The Max Level Hero Has Returned!

According to a quick calculation, Yggdrasil’s memory capacity could be said to have the ability to store large amounts of data that could not be handed over. In fact, basic calculations would dictate that Davey would not be able to drive her insane even if he poured all of his memories into her head.

However, Davey was no ordinary human being with an average lifespan of a hundred years. He did not have to worry about who would come out on top in this psychological warfare, which was why he had pushed ahead. After all, he knew that Yggdrasil’s mind and spirit would collapse with almost a hundred percent probability under his assault.

[Kghhk?! What… What is this?! Fine! Come on! Let’s see how a human being like you, who has not lived for a hundred years, can endure my memories! Your mind will definitely collapse from receiving excessive memories from me!]

Yggdrasil cursed the moment she realized that Davey wanted to share their memories. After all, how could someone like Davey win against her, right? However, her crazed expression as she cursed at Davey slowly hardened.

[What… What is this…?]

It was obvious to Yggdrasil that the boy in front of her was a human who has lived for less than twenty years in this world. Unfortunately for her, Davey had a lot of memories within him, including the twenty years that he had lived in his previous life, the ten or so years that he had lived in this continent so far, and…the one thousand years that he had spent living in the Hall.

According to some data analysis, a human brain could only store around 140 years of memories. However, an average human couldn’t even remember that much. No matter how good a memory someone had, they would still face limitations unless they were transcendental beings. So, for humans who could collect plenty of information per second, the ideal method was to erase all the useless information and only keep what was important.

That was why even though Davey could be said to have more than a thousand years of memories, there shouldn’t be that many memories left in his head. That should normally be the case, but…

Sadly for Yggdrasil, Davey had strengthened and restructured his mind to keep all of his memories. He never lost a single one.

[What… What is this?! Aaaaaaack!!!]

Needless to say, Yggdrasil was receiving tens of thousands, perhaps even millions, of pieces of information in one go. It had to be known that even Perserque, who had lived for 3,000 years, or even those obese lizards that had lived for thousands of years were creatures that forgot a lot of things.

For Davey, this memory exchanging process had already happened twice so far. The first had been with Perserque, and the second was this current situation with World Tree Yggdrasil.

In Perserque’s case, most of the memories had been filtered out before they had even entered her mind since she was the original owner of the authority. But that was not the case for Yggdrasil. No matter how long the World Tree’s Will had lived, there was only one possible outcome if they were receiving a vast amount of memories in one go.

Davey let go of the struggling Yggdrasil. He staggered back before his knees sank to the ground. Just as he had planted his memories in Yggdrasil, Yggdrasil had also planted her three hundred years of memories in him.

Davey had a thousand years of memories within him, so three hundred years more was just something that he would scoff at. However, in all honesty, three hundred years was not a small amount.

Perserque frowned. She clung to Davey and quickly started to filter the memories that were pouring in his head, erasing most of them and leaving only the things that he needed.

—Don’t resist! This great one will protect you!

“…”

Davey wanted to refute Perserque and ask her what she was doing, but it was very hard for him to form words right now. He could only frown.

Davey held his head in one hand while keeping Yggdrasil, who was collapsing from her failure to handle a huge amount of information, at bay for a long time.

A few quiet moments passed before Davey finally won.

[Keuaaaaaaaaaaaaack!!!]

Yggdrasil, who was a spiritual body, could not withstand Davey’s vast memories and ended up disappearing into thin air. She had fled into Davey’s mind space, which wasn’t that far away.

Yggdrasil’s instincts must have told her that she should run away from Davey.

At the same time, Perserque, who was filtering through and burning almost all of the memories that Yggdrasil had, only left one piece of memory in Davey’s head.

Davey squeezed the last of his powers and crossed through space. With only so much power left, he could only make one spatial movement. It was much more primitive than the magic system’s spatial movement where there was a need to calculate for coordinates, but it did not matter to him.

[Space Folding][1]

Davey gently bounced on the ground a few times before jumping up into the air. He was seemingly stepping on clouds. The moment he jumped, the scenery around changed as if everything had been turned upside down in the world… He eventually arrived somewhere deeper inside the Divine Tree’s sacred land, a place that was devoid of any other life.

There, Davey found the woman crawling towards a lake with clear waters that had a blue light emanating from its depths. The woman was none other than Yggdrasil, the one who had escaped from Davey.

[Oh merciful Goddess, please save this body that is groaning in pain…]

Davey blocked Yggdrasil, who was desperately crawling towards the lake and mumbling her prayers. He then asked her quietly, “The Goddess is not answering you, right?”

[…]

“Of course, that’s only to be expected.”

After all, Goddess Freyja was far more cruel than what Yggdrasil thought her to be. For Davey, the Goddess was a monster who could willingly throw away a transcendental being, even if she had personally created them, the moment they interfered with the future that she wanted. That was the case with the World Tree right now. And perhaps, it could be Davey in the future.

“You can soak in the lake as much as you want. It looks like you can communicate with God if you dip your body inside God’s Holy Water,” Davey commented.

Yggdrasil’s gaze shook when she looked up at Davey.

[How the hell… How the hell can a human… This is impossible! How can a human have such a vast trove of memories?!!! And what kind of place is the Hall?! That place is against the rules of this world!!!]

“Even I, who have experienced it myself, still find it ridiculous. Do you think it will be easy for you to understand?”

Yggdrasil looked at Davey as if she was looking at a monster.

[A human… No matter how outstanding a human is… For a thousand years… No, there’s no way that a human like you can retain that much information…]

Starting from her feet, Yggdrasil started to crumble away. She was still too young as the Will of a World Tree. Following the logic that all living things would experience growth, Yggdrasil’s version of the World Tree was still but a small child. Even if she was the World Tree, for a child who had lived less than 500 years to receive hundreds or thousands of times more information than she could handle… Well… The results were obvious.

Even though Davey took efforts to see Yggdrasil personally, in the end, she would still die.

[You…]

“I don’t have any memories from you. I have erased all of the memories that I got from you except for a few things.”

Davey might not be able to forget things but that would not matter since he already had someone who could filter what came into his head. But for Yggdrasil? Well, she did not have any safety measures. On top of that, she had completely ignored Davey, saying that he was just a human who had lived for less than twenty years. What kind of memory would he have, right? However, it was her mind that had collapsed.

‘Ha…’

Yggdrasil sighed despondently. She began to look at Davey fearfully.

[I… I can’t die like this… I don’t want to die… I don’t want to die!!!]

A great deal of fear and terror could be felt through her fitful cries.

[I… I… I don’t have any intentions of dying just like the Great Will of the past!]

Yggdrasil cried desperately as she struggled to crawl forward. Eventually, she was able to dip her hand in the lake.

Vwooooong!!! Thud!!!

At the same time, a light so intense that it turned the entire forest purple shone down on Yggdrasil from above.

[Ah… Ah… This can’t be happening… This can’t be happening!!!]

Davey turned his head away silently after seeing the light.

Yggdrasil had asked for Goddess Freyja’s help, but under the cover of the intense light, her struggling body started to crumble away even faster.

[I don’t… want to… die… I… just…]

With a flash of light, Yggdrasil disappeared and turned into small particles of light. All that was left of her were some shimmering powder and small beads made of light. The disappearance of the Will was quite serene and a bit fancy.

—Davey.

Davey, who was silently looking at Yggdrasil’s disappearance, turned to Perserque after he felt her tug at his ears.

—When Yggdrasil was born, did you know what she first saw from the flow of fate?

“What?”

The World Tree was still very much alive and well. However, its Will had already collapsed and crumbled. It could be said that this was a result of an external force but, in the end, it was her own doing that had made her perish like this.

—The future where she would die under a human’s hand. But it’s a bit different from this situation.

It was a bit different but the prophecy eventually became the truth.

—Yggdrasil was extremely afraid of dying. That’s why she was very wary of outside forces that might try to kill her.

Davey laughed coldly at Perserque’s words.

Yggdrasil did not want to die? That was why she had harbored extreme fear and hatred? For someone who strongly believed in fate and destiny, it was quite funny to know that Yggdrasil had struggled so hard to escape her own fate of dying.

“Considering all that, why was she confident with this life?”

—It has been more than 200 years since she first cut herself off from human interactions. She must have come out because the fate that she had seen changed at some point in time.

Funnily enough, it seemed like Yggdrasil’s Vision of Fate had grown twisted bit by bit as time went by. More than that, she, the one who had believed in fate the most, had struggled to escape from her own fate before becoming a victim to it.

And the reason why Yggdrasil had believed in fate so much? It was because she had become delusional after having survived a reversed fate that had convinced her that she should never change fate.

Touching the remains of the World Tree’s Will with his hand, Davey turned away silently.

The World Tree still existed, but its Will had already died. The power that supported the world was in the giant tree itself, but it could only be possible if its Will existed. Because of that, once a Will had died, a new Will had to be born.

***

A new Will was born to replace Yggdrasil, the will that had disappeared.

In the aftermath of the huge fight between Davey and Yggdrasil, most of the Divine Tree’s Sacred Land had been ruined except for a few small areas.

From the elves’ perspective, Davey was just like a rogue who had suddenly burst in, killed their God and parent, Yggdrasil, and smashed their homes. Would any excuse matter if the entire truth had already been distorted once?

Not all of the elves in the Divine Tree’s Sacred Land were stubborn and crazed fanatics, but there was no denying that Davey had no solution to the current situation that he was left in. It would be easy to push them back with force. In fact, Davey’s side had an overwhelming advantage and plenty more viable options than the elves’ side.

The World Tree’s Will had disappeared for a long time now, and Davey had watched the process of Yggdrasil’s death for hours. He was watching the glittering powder made of light scatter and disappear.

—It is a rare experience to see a high-ranking soul on the World Tree level cease to exist.

‘That’s right.’

Of course, Davey was not the only one who had witnessed Yggdrasil’s death.

“N… No…”

“No!!! Mother Divine Tree!!!”

After seeing the aftermath of the battle and the remnants of Yggdrasil that were slowly disappearing, the armed elves wept.

Considering the number of elves that lived in the Divine Tree’s Sacred Land, only a few had come all the way here. But seeing how there were even a few Ancient Guards among them, it seemed like the elves had tried to scrape up and gather everyone who could fight here.

To these elves, Davey was a thief who had robbed them of their mother and God. How could they not take him apart, right? However, they did not dare to move recklessly. After all, Davey was a monster who had single-handedly killed Yggdrasil.

After watching the glittering powder completely disappear, Davey, who completely ignored the elves that were preparing to attack him, walked away.

“S… Stop!!! Bastard! Today will be the day that your evil deeds come to an end!!!”

Davey narrowed his eyes, because the elves had been the ones that started this meaningless fight. Yet, he was being made out to be the bad person.

“This is a warning. Put down your blade.”

“Don’t make me laugh!!!”

Davey already knew that the elves were beings that never listened to anyone. If that was the case, then…

“Gnoass, kill them all.”

…Davey would willingly become the villain who they had made him out to be.

Vwooooooong!!!

Fortunately, there was still some spirit energy left in Davey’s body. Upon his command, the ground twisted and turned as the colossal earth giant, Gnoass, appeared with his overwhelming momentum and blocked the elves.

At Gnoass’ appearance and intimidating presence, astonished and horrified expressions appeared on the faces of all of the elves present.

[Foolish bastards!!!]

Baaaaaang!!!

The World Tree was a very sacred and holy existence to the elves. However, the same was true for Spirit Kings, who had a sort of holiness to the elves that would not lose out to the World Tree.

As if saying that actions were louder than words, a huge earthquake unfolded in the area as Gnoass reached out to the elves who were standing stupefied in front of him.

Crack, crack, crack!!!

Then, a huge hand made of earth popped out of the ground and snatched all of the elves up.
