Great Ancient Mage, Confirmed (1)

“Haa! Haa!”

“Argggh! Grgggh!”

“Hiiiii…!

The morning arrived. An elven village in the center of the Mother Forest was built around the World Tree; such a peaceful and tranquil village looked vigorous.

“Next, 37th group, into the Bath!”

“At last!”

“Same with the 61st group. I’m sure everyone met their quota, right?”

Everyone, including the humans, dwarves, and elves, was mixed in an empty field, and they were repeating the strange actions which Evan taught. Evan sorted them into races and genders. He allowed them to rest in the bath after training for a considerable amount of time.

“Mealtime after 30 minutes! Mealtime!”

“Woaaaah!”

“Everyone, cheer up!”

Maximizing the training’s efficiency through taking adequate rest after doing enough working out and supplying enough nutrients necessary for them would promote their physical growth. A scientific yet systematic growth plan which wasn’t established in G.o.d’s Era nor even in the present time where Evan lived took form. A scene that could only be seen in the modern time of earth was being made by the union of thousands of different races.

“It’s really a beautiful sight.”

“I take it as a scary scene. It feels like a fully controlled society where all members are working restlessly.”

Maybell spoke her ruthless opinion. Evan also knew about it, so he felt guilty and avoided her look.

“I’ll leave them as-is since they seem to have established an order to some point…then, I should head to the Necklace world.”

Evan spoke to Fayna, who was dumbly looking at the training ground in the Mother Forest.

“Come with us.”

[Is it all right for me to go to that place?]

She might have realized how Evan was alerted against her at first. He smiled slightly in response.

“We are already allies. Moreover, I need your help in that place.”

[My help? Are you talking about the blessings from the Great Mother Earth?]

“Correct.”

Evan activated Miraseul’s necklace. He could now easily open the door to the other world.

“Ha, G.o.d! You’re here!”

Sharay stood up instantly and greeted him as if she were waiting for him. Naz and Arpa, who were doing mana training by her side, looked happy, although they pretended not to be.

“You can’t, you know?”

“I know.”

“Ouch.”

Evan flicked Maybell’s forehead as she clung onto his neck while thinking of impolite things. He told them to continue with their training while he looked around the wide field. Fayna was already looking around, shocked.

[Oh my, there was such a wide area which is alienated from the other world. Soil flowing with enough energy that life can grow out of it, water, sunlight…sunlight?]

“I also don’t know what that sunlight is, so there’s nothing I can tell you about it even if you look at me like that.”

Evan put aside Fayna, who stood like a statue after giving up on understanding this world due to its vast information. He decided to work on his project. Leaving aside the vegetable garden and the forest which he made with Mirole before, he decided to cultivate a certain area into a garden. This land was vast, no matter what. The animals that were previously released couldn’t even be seen at this point. The area was wide enough to handle a garden for growing food for thousands of people.

“Hiyyyat.”

Evan placed one hand to the ground and pushed it lightly with another hand. Then, an enormous amount of ground was turned upside down. It took only an instant for a garden that could feed thousands to be formed.

[Huh?]

Fayna regained her senses by the result Evan’s light hand gesture caused.

“And…Hiyyat.”

Evan pulled his hand, and the ground was turned upside down once more, which allowed the soil to be mixed adequately. Evan stretched out both of his hands to use his Annihilation and acquired the garden area after enough approximation. She started to doubt whether Evan was an agricultural type G.o.d who was a friend of the Great Mother Earth as she saw the changes he made through his hand gestures.

“This much will allow people to start farming.”

“You’ve just plowed the ground completely.”

“This isn’t the end.”

The ultimate fertilizer produced by Evan’s alchemy! He scattered it throughout the garden. And after making it into a complete garden by mixing up the soil several times, he started planting the seeds of the crops.

“Can you help?”

[Sure.]

Fayna started helping while looking like she was more scared than when Evan defeated Diokas. With the help from the disciple of the Great Mother Earth, spreading seeds and even watering them was completed instantly.

[I just need to give this soil the blessing of the Great Mother Earth. I’m on it.]

“Thank you.”

As Fayna prepared her holy power, Evan prepared his medicines. They were growth stimulants for the crops.

“Approximately in a week, crops can be harvested.”

“In just a week!?”

“Yup. Then the ground would need rest, but it can’t be helped since people are in dire need of food.”

Surely, after harvesting the crops, if the soil were recovered through alchemy, another harvest would be possible after a few days. If this work were done in a larger area in modern times, the harvest would jump ten times higher. Still, the cost of ingredients used, such as fertilizers and potions were higher than the value of the crops, so he didn’t actualize it. Besides, it wasn’t easy to receive blessings from the Great Mother Earth.

“And this will solve the food problem.”

“I was thinking that you wouldn’t accept these people without any preparation…but this is really absurd.”

[I’m done with the blessings, Zero.]

Fayna used almost all her holy power, and she reported to Evan with an unburdened expression.

[Now, this land will never be exhausted.]

“…It was doped more than my expectations.”

[Even the crops from this land will be distributed in the name of the Great Mother Earth. It’s to spread Her name and Her grace. There’s no need to hold back the power.]

It applied the same to Evan. His raising the crops on this land would be of help to the Great Mother Earth. As Evan nodded in satisfaction, Maybell asked a question.

“Master, why did you create a garden within this place? I know that it’s easy to manage in this place, though.”

“It’s not easy to create a garden in the atmosphere outside as of the moment. The aura of the ground is extraordinarily strong, too.”

The atmosphere of G.o.d’s Era was rich in a bad way. Auras were too strong everywhere to the point that even the crops turned into monsters. Moreover, as monsters’ numbers were great, aerial or underground monsters tended to destroy the garden. Many other reasons existed on top of that, so farming in G.o.d’s Era seemed to be a joke.

“It’s fortunate that the elves can barely manage to take care of the garden within the boundaries where the effects from the World Tree are strongest.”

[On the other hand, everything here is stable and new. It’s the best condition for farming.]

Fayna seemed to like this land a lot which was expected from the disciple of the Great Mother Earth. She even proposed something like this.

[Since I don’t have anything to be of help to the humans and the fairies as of the moment, can I focus on taking care of this garden? With my power as the disciple of the Great Mother Earth, I can hasten the aura of the land, which will enable a faster harvest.]

“I appreciate it if you are willing to do so. I will call you when I need your help, Ms. Fayna.”

[Understood.]

It was the moment where the disciple of the Great Mother Earth was hired as a farmer.

“I can now speed up faster with the broom!”

“Ah, Sharay. Yeah…you girls gather around, too.”

“G.o.d Oppa, you are done with your task.”

“Mr. Zero…”

After finis.h.i.+ng the garden, Evan and Maybell checked the mana training of Sharay, Arpa, and Naz. As all three sisters had outstanding ability in controlling the mana, they were showing better progress than the mediocre elves.

“Wouldn’t the elves be in danger?”

“In fact, yes. They were too relaxed in peaceful moments…”

But they would be better as they were striving to do their best through Evan’s method!

“Taking that into consideration, their progress is too fast. Especially Sharay.”

“Y-yes!”

Sharay twisted her body as she felt shy at getting Evan’s attention, but she still spoke to him while looking at his eyes. Her sky-blue eyes sparkled clearly.

“I’ve always been ensuring my body is clean so that I can offer it to you anytime, G.o.d!”

“I wasn’t saying your body growth is fast.”

Evan drastically parried Sharay’s moves. Arpa, who clearly ignored all the idiotic acts put up by her sister, was clinging onto Maybell.

“We want to get serious with magic, Ms. Maybell!”

“Yeah, it’s about time. Master, when will you have these children experience real combat?”

“I’m planning to hold off the dungeon conquests until the humans are ready. Everyone is strong, but they are all ranged warriors.”

Probably, he had a dungeon in mind, which would be appropriate as their first battle stage. To the point that he intentionally left it out when clearing out the dungeons. It was the first dungeon that the Great Ancient Mage conquered in Yo-Ma Great Zero.

“Hmm, there might be some changes, so shall I take a look?”

“I’d like to go!”

“Uhm, all right. Fighting lightly would suffice, wouldn’t it? Then let’s go.”

Sharay blindly followed Evan despite not knowing what he did. He asked Arpa and Naz to come along. Still, whether they were unconfident to head out since they started training later than their sister, or they were giving Sharay a chance to go out on a date with Evan (Of course, Maybell would tag along), they declined his offer.

“Your charm has always been deadly, except to those children, Master.”

“I’m doing my best not to think deeply about that, so please don’t bring it up, Maybell.”

Anyways. Evan decided to introduce Arpa and Naz to men that matched their likings. Their lineages must be continued.

* * *

It wasn’t too difficult to realize that the dungeon he picked out was already completed. The dungeon reaction had fully subsided.

“Huh…?”

Evan looked at Maybell, hinting whether she had completed it without his knowledge, and she shook her head right away.

“It’s not like I get to go on a date with you often, so there’s no reason for me to go to the dungeon filled with weak monsters.”

“Then who would complete this dungeon? The forest fairies are busy with their training.”

“Uhmm, Diokas came here last time. Didn’t the demon forces complete it?”

It was a foolish idea. Dungeons were bridges from the outside to invade Middle Earth, and the Demons took the initiative to destroy it? Wait, that’s not something impossible since there were Demons who opposed the Devil in G.o.d’s Era. Even more, there were NPCs who were strong from the start that joined with the protagonist in Yo-Ma Great War Zero…

“If they can freely act, unlike the game…Uhm, it’s not impossible. Well, it’s all good then.”

There were other dungeons anyway. Evan decided to be on alert for his surroundings and decided to look for other dungeons.

And he realized a few more dungeons were completed, too.
