Soon after, another monster, similar to the kidnapper, appears from the same dresser looking for Milly, but is surprised to learn that she has already been taken away. The monster, Fluffy, then asks Terry if he would like to find out where his sister and the kidnapper are, and to follow him to the Kingdom of GreatTree. Fluffy and Terry both go into the dresser and Terry then finds himself in a tree so large an entire thriving kingdom is set within its branches. Terry speaks with the king and explains his situation, with the king suggesting that the best way to find his sister is to win the monster master's [[Starry Night Tournament]], as he will be granted a wish. Terry is then given a [[Slime]] named Slib to help him along, and the two set out to explore the many worlds connected to GreatTree to win the tournament and rescue his sister. | ||
