Villain: After I died, all the heroines cried themselves to sleep.

With the addition of the Holy Sword Maiden, the students of Class One began to systematically eliminate the monsters in the surrounding area over the next few days.

Compared to their predetermined fate, thanks to Rogge's actions, the various groups were able to meet much earlier, and the Holy Sword Maiden did not recklessly fight her way through the entire battle.

At least they will still listen to Rogge's commands.

Therefore, the situation can be described as very favorable.

Rogge witnessed firsthand just how powerful the Holy Sword Maiden would be when she unleashed her full power.

Throughout the entire monster hunting operation, Sword Maiden almost single-handedly shouldered the majority of the frontal combat work, with only Rogue barely able to keep up with her pace.

The others, under the command of the Third Prince, worked together to prevent the monster from escaping.

Even the seemingly useless group of four, spurred on by Roger, displayed the talent and abilities befitting students in Class One.

In just a few days, the main characters who will fight against the alien race have begun to take shape.

Meanwhile, new progress has been made in the study of Mayan relics from the lost era.

"There is a certain connection between the sealed altars of these ruins."

Maya showed everyone a map of all the ruins, which was then connected to form a huge magical array.

The center of the magic circle points to a certain point on the map.

"Although I can't be sure what's there, I believe the unsealing of the altar is closely related to that place."

"In other words, the culprit that caused all this is very likely right there."

The third prince fully understood what Maya meant.

The question now is, is it necessary for them to take the risk there?

With the surrounding monsters eliminated, everyone was basically safe.

They just need to stay hidden in the ruins for a while longer, and rescue from the outside world will surely arrive soon.

The subsequent matters can be handled by the college teachers.

"Rogge, what are your thoughts?"

The Third Prince inquired about Rogge.

After these days of active performance, Rogge has made a strong impression on everyone and gained the trust of many people.

"We can't place all our hopes on others, can we?"

Rogge said nonchalantly.

"Nobody knows when reinforcements will arrive, so I think it's still necessary to go and investigate that place. Maybe we can find a way to seal the monster."

He lied.

In fact, Roger knew better than anyone that the college teachers would arrive to rescue them within the next day or two.

However, he still wanted to go to the center of the sealing array to find out what was going on.

Because this is not recorded in the predetermined fate.

It was as if someone had deliberately erased the traces.

"Ira and I will sneak over to scout ahead, while the rest of you can continue clearing out the monsters at the original pace."

Rogge made a suggestion to the Third Prince.

"No, that's too dangerous!"

Before the Third Prince could speak, Princess Lingsha objected first.

Rogge finally managed to persuade everyone else, but Princess Lingsa acted like a child and threw a tantrum.

"I disagree. We can simply stay here and wait for rescue. Why go to such a dangerous place?"

"So, I'll just take Ira with me, won't I?"

Roger explained.

Ira's ability to become invisible is incredibly sinister; those who know, know.

Moreover, if all else fails, Roger can drink dragon blood to activate Dragon Phoenix Mode and transform into a level seven superhuman.

They weren't afraid at all.

He had to use all his persuasion to finally calm Princess Lingsha down.

"Hmph! You can't stay too long. If you encounter any danger, you must run away immediately."

"Why should I take your orders...?"

Roger was both amused and exasperated.

In short, at Rogge's strong request, he finally managed to travel with Ira to the center of the sealing array to conduct reconnaissance.

Those who were unaware of the truth watched Roger's departing figure, and no matter how much they had disliked him before, they couldn't help but feel a touch of admiration for Roger's courage.

[Building connections with students from the Royal Academy improves one's reputation.]

……

After leaving the camp, Rogge led Ira deep into the heart of the sealing array.

The closer you get to the heart of the territory, the higher the probability of encountering monsters.

However, thanks to Rogge's keen senses and Ira's ability to become ethereal, the two managed to evade all the monsters without serious injury.

Despite being dragged into Rogge's mess, Ira didn't complain at all. Instead, she felt very honored and insisted on helping Rogge achieve his goal.

Rogge was curious about what Ira meant by "target".

But Iraq answered as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

"This incident was clearly orchestrated by the alien race. Brother Rogge must want to see that sinner woman in person and then completely subdue her with his strength!"

Rogge glanced at Ira speechlessly.

I really want to crack open their skull and see how much water is inside.

On the other hand, this is indeed a good excuse to investigate the history of criminal tribes.

As they spoke, the two finally arrived at the center of the sealing array.

What appeared before them was a desolate valley.

In the valley, the water source has dried up, the land is cracked, and only a towering ancient tree stands.

Unfortunately, the ancient tree has long since lost its vitality, leaving only its wrinkled trunk, bearing witness to its long history.

"This tree must be tens of thousands of years old."

Rogge muttered to himself.

Suddenly, Ira's voice came from beside me.

"That's strange."

"What's wrong?"

Rogge turned his head and saw Ira staring blankly at the ancient tree.

Before she could find out what was going on, Ira had already left the bushes and was heading toward the ancient tree in a daze.

Rogge seemed to be thinking about something, and quickly followed Ira, but did not stop her.

Ira arrived at the base of the ancient tree, looked up at it, and moved her lips.

"How strange, why can I sense that this tree seems to be in great pain and extremely sad?"

"Are you sad...?"

Rogge did not share similar empathy.

He did experience auditory hallucinations, as if he heard a voice calling to him.

Roger couldn't help but reach out and touch the ancient tree.

A gentle breeze suddenly blew through the deathly silent valley.

next second.

The decaying ancient tree bursts forth with vitality, stretching out countless green branches and leaves in the blink of an eye, swaying in the breeze.

A towering tree that blocks out the sun comes into view.

Roger's eyes widened in surprise.

Looking around, the barren, cracked land was nowhere to be seen; instead, the hillsides were covered with wildflowers and green grass.

He was standing amidst a sea of ​​vibrant flowers!

"Great King."

A light, ethereal sound lingered in the air.

Rogge looked back.

Under the clear sky, a beautiful fairy with long, pointed ears fluttered her crystalline wings and came to his side.

The fairy reached out and cupped Rogge's face in her hands, a sorrowful smile on her face.

"Although we are not yet awakened, we beg you to kill us and bring us eternal liberation."

A tear slid down her cheek.

"I will always be with you."

The fairy spoke softly, and before Rogge could answer, she suddenly leaned forward.

Their lips touched, and a breath of life flowed into Roger's body, spreading to every part of his body.

The system notification sounded at the appropriate time.

You have received the fairy's blessing and awakened a new talent.

Since the rebirth of the Crimson Phoenix, Rogge has gained new talents.

Roger blinked.

The fairy before them had vanished, and the lush, towering tree had turned back into a decaying ancient tree.

It was as if everything that had just happened was nothing more than a fleeting dream.

"Brother Roger, something terrible has happened!"

Ira's anxious shouts pulled Rogge back to reality.

Rogge looked around.

At this moment, dozens of figures with inhuman characteristics appeared on the mountains on both sides, surrounding them.
