nChapter 46: Birth of Evil

nTranslator: Lonelytree

n“I shouldn’t wish for Sif to get into any more harm. The child has already suffered.

n“Although… I wouldn’t mind saving Rheagar one time.”

nJust like that.

nFive days later.

nIn the evening.

nIn the oak forest.

nMatthew carried the sack and shovel and walked leisurely back to the hut.

nWhen he was less than 50 meters away from the wooden house.

nHis domain suddenly triggered automatically!

n“The big guy is coming!”

nAn oak tree secretly told him.

nMatthew turned to the west.

nA figure rushed over.

nHe rushed in front of Matthew, paused for a moment, and then asked in a particularly unhappy tone, “It’s fine if there are no animals in your forest, but why aren’t there any berries?!!” Eli glared at him.

nMatthew thought for a moment.

n“Maybe because this is an oak forest?”

nEli’s dissatisfaction became even more serious. “That’s not what I meant. Of course, I know that this is an oak forest, but why are there only oak trees in the forest and no other plants?”

nMatthew put down his shovel and explained in a friendly manner, ” It’s like this, Mr Eli. I just started to plant this forest. I’m not a forestry expert. I only know how to plant oak trees for now.” Eli revealed an incredulous expression.

nThen, he sneered,

nIt’s indeed in line with my understanding of necromancers. How can there be only one kind of tree in a forest? Forget it. I don’t want to talk about this with you today. You know, Shapeshifters like me often need a lot of meat to replenish their energy. Of course, I have mastered many druid spells that enable my survival. For example, I have a spell that can help me fill my stomach with a small amount of berries. However, the problem is that you have nothing here!”

nMatthew looked enlightened.

nHe was wondering why Eli had been running around in the forest for the past few days!

nSo he was looking for food?!

n“So, you hadn’t eaten for five days?” Matthew hurriedly asked.

n“Four days!”

nEli revealed a cold expression that showed disdain for talking to Matthew. “On the third day, I couldn’t help but steal a chicken from the farm next door. But I can’t do too much of this kind of thing, and this debt will be on you. Matthew, I’m guarding the forest for you!”

nGuard the forest for Matthew?

nMatthew thought for a moment and connected the cause and effect.

n“It seems like he wants to repay me for me bringing him into the oak domain.”

nMatthew’s opinion of Eli changed a lot.

n“In that case, Mr Eli, let’s have a meal at my place.”

nHe sent out an invitation.

n“I won’t eat with a necromancer! I’ll stay here. You can bring the food to me!”

nEli’s attitude was still stinking and unyielding.

nMatthew didn’t mind.

n“In that case, I can only give you this first.”

nThe Magic Bag that Sif had given him just happened to produce a large batch of biscuits.

nMatthew handed it over.

nEll t00K tne DISC111t ana smelled It, tnen cnewecl It eagerly.

nMatthew smiled.

nHe turned around and went back to his room to eat.

nAfter dinner.

nHe found that Eli was still in the same spot.

nHence, he took the initiative to go over and say hello, “What’s wrong, Mr. Eli? Are you not full?”

nEli glanced at him. “I’m full. Thank you.”

nHis tone was still very firm.

nAfter saying that, he glanced at Matthew’s wooden house. “What did you eat just now?”

nMatthew pursed his oily lips. “Just a simple meal.’

n“Is that so? I smell sausages.”

nEli looked at him suspiciously.

nMatthew changed the topic.

n“So, the reason why you are staying in my forest is to repay me for the little help I inadvertently gave you? If that’s the case, there’s no need for that because it was just an accident. I only wanted to provide Samantha with domain enlightenment. You were able to comprehend it purely because of your amazing talent.”

nWhen he heard Matthew mention Samantha, the veins on Eli’s forehead twitched.

nHe used a lot of strength to hold back his anger.

n“I have a ruler in my heart. I won’t leave until I pay back what I owe you.

n“Don’t underestimate me. We, Druids, are the true kings of the jungle. If I didn’t guard the forest for you, these oak trees would have been destroyed by the evil

nWitherers!”

nMatthew laughed.

nHe wanted to tell Eli that he didn’t owe him anything.

nHowever, Matthew swallowed his words when he saw the proud face of Eli.

nHence, he nodded and said, “If you want to stay, of course, you can. Please do as you please. I’ll get someone to prepare a portion of food for you.”

nAs he spoke, he took out a pen and paper, seemingly preparing to record.

nThe corner of Eli’s mouth twitched. “No need. The biscuits just now will do.”

nMatthew chuckled. “Biscuit or sausage?” Eli hesitated for a moment. “Sausage then.”

n“Do you want anything else? For example, drinks?”

nMatthew asked again.

nEli shook his head decisively. “No need.”

n“Milk or coffee?” Matthew did not seem to hear him.

n“Um, milk,” Eli answered awkwardly.

n“Then, from tomorrow morning onwards, you can come here to find me before I start planting trees. I will give you the food for that day.”

nMatthew lowered his head and scribbled a few lines.

nHe looked at his serious expression.

nA thought suddenly came to Eli’s mind.

n‘Does he treat his employees so well all the time? ‘No, damn it! I’m not an employee of this necromancer!’

nHe raised his head fiercely.

nHowever, he was shocked to find that Matthew had already left..
