156 Chapter 156 - The Voice of Norland

“Mister Joshua, do you need anything?”

Tylene placed down her controller. Together with Ciri, she ran over to Joshua’s desk and sat down before it.

After two weeks, this frost elf had grown very close to Joshua. No, it was not only Joshua. It would be more accurate to say that she had grown close to all the people down in the Hearthstone Tavern below.

Especially Ynor. The frost elf seemed to be very fond of Ynor.

“How’s things going with the World Tree’s growth?” asked Joshua.

“Mmmm…”

Tylene summoned out the World Tree. Still only a seedling, the World Tree has yet to break out from the seed at the bottom of its stem.

After being summoned out by Tylene, the World Tree’s soft shoot curled back into the seed. Then, it rolled from Tylene’s shoulder all the way to the top of her head.

“Then, how long will it take for it to… grow a couple more leaves? I mean, when will it start growing again…?”

When Joshua asked that question, the World Tree that had just poked out from the seed immediately retracted itself back into the seed. Its action was very similar to how a cat will hide in a narrow place when threatened.

“About that, it might take ten years… or fifty years.”

Tylene gave Joshua a conversative answer. World Tree’s growth times were generally calculated in thousand years. To the elves that were able to easily live for several thousand years, it was not a long period of time.

To Tylene, fifty years was a period of time similar to a month in human time. The concept was similar to how humans would think about ‘It’s the end of the month, time to ask the boss for my salary.’

Tylene noticed how Joshua’s expression grew stiff. Carefully, she asked, “Fifty years should be a very short period of time for demons, no?”

“No. Let me tell you this in secret. We Chaos Demons are like humans; we’re a race that judges our time in a manner of tens of years. With my current lifestyle, I believe my lifespan would be even shorter than Ciri who’s sitting next to you.”

Joshua took a glance at Ciri who sat next to Tylene.

“I’ve been reminding you to go to bed early every day! You’re the one who refuses to listen!”

“Okay. Then, what if the World Tree is able to gain more Faith Energy?”

Joshua picked up the ‘Hearthstone Tavern Marketing Report’ placed on the table. That report was prepared by Mrs. Melina. She would make a new report every week.

That report has recorded how the sales for Tylene’s musical record was. As the promotion for the musical record was lacking, they’ve only managed to sell three hundred and seventy musical records so far.

If the amount of times the musical records were used to listen was increased two fold, it would only mean that Tylene’s singing was listened to seven hundred and forty times.

The Faith Energy from seven hundred and forty people will support the World Tree to grow one or two leaves within ten years. What if the amount of Faith Energy was increased to a hundred thousand people’s worth?

Moreover, this was only limited to those people listening to Tylene’s musical record only for an hour to half a day on the daily at most.

“I remember our race’s Grand Elder has once said that the lushness of the World Tree is determined by the number of people we have in our race…”

Tylene’s words were practically confirming to Joshua that the World Tree’s growth speed would be faster the believers it had. If the number of believers broke a million, it wouldn’t be an issue for the World Tree to produce over ten thousand leaves per acre.
