays of sun shone through the leaves, and it was much brighter up herepared to the dungeon. Apparently, we were transported from the dungeon to this ce.


    Teleportation is a skill unique to the transmigrated Heroes, but high  level Spirits like Sylph can also move between specific ces that are connected to each other within the dungeons that are under their domain.


    I looked around.


    Its hard to believe we are standing on a tree branch because of the incredible stability. I can see the tip of the branch from afar; it was thin, but it looks like I can still walk on top of it for approximately 1 kilometer. I marveled at the sheer size of the World Tree.


    Everyone, its this way.


    Sylph called us, and we walk towards the tree trunk. An elevator- like contraption was there. It was a wooden box that can hold around ten people, and it was being held by ivy. The ivy seems to be connected to the top of Yggdrasil.


    This is a bit too crude for me, considering I know how elevators look like back in my original world.


    Eh, were supposed to ride on this?


    I made it with the thought that when somebodyes here, he can ride on it. This will take us all the way to the top! The view from the top is the best, so look forward to it, okay!


    <em>When somebodyes here?</em>


    Meaning to say, nobody rode on this yet?


    Im a little bit nervous.


    Okay, go on, go on!


    Eh, wa, wait a minute!


    Sylph pushed our backs and we stumbled right into the elevator.


    S, seriously, well ride on this all the way to the top?


    Isnt Tinas flight magic much better than this?


    For some reason, Sylph didnt enter the box. Well, shes already floating, so I guess she didnt need an elevator.


    Alright, here we go!


    Sylph formed a magic circle under our box.


    W, wait, dont tell me The ivy at the top of this box are just decorations?


    This is a really, really nasty idea  I feel it.


    A st of wind gushed from Sylphs magical formation with great force, pushing our box with ultra-high speed.


    Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!


    The box climbed up with the speed of light.


    We cant bear the eleration, and we were pressed down against the floor of the box.


    Suddenly, the surroundings became brighter.


    We slipped through the branches and finally came out to the top of Yggdrasil.


    We stopped elerating.


    The box crumbled upon reaching the cluster of leaves at the very top. All eleven of us were thrown in the air.


    Beautiful


    Alheims cities and the surrounding scenery, viewed from the ginormous Yggdrasils top, were so breathtaking; the word just flowed out.


    So this is the panorama that Sylph wanted to show to us.


    Then we began to fall.


    Tina! Save everyone!


    Tina was making her way towards me when she heard me yell, so she turned back.


    At that moment, I saw it.


    <em>Dragonized</em> Ryuushin sprouted wings on his back, and he was carrying Ryuka while flying.


    Mai and Mei had turned into their spirit forms and recovered Youko and Leaffa.


    Luke used flight magic to fly while carrying Luna.


    Eh, everyone can fly?


    Tina went to rescue Merdie.


    And I continued falling.


    I wonder why. Nobody came to save me. Wait, maybe theyre thinking I can also fly?


    Excuse me, but I cant!!


    Tina finally realized it, and she flew towards me in a panic.


    However, before Tina reached me, I was enveloped by the wind, and my descent was halted.


    Sorry, I miscalcted the amount of force. Hehe.


    Sylph flew beside me.


    <em>Hehe </em>your face!!


    Well, even with that, seems like everyone can fly.


    Yeah, its my first time to learn about it, too.


    On the contrary, Halt cant fly.


    I felt slightly depressed hearing that from Sylph.


    Hey, isnt being unable to fly the norm?


    With this, I firmly decided that Ill also learn how to use flight magic.


    T/N: Just a random side note. Ive been shipping Luke x Luna ever since the Steel Forest incident where Luke protected Luna. Im hoping (with all my might) this ship will sail. I dont read beyond the chap Im tling so I have no idea if they will. XD


    <em>*disimer on tl notes: I make them right after I trante the chapter, hence the line I dont read beyond the chap Im tling* hehe..</em>
