With his protective flames gone and the Boss unconscious, Seo Ae-Ri mercilessly swung her blades. Even against a defenseless opponent, one she knew was a real and living person, she showed no hesitation.
In situations such as th
‘I will exact my vengeance! I will burn their sacred forest just like they burned my home!Even if I must call upon a Demon, I will not stop at nothing to make them suffer.’
“I’m sorry.”Leiu stood at the back as he watched Zazmyr kneel on the ground and pray in front of the bodies of the dead children. There were three of them, two burned beyond recognition and the last had a mass
“W-what is this place?”Zazmyr was rendered speechless as he suddenly found himself in an eerie manor.
*Three days before Alaqon was summoned to Astria.*“What’s happening in Abrigel’s domain? It’s so noisy.”
Once he had seen the horrifying monster, the one he presumed to be the Fire Lord, Leiu immediately attacked. He did not want to give it time to fully manifest or attack first. Alas, even [Dark Dominance] barely did any damage
“Is there anything else you want, my lord?”Even after putting out the fire, Alaqon still wanted to serve the Night Adjudicator, the one he revered so feverishly.Leiu felt a bit stressed and awkward to be put in such a situation. Nevertheless, he did not foolishly sun the Demon Lord, but instead decided to make good use of him.“You said this is not your complete form. Does that mean you can’t stay here permanently?”“That is right, my lord.” While still kneeling, his head bowed, Alaqon explained, “Until all the absorbed energy is expanded, I will remain here. If it doesn’t trouble you, I wish to accompany you and serve you the best I can.”A helpless sigh escaped the Dark Knight’s lips as he looked at Seo Ae-Ri and Fairti.“I don’t think it’s a bad thing. Having a Demon Lord as a lackey could prove beneficial.

Fortunately, however, her ridiculously expensive gear provided thanks to her new companions’ money allowed her to deal damage to the World Boss known as ‘Grieving Woods Lady’. Amongst the three women, Estelle was undoubtedly the best fighter. Not only was she a capable tank, but she also dealt an outrageous amount of damage using Light-aspected magical attacks as well as blinding diagonal sword attacks. Although there were only three of them, they managed to fight the World Boss. However, their aim was not to kill it but to ‘purify’ it using a certain quest item obtained by Elena(Ayeon).<
“May you ever walk in the Light.”The woman prayed one last time before ascending into the heavens, basked in a resplendent white light that shone brighter than the sun.“Basically, we’re still stuck with the same problem. Redressing the balance? How are we to do that?”Hye Nari cursed and angrily stomped the ground. Elena too, was frustrated, she clutched her staff and worriedly looked at the sky.“I know… where do we even begin?”Their meeting with the messenger of the Light Mother provided them with a little bit of information, but it wasn’t enough to formulate an answer or a solution.
