Reina furrowed her brows, her face full of anxiety. She stared at the ground, deep in thought, which was rare of her.
Linchad could almost see smoke coming out of her head and knew that it was useless to continue waiting. He sighed softly and said, "Then I'll tell you my opinion first.
"Okay!"
Reina immediately replied with a smile. So this fellow had been waiting for her hint.
Linchad glanced at Lilith and the others. The three people who had suddenly fainted showed no signs of waking up. They lay quietly on the ground, their rhythmic breathing proving that they were still alive and well.
"This is what I think. First of all, when they fainted, there was nothing around them, nor was there anything strange. First of all, we can rule out sneak attacks and useless traps. Therefore, I'm guessing that this should be some kind of magic. And this magic, I think, is a kind of discipline magic that only exists in this space," Linchad suddenly said.
"Discipline magic?"
Reina blinked her large eyes, completely unable to understand what he was talking about.
"Discipline magic, a type of magic that requires certain conditions and does not differentiate between friend and foe." Linchad suddenly paused, thinking that if he explained the principle directly, this silly girl would not understand, so he pointed to the side.
"For example, if this is a road, if you wear red clothes and walk past it, it will suddenly turn into a quagmire and then sink into it. But if you wear clothes of other colors, nothing will happen. It will not turn into a quagmire, nor will it trigger any magic. This kind of magic that requires certain conditions is called discipline magic. "
Linchad explained.
"Oh! I see. Oh, um … Ah! I think, I think I know! "
Reina had a look of sudden realization. Linchad frowned, feeling that this girl might not have understood at all.
But he could not care less. The most important thing now was for her to learn how to deal with such sudden situations and to analyze the enemy's methods.
"Therefore, I think that discipline magic has been cast here and combined with this spatial domain, which means that this has become an environmental magic." Linchad coughed dryly as he spoke, interrupting Reina's question about environmental magic.
"Only environmental magic can achieve such a stealthy effect. That's why it's important to find out what triggered the magic. I don't have any defensive magic items on me. From any external appearance, there's nothing special about me. If there's one thing I'm different from others, it's that I don't have magic. "
After saying that, Reina froze for a moment.
"No magic?! Brother Lynchad, you don't have magic power? Wouldn't that mean he wouldn't be able to use magic? No, but I saw you change your sword a little. " Reina was confused. Compared to finding out why Lilith and the others were unconscious, she was more curious as to why Rinchad had no magic power.
Magic power accompanied everyone. Even the weakest creatures would have magic power in their bodies, including ants. Needless to say, humans naturally had magic power.
"This isn't magic. No, perhaps from the definition of magic, this can be considered a type of magic." With that said, Rinchad opened his palm and an ordinary-looking sword appeared in his hand. It floated and spun.
"This is the power of the sword. I'm just the sword wielder." Rinchad clenched his hand, and the sword disappeared in front of Reina's eyes.
"This is just my speculation. Perhaps this commandment magic has something to do with the level of magic power. It only affects people who have a lot of magic power in their bodies. The stronger the magic power, the stronger the effect. For example, Dodoro, as the descendant of a human and an elf, had a higher level of magic power than Lilith. Then came Lilith, then Greer, who was a warrior. They all fainted in this order, "Rinchad explained.
Of course, if he had magic power, this wouldn't be a puzzle at all. But now, he had more or less figured out the reason. He was just trying to guide the silly girl.
"But, but I have magic power too. Why am I not affected?" Reina pondered.
"Now is the time to think about the differences between you and the others. First of all, in terms of magic power, you're the one with the highest level of magic power among us."
Hearing this, Reina raised her eyebrows in excitement.
"Really?! I'm that good?! "
"It's based on the amount of magic power you have. But you don't know how to use it, so you're no match for them in a real battle. In other words, you can't use your magic power at all. Most of your magic power is wasted," Rinchad said bluntly.
Reina sighed and lowered her head.
"Of course. Your potential is much higher than theirs. As long as you practice hard, I'm sure you'll catch up to them soon." Rinchad looked at Reina. Perhaps what she needed the most right now wasn't practice, but confidence.
"Yes! By the way, Brother Rinchad, I think I know why I didn't faint. "
Reina suddenly said.
"Oh?! Tell me about it. "
"Maybe it's because the Elven King gave me something called the Elven King's Blessing. When I was with you, nothing bit me, but big sister Dodoro was bitten very badly. Also, when I fell into the pit, those terrifying insects didn't dare to approach me. I think that's the reason."
Reina said.
Lynchad rubbed his chin. He didn't expect to hear such a normal answer from her. Lynchad, who was prepared to hear a strange answer, was surprised.
The Elf King's blessing?
That was possible. Rinchad originally thought that it was the original body's magic power or the trident that blocked the attacks here. But now, it seemed that it was the Elf King's power.
Did the Elf King know about the situation here? Or perhaps she was the one who set up the rules here? Also, why did the Elf King put his hope in an unreliable little human girl? The elves clearly hated humans.
Rinchad frowned. Perhaps it was all a trap. Perhaps this was a place where the elves sacrificed themselves. But he didn't know that he couldn't control everything anymore. He looked at Reina with a complicated expression.
Perhaps the original body didn't want to control her life anymore, so she did that.
Suddenly, Rinchad put his hand on Reina's shoulder and said, "Listen, I'll only say this once."
"Okay." Reina didn't know what happened, but she felt that it was very serious.
"Don't let anyone control your life. You only have one life. Do whatever you want to do."
"Okay."
Reina was confused, but she still nodded energetically.
"Then what should we do now?" She was worried. What if Lilith and the others were still asleep?
"If what caused them to faint is what we think, the rules here will be in effect. That means that Lilith and the others will remain unconscious."
"No way? They won't wake up again? "Reina was shocked.
"Don't worry. Not here. They'll return to normal after leaving." Rinchad looked at the three lying on the ground. If only the three of them came in, they would probably sleep until they died. In the current situation, there was no way to remove the rules here unless the original body came or they found the source.
Then he looked at Reina and said, "I'm going to stay here and look after them. It's probably a sea of fire outside. The earliest we can leave is tomorrow. What do you plan to do?"
Hearing this, Reina was stunned. For a moment, she almost blurted out, "I'm going to stay here too." After spending a few days together, she had started to rely on Lilith and Rinchad. In retrospect, their mission was to bring her into the interior of the Dark Forest.
Now that their mission had been completed, the rest was up to her.
"I-I want to find that well first."
Reina said.
"Then you should understand that we won't be able to accompany you for the rest of the journey. It's just you and Mr. Ball, of course." Rinchard took a deep breath and continued, "Even so, are you still going to continue?"
"Yes, this is what I promised someone," she replied.
"Okay then, don't be careless."
Rinchad said.
Linna nodded, then turned around to face Lilith and the others who were sleeping soundly.
"Thank you for taking care of me."
She bowed to the three. Then she held the wooden staff with both hands and carried a small green backpack on her back like Dodoro's. "Then I'll be going."
Rinchad nodded and didn't say anything. He just watched Reina's back until she disappeared into the countless buildings.
Suddenly, he turned around and looked at a bush. He seemed to have sensed something. He walked over to the bush and found a strange footprint.
It didn't look like it was left by a human. Instead, it looked like the footprint of a cat. It was very new, as if someone had just walked through it.
… …
Half an hour later, Reina suddenly stopped in her tracks. Her eyes widened as she shouted, "Wait!"
"What's wrong, princess?"
Mr. Ball looked up at her. It could finally speak, but it also meant that Rinchad and the others were far away from it.
"No! I've never called your name in front of him before. How did he know your name, Mr. Ball? "
Reina looked at Mr. Ball with a surprised expression.
Mr. Ball didn't say anything. It couldn't say anything. It was very conflicted.
Who was that man named Rinchad? Why did he look exactly like its creator? However, Mr. Ball knew that Rinchad wasn't its creator because he didn't have its contract.
"Forget it. I'll have to ask him when we get back. He must be hiding something from me!"
Reina said.
She and Mr. Ball had arrived at the white building. It was occupied by plants. The white walls were covered with plants, and the round roof was full of morning glory.
The room was pitch black. Lena pushed open the ancient door. Suddenly, with a bang, the rotten wooden door fell to the ground and turned into dust.
"Ahem!"
Reina waved her hand and entered the dark room.
She didn't know how long it had been since someone came here. The dust on the ground was very thick, but strangely, there were no cobwebs in the room, only dust. There weren't even any traces of animal activity.
Her eyes gradually became familiar with the darkness. A few rays of light shone in from the broken window. Reina saw tables and chairs in the room. The paint on the walls had all peeled off. This was an ordinary room. It was probably the home of an elf a long time ago. And this elf liked to collect shields. Reina saw many rusty shields on the ground against the wall. She observed for a long time before confirming that these iron blocks were shields.
Because there was a moldy smell in the air, Reina didn't stay long before leaving the room. Walking on the stone road, she seemed to feel the changes in history. She imagined the scene of many elves living here. Walking across the stone bridge and looking at the flowing stream below, Reina couldn't help but sigh. This was indeed a very good place. But why did the elves leave here?
She couldn't understand. She took out the dark red heart of the god tree and fell into deep thought.
However, at this moment, a small white ball of light floated in front of Reina.
… …
The red-haired Lilith opened her eyes and felt a gust of hot air. She found herself in Rinchard's arms.
She didn't know if it was because of the fire or because it was too hot, but her face was now bright red.
"What happened?"
She gently grabbed Rinchad's hand and realized that they were flying across a sea of fire.
"You fainted because of the elves' magic," Rinchad said.
"How long?"
"Don't worry. Less than half a day."
Rinchard replied, glancing behind him.
I'm sorry, Reina. I can't stay here any longer.
She had sensed many things, but for some reason, she didn't ask about them. She used to be a silly girl, but now she was a little shrewd. Rinchad even felt that he was in danger of being exposed.
This made him feel that he was somewhat laughable. A demon king who had lived for hundreds of years was actually afraid of a little girl who was only ten years old.
Rinchad held Lilith in his arms and flew on his sword. Greer and Dodoro were tied to two giant swords. They quickly flew out of the burning forest and returned to the outer layer of the Forest of Darkness.
"Where's Reina?!"
At this moment, Lilith suddenly became nervous. She didn't see Reina's figure.
"She's still inside."
Rinchad said.
"Huh? You left her there? Is it safe? "
"I don't know. But that's her decision. We can't help her."
Rinchad said.
"No, Dodoro and I can't help her. But you should be able to help her." Lilith looked at him. If he could get her out, he must have a way to help Reina.
But he didn't. Instead, he chose to save them.
Lilith was touched. But after that, she was worried about Reina. She didn't know why, but she wanted to take care of her. Maybe it was because she was too young and cute.
"Then what should we do? Why don't we wait outside? You go and help her yourself. "
"You still don't understand what I mean. I won't help her anymore."
Rinchad suddenly said.
Lilith was a little surprised. But she quickly calmed down.
"Okay. Are we going back now?"
"No. We have to deal with Oro before we go back."
