Leon was feeling a little awkward.

‘There is no magic to deal with multiple enemies… … .’

I didn’t know this because I’ve never faced 50 wizards before, but he doesn’t have range magic.

‘I need to learn secret magic quickly.’

While I was thinking that, the Guardian Robe was activated.

Leon turned his head and found Senghor holding the sword that had bounced away, looking bewildered.

As his colleagues rushed towards him, Leon was lifted into the air.

Guardian Robe had the ability to block only one attack.

That crude cut consumed one magic circle at a time.

Leon looked at Dave with eyes that needed explanation.

Dave also spoke in a bewildered manner.

“Wow, they are originally low quality. I didn’t think they would do that to the wizard… … .”

Leon had some idea of the psychology of the Senghor Party.

They have never seen an arcane wizard.

It was natural to think that using magic through memorization would take a long time to cast.

Even though nine lightning strikes in a row hit him, he may feel something strange, but he can’t think of anything more than that.

Rather, since a lot of force was used, it takes time.

As Senghor climbed to a height that Leon could not reach, he hurriedly threw away his weapon and tried to kneel.

Leon immediately shot an electric orb floating above his finger at Sengor.

Phagejik-

“Kkaaah.”

Sengor shivered as he was shocked by electricity.

He fell to the floor helplessly, his hair standing on end from the electricity, and smoke rising from his body.

Leon looked down at Senghor with a completely cold expression.

I was convinced that if I lived, it would not come back to me as something good.

“Okay, wait a minute!”

As they were creating four more beads, one of the Senghor party members intervened with an urgent voice.

The only female adventurer in the Senghor party, she separated herself from the group and clasped her hands together.

“I, I didn’t want to hit the back of the wizard’s head!”

“… .”

“I had no choice but to follow your words because I didn’t know what would happen if I didn’t. If you would show me mercy just this once… … .”

“What are you talking about, ugly lady.”

It was Karin who intervened in those words.

“When you used to say that you liked Sengor and you were a good eater, now you’re lying and saying you did it under duress?”

Karin shook her head with a look of disbelief.

“We know full well your misdeeds, so make more excuses.”

“… .”

The female adventurer kept her mouth shut.

If you keep your mouth shut right before you die, doesn’t that mean you really have nothing to say?

As soon as Karin and the female adventurer’s conversation ended, the other adventurer turned in the opposite direction and started running away.

Leon threw four marbles at the adventurers without hesitation.

Everyone, including you, lost their breath and fell to the floor.

No matter how bad the people were, four people lost their lives in an instant.

That too, was a magic created simply by a wizard.

Was that scary?

Dave looked at Leon with a nervous expression.

“… .”

Leon looked at the adventurers who had stopped breathing for a moment and caught his unsteady breath.

‘Killing is right.’

There were absolutely no people who would reflect on having saved their lives.

But unlike the wizard, I felt a strange sense of discomfort while watching the adventurers fall down one by one.

The power to kill a man as if stepping on a passing ant evoked more discomfort than omnipotence.

Leon realized once again that there was an unbridgeable gap between them.

“I’m sorry. I didn’t even notice the surprise attack properly… … .”

“Wake up.”

He relaxed his stiff face and came down from the air again, stepping on the ground.

“It was my mistake to come this deep because I was too excited.”

Leon said with a sigh, looking at the terrified Dave.

“We’re going to part ways here.”

“Huh? That means… … .”

“Don’t think strangely.”

Leon took a green flute out of his bosom and handed it over.

It was a D+ class guardian golem summoning flute.

“This, this is.”

“If you blow the flute, a golem will come out and protect you. You’ll have time to escape even if you encounter a larger group of monsters here.”

It’s no longer of much use to Leon, and he has no use for it since he’s thinking about making his own golem, but it’ll be enough to keep this party together.

Most good artifacts required magic power to be used, so there was no artifact better for those who had to get out of Area 2 with three people.

Leon planned to head straight into the depths of the Demon Forest.

Since I had no choice but to show my strength, there was nothing more to be embarrassed about.

“Can you give me this precious thing like this? We’ve only shown you our shortcomings.”

“It’s okay. I’m sorry I can’t go back with you.”

Leon put the flute into Deif’s hands.

“Oh, no. I will leave this flute as a family heirloom!”

“Why are you leaving that as a keepsake at your house? I gave it to you to use for a party.”

“It’s not that bad, so use it when you’re in danger and run away. And… …I believe you’ll tell the guild well.”

“Yes, don’t worry.”

Dave nodded quickly.

“I will be careful with my words.”

As Leon turned around, floating into the air again, he heard Karin’s voice from behind him.

“Can I see you again?”

When she turned her head, Dave was stopping her.

It was a familiar sight.

Leon smiled faintly on purpose.

“Someday, when the opportunity arises.”

Leon flew straight up towards deeper depths.

***

Leon continued into the forest of demons without stopping.

Endless green waves flow beneath your eyes.

The trees were all different sizes, adding to the three-dimensional feel of the forest.

From above, the monsters’ movements could be seen at a glance.

The movements of monsters moving busily as if preparing for battle.

Their actions had clear intentions.

The appearance of gathering or forming a large group at a specific point.

Some even built nests and stood guard.

I flew until it got dark, taking in those sights.

Leon entered a darker forest.

‘Is it zone 3?’

They said that flying monsters appear from Area 4, so there shouldn’t be any problem flying there even in the middle of the night.

Leon filled up his magic power in the orb and flew again, stopping his flight when he reached the end of Area 3.

‘Just in case, let’s move when it’s daylight.’

After making sure there were no orcs around, Leon got down and sat cross-legged.

I spent my time chewing on the dried meat, and when I heard the sound of monsters, I used my stealth cloak to wait for them to pass by.

After spending time quietly like that, it took flight again when the sun rose.

Coming down to the forest of demons and resting once was enough.

“Brain light.”

The griffon following Leon fired an electric orb, which was able to shake off the group without much trouble.

Leon realized that flying monsters weren’t a big problem yet and flew without caring if it got dark.

I think it flew like that for about 5 days.

If we divide it into districts, it’s about 15 districts.

It is unlikely that any adventurers have explored this place, so it probably never received that name.

By that time, the forest’s magic had become stronger.

Compared to the space inside the jewel, it was quite lacking, but I felt that it was different from the usual concentration.

Leon was currently running away from the monster that was following him.

Ten giant monsters were chasing Leon, flapping their small wings.

It was 5 meters long and had a bronze-colored body covered with hard scales.

The head on the end of the long neck resembled that of a crocodile.

There was a wildness deep in his red eyes.

“Kito.”

“Huh?”

When he called out to Kito, who was lying on top of Leon’s head, she answered in a languid voice.

“What is that?”

“The monster is called Drake.”

As Drake opened his mouth, a flaming breath poured out towards Leon.

Leon hurriedly used the acceleration of his golden wings to escape the range of the flames.

I’ve already tried attacking using magic.

It seemed like there was a hit, but it didn’t kill him all at once.

I guess I could handle one, but ten was impossible.

That was why Leon was scared and ran away.

However, Drake’s wings were not flapping very quickly.

That means you can ignore it.

‘It’s not far to the place Kito mentioned.’

Leon focused on using the orb to dodge Drake.

And when we reached the area Kito had spoken of, the air itself felt different.

It was as if the entire forest was holding its breath.

And the color of the forest was clearly different from before.

The green leaves gradually darkened until they were now clearly black.

The height of the trees has also grown to an incomparable size compared to before.

When he realized that he had really entered deep, Leon also moved forward cautiously, feeling nervous.

Kito said he hid the core in his cave.

Leon, who was flying in the direction he was heading as Kito grabbed his hair, stopped.

I was flying low, just above the densely packed trees, when at one point I felt a powerful aura.

“There’s a cheeky bastard stepping into my territory.”

And then something huge rose up before Leon’s eyes.

The scales rubbed against each other, making a sharp, metallic noise.

The body under the tree grew infinitely.

In an instant, three heads rose up to where Leon was flying.

Its heads were shaped like snakes, and each head was large enough to easily devour Leon.

The body extending from the head was also long like a snake.

As the three heads opened their mouths and howled, the space shook.

It was a chilling cry, a mixture of an ear-piercing scream and a deep roar.

Green liquid dripped from its sharp teeth.

It was a feeling that instinctively made Leon’s body flinch.

Within, all the eyes in each head were focused on one spot.

A total of three pairs of golden eyes were focused solely on Leon.

Leon’s heart began to pound.

This was the alarm that Leon had always experienced in moments of crisis.

The monster slowly licked Leon’s lips, who was parched.

Although there is a whirlwind of primal rage and hunger, there are times when there is a calculating glow of cool intelligence.

Should I run away or fight?

As Leon took a deep breath and calmed his mind.

“Sister?”

“… .”

The sharp gaze that seemed to penetrate the essence suddenly turned round.

Kito, who was lying on top of the head, spoke indifferently.

“Ah, you were the one who took over my territory.”

“That’s how it happened. Hehe… … .”

What is it?

Those innocent eyes.
