Even such a majestic pass could not withstand the impact of the Earth Dragon's huge body. The entire middle part of the pass collapsed completely, pressing on the dragon's neck.

For a moment, the earth dragon couldn't move.

According to Maglock's arrangement, Melissa led her men and immediately launched an attack on the head of the earth dragon.

The crossbow arrows that had already moved to both sides of the pass did not stop, and continued to cause effective damage to various parts of the Earth Dragon's body.

Maglock was about to join Melissa's battle, but suddenly found that there were two people on the dragon's back?

One is Saleh, and isn't the other the Miss Ruby that she is looking for?

But when he looked carefully, his heart stopped for a beat.

There was a long sword stuck in Ruby's chest, with a severed hand on the hilt...

......

------Opening------

"Hehehe...cough!! Just you? You're worthy! Ahem..." Saleh staggered up and sneered at Ruby who was motionless on the dragon's back.

"Uhhhhhhhhhhh!!"

Before Saleh could be happy for a while, a man holding a spear rushed up behind him along the dragon's back, roaring and piercing his body. Then he flicked the tip of the spear and threw Saleh, who didn't know whether he was alive or dead, to the ground. aside.

"Miss Ruby!"

Maglock didn't care about the beast's life or death, and quickly stepped forward, calling the girl's name.

Unexpectedly, the girl was still conscious. After hearing Maglock's call, she slowly opened her eyes.

"Mag...Lock..." The girl's weak voice hurt the knight's heart even more...

"I'm sorry...Miss Ruby, I'm sorry...I came too late..."

Maglock knelt down, gently took the girl into his arms, and spoke apologetic words...

"What...say...you...have been a big help..."

"Stop talking, Miss Ruby, if you persist a little longer, I'll find someone to treat you right away." Maglock said, but he didn't believe it himself.

Where do you find a therapist in a place like this?

"...No...No need...Don't worry..."

Ruby's figure becomes sometimes illusory and sometimes real...

"The one who should say sorry... is me..."

"Making an expected promise without authorization...hehe..."

"I lied to you..."

"Forget Ruby...just pretend she never...existed..."

Ruby's words were intermittent, but she didn't have the feeling of powerlessness after a serious injury...

But how could Maglock have the intention to pay attention to that kind of thing at this time? Seeing the girl's body becoming more and more unreal, as if she could disappear at any time, even this strong knight couldn't help but shed a tear at this moment.

"Maglock... you are a good man... you deserve a better future..."

"Stop obsessing...and move on...ok?"

The girl's words were extremely sincere, but the knight found it difficult to bear her kindness:

"...Why...didn't you promise that you wouldn't persuade me to let go of my obsession...didn't you promise that you would give me an answer? Why... ..Why......"

Hearing this, the girl showed her smile again.

"...because...I really lied to you..."

"I'm sorry, I can't go back to your country with you..."

"If there is a fate...one day..."

Before she finished speaking, the girl's body disappeared into the knight's arms like a bubble, leaving nothing behind...

......

A light rain fell in the sky at the right time, slightly dampening the knight's hair. He sat kneeling on the back of the dragon, which was gradually losing its vitality, for a long time.

Until a white figure came.

"Mr. Maglock...it's raining..." the white cat-eared girl said softly.

Maglock raised his head mechanically and looked at this demi-human girl whom he had met once before.

"It's you......"

It feels like she has never done anything, yet I always feel like I can see her everywhere...

"I think...she must not want you to be like this..."

The cat-eared girl said seriously.

"......Yeah......"

Maglock seemed to have thought of something, stood up slowly, and walked in a certain direction step by step...

The cat-eared girl also followed.

The man named Saleh was crawling like a maggot on the ground with his only remaining arm, leaving a long trail of blood behind him, which gradually formed a thin river of blood under the erosion of the rain... ....

"Saleh..." Maglock stopped the man.

"...Maglock...you..." I don't know what Saleh wants to say, but that is no longer important, no one cares.

Picking up the spear on the ground, Maglock walked towards the evil slave owner step by step.

Saleh tried his best, turned over, and looked at the lost knight with blood-red eyes.

"Why...this...expression...is really like a falling water..."

With a puff, before the word "dog" could be uttered, Maglock's spear penetrated Saleh's mouth and came out from the back of his neck...

Even so, Saleh is still not dead.

The natal contract made Saleh and the earth dragon live and die together. Before the earth dragon died, Saleh always kept his breath.

Maglock kept moving like this, and it continued like this.

Let Saleh look at him with mocking eyes.

After a while, the giant dragon behind him finally stopped struggling, and the man in front of him finally stopped breathing...

"Lord Maglock!" Melissa led her men over from the dragon's back and saw the scene in front of her...

Saleh's death was tragic, which made Melissa quite relieved, but she looked at Maglock again... There seemed to be something wrong with her expression.

What's even weirder is... Wu Yue is also here...

"Ugh......"

Maglock looked up to the sky and sighed, pulled out his spear, and left the scene without saying a word...

A chance meeting with a girl named Ruby gave Maglock a ray of hope when he was at the lowest point in his life.

The knight fell in love with this beam of light, knowing that it was just wishful thinking...

Now that light is extinguished, just like the light rain before dawn, it is fleeting...

The girl was indeed as she said, as if she had never existed.

But where will the knight's future life go?

"She must not want you to be like this."

The knight inexplicably remembered the words of the cat-eared girl.

"Stop obsessing...and look forward..."

The girl's smile just before she disappeared is still etched in my mind...

"Forget Ruby...just pretend she never...existed..."

...how could it be forgotten?

The girl will become an unforgettable regret in the knight's life... and become that touch of moonlight that is hard to touch...

The girl's unspoken words will surely be remembered by the knight for the rest of his life.

Miss Ruby is right...if you forget, you may live better...

......

The knight passed by the dilapidated pass and the deserted settlement market, and saw two horses tied in the stable.

"It's you..." Maglock knew them. He remembered every horse in the army.

Needless to say, you know who rode this horse.

Gently follow the horse's hair and brush the rain off the horse's body.

Looking at the glimmer of morning light on the horizon, the knight seemed to feel a little relieved.

Just then one of the horses snorted...

"I see......"

"It's time to return home..."
