The group stepped forward, grinning.

"Was it you trying to scare us?" one of them asked.

Aya tugged on Oasis again. "Are they bad guys?" she asked.

"Yeah, they are," Oasis replied, sensing their killing intent.

"Just stay behind me, and you will be fine."

!!!

"She will be fine, huh?" one of the men mocked, and the rest of them laughed.

"Playing hero, are we? You court death, little brat," another man raised his voice.

"Leave him to me," one of the men said, jumping toward Oasis with a menacing g

  • Chapter 696: The Silent Reconnaissance.

    Within dozens of minutes, Vesta had already soared across the skies at tremendous speed and climbed the massive mountain with astonishing ease.The journey that Hayate had earlier insisted would be safer through the western side route had become meaningless before Vesta’s sheer physical capabilities.At first, Hayate had suggested the western gate because he had genuinely been worried about Vesta’s condition after witnessing him cough blood earlier on the plains. The western route possessed a transportation formation that could elavate travelers directly to the upper sections of Nodoka Village without needing to physically ascend the enormous mountain.But Vesta had ignored all of that completely.And now, after witnessing the sacred beast effortlessly carry all of them through the skies and scale the mountain as though it were nothing more than a small hill, Hayate could only inwardly sigh at his own concerns.At this point, the group had already crossed the bridge that connected the

    Three… Two… One…Then it happened.The Hayate who had been standing there in a complete daze suddenly shifted his gaze seamlessly toward Delvan, as though nothing strange had happened at all. The transition was so smooth, so perfectly natural, that it was impossible to notice where illusion ended and reality began.A warm smile spread across Hayate’s face as the breeze swept through the endless plains around them, causing his loose tunic and dark hair to flutter gently.“And you, little brother… who might you be? Don’t be shy,” Hayate said to Delvan with an inviting grin.At the same time, within his thoughts, curiosity surged.“Mmh… this young brother looks exactly the same age as Vesta. Even their height and body structure are nearly identical. Is it possible that he is also as strong as Vesta?”The thought alone made Hayate inwardly sigh.Before him, Delvan stood with his small frame half-hidden by the tall swaying grass that reached close to his waist. His youthful eyes sparkled w

  • Chapter 694: The Perfect Synchronization(2).

    To anyone observing from afar, Hayate looked like a lone individual who had completely detached himself from the affairs of the world. Like someone frozen between reality and thought. Like a man spending his final moments gazing upon nature itself. Yet from Hayate’s own perspective, something entirely different was happening. In his mind, he was currently having a warm and engaging conversation with Vesta as they casually walked through the plains together. The illusion was so flawless that not even the smallest inconsistency existed within his senses. The sound of the wind, the feeling of movement, the positioning of the sunlight—everything felt completely real to him. Then suddenly— Vesta and the other three appeared within the plains. And the moment Venak, Daku, and Delvan arrived in Hespera— All three of them were immediately stunned by the overwhelming vastness of the plains before them. The mana here was incomparably denser than Elysiome. It flowed through the atmosph

  • Chapter 693: The Perfect Synchronization(1).

    For a moment, all of them were stunned by what had just happened with the barrier.The atmosphere around the runic belt turned strangely silent, as if even the air itself had paused in confusion. The glowing runes embedded within the invisible boundary flickered faintly like streams of living silver light, humming with an power that neither welcomed nor rejected lightly.Yet what had just occurred was undeniable. Venak, Daku, and Delvan had been completely rejected.Even Vesta himself stood still for a brief moment as he perceived the scene unfolding before him. His golden eyes narrowed slightly, and the playful look that usually lingered on his face vanished almost instantly.His expression alone revealed that he already understood the gravity of what had happened.His companions had not simply failed to cross.They had been denied access.At that moment, memories rapidly reeled through Vesta’s mind. He repeatedly replayed the exact moment when he and Shiye had crossed into Hespera,

  • Chapter 692: The Legend of the Hidden Dragon.

    After dozens of minutes, the meeting of the Nodoka elders and their Patriarch was still underway deep beneath the mountain within the Sanctum of the Deep Roots.The discussions regarding trade, military patrols, demonic activities, and the unstable political state of the surrounding territories continued heavily beneath the flickering torchlight of the basalt chamber.Voices rose and fell like distant thunder beneath the mountain while ancient formations etched into the walls glimmered faintly with spiritual resonance.Meanwhile—Outside, far toward the eastern side of the Nodoka Village mountain and already several kilometers away from the towering peak upon which the village rested, Vesta soared through the skies.The cyan eagle moved like a streak of cyan energy cutting through the vast heavens above the Yasuraka Plains. His massive wings spread wide, slicing through the morning currents effortlessly while the thick plains below swayed violently beneath the pressure of his flight.

    Kaito’s face flushed dark, his hand gripping the edge of his seat until the wood groaned under the pressure."You take responsibility? That is a grand word for someone who spends his days on the high peak, isolated from the daily bloodletting of our borders! We are not dealing with a simple hunting party, Soma. What if they are scouts for the Thirsty Bramble Fold? What if they are the vanguard of the demonic cultivators from the low plains? or just our enemies.""I said what I said, and I am not saying anymore on the matter," Soma replied, his voice flat and absolute. He leaned forward, his gaze locking with Kaito's."If you have a problem with my judgment, if you feel your position as an elder gives you the right to dictate who I bring into my family’s domain, we can resolve it the old way. Step into the arena, Kaito. Let us test who has the greater right to speak on the defense of this mountain."The challenge hung in the air, heavy and sharp. The "old way" was not a debate of words
