Gigas Cedar

The Gigas Cedar (ギガスシダー) is a tree in the Rulid Village that blocks the way to the forest. It has bark that far exceeds the toughness of iron, bark which can only be cut down with a blade that has a similar strength, such as the «Dragon Bone Axe».

History
The «Gigas Cedar» grew long before the Rulid village was built. It was tasked to be cut down as a «Sacred Task» that had started more than three hundred years ago. Only about one out of four mel has been cut through.

Project Alicization
Eugeo and Kirito was tasked to cut down the «Gigas Cedar». At the time, they were the seventh generation. Its «Life» was at 235, 542.

Six years later, Kirito lands near the «Gigas Cedar», where Eugeo, now seventeen years old, is still cutting down the tree. Later, in a small adventure, the two retrieve the «Sword of Blue Rose», and with that, Eugeo and Kirito completely cut the tree down using sword skills in just five days.
