Not all who become Kin of the Lumenwood can handle the insight it provides.

Those who swear this oath become a Lumenwood that peers towards the sky, feeding phantasms in its luscious bed. Phantasms guide us and lead us to further discoveries.

very good chapter. A sacred tree that was parasitized, taken over and with it whatever divinity was once inside it was parasitized as well. Horrifying fate for those unlucky enough to earn its "favour".

how'd trypophobia lady kill the fella at the end?

Snu-snu
He was already pretty well dead.

It looks like she was in the final stage like her Granny was, and the infection went out of control. So the "cherry tree" burst out of her looking for nutrients, and had weakened already severely infected guy right there.

 

[Hikineet]

Thanks for the chapter.

 

[Arexty]

M-Maybe Monsanto were such bad guys after all...

I don't get how this connects to anything else.

I don't get how this connects to anything else.

I don't get how this connects to anything else.

It’s an interlude. It basically shows us that the main characters are not in fact the main characters: that weird shit and the end of the world continue apace and sometimes there isn’t anyone to investigate or save the day. And in the end, it’s foreshadowing Inubousaki’s fate. That no one was able to save her from the spirits and supernatural either.

It's sad, although she manage to eradicate the tree but she also die
