It's time to improve the strength of the infinite world

Chapter 56 Night talk around the fire
Fujimaru Ritsuka's expression was very strange. Could it be that there were still corners of this land that had not been touched by the Queen's laws and tyranny?

The expression of the young man opposite seemed even more strange. He slowly put down the copy in his hand and looked up and down at the girl in front of him.

"This - I haven't really heard of it..."

He shook his head and said with a slightly strange tone, "What queen, what prince consort, and so on, this is the first time I've heard of these. If you hadn't said it, I wouldn't have known there were such things..."

As Xia Zhi spoke, he looked towards a figure beside the campfire.

The blonde girl, with her back to him, seemed to have noticed his gaze and silently wrapped herself tightly in the blanket.

On the contrary, the other few guys who were pretending to be asleep seemed to have secretly opened their blankets a little. He was absolutely sure that at this moment, they all pricked up their ears quietly, even Altria was no exception.

"how come……"

However, Fujimaru Ritsuka didn't notice anything at all. She was just a little dazed and muttered to herself, thinking that this made no sense.

Isn't it said that the entire Fairy Kingdom is under the absolute control of the King of the Lostbelt? That is not a simple description, but a cruel and true portrayal. It was because I and others ignored this point that I made a big mistake.

This entire British fairy kingdom essentially directly constitutes the vast and boundless magic base of Morgan, the king of the Lostbelt.

Every inch of soil, every field...

This is an extremely horrifying truth: this island itself is a huge fortress-like existence built by the continuous accumulation of magical institutions...

This means that when the Chaldean group quietly sneaked into this anomaly belt and set foot in the fairy country, they were actually already in a position carefully constructed by a magician, but this position was so large that it was enough to rival the territory of a country.

Therefore, the Chaldeans were completely unaware of this and still thought they had simply entered an unusual world.

It was not until the crises that followed one after another that they gradually realized the truth.

The term "absolute monarchy" wasn't just a figure of speech; it faithfully described the reality. Faced with such absolute power, no part of this fairy kingdom could escape the terrifying shadow cast by the King of the Lostbelt.

No, wait...

There seems to be a place where...

The girl bit her lower lip tightly. A thought suddenly flashed through her mind. She eagerly asked the young man opposite her: "What is this place?"

"Wait, you don't even know where this place is?"

Xia Zhi raised his eyebrows slightly. He was very dedicated and professional. Of course, he would not miss any opportunity to show his superb acting skills. Moreover, the shaping of details was also an important part that affected the final perception and effect.

In the rigorous hunting posture, Fujimaru Ritsuka, as the prey, naturally did not notice anything unusual. She bit her lower lip and could only helplessly spread her hands to explain:
"I really don't know. It was purely due to some sudden accident that I was instantly teleported here. I appeared in mid-air and then fell into that big lake... I was rescued by you later, and I just woke up now..."

So, how could she know where this place is? !

"..."

"..."

"It seems that you have gone through a very tortuous journey, so let me tell you about it-"

The young man carefully examined her expression, nodded slightly, and began to reveal the truth to her: "Because this is where the remains of the Albion dragon fell, shaping this northern land, hence the name. It was once the home of the northern elves..."

"——"Albion of the Boundary"......?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka tried hard to chew on this term, but she only felt extremely unfamiliar, and there was no impression in her mind. Although she was quite good at honing her master's ability, as a magician...

Emmmmm...I am still a layman who has not received systematic education and has not yet entered the field.

I have never received systematic academic training, nor have I had enough time to make up for this gap.

After thinking about it carefully, she focused on searching for experiences after coming to the Fairy Kingdom, but it seemed that she had not heard of the corresponding term, so she quickly gave up. Come to think of it, there are too many things in this Lostbelt to understand.

Even if I could listen to it from beginning to end, it would probably take me several days without sleep...

Moreover, she didn't have the conditions. Since she set foot in this strange land, she had hardly stopped, always hovering on the edge of escape and survival...

Unable to come up with an answer, he decided to stop dwelling on it. The Master from Chaldea shook his head slightly, and after adjusting his thoughts, he asked again: "Can you describe it in more detail? You said this is the land north of Britain, so where exactly is it located in the north?"

"Onik." The young man gave this answer.

"Onik... Onik... Hmm, wait, I seem to have heard this name somewhere! Is it the place at the northernmost end called the Land of the End?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka muttered the name and instantly felt familiar, as if a flash of inspiration had occurred to him: "So that's it! I was wondering why you knew nothing about those things. It turns out this is Onik..."

Yes, she felt that she was gradually understanding everything!
Understand where you are!
I understand why I have survived until now!

I also understood why the other party had never heard of the Queen's deeds!

"What? Is Onik special? I feel it's very ordinary." Xia Zhi immediately became interested, with curiosity flashing in his eyes, and he asked decisively.

"Of course it's special. You may have lived here all your life, right? You have been completely isolated from the outside world and have no idea what the outside world has become. That's why you don't know this..."

He breathed a sigh of relief, and after confirming where this place was, Fujimaru Ritsuka seemed to have put down his mind.

"If this is Onik, then this might be the last piece of pure land that the Fairy Queen has never been able to touch. It's like an utopia in the fairy kingdom, sowing hope amidst despair, a paradise that countless fairies long for..."

"I don't know how many fairies want to escape to this place, and the Fairy Queen is obviously extremely wary of this. Any fairy who attempts to enter the Land of Ends will suffer the most brutal punishment once discovered..."

As Fujimaru Ritsuka said this, he subconsciously looked around.

The lakeside is quiet and peaceful, the forest is like a sleeping giant, and the camp is surrounded by carriages to form a spacious and relatively closed space, like a safe haven.

——The bonfire is burning quietly.

——The wood burst into crackling sounds in the flames.

——Although I haven’t met the other strangers in the camp yet, they have all wrapped themselves in blankets and fallen into sweet dreams. The whole world is immersed in peace.

If she hadn't clearly known that this was the world of the Lostbelt, she would almost have mistakenly believed that she was in some secluded resort, enjoying camping with her friends. The atmosphere was too similar to the others, making her feel dazed for a moment.

Yes, this must be Onik!

It must be the country of the end!
Otherwise, she had stayed in the same place for so long, from the moment she fell unconscious until now, she should have been accurately located, and those violent and frenzied dark spirits should have followed. However, until now, everything was calm.

This situation further confirmed Fujimaru Ritsuka's speculation.

She felt that this time was a blessing in disguise, as if she had grasped the key turning point to turn the tide. Perhaps it was just like the singularities and lossbelts that had been repaired in the past, in the face of difficult and hopeless situations, she could always find key help.

"If they are found, they will be executed immediately... But this will not stop the fairies from escaping."

Xia Zhi pondered for a moment. If the Chaldean Master really came from the predetermined future, then what he described must be the facts that had already happened in the future. He did not dwell on the mechanism of time, space and cause and effect in this world. He just thought there might be some misunderstanding. Of course, he was not talking about Vivian's attitude towards the fairies after becoming the queen.

He has no opinion on this and does not intend to fight for human rights for those things.

He just had an intuitive premonition, as if he had received some kind of revelation, and subconsciously felt that the Chaldean side might have misunderstood something.

Onik——

The Land of End——

It is indeed possible that it will become a paradise in the fairy kingdom in the future, an ideal world like a dream, but the greater possibility is that this is not the only place that Miss Morgan cannot touch, but rather a pure land that she deliberately preserves.

Because this peaceful and tranquil country carried her childhood and held too many memories...

It's understandable that she chose to preserve the place, and it's equally understandable that she didn't want to allow unworthy fey to sully the land.

However, as the story spread in later generations, the fairies began to mistakenly believe that this land was the only place beyond the reach of the queen's power, the only corner that could not be obscured by the shadow of tyranny, and even imagined that there lay the power to overthrow the queen's rule.

The more the queen forbade these fairies from setting foot in the Land of End, the more convinced they became of their own speculations, and the more frantically they attempted to break into that forbidden land. And then, none of them who wanted to defile that land would be spared.

Ironically, as more and more fairies died while trying to enter the Land of End, they became more convinced that there was indeed a force there that could overthrow the queen. They believed that the queen forbade any fairies to enter there because she was afraid of her.

Perhaps it is this kind of inexplicable vicious cycle that makes the whole incident more mysterious as it spreads.

But for now, it seems to be a good thing and can be used for fishing enforcement. Maybe it is not bad at all.

"There is really no way to stop it, because the queen is too cruel..."

Fujimaru Ritsuka nodded in response, a bitter smile forming on her lips. "You may not know how harsh the living conditions of fairies in the outside world are. That person is extremely brutal towards fairies. Whether they are low-ranking fairies or high-ranking lords, he kills them at will..."

Thinking back on what she had seen and heard in the Lostbelt these days, the girl still couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart, as if the thick and pungent smell of blood was still lingering at her nose.

Those innocent and kind-hearted fairies, although almost innocent, are oppressed by harsh laws and regulations. It is as if their lives are bound by shackles, and they live in shackles day after day. Any slight resistance may bring about fatal disaster.

This kind of tyranny is really outrageous...

Why did the queen take her rule to such an extreme?

Being forced to the point where they can no longer survive, no matter how kind and innocent the goblins are, they will of course resist...

——Even she understood this truth.

"So...is the resistance sentiment in the outside world rising? Has any organized, large-scale resistance force been formed? Is there any hope of overthrowing the rule of that queen?" Xia Zhi pondered for a moment and asked straightforwardly.

It just so happens that the enemy is foolishly reciting strategies to me, so of course I have to get more information from him.

"The resistance is not very fierce. Most fairies choose to flee to the Land of End. This passive resistance is useless and will only lead to death on the road..."

There was a hint of gloom in Fujimaru Ritsuka's expression, just like the gloomy mood she was feeling at the moment.

"As for organizing a resistance army, that's an even more unattainable dream. The Queen's control over the Fairy Kingdom is suffocating, making it nearly impossible to muster any substantial resistance organization... I ended up here because I once tried to establish a resistance front with my companions."

Very good, it seems that the future of these three weeks is still relatively stable.

After hearing this, Xia Zhi nodded slightly as if he had understood something, and asked further: "How did you establish the resistance front? Can you tell me more about it?"

"..."

"..."

"There are always some fairies who cannot accept such cruel things. For example, the fairy lord we decided to cooperate with, Lady Aurora, is willing to help us..."

After a brief silence, the girl spoke with a heavy and painful emotion.

"She is a lord known for her beauty, gentleness, and kindness among many fairies. She loves her people very much. However, the queen's reign of terror makes her very miserable. She wants to protect her people, but she is always unable to do so..."

"Watching her beloved people being slaughtered time and time again, she finally couldn't stand it anymore and decided to change this wrong fairy kingdom. When we were being hunted, she was the one who extended a helping hand to us..."

At that time, the Chaldeans seemed to have fallen into an abyss of despair. The successive blows and the disadvantage of not being able to rely on the power of their servants almost made them collapse.

At this most difficult moment, a fairy lord protected Chaldea like extending an olive branch, allowing them to catch their breath.

And when the kind, beautiful, and gentle fairy lord revealed the distorted and desperate current situation of the fairy kingdom to Chaldea, analyzed the right and wrong, revealed his inner dissatisfaction, and hoped to overthrow the queen's tyranny with the help of Chaldea...

People in difficult situations felt as if they had seen the light in the darkness and felt the long-lost hope.

Unfortunately--

The good times didn't last long. As a prominent lord among the goblins, Aurora's status might be second only to one person and above ten thousand people...

But in the eyes of the lofty King of the Lostbelt, she was no different from an ordinary fairy, and life and death were just a matter of thought.

"...Lady Aurora offered to help us, saying she was willing to support us secretly and contact other fairy lords for help..."

As Ritsuka Fujimaru recalled the scenes of that painful night, his tone gradually became lower.

"She told us this during the day, and then at night, the fairy knight Lancelot came to our house and brought the queen's decree to sentence her to death..."

"Elf Knight Lancelot?"

Xia Zhi's expression changed slightly, and he looked at Melyuchina who was also pretending to sleep not far away.

It seems that according to Vivian, Melyusina is the future fairy knight Lancelot?

Then the script needs to be revised again, and a new explanation needs to be arranged in this regard...

After all, this conversation was deliberately facilitated. The reason why he asked everyone else to pretend to sleep was because he planned to control the rhythm himself and thoroughly find out how much the other party knew so that he could formulate the next script.

Tailor-made, service-oriented.

"Yes, he is one of the Fairy Knights of the Round Table named by Queen Morgan herself. Fairy Knight Lancelot is the most powerful and famous one among them..."

At this moment, Fujimaru Ritsuka was unaware of this inside story, and she was still slowly recounting the story of that night by the campfire. The atmosphere of the night chat around the fire invisibly stimulated her desire to talk.

"We didn't meet with Lady Aurora that night, so we avoided a face-to-face encounter with the Fairy Knight. We didn't see him at all. Otherwise, he probably wouldn't have been able to escape..."

"But Lady Aurora did not escape. She was caught and publicly executed in front of the people she loved. It is said that the fairy knight Lancelot personally poured poison into her mouth, causing her to die in great pain..."
