Act 118: The Apple Tree Universe(1/2)
"boom!"
It seemed as if something amazing was bursting in Aragaki's body.
In an instant, an extremely dazzling light flashed.
This light cannot be seen directly, as if it will turn into ashes as soon as it is touched.
However, when Aragaki's consciousness originally thought that all this would evolve into the universe, he found that this was not the case.
This he has licked most of the secrets in the universe, and the deduced "universe" is actually just a small garden.
This garden is not big, only a few apple trees.
And these apple trees bathed in the sun quickly picked up a few fruits.
At this time, an apple tree suddenly turned into a biological form similar to a human.
He began to walk freely.
He came to the next to the apple tree, picked nine of the ten apples on the tree, and then leaned under the tree to pass by.
Soon, the apple tree bears fruit.
However, there are only five fruits born this time.
This humanoid creature, while picking four fruits, said, "You, really, don't know how to work hard at all. Do you think you have taken ten fruits and I have picked nine of them, so you won't work hard? You have only taken five? What's the benefit of this to you?
Why don’t you take a hundred fruits? If this happens, I will only take ninety, and are you still ten left?
If I hadn't been here to accompany you, would you be so bored?
It's really ungrateful."
The leaves of the apple tree trembled twice. Of course it heard all this. Although it felt something was wrong, it still bears 100 fruits in the third year.
However, ninety-nine humanoid creatures under the tree still picked off.
While tasting the apples, he said, "This taste is not as good as the previous two years. It is a bit sour and not delicious. You, can't you work harder, it's sweet and delicious?"
So, in the next fourth year, red fruits finally grew.
"Why are there only one hundred? Can't you pick up two hundred?"
Before his voice could be completely finished, the apple tree that had worked hard to miss him died.
At this time, he came to another apple tree.
Say to the apple tree, "Look, the apple tree doesn't listen to me, and it will die. You must work hard. Only with me can you survive."
However, after watching everything throughout the whole process, I felt something was wrong.
However, it has no specific concept for all this.
It did not agree with the humanoid creature, picking fruits.
Shaking the leaves and refusing.
However, when the fruits filled the entire tree, the man actually climbed onto the tree and picked all the fruits one by one.
He said while picking, "If it weren't for me, would there be sunshine in the sky? Will there be rivers on the ground? Can you grow? I've picked all your fruits this time, and I'm punishing you."
The tree was very depressed in the sun.
However, in frustration, it made a decision.
Another year has passed, and it is the harvest season again.
A whole year, a humanoid creature that did nothing was found at this time.
"Why don't you have a single fruit? I think you have lost your value as a fruit tree."
He waved his axe and cut down the entire apple tree.
Then, he used the body of this fruit tree to split into many wooden boards, and used these materials to create a "fruit forest" in a place where the fruit trees could only vaguely see.
After he came back, he said to the fruit tree beside him, "Look there, there are many new apple trees there. If you don't pick up the fruit, I'll go there and eat it. You'll be cut off."
The fruit tree, who heard his words, was so scared that it made a trembling sound of "Sasha".
As a result, that humanoid creature repeated these words every day like chanting scriptures.
By the end of the year, during the harvest season, the fruit trees received a total of 150 fruits.
"Look, you only have 150 fruits. Which fruit trees there are more than 300? Why can't you work harder?"
The fruit tree is very aggrieved, it has done its best.
However, it is afraid that it will be cut off as well, so it can only work harder.
As a result, in another harvest season, more than 300 fruits can ripen immediately.
However, it died.
Declined before dawn.
The humanoid creature who collected sour fruits said, "Look at you, you are becoming less and less useful. It's really worse than the next generation. If you haven't yet had a fruit, you'll die. Is that true?"
He cursed and chopped the shriveled fruit tree corpse into firewood and threw it into the fire.
"Listen, if you don't bear fruit, this is your end."
The fruit trees looked at the axes shining with light in the sun. Although they felt very angry, they still agreed.
They are still continuing to make fruit, and the books with the least fruit each year will be cut down and burned in front of the trees.
While facing the burning system at the end of their woods, they also have to compare the total number with the distant orchard.
Life is hard and sad.
There are many small fruit trees that have just grown up, but they have become shriveled before they have reached the age of fruit.
And more and more human creatures are reproducing.
Their demand for fruits is also increasing.
Many of them also began to teach the fruit trees.
"I am the fruit that I care the least. The happiest thing I have ever done is to serve a fruit tree. I..."
There are more and more people like this, but the pressure on fruit trees is getting greater and greater.
Suddenly one day, the fruit trees at the far end suddenly came to a close distance.
These fruit trees bloom more than them, bear more fruit than them, and even more.
Some humanoid creatures announced in front of them with great fanfare, "The fruit trees here are going to change their varieties."
The frightened fruit trees can only work harder to squeeze themselves and the land.
And those humanoid creatures seem to have invented a device that can always keep light.
They let the apple trees bathe in the sun and receive more and more fruits.
But suddenly one day, the light of that night disappeared.
In the slightly dark night, they found that the more powerful fruit trees were gone at a distance.
In those places where fruit trees should exist, only a pile of barren land is left.
"this……"
"This is……"
The fruit trees rustled with anger, and it turned out that they had been deceived.
Those damn guys have been cheating on them.
Always doing evil things to them.
They became angry.
The earth began to tremble.
Countless protrusions appeared on the flat ground.
The plants stood up from the land.
It seems that each of them has become a war story.
Their branches tear apart everything that hinders their path.
And when they tore open a warehouse, they suddenly found that the warehouse was filled with rotten and deteriorating apples.
The smell of stench spreads across the sky, and the filthy flesh squirms with disgusting existences.
"This! These guys..."
They started fighting back.
They entered the city of humanoids and they began to break into rooms after room.
They pulled out all those who were sleeping soundly or doing strange things.
Use their thick branches to tear them all into pieces.
Their anger seemed to burn the entire earth.
To be continued...
