The dead mana?�

� Don�t you remember?

The glutton asked.

� Remember where we first met. Remember the tree where you fed me bread. Don�t you remember?

He remembered it.

He remembered the, �Man-Eating Tree,� at the top of the slums in the Henituse territory.

He remembered that black tree. It was the spot where he got the Indestructible Shield and started on this odd journey.

��Hold on. Black?�

Cale recalled how the tree turned from black to white once he earned the Indestructible Shield.

�Perhaps?

Was the glutton not the reason the tree turned black?�

The people of the slums said that everything underneath the black tree was desolate and avoided that area in fear. Cale had been moving alone at that time without Raon.

He then thought about how the ground becomes desolate from dead mana.

The Super Rock chimed in at that moment.

� Living beings were able to live and breathe underneath the shield when the black rain came down in the past. Although it still couldn�t be purified.

The glutton�s Indestructible Shield which had the wood attribute added on. It was a slow but sure voice.

� I�m good at eating everything.

�What a cool glutton!�

Cale started to smile.

�This is the Jungle.�

It was the place with the largest number of trees.

Cale then heard Tasha�s voice. The voice that made it through the water sounded worried.

��This is bad. W, we can�t handle this much.�

Tasha looked toward her subordinates while standing between Litana and Choi Han who did not know what was going on. JrNovels.com
