Synopsis

The protagonist, after experiencing a strange internal heat, discovers a purgatory grass seed he threw earlier has sprouted and a peach tree he has been training near is bearing fruit. He then meets the mountain god, Gwanak, who explains the weakening of the mountain's energy due to past actions and reveals that the tree's fruit might be the legendary 'Peaches of Immortality'. They are interrupted by an impending threat of people who are coming to seize the tree's power, and the protagonist prepares to consume a fruit to gain power to protect them both.
