Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer

There were many creatures that were huge in this place right now and this hippo and Ent couple were some of the biggest ones here.

The hippo was five meters, and the Ent was around five and a half meters tall.

It was still strange that I was totally fine before such strong and ferocious-looking beasts.

But, it was still ok. I know my heart and all these creatures in these open hall-like grounds.

They were good beasts and...

'Good beasts? Wow... 'good' beasts.'

I laughed internally at my own thoughts and looked at the bright blue oyster shell the hippo had held before me.

The hippo had a prideful expression and many of the beasts, including Fern and Gaar, were surprised to see this thing.

I didn't follow their exaggerated reaction and checked the thing with my own eyes.

'Appraisal.'

============

<Deep water Oyster>

-An extremely rare natural organism that produces a rare gem <Aqua Glance>.

-The gem holds a miraculous ability to increase the ability to handle water attributes significantly.

-The Oyster shell increases the Mana pool by 10% when consumed but the user has to have the high mental fortitude to absorb it.

============

"What the...?"

Increase the ability to handle water attribute?

'This thing is a treasure?!' My eyes widened in surprise.

Things like this were actually called <Natural Treasures>.

Not as just metaphors, but as actual treasures.

If something could increase your ability to handle a fundamental element, then it won't just decrease the difficulty, it would decrease Mana, willpower, and concentration consumption, too!

To give such a thing as a gift was already a huge thing.

'But... does this really have the pearl?'

Accepting the oyster shell, which would be helpful in itself, I opened the loose shell.

Everyone watched as a sea blue light escaped the shell, and our eyes glowed in blue.

[ "Parry... did you dive into the lake to get this?" ] Gaar asked with a bit of a surprised look on his face.

It was surprising, but he wasn't that shocked or anything, as he also understood that the hippo can actually do that.

[ "Parry~? Why would you even go there? You know we don't go in their territory~? ] Fern's eyes were shining as she looked at the gem.

She looked surprised to see something after a long time.

"Huuuuuup!"

Parry patted his chest in triumph and it seemed she said something funny.

'This hippo is female... don't blame me, I didn't know earlier.'

Her attitude was like: 'what could those fuckers do?'

It was surprising to see Fern happy with behavior like this, meaning she wasn't just a peace-loving mammy squirrel.

She could go up against opponents that wouldn't understand through words or threaten her family.

'If anything, she would be the last being I want to go up against.'

In a fight, imagine you start feeling unbearable pain, sorrow, grief, hunger, thrust, or any kind of emotion.

She could do that, on a very large scale at that.

But, I locked my eyes on this beautiful sea blue pearl.

'Appraisal.'

============

<Aqua Glance>

-The pearl holds the ability to increase the ability to handle water attributes significantly.

-increases the Mana pool by 20% when used as an accessory.

-If ingested by someone with extreme mental fortitude, the person achieves the skill [Aqua breathing].

============

"Wow... like, wow~. I get a skill if I swallow this?" I was admiring the gift, but a horrified voice entered my ear just beside me.

[ "No! Don't even think about eating this! Not even these three can endure the highly condensed energy!" ]

Fern smacked my shoulder with her small hand and looked straight into my eyes with her beautiful green eyes.

It was my first time seeing such a shocked reaction from her.

[ "Master is right. One needs not only a higher mind but a body too. It would be bearable only to (Indigo) and higher-level beasts." ]

Gaar was worried, and his explanation was more understandable than Fern's.

"Well... I wasn't actually going to do something like that, but thanks anyway. Thank you, Perry, for such an amazing gift~!"

It was just amazing how someone can just give out something like this to someone.

It showed the importance Fern held to each one of them.

She was happy too, so I also smiled and nodded happily at Perry, the hippo.

"Treeeeet!"

From behind his colossal figure, Ailji the Ent shouted in disagreement.

Stomping his tree trunk-like legs, he came before us and pushed Perry behind him.

"Huuup?!" He shouted in confusion as if saying: 'what's left to see now?'

[ "No fighting, you two~!" ] Fern shouted and jumped down.

Scolding them for three whole minutes, she came back and laid down beside me.

It was amazing to see a squirrel scolding and giant tree-like figure and a ferocious hippo.

And they both even got embarrassed, as if their mom had scolded them in front of everyone.

Everyone here was also enjoying this small show, some of them taking out barriers and fruits for enjoyment.

The show ended, and everything quieted down.

"Huuuuup," Perry said, something like a forced apology.

"Treeeeet." Ailji also apologized, but both their gazes were saying something like: 'We will see that.'

Walking toward me, the Ent took out something from the hollow part of the tree-like body.

A beautifully arched tree branch, decorated with three crystal-like flowers and three intertwined white strings.

"Is that really...?" A shocked gasp escaped my closed mouth as I looked at this with wide-open eyes.

I could feel Mana from this, an exorbitant amount of it.

The red, blue, and green flowers that were the same as ice crystals exuded fire, water, and wind elemental Mana.

Even the three finely twisted strings looked like professional work.

[ "I'm speechless you would personally do something for someone else, Ail. This is marvelous work~!" ]

Fern showered him with genuine praise.

"Magnificent..." I still can't take my eyes away from this piece of art.

'Appraisal.'

============

<Mana tree bow>

-A bow crafted by an elder Ent with a piece of Mana branch as the base.

-Three elemental flowers increase the stability of Mana and the storage capacity of ambient Mana.

-Contains a one-time use spell (Mana Blast) that sacrifices every bit of Mana from the Core.

============

It was surprising to see these game-like introductions, but this was indeed a very special thing.

A crafted bow... no. A well-crafted magic bow with the core as a (Mana branch).

It was the same thing that dad made his white wand with.

This bow before me, however, was significantly better than his wand.

It contained more Mana, had more stability of elements, and even had three elemental flowers.

They were rare things and combined as one; they had some energy like the vampire flower I got after killing the plant monsters.

This was something I needed the most at this moment.

A good bow to replace my old one.

Though it was good and I could use it for a good time, it was not for someone who was at (tier-2).

This new one was more powerful than the current one.

Seeing my joyous reaction, Fern waved her tail in excitement.

"Huuup!" Perry turned his head away in frustration.

A creepy smirk appeared on this tree-faced creature as he saw this reaction.

With a small chuckle, I took the bow from the big, wooden hands of Ailji the Ent.
