Chapter Index

    chimera. Can I call you that? Because it seemed like different monsters were living in one body.

    There were two snake heads, and what was connected to them was not a scaly body, but a lion’s body with brown fur fluttering around. It even has two tails.

    It spits fire from its mouth. Run through the forest in an instant. I thought it must have been the work of that monster.

    Kieee! Grumble, growl.

    My head was pounding. I already felt like I had lost my sense of balance because I had just been shocked, but on top of that, I couldn’t come to my senses when a loud noise pierced my ears.

    “Veronica! Sorry sorry… ! I should have crashed… !”

    At that moment, Kylon, who had been avoiding the front line for a while, ran towards me.

    I barely managed to focus my eyes and turned them on Kailon, and I couldn’t help but sigh.

    Is there anything to be sorry about for something like this?

    In fact, it was my fault for not being able to react properly because I was distracted by the monster’s appearance.

    If you look over there, not only the three of them, but they also avoided Flora.

    Comparing our physical abilities, there isn’t much difference between Flora and I, but if I, who was at the back, couldn’t avoid it, it was just because I was dull and not paying attention.

    I wanted him to support me, but my body felt heavy due to my wet body.

    But the cleansing magic he used all the time erased all the clutter, so all that was left was my dizziness.

    “Hmm… ”

    I groaned and narrowed my eyes, and soon my mind became clear again.

    And at the same time, Kylon jerked his head up.

    “… It’s hiding in the forest over there.”

    After saying that, Kylon lifted the holy sword he was holding in one hand and held it in place with both hands.

    This time, there was a chimera that rushed at the sight of Kylon.

    Tadadat. Even though it was on the water, a new type of monster was approaching in front of my eyes, quickly closing the distance as if that couldn’t slow it down, and I hesitated and took a step back.

    After that, Kailon took a deep breath.

    There was something I once said. It was even recent.

    I thought of Kylon’s voice, perhaps trying to put me at ease, telling me to leave it to me with peace of mind, saying that the four reinforcements were over and I had transcended it once.

    And as if overlapping with that voice, the words came out with Kylon’s inhalation and exhalation.

    “… Because there is an enemy in front of me, I will destroy it.”

    It was like a verse from the Bible. Or maybe it was as if someone was making a revelation.

    It was the same as when I borrowed power from God to use it. But even so, I could only feel a different force from the one I had wrapped around his body.

    Is it because I do not borrow power directly from God, but receive power through the holy sword?

    I’m not sure, but it seemed like aura was flowing from Kylon’s sword.

    Just a few days ago, I was just swinging a sword, but now it feels completely different, which made me think that I have really grown.

    I watched it for a moment, and then I didn’t want to bother Kailon and the other kids, so I walked out of the valley and hid in a tree in the bush.

    Key profit?! Degrrr!

    A panicked sound is heard from the chimera. At the same time, Kylon shouted, and at the same time, the ground shook and the shock went through his body.

    I, who was hiding behind a tree, let out a sigh, then popped my head out and looked at him.

    There was a sore on one side of his scaly neck.

    If Kylon looks like that even though he released his power, is Kylon weak? Or is that monster unusually strong?

    That’s what I thought, I had so many thoughts that the thought of Tal passed through my head.

    At this moment, when everyone was faithful to their roles, I wondered if it would make sense to try to stay safe alone while watching other people fight, so I searched through my bag to do what I could.

    Six empty glass bottles that clatter open, and an ordinary knife inside them.

    I expressed my gratitude to Kailon. At this moment, there was no need to take out the dagger that was stuffed inside the skirt or on the thigh.

    Roll up your sleeves. Fill it with blood.

    I don’t pray. Because I felt like I shouldn’t worry Kylon like I did before.

    Because I couldn’t lie down for days like before, and furthermore, I couldn’t give up my entire mind.

    My eyebrow twitched. It meant it was painful.

    I knew well that it hurt, but I also knew the feeling of the pain being erased.

    I hoped that blood would flow out from the gash, so I squeezed as much blood into it as I could, put it in my bag, and ran back to the valley.

    Because of the feeling of blood draining from my head, I lost track of time for a moment, but then I noticed the chimera’s head being cut off.

    Soon, Flora’s staff started crying, and a dark cloud with a cracking sound took shape and shot lightning at the monster.

    Linda’s fist struck the monster’s neck in an instant, and when its scales were ruined, Agnes did not miss the opportunity and quickly came up and stabbed it.

    With blood flowing out of his mouth, Kailon let out a tired tone and started the car.

    The moment the weapon was started, the blade, which originally existed as a solid object, was covered in light and the shape of the sword seemed to expand.

    At the sound of air being cut apart, the last remaining head spouted out fire from its mouth, as if embarrassed. At the same time, it seemed like it was trying to swing its neck to hit Flora and move into their blind spot.

    “Aaaah!”

    Flora rolled on the gravel, causing her palms to bleed, and at the same time, Kylon, who was pushed away while trying to block her, lost his balance.

    Up until now, it seemed like they had a clear advantage, but perhaps for a breakthrough, the sight of the chimera immediately knocked down two people, bit Agnes’s sleeve, and threw her into the air.

    “Ugh, Agnes… ! Flora, are you okay?!”

    “Queu, hexagram, it’s okay, black.”

    While I was swallowing a painful breath, the only thought that came to my mind was that if this continued, their injuries would not heal and the number of people who could fight properly would decrease.

    This would mean that the party would suffer defeat, and it shouldn’t have happened that way.

    I had to get the reinforcement stone that the monster swallowed here.

    I was hiding in a tree and watching their movements. The moment Agnes fell to the ground and lost consciousness from the shock of the fall, I kicked the ground and ran towards them. Then he took out the potion bottle he had kept in his bag and held it out to them.

    “Quick treatment… !”

    “Uh, thank you… !”

    Kailon, who became impatient, nodded and accepted.

    Linda, who was still intact, was attracting the chimera’s attention, but it was obvious that this would happen soon.

    Because it had such a long neck and couldn’t keep up with the speed at which it ran on all fours, I knew very well that it wouldn’t be enough to stop it with just one person.

    “Huh, huh… ”

    After seeing Kylon feeding my blood to the moaning Flora, I nodded and looked at Agnes.

    The spot where she was located was behind where the chimera was now, and she had to pass by the chimera once.

    Seeing that he couldn’t come to his senses right away, it seemed like he was having a hard time getting up, so I couldn’t tell him to catch it because I was going to throw it.

    “Ha, I’m holding one by one. If you happen to approach the fallen sister, please heal her quickly.”

    That being said, there are still two bottles left.

    In this struggling situation, if you use the power of light, you will definitely be able to win easily. However, it was a power that was difficult to use because the penalty for using it was too large.

    In that case, there was no choice but to go back to the beginning and unleash that power.

    A power that does not necessarily require a penalty, but instead requires blood in return.

    There are two things I took out now.

    Anyway, if we got to the valley, there was nothing we couldn’t fight.

    I believed that if I only inflicted a fatal wound once, I would be able to deal with it somehow.

    Derrr!

    An unpleasant scratching sound comes from the throat and resounds across the sky.

    At the same time, I took advantage of that moment and threw a bottle.

    “God, condemn evil and give rest and peace to those who follow good.”

    In an instant, the bottle filled with blood began to glow blue.

    And then, the bottle that broke after hitting the monster’s body spread into fire and began to burn the monster.

    now… !

    “Kwaaak!”

    Linda bought time by herself and flew away with a body slam.

    She flew towards the forest instead of the valley, hit her back against a tree, let out a short moan, and then fell down. He looked like he was trying to get up shakily, but it seemed like it was a battle of mental strength and his body couldn’t stand it.

    Kylon, whose eyes widened at the sight of the chimera running through the blue torch, stood up quickly and grabbed the holy sword.

    At the moment of running like that, the chimera’s neck stretched out and soon avoided Kylon’s sword and headed towards Flora.

    It seemed like he was trying to throw Flora away like Agnes.

    Flora, who had just recovered, was staring at this stiffly, so I pushed her away and took the last potion in my hand.

    The moment I was bitten by its mouth, I threw the potion bottle into its mouth and memorized a prayer. As soon as the fire started and my body flew into the air.

    It comes out often today. As soon as I thought about it, my body flew towards the cliff, and soon after repeated shocks and blinking vision, all I could do was stretch out my arms.

    The place where my body rolled ended up at the cliff, and I was barely able to hold on to my body with one arm.
