"Clang!"
Dazzling starlight fell from mid-air, directly showering down on Genom, bathing Genom entirely in the starlight.
"Ugh..."
Genom felt the pain throughout her body rapidly disappearing at a surprising speed. Her bruised and battered body was visibly recovering, and there was an unprecedented sensation of comfort flowing through her being.
(What... what is this feeling?)
Genom was sowhat astonished and trembled.
It wasn't out of fear, but out of comfort.
She could clearly feel the magic power that rged with her body along with the starlight, as if it were the most comfortable force in the world, making her feel as though she wanted to succumb to it.
Of course, Genom had no idea that this was all due to the person who cast the healing magic on her possessing the Supre God's Blessing, favored by the world, whose magic power held great affinity and attraction to an elf like her, born of nature.
Fortunately, before Genom drowned in this sensation, rica's worried voice woke her up.
"Are you alright, Genom!"
Hearing rica's voice, Genom jolted awake, feeling ashad of her reaction, she raised her head.
At that mont, rica was holding Genom, squatting on the ground, looking at her with a face full of concern.
The black dragon descended from the sky, bringing those standing on its back into Genom's view.
"That was a close call."
Shane, holding Lasha in one hand and Lilith in the other, looked down at Genom with a gentle smile.
For so reason, seeing Shane's smile, Genom was reminded of the previous sensation, and her heartbeat suddenly accelerated.
Understanding her feelings were out of sorts, Genom quickly shook her head, stood up, disregarded thanking everyone or asking why rica was there, and directly grabbed rica's hand.
"rica! Go save Teacher Carol and the others!"
Genom cried out anxiously, as if seeing a savior.
"What... what happened to them?"
rica hurriedly asked.
Before Genom could respond, the others on the dragon's back, including Shane, had already turned their heads to look in a direction.
"There was a very strong magical reaction over there just now, which suggests that so powerful magic was unleashed, right?"
Shane remarked.
"When descending from the sky, you could see strong firelight over there, indicating a fierce battle likely occurred."
Lasha blandly analyzed.
"?"
Lilith tilted her head, seemingly puzzled about the situation.
The first to notice the anomaly was this small Goddess.
However, given that Lilith sensed it so quickly and paid particular attention to it, it was certainly no ordinary situation.
To be blunt, battles occur every mont in the Taiger Forest, and countless disturbances and anomalies arise.
Even legendary level demons and demon infants in combat wouldn't draw much of Lilith's attention amid these disturbances and anomalies.
This ans what Lilith sensed was not related to Carol or Genom's circumstances.
She rely looked around with curiosity and suspicion, then seed to discover sothing, fixing her gaze on a certain direction.
There, the magic lifeform had been obliterated by rica's nature magic.
The ruined earth and thick trees and roots stood out prominently.
Lilith focused on that location.
"What's wrong, Lilith?"
"Miss Lilith?"
Shane and Lasha also noticed this situation and turned to Lilith in confusion.
Lilith did not respond but extended a hand, releasing a black mist-like evil energy.
The evil energy drifted towards the spot Lilith had been staring at, and soon returned, carrying sothing with it.
It was the package Genom had been protecting, which was snatched by the magic lifeform monts ago.
"Ah!"
Genom cried out.
Unfortunately, Lilith ignored her, directly manipulating the evil energy to wrap the package and retrieve it.
"What is this?"
Shane beca sowhat curious.
anwhile, Lasha inexplicably focused intently on the package, with a peculiar sparkle in her eyes.
Having acquired the package, Lilith confird that the anomaly she sensed was emanating from it.
Thus, Lilith presented the package to Shane, adorably like offering a treasure, rendering one breathless.
"Is it for ?"
Shane, still puzzled, hesitated not, stretching out to receive the package.
The mont he took it, Shane's expression slightly shifted.
The reason was simple.
"Clang clang clang..."
As Shane took the package, a noise of chains clattering erged from within him.
It was the sound of the Demon Roar Chain.
The Demon Roar Chain, as if discovering sothing precious, joyfully writhed as it did when it first encountered Shane.
"What's going on?"
Astonished, Shane stood up.
At this ti, Lasha finally spoke.
"The item inside might relate to the Demon King."
Lasha abruptly revealed such shocking news.
"Sothing related to the Demon King?"
This revelation startled not only Shane but also rica and Genom, who had been protecting the package all along.
"What is it, Genom?"
rica looked at Genom in utter surprise.
Genom appeared sowhat bewildered, evidently as surprised yet anxiously responded.
"Let's save Teacher Carol and the others first! They're in danger now!"
It seems that Genom is still quite concerned about Carol's side.
After all, Shane and the others have already arrived, so the items in the package are probably safe. Carol's side is naturally more important.
"Mr. Shane?"
rica couldn't help but look toward Shane.
"... Let's go."
Shane remained silent for a mont, then spoke, deciding to rescue Carol and the others first.
After finishing everything, it's not too late to ask questions slowly.
Thus, Shane handed the package directly to Lasha without any courtesy, asking her to keep it.
Lasha silently took the package and stared at it, not knowing what she was thinking.
rica held Genom, and together with Genom, they climbed onto You Lin's back, carried by the thick tree roots.
"Roar!"
Only then did You Lin roar, flapping the Dragon Wings and soaring into the sky.
The destination, the forest illuminated by firelight.
...
Because the distance wasn't very far, under You Lin's carriage, the group quickly arrived at the destination.
A magnificent sea of fire spread between the forests, transforming into a forest fire, expanding its territory at an astonishing speed.
"Roar!"
"Howl!"
The demons and refined demons in the surrounding area were howling, constantly fleeing in all directions, trying to escape the threatening sea of fire chasing them.
Even the flying series demons were doing the sa, fleeing in panic through the air, no longer staying here.
However, You Lin fearlessly flew into it, even releasing magic power to form a protective barrier, shielding those on her back from the intense heat and hot winds.
"This is truly..."
Shane, Lasha, rica, and the others looked at the sea of fire, sowhat speechless.
"Teacher Carol! Teacher!"
Genom, with a pale face, shouted below.
Seeing the place as it is now, just imagining what Carol and the others fighting here have beco makes one anxious.
Genom had even ntally prepared himself for the worst, tears welling up in his eyes, body on the verge of collapsing.
Only Shane and rica closed their eyes.
Shane was expanding the sensing power of [Outer Destiny], sensing the situation within the sea of fire below.
rica was using the affinity for nature granted by the Goddess of Nature's Blessing, listening to the voices of all things.
Both were using their thods to search for life within the sea of fire.
After a while, Shane and rica opened their eyes simultaneously.
"Over there!"
rica pointed in a direction.
"You Lin!"
Shane also gave an instruction to the mount beneath him.
"Roar!"
You Lin imdiately flapped her wings, flying toward the direction the two pointed at.
Shortly after, the pitch-black dragon arrived at the center of the sea of fire.
"Right below here." Shane gazed below and said, "There's a reaction of magic power, they should still be alive."
Saying this, Shane jumped off the dragon's back, falling directly into the sea of fire under the gazes of everyone.
But it didn't take long for Shane's voice to echo out from within, spreading afar.
"[Grant·Dispel]."
Ripples of magic power spread from the center of the sea of fire, like invisible ripples on the water's surface, spreading across the entire sea of fire.
"Boom!"
As if blowing away all calamities, the fiery sea was instantly extinguished from the inside out, disappearing completely in the blink of an eye.
The scene was both magnificent and pleasing, making one wonder if it was so large-scale magic performance.
Unfortunately, all this truly happened.
The girls on You Lin's back instinctively raised their hands, blocking the incoming hot wind amidst exclamations.
Once the hot winds had dissipated, everyone hurriedly looked below.
The sea of fire below had been extinguished, revealing the scene of one charred corner of the forest to everyone's eyes.
Shane happened to land on the ground, standing at the center of the scorched earth.
Around him, waves of magical brilliance shimred.
That was the brilliance of magic.
One by one, the elf girls lay amidst the shimring magical light, with their clothes burned away, their bodies covered in patches of gray and black.
Their situation didn't look too well, but perhaps at the very last mont, successfully deploying defense magic, the elf girls managed to keep their last breath.
You Lin descended from midair, landing on the charred ground.
Genom imdiately jumped off the dragon's back.
"Teacher Carol!"
In an anxious shout, Genom embraced one of the elf girls lying on the ground.
"Cough..."
Carol lay in Genom's arms, face pale, her bare delicate body covered in the most gray-black among everyone, seemingly having suffered the most intense burns.
The crowd could imagine, in the last uncontrollable mont of the sea of fire, this existence, like the deputy commander and instructor of the Elf Corps, blocked the fiercest burn for the elf mages behind her, exhausting all her power, winning the ti for everyone to cast defense magic.
Thus, not only was Carol's injury extrely severe, her magic power was completely drained, teetering on the edge of life and death.
"Teacher Carol!"
"Teacher! Everyone!"
Genom's voice was choked with tears, even rica covered her small mouth.
Seeing this, Shane furrowed his brows tightly and released magic power from his entire body.
"[Star-Blowing Breath (Celestial Breathe)]."
Shane once again used healing celestial magic.
Starlight descended from the sky, enveloping this part of the world.
