-???’s POV-
The abandoned forests of Tokyo are not completely dark even when the darkness falls. That’s because the Light Flowers shine themselves and illuminate the area.
Each flower is as small as a miniature light bulb, but from outside the forest, the only light source in the darkness is a fantastic glow.
It was as if a swarm of fireflies was cruising among the dense vegetation, a beautiful scene that sometimes attracts painters to paint landscapes. The imbalance between the forests and the ruined skyscrapers is sad and beautiful.
However, if you’re lured by the fantastic lights, and step into the forest, death awaits you.
For where there is a Light Flower, there is always a monster. And Light Flower will only bloom in places with a certain amount of mana.
In other words, it’s a dangerous place because the monsters that appear there have a certain degree of strength.
People have no choice but to look at the fantastic landscape of death from the outside.
Normally, that is.
Tokyo mid-levels. In this dangerous place where demons roam. There was a woman under the Light Flower.
She wears a tight-fitting, wrinkle-free suit that didn’t look out of place in the forest. She has a straight back and good posture. Her straight, waist-length hair was a deep green color, and her eyes were the same color.
Her face is redeeming, her makeup is somewhat heavy, and the purple rouge on her lips is noticeable. Her racy movements give her the air of an elite. She’s about 170 centimeters and is probably in her early 30s.
With movements as if she were playing the piano, the woman operates a tablet in her hand.
“That girl, she’s out of the ordinary even among those I know. ……… I wonder what’s going on.”
She tapped the tablet with her index finger, a thin smile on her face.
Her name was Gerer. She’s Gerer, the director of the Laughing Botanic Gardens, one of Nídhogg’s highest-ranking officials.
She is the woman who manages the Laughing Botanical Gardens, a nightmare filled with madness. In the Night of Magic, she’s the crazy character who grows plant-based demons and loves flowers that bloom on human corpses.
With her mastery of plant magic, she created everything from narcotics to potions at Nídhogg, spreading her evil intentions.
In the original story, he was a psychopath who captured anyone he liked and turned them into trees for his collection. She captured druids and turned them into collections.
However, she was defeated and killed by the druid’s wild heroine and Shin, who showed up to help her.
Shin defeated the mad botanical garden director in a fierce battle in the original story.
Aguni Masatoshi would describe Gerer as a psychopath of the worst kind.
But now Gerer was reasonably intelligent.
A temporary tent was set up in the forest, with an electron microscope, a laboratory box, and various other experimental equipment in front of him.
Sitting on a pipe chair, he put his hand to his chin and pondered the results displayed on the terminal.
“It’s not just the concubine’s Brainwashing Thorn. Both Confusion Thorns and Sleep Thorn are using she uses a series of recovery magic that nullifies all thorns. And she’s not showing any fatigue at all.”
Reflected on the tablet is the image of Miu that she had shown in the battle with Princess Thorns. In addition to the Magic Eye Flower, Gerer also had surveillance cameras installed in Thorn Princess’ room.
While looking at what was filmed, he tapped his finger with a difficult look and muttered.
“Thorns are parasitic plants. Once it enters the body, it will dominate the opponent with the power of the magic it has been granted. That’s the result of my magic, and there is no way she can heal it with recovery magic. I wonder if her recovery magic is recovery magic.”
In the original story, Gerer gets described as an insane plant magician. In reality, she was a plant magician and a chemist of the highest caliber.
The easy-to-understand villain who gets described as a mere psychopath who enjoyed turning people into plants was, in reality, a smart researcher.
“If we can capture and analyze her magic, we might obtain some revolutionary technology. It might even make my concubine’s research jump a few steps forward.”
Gerer stroked his skin and laughed with a grin. His skin is flaky, not in keeping with his age. No, it is not just a lack of moisture.
Its surface was the bark of a tree, with the grain of the wood visible.
“Fusion with Treant. And the prolongation of life .that goes with it, and this one’s marginal, too.”
If people look closely, they can see the wrinkles in Gerer’s eyes and can see that she has aged. Although she appears to be in her thirties, Gerer’s actual age is already over 100 years old.
She has had a partial fusion with treant to prolong her life.
Giggling, she frowns as her fingers tap the tablet, which makes a dull, creaking sound like a wooden doll.
“The experiment with treant was a failure. Fusing with plants is a good way to lose consciousness and eventually become a mute tree.”
She looks around and lets out a sigh. The hall where Gerer is in a huge space, with many odd-shaped flowers blooming and countless fruits growing.
“I need to perfect Immortality Magic soon, or else it will be bad. I don’t know how many more years I can keep my sanity.”
Gerer is a woman skilled in plant magic and a chemist of the highest caliber. As she is wont to do, she has grown old and begun to strive for Immortality.
After a series of outrageous experiments and being chased from the public stage, Nidhogg’s Guru picked Gerer. Her knowledge was outstanding, and she contributed to the Nidhogg by creating Magic Mitigation Potion and other products.
All for the sake of Immortality.
