Haiming City, 6: 47 PM …
A blue beam of light that only special people could see shot up into the sky. The unique magical fluctuation of the Jewel Seed instantly spread out and attracted the attention of Takamoto Naia, who was searching for the Jewel Seed on the street.
Knowing that it was the Jewel Seed, Takamoto Naia didn't dare to hesitate. She quickly ran out of the crowd and hid in a secluded corner. She summoned the Heart of the Rising Sun that had just been repaired not long ago and changed her equipment. Then, she activated her wings and rushed toward the scene of the incident.
With the help of the wings, Natsuya Takauchi and Sei Ito rushed to the scene before the trees that had been fused with the Seed of the Sacred Stone were completed.
"Seal Barrier, activate!" Sei Itō jumped to the ground and waved his hand. A bright white Middle-style magic circle immediately appeared on the ground. With this magic circle as the center, a special wave spread out and covered the area within five kilometers of the scene of the incident, cutting it off from the normal space around it.
At this moment, with the call of an old man, the tree that had fused with the Jewel Seed finally completed its mutation. It turned from a normal tree into an existence like the legendary Tree Demon.
After activating the barrier, Sei Itō stood up and stretched out his hands, summoning a bright white Middle-style magic circle in front of him.
"Binding Chains!"
In an instant, several energy chains made of bright white magical energy flew out from the center of the magic circle and wrapped around the tree demon's two huge wooden hands and its dark green trunk.
"Naia, now is the time!" Ito Sei, who had temporarily imprisoned the Dryad, reminded her.
"Yes," Takamoto Naia quickly replied.
"Heart of the Rising Sun, please!" Takamoto Naia said softly as she switched the Heart of the Rising Sun to shooting mode.
However, just as Takamoto Naia was about to use Heavenly God Renpo to seal the tree demon, the tree demon's thick roots suddenly burst out of the ground and whipped toward Sei Itō and Takamoto Naia like tentacles.
"Koshi-kun, run!" Takamoto Naia quickly reminded. At the same time, the wings under his feet vibrated and carried Takamoto Naia into the sky.
The ferret, Ito Sei, let go of the chains in front of him. His body nimbly jumped onto the tree roots that were whipping at him. Then, he leaped into the air and once again unleashed a huge bright white Mead magic circle in the air, creating a dozen bright white energy chains. Once again, he shackled the tree demon's arms, torso, and several thick roots.
Takamoto Naia who was flying in the air saw this and knew that this was a rare opportunity. She quickly sent her magical energy into the Heart of the Rising Sun and activated a powerful shooting spell, "Heavenly God Renpo!"
In an instant, a cherry-colored energy pillar twice as thick as an adult's arm shot out from the Heart of the Rising Sun, which was covered in four magic formations of various sizes. The pillar of light shot straight at the treants below.
"Bang!" With a muffled sound, an energy barrier appeared in front of Heavenly God Lie Po, blocking it.
"Heart of the Rising Sun, please!" Takamoto Naia said again.
"Understood," the Heart of the Rising Sun's electronic voice replied.
In the next moment, the cherry-colored energy beam that was twice as thick as a human's arm expanded again. It became as thick as a human's waist and shot toward the tree demon.
This time, although the Dryad's defensive barrier still managed to block the light beam, it only lasted for less than five seconds before shattering with a "kacha" sound like glass breaking, allowing the light beam to successfully bombard the Dryad's body.
"Aooo ~" Amidst the powerless roar that sounded like an old man, the tree demon's body completely exploded into countless specks of starlight. They slowly dissipated in the air, leaving behind the Jewel Seed that was still emitting a faint blue light floating in the air.
"Color Touch Color Tup (Sealed Mode, Activate)," the Heart of the Rising Sun announced.
"Jewel Seed, Sequence Number 7, seal!" Takamoto Naia said loudly with a serious expression after hearing the Heart of the Rising Sun's announcement.
As soon as he finished speaking, a cherry-colored guiding beam shot out from the front of the Heart of the Rising Sun again. It hit the Jewel Seed that was hovering in mid-air and guided it to the front of the Heart of the Rising Sun. It then disappeared into the Heart of the Rising Sun like a ripple.
"Well done, Naia," Sei Itō praised as he dispelled the binding spell and landed on Naia's shoulder.
"Hehe …" Although it wasn't the first time she heard Sei Itō praising her, Naia still felt a little embarrassed and chuckled.
As soon as Takamoto Naia landed on the ground, a blue Middle-style magic circle suddenly appeared, and a black-haired young man who was about the same age as Naia appeared in the air. He was wearing a black combat suit that looked very much like a magician's.
"Hello, I'm the executive officer of the Space Administration, Crono Harrowan. May I have a word with you?" The young man slowly landed in front of the stunned Nao Takamori and introduced himself. He also stated the purpose of his visit.
"Sure, sure." Takamoto Naia replied nervously. This was the third young man she saw after Yagami Hayate.
"Then, please come with me," Crono said.
"Where are we going?" Takamoto Naia asked.
The next moment, a huge teleportation circle with Crono as the center appeared under his feet.
"Please come with me," Crono invited.
"Okay," Takamoto Naia replied as she stepped into the teleportation circle. Then, Naia felt the space around her change. She went from the park by the sea to a huge metal building.
"Koshi-kun, where is this place?" Naia, who was a little scared, asked in her mind.
"It's probably the inside of the Space Administration's dimensional ship. To put it simply, it's a ship that's used to travel between different dimensions," Sei Itō replied calmly.
"Well, it doesn't sound simple at all," Naia said cautiously even though she was reading aloud.
"Don't be afraid. Just leave it to me," Sei Itō comforted Naia as he licked her cheeks with his ferret tongue.
Naia, who knew Sei Itō's gender and knew that the ferret was just a disguise, immediately blushed when Sei Itō licked her with his ferret tongue. She lowered her head shyly.
However, because of this, Takamoto Naia's nervousness lessened a lot.
At this moment, after passing through a rather long corridor, Crono, Naia, and the ferreted Ito Sei arrived at a place that resembled a living area.
Crono seemed to have thought of something as he stopped and said to Takamoto Naia, "Ah, it must be uncomfortable to wear that all the time, right? Just remove the protective suit and magical staff."
"Yeah, you're right. In that case, I'll …" Takamoto Naia was stunned for a moment before she removed the protective suit and magical staff. At the same time, Sei Itō also removed the effect of the transformation technique without Crono's reminder and turned back into his human form.
"Then, this way, please." Crono didn't say anything as he raised his arm to lead the way.
Sei Itō held Takamoto Naia's hand and followed Crono along the corridor until they arrived at a room that was surrounded by potted plants. There was even a water drop bamboo installed in the room.
In an instant, a beautiful woman with long green hair wearing a blue long-tailed top and a pair of strange white pants appeared in the eyes of Ito Sei and Takamachi Naia.
"Captain, I've brought them here," Crono said to the woman.
"Thank you for your hard work," Lindy said with a smile. "Please come in and relax."
Sei Itō held Takamoto Naia's hand as they walked into the room and sat across from Lindy.
"Please enjoy," Crono said as he took some snacks from the side and placed them in front of the two. Then, he returned to Lindy's side and sat down.
"I've already seen the battle through Asla's surveillance system. If I'm not mistaken, that should be an Archaic Relic that's rated as a Grade * dangerous item. Can you tell me why you're collecting it?" Lindy asked gently.
"Because those Jewel Seeds were lost in my hands, so I have the responsibility to retrieve them all," Sei Itō replied calmly.
"Who are you?" Lindy's expression didn't change as she asked with a kind smile.
"I'm a dimensional adventurer and also the guard of those Jewel Seeds."
"Then this child is …" Lindy looked at Takamoto Naia and asked.
"Her name is Takamoto Naia, my assistant."
"I see …" Lindy said with a look of realization. Then, she asked with some doubt, "I've heard a little about the group of dimensional adventurers. I know that they are a group of people with strength and knowledge who yearn for a free life and excitement. Logically speaking, you should be able to complete the collection of the Jewel Seed without any assistance since you're the guardian of the Archean Heritage. Why …"
Sei Itō understood that Lindy was trying to delay him. He didn't say anything, or his motive for finding Takamoto Naia and turning her into a magister.
"I'll be honest with you. After the explosion of the transport ship, my condition wasn't very good. I also encountered some other situations that made me unable to fight after entering this world. At that time, it was all thanks to Naia's help that I was able to recover. However, before I fully recovered, the Jewel Seeds had already combined with the native creatures of this world and created all kinds of chaos. So, I had no choice but to ask Naia, who happened to have the potential to become a magister, to help me, "Sei Itō explained.
"That's amazing," Lindy said as she turned to look at the shy Takamoto Naia. rs！。
