is really nice to meet you.
Thatâs probably what Calian would have said.
It wasnât just empty words, it must have been said with genuine sincerity. If it had been Euria, she would have asked if she had come to search for her, and if it had been Lemain, she would have said that she was coming to find me. Of course, Planz didnât even know that the bull-like Lemain could say such things, but he had listened very carefully to Euriaâs words.
But in fact, if you get to know Plants, he grew up surprisingly well. The only harsh words that he had no idea what the âtwirling his fingers by his templesâ meant were the peas that he heard from Lennon, who kept his mouth shut when he thought his superiors were not around. However, there is one exception: I learned the word âbarkâ from somewhere else.
Anyway, what would Plants, who grew up like that, do after hearing Euriaâs words to Zeonâs warriors?
Of course I learned it.
Although I was secretly surprised, I had worked very hard to learn when to use such words. Kalian, who was worried that my young and sensitive older brother, who was growing up, might learn some harsh words and return them to him, made all the efforts he made to always say only nice things to his mouth.
Let us not have any doubts about whether the words Calian had spoken in front of Plants were really just pretty words. Kalian is very proud of his efforts.
Well, anyway.
The peas that Kalian had been growing with so much effort have now opened their eyes with great enthusiasm.
âRashid Briesen.â
The moment has come to use the fresh expressions I learned from Euria. Not another guy but Rashid Briesen has appeared, so if not now, when on earth will I ever use that word?
Itâs not like I havenât said harsh things in my life, so itâs not difficult. All you have to do is turn your head towards the place where you just heard the voice, open your mouth, and say something that fits the situation.
Are you here because you want to search now?
âNowâ¦â
âItâs been a while. Nice to meet you.â
I couldnât do it.
âAh. I heard a somewhat familiar voice. Is it that bird?â
âI said it wasnât a bird. I donât think I remember.â
âBecause Iâm a bit busy.â
I couldnât continue.
This is why Aila and Rashid started arguing over the window on the wall opposite the door where Kalyan left. Thanks to this, Pea, who had prepared for a long time to say harsh words, uttered only two words and could not say another word.
Iâll tell you next time we meet.
At that time, I must say it first.
In this way, I keep increasing the resolutions that seem so far away from being achieved, like a habit.
âWell, I guess Iâm busy. Iâm wanted.â
âThatâs right. I know.â
âI know.â
âBecause itâs a bird?â
âNot now. When I was a bird, I wasnât interested in you.â
âOh, thatâs a bit disappointing.â
An argument ensued.
âAnyway, have your injuries healed?â
âIâm here because Iâm healed. I couldnât die before you die.â
âThank goodness. I was worried I was going to die.â
âI tried to kill you, but you lie well.â
âI tried to kill it. I didnât know it would fall on its own.â
âAh⦠Are you worried that I might die alone instead of in your hands?â
âYeah. Itâs not fun. That is.â
âThen there must be a lot of boring things going on these days. Thanks to your father and our prince, it seems like all the plans you made are going wrong.â
âJust a little.â
âIs that why you came? The plan went wrong.â
at las.
I finally intervened.
Plantz spoke out the window, where nothing was still visible. Then, after a moment of silence, Rashidâs voice came from outside.
âOh my gosh, I need to meet you face to face and say hello to you, but the situation is such that I canât say hello properlyâ¦â
âI asked.â
âOh yes. Thatâs right. You asked.â
The laughing voice returns.
âAnd what did you ask? I forgot. I donât know if you know this, but Iâm not that bright.â
One corner of Planzâs mouth rose.
âThey definitely look alike.â
âAre you talking about my father again?â
âYes. Your father also said that to me.â
âI said that in a realistic way. You look just like me.â
âYou have to take after your father. I take after my mother. Isnât that natural?â
â Click.
A very small sound was heard from Ailaâs direction.
It was a high-grade magic bullet containing swirling flames that looked significantly different from the magic bullet that was said to have a narrow explosion range because it was cheap.
As I stared at it for a moment, I heard an answer from Rashid. But Plantz didnât hear that.
-Ssam!
â â¦â¦ Kwaaaaang!
This is why a sound louder than Rashidâs voice erupted.
âLean down. Glass shards will fly.â
As soon as I could take out the magic bullet, I heard Aelaâs leisurely words as she threw it out the window.
No, I mean.
Shouldnât you say something like that before you commit it? What on earth do Secretia people watch and learn? Could it be that the king, my younger brotherâs former brother, is like that too?
There was no time to ask these questions.
I had no time to adjust to the contradictory situation of being very tired and frustrated by not being able to say anything.
â Taaat!
Before the aftereffects of the explosion that blew through the window had even subsided, I saw Aila flying away.
Aila lightly stepped on something that looked like someoneâs elbow, jumped up, stepped on someone elseâs shoe, or more accurately, the white ankle bone inside that shoe, and walked away. After that, I lifted my body up by lightly brushing against something that I didnât want to make eye contact with for a long time.
Just like Kalyan does.
As if it is completely unaffected by weight and gravity.
â Hwiik!
After crossing the wide training ground without damaging anything on the floor, he stepped on the fastener of the iron bars and leapt like flying.
â Percussion!
Soon Aila placed her foot on the far window frame.
Then he jumped out of the window and disappeared.
The collarbone was clearly pierced and the side was torn.
This is Eila, who got to that point and fell under the building after fighting Rashid. If Calian hadnât grabbed him, he would have died already. Aila went out alone without any fear. To the place where Rashid was, who made even the blue-haired crazy wizard quietly retreat, saying that he was someone he could not deal with.
So really.
Those Secretia guys.
ââ¦â¦ under.â
Plantz let out a short sigh and closed his mouth. And then he moved after Aila and kicked his feet. There was a door right behind it, but Kalian might see it if you went through it. I might get addicted to harpy blood again.
However, since she could not float as lightly as Aila, she ran by jumping over debris on the floor that she tried not to step on as much as possible. I ran, forgetting for a moment what slippery things were getting stuck and stepping on under my feet.
â Tuk!
â Swish!
After that, he placed his hand on the window frame and kicked the floor.
Just like that, I jumped out through the window and got out.
â Kaaaaang!
Immediately afterwards, the sound of blades is heard.
âYou still like wasting magic bullets.â
âI donât have anything to spend the money on.â
As expected, Aila was there.
Rashidâs green eyes were seen as he blocked Ailaâs attack.
Ailaâs eyes moved as she heard the sound of the planz being pulled out. Secretiaâs sea-blue eyes were filled with reproach.
âI told you not to come out.â
âI didnât.â
âIf you didnât do it, you should have stayed inside.â
â¦â¦ okay.
I understand why my younger brother cares about that person.
âItâs been a while since Iâve seen you, my Majesty.â
Unlike Eila, who only moved her gaze, Rashid turned his head to look at Planz and bowed silently. Plantz frowned when he saw that relaxed look.
The reason Eila came out like this was probably because she decided to follow Plantzâs words. This is to avoid damaging anything in the training center further in case Rashid comes in. Iâm not the type of person who would go to such lengths for simple revenge or for Plantzâs safety.
â Kagagak!
The blades touching each other make a creepy sound.
Plantz, who had been watching the two of them not moving away even an inch, looked away for a moment. I was looking in the direction where Calian was, but I couldnât see the situation because it was blocked by the training center building. Instead, the harpyâs still screaming and the sound of the blade clearly convey that the fight is not over yet.
At that time, an unexpected sound was heard.
-â¦â¦Tingle!
This is the sound of Siona Hill, the chicken-eating elf.
Plantz frowned again.
Itâs definitely a welcome sound, but I canât say I like it.
no. Rather, it is not good. If Siona had come, the fight should have already ended. Calian should have come back. But doesnât it seem like he doesnât even know Rashid is here?
Since it was during the fight with the Harpy, Aela would never have called Calian through the communication ring, but an explosion would have been heard. He may have thought that the noise was the sound of burning evidence in the training hall, but he couldnât have known that there was no fire in the training hall after the binge drinking. Calian is not the type of person who would not notice that a magical bullet was thrown out the window.
If that were the case, they should have at least contacted me, but right now, Ailaâs ring wasnât shining at all.
âNo way⦠itâs just one.â
Was it not just one?
Calian is not the kind of person who would take this long to face a harpy again.
Or perhaps.
âAre you hurt?â
Are you hurt?
also.
â Kagan kang!
Planz, who had thought for a short time when Eila pulled out the sword blocked by Rashid and struck it again, took a step forward.
â Jump and jump.
With Sinasta still in its sheath, I walked between Rashid and Eila. He blocked Rashid, who was holding a sword, with his bare body and left Ayla behind.
He knows that his fighting skills are less than Ailaâs.
Aila not only handles a sword but also has significantly more fighting experience. Nevertheless, I did it.
â Jeopuk.
I put my feet on the floor and looked at Rashid.
I am currently using a better sword than Aila. I did not block Ailaâs path arrogantly or recklessly. It wasnât like he sacrificed his head arbitrarily, as Kalian had always thought. If Rashid, on a whim, sent a sword at his younger brotherâs ex-fiancé or at himself, he blocked the manâs face with water and went out, ready to pull out his Sinastar.
The reason I decided to go out in front again with that mindset in mind was because I decided that I needed to quickly resolve Rashidâs problem and look at the other side of the training center.
âsun.â
And one more thing. It was because I was confident.
Rashid, who came to Kalian and Siona in this situation, said he had no intention of killing or fighting Planz.
Iâm not trying to lift a sword.
âtalk.â
I came here to talk.
It also has a pretty fascinating story.
For example, a secret important enough to make him decide to take Grayâs life instead of lifting Rashidâs wanted order.
* * *
One way wizards catch harpies.
Cover the harpy with a mithril net to prevent it from moving. Then shoot the harpy until it dies.
Two ways for wizards to catch harpies.
They harpoon the harpy, place it on the ground, and tie it up. Then shoot the harpy until it dies.
Three ways wizards catch harpies.
It tries hard to avoid being eaten by the harpy. Then shoot the harpy until it dies.
The point is simple.
â Flap!
Magic doesnât work, but you have to deal with a guy who even has wings.
Therefore, Calian jumped up to where the harpy was and fought. It didnât matter how high the guy was, we lifted our bodies together and swung our swords.
However, since it is Kalian, it is a possible method.
So, if I were to ask Siona and Demirea whether I could provide a stepping stone for them to step on in the air, I would have to answer that it would actually be difficult.
-â¦â¦ Exciting!
It was difficult to forcefully move the aurors in the body until the less thoughtful Sispanian blessing had finished decoding.
So I stood there for a while and watched the fight.
Holding the beautifully engraved scabbard.
â Taaaat!
Fortunately, Siona was an elf who could move more lightly than a normal human. Wasnât he someone who moved and fought similarly to Calian even while injured?
â Kaaaaang!
Like an eagle owl falling from the sky to snatch a mouse, the harpy rushed to the ground with both wings spread back and extended its claws towards Siona. Siona, who had already been attacked several times, raised her sword and struck with her claws. You can clearly see sparks bouncing in the darkness.
â Cooâ¦!
Immediately, I heard the sound of something heavy kicking my feet.
A sound coming from behind the harpy attacking Sionaâs waist with its outstretched wings moving horizontally. Of course it was Demirea.
Demirea, who shook the ground much more heavily than the recent Calian, kicked her feet as if hitting the deep floor. Siona saw it over the harpyâs shoulder and thrust out her sword.
The harpy overlapped both wings to block Sionaâs attack, blocking her path. Demirea put all of her running speed, kicking feet, and body weight on the sword and lowered it.
â Suddenly!
The screams of the harpy that was attacked by Dmirea, which I had not paid any attention to until now, continue. Demirea quickly dodged away from the dripping blood and changed direction. However, the harpy moved much faster than that.
â Whirr!
â â¦Flutter!
The harpy twisted its body in an instant and spread its wings, just like Calian did. Then, he quickly lifted himself up and was out of range of Demireaâs second sword strike.
As if she had been waiting, Siona kicks her foot this time.
â Taaat!
â Kagaga River! Kaaaang!
Before flapping her wings even higher, Siona moved her body and jumped high, aiming for the harpyâs wings. At the end of the ceaseless sound of the bell, something hard touched me.
â Ugh!
A blue aura grows at the tip of Sionaâs curved sword. He struck the light-shaped sword as hard as he could towards the wings that replaced the harpyâs arms.
The harpy quickly drew back its wings and avoided the attack by a small margin, then swung its claws. Even at the moment it falls to the ground again, Siona holds out her sword and blocks it.
The sounds of screams and bells continued in a dizzying tangle.
â Coooooo!
â Slut!
As Siona stood up with both feet on the floor, the harpy flew at lightning speed and swung its wings. It flapped its wings and swung its claws as if aiming for that brief moment to regain its balance.
â Kaaaang! Kang!
Demirea came back as if she had been waiting and blocked Sionaâs path. Then, after blocking the continuous attack with the swordâs face, he raised it and deflected the flying foot of the other side. Instead of supporting the weight of the swords thrown together, he rotates his body once, from bottom to top and then again from top to bottom.
â Kaga River! Kaaaaang!
â Kang kaaang!
Attacked constantly.
While continuously blocking the Harpyâs attacks, if you get cut even once, you will die without any time to wait for treatment.
The harpy, who was floating off the ground and acting as if he was going to push Dmirea down, was pushed back. Then it rushed at me again, screaming loudly.
â Coo!
â Quaaaaaaaa!
A roar comes from the tip of Dmireaâs sword as it lunges at the harpy. Sionaâs blue aura rushed at me without any hesitation, disturbing my vision.
When the harpy jumps, Siona jumps with it and pulls it down, and when it lands on the ground, Dmireaâs sword threatens its life. The sound of the bell blocks the harpyâs cries.
â Patter! Patter!
Blood dripped from the harpyâs wound, which had been cut sharply by Sionaâs blue aura. Demirea saw that and got bitten. Then, after taking a long breath, he lunged again.
The harpy, who had already blocked the tip of Sionaâs sword with its claws, spread its wings. Then, he swung his wings in a sharp movement to block Siona. Siona bent down and used the sword held by the harpyâs foot as a handle to slide her body. Passing under the harpyâs feet, he quickly returned to his back and applied force to the tip of his sword.
The battle continues once again.
Even though he couldnât be as quick as Calian, who was not limited by height, the fight continued without being pushed back.
â Ugh!
The blue auror sharpens his blade.
Moonlight sparkles on the heavy sword.
â Boo!
â Kaaaaang kagagang!
The harpy that dodged Dmireaâs sword flew up.
And like an arrow that was fired, it rushed back. Siona rushed in front of him and cut off the harpyâs waist.
Tilt!
The harpyâs body stumbles for a moment.
Demirea, who had no intention of missing the opportunity, kicked her foot. He leaped as high as possible and struck with his sword with all his might.
â Crack!
A sword sinks into the harpyâs shoulder.
The sound of thick bones collapsing resonates deeply.
â Bwaaaah!
â Tinkle⦠Tinkle!
â Kaaaaaaaa!
Siona blocked the sharp wings that stretched out momentarily. Dmirea pulled the sword from the harpyâs shoulder and swung it with her whole body.
â Kagak!
The harpy blocked it with one foot and stretched out the other foot. As Demirea bent down to avoid it, a bright blue aura struck the harpyâs feet as it cut through the air.
â Kwakagakâ¦â¦ Suddenly!
The ankle of the guy who couldnât overcome the Aurorâs sharp blade was cut off. It was like inflicting another big wound on the guy, but I couldnât afford to worry about it.
Siona quickly stretched out her arms. Then he grabbed Demireaâs arm and threw it backwards. At the same time, the aura was wrapped around his body again.
â Patter!
The more you hurt him, the more dangerous the fight becomes.
Siona, who saw the blood pouring down, opened her mouth to Demirea. It was to tell them not to come forward anymore because it was really dangerous now.
however.
â â¦Flutter!
Because he is a harpy who knows how to think.
Because he is a harpy who knows how to distinguish between those who donât care about his poison and those who donât.
â Boo!
â Slut!
Harpy, who did not miss the moment when Sionaâs gaze moved away, kicked the ground with his remaining foot. It folded its wings and moved as if shooting towards Demirea.
âLittle duke!â
Dmireaâs eyes narrowed as she attacked the harpyâs heart.
Demirea held her breath for a moment and raised her sword to the side. This is because the area in front of the eyes and head that was not covered by armor made from the skin of an unfamiliar monster had to be blocked. Because I decided there was no time to turn around and avoid it.
-Snap!
How many drops of blood will spill over the surface of the sword?
Is it addictive just by touching it? Are you addicted to blood drops that stick to your hair? I didnât think like that.
After blocking the spray of poison with my eyes, I planned to rush straight in and pierce its neck. Since I couldnât avoid it, I measured the distance to the harpy, which was getting closer so quickly, with the intention of blocking it as much as possible and then cutting off the creatureâs life.
I didnât close my eyes. I looked straight at the guy flying as if it was going to cover my entire body and the blood pouring from its feet. In that brief moment when he didnât even have time to dodge, he held his sword tightly.
Then at that time.
â Ugh!
A shield of pale sky light blocked Demireaâs path. A red ray of light stretched out from somewhere and wrapped around the waist, as if snatching a harpy.
and.
and.
and.
â ⦠Wow!
at las.
Now.
A dazzling blue light enveloped Demireaâs sword.
â Kyaaaaaah!
â Sigh!
The blood gushing from the harpyâs wound is blocked by the shield and disappears. The red auror holding the harpy digs into his waist. The sound of the bell rushing at a very short distance breaks the harpyâs wings. Cut it out.
In the end, Kalyan came forward and captured Harpy with his auror. The shield was spread out to protect Demireaâs front. Siona checked the shield and blocked the Harpyâs movements.
and.
â Kwasik!
Demireaâs silver sword, enveloped in blue light, gains strength. Without hesitation at all, I extend towards the monster in front of me.
It pierces the harpyâs neck.
â Come on!
The harpy, who lost both wings in an instant and had her waist cut in half, was impaled on the tip of Dmireaâs sword and breathed its last breath. Finally, the movement stopped.
â â¦â¦ Cooung!
The body of the harpy slipped away from the tip of Dmireaâs sword and hit the ground with a heavy sound.
Demirea closed her mouth quietly.
Siona looked at Demirea without saying a word.
It wasnât because it was my first time hunting a monster. It wasnât because it was the first time I had hunted an enemy properly with someone else. Of course not.
â Ugh, wow!
It was because of the blue light that still hadnât subsided.
Jabak Jabak.
I hear someone walking behind me.
I feel the owner of the sound reaching out his hand. I feel the hand quietly wrapping around Demireaâs sword. I can feel a calming energy coming through the sword. I can feel the burning blue flame calming down without any way to cool down.
â Bang!
I feel Demireaâs sword being handed over to me and putting it into the scabbard where it has been safely kept.
Tap tap.
A tapping sound was heard on Demireaâs small, wide back.
Only then did Demirea turn her head.
I looked at Calian.
âThatâs cool. My fiancé.â
Words of congratulations were heard.
Calian, who was laughing brightly, took his hand off Demireaâs back.
Then.
â â¦â¦Tuuk.
I laid my forehead gently on Demireaâs shoulder and came to my senses.
