Hills of blooming flowers.
The three of them came to the tombstone holding flowers.
She gently put the flowers down.
Staring at the tombstone silently.
Huh~!
A gust of wind blew, blowing the petals off and scattering them into the sky.
She smoothed her hair that was messed up by the wind, and her eyes followed the petals that were flying farther and farther away.
"Russell, go well..."
Between the crowns of the World Tree.
There is a temple that was built not long ago.
The temple was empty. Apart from the fire dragon sleeping at the door, there seemed to be no other figure.
And deep in this temple.
Several crystal coffins were carefully placed in a magic circle.
The four of them, an elf, a dwarf, an orc, and a human, were sleeping peacefully in the coffins, with holy staffs, shields, bows and arrows, and long swords placed in front of them respectively.
“…That’ll do.”
Fairies, elves, and a half-demon girl with blonde hair and purple eyes were silently gazing at the four crystal coffins.
The elf glanced at the blonde girl and said:
"Alice, don't worry... one day, there will be a way to rescue Arthur and the others."
The blonde girl nodded slightly.
She walked to the human youth's crystal coffin, gently stroked the surface of the crystal coffin with her fingers, and stared at the youth with her purple eyes for a long time.
"Brother, I will always be with you..."
... ...
... ...
I don’t know how many years have passed.
Somewhere in the universe.
"...This is the Banluo Empire Border Patrol. Spaceship ahead, you are within the Banluo Empire's borders. Please show your information."
The sudden broadcast sounded directly in the cab.
"The Empire's border guards? Uh... Let me think, how does this ship transmit signals? Is this it?"
Ding!
"That's not it, that's canceling the gravity simulation!"
"Why didn't you tell me earlier? If you could help, wouldn't it be less troublesome?"
"Repeat... Please show..."
"Please enter the activation code."
"I already told you, the person who sold me the spaceship didn't give me anything like that."
"That's a pity. I can't help you."
"Then at least help me restore some of the gravity system."
"Please enter the activation code."
"Repeat... ...information please!"
"Ah! Seriously, what kind of spaceship did that profiteer sell me? Not only does it not even have a pilot manual, but it also comes with a useless, noisy machine."
"Who is a useless machine?! I am a super-intelligent ship-borne auxiliary intelligent being manufactured by the Empire! I am a noble magical alchemical life form! I am not some scrap metal manufactured by the Civilization Council!"
“… Please show me the information!!!”
On a warship not far away, the soldiers on board were almost roaring.
However, the other party just ignored him.
"Damn it, if that's the case, don't blame me for taking coercive measures!"
Just as he was about to take action.
Inside the spaceship in front.
"Well, is this it?"
"Wait, stop it, don't move that!"
The intelligent being screamed, but it was too late. Hulim had already triggered a certain function.
Then, such a sound was heard in the spacecraft.
"The long-distance jump is about to begin. Please be prepared. Countdown 10, 9, 8..."
Hulim and the intelligent being were silent.
"How do I turn this off?"
"Please input activation... Ahhhh! Why did it become like this? If this continues, I'll be wanted!"
boom--!
As a dazzling light flashed, the spaceship where Hulim was located turned into a beam of light and flew into the distance. When the speed reached the critical point, it broke through the space and disappeared in the universe.
“… …”
On another warship, the soldiers watched all this in amazement, and their hands, which were about to activate the weapon system, silently turned to the other side.
"...This is the Banrol Empire Border Defense Dispatch Center. Is there anything I need to consult or report?"
"Report, a suspicious spaceship has been discovered, intruding into the imperial border, requesting support."
"Okay, we've received your request. We'll analyze it, discuss it in a meeting, and give you a reasonable response after comprehensive consideration. Until then, please..."
Veins gradually appeared on the soldier's forehead.
"Listen! I'm talking about a suspicious individual who broke into the Empire! Not only did that guy ignore all warnings, he even had the audacity to flee right in front of us. He's defying the Empire—!!!"
“… …”
There was a continuous silence on the other end of the line.
When the voice sounded again, it had become the voice of a serious middle-aged man.
"Soldiers, we are fully aware of the critical situation! We will immediately dispatch three thousand warships, led by seven ninth-rank elites from the Super Magic Corps, to carry out the capture! Those who dare to defy the Empire will be met with a taste of the Empire's fist—"
In the jump tunnel.
"Stop, stop now!"
Hulim frantically tried to control the ship.
"...the emergency escape system has been disengaged."
"...weapon systems activated."
But it just made the situation more confusing.
"Ah, this... When can I return to Himlier?"
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh...
The dazzling light produced by the jumps illuminated the universe, and densely packed giant warships filled the originally empty universe.
"The long-distance jump trajectory has been locked! Chase!"
As three thousand space battleships chased someone, they drew a brilliant river of light in the universe in unison, as if foreshadowing the beginning of a new adventure into the unknown...
Hulim's journey continues.
