Paimon: Heh heh, Cory's a completely different person when he talks about Amber.

[Colette: Ugh...so embarrassing]

[Amber: Hahaha, I'm not as good as you say, Cole]

[Yura: That makes sense, doesn't it?]

We have mutual friends.

The group quickly became acquainted.

After the forest ranger's work is completed.

The three of them sat under the shade of a tree and ate.

Paimon praised Cole's excellent skills.

After that, Cole talked about Tinari.

Tinari was a very accomplished scholar.

The Order of the Fathers invited him to take up a position on several occasions.

He rejected them all.

The reason given was that "the city of Sumeru is too noisy and bad for the ears."

Yingmei ate her food while still managing to crack a joke.

"Ears...ears feel so nice to touch!"

"Right! I think so too... um, cough cough!"

[Tinari: ...]

[Ying: Do people with furry ears and tails all have this problem?]

[Son of Yae: Ask General Goro? 】

[Goro: N-no!]

After that, Cole said many good things about Tinari.

Tina also carried her back yesterday.

Ying's opinion of Tinali has changed slightly.

Paimon, however, was a little annoyed.

"But I still felt a little annoyed because he kept criticizing me the whole way!"

Ying asked her, "What did you do?"

Cole interjected to explain.

"Ah, I'm so sorry, Master may have been in the wrong about this."

"Because Paimon kept shouting, 'What do we do? Is she going to die?'"

"No matter how we tried to persuade him, it was no use; he angered Master."

This made Ying laugh.

Paimon: You actually laughed! How dare you! I was just concerned about you!

[Ying: I'm reflecting on my actions... Hahahaha]

[Lisa: Every time I see these two cuties interacting, I feel a little healed.]

Cole laughed too, and Paimon decided to play a trick on her.

Unexpectedly, this action triggered a reaction in Cole.

He said he was fine.

But he just ran away.

I only found out by asking a passing forest ranger.

She has already gone back to her room.

It was too late, so Ying decided to go and ask about the situation the next day.

the next day.

Ying went to Ke Lai's room.

She was still lying in bed and hadn't gotten up.

Tinari was also there.

He explained to Ying that it wasn't Paimon's fault at all.

Cole already had a pre-existing condition.

Tinari led the two away from the room and told Cole to rest.

She's made new friends these past two days and is so excited.

They forgot that they were ill.

Tinaly stated that he was not motivated by Ying's good deeds along the way.

That's when they decided to tell them about Ke Lai's condition.

On the contrary, he didn't want to say it.

But it was Cole who asked him to do it.

"Coley has suffered from a disease called Devil Scales since she was a child."

[Ying: Huh?!]

[Paimon: Is it the kind I saw in the video?]

[Yomiya: Did Miss Cora also catch that disease?!]

[Colette: ...Yes]

[Sino: Kleiner...]

Tina then explained the symptoms.

"At first, the patient only felt some numbness in the areas of the skin that had changed."

"However, as the condition progresses, there may be a decrease in strength, and occasional loss of sensation in the fingers and toes."

"Ultimately, the patient will lose control of their body and become completely incapacitated."

[Ayaka Kamisato: Miss Cole accidentally dropped her rations on the ground just now, too...]

[Navia: I didn't expect the symptoms to be so severe]

[Ying: I'm sorry, Cole... I was joking with you earlier...]

[Colette: It's okay. Smiling through life is something Amber taught me too.]

Everyone was silent.

Chapter 203 The Desire to Link the World Tree

Because of Cole's old illness.

Tina has always taken good care of her.

Ying asked if there was a way to cure it completely.

The answer is no, we can only control the condition.

Tinari then revealed an even more startling fact.

Someone once lied to Cole's mother.

She was instructed to hand Cole over to the Doctor of the Fools.

In those years, scaly disease was completely contained.

But for Cole...

That was not a pleasant memory.

[Colette: ...]

[PhD: Does anyone want to know? I'm happy to share my knowledge.]

Diluc: Shut up.

Afterwards, in order to help Cole.

Ying followed Tinari to the forest to gather herbs.

Then, they encountered the dead zone.

Ying assisted Tinali in clearing the dead zone.

But Tinari remained deeply worried.

Because the rate at which dead zones are appearing has increased significantly recently.

The emergence of dead zones will not only affect the rainforest ecosystem.

Moreover, the situation in the dead zone worsened afterward.

Cole's scaly disease is getting worse.

And it's not just in Huacheng Guo's area.

The same applies to Sumeru City.

[Ying: Could the Dead Zone and Demon Scale Disease be caused by the same reason?]

[Hu Tao: That's caused by taboo knowledge, isn't it?]

[Tinari: The reason why the Demon Scale Disease cannot be eradicated is probably because even the Tree King was unable to completely eliminate the forbidden knowledge in the end...]

Like the Demon Scale Disease, the Dead Zone cannot be eradicated.

Tina asked Ying if she had ever heard of the World Tree.
