Dahyun’s blue eyes lost her ability to judge.

Jelight, who was trying to stop Dahein from suddenly leaving, paused for a moment as his eyes became sharper.

However, because I knew how shocked he must have been, I spoke more calmly.

“Are you going to the kingdom right now?”

I just nodded at the teacher’s words and didn’t stop walking.

Since I couldn’t figure out how to overcome this embarrassing reality, I decided to run to the seriously injured Asian woman.

“Just in case, I have prepared a carriage to take you to {Alysseum Kingdom}.”

“If we leave now, we will arrive within 8 days.”

Since I was in an urgent situation, 8 days was too much time for me. It was long.

I use the [Subspace Ring] to open the map of the {Rizeslin} continent that I had prepared earlier, and immediately figure out where I am and where I need to go.

“It’s okay, teacher.”

＂Sorry about the class.＂

I release Teacher Zeright’s hand from holding me and head forward.

***

That’s how we arrived at the main gate of {Royal Academy}.

＂Dahuinnim..＂

Sein, who should have been asleep in my room, was waiting for me.

It seemed clear that Seinim had probably moved into Ber’s body.

＂Seinnim..＂

Because this reality had not yet hit me, my emotional ups and downs were not severe.

But why?

When I looked at Sein’s face, which seemed to embrace everything… Before I knew it, tears began to flow endlessly from the corners of my eyes.

Sein, who was always someone you could rely on…

Prison..

Without saying anything, he quietly approaches me and hugs me warmly.

As if he was telling me to cry in his arms and pour it all out.

“I am here. Dahuinnim…”

I can’t stop crying from her gentle consolation.

Better than ten words.

How great and helpful the comfort felt from such a warm act is…

I realized once again how precious such a person is to me.

“I’ll wait.”

The tears that had flowed down the back of Sein’s hand are wiped away.

Sigh..

Sein’s brief consolation was deeply embedded in my feelings and became the driving force to move forward.

I barely wiped away the tears that were welling up in my eyes and quickly calmed my excited heart again.

She was always by my side when I was tired and tired.

Determined that I will overcome any ordeal, I hug Seinnim tightly once again and receive strength.

Come on…

“thank you.”

I convey my sincere feelings to her.

“And.. I love you.”

This is not a hasty confession due to emotional swings.

It was a certainty that he had now completely accepted her existence, and it was a clear proof that he would be his companion for the days to come.

Sein’s expression stiffened for a moment at Dahyin’s sudden confession of love.

“Please wait a moment.”

I left him behind and quickly ran past the carriage parked at the main gate of the {Royal Academy}.

Sein was left alone like that…

no.

{Piece of sloth}..

＂I love you too.. Dahein.＂

“I’ll wait forever.”

***

Since I already had some idea of the route to {Alysseum Kingdom} on the map, I was able to figure out why it took 8 days by carriage.

Between {Alyseum Kingdom} and {Royal Academy}, there were two paths that forked, and in the center of them was a large, round river.

Moreover, both paths are blocked by large stone mountains, so if you travel by horse-drawn carriage, you will have to take a long detour.

I was in an urgent situation because I could tell from the contents of the letter how serious Asia’s sister’s injuries were.

＇As expected, going straight is the answer..＇

Sweet!!

As I look at the red light of the [Magic Compass] in the [Subspace Ring], I am convinced that my mother, who was said to be missing, is alive.

I wanted to follow this light and go find my mother right away, but right now, Asia’s condition took priority.

Moreover, there was nothing more foolish than acting without any information.

“after…”

I surround my entire lower body with [titanium] slime, completely arming myself.

In a form suitable only for increasing speed and jumping power.

Slippery…

Taaa!!

I jumped up high into the building and moved quickly across the roof.

The elasticity felt when bending and straightening the knee.

Even elasticity that responds more flexibly.

It was as if wings had been added to me, who already possessed the {Three-legged Step} method of the wolf-beast race.

If I had gone by carriage…

I don’t think we could have even reached halfway here.

Not only did the uneven terrain require rest from the large crowds of people and the horses pulling the carriages.

＇Faster..＇

***

After running for a while, the sun was already setting and the moonlight had already risen to mid-sky.

Taaa!!

The end of the forest is visible.

Splash… splash…

Now, in order to get to {Alyseum Kingdom}, I had to cross this river with a swift current that I could see in front of me.

I clear my throat for a moment and then prepare my mind.

“after..”

Feeling that I couldn’t stop here, I secured as much jumping distance as possible and ran forward at once, accelerating even more, and soon jumping high towards the river.

Taaa!!!

The speed and jumping power became one and it seemed like it was flying in the sky, but it would be more accurate to say that it was running.

Soon, my body began to fall by gravity into the river with its rough current.

Even before the heartbreaking feeling subsides…

I take out [Freeze Bullet], a {disposable magical tool} that I had made a while ago in [Subspace Ring], and boldly throw it at the landing area.

Suuk!!

It was something I created by imitating the ones in the {Disposable Magic Tools} store.

Its shape and size were as small and light as candy, but because it was a magic stone created by processing each piece directly with a {magic iron}, its power was on a different level than that of a typical {disposable magic tool}.

PAD DEUD DEUD!!

No, is it different?

[Ice coal] thrown into the river was distorted by the strong impact on the surface and radiated cold with tremendous force.

Some surfaces of the river froze instantly, creating a land mass made of icebergs.

So, I transformed the {armor} into a form with protruding protrusions on the soles of my feet to prevent it from slipping.

The rat steps on the ice.

＂{Badojutsu slash}..＂

In order to offset the impact of falling to the ground, I immediately cast {Badojutsu Slash} so that I can move forward.

My body, which immediately converted the vertically falling force to the front, began to move forward without losing momentum.

Taaa!!

The more we move forward…

The expression becomes distorted as if it is difficult to face the unbelievable reality.

I didn’t stop running, hoping that all of this was a lie.

Stamina, agility, magic…all {stats} have now increased.

There was no major problem crossing this overflowing and turbulent river. It just took time…

***

After running all night, I arrived at the main gate of {Alyseum Kingdom} and handed over the letter I received yesterday to the royal knights blocking my path.

“It’s urgent.”

＂Please open it..＂

I had the urge to break through the royal knights blocking my path, but I regained my composure for a moment.

‘There’s a sister over there..’

Suddenly.

The royal knights received the letter handed to them by Dahuin, looked it over, and soon posted an information sign to confirm that they had completed the confirmation.

“I’ve waited a long time.”

He then handed the letter to another colleague who was waiting, told him to report it to his superiors, and headed to where the royal knights were located with Dahein.

***

“Hey.. but.. doesn’t it usually take a week to get here from the academy at the earliest??”

The colleague who received the letter looks at this and is puzzled.

＂Right.. Why??＂

“No… think about it.”

“It’s been 9 days since Asia came here injured??”

“And if I had sent this letter right away, it would have taken about 8 days.”

“Then I heard you came this far in just one day after the letter arrived.. can you believe it??”

＂Eh, eh.. no way..＂

The female knights who were watching the back of Dahein leaving looked as if they were seeing him as the lord of Diendeluka… or the leader of Dincia.

***

With the guidance of the female doctor guarding the front door, I was able to arrive at the infirmary where Asia was located. Despite the dissuasion from the other doctors guarding the door, I opened the door without a moment of hesitation.

Crash!!

“Who, sister???”

Asia’s condition as she lay in bed was truly horrendous.

Asian sister, who always greeted me with a smile, suddenly disappeared and was filled with pain…

Her left arm had somehow been cut as if it had been torn off at the shoulder, and was bleeding significantly.

And above all… Aisanu’s body was full of cuts here and there, as if he had been hacked to pieces with a knife.

The doctors who were treating Asianunam, who was truly surviving to the point where it was a miracle that she was still alive, were concentrating on taking turns without stopping the recovery magic.

Despite the doctors’ recovery magic, Asia’s condition did not improve, and only loud sounds of pain could be heard from her.
