Wrong, but reply to the hero's story

"You are too confident, Master Artemis."

"How can you be sure that Miss Liu can hold me back?"

"With a little trick, Miss Liu successfully let me go!"

The sudden sound in the dense forest made Artemis panic.

He stood up from the stone almost immediately, returning to his usual heroic appearance, standing on the stone and looking down at Kaiar.

"Master Artemis, you don't have to be like this."

"I have seen it all."

I saw it...

Surprisingly, Artemis didn't get angry as usual, but instead squatted down and patted the ground under the big rock.

Seeing this, Kaiyal's mouth twitched.

"Master Artemis, can't you allow me to sit on the same rock with you and have a chat?"

Giving Kaiar a "hurry" look, the boy didn't dare to continue arguing about the unfair treatment, but sat obediently in front of Artemis.

Chapter 127 Scorpio, I will probably never forget you

"I didn't tell you in detail last time."

"That's the ruins of Eleusus, located in the secret realm of the Great Sea of Trees, on the other side of the continent far away from Orario."

"There lives a powerful monster that was born in ancient times."

"Shinjuku-2, you can also call it Scorpio."

"The other party possesses the power to easily erode the forest, corrupt the surface, and cause the entire continent to wither."

"The most terrifying thing is that it has unparalleled tenacious vitality."

"Even the combined might of ancient heroes could not slay it..."

"Finally, with the combined efforts of the ancient heroes and the great immortal spirits, they successfully sealed the other party in the ruins of Eleusus in the secret realm of the Great Sea of Trees."

"And you should know what fairy spirit is, right, Kaiyal?"

"That was my avatar... the still-living Scorpio. I knew it the moment I descended into the world."

"It and I are natural enemies destined to fight a deadly battle."

"Even the ancient heroes, powerful enough to slay monsters without grace, were helpless against this terrifying monster."

"The only thing that can destroy it is that divine weapon, and Kaiyal, I know very well that you cannot wield that weapon."

"So, give up. You have to live well."

"If my Orion were not in the netherworld, I would personally perish together with that monster."

Looking at Artemis who had revealed so many true feelings, Kaiar felt a headache.

Orion, who was hired as an exception, hadn't said anything yet, but Artemis herself was wavering again.

Kaiar knew that the goddess was simply worried that he, who possessed a great "Hero Seed", would perish in that battle.

Moreover, Artemis also gave Kayal a reason to retreat, that is, even if the ancient heroes rushed forward together, they could not kill the opponent. It would be wise to use rational judgment and run away to cut the loss in time.

Dusk is over and the full moon has finally risen.

The bright moonlight filled the forest with a hazy silver color.

It was still the familiar moonlight, and Kaiyal decided to be bold for once!

Under Artemis's puzzled gaze, Kaiar hit Artemis hard on the forehead.

Artemis was about to lose her temper after being caught off guard, but she saw Kaiar facing the moonlight with an invincible posture:

"Scorpio, I'm afraid I will never forget this opponent!"

After a moment of silence, Artemis finally understood and smiled with relief.

"You're an idiot. It's strange to make such a victory declaration in advance."

"If you want to reassure me, shouldn't you say 'we will win'?"

After coughing twice, Kaiyal didn't have the courage to say "I will win" before fighting the boss.

"Alright, goddess, you're grieving a little too early."

"Didn't you say it would take more than a year to break the seal?"

"There's more than enough time!"

Artemis shook her head regretfully upon hearing this.

"To be precise, it felt like more than a year before that."

"But after seeing those little scorpions just now, I realized that their rate of proliferation and recovery of strength is probably far beyond my imagination."

"In the earliest case, it will take half a year to accumulate enough power to break the seal."

Kaiar's smile froze for a moment.

He understood the butterfly effect, but how was Scorpio, who was far away on the other side of the continent, affected?

Few people even know of its existence. Could it be that Hermes is behind it?

If the other party really dares to use unknown means to speed up the recovery of this monster, then the other party can undoubtedly be judged as an evil god!

After thinking about it, Kaiar didn't think that guy would do such a thing. Although the other party did have a bit of a weird pleasure in his heart, he still had a bottom line.

After a moment of silence, Kaiar buried his worries in his heart and gave Artemis a thumbs up on the surface.

The goddess stared deeply at Kaiar's frivolous look, then covered her mouth and chuckled.

"Let's not talk about those little scorpions, Kaiyal. My new little follower might not be simple this time."

"Even with the village already destroyed, that child was able to run here despite being chased by so many scorpions. That kind of physical strength and speed... speaks volumes."

"This is a child with an equally impressive talent."

Of course, Kaiyal also saw this.

He knew that if the girl did not have this ability and was just a fragile girl, Artemis would never allow her to join her clan.

Clearing monsters in the wild all year round and traveling around the world has never been an easy task. If you are not careful, you may lose your life.

You have to know that Artemis' family is not like Hermes' family. They have a big daddy like "The Almighty" who has countless means to protect them.

"Lady Artemis is indeed kind and intelligent~"

He sighed unconsciously, but Kaiar seemed to have forgotten that Artemis was right next to him.

The goddess sitting on the stone stared at Kaiar who was shaking constantly with a smile, and her eyes gradually softened.

Just when Kaiar thought the goddess was going to do something to him, Artemis just waved her hand.

"Now take a good rest."

"We won't rest today. We'll march to the village at night later."

"If we arrive a little later, a village might suffer an unexpected disaster."

Kaiar had anticipated Artemis's choice, so he suggested:

"Then the goddess and I will rush over first."

"I still have plenty of energy, but that's not the case with your followers, Master Artemis."

"As for those monsters, I can handle them alone."

After a moment of hesitation, Artemis nodded.

"Sometimes, I even doubt whether your soul, Kaiyal, is pure white."

"A kind soul is not necessarily pure~"

He responded casually and winked at Lanti, who had been hiding in the forest and secretly observing him and Artemis.

Then he picked up Artemis who was about to say something else.

"and many more!"

"Although I agree with your plan, I haven't explained it to Letesha and the others yet!"

Ignoring Artemis's violent struggle, Kaiar swirled the optimization magic around his body and stomped his feet before rushing towards the people in the village ahead.

Lan Di, who witnessed everything that just happened, covered his mouth in disbelief.

The goddess was really kidnapped by Mr. Kaiyal!!

Although Lanti knew that the two had rushed over to support the village first, but...

ah...! !

The elf girl covered her cheeks with a blushing face, obviously thinking of the pure love story she watched with Letsa that day.

Just when she was about to turn around and share it with everyone, a green-haired elf with a chilling look all over his body appeared with eyes so cold that it seemed as if he wanted to kill someone!

"Mr. Kaiyal, you're acting on your own again."

"And you were so bold as to take Lady Artemis along for the adventure."

"It seems I was too lenient last time... I didn't take my life seriously..."

Chapter 128: The Destroyed Village

The gloomy Liu, the frightened Lan Di, the silent forest, and the awkward atmosphere.

Realizing that he might have frightened the half-elf girl in front of him, Liu straightened his throat and spoke in a serious tone:

"I was rude just now, colleague."

Colleagues? Lan Di breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that Miss Liu, who has a good relationship with Kaiar and Lady Artemis, is not a rigid person.

You know, many traditional elves are disgusted by half-elves, the impure products that taint their bloodline.

It even got to the point where they would call each other bastards as soon as they met.

However, this doesn't seem to be the case for Miss Liu in front of him.

An inexplicable sense of intimacy emerged, and Lanti clenched her fists. After all, Lady Artemis had been kidnapped, so she could do whatever she wanted, right?!

"Ryu...Sister...can you tell me a little love story?"

"Normally, among the goddess's family, you can't even mention anything about love. If you do, Artemis-sama will become very scary!"

Originally, he wanted to chase Kaiar and the others, but when he looked at the very cute girl in front of him with her light blue hair, for some reason, he suddenly thought of his good friend, Adi.

Still soft-hearted...

Stopping his plan to chase Kaiar, an elf who had never been in love seriously gave some science advice to the half-elf in front of him who was full of expectation.

----------

Located in an extremely remote area.

Located right in the middle of the line between Orario and the Great Forest Secret Realm.

Surrounded by mountains and valleys, a small town built on a gently sloping mountainside appears extremely quiet in the dark night.

This is a small town that can accommodate thousands of people, or more precisely, a large village.

Countless single-family houses built of stone bricks and tiles are scattered all over the mountainside.

It was already dark, but no one lit a light.

Combined with the dead trees that have withered away to the point of having no leaves left growing on the upper half of the mountain, a feeling of deep horror sweeps over this large village in the mountains.

The small carts that the village usually uses to purchase necessary supplies are piled up in a scattered manner at the entrance of the village.
