Cheat Awakening

"Good, since you've decided. As I said earlier, we Divine Beasts will do our utmost to assist you in achieving your goal of saving the elf race. Even without that, I would still cooperate with you regardless. You can always trust me," Fenrir said to Myne and Amy with a smile.

The cooperation of the Divine Beasts… huh? Perhaps I can utilize their immense mana to use my Unique Magic • Sublime Obscurity skill. Garnet has been spending my money like water lately, and I barely have any savings left. I have no idea what she's spending it on – clan building, or something else entirely. Myne thought helplessly, recalling the golden box given to him by Fenrir's mother.

This box, not only slowed time but also housed a mountain of platinum ore and a tireless platinum coin-making machine. Now, the mountain of ore had vanished, leaving nothing behind. The last time he entered the box with Hanaha for some leisure, he was dumbfounded to realize his wealth had dwindled without his knowledge.

If he had access to a vast mana source provided by others, he would be ecstatic.

Perhaps Ymir misunderstood Myne's sigh, thinking it was a sign of discouragement about being the "third wheel" between Amy and the Divine Beasts. He quickly spoke gently,

"Also, you don't have to worry about causing us trouble. Originally, it was my fault that caused this mess, so I'll take responsibility for cleaning it up. It's not my place to say this, but this course of action has the general consensus of all the Divine Beasts. Rather, I should be the one worrying."

As soon as Ymir finished speaking, Fenrir gave him a helpless look and shouted annoyingly,

"…..You don't have to say that!"

I see. So, this matter is much more complicated than I anticipated. That's why they were willing to do anything to rectify the situation of the elf race. I wonder why they value the elves so highly. It can't just be because the elves care for the World Tree, right? Myne looked at Amy with a curious expression, trying to figure out what made the elves so special that it compelled the Divine Beasts to interfere with time and revive them by going back into the past.

"I understand. I… I mean, we'll do our best," Amy responded, feeling Myne's gaze, thought he was hinting for her to respond, and quickly spoke, bowing respectfully towards Ymir.

Delighted, Ymir nodded, very satisfied with Amy's understandable character.

"Moreover, I can see that you've all received an interesting Blessing," Ymir ignored Fenrir's grumbling and gave Myne and Amy a meaningful look, naturally confusing them.

"An interesting Blessing? What do you mean?" Myne couldn't help but ask, but seeing that Ymir had no intention of elaborating, he turned to Fenrir with hopeful eyes.

"Sigh, he's talking about the Blessing you received from the World Tree," Fenrir explained. "With this skill, you can not only connect with the World Tree and request assistance from nearby Divine Beasts in emergencies by using it as a medium, but it also grants you the ability to revive after death."

Fenrir's casual words struck Myne and Amy like lightning. Firstly, they couldn't comprehend how she could discuss resurrection as if it were merely waking up from sleep. Secondly, how was it even possible to be revived just by getting a random blessing from a tree? What kind of bizarre logic was this?

Myne, who felt like his brain was about to short circuit, quickly used appraisal on the World Tree Blessing. He had confirmed before that if he knew more about any skill than the description given by the appraisal skill, its description would be updated.

[ Divine Protection of The World Tree: Nature Blessing:

Description: Increases affinity with Nature, and connects the Host's consciousness with the World Tree, allowing the Host to contact nearby Divine Beasts. Automatically invoked when the Host's life ceases. When the Host dies, their soul, marked by the World Tree, will be summoned back, and the Host will be revived. A one-year cooldown period is required before using this ability again.]

It… it's true! F*ck, so now I have another trump card to save my ass! Myne exclaimed happily.

Finally, some good news! Although it can only be used once a year, it's still better than nothing. Now, until my children are born, I can feel more at ease.

Myne after coming back to his senses looked at the World Tree, which seemed to look even more appealing to his eyes than before. He didn't expect that this old grandpa would give him such a high-quality greeting gift.

"This… this kind of ability…." Amy trailed off in disbelief.

"I see. I understand now. It was because of the World Tree's blessing. At that time, I was able to come back to life. I always thought my luck was good that I was able to survive under the wreckage, but it turns out I was dead that day too, and then the World Tree revived me... But why only me..." Amy looked at the World Tree with a complicated gaze, and muttered confusedly, catching Myne off guard, who beside her happened to overhear her words.

He didn't expect to hear such an interesting piece of information. His respect for the World Tree deepened even further.

"Such a caring tree," Myne muttered emotionally, wiping non-existent tears from the corner of his eyes. "If there were a dozen or so more, I wouldn't have to worry about two of the most important things in my life ( Life and Women ). They would take care of everything for me."

...

"Alright, that's it then… we will try our best to find that skill. You should try to find it too. Maybe you'll have better luck and be able to find it before us, and then we can continue our plan to go back into the past. But now it's getting late. I have to go back. Ymir, are you coming?" Fenrir looked at Ymir, who nodded, and his colossal hundred-meter-tall body began to shrink. Within a few seconds, he was reduced to a mere five meters.

Then, Myne, Fenrir's personal transport agent, as usual, opened a portal, and both Ymir and Fenrir walked into it, leaving Myne, Amy, and Waffle, who was sleeping on a random branch of the World Tree, behind.

"Well then, what should we do now? Shall we go home, or would you like to stay here for some time?" After the troublemakers left, Myne turned to Amy, who no longer tried to stay away from him as if he were some kind of plague.

"Uhmm, Myne… since we're here, why not explore the Dungeon of the World Tree? It's not far from here," Amy replied hesitantly, clearly unsure whether staying with a pervert like Myne was a good decision or not.

"That's right, it certainly is a great idea, and you mentioned that there are a lot of unusual monsters over there. Maybe I can find some nice skills too. As expected of someone who can make all kinds of creepy potions, you guys don't have the word 'rest' in your dictionary, right?" Myne joked, gesturing for Amy to lead the way in a gentlemanly manner.

"But Myne, you already have so many skills. You shouldn't blindly acquire more. It's not a good thing to lose too much of your lifespan. Although it doesn't have any immediate effect on your body if the loss is too much, you won't end up well," Amy reminded him with concern.

Clearly, until Fenrir and the others found a way to send them back to the past and she could revive her race, Amy didn't want anything to happen to Myne. After all, he was the most important link in this mission.

"Relax, I'm not as weak as you think. I've eaten magical fruit, and my lifespan is twice that of a normal person, so you don't have to worry about me dying suddenly for this reason," Myne boasted, eager to show Amy his true value and earn her admiration. After all, only then will she realize his true worth and cherish him more.

Otherwise, how could this grandma fall into his hook and become his secret girlfriend despite knowing his history?

"I see. No wonder you even have time to give skills to Aisha and others. So it turns out this is the reason," Amy said, looking enlightened.

"And I always thought you didn't like poking into others' business, but you have all the information about me and my family," Myne continued, teasing her, making her roll her eyes.

"Unless I'm blind, I can see Aisha and Sylphy using more than three skills every day at the training ground…"

While teasing each other, guided by Amy, they walked for nearly two kilometres and reached the entrance to the Dungeon of the World Tree. A small cave entrance, wide enough for a single person to fit through. It was well hidden behind bushes and tree branches. If someone wasn't guided, it would be very easy to miss it.
