The Invading Threat

In the dream, I saw a figure of a family I could never see again. To be precise, the families of the days when they were still human.

“sister.”

The younger sister, whom she loved the most, runs to her and smiles. Lucia also smiled at him. It was not known whether this was a dream or the underworld.

She is not a person who cries often, but tears flowed as much as now. The woman opened her arms and tried to hug her brother. He smiled at the younger sister who had followed him the most among the siblings.

“Why didn’t you ask?”

But there was nothing caught in his arms, only his voice remained. The younger sister was already gone, and only the voices that remained in her memory continued and continued.

did you ask? did you ask? did you ask? did you ask? did you ask? did you ask? did you ask? did you ask? did you ask? did you ask? did you ask? did you ask?

“Huh!”

With a sigh, she jumped up. My body was still trembling. My heart was pounding. As it flowed, tears were clearly visible on the corners of her eyes.

Aside from Grimudo, who was already sorry to call him a demon, the brave hunter, who was not afraid of any demons, now turned into a frightened rabbit and buried his face in his lap.

“Lucia. Stop it now, calm down. If you don’t, we’re already fucked.”

When you wake up from a nightmare, you see another nightmare. This time, it’s a nightmare with no sign of waking up.

This nightmare called life seemed to be coming to an end. The current situation, needless to say, is despair itself.

– Porreuk.

A lark, who used to be an Araidel, flew here and there while being trapped in a cage made of magical power. Sometimes he pecked at the magic field with his beak.

No matter how you look at it, none of his human form remains. If the body becomes an animal, the mind also becomes an animal, perhaps it is natural.

Parnell looked at the bird and sighed. From a former princess to a wizard of a warrior party, she is now a woman tied up and locked in a cage.

She herself wondered what would happen next. What is certain is that it is unlikely to change for the better.

“You know how shocked I was when I suddenly fell down? Urinelle went hunting for a while. Still, I have to eat something, get up and take that saint over there and go back to the empire.”

The youngest wizard in the tower was patting Lucia, who was taller than him, and comforting him. Of course, it was no use.

Lucia was expressionless, almost as if her soul had been taken away, and she didn’t respond when touched.

Not even close, hope was right next to her. The feeling of realizing it only after the light had left, and actually after I had driven it out with my own hands, was truly terrifying.

“Is it so shocking that the power Kyle had left to lift Grimudo’s curse?”

Parnell, ignorant of the situation, was only scratching the inside. She wasn’t a mind reader, and she didn’t know the secret circumstances of the Weston family, so it was just frustrating why Lucia was doing this.

‘I, I am not wrong.’

The woman bit her tight lips.

‘Because other people didn’t know about it. I can’t stand the fact that the reputation of the family has fallen to the bottom. But if the demons know that our clan has become like this…’

Externally, the Weston family is known to have been severely damaged by Grimudo and left with a broken spirit. Only the archbishop-level figures of the Trinity Church are silent even after understanding the truth.

Even these fellows next to them did not know that they could have become animals except for Lucia. She desperately tried to hide the wealth of her family, and she did not tell anyone. To Lucia, to Parnell, and, of course, to Kyle.

Even so, they have been on an adventure together for a while. I’ve been hanging out with them almost every day, but couldn’t figure out what kind of person Kyle is?

If you had just said one word for help, would that person be the one to say no to? Without hesitation, he would have offered a hand of warmth.

Kyle is the person who sincerely helps even the old woman who has nothing and has a sore back and has few days left to go. He wants nothing in return for that help.

So, in order to ask for help, a single word about whether you could help in dispelling Grimudo’s curse was enough. The reason he didn’t say a word was simple.

She is,

until now,

for so many hours,

never once,

He didn’t think of him as a fellow on an equal footing.

It is like no one who speaks weak words to someone less than himself or to someone below him. No one confesses their ugliness to such a person. So did Lucia.

Someone who came to the party simply because he was lucky enough to know him.

My first impression of Kyle was just that. Compared to the Priests of the Three Gods, who radiate brilliant light and boast of their splendor by making weapons with divine power, they called miracles too small.

Making fountains, lighting candles, pulling feathers… No kidding, what is this?

So, in my heart, I may have despised him. He may have been the first to propose to let him go.

He didn’t know and didn’t want to know what kind of power that little candle had, or how great Sam’s potential was.

Without the need for anything else, they would have returned to human form if they had just pushed and plunged their families that became animals into the springs they had seen so many times.

Opportunities have come to her so many times that it is difficult to count them. The woman didn’t even know it was an opportunity and threw it all away.

When you look back on the years that have gone by now, you face how foolish you were. But past opportunities, opportunities never come back.

When I woke up, all the candles were out and the fountain was all dry. Parnell opened his mouth slowly.

“Do you remember where this is? That’s where the old lady lived. The old lady who gave us that muddy water. Do you remember when Kyle left a candle here and dug a spring?”

At that time, how can I forget the old woman who fetched water from the well with a regretful expression saying that this is the only thing I will serve her.

The water she gave was pure muddy water, and the only one who happily drank it was the common priest. He drank the water and made a spring in return.

Thanks to the old man with a bent back and lameness, he was able to live a healthy life until the end of his life. When the old woman died, the candle, which had no reason to light more, went out.

And the spring also lost its spiritual power and became muddy water mixed with soil and sand. The time of miracles is over, and only the cruel reality remains. Now, all those who longed for a miracle have already passed away.

“Kyle… where is Kyle now? I need to find him…”

Lucia groaned and stood up. Because the Jaheukganggi eroded his whole body, he wasn’t in very good shape right now. Even after recuperating for a long time and trying to push Kang-gi down, I had a sudden intuition that I would never be able to get back to my heyday again.

In the decisive battle at the North Pole, the light emitted by Kyle melted this hard purple black energy and discharged it at once. So I didn’t think much of it at the time, but seeing it in person, the power was beyond my imagination.

Now I had to admit it. From the beginning, they did not even have the right to stand in front of the Demon King, let alone a match with Grimudo. It was only possible to stand in front of Kyle because of Kyle.

The person who can melt the black river that has eroded his body and bring his family back is now unknown. The information that his last act was Larpentia is of no help.

Think about how wide a continent is. How easy is it to find someone there?

It’s as difficult as finding a grain of sand on the beach, and it’s not like it was when I was looking for it at will. Whether or not she would be able to find that person again in time, Lucia was heartbroken.

‘I was stupid.’

He was so frustrated that he finally shed tears.

‘I never thought of Kyle as a colleague, so why would I want him to recognize my difficulties? Of course it can’t be.’

Unless Kyle became a mind reader, there would be no way that Lucia would have known about the tragedy of the Western family that Lucia was keeping secret. If you don’t tell me, of course you don’t know.

Who can you blame for not asking for help? Do I even need to think about it and come up with the answer?

“Did I say that?”

At that moment, the walls of the mud hut collapsed with a bang. The hut tilted, and Parnell hurriedly took Lucia and broke the wall and escaped. I didn’t forget to pack a cage in the midst of an emergency.

There was astonishment on her face. His mental state was not sane, and his magical state was not very good either. Because of that, what I should have known earlier, my reaction was delayed so much.

“All of you bow your heads before me, Your Majesty. Please, just save my life. The day will come when I will beg you.”

The warrior who had left for hunting, Urinelle, fell down with a groan. It was she who just hit the wall of the hut as if it were a shot put. Although Harmael grabbed her by the neck and threw it, she couldn’t resist.

“Harmael…”

“It seems that day has come sooner than you think. I hope to see you again like this But where is the saint? Did I leave you and run away?”

Maje, Harmael, who came through the door that Grimudo opened, looked around to find Arraidel. It would be great if only a saint could be caught and captured.

If they take the saint as a hostage, no matter what kind of threats they make against the Nemi religion, they will have no choice but to obey Harmael’s will if the demands are not too high.

Suddenly, the gaze of the mage turned to the lark that was trapped in the magic field. The moment she saw the lark’s blue eyes, she gave her a look of disbelief.

“really…?”

What the hell happened to that guy named Grimudo?

Did you change the saint, who was given too much divinity to the point where you could even hear the expression of being the incarnation of a goddess, into a lark with just one curse?

I didn’t even feel fear anymore because of that power. This is because the sense of defeat that we must never fight against Grimudo has already reached the bone marrow.

Even if he succeeded in unifying the continent, he would never touch the North Pole, and if there was a conflict of opinion, he would unconditionally bend his opinion. When I made up my mind like that, I felt at ease. It’s not very good to live as a second person forever, but how many people can’t even do this.

“Ha, ha, what is this? Taking them hostage like this doesn’t seem like it will work.”

If you take as hostage a lark that is not human, and even a bird that has no hope of ever returning as a human, to threaten the Nemi-gyo, they will listen to you very well.

Harmael sighed. Of course, he didn’t even dare to be angry with Grimudo, the culprit behind everything. In the end, I swallowed only my anger and glared at the Hero Party.

“Yeah, what. Chicken instead of pheasant. You, too, will have value as hostages in your own way.”

He covered his mouth with the fan he was holding and laughed. But those eyes were not smiling.

She is in a very bad mood now.
