The seed that Hikaru had sown earlier quickly germinated, and then grew at a tremendous speed.

It grew taller and bigger, as it quickly became a fully grown  tree that was more than 7 meters tall, the trunk was 2 meters in diameter, and the canopy covered an area with a diameter of about 15 meters.

The green leaves were gently swaying with each passing wind.

On the tree appeared countless flowers as small as two fingers, it had white petals, with small yellow spots on the petals.

Those flowers seemed to be shining, as its light made people feel very comfortable as if they were looking at the stars hanging from the tree.

The crowd saw an old tree for the first time, and they were immediately startled, surprised, and confused… all kinds of emotions appeared inside them.

Suddenly, Amdoc shivered, as he was looking at the strange tree he said, "It's… that's… that's… that's… that's a tree…"

"Tree?"

"Is this tree any different from the trees in the fog?"

"Stupid! Don't you want to shut up! Don't you see that tree was planted by master himself?"

"Ack! Sorry! I…"

Amdoc shook his head, he didn't know how to explain. The new generation could not know about the existence of a true tree.

Most of the plants inside the fog were transformed into monsters, with bizarre shapes.

Amdoc had also only seen drawings of trees in books that have been preserved since ancient times.

However, the beauty of this tree was completely different from the trees growing inside the mist.

Amdoc suddenly said: "You are the ones who were born while this world was covered by fog, so you don't know about the existence of trees."

"Although I am like you, I have seen its image through ancient documents."

"Trees that grow in the fog are monsters. They evolved to suit the misty environment, and they live off eating other monsters."

"The herbs are also taken from those plants, so the toxins inside the herbs are also a lot. If we use it for a long time, we will poison the mist."

"However, trees are different. It draws its energy from the sun to create the greatest gifts that mother nature has given us."

"They are not like the monster trees out there, the trees are the masterpieces of nature."

Amdoc said as he trembled, his eyes a little red with emotion.

Ever since he read information about trees from ancient documents, he had dreamed of seeing a true green tree.

However, this world was invaded by fog over 10,000 years ago, and the trees were transformed into bloodthirsty monsters.

The concept of greenery had almost disappeared from the dictionary of the inhabitants of this world.

However, now Hikaru was able to plant a tree, and the tree grew so swiftly that Amdoc was extremely surprised.

So beautiful…

So majestic…

Great, excellent, wonderfull…

What all the sages of this world couldn't do, Hikaru was able to do it and this made Amdoc feel that Hikaru was even more like a god.

It must be known that, after the fog invaded this world, the sages, and countless enchanters also wanted to create trees.

However, 10,000 years had passed, and no one had succeeded. What they created were only trees that looked more like monsters.

In the end, people gave up on creating green plants, instead they focused on reducing the amount of mist poison inside the herbs to make it safe for people.

Hikaru didn't give it much thought, to him, this tree just represented that the ground in his domain where the "Perfect Simulation" was activated could grow trees.

Combined with the infinite lake, growing trees in his domain was simple. However…

Although Planting trees was easy, protecting the trees was difficult.

His territory would become the leading economic center of this world, which means that many inhabitants of this world will come here.

Due to the fact that there is no shortage of Enchanters or sages, or in other words, scientists in this world.

When they see his territory where plants can be grown, their curiosity will make them research the place more.

This was normal, he was only afraid of vandals. Therefore, the best way to protect it is…

Hikaru looked at Amdoc and said, "How do you feel about this tree?"

Amdoc bowed to Hikaru, then said, "Master, it's very majestic, very beautiful… it has the beauty of a masterpiece that no other craftsman can create."

Seeing his excited expression, Hikaru smiled and nodded: "Um… Amdoc, if I told you to take care of this tree, would you be able to do it?"

"me?!" Amdoc was startled, his legs were a little shaky, he quickly knelt on the ground and said: "Master, please forgive me. I'm afraid I can't do something so important."

That's right, for Amdoc or the inhabitants of this world, trees are the most wonderful and sacred thing.

Over the past 10,000 years, it seems that this tree was the first true green tree to appear in this world.

If other people knew of its existence, he was afraid a war would break out. He was just an old Dwarf, so he didn't have the ability to protect this tree.

Hikaru smiled and said, "Don't worry. I said you should protect it, I mean look after it."I think you should take a look at

"Look after?"

"That's right. Amdoc, maintaining peace and order is not the responsibility of the lord alone, but the responsibility of everyone."

"Everybody contributes their strength to protect this place, so that this place would really become a place worth living."

"If everyone relies on me, then when this place is threatened by enemies, who will protect this place? Or you guys?"

Amdoc and the others who heard this seemed to realize something.

Hikaru didn't want to talk too much about this, he just spoke  a few words, and let them think for themselves.

Talking too much can be counterproductive.

"You just need to watch over this tree and not let anyone harm it, that's enough."

After saying that, Hikaru left, Amdoc raised his head, did not see him anymore, and sighed.

"This responsibility is too heavy."

Amdoc muttered, however, he also felt it was his honor. Anyway, Hikaru planted this tree in the Dwarven area, which means that he trusted the Dwarves.

"Village head…"

Suddenly, a young Dwarf spoke up: "What should we do?"

"That's right. This quest is too difficult, we can't resist the power of the sages or the kingdoms out there."

"Haizz, I think the village chief should find someone more suitable to take on this task."

"That's right. We are but little Dwarves, unable to fight against the mighty races out there."



The Dwarves around Amdoc talked a lot, but he didn't listen. He just stared at the tree, enjoying its beauty with all his heart.

"Silence!"

Suddenly, Amdoc shouted, making everyone silent, they looked at him as if waiting for something.

Amdoc shook his head and said, "You are a bunch of cowards. You guys look…"

He pointed to the tree and continued, "Do you know what you are seeing?"

"That is the hope of this world. It is the first green tree in this world after the mists invaded this place 10,000 years ago."

"Village chief…" A person suddenly spoke up: "Is this green tree any different from an ordinary tree? It's just… I feel it's very beautiful, looking at it, I feel very peaceful."

"Stupid!" Amdoc shouted: "Didn't you listen to me? The trees that grew inside the mist have been contaminated by the mist, they have turned into monsters."

"Medicinal herbs taken from those trees are mostly poisonous, if they are used a lot, they will definitely be poisoned. Do you know why in the past 10,000 years, no one has passed the King level?"

"That's because the poison inside the potion causes the level limits of all adventurers to drop a lot."

"However, normal green plants are different, they contain almost no poison inside."

"Also look at those flowers. According to the ancient texts, those flowers will bear fruit, and the fruit can be eaten."

"Besides… Every tree has a dwelling god. What you say is contempt for those gods."

"But… Chief, we can't afford to protect the tree." A young man stood up to speak, his face filled with disappointment.

He was frustrated because he couldn't afford to protect this tree.

Everyone here felt proud and happy to have been assigned by Hikaru the task of protecting this tree.

However, they also knew that their ability is not great, that's why they felt disappointed.

"Hahaha… you guys are indeed a bunch of idiots. Master said, we just need to take good care of it."

Amdoc explained: "Do you think there will be any army capable of attacking this place?"

"The answer is no. They will be annihilated by master's royal army before reaching the wall."

"What the master wants us to do is guard this tree, take care of it, and not let anyone destroy it."

"You also see that the place where master planted this tree is in the middle of a roundabout of six roads. What if someone picks leaves, or walks unnoticed, and crashes into a tree?"

"Ah! Chief… you mean…"

"That's right." Amdoc nodded: "I think master just needs us to guard this tree, and not let the people around him come near it or harm it."



In the office, after Hikaru returned to his room, Narita was waiting for him.

Narita saw Hikaru enter and said, "I didn't think that you could revive the trees again."

Hikaru shrugged and said, "Not just one tree, in the future, my territory will be covered with many trees. Agriculture will develop, and we won't need to worry about raw materials for the preparation of medicinal herbs or food."

Narita heard that and rubbed his chin: "Hm… have you thought of a problem that if people know about the existence of trees, and they know that you can grow trees, and develop agriculture, What will happen when it comes to food production?"
