"I said, is it really necessary?"
Despite Wolf's seemingly shy voice, Ira continued flying at high speed without changing his expression... He glanced at Wolf, whom he was holding in a princess carry, and said, "You're too slow, slower than Satan Ye."
Satanye glanced at Wolf, who was being held by Ira, and nodded, advising, "We need to return to the Demon King's territory as soon as possible. Is it uncomfortable to be held like this? Or are you not used to it?"
uncomfortable?
How should I put it... because of the power of the Crimson Dragon, Ira's embrace was very warm, and he was also very well-behaved, taking care not to touch any sensitive areas.
So, Wolfe had a long-lost feeling of lying in her mother's arms.
It's hard to describe this feeling as uncomfortable, so...
"I'm not quite used to it yet."
Wolf could only say this. She looked at Ira's back and awkwardly offered her suggestion, saying, "If you're okay with it, you can carry me on your back... although you might not be used to it."
In fact, Ira was aware of this as well. Compared to hugging someone while looking at each other, carrying someone on one's back was undoubtedly a less intimate and affectionate act. If he could, he would carry someone on his back instead of hugging them.
"I have wings on my back..."
As Ira said this, he looked at Wolfe, who seemed to realize it too, and smiled awkwardly. He gestured and suggested, "Perhaps I can carry you? On my shoulders?"
Wolf imagined the scenario and decided it was best to avoid it, so she shook her head and rejected the suggestion.
"Perhaps we could opt for a slightly slower approach... Anyway, I've already flown through the forest. How about we ride horses until we reach the next one?"
Ira asked this question, and Satanie, who was already exhausted from flying, nodded decisively and happily agreed: "Let's ride horses, let's ride horses~ I'm so tired these past few days."
However, Wolfe looked very puzzled; she looked left and right but couldn't see any horses.
"If we could ride horses, that would be the best, of course, but..."
Where is the horse?
As Wolfe was saying this, she was about to ask another question when she felt Ira begin to rapidly plunge towards the ground, the immense wind pressure making it difficult for her to open her mouth.
Just before landing, Ira rapidly slowed down, then landed lightly on the ground like a butterfly or dragonfly. Satan Leaf followed closely behind, but...
"Smack!"
Because Satan Leaf didn't slow down, one of her feet sank into the mud... This patch of grass always seemed to be wet and mushy, after all, it was adjacent to a swamp.
"Ugh!!!"
The Satanic Leaf, having pulled its foot out, let out this lovely, mournful cry.
Ira shook his head helplessly. He gestured for Satan to fly up, and as he chanted "Third Wing Pillar - Vampire - Wingspan" and pulled the trigger, a thin stream of blood flowed down his wrist, wiping Satan's shoes clean.
Then, he casually threw the blood onto the grass... That patch of grass will probably become quite fertile afterward, right?
"Second Wing Pillar - Headless Horseman - Wingspan!"
As Ira spoke, black mana gradually emerged from beneath him, forming a frame that lifted his figure, and Wolf, whom he was holding, also felt the increase in height.
Wolf looked down curiously and saw a headless armored warhorse whose head was replaced by a ghostly blue flame. Then, in a dizzying moment, she was moved by Ira to the back of the horse.
Satan Ye quickly sat down in front of Ira, and between Ira's arms, which were holding the reins, he wrapped his arms around the horse's neck to secure himself.
"hold me."
As Ira gave the instructions, Wolfe, after confirming that Ira was speaking to her, swayed her tail in confusion, but decisively wrapped her arms around Ira's waist.
Then, with the speed of a swift arrow, she realized the necessity of Iraq's orders.
"Second wing pillar? What's that?"
Wolf asked this question... It is worth mentioning that the position of consul is a relatively mysterious profession in many countries, and most countries only have a superficial understanding of it.
Even the monsters, who are rivals of the Empire, still don't understand why the anti-magic stone doesn't work on the governor.
Even within the empire, most nobles are unclear about the workings of the consuls. If there is little investigation into Ira, they may not even have a clear understanding of the consuls' limitations... such as Vera, who is unaware that consuls cannot have offspring.
Therefore, the orc kingdoms that did not fight against the Empire might only understand their governors as powerful, terrifying, reapers of the weak, and overwhelmingly powerful towards non-humans.
"The power mechanism of the Archon is to apply all of his own Mana to the [Wing Pillar] that carries the Mana of others, and the triggering is to call up the Mana of others within the Wing Pillar. Because of the World Tree's directional nature, it can ignore many Mana calling rules."
As Ira said this, he looked at Satan Ye, who looked completely bewildered, and then at Wolf, who looked equally bewildered. After a moment of thought, he decided to say something that the two of them could understand, and said, "Each of the four wing pillars has its own function. Different Manas can exert different abilities when inserted into different wing pillar slots."
"The first wing pillar is the [Core] wing pillar. When I insert the Crimson Dragon Mana, I am practically a Crimson Demon Dragon. The second wing pillar is the [Movement] wing pillar. When I insert the Headless Knight Mana, a warhorse will appear. When I insert the Vampire Mana, it will turn into a blood mist that can move quickly."
As Ira spoke, noticing the two who were starting to take an interest, he continued, "The third wing pillar is magic, or rather, ranged means, while the fourth wing pillar is melee, or rather, weapon-based."
"..."
"So, how do other people obtain Mana?"
Wolf asked.
“Wait for the non-humans around me to die, or… let them give themselves to me.”
As Ira said this, he exchanged a smile with Satan, who had turned his head away.
...
Wolf seemed to understand a little now, but she still had some questions. She hugged Ira tightly and asked, "So, how does the Archon obtain the first Mana? How strong is the Archon when there's nothing in the [Wing Pillar]?"
"Without the [Wings], the Governor is extremely weak."
Ira answered decisively, and amidst a puzzled "Eh?" voice behind her, she chuckled and continued, "After all, the position of governor was created for the battlefield, and on the battlefield..."
"The one thing we have in abundance is death."
