Chapter 139 The Difficult Guard



“… …”

Aren't you a cat orc? Why does your nose look like a dog orc's...

"It's an illusion."

"Huh? But—"

"Look, this underground is where those guys are active, right? I've been running around a lot trying to lure them away, so I might have picked up someone's scent somewhere."

"Huh? Huh? Is that so?!"

"Yeah, that's it!"

“… …”

"...Hey, Hulim, you didn't lie to me, did you?"

"...Why hasn't Arthur come out yet? Has he encountered any problems? Let's go in and take a look."

"Eh??? Wait, Hulim, were you hesitant just now?!"

"Okay, Miko, this isn't the place to chat. Let's talk about it after we get out."

"Uh, but... well, okay..."

Inside the prison.

Hulim and Miko came in.

"Arthur, are you still not feeling well—"

"Alice! Alice, wake up! Don't scare me!"

As soon as I came in, I heard Arthur's anxious voice.

Without hesitation, Hulim and Miko immediately rushed to the cell where the three people were.

"What happened?"

As soon as he arrived here, he saw Arthur holding Alice with an anxious look on his face, while the latter was unconscious in his arms.

"Claire, what happened to Alice?"

Miko immediately asked Claire, who was standing next to him with an anxious look on her face.

"I, I don't know what happened... When you guys went out fighting, Alice was fine... Then there was an earthquake, and during the lull in the earthquake, Alice suddenly fell ill, and it was worse than any other time. No matter how we called her, she wouldn't wake up!"

After listening to Claire's explanation, Hulim looked at Alice carefully.

Alice's eyes were tightly closed at this moment, with a painful expression on her face. Most importantly...

Starting from her right eye, a large number of strange purple lines spread to the entire right side of her face.

"Let me try."

Hulim walked over.

"Can you, can you do that?"

Arthur asked eagerly.

"I can only try."

"cure."

The light of healing magic fell on Alice.

However, Alice's condition not only did not improve, but even worsened, and the expression on her face became even more painful.

Hulim had to stop casting healing magic.

She had never heard of Alice in this situation before, and since healing magic was ineffective, she didn't know how to deal with it.

"The healing magic is not working. We must get her out immediately and find someone to treat her."

"Yes, get out... We have to get out quickly! Alice, wait for me, I will definitely save you!"

... ...

Near the exit leading to the ground.

Hulim stopped.

"Arthur, take Alice to see a doctor first. I have some things to take care of."

"good!"

Arthur didn't ask any more questions, carrying Alice on his back and continued running forward.

Miko stopped and looked at Hulim.

"Mike, you go too."

"Huh? Why, I want to go with you!"

"Before coming here to rescue you, I met Alicia. She has already gone to inform the Knights. Now the Knights may have come up there, but they may not have come yet. You have to go up there to guide them to find the entrance here."

"Um... okay."

Although Mi Ke was a little hesitant, he still agreed.

After Miko left, Hulim immediately returned deep underground.

I was worried about Miko and Arthur's condition, so I went to look for them immediately, and I didn't have time to deal with the aftermath...

Looking at the utterly destroyed scene before her, Hulim raised her wand.

"...Luckily, this guy is a fire mage, so it's easier to deal with the traces."

After being caught by someone through magic that was not properly handled, Hulim will never make the same mistake again.

Now that I have done something like this, I must destroy all traces completely and leave no magical clues for others to investigate.

The raging flames gradually covered the entire underground area, melting all the buildings while also covering up all traces of magic except for fire magic. As for the fire magic, after burning it so recklessly, nothing useful could be seen left...

"Next, that's where..."

The deepest underground space was also severely damaged due to the battle with Morga, but destroying the traces of magic here was only secondary.

Looking at the magic circle that had withstood the aftermath of the battle and remained intact, Hulim raised his wand.

"The earth surges!"

... ...

Ground level, abandoned church.

Arthur and his group of four walked out of the abandoned church.

"The nearest doctor's office is in—"

"Stop, what are you guys doing?"

Just as Arthur was trying to search for clues about the doctor from his memory, a rude voice interrupted his thoughts.

Then, more than twenty security guards surrounded them.

"Ask you what you do, are you mute?!"

A guard dressed as a guard captain cursed loudly.

Arthur narrowed his eyes slightly, he felt a familiar malice from these people.
