Chapter 163: Alive
CREAKK!!!
The skies were filled with the echoes of trees bending. Like the ominous sound from old doors being slowly pushed open. Loud crashes and leaves rustling with the wind. Yes, it was the melody of the forests coming alive.
Along with the scents of cedar, sap, and vegetation, this was truly a world of nature. That was if one discarded the giant beings fighting in the heart of the forests.
A pair of giant 18-meter humanoid trees was attacking their opponents.
Low groans of twisting branches brushed past the trespassers as the trees swung their limbs like arms. Mighty stomps of tree trunks thicker than a house fell like thunder. Yet despite all that, the giants of nature failed to hit their opponents.
There were not alone; hundreds of smaller humanoid trees all similarly uprooted themselves from the ground to join the fight, yet it did not make a difference. The entire forest was in chaos. And at the center of it all were just two people.
A ghost who flew around sniping with her rifle and a golem who blew everything in his way apart.

"Greatest pet peeve?"
"Definitely overgrown nose hair. You could be an absolute goddess but would lose all my respect if I saw hair sticking out of your nostril."
"Are you serious? You call someone an absolute goddess yet a few inches of hair in the wrong spot makes you hostile? What would you do I had overgrown nose hair? Ah! Jump, Elian!"
