Arthur stood next to Joy and closely observed the magic she was performing.

My skills have improved again in just a few days. The composition of magic has become more elaborate.

I was looking at it, wondering if I might make a mistake, but it seems like I was worried for no reason.

Arthur let out a sigh of relief and relaxed his shoulders, then quickly turned his head when he heard a rustling sound. Lucy Alln was lying on the floor.

Mace, who had no intention of letting go for a moment, rolled on the floor, the shield that had made her seem more reliable than anyone else could not even make a rattling sound, and her unruly posture, like a doll with a broken string, was ominous, as if announcing death.

Arthur, who was looking at Lucy blankly, ignoring the noise around him, let out a laugh. Are you trying to make fun of us again?

haha. Probably so. What reason is there for that guy to collapse now?

If you want to act, you have to make it believable.

Who would believe him if the guy who just moments ago clearly revealed that he was loved by the Lord suddenly collapses?

“There is nothing wrong with my body. Everything is fine. But why? why? Why don’t you wake up?”

Arthur, who was trying hard to deny reality, came to his senses belatedly when he saw Fabi’s pale face.

“Recovery magic is meaningless. There is no curse either. Then.”

“Paybee. Calm down. Just saying that without thinking.”

“Young-ae has collapsed, how do you calm down!”

A nervousness that was never seen in front of others. Seeing her panicking and losing even the thought of holding on to reason, Arthur, who became calm, took a deep breath and stood in front of Fabi.

“Saint.”

“Not this either. This also makes no sense. then. Then.”

“Saint!”

It wasn’t until she used her magic to insert her voice directly into Faby’s mind that she raised her head and made eye contact with Arthur.

“Do you think Lucy Alln is someone who will fall into vain like this? Have you decided to follow in the footsteps of such a weak person?”

“…No.”

“Then calm down. Expending your energy in this way will only make the situation worse.”

When Faby, whose eyes were trembling, folded her hands on her chest and took a step back, Arthur sighed and looked to the side.

The sculpture of Soladin sitting next to him said nothing and glanced to the right.

When I turned my gaze to follow him, I saw Frey, who had already drawn his sword, confronting a woman whose sword was made out of tree roots.

Karl, whose eyes were as sharp as the tip of a spear, erased all emotions and asked in a dry voice.

“Did you do this?”

“Yes. I invited him.”

“Why?”

“To ask for help from someone with the energy of the Lord.”

The moment the woman smiled, Frey swung his sword and cut off her head, but the woman’s face was only replaced by tree roots that had grown again.

Frey, seeing this, tried to swing the sword again, but the sword stuck out one arm and blocked her.

“I have no intention of attacking you.”

“How do you believe that?”

“How do you think I was able to break through that person’s strong mental barrier? As a mere part of the queen, I am never strong enough to delve into her mind. The reason I was able to spend cozy time with that person was because that person’s guardian allowed me.”

“I wish you could speak in a way that I can understand.”

“Ah. Don’t you know completely what that person has? I’m in trouble.”

“No. understand. You’re probably trying to say that Ruel gave you permission.”

It was Fabi who answered the woman who was thinking while resting her chin on her hand.

“Accurate. The one who embraces the light of the Lord.”

“May I ask why Ruel-sama allowed you to approach the Lady?”

The woman, who had raised the corners of her mouth at the unusually cold tone of her voice, bowed her head politely.

“The greeting was late. I am the queen of fairies. This is a sculpture of someone who is in a deep sleep and wandering between dreams and reality.”

Fairy Queen. The worst enemy they ever thought of. The group, who were always ready to go into battle, naturally stood where each other should be.

This is a formation that has been practiced dozens, hundreds, and thousands of times. There is no discrepancy here.

“I told you that I had no intention of being hostile. do not you know? It’s difficult for a mental body like me to lie. Is it true?”

Seeing the queen tilting her head as if she didn’t understand why, Joey recalled what Erginus had told her.

Fairies are pure. Because they are so pure, they believe that others will also be pure. This is no different even if she is a fairy queen. To put it simply, the head is a flower garden.

“Even if you touch someone else’s friend without saying anything and say you have no hostility, it’s not persuasive.”

As Joy explained, representing the feelings of everyone present, the Fairy Queen folded her arms.

Looking at the wrinkles that appear between the eyebrows, it seems like they are worried about how to persuade them.

“Can’t I just cut it? I think I can cut it.”

“Lady of Kent. I think so too, but please wait. If this guy is the reason you fell, there is no point in just killing him.”

“Carl is right. Fray Kent. I hope you evolve from beasts to humans.”

“Hmm. Mmm.”

While Frey was mumbling to resist his impulses, the Fairy Queen, who had been frowning arrogantly, suddenly raised her head.

“Huh?”

She let out a voice filled with confusion and quickly turned her gaze to the back of the group, to where Lucy Aln had fallen.

“Haaam.”

Lucy Aln had suddenly woken up, stretching and yawning.

The group who were worried about her were dumbfounded by her behavior, which seemed to show no signs of tension.

“It was a really boring dream.”

When I saw Lucy’s mischievous smile, I lost my mind.

Her smile, shining brightly even on the barren land stained with the energy of evil spirits, had the power to melt people’s hearts.

‘…Did your grandfather let you in? Somehow it turned out to be a lot more shabby than I had feared.’

Breaking through my mental barrier meant that I had almost reached the level of an evil god, but even for that, the forest prepared by the Fairy Queen was very poor.

If anything, the trials prepared by Ganshu were much more threatening.

It’s content that wasn’t in the game, so it brings back my excitement for a moment!

I’m sure it won’t end like this. There must be something more after this. Otherwise, there’s no way I could have shouted so confidently.

After trying my best to ignore countless other anxieties, I waited for Phase 2 to arrive and, oh my, did I wake up from a fucking dream?

‘Are you watching everything?’

‘Hehe. grandfather. We’ve been getting along really well lately, right? ‘Shall we have a conflict like before after a long time?’

I stood up, ignoring my grandfather’s desperate excuses, passed by my friends who were looking at me blankly, and approached the fairy queen who had taken shape through the rotten tree roots.

“I’m ready to declare defeat. Chicken house lady?”

The price for betraying my innocence is high. How dare you challenge me with a dungeon like that?

I feel like I want to tie him on a leash and make him walk around the forest shouting, “I’m a poor old lady who got spoiled by a girl even though I’ve lived for nearly a thousand years.”

If I did something like that, some guy out there would make a fuss, so I wouldn’t do that.

“…Yes. I was defeated.”

“That’s strange. Why is my head so stiff? You have the title of queen on your face, but don’t you know what etiquette is?”

“Yes?”

“Hit your head. A crazy-looking woman who can’t even understand the topic. I need to get a proper apology from the idiot who still acts like this even though he said he would save me.”

Of course, I’m not going to do anything that stands out. I deserve a proper apology. How dare you set your expectations on me and then immediately disappoint you…

Huh. no.

The crime of betraying Erginus’ efforts! It will never be small! If you know the example, apologize! Fairy Queen!

“That. Ugh. crime. Sorry…”

Satisfied to see the Fairy Queen, who had been acting like something had happened, lowered her head, I turned to explain the current situation to my friends.

And I blinked at the confused look of my friends.

hmm. Umm. As someone who didn’t know anything, did it seem like a bit of trash?

*

Fortunately, it wasn’t that difficult to resolve the misunderstanding. The Fairy Queen, who admitted defeat, personally explained the situation.

My friends, who understood that I had gathered all the power of the country to save someone, but that person was asking me to kill them, acknowledged that I deserved to be angry.

“I thought so. Lucy Alln: Even though you seem mindless, I know you are meticulous.”

“That’s right. Despite appearances, Lucy is nice.”

“Why do you mention the obvious? If you’re angry, it’s obvious that there’s a reason, right?”

“…I think there were quite a few cases of being bullied for no reason.”

“What. Idiot?”

“No! I was delirious for a moment! Lucy!”

I don’t know why, but I glared at Karl, who was shaking his head with a happy smile behind me, and spoke to the Fairy Queen, who was kneeling on the floor and watching.

“The chicken house lady who became innocent because her brain was rotten. Of course I’m sure you understand, but we have a lot to ask, right?”

“Yes. Yes. Please ask me anything.”

I thought it was strange that the Fairy Queen had become more cooperative than when I met her in my mind, but it was still better than whining that she couldn’t do anything.

“Tell me what’s going on in there.”

When the Fairy Queen heard my question, she thought for a moment and then let out a lamentable voice.

“The queen’s dream is about to end. Because the person of my dream appeared in reality.”
