While Brave and Elaydja were trying to negotiate with Serena, Nicco, who had just made her way to her master thanks to the stele, appeared in the small white room of five square ters.
But as for Alvine and his little squad, seeing this new stranger join them, they frowned while the four generals surrounded him to ensure his protection.
"Master, I'm sorry for my delay, but I did it as fast as possible to join you." Nicco did not pay attention to the suspicious auras from Alvine and the others; she calmly pronounced these words as she approached them.
'Master? Who she's that one again?' Alvine murmured in his thoughts as his frown gradually increased.
"My lord, this woman is probably an enemy who wants to take advantage of our weakness to murder you! Please do not listen to her senseless words. She doesn't belong to any of our squads. Not to ntion our four squads; this is the first ti I have seen another hybrid except master Nicco and Lady Yury; there are no other hybrids in our ranks!" Vlad, the general of the elite squad of elves, whispered these words with impassive eyes.
"I know, but this is not the ti to waste our energy more. Finally, as long as she stays away from us." Alvine also nods with cold eyes.
Hearing Alvine's words, Nicco remained speechless and looked at them with incredulous eyes.
'... Huh? Ah! I almost forgot that my appearance is different from usual. And since they cannot use their magical energies or perceptions, they can't identify . Hmm~ maybe I should take advantage of this situation to annoy master more? Sigh, but the situation is not adequate for my little whims. On top of that, I'm too exhausted to change shape.' With these thoughts, she stopped at her steps and looked around.
Seeing her actions, Alvine and the others beca even more suspicious of her.
'Sigh, if I were alone, I could have destroyed this room with my Gehenna flas. But if I use them, my subordinates will be the first to die before this space collapses. And as if it were not enough, there is now another mystery that has just been added to the chessboard. Even if I do not feel any hostility on her part, her presence in this place does not foreshadow anything good. And the worst thing is that she seems to have the opportunity to use her magical energy, unlike us!' Alvine spoke these words while paying attention to Nicco's actions.
'If she learns that our magical energy and physical strength are sealed, this room will surely beco her hunting ground.' He continued to put himself on maximum alert.
"Seeing your mistrust, if I explain myself more, it'll only sow more confusion and mistrust of . That's why I suggest you cooperate together to go out in this shit. Then--
"Tsk, tsk, you think you are for whom to dare us--
"You shut it up! I never asked for your opinion but that of my master." Seeing Barade interrupt her in the middle of her sentence, Nicco shouts these words while using a bit of her primordial aura to intimidate him.
"!?!" It was only after this action on her part that the others, including Alvine, realized a scary factor.
Unlike the others who focus only on Nicco's ability to use her aura in such a situation, Alvine's thoughts are quite different.
'Of the primordial aura?! Who is this girl at the end?! Is she one of the leaders or one of the Punishers?! Regardless of her identity, as long as her intentions are not revealed, she'll remain a high-ranking threat that must not be provoked in such a situation.' He said to Himself, tapping Barade's shoulder to stop him from guessing the latter's intentions.
"Fufu~ what do you think of my proposal? According to your expression, you have certainly concluded that you'll have no chance against in such a situation. Above all, with your sealed magical energy." She whispered her last sentence with a mischievous smile that went all the way to her ears.
'So she knew from the beginning, Huh? Nothing surprising coming from one of these primordials!' Alvine concludes the next mont after hearing her statents.
"Very good. Even if I don't know your intentions, this is not the ti for to worry about it."
"Hmm? I find that you accept my proposal too easily. Is there a particular reason for this?"
"Sigh, only an idiot would refuse such a proposal in such a situation. And then, if you intended to kill us, you'd have already done it from the beginning. After all, we're currently easy prey."
Hearing Alvine's comnt, Nicco laughed ridiculously.
"Easly prey, do you say? That's surely true for others, but for you, I have the impression that it would be unfortunate for to underestimate you." While retorting these words, she focuses on the wall behind her.
'Well, I can freeze a small part of this wall to weaken and break it with a punch. But the problem is the celestial fla that refused to manifest its presence since I landed in this room. It's as if it is afraid of sothing, but what? This room represents no danger either for or for the celestial fla. So why does she act so strangely?' While asking herself these questions, Nicco tried to manifest her celestial fla.
But at that mont, she heard the agitated voice of the latter resonate in her head
*M-Master, if I show myself in front of this man, he would risk killing !*
*Hm? Who exactly are you talking about, this man?* She asked with incredulous eyes.
*The other with white hair!*
Hearing its words, Nicco looked at Alvine with contracted eyebrows.
*Why would he kill you? In addition to being powerless without being able to use his mana, you're also under my protection, so don't worry; he won't be able to do anything against y-
*You haven't understood yet?! He's not the real danger, but the flas he possesses!*
*... Ah, are you talking about his Gehenna flas? Why are you afraid of spiritual flas? Even if you are weak compared to other celestial flas, you are still a celestial fla!*
*Spiritual flas?! It's impossible! Even if it's weak and not really present with him, it always gives off a fierce aura that gives the impression of dying at all tis! I'm not ready to face it when I've just finished my evolution!*
'Strange, a celestial fla so intimidated by my master's gehenna fla? It's impossible to feel such fear of a similar, even if it has just finished its evolution. Heavenly flas are known to be arrogant. This little kid respects only because of his gratitude to , who played a major role during his evolution. She even dared to attack a primordial being without flinching, so why is she so afraid of the flas of my mast--
"Do you have a solution to break these walls?" At that mont, Alvine's voice woke her up in her thoughts.
"Umm~ I indeed have a solution, but my services will not be free." She said, removing her hand from the white wall.
"Sigh, I expected this kind of request; you are all similar. Finally, as long as you don't ask the impossible, we'll have a deal. But let's not waste any more ti; my n are starting to run out of air!" Alvine retorted without bothering to listen to Nicco's request.
'Finally! I hold him!' Nicco retorted in her thoughts with sparkling eyes that dazzled Alvine and the other four, forcing them to look away.
'W-why, I feel as if I've already seen her. I hope with all my heart that I have misconceptions.' While pronouncing these words in his thoughts, Alvine focused on his actions after the dazzling light.
But the next mont, his eyes widened when he heard Nicco whisper sothing he could never imagine.
|Concept of blood: blood arrow!|
Hearing Nicco saying these words in the primordial language he understood as well as his mother tongue and seeing the droplets of the golden blood rges in front of Nicco's index finger and turn into a golden arrow that released relentless pressure to the point of putting them on their knees, Alvine was sure that he hadn't misheard Nicco's sentence.
'I'm sure it's the concept of blood she's using! The sa concept as Sabrina! Who is this fucking girl at the end?!' He shouted in his thoughts while clenching his fists to the point that others could hear his joints cracking because of his nervous astonishnt.
-Shoot!
-SWHOOOOSH-BANNNG!!!
But before he could think further, he saw Nicco bomb the black wall in front of her, creating a ten-ter-thick hole.
Seeing the damage of her arrow, unlike the others who were surprised by the frightening power that the arrow had just demonstrated, Alvine was surprised to see the resilience of the ripe.
'To be able to create such a room just to prevent emperor mages from the lower ranks, located on this planet, from entering this area; this place must not only be a simple tomb.' He said to Himself while looking at the others who had already collapsed on the ground because of the pressure of Nicco's aura.
But simultaneously, he noticed sothing that made him sigh with relief.
"Finally, we can use our powers." He said to Himself with a small smile at the corners of his lips.
"Since we don't know what awaits us out of this room, do your best to recover. We can't afford to--
But before he finished his sentence, the whole wall began to restore at a breathtaking speed.
Seeing this, Alvine blinked with a mocking smile.
[Dinsional jump!]
He then murmured, teleporting everyone with him, including Nicco, out of the small room.
'Hm? A sarcophagus?' He continued in his dazzling, looking around him and noticing the only coffin in front of him in the grand auditorium, which looked like an underground royal hall.
But the next mont, Nicco's voice interrupted him in his thoughts.
"Huh? Are you now protecting a stranger that you don't know?"
Hearing Nicco's question, Alvine gave her a dark look.
But the next mont, he sighed with abandonnt.
*You owe explanations afterward about this strange appearance.* He retorted through their telepathy tie.
*...! Sigh, I was starting to enjoy this ga; it's a sha.* Nicco answers by guessing that Alvine has discovered her identity.
'I'm now sure! His magical perception is not only able to see the magical energy of people but also their souls.' She continued while creating a translucent barrier around them with a simple snap of the fingers.
*Master, I have to talk to you in private.*
*Does this have anything to do with this place or your new appearance? Then, by the way, why can I feel the magical energy and soul of my three maidservants in you? *
*I would explain everything in detail, but there is more urgent than my appearance; we must never break the seal of the creature that's sealed here. Otherwise, we'll be condemned!*
