Chapter 479: Treant’s Second Evolution
Cleaning up the remaining maris caterpillars doesn’t take long. They swiftly began digging holes to escape upon witnessing the hades mandragora’s death.
Aro plunges her enlarged left arm into the ground where the last one is burrowing, scooping up a spray of dirt. The caterpillar flies up, a chunk torn out of its body. After confirming its death, Aro runs towards me.
“Dragon-god-sa…ma?
Aro suddenly stops and looks up at me, her eyes open wide.
『What’s wrong, Aro?』
“Treant… What are you…?”
Her expression blank and her voice trembling with rage, Aro aims an arm above my head. The treant desperately retracts its roots in an attempt to plead innocence.
『I-it's okay! It was necessary for the battle! I haven’t been taken over!』
I take treant-san off my head. Volk and the others have also arrived, so I’ll take this chance to check everyone’s levels.
