Chapter 173 – Wires (1)
*
A ruin that may contain the key to the White Witch’s seal.
The name of the city, now in ruins, was ‘Shambhala’.
It was the capital of an ancient kingdom.
The witch said that the sealing sphere was a gift from the god Asmodeus, the emperor of the ancient kingdom.
Originally, the Sealing Orb belonged to Asmodeus, so there is a high probability that the key is in the ruins of the imperial palace in Shambhala, the capital city.
In other words, he found out where the key to the seal was likely to be. The problem was… It was too far to get there.
Above all, the timing was not good.
The second black tombstone has finally been destroyed, leaving the last black tombstone behind.
There’s no way they’ll back down as easily as the last fight.
Lina had a serious expression as if she knew that too.
“You must not let your guard down until the very end.”
Lina, who was forced to lie on the bed because of the worried party, said. Anyway, Rina has nothing but worries whether she sleeps or wakes up.
“They…There’s no way they’ll take it this easy. They’re probably gathering their strength and waiting at the third black tombstone closest to here.”
“…”
“Everyone will have to be prepared.”
It was as soon as Lina’s words were over. It started to get noisy outside.
The village was in an uproar as if it had been attacked.
“It’s an enemy raid! Go, monster troops are coming!”
At the same time as that voice, a bell with a dangerous feeling resounded throughout the village.
It was the sound of a bell ringing when the village was in danger.
Outside the window, I could see the villagers running away in confusion.
Lina got out of bed and jumped out the window.
There was no time to dry or do anything. Guess who isn’t a warrior.
It was when the party was about to jump out of the window following Lina.
Kerry stood in her seat, pondering.
“Seobang-sama? Are you not going? It’s better not to go…”
“No. I’m going. Natasha. Rather, an attack at this point. I’m a little concerned about the timing… Let’s go to the scene.”
Natasha jumped from the window with Kerry in her arms. A string of other people followed her.
It was when she arrived at the noisiest part of town.
Lina stood in front of her enemies her, her elemental sword planted in the ground.
It was a beautiful warrior who could only come out of a fairy tale.
‘An army of monsters…’
What she said was correct. It was truly a monster unit. Even at a glance, you can see guys armed with heavy axes and armor.
Hundreds of armored ghouls stamped their feet at the same time as if threatening them.
The ground thumps and thumps.
I felt a sense of intimidation.
Then the trumpet sounds. At the same time, the excavation of the orcs suddenly stopped. The training is good too.
Just then, a man who appeared to be of high rank came out and shouted.
“Are you warriors!”
The appearance of the guy who came out as the captain was terrible. It looked like something out of a horror movie.
His skin his was parched, and his lips his were missing, exposing his gums and teeth and making a grating voice.
‘Please. Is there no good-looking guy? I hate horror.’
Lina answered, not caring about his hideous appearance of his.
“Yes! I am Lina Knightley. She is the warrior of the goddess Elpis.”
As soon as the hero’s name was heard, the goons in her unit shouted and threatened.
It was a bizarre voice, but there was no one in the party who would be stunned by that level.
“My name is Balkan! I will convey the will of our great creators who have high wills.”
“Tell me.”
“The Great Creators have said that if they do not stop interfering immediately, terrible things will happen!”
Natasha Ijuk, who was next to her, said.
“What a terrible thing! If I had the ability to do that, I would have done it long ago!”
By the way Balkan continued.
“Your body is limited. How many people do you think can protect the humans spread across the continent?
They said that if we don’t stop, countless lives on the continent will be sacrificed because of you!”
A slight tendon rose on Lina’s forehead.
Guys have always been like that. It threatened and grabbed the leash of other weak lives.
But in this life, they will not play as they please.
In my previous life, I had seen with my own eyes what kind of consequences the result of playing as they wanted.
Those uncountable undead. That terrible future could never be repeated.
The top priority was always killing them.
“Do as you please. We will not stop.”
“You’d better think about it? The Creators have far more troops than they seem…”
“No matter how many or how strong your troops are, I will not stop.
Say so to the old people who have grown old.”
Vulcan gritted it.
“You will regret it. Hero.”
‘Did I just come here to say this?’
They used sacrifice as bait to stop Lina.
However, there was no way that Lina, who had gone through her great war before her return her, would stop that much.
Then Balkan’s eyes turn to Kerry.
“The man over there. Are you the adventurer Kerry?”
You know my name. It’s such an honor.
“By the way?”
“What is your true identity?”
Vulcan had been instructed. He told me to gather information about Kerry from this meeting.
It was because of the Black Witch’s reaction to Kerry’s name his.
“The investigation of the other warriors has already been completed perfectly. But as for you, no matter how much we investigate, nothing comes out.
Where is your hometown and who is your family? I couldn’t find any trace of what he was doing growing up.
As if it had just fallen from the sky.”
That’s the right expression. It’s true that it fell from the sky.
“How could a man who was obviously an ordinary F-class adventurer with a reputation protect a party of heroes… Or was he hiding his power when he was an adventurer?”
“…”
“Say something. Adventurer. What is your identity?”
What should I say?
To the one who asks what he really is.
If you’re curious, it might not be a bad idea to let us know.
Kerry raised ‘stop’. She was the universal language of her longed-for hometown her.
“What is that finger? What does it mean?”
“It’s my favorite sign language in my hometown. It’s a hint. Learn it well.”
“…Don’t let that happen.”
Kerry giggled when he said that with a serious face. It’s more innocent than it looks.
The guys finished talking and went back. It seems that it was a kind of armed demonstration that led the troops.
The priest of Elpis said to subdue them even now, but Lina shook her head.
“If we fight with them now… The village will surely suffer.
Above all, I will definitely run into them at the last black tombstone. It’s okay if you don’t catch it now.
They’ll be obsessed with protecting the black tombstone, so they won’t have time to plunder other villages.”
There’s no battle
It was then. There were men approaching on horseback as if they had been waiting. What else is this time?
It seemed that these guys also had business for Lina, the hero. It’s popular. Our Lina.
“We are the messengers of the Empire. We have come to convey the words of His Majesty the Emperor, the rightful ruler of all nations.”
“I thought I was caught up in a fight with an evil group just in time, but fortunately the battle didn’t happen.”
“Hero, please set an example to receive the message from His Majesty the Emperor.”
The messengers spoke politely, but bluntly, telling them to kneel.
Lina shook her head and replied.
“I’m sorry, but I am not a subject of the Empire. I have no reason to honor the Emperor.”
The messengers seemed to have expected Lina’s reaction to her.
Perhaps the emperor heard that Lina was not Elena’s hero.
As if they couldn’t help it, they started reciting the Emperor’s message.
There was a lot of rhetoric and idle talk, but this was to summarize.
“Now… What did you say just now? An alien monster appears on the border right now… And is attacking the border of Astria?”
“Yes, hero. By the way, His Majesty the Emperor has emphasized that it is not the Empire’s fault.
It’s about not being swayed by the rumors of the world.”
The villagers were muttering. The villagers shouted in distrust of the Empire.
“If you didn’t tell me, why would such a monster attack the border!
You servants of the evil god Elena!”
When the villagers shouted, the knights got excited and started shouting and fighting.
The atmosphere is getting hotter. These looks must be what they were looking for.
Lina clenched her fists in her fuss.
‘Did this mean that if I didn’t give up… Countless sacrifices would follow?’
It was a threat to start a war right away if it didn’t stop now.
Lina raised her hand to silence the villagers. She just raised her hand.
As expected, Astria was the home base of the hero.
Lina, who made the people quiet, said.
“How is the situation at the border?”
“…Not good. Numerous undead that have never been seen are rising on the front lines.
One of them is said to be so huge that it can even lightly break down a castle wall.”
“…”
“Those guys haven’t attacked any country yet… But they say they roared while looking at the walls of Astria.”
“Can Astria’s soldiers stop them?”
“I’m a knight of the Empire, so I can’t know the details… But it’s probably going to be difficult.”
It will.
Since they’ve been preparing for the job for a very long time, they must know the forces on both sides very well.
There’s no way they can’t break down Astria’s walls.
‘I’m angry about being swayed by them, but I have to stop them.’
If the walls of Astria were to collapse now, war would surely break out.
The fact that they haven’t broken the wires yet and are waiting is all in order to ‘attract’ Lina.
I know it’s an ulterior motive, but I had no choice but to go.
Because Lina was a warrior.
But she wasn’t too worried.
The fact that they used a force large enough to start a war meant that the number of troops defending the last black stele was reduced.
‘I can’t use my troops like this over and over again.’
However, their forces are not infinite. At least until the Black Witch awakens.
This means that if you stop this once, you will not have to worry about it.
“What would you like to do? Lina.”
Kerry seemed to be able to see Lina’s choice of her, but out of politeness she asked.
Rina said while looking at her innocent eyes of her.
“Of course I have to go stop it. We cannot allow a war to happen now.”
The other party doesn’t seem to disagree.
Kerry also assumed that if it was Lina’s judgment of her, she was right.
“Let’s leave right away.”
The messengers who heard Lina’s words spoke.
“We can lend you our horses if necessary.”
I’m willing to give up even my own words. Her mind her was ecstatic, but Lina shook her head.
“I will run. She is much faster that way.”
“Yes?”
Astonished knights.
That’s why mana servants can run faster than her horses her.
However, if you ran fast over that long distance, even if you were a mana user, you would inevitably get tired.
It was still a bit unreasonable, but there was someone who could make it possible.
It was Arwen.
“Princess Arwen. I ask for the protection of the wind.”
“Yes. The protection of the wind!”
The protection of the wind that makes your body as light as a feather will allow you to go to the border that is not too far away faster and easier.
In an instant, Rina concocted her plan.
First, Lina, Natasha, and Victoria, who are fast-footed, decided to start first.
“Hey. I want to go with you too.”
Natasha grimaced, but it was inevitable.
And the plan was that the rear supporters Kerry, Arwen, and Saint would follow behind them.
The old woman with bad knees naturally fell out.
For that reason, Kerry, Arwen, and the saintess. The three of them ran side by side through the forest.
The support team was slower than Lina and the others, but with the blessing of the wind, they managed to arrive on time.
In the meantime, there was a small problem, but Arwen, whose basic stats were too low, had a hard time running even after receiving the protection of the wind.
“I’m sorry… Kerry. Are you heavy?”
Thanks to that, Kerry ran with Arwen on her back. With the protection of the wind, this much was no problem. Because I lift and lift it every day. I feel strange.
“It’s not heavy at all. You are like a feather. Princess.”
Arwen blushed at Kerry’s words her.
Even though she looked at the saintess who was running next to her, not to mention. Those eyes. She remembered See you later.
Arwen seemed to think that being carried by Kerry was an opportunity, and she was enjoying skinship to her heart’s content her.
She pressed her breasts against Kerry’s back her and, fearing that she would fall, she felt Kerry’s body her.
‘How did our innocent princess end up like this…’
It feels like everyone in the party is getting more and more erotic.
It was in the middle of it. Arwen, who was sitting on her back, showed interest in her Kerry’s ear.
“Kerry. I’m sorry, but can I touch your ear her? It’s the first time I’ve seen a human ear this close…”
“…Follow your heart.”
It was as soon as her permission her was given. Arwen caressed Kerry’s ear her as much as she could.
“Human ears are…Really amazing.”
‘Isn’t elf ears more mysterious, as sensitive as erogenous zones?’
Kerry swallowed her words inside her her.
Kerry couldn’t see, but Arwen’s face her flushed red.
For elves, ears are as sensitive as their pussy.
In other words, touching someone’s ears was as bizarre as touching their pussy.
Touching Kerry’s ear her to Arwen felt no different than doing her lewd act to Kerry.
“I…Uhhh…Kerry-sama’s…Haaa…Ear…Heuuuuu…”
I can hear Arwen’s rough breathing clearly in my ears. Kerry had to pretend not to hear it.
