Liam didn’t answer.
It was just a dry face wash with a complicated expression.
Seeing that, Lane stood up from her seat with a grim expression on her face.
Even if I didn’t have to listen to the answer, I knew the answer.
Of course, even if you listen to the answer, your actions won’t change even if you don’t listen.
* * *
Lane confirmed that Liam was asleep and just stared blankly at the sky outside.
But, damn it, that huge tree obscured the night sky.
Then a spear popped up and flew to Lane’s side.
Lane looked at the window, narrowed her eyes and opened her mouth.
“what.”
-is it… … , it was strange that the aura and smell that I knew were mixed. You were of Harson’s blood.
“Do you remember me?”
– His appearance changed so much that I couldn’t recognize him. I didn’t know you would change like this.
Lane looked at Myrtane with a calm expression for a moment.

Myrtain opened her mouth towards such a Lane.
– Dragon King Leanon. I had him
“… … okay.”
-Why do you want to have me when you have inherited his power?
“To keep the promise I made with my grandfather.”
-is it… … .
“Myrtain.”
Lane opened her mouth as she stared at Myrtane with her narrowed eyes.
“Did you choose Liam?”
-… … No, as you thought, Liam chose me and I accepted. One, it doesn’t matter.
“What do you mean?”
-I know your heart now. You seem to think of me as a memento of Harson.
Lane did not deny that.
He just stared at Myrtane with his narrowed eyes.

Myrtain continued to speak towards such a lane.
-I can’t understand human emotions. As you can see, I am not human.
“Are you offended by thinking you are a thing?”
-no. i’m bogu A Noble Phantasm that can only think and speak because it is special. As you said, it’s a thing anyway. Therefore, although the human mind cannot be understood, I do not intend to deny it. I am well aware of the importance of promises.
“promise?”
Lane looked at Myrtane with eyes full of doubt.
To such a lane, Myrtane answered.
-Harson asked me at the last minute. to protect you
“… … is it.”
At that, Lane was silent for a moment.
Without saying a word, he turned his gaze away and looked at the empty forest.

Myrtain continued to speak towards such a lane.
-And that’s why I chose Liam.
“… … What does that mean?”
-Harson asked to protect you, but I could read his mind. A heart that never came out of your mouth. Harson wants you to be safe.
At those words, Lane’s head lowered slowly.
The corners of Lane’s lips, who had been staring at the floor, rose slightly.
It’s like recalling the past.
And towards that lane, Myrtane’s words continued.
As those words continued, Lane’s eyes began to tremble softly.
-I didn’t want you to awaken to a superhuman, I didn’t want you to fight villains, I didn’t want you to enter dangerous places like dungeons.
Lane’s head is raised slowly.
Her wide fluttering eyes turned towards Myrtane.
-He wished for your safety.
“… … .”
-That’s why I chose Liam. If I choose you, you will have no choice but to fight someone.
With those words, Lane’s mouth did not open.
When silence came, Myrtane quietly returned to Liam’s side.
I asked, calling out to Myrtain like that of Lane.
“Myrtain.”
-what?
“Grandpa… … , What did your grandfather think at the end?”
-… … .
At those words, Myrtane just stared blankly at Lane and opened her mouth slowly.
– You’ll know it well, even if you don’t ask.
With those words, Myrtane returned to Liam’s side.
Soon after, the light of the bonfire that had been illuminating the surroundings was extinguished, and darkness came.
* * *
the next morning.
Lane and Liam moved again to get out of Extinction.
However, Liam still looked like he was thinking with his arms crossed as if thinking about something.
“Well… … .”
She moans, narrows her brow, and thinks about something as if frustrated.
Then he took a deep breath and started to smile lightly.
It may seem light at first glance because the time to ponder is short, but I thought that this judgment was right.
Then Myrtane quietly spoke to Liam.
– Think more carefully, Liam.
“I thought deeply. And no matter how I think about it, I think this is better.”
– It’s not something to be taken lightly.
“It just looks light.”
Liam smiled and looked at Myrtane and continued.
“I am serious.”
-under… … .
With those words, Liam turned around.
He approached Lane, who was standing behind him.
“what?”
However, Lane’s gaze was directed elsewhere.
This one is for that lil chicken owl
Not noticing that Liam was approaching, he just kept looking back.
That’s when I felt embarrassed.
Lane’s expression began to harden unexpectedly.
“Hey, run.”
With those words, Lane suddenly started running forward.
“Uh, huh? what?”
Liam, puzzled by the appearance, started running forward as Lane had said.
He walked over to the side and ran side by side and asked Lane.
“What’s up?”
“Can’t you feel the magic behind you?”
“horsepower?”
I felt it felt.
Just like yesterday, there was a huge magical energy flowing from behind them.
That’s why I was walking in the opposite direction where I could feel the magic.
Lane added an explanation to Liam’s curious reaction.
“The energy of magic does not go away.”
“for a moment… … , no way?!”
“Something that emits that magic is moving.”
Liam’s expression hardened at those words.
I thought it was the magical energy that the dungeon emitted.
As I listened to her, I could tell that the situation was serious.
It meant that the beings emitting that magical power were living creatures.
Recognizing the situation, Liam hurriedly started running forward just as Lane had said.
widely! widely!
Even though he sprinted off the ground and ran fast, that magical energy did not show any signs of fading away.
Rather, it felt like they were approaching at their own pace.
-this… … .
At that moment, Leanon’s words were heard in Lane’s ears.
There was a sense of embarrassment in that voice.
Cuckoo Kung!!
And the situation happened.
A huge roar from behind and the ground shaking.
The moment he turned his head toward the back, huge piles of dirt were rushing towards Liam and Lane.
Liam, thinking that he would be buried in the dirt if this continued, immediately grabbed Lane’s arm and climbed onto Myrtane.
As it was, it flew into the sky, avoiding the huge waves of soil.
The two could notice a big change when they jumped over a huge tree to avoid the waves of dirt and flew higher into the sky.
Cuckoo! thud!
The roaring cumulonimbus clouds gathered and obscured the sun in the sky.
A group of giant monsters flying in the air, fearing something, began to run away in one direction.
Liam and Lane looked in the opposite direction from which the monsters fled.
And I knew the identity of that huge pile of dirt.
“Nonsense… … .”
“… … .”
Liam’s mouth opened wide, and Lane grunted—grinding his teeth.
A huge mountain was moving.
A huge mountain, exactly in the form of a beast.
An animal whose entire body is made of soil, with trees and grass growing everywhere.
The unimaginable huge monster was approaching Liam and Lane, silently shaking the floor.
thud! thud!
‘What the hell is that?’
Lane asked Leanon.
This one is for that lil chicken owl
Now that there is no need to hide his magical powers, he let go of Liam’s hand and flew into the sky.
Leanon answered Lane’s question.
– Fairy King Bahelsia… … .
thud! thud!
As the monster takes one step at a time, the trees in the lush forest fall down.
Soon after, the rich magical energy that I had felt just before erupted from the monster’s body.
The magical power had a dark green color that could be seen with the naked eye, and it soon began to cause phenomena around it.
saah… … .
The surrounding soil rose like a mountain and came to cover Liam and Lane.
Trees, flowers, grass, and vines began to grow from the raised soil.
The sight itself was beautiful, but the two instinctively decided that the phenomenon was dangerous.
Whoo!!
Liam and Lane immediately soared higher into the sky to avoid the dirt that was beating them. But before that, a huge amount of dirt covered the sky that Liam and Lane were trying to escape, and they were eventually trapped in a semicircular pile of dirt.
in the dark shroud.
Countless flowers bloomed on the ground and ceiling, and small particles floated from the flowers to illuminate the surroundings, creating a dreamy landscape.
However, even in such a scene, Lane could not move at all.
It was the same with Liam.
Cold sweat dripped down their foreheads.
Because they knew something was coming towards them.
The master of this rich magical power.
It flew up leisurely and was slowly approaching the two of them.
“I can feel Leanon’s energy.”
A woman’s voice was heard.
The owner of the voice slowly approached Liam and Lane with the flapping of their wings.
A woman with pale blue skin and a strange appearance with huge butterfly wings sprouting from her back.
Although it was slowly approaching Liam and Lane’s noses, they couldn’t move at all.
It felt as if death itself was approaching.
“is it… … , are you Leanon’s contractor?”
Fairy King Bahelsia.
She leisurely approached Lane’s nose and began to smile.
With a dazzlingly beautiful smile, he reached out and caressed Lane’s cheek.
At that moment, it was Lane whose mind flashed.
Whoa! fast-
“What are you?”
Lane took her arm caressing her cheek.
Her arms twisted and bent in strange directions, with a creepy bone sound at Lane’s ferocious power.
Still, there was no change in her expression.
Still with a relaxed smile, she continued.
“Did the king of men tell you to stay alive? But it is difficult.”
Slowly, her smile widens.
With an evil and wicked smile, Bahelsia continued.
“I have no intention of saving him.”
With those words, Bahelsia extended her opposite hand to Lane.
“Because one of the five kings cannot have more power. It could upset the balance.”
Saraak!
At that moment, countless stems rose from her hand and rushed through the lane.
thud!
“Wow!”
It was Lane, pushed by the rushing stems and buried in the soil that covered the surroundings.
Soon after, vines sprouted from the wall and began to bind her.
At that moment, Liam flew straight to Lane and started cutting the vines with Myrtane.
“hey! Wake!”
“ね!”
“I was thinking of going through it… … , is this still Leanon’s contractor?”
Whoo!
It was a woman who arrived in front of Liam at some point with those words.
“But, there are impurities in the king’s seat.”
Bahelsia, who showed a relaxed smile and a harsh impression different from before.
At some point, she reached out and grabbed Liam’s neck and began to give her strength.
Whoo!
In such a situation, Liam reacted immediately.
He used Myrtain to cut off her arm, and it was freed from his grasp.
However, even though her arms were broken and severed, she still looked relaxed.
I soon found out why.
rather than-
The stems of the ceiling began to descend and wrap around her broken arms.
At some point, the stem suddenly cut off and her arms began to regain their original shape.
“Everything is me here.”
Bahelsia said.
A fairy king with a body of nature itself.
She spewed out magical powers and began to overpower them both.
“Do not resist. Show no hostility and surrender obediently. Then I will give you a comfortable rest. But if you resist.”
Simultaneously with those words, huge stems began to sprout from the walls in all directions, including the ceiling.
The stems on all sides were towards Liam and Lane, and Bahelsia’s words continued.
“Don’t give me pain more fearful than death.”
Whoops!!
* * *
“Hey, can you move?”
“Ugh!”
Liam groaned and vomited blood and began examining his abdomen.
Abdomen with blood leaking.
As if he had pierced through a bad place, blood continued to leak out, and he began to gradually lose his mind.
“under… … .”
Liam sighed.
The ceiling, including the ground, literally counteracted the stems sprouting from all directions, but unfortunately, it was not possible to block them all.
Because I was careless, I was pierced in a bad place.
Even if you survive here, will you be able to escape from the annihilation?
“after… … .”
Liam calmed his breathing for a moment and squeezed Myrtain again.
Still, I gave my body strength to make myself stand up, thinking that I would try once before I die. Isn’t that better than doing nothing and dying?
At least, I thought I was going to die by struggling.
Liam slowly descended from the sky, staring at the monster that looked down on them.
He gripped the spear again and took a stance.
“You are still alive despite being hit, you are a strange human being.”
With those words, huge vines rose from her hands and squirmed.

Magical energy flowed from her body and filled her surroundings, while stems rose from everywhere, including the ceiling, and enveloped Liam and Lane.
“Would you like to see how far it moves?”
The moment she smiled cruelly with those words.
-Ahhhh!!
That was then.
from noblemtl.com
Myrtane suddenly shouted.
Liam’s gaze turned to Myrtane.
It was Myrtane who suddenly began to tremble as if he was shaken by something.
– It’s him!
“What are you talking about?”
Liam asked suspiciously.
However, Myrtane could not hear Liam’s voice, as if she was thrilled, or just cried out in praise.
– He is here!
That was then.
-Kooh!!
The howl of a huge beast that seemed to rip off its ears was heard.
It was obviously a huge cry from outside this space.
It’s like kukukung with a flurry full of pain!! There was the sound of something huge collapsing, and an earthquake began to shake the ground.
Cuckoo!! thud!!
As soon as the situation occurred, Bahelsia’s relaxed smile began to gradually disappear.
Her expression gradually began to change to bewilderment.
She looked back.
His subordinate, who was guarding his seat outside the space.
That huge creature lost its vitality in an instant and died.
Soon after, she noticed.
That something with magical powers equal to his from the outside was approaching this place.
At that moment, a change occurred in this large space.
saah… … .
All the plants that covered the inside of the space wither and wither.
The particles that filled the surroundings disappeared, leaving a dark silence.
“What is this… … ?!”
thud! Jeez – Boom!! Awesome!!
At the same time, with a roar, cracks began to form in the wall of earth that Bahelsia was looking at. Something was hitting the wall of solid soil.
A golden light flickered through the cracks and began to illuminate the surroundings.
Whoops! Cuckoo!!
In the end, the wall of soil collapsed without being able to overcome the power.
A boy emitting a brilliant golden light through the walls approached them with slow, leisurely steps.
An indescribable magical energy erupted from the hammer the boy was holding and began to illuminate the dark surroundings.
[He was here.]
said the boy.
It was a voice with a sense of intimidation, as if several voices were resounding.
And looking at the boy, someone panicked.
“ah! Ahhhh!!”
And the Noble Phantasm, not anyone else, praised the boy with a voice full of emotion and respect.
-Ahh! King.
