Chapter 709 Searching for the Winged Lion

"when……?"

Although Yaad thought the question was a bit strange, he still answered honestly:

"Just two days ago, the Winged Lion suddenly told me this prophecy in a dream. I actually didn't expect that the porters would find you, the prophet, so quickly."

The carriers are the ghosts that Fujimaru Ritsuka and his friends encountered. Most of them are citizens of the Golden Kingdom who have lost their bodies, and they are their only means of contacting the outside world.

Two days ago...

Hearing this, Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu couldn't help but look at each other.

In fact, when he heard the prophecy, Fujimaru Ritsuka was a little surprised.

After all, she and Mash are actually visitors from outside this world, and if their appearance could be predicted, then the other party must be a very powerful prophet.

But the prophecy that just appeared two days ago...it feels a little subtle.

However, it is obvious that Yaad cannot give too many answers to this question. I am afraid we can only talk about it after meeting the Winged Lion himself.

She continued to ask:

"Do you know how to find him?"

"If this is the case..."

Yaad pondered for a moment and said:

"If we just meet him, it would be easy. In fact, there is a familiar in the village that he uses for surveillance. Perhaps at this moment, he has already noticed the abnormal situation in the village and may come to check soon."

"——!"

When these words were spoken, Laos and the others were shocked and their expressions suddenly became a little nervous.

Yaad continued:

"But the opponent's power is too strong. The entire maze is like his limbs. If you want to defeat him, I think it's best to go to the deepest level of the maze to seek help from the winged lion. The winged lion may be able to suppress the opponent's power."

Yaad's suggestion was indeed very pertinent, but he might not have imagined the power of Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu, so Laos and others subconsciously looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka to see what she planned.

"Um……"

Fujimaru Ritsuka was lost in thought.

She was not afraid of meeting the other party again, but was worried that the other party would not dare to show up and that the villagers here would be implicated because of their affairs.

So she asked:

"If the mad magician finds out that you are in contact with us, will he retaliate against you?"

Yaad couldn't help but let out a wry smile and said:

"When we helped grandfather escape secretly, all those he suspected of being involved were executed and turned into ghosts, even my father..."

In other words, Hisser will not show mercy to them just because they are citizens of the Golden Kingdom.

"I see."

Hearing what Yaad said, Fujimaru Ritsuka quickly made a decision and said with a smile:

"Then let's go look for the winged lion first."

Upon hearing this, Yaad's eyes suddenly lit up and said:

"Ms. Ritsuka, do you agree?!"

"?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka was stunned for a moment, then realized that he was probably talking about the situation just now, and smiled apologetically:

"The Crazy Magician was originally our target, but... I'm sorry, I may not be able to become the new king of this country."

"Eh? Why?"

"Um……"

Fujimaru Ritsuka scratched his cheek and said a little embarrassedly:

"Actually, Mashu and I are just traveling this time. We will go home after exploring the maze, so we probably won't be able to stay here forever."

"......?"

tourism?

Explore a maze?

Can't inherit the throne because you have to go home?

Everyone found it difficult to understand this statement for a moment. On the other hand, Yaad really could not accept such a reason for rejection, and his expression looked a little resentful.

Due to the urgency of time, Yaad finally decided to put the dispute aside for the time being and discuss it slowly after Fujimaru Ritsuka really defeated the crazy magician.

The winged lion is sealed in the deepest level of the maze, which is the eighth underground floor. Hisser's home is also there, so saving the winged lion is not an easy task.

Fortunately, since King Delga fled the village, Hisel has been wandering around the maze every day looking for him and does not stay at home for a long time. This gives them the opportunity to find and rescue the winged lion.

After explaining all this and having a simple meal, Yaad personally led them to a cave entrance at the back of the village. At the same time, many villagers prepared various meats and vegetables for them as supplies.

"Enter from here, and the porters will take you back the same way."

Same method...

Sensi's expression turned a little bad, but there was no choice at the moment, so Laos smiled and said:

"Anyway, thank you for your care."

"Ah."

Yaad smiled and nodded, and said sincerely:

"Well, I wish you a safe journey."

……

...

"Ah——!"

There was also a dizzying feeling, accompanied by a strong sense of weightlessness, and everyone fell from the air screaming.

Ritsuka Fujimaru and Mashu, who had no idea of ​​the teleportation, rolled over to the ground lightly and subconsciously began to observe the surrounding environment. Soon Mashu discovered something unusual.

Before they left, they were on the street, next to them were the ruins caused by Fujimaru Ritsuka's attack, but now next to them was a passage, and the ruins had disappeared without a trace.

"This doesn't seem to be the same place as when we left. Has the terrain changed again?"

"no."

The ghost who had not yet left explained:

"This is the entrance to the sixth underground floor. We can only send you here."

"The entrance to the sixth underground floor?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka was a little surprised and delighted, then smiled and said:

"Thank you."

"You're welcome. I hope you succeed."

The ghost bowed slightly and then disappeared again.

"If that's the case, then..."

At this moment, a figure suddenly rushed out and crawled on the ground like a wild beast with its fur standing on end. It was Ma Zuimu, who was accidentally taken to the land of gold with them.

The other party looked at them warily and asked in a deep voice:

"Where is this place?! What have you done to me?!"

Although the opponent looked dangerous, no one was nervous when they thought of the kitten-like appearance he showed in the Land of Gold.

Malucier even grumbled a little dissatisfiedly:

"I took such good care of her just now, but now she's turned against me..."

"Ah, you finally woke up."

Fujimaru Ritsuka asked with a smile:

"Don't you have any memory of what happened during this period of time?"

"During this period of time...?"

Ma Zui Mu had a suspicious expression, but the next moment, a wave of memories suddenly came to her mind, including how she had hugged Malucel like a spoiled child all the way, how Fujimaru Ritsuka had fed her with dried fish, how she had been patted on the head, and how Malucel had even taken care of her along the way...

"——!!!"

Ma Zuimu instantly got furious, holding his head in his hands in disbelief, his expression extremely devastated, and he buried himself directly into the ground, falling into a state of downtime.

The experience just now could be said to be social death for her.

Everyone was a little amused and confused when they saw this. After a while, Fujimaru Ritsuka continued to laugh and said:

"So Miss Mazuki, can we talk?"

"If you don't want to say anything, we'll just keep going."

After hearing what Fujimaru Ritsuka said, the other party finally showed some reaction. After a while, a muffled voice full of awkwardness finally came:

"…Izuzumi."

"Mazuki is just a code name, my name is Itsuzumi."
