Chapter 338 Materials From Spirit Tree
When they separated, Alros asked,
"Those that answer your question?" his dry tone would have turned a raging river into a desert in moment notice,
Surprisingly, her answer was different than he thought,
"I am still not sure. How about you show me the answer again?" his eyes narrowed, Alros then continue the kiss. Oh, she knew the other party want to be kissed by him, so, he decided to give it to her.
The question he asked before was forgotten, as Alros prefer to focus on savoring the sweet lips of Mina.

Alros decided to inspect all the materials that could be obtain from the Spirit Tree. To this, he had both Fiora and Eliana to assist Lunisa to the former two having the second best understanding regarding plants and nature to the very Spirit of the Spirit Tree.
"So, do you think you can harvest all the resources but not to the point it will harm the tree?" he asked.
"Sure, it will be easy enough. Besides, most of the resources like the leaves and branches are easy to gather. While the timber would be harder to get, with the help of the Forest Drake and Greater Treewraith, we can get the larger branches, and it won't even do much harm to the Spirit Tree as it will took only a day in such rich environment to grow back the branches,"
Alros listened to Eliana explanations. While it is a surprise to hear that a branch of a giant tree can grow so fast, this is a fantasy world and he is a demon, so he decided to roll with it.
"So, what are the usage of both leaves and branches?" at that, the Elder Witch and Elf looked at him like he is stupid.
"What, I was not born like other Demon. In term of age, I think some child is older than me in regard of my true physical age, one counted by the time I was born," he said, defending himself.
He did not tell them his mental age is about 20 as it would force him to tell of him being someone from another world. Though the reason for it is because his last moment is not good, not because it could do any harm to his relatiom with them or to th people world.
"Well, the leaves have healing properties. You can dip it into water and it will turn into a Low Grade Healing Water. As for the branches, some of it can grow to a large size. So, they can be turn into staffs to better cast magic. Or, if you want smaller tools to cast magic better, turning it into a wand is also possible for the smaller branches,"
Alros nodded, taking note of the all the possible usage of Spirit Tree. While he will not sell them to the Astor Kingdom, there is no need to make their jobs harder, it is possible to be used as goods when he travel to other continents or other nations, where he might need to do some scouting and infiltration.
"Then, of the sap and timber. How strong are the timbers from the Spirit Tree compared to bricks," he could not imagine a large magical tree having timber that would be similar in strength to a regular tree.
"It is as strong as brick with the added advantage of being able to absorb magic better, reducing damages cause from battles between mages. That is why they are used in many Magic Academies," Alros nodded again, taking notes of it.
"As for the sap, they can be used as a catalyst for many magical items, as well as being used as a Healing Salve, which is better than using the leaves to make Healing Water. Then, there is the Dew of the Spirit Tree,"
Alros raised his brows at that.
"Dew? Those it absorb the mana of area around it to create the Dew?" that's the only way he could see how a Dew would be so precious. After all, regular dew is just the aftermath of water condensation in the atmosphere in the early morning.
"Yes, that is true. It will absorb the mana in the area to create a special Dew. It is also called Mana Dew and it is used to make High-Grade Potions and Medicines," Fiora said.
"Hhmm," Alros took it all into his head.
"Are there any other resources that can be obtained from, the Spirit Tree?" the Archdemon of Lust asked.
"There is the Spirit Tree Fruits. It also shortened to Spirit Fruits. Eating it could make one stronger, permanently. Of course, the increase in strength depends on the person. If a weak person eat it, they will become strong. However, if strong people eat it, they will become slightly stronger.
They can also be used to make Potions. In fact, they could work for some of the Potions Mina wanted to make, one that increased specific attributes," Fiora exclaimed, her eyes shining in delight at the thought of helping one of the younger witches.
Alros tried to hide his smile. It is one of things he appreciated with the green-haired Elder Witch. She always does her best to care for those younger than her.
In fact, if not for him not being as attracted to her in the emotional part, he would have taken him as a lover.
Unfortunately, his attraction to her in line with her body and ability, and there are very few similarities between them, unlike him and Mina, so she had to just be one of his women.
Though, that does not mean he could not give her preferential treatment now and then.
"Hhmm, are there anything else from the Spirit Tree? Rare resources of any kind?" he asked again.
"Well, that's all we knew off, but we can try to cheeee-" her voice turned high pitch when his hand drifted to her ass, giving it a good groping.
"Oh, we can," he said in a sultry tone, "Right after I have some fun with the three of you," three people with the greatest affinity to nature, being ravage inside the Spirit Tree.
It would make a very good story for those interested in reading it, won't it.

After solving another chamber, which thankfully can be cleaned easily, Alros hugged the three women, all of them on top of him, and current sleeping.
He caress their backs and brushed their hairs before turning towards the direction of the Astor Kingdom.
Subconsciously, he licked his lips.
"I wonder, how great the bounties a nation would have?"
