Tree King: What? I've become the Abundant Pharmacist?

Chapter 547 Serhith: Waving the flag and shouting isn't a bad idea either.

"The test is over."

Seeing that the two strange creatures had been eliminated, Xiaodie spoke to Calypso.

“Not bad, not bad.” Calypso nodded slightly.

"However, the test does not end here. Once you have completed all the tests, I will tell you the whole truth."

After saying that, she disappeared again.

Mimi got angry, "Honestly, I hate guys who only say half of what they mean!"

"But to find Little Nakasha, we need to go to the treetop, right?"

Xia Die nodded. "I'm almost there. Let's go, get the embers, and confront her."

Following Eve's vines, Xia Die walked to the huge piece of amber.

"As Calypso said, must we 'pluck the embers of our present existence with the 'Golden Bough Oath'...?"

The butterfly took out the golden branch and made a vow.

In an instant, as soon as the golden water lily touched the amber, firelight flowed from the petals.

Surprisingly, the flames did not engulf the entire flower; only a few tiny sparks gathered at the tips of the petals, burning faintly.

"Unbelievable..." Xia Die's mouth dropped open.

“Mimi~! Hmm, next… can we just offer it to the butterfly?” Mimi said.

Then Calypso reappeared.

"Hehe, it seems you all have already collected the remaining embers."

"Now that we've come this far... let's offer it to the divine butterfly."

"Mimi? You scared me to death! Can you please stop being so dramatic?" Mimi was completely at a loss.

“Young rabbits need to learn to take responsibility,” Calypso said softly.

At this moment, Xia Die returned, carrying the golden branch ablaze with flames, and made her vow.

"Lord Calypso, I remember your promise."

“Of course,” Calypso nodded.

Xia Die carefully held the fire and walked step by step to the location of the divine butterfly.

The moment the golden branch touched the divine butterfly, it shone with boundless light.

The path to the throne of enlightenment was thus opened.

Tian exclaimed excitedly, "It's a success! The road has appeared!"

Calypso breathed a sigh of relief. "Ah...you all have indeed passed the test."

Then, Meneta's phantom appeared, bringing with it the mournful murmur of the Titans.

But to the butterfly's ears, it was just the sound of a butterfly flapping its wings.

"Hmm? The sound of butterfly wings fluttering..."

The phantom of Meneta uttered once more, a mournful wail from the Titans.

Calypso lowered her head, her voice low and soft.

"I'll be right back."

The phantom of Meneta responded with a mournful groan from the Titans.

"Of course, we already had an agreement..."

"But now... it's my turn to sacrifice myself."

The Phantom of Meneta: *The Titan's Sorrowful Lament*

"Oh......."

"If the west wind has an end, then we shall meet again there."

“Farewell... my love.” Calypso’s voice was filled with determination.

"Lord Calypso, what is this...?"

The Butterfly didn't hear the Titan's whispers, but she heard Calypso's deep voice.

Calypso smiled calmly, "Heh...it's nothing."

"Thank you all for your help—now it is my turn to fulfill the promise."

Xia Die spoke first, seemingly having already discerned the truth.

"Since things have come to this, I'll take the lead..."

“You…are you actually the illusion of Meneta?” Xia Die’s eyes were filled with stubbornness.

"Huh?" Calypso, who had just shown a relieved expression, suddenly collapsed completely.

"Mimi? W-what's going on? You? Titan?"

When Mimi heard Xia Die say that, she was shocked.

“Another Titan!” Tian thought the same.

Among the crowd, only Eve's expression was similar to Calypso's.

“Because, from what I’ve observed along the way, you’ve been leading us to find Cecily’s embers and protecting everything she left behind.”

"Not only the tree garden, but also the son of man."

“And this is something that only Meneta, who was once Cecis’s lover, could do.”

"So, I was right, wasn't I, Lord Meneta?"

Even after returning the flame and dissipating from its original form, it still retains its last remaining divine consciousness attached to the golden thread, protecting us...

"I never imagined you could go to such lengths for your lover. You truly deserve to be called the Romantic Titan," Xia Die said earnestly, stating the speculation that had been running wild in her mind.

“This…” Calypso was completely bewildered.

"Wow! So that's how it is! How romantic!" Mimi's eyes were filled with stars.

"That's right, that's right, Romantic Titan is just too romantic. Even when they were about to die, they still preserved their last bit of consciousness to help their lovers... This story is just too amazing!" Tian became completely excited.

Calypso sighed deeply, "Son of man..."

"What's wrong, Lord Meneta?" Xia Die looked at Calypso with a puzzled expression.

"Why can't you just think of yourself as Cesis?" Cesis asked seriously.

“You’re Serhith? That’s impossible.” Xia Die shook her head frantically.

"why?"

"Because Cecilia is my mother."

Xia Die gave way half a body, her whole body serving as a foil to Eve behind her.

"Her?" Sersis looked bewildered.

"Sigh, I already told you, I'm not..." Eve covered her face helplessly.

“Butterfly, I’ve told you before, I’m really not Cecily,” Eve reiterated once again.

“And according to my deduction, the person in front of me is the real Sersis.” Eve deduced the truth.

In fact, Eve had already discovered Cecilia's identity long ago.

However, the reason she didn't rush to expose him was partly because she wanted to know what Cesis was trying to do, and partly because she wanted Xia Die to realize how outrageous her ideas were.

She knew that, given Xia Die's intelligence, she should have realized Calypso Titan's identity very soon.

The mistakes you realize yourself are far more profound than those pointed out by others.

But just as Eve had predicted, Xia Die did guess the identity of the Calypso Titan, but she didn't expect it to be the Romantic Titan!

"what?"

After hearing Eve's words, Xia Die was completely dumbfounded.

"It seems there are still some smart people here." Cecily finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"What? This is impossible!" Xia Die still refused to believe it.

"Mom, you clearly possess power comparable to a Titan, and you have the divine ability to control plants. You even said yourself that you created the Tree Garden. You should be the rational Titan..."

"Butterfly." Eve gently stroked the top of Butterfly's head.

"I did say those things, that's true."

"But not in this world."

"Instead, it's in a world called Teyvat."

"There, I established a kingdom with a group of like-minded partners, and with my followers, I founded a school for all to learn."

"That country is called Sumeru, and that academy is called the Order Academy."

"Although my story is similar to the story here, the reality is that I am not her."

"My people will always call me by only one name: the Great Tree King, not the Titan of Reason..."

Eve explained patiently, her voice as soft as the clouds in the sky.

"The Great Tree King..." Xiaodie murmured the name silently.

She seemed to have grasped the deeper meaning of the name.

"What a loving name, Mother! It seems your people adore you..."

Xia Die realized something.

A mother is a mother; she is no one else.

"So, Little Fu has been through so much!" Tian also became interested in the country Eve had mentioned.

"Mimi~ As expected of the person I chose!" Mimi flew onto Eve's head once again, cosplaying as the little heater.

"Little Fu! If you have the chance, you must take Tian to see it!" Tian hugged Eve's leg, her eyes filled with longing.

“If there’s a chance…” Eve smiled, her thoughts already drifting far away.

Xia Die had already realized her misunderstanding.

She bowed to Cecilia in apology.

"I apologize, Lord Serhith, I misunderstood you."

Ceres finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Ah, sons of man... have finally passed the final test."

"I've been thinking about whether I should reveal a little of my divine power to gain your trust."

"I should have expected it: the enigmatic trials, the suspicious yet honest nature, calling Meneta my love, and..."

"The leader of the 'Lotus Food School' is actually named Medea, not Calypso."

"Looking back now, there were clues and hints everywhere, but I overlooked them all because of my preconceived notions," Xia Die said with some regret.

Sometimes, meticulous observation and boundless imagination can also be a source of trouble.

"It seems you are quite intelligent, worthy of the title of a student of the Tree Court." Sersis nodded slightly.

"Of course, there's another point I'm worried about: Titan has been captured by the Black Tide and may put us to death..."

"Therefore, from the very beginning, I was prejudiced and regarded you as an enemy."

"Furthermore, the principle of 'every word must be based on evidence'—this is a valuable lesson I learned during my studies at Shuting."

Serhis chuckled softly, "Heh... very good. We have managed to survive such a perilous situation. Fate is truly profound and unfathomable."

At this moment, Xia Die changed the subject, "Since that's the case... then you should tell us why you went to such lengths to set up such a riddle?"

"Hmm, the reason is quite simple, isn't it?"

“I need help—but just as you are wary of me, I must also make sure that you are not villains who seek to steal the fire, and that you are capable of dealing with the threat that is right before our eyes.”

"However, you passed both the courage and wisdom tests, and... quite cleverly at that?"

As Cecilia spoke, she turned her gaze to Eve.

"The Great Compassion Tree King?"

"Compassion, perhaps, is also my opportunity..."

"What are you saying?" Xia Die asked.

“It’s nothing.” Sersis shook her head calmly.

"Is this 'threat' related to the Black Tide?" Xia Die continued with the previous question.

"Indeed, and it's also related to the lost item from earlier. Its owner is a silent and suspicious hunter, who seems to have emerged from the Black Tide and came along with it."

"I really couldn't do anything to him, so I had to tear myself apart and flee to avoid being harmed, to prolong the days and wait for an opportunity to seek help. Unfortunately, this was not a long-term solution."

Tian asked in confusion, "Hmm...you mean, you've hidden your fire?"

Cecilia nodded. "Indeed, it was divided into three parts. One part is hidden in the 'Oath of the Golden Bough,' and another part is sealed in amber along with the embers of Meneta..."

"As for the last one... it's currently inside Xia's body, urgently needing repair."

Xia Die was somewhat surprised, "What? Could it be that you used this method...?"

"Hehe, after all, the scholars of the Tree Court were willing to go through fire and blades to protect my flame, and calmly sacrificed themselves... As a noble god, it would be too shameful of me to just watch the sons of man sacrifice themselves for others."

"Especially that heretic named Nakasha—who did not hesitate to shatter his soul as a foundation stone to trigger a miracle, laying a net in this tree garden to trap all the Black Tide creations in a cage, so as to prevent them from harming others."

“I felt that this idea was so strange, and it would be a pity if it were to simply vanish with the black tide, so I intervened and saved the life of the Son of Man,” Sersis explained.

"Of course, I was also able to hide and conceal myself... Hmm, isn't that another aspect of 'equivalent exchange'?"

“Mimi! Ah, I understand now! So, you want to use us to piece together your own embers and save Na Kexia!” Mimi suddenly realized.

Serhith chuckled, "What a clever little rabbit. In this way, I can reclaim my true identity, and you can also welcome the Fire and your mentor back to Ohmar..."

"Furthermore, together with you all, we will hunt on the throne and capture that black-clad swordsman in one fell swoop," Cecis declared with great bravado.

"But... Sersis, aren't you the Titan of Reason?"

Tian asked the key question.

"Isn't this His Majesty the Great Tree King?" Sersis's voice rose.

"From my observation, the Tree King's strength far surpasses mine, so taking down that black-clad swordsman shouldn't be too difficult."

"Although I do not possess the authority to 'contest,' I am still a deity, aren't I?"

"Cheering from behind or waving flags and shouting encouragement is also acceptable."

"With the encouragement of a Titan like myself, we'll surely be more inspired and take down that black-clad swordsman even faster!"

"Forehead......"

"fan......"

"this......"

Tian, ​​Mimi, and Xiadie fell silent at the same time.
