[Thank you for your hard work, everyone.]

I spoke to the retainers who had gathered in one place.

[You've really done well to make it this far.]

The condition of the retainers was far from ideal.

It had been three months since the World Tree began to reveal itself on Earth, and the retainers had created a path toward the central dimension of the World Tree by following the dimensional map.

During that time, the retainers had managed on little sleep, pushing through the mission.

It wasn’t even unusual that they hadn’t been able to bathe for several days, and among those who had broken their limits, there were many who had gone without sleep for a week.
