YM778.TV Chapter 312 Divine Rage
"GRAAAAH!"
The titanic beast\'s legs hit the Demon King from above using all of his weight, pushing him down into the bedrock and piercing through everything.
TRUUUUUUUMMMMM…!
The Demon King\'s arms began punching back at Acorn\'s legs, constantly trying to lift him up and thrown him away. The two titans continued clashing against one another, darkness and light spreading everywhere.
CLAAASH!
"Is this the actual Guardian of the Forest?!" Wondered the Demon King, without actually knowing this was Acorn, the little squirrel he had not even paid attention to before.
"GRRRRHHH…"
Acorn suddenly opened his jaws, as bright white light emerged from within…
The face of the Demon King quickly distorted in horror, as he gathered Chaos and quickly unleashed a beam of pure chaotic energy to counter Acorn\'s divine beam!
BOOOOOOMMMM!!!

(Planta\'s POV)
Before I could even stop him, Acorn changed.
He took those potions and ended something that he should had not!
Children are not supposed to risk their lives like that. I only agreed to bring him with my adventures because he said he would keep himself in the back.
I know… he wants to put his life on the line like we all do, but he has to know his value and that he would hurt more people if he died rather than if he ran away cowardly…
But I guess I am nobody to say that I am still here, ready to risk my life, to risk my soul getting destroyed…
"GROOOARRR!"
I heard his roars, as I felt like he might be able to pull it out.
However, that transformation is not something permanent, it will wear off in a few more minutes, and he will take a backlash, even. I cannot simply bear to see him like that.
I have to go help him!
I-
"Unggh…"
"Hahh… P-Planta?"
Suddenly, I heard the voice of Florie and Nieve, they woke up!
"Nieve! Florie! I\'ve already healed you, do you feel alright?" I wondered.
"Yes but… what\'s going on? Didn\'t we win?" Nieve asked.
"Well…" I sighed. "As you can see, the Demon King\'s fighting, Acorn is holding him off, but not for long…"
"A-Acorn?!" Nieve was as shocked as I imagined she would be.
"That\'s the little squirrel?" Florie wondered, looking at the titan Acorn had become.
"Yes… He drank dangerous potions that awakened his bloodline\'s powers and also made him a giant monster. Those potions take away his lifespan as a drawback, and also weaken him severely after their effects wear off. He\'s… such a reckless child." I sighed.
FLASH!
And then, right after I said that Titania appeared again!
"Planta!"
"Titania! You\'re back!"
"I quickly came back as soon as possible! What is going on in here?! The forest outside is…! Is…!"
"What\'s going on?" Asked Florie while panicking.
"It\'s terrible… the forest outside is in total chaos! The grass, the plants, nature itself has turned against all of us. Almost every tree has mutated into an Evil Treant and began attacking everything. Our Kingdom is being swarmed by them by the hundreds…" Titania said. "We are barely holding off!"
"What? The trees became monsters?!" I asked.
"Yes… the Miasma must have mutated them. So the Demon King\'s plans were to make a new vessel in this continent… It is certainly easier than bringing his whole body here…" Titania sighed.
"What can we even do!?" Florie panicked.
"Florie, you have to run away with the rest for now, this is too dangerous." Said Nieve.
"Yeah… I guess you should." I said while nodding.
"Meanwhile, we\'ll fight." Titania said. "I am already fighting with my body back in my Kingdom. It is very hard to maintain this projection while being awake, we can\'t do this for too long- Wait, what is that beast?!"
"Acorn…" I sighed. I quickly saw several Spirits appear around me, whispering me that the Familiars were all healthy. Just half a minute ago when they were all blown away I sent Lesser Spirits that came from Spirit Sprouts to go heal my Familiars. They were dragged to safety but they were all unconscious… I suppose they did as much as they could.
"That\'s Acorn?!" Titania freaked out. "I… I see… He awakened his bloodline? Squirrel-kin, despite being seen as weak and frail, are the descendants of a god. The tribe of this forest is the last one there is! To think Acorn found a way to awaken such power… Maybe this is what we needed. I know it is risky and all, but we have to risk it all. Acorn\'s emanating a powerful amount of Divine Power! Divine Power is the thing gods have, as long as he keeps fighting the Demon King, his Miasma is going to burn and evaporate. In fact, he seems to have grown smaller than I remember him!"
"Yeah, we fought a lot beforehand, my Familiars and I, we put all of our efforts into the fight and yet… we couldn\'t defeat him even then, he simply kept getting up, without end." I sighed.
"We can do something, as long as we combine our strength… Planta, the Great Spirit within you and… all these Spirits that keep coming, where are they coming from?!" Titania wondered.
"I am constantly spreading a Terrain using the help of the Great Spirit, Spirit Sprouts pop up constantly. It is some sort of Unique Power I acquired by being both a Farmer and a Spirit Magic User…" I said while looking around. Hundreds more of Lesser Spirits have appeared without end.
"With this much… surely, we can do it." Titania said. "We have to help Acorn, as long as he has that Divine Power, we could beat the Demon King."
"Beat him?! But how can we beat him?" Nieve wondered.
"Well, that body is not the real him, that\'s why we can… His body is weak, the more damage he has taken, the smaller his mass has become. He might had prepared a lot of power for his reserves, but he\'s ultimately running low… By merely glancing at him, I can feel it. He has a Crystalized Miasmic Core, much like the Miasmic Beasts we had been fighting… It is the source of his power." Titania said.
"You mean that as long as we break it, we can beat him?" I wondered.
"No… If we manage to break it, he\'ll surely die." Titania smiled.
