Chapter 181
TL: Zimmings
I rushed forward and managed to catch up with Lea and Adrian.
I hid in the grass and clenched my fist as I tried to call them.
It’s already amazing that I didn’t go crazy or die even though I didn’t have any divine power left.
But I cannot help them.
My body was also not in its best condition.
Besides, I have no one here to help and protect .
What can I do now?
Is there anything I can do?
Wouldn’t I just be a burden?
I sighed and bit my lip.
‘Fool, since when did I beco like this?’
Before I touched the newt, I didn’t have divine power. I also have no status, no money, no family. I have been living with the risk of regression. Even when I can’t think like an adult when I am hungry or sick, I still survive.
‘I was afraid of nothing back then.’
I have achieved many things despite all of the odds back then.
I didn’t have anything, but I always tried hard to protect sothing. Whether it was myself or other people.
‘Think, there’s obviously a way.’
My head was dizzy, but I calmly looked around and rembered the details in this mountain.
I grabbed Lea’s shoulder.
“You……!”
Lea,who was startled, looked around and lowered her voice.
“I told you to go back. Why did you co all the way here?”
“I have a way to beat the enemy.”
“What does a young child know? This young boy is already helping . It’s dangerous, so go-”
“I’ll lure them away.”
“There’s no way you can do that.”
I pointed to myself with a confident expression.
“Look at , they won’t be wary if they et a young girl like . So Lea and Adrian…”
As I whispered my plans, their eyes widened.

I grabbed the blood-soaked robe and ran in front of the enemy. And as soon as I t the enemies, they were startled seeing .
The knight running towards said.
“It’s a child.”
“What is she doing in this hour?”
A man in heavy armor who was busy giving orders among the knights approached . His gaze turned to the robe I was holding.
“What is that?”
“C, clothes.”
I pretended to be frightened and stepped backwards, the heavy-ard man grabbed my wrist roughly.
“Ah!”
“I know it’s clothes. I have eyes. But what I am asking is who the owner was. It’s not yours, right?”
“…….”
I imdiately burst into tears. As I cried my eyes out while hiccuping, soone approached .
‘Oh it’s a mage.’
The mage asked in a rather friendly voice.
“We don’t an to scare you. You’ll be able to go ho without much trouble. But whose clothes are these?”
“I, I was told not to say it…….”
The man took a silver coin from his pocket and handed it to .
“Whose is it?”
‘That’s right. Great. Now, even if I tell them, they’ll think that I’ll tell the truth because of the coin.’
I said as I touched the silver coin.
“I don’t know her na. I was collecting twigs to use as firewood, and a sister asked to help.”
“Help them?”
“A baby will be born…”
As soon as I said that, the heavy armored man and the mage exchanged glances.
“I wondered why these rats hid in the mountains while running away, so it’s childbirth.”
“Hurry up. We don’t know how long a baby born on a rough mountain can survive.”
‘What do they an?’
The mage was talking as if he had to save the baby. The heavy armored man nodded his head.
‘Isn’t it the child, not Lisette, what they’re looking for?’
Why?
If they were going to take a hostage, The Duchess of Dubblede is enough. However, they actually killed Lisette and manipulated their mory.
‘Maybe their mory was manipulated for them to get the child…!’
After realizing, I grabbed the robe tightly. The mage asked .
“We are here to help them.”
“R, really?”
“Of course. Can you guide to where they are?”
“Yes!”
I nodded and the knights began to follow .
The heavy armored man left only three knights here and with that number, Lea and Adrian could handle them.
I led them and walked for a long ti. Still, I did not forget to overhear what the heavy armored man and the mage were saying.
“Are you sure you have opened the barrier?”
“Yes. Communication tools and moving circles will never be able to be used within Dubblede territory for a while. But now that they are alerted, Theodore Dubblede will soon find out that sothing has happened to the estate.”
“It’s okay, they are a bunch of cowardly trash.”
“The Dubblede’s servants are famous for their tenacity though.”
“Ugh, another troubleso bunch, and to think that Theodore Dubblede took her as a wife…….”
‘Are they talking about Lisette?’
The heavy armored man continued to grumble.
“I should have killed her right away when I found her. Who knew the runaway bitch would have beco the Duchess? God damn it, wasting a life arranged by God like that. A girl who deserves to die-”
“Watch your mouth.”
As the mage coldly warned him, the heavy-ard man coughed in vain as if he was embarrassed.
“It’s not like that…… but why did they co all the way to such a dark place?”
The heavy armored man yelled at .
“Are we on the right track?”
“Y, yes…”
“The girls wouldn’t have had ti to go so deep into the mountains…”
As the heavy armored man murmured, the mage also looked around.
“Child, you said you were looking for firewood in the mountains?”
“Yes.”
The mage glanced at my hand.
“But now that I see it, the child’s hand is not rough. Like a child from a noble family that never suffered. Why would she be picking up firewood?”
He gritted his teeth and added.
“We were too careless.”
“What do you an?”
When the heavy armored man asked, the mage spoke in a low voice.
“It seems that we are careless because they are children. It’s a decoy.”
‘I got caught!’
When I backed away, the man shouted with a very angry expression.
“How dare this fucking rat fool ?!”
“Y, you’re right…”
When I clasped my hands tightly,
Bzzt-
The ground vibrated.
Soon sothing huge fell off the cliff.
Our eyes went to sothing that fell from the cliff at once. Everyone freezed as if ti stopped for a few seconds.
Bzztt!!
With a terrifying cry the soldiers shouted.
“Arghh!! It’s a monster!!”
I looked at the heavy-armored man and the mage who was panicking.
“Look, we ca to the right place.”
A trap prepared by , Lea, and Adrian for you guys.
“This damn girl…!”
“Avoid it, Sir Benedict!”
As the flying monster opened its beak, countless sharp teeth were revealed. And in an instant, it bit off the shoulder of the heavy armored man.
“Arghh!!”
As he scread the knights were even more panicking.
‘This was Zachary’s tactic!’
Zachary’s evil tactics that gave him the victory in the virtual battle. The tactic that he used to beat Shuheil. Looking at the topography of this mountain, I realized that there was a nest of a monster bird here.
‘The monster would be near where the haro flowers blood.’
That’s why there were monsters in Mountain Redgus behind the Dubblede’s mansion.
They need a mage to kill monsters. There is a mage right now, but it’s impossible for him to kill it.
This was because, like in the virtual battle, the formation of the knights completely collapsed, so it didn’t give the mage enough ti to cast.
Even the commander was bewildered so it was impossible.
The mage shouted.
“Run away!”
‘Yes. Run away, you guys!’
They said that there was a barrier laid out by that mage in this area. It is a barrier that disables the use of communication tools and moving circles.
It’s the best ti to break it when they were panicking so my dad can co here.
‘Aren’t I great?’
I smiled as I watched the knights fleeing in confusion.
‘Oh, I have to run away too!’
I quickly tossed the robe to the monster bird. The monster bird reacted to the sll of blood, snatching the robe and biting it.
I ran hurriedly.
‘I will run away the fastest. I know this place very well.’
Those enemies won’t know where to go, so they will keep being chased.
Just then,
“Ah!”
The heavy armored man ca from behind.
Even as he was dying from a bite on his shoulder, he ca running to .
‘This blood…!’
The heavy armored man slumped down, and the gaze of the monster bird turned to .
The six eyeballs on his head gazed at .
The flying monster bird ran towards , and I closed my eyes tightly.
‘Dad!’
But it was strange.
It didn’t hurt no matter how much ti passed. As I slowly opened my eyes, a slender back was standing in front of .
“It’s okay.”
No way. I stiffened and looked at the person wrapped around .
“Are you okay?”
“…….”
“Child.”
“……Lisette.”
My face turned pale as she smiled slowly.
I looked around.
Lea killed the monster bird with a huge spear.
Cecilia was assisting Lea.
Adrian conquered the wings of the monster with divine power. And I saw Reina hugging a blanket on the cliff.
‘She…….’
The youngest child was born. Lisette looked at and wrapped her hand on my cheeks.
“……Child.”
