I stayed quiet for a moment after what he said. And I spoke in a low voice.

"I'm not going to die."

His hand on his eyes flinched.

"I won't die by your hand."

The moonlight on Claude's hand slid down and landed on the sofa.

"Even if I die, it won't be by you."

I could see Claude's eyes again. I saw his eyes become hard and looked at him with my mouth shut tight.

"You....."

His eyes were filled with shock.

"Weren't a dream?"

I lightly smiled.

I really.....

"I missed you, dad."

But I guess this isn't the time yet.

"Bye."

So stay well until next time.

"Wait!"

Claude extended his hand towards me. But I was faster. I disappeared right in front of his eyes.

When I opened my eyes again, I could see flowers on the trees like snow. I was back in Atlante.

He still wanted to kill me, so I guessed it would be goodbye for a while.

I didn't know when I would see him again, but this was another farewell.

I looked at the flowers flying around in the moonlight and said a farewell of my own.

But I didn't know that I would be able to meet Claude again so soon.

"Wow, this is unbelievable."

At the world's end.

There was a tree called the World Tree that grew in all colors of the rainbow.

Normal humans wouldn't be able to approach it, but there was an intruder here.

"Which bastard ate my things?"

It was a handsome boy with black hair and red eyes.

He looked to be about 15.

He kicked a fruit of the tree that was on the floor with an angry face.

It popped on the floor. But it was already cracked, the magic that was supposed to be inside was gone.

The World Tree looked at the boy with surprise and anger.

"Should you have left a fruit for me? You want me to eat a diaper like this? Really?"

The boy was Lucas, who had left to eat the World Tree's fruits. And the World Tree had met him before in this place.

About 100 or 200 years ago, someone had come. He didn't remember the time, but he remembered the human's face because only a few people could come here.

And the reason why he could remember Lucas was because.....

"Hey, you've known me for several hundred years! You should have at least one fruit hidden for me!"

The World Tree became angry at his mocking words.

Friendship? He only came to eat his fruits. But he came when the fruits weren't even grown, and he was angry! Threatening to pull his roots out!

Why are you still alive, you human!

"I didn't know there was someone who knew this location.....who came? Hey, when did you become so easy? Can you give away your fruits like that to anyone?"

As the World Tree expressed his anger, magic exploded everywhere.

Boom!

"Didn't I say to protect my fruits last time?"

Why are they your fruits, they're mine! You stupid human!

"You wanna be bald again?"

The World Tree had the ability to think, and was extremely proud of its branches.

"And this bastard doesn't even have manners. He should've gone away after eating what he could, but he ate everything? Does he wanna die?"

The World Tree thought of the human who had eaten a single fruit and picked the rest of them to stomp them on the ground.

He wanted to blow him away because the act was so rude.....but to the World Tree, the humans were the same.

"Ugh, I can't leave empty handed."

The World Tree thought about whether it should break its peace to fly the human far away.

"Well, there's nothing I can do."

The human clicked his tongue and stepped back.

"I should just eat what's left."

What's left? What? He wasn't going to eat the fallen fruit on the ground.....

And the World Tree saw Lucas's eyes looking at it.

It slightly moved its root towards itself.

.....Me?

Nod.

Really me?

Nod nod.

You're going to eat me?

As the World Tree pointed at itself, Lucas fancily smiled and bobbed his head up and down. The World Tree exploded.

This rude human!!!!! AHhhhhh!

As the World Tree exploded in anger, magic exploded once again.

Boom! Whoosh!

"Ugh, the dust."

But Lucas wasn't one to step back.

"Hey, why are you being so harsh? This old tree is old enough to die, but it doesn't want to. Sheesh."

When the dust settled down, Lucas was standing there untouched.

The World Tree was shocked.

This monstrous human! He was still alive!

"So if you had hidden at least one fruit well, I wouldn't have thought of eating you."

Just where did he get that idea? He could die if his body couldn't handle it. So if his head was screwed on right, he wouldn't even attempt this.....

"Well, but I like peace, so I'm not going to kill you. I'll leave you alone so after 500 years you can bear fruit again. And you can help me again then....."

Was he planning on staying alive until then?

"So I'll only eat a little."

The sound of crying and magic exploding rang out.

It was exactly 41 days later when everything settled down.

After Lucas left, the World Tree was standing with only a single root left.

"Alright, today we'll continue our last lesson about Gale's theory."

The old professor rubbed his mustache.

"Alright, everyone open their books to page 73."

Today, I was in the back of the classroom again. I was bored because I had already learned everything.
