Underground City of Underwood, before the rubble of the dormitory.
Nearly an hour had passed since the Giant Tribe's attack. The rubble collection work had already begun.
Due to the fact that they had to complete the reconstruction work during the Eve Festival, everyone was seizing every minute and second to not bring disgrace to the Alliance's flag.
On the way back from the Alliance's headquarters, Flying Bird, Yao and Sixteen Nights left the group with the excuse that they were going to help with the reconstruction.
Perhaps Flying Bird and Yao truly wanted to help. But as for Sixteen Nights …
"That guy is just looking for a reason to go out and play."
Eight-cloud Ink shook his head.
Although the Giant Tribe had destroyed the underground city, most of the places were still intact. It would not be a disappointment if one were to go out and play.
"Ink, what's wrong?"
Noticing that Eight-cloud Ink seemed to be thinking about something, Ashina turned around and asked.
"I'm thinking of a question."
"Mn?"
This time, even Black Rabbit and Ren who were in front turned their heads.
"Black Rabbit, those Giants are the Giants from Celtic Mythology, right?"
“Yes！”
"Ashina, do you still remember the records regarding Celtic Mythology in Mq's library?"
"I don't look at those things …"
Ashina rolled her eyes at Eight-cloud Ink.
Eight-cloud Ink chuckled. Then, he said, "In Celtic Mythology, there is a part called the Danu Mythology. It recorded the history of the Giant Tribe's struggle."
"It was recorded that there was a saying among the Giants that 'manipulated the Black Death to control other Giants'."
"Black … Death? Could it be that Lady Yakumo is planning to have Pest come over? "
Although Pest was nominally a member of [No Name] after the battle during the Fire Dragon's Birth Festival, it was clear that this spotted loli only listened to Eight-cloud Ink.
"That's right. That little fire cat said that the enemies would attack again during the Harvest Festival. Although the Giant Tribe would not be the only ones attacking, if all of the Giant Tribe's combat power were to be eliminated, the enemies would suffer a great loss."
"Since we have Pest here, why don't we have her fight?"
Eight-cloud Ink snapped his fingers.
A crack appeared in front of him.
⑧
"So this is the reason why Master wanted me to come over?"
Pest tugged uneasily at the hem of her maid dress, which had complicated frills, and a bashful look appeared on her face.
The skirt was too short, and the pair of knee-high socks on her fair and tender legs made Eight-cloud Ink and the others' faces bleed.
"In that case, why did you have us follow you?" Standing beside Pest, Leticia and Bai Xueji asked.
Together with Pest, they were taking care of the newly developed agricultural area in [No Name]'s base. However, Eight-cloud Ink suddenly appeared before them and brought the three maids to Underwood's underground city.
The three maids were now members of the [No Name] maid team. However, it seemed that the relationship between Bai Xueji and Pest was very bad.
The two of them always had a small quarrel every two days and a big quarrel every three days.
Fortunately, there were people at the top to suppress them, so they didn't cause too much trouble.
"Well, since Pest is here, why don't you all come and have some fun?"
Eight-cloud Ink said to the three maids.
"Since I want everyone to have fun during the harvest festival, you all can come as well."
The three maids glanced at one another. Then, they bowed to Eight-cloud Ink.
"Thank you, Master."
⑧
Black Rabbit was very happy with the arrival of the three maids.
Toward the three maids who had been doing their best (?) Pest, Bai Xueji, and Leticia, who were serving as maids, especially Leticia, looked at Black Rabbit with gratitude.
Yue Tu, who was willing to sacrifice everything for others, had a very good relationship with the three maids. After Pest and the others arrived, she happily brought them out to have fun.
The crowd split into several groups. Eight-cloud Ink, Ashina, and Aistel began to wander around.
Even though they had experienced the attack of the Giant Tribe, the crowd's enthusiasm was still very high.
While Eight-cloud Ink and the others were strolling through a street filled with small stalls, the emergency bell rang...
A Tree Spirit girl standing at the top of the water tree screamed at the top of her lungs, "Oh no! The Giants are leading an astonishing army that has never been seen before … … They have begun to attack the [Underwood]!!!!! "
○
In an instant, the members of [One Corner] and [Five Claw] were defeated.
Standing on the street full of panicked people, Eight-cloud Ink saw Gryphon Gurley, Yao's friend, flying above.
"Geli!"
Glie flapped his wings and landed in front of Eight-cloud Ink, looking a little tired.
The feathers on the originally beautiful wings were now in a mess. It was obvious that it had just experienced a great battle.
"So it's my friend's friend, Lord Yakumo."
"What happened?"
"Those guys are attacking us again. This time, there's a monster in their main force. It's completely different from before. If this continues, we'll all be wiped out! Lord Yakumo, can I trouble you to head to the Eastern District and ask for help from Lord White Yaksha? "
Just as Gurley was still shouting excitedly, the sound of plucking the strings sounded.
It was the sound that was suppressed by Eight-cloud Ink's FA instrument.
The sound of plucking the strings sounded one after another. Every time, the companions at the front line fell down one by one.
Even the people who were far away from the source of the sound almost lost consciousness.
"It's that guy …! The guard in charge of surveillance was distracted by the sound of the zither. That's why the other party could succeed in two surprise attacks! Although there's a masked knight helping to support the front line, I don't know how long it can last …! "
"A masked knight?"
Eight-cloud Ink and Ashina remembered the masked woman who defeated several Giants in an instant.
"You mean that Dark Tong Dawei … … Cough, the guy with the black mask?"
"Yes!" Gurley nodded.
"… … A masked knight? Could it be Faith Reis? "
Jack and Ai Xia, who were carrying jack-o '-lanterns, suddenly ran over. Jack asked aloud.
Ai Xia, who was beside him, immediately exclaimed, "Ah, ah!? If it's her, it's not good. If something happens to that guy, the [Halloween Queen] won't sit by and do nothing! Let's go help her immediately! "
"Mr. Yakumo, we'll go help her first!"
Jack lit a fire on the sackcloth and summoned a huge hellfire. Ai Xia jumped onto the avatar and ran to the front line together.
Eight-cloud Ink asked Gurley again, "Isn't that masked guy very strong? She's no match for him? "
"The correct way to put it is that it's hard for her to fight. The closer the sound is, the stronger the effect is. Previously, Sarah's strength seemed to have been restricted by the sound. Based on the above, that thing must be a gift of divinity. "
"Divinity … … Then, where are the masked man and the harp-playing giant now?"
"Previously, both sides joined the battle together, but the harp-playing guy has disappeared. The masked knight is enduring the sound while dealing with the battle … … Also, the harp-playing owner isn't a Giant. "
"Hmm?"
"The other party's height is about the same as yours. He's a human who uses a robe to cover his face. According to the Giants' obedience to his orders, perhaps that guy is the commander. "
During this time, the Giants' attacks were constantly attacking the Alliance's defense line.
In the distance, the roars of the Giants and the screams of the Phantom Beasts intertwined.
"Ink! Let's go help! "
Eight-cloud Ink nodded. In this situation, he obviously couldn't do nothing.
"Okay, this time we must catch that harp-playing guy!"
