Chapter115-The Transformation of the Tree of Origin
Daniel looked over the assembled group.
Nina and Green were essential attendees, as this would become their responsibility in the future.
Ryze had also been invited, as this moment marked the culmination of something he had been waiting for his entire life.
Planting the first
Tree of Origin
in the main world was as much a symbolic act as it was a practical one, and Daniel felt it was only right for Ryze to witness it.
As for the other Coven members following Nina, it was her decision to let them observe and learn from the experience.
Then there was Leah, the young woman accompanying Green.
Daniel had invited her mainly out of curiosity, wanting to see her in action.
Once everyone had gathered, they bowed respectfully to Daniel, who nodded in acknowledgment.
Green, in particular, was visibly emotional. It had been years since he last saw Daniel, and the reunion filled him with excitement.
Meanwhile, Leah curiously studied Daniel, as if trying to understand why Green held him in such high regard.
"Come closer," Daniel said, gesturing for the group to step forward. "Today will be my first time attempting this in the main world. Watch closely—you may need to perform this task yourselves one day."
With that, Daniel extended his right hand, and a small sapling of the
Tree of Origin
materialized in his palm.
The sapling began to grow larger, eliciting a gasp from Ryze, whose eyes glistened with tears.
Finally, it was happening.
The
Tree of Origin
was about to be planted in the main world, far sooner than he had ever dared to hope.
Generations of responsibility borne by oracles might finally come to an end.
"This… this is the
Tree of Origin

Nina mentioned? The one capable of saving the world?" Green asked, his curiosity evident.
Daniel glanced at him. "Yes, this is it. As for why it can save the world, you'll understand once I demonstrate the process of planting it in the main world."
The sapling in Daniel's hand floated toward the lakeside, where it gently descended to the ground.
The group watched intently as the sapling settled and began to take root, its presence immediately standing out from the surrounding vegetation.
Even without understanding the intricacies, the onlookers could sense the unique aura of the
Tree of Origin.
Beneath the surface, unseen by most, the tree's roots delved deep into the soil, extending toward the world's core.
This was the tree's innate ability—to anchor itself deeply within the world.
Suddenly, arcs of electricity appeared, crackling through the air and connecting to the small sapling.
"Headmaster, will this…" Nina began, worried that the lightning might harm the fragile tree.
Before she could finish, the arcs of electricity began spreading outward, like roots of energy weaving into the surrounding space.
The air around the tree grew tense, as if the space itself was being reshaped.
"Headmaster, the space around the
Tree of Origin
is undergoing significant changes," Nina observed. "Teleportation is currently impossible in that area."
Daniel nodded, seeing far more than the others.
In his eyes, the sapling had fully anchored itself into the world and was now harmonizing with its rules, establishing a connection as natural as breathing.
This interaction allowed the sapling to grow rapidly. Enjoy new stories from empire
Before the group's astonished eyes, the tiny tree expanded, maturing into a towering tree several meters tall within moments.
Its branches spread outward, sprouting vibrant green leaves that shimmered with mana.
The tree's massive canopy stretched over the lake, casting a vast shadow across the water.
The group stood in awe of the spectacle.
"So this is the
Tree of Origin
…" someone murmured. "It's incredible."
In truth, Daniel's role was minimal.
All he needed to do was place the sapling on the ground.
From there, the
Tree of Origin
would grow independently, adapting to its environment and thriving in the most suitable manner.
For Daniel, the most fascinating aspect was how the tree integrated with the world's rules.
It created a perfect cycle: the tree influenced the world, and the world, in turn, nurtured the tree.
This interaction wasn't just restorative—it had the potential to evolve the world itself.
Daniel recalled the elder's words: the original
Tree of the World
had been severed during a great conflict, leaving the world stagnant.
The
Tree of Origin
could serve as a new
Tree of the World,
reigniting the world's growth and evolution.
Daniel's gaze shifted to the surrounding landscape.
The
Tree of Origin
now covered a vast area, encompassing Crossbridge Academy and much of Riverside City.
However, its immediate effects would be most noticeable within the academy grounds.
Ryze, overcome with emotion, fell to his knees, tears streaming down his face.
As an oracle, he had carried the burden of this mission for as long as he could remember. Now, seeing the
Tree of Origin
standing tall, his heart was filled with a mixture of relief and gratitude.
"This tree…" Green said, breaking the silence. "It seems to be transforming its surroundings, strengthening the world itself. Does this mean it will make the world stronger?"
Daniel smiled. "Exactly. It seems you've been studying the book I gave you."
The book Daniel had given Green contained profound magical knowledge. Though Green had barely scratched the surface, his dedication was evident.
Nina turned to Green with a grin. "Can I borrow that book sometime?"
"That's not possible," Green replied. "The book only works for me."
"Really? Or are you just making that up?" Nina said, skeptical.
Daniel interjected. "Green is telling the truth. The book was a reward specifically for him. Besides, even if he gave it to you, would you read it?"
"Hey, don't underestimate me!" Nina protested. "Sure, I don't like reading, but maybe the knowledge will just… jump into my brain? Headmaster, you must have a spell for that, right?"
Daniel ignored her and turned his attention to Ryze, who was still kneeling.
"Stop crying," Daniel said gently. "There's still work to be done. You'll plant more trees like this one, and only after we've purged the world of those with
god power
can you afford to celebrate."
Though the
Tree of Origin
was immensely powerful, its influence was currently limited to a specific radius.
For the world to be fully restored, many more trees would need to be planted.
Daniel looked at Nina and issued his next command.
"Nina, I have a task for you."
"Got it! Where do I start planting trees?" Nina asked eagerly.
"Not yet. First, you'll need to summon Rose, Reed, and Nora back to the academy."
"Just those three?" Nina confirmed.
"Yes, just them. The next phase is to plant more
Trees of Origin
throughout the continent."
Nina nodded, her excitement returning. "Headmaster, can my Coven join in on this mission?"
"That's up to you," Daniel replied. "But for now, go and notify the others."
"Yes, Headmaster!" Nina said, already preparing to leave.
