“…”
(⊙_⊙)
There is no doubt that Lienia Avenue is really spacious and flat.
But, it is also very desolate...
Walking on this road, nothing else could be seen except weeds, scars and the desolation of the "old vines, old trees, and crows".
There are no pedestrians, no business trips, no villages, and no small bridges and flowing waters. There are only two pale dead bones that occasionally reveal the grass, wandering dead men, rusty weapons and armor, and the nameless beasts aimlessly foraging on the wasteland.
“…”
(′???`)
"It's really not a single person..."
(°〼°〃),
"Do you still keep moving forward?"
("?ヘ?)”
After looking around, Anne couldn't help but hesitate if she should continue moving forward if she should continue.
This situation is known without much guessing. Due to the wars that had been broken for many years, the closure of the Magic Academy of Reala Lukalia, the deep sleep of the Queen of the Cagliar royal family, and the destruction of the bridge passage to Nimgefu, the Lienian region, including the supposedly prosperous Lienian Avenue, has all become the desolate scene in front of you.
Even though the full moon queen Lenara has awakened now, even though the Real Lukariya Magic Academy is now preparing to lift the seal, and even if the Caglia royal family is planning to rectify the Lienia area, it is definitely not easy for them to have no one and no money to rectify the area and restore order in a short period of time.
Anyway, Anne had never seen any normal people on the road along the way. As for the Cagliari Royal Knights and soldiers who had been sent to patrol and clean up before, she didn't even see any shadows.
“…”
(⊙﹏⊙)
"never mind!"
ε=(′ο｀*))) Alas
"It seems there is a town ahead, so let's go there and take a look..."
～o(▽｀ o)=3 =3
Although the journey was not very pleasant, Anne was not very discouraged. She just sat on the shoulder of the bear Tibers and continued to sway forward.
Anyway, she is not the one who is rushing, and she doesn't need to be distracted from "driving". Her bear has the fully automatic navigation function, so she just needs to say the destination, and she doesn't have to worry about hard work or anything.
(…)
(￢?￢.)
(Tibers ignored it, but continued to stagger forward, heading towards the so-called "town" mentioned by its worries little master.)
...
Soon, Anne discovered that it was indeed not a town, but a ruin.
However, unlike the ordinary messy ruins, the ruins seem to have been purified, and there are not many messy monsters or dead people. Instead, there are some signs of inhabited activities?
“Huh?”
Σ(°△°)︴
“Those are…”
(°〼°〃)
So, following certain traces and some path that seemed to be someone walking out, Anne soon saw two hunched and thin guys from afar, trembling and sneaking towards a ruined temple outside the ruins.
"It looks mysterious, what do you want to do?"
?˙?˙)
Seeing this, Anne was of course a little curious, so she let Tebers follow him far away.
Not long after, she saw that in front of the broken eaves and walls in the distance, a young lady with eyes covered with cloth scarves was standing there to receive the worship of several hunched and thin guys gathered there, while both of them were still muttering something.
“??”
(?ˊ)????
"Isn't that Miss Haida?"
(?▽?)
"But, how could she be here?"
(???.????)
Anne expressed some doubts about this.
She knew that a few days before her Queen Anne's house, the other party left Stoneville City. According to the Fire Eye Knights who had received the reward, the other party was heading east, but why is the other party now here to the north of Stoneville?
“!!”
!(;?o?)o
"not good!!"
o(*'　〼')o
Suddenly, when Annie saw one of the guys who were hunched and thin in shape, and at a glance he knew he was sick, and his arms were as thin as a child. He reached out, picked out an eyeball from his face and put it tremblingly in the hand of the young lady Haida. Then, the young lady Haida was completely unaware of it, and she really planned to put it in her mouth after the one-eyed patient and his companions were keen and teleported directly.
"stop!"
?(ψ｀╭╮′)o
With a stern face, Annie shouted loudly, and almost stopped Hayda, who was about to put the disgusting eyeballs in her mouth.
"who?"
"Who are you?"
"Where did you come from? Get out of here!"
"Go away!"
"Hurry up! Drive her away!"
In amazement, they all turned their heads and found that the person was a little girl. The thin and rotten sick people stood up one after another, grabbed wooden sticks and stones, and prepared to yell, intending to drive Anne forward so that she would not disturb their worship and ceremony.
"snort!!"
???(??╭╮???)
Unfortunately, Annie just waved her hand and instantly froze those few noisy guys like a dead man into ice sculptures, making them shut their mouths all at once.
“??”
"Who is there?"
After hearing the mixed voices calmed down, Haida couldn't help but ask in surprise.
"I seem to hear the sound..."
"Is it Anne?"
"Yes or no?"
Then, Haida asked carefully.
Although she was blind, she was very sensitive to the sound and suddenly she could hear the sound of the sound just now being made by Anne.
So, Hada, who recognized the person who was probably the kind little girl who was entertaining her at Stoneville a few days ago and gave her the kind of grapes to her food world, did not rush to send the "grape" in her hand to her mouth, but turned her head and asked again to the place where Annie had just spoken.
“…”
(?)
Annie did not answer, but walked forward and came to the young lady Haida. She frowned and looked at the thing she was holding in her hand, and then asked hesitantly:
"Miss Haida, what you have in your hands..."
(ー`′ー)
Although I had guessed some of the whole story, and at the same time I began to feel nausea and some unknown fire, Annie was still not in a hurry to have an attack, but wanted to confirm it first.
"ah!"
"It's really Annie!"
After turning his head and clearly hearing the crisp and nice childish voice that belonged to Anne, Haida was sure that the person who came was indeed the little girl king she met in Stoneville City.
"This is the 'Sumberile Grape'!"
"Do you want to try it?"
"Give!"
"Although it's important to me, I can give it to you if it's you."
As he said that, Haida smiled very rarely.
At the same time, she took the yellow and rotten eyeball of the patient in her hand and saw that the skin was about to fall off. The inner layer was thick and soft, similar to a large ripe grape. She carefully handed the thing that had nothing to do with beauty or deliciousness, and even if you just look at it, you could make people sick.
“!!”
⊙﹏⊙‖∣°
Of course, Annie could not accept the other party's kindness, and even took a big step back without hesitation.
"you……"
(°〼°〃)
"I used to eat grapes, that's it?"
(??ˇ?ˇ?ˇ??)
Anne frowned and asked, while her expressions of looking at the sick people who were temporarily frozen by her began to become cold and dangerous.
"yes!"
"What's wrong, is there any problem with this?"
Haida was a little strange. She obviously didn't know the problem, nor did she know why Anne asked this.
“…”
(?)
Anne was silent, and at the same time, her green eyes gradually became colder and more dangerous.
Because, she suddenly felt that some finger seemed to be really unstoppable!
So, she was going to teleport directly to Kalia Castle later and send the hunting finger knife that the doll lady Lani needed. No matter what, she should kill that "finger" as soon as possible?
"What's wrong?"
"Anne?"
"Don't you want to give it a try?"
After a long time, Hayda, who had not heard Anne's reaction, asked again in confusion.
Of course, what made her even more confused was that those who were still making noise just now who gave her grapes were not known why, but now they were not talking, and they didn't know what was going on.
"ah!"
(*ˉ?ˉ*;)
"Okay, OK!"
(lll￢▽￢)
After thinking about it for a while, Annie finally did not refuse, but she did not really step forward and touch it. Instead, a mage stretched out her hand and picked up the 'grape' from the other party's palm in the air. Then, with a swing of her hand, it was thrown away instantly and burned to ashes.
"Hey!"
(′～`●)
"Sister Haida..."
(￢д￢.)
"It's not a solution for you to wander around like this. Otherwise, you'd better go to someone else's castle!"
(?╭╮?)
"How about someone asking someone to help you cure your eyes?"
ヾ(^▽^*)))
As she said that, Anne opened a portal to Stoneville City without waiting for the other party to agree.
She was going to send the other party back first, then go to find Miss Lanni, send the knife that hunted his fingers over, and then kill the fingers directly, and then Miss Haida no longer has to worry about being bewitched.
Similarly, Annie didn't plan to tell the other party about the previous grape, so she thought the food was really normal grapes.
“Eh?”
"But……"
"Annie, I still have something to do..."
"I'm going to a village in the north, where should there be the sauli grapes I need..."
Haida was just about to say something, but Anne pushed it into the portal without any doubt and disappeared in an instant.
"Next..."
(*???*)
After seeing off the little lady Haida, Annie turned her head and looked at the guys who were frozen by her, and untied their frozen state, causing them to fall to the ground one by one in an instant, and could not stand up.
"Tell me!"
??(??￣?￣)
"What the hell is going on? Tell me quickly, otherwise, I will burn you!"
?(ψ｀╭╮′)o
Annie didn't say anything nonsense, grabbed a ball of broken fire from her hands, and began to ask with force.
“??”
"burn?"
“…”
"Hahaha……"
Surprisingly, when they heard Anne want to burn them, those people, those ugly sick people looked at each other, they suddenly burst into laughter.
"Burn!"
"Create us all, it's better to burn the whole world!"
"Come!"
"Burn us!"
The people all crawled towards Annie, as if they were really not afraid of the broken fire in her hand.
“…”
(ー`′ー)
Anne frowned, but didn't really go to burn them, but she didn't retreat, and just confronted those people.
"pain……"
"despair……"
"There is also a curse!"
"The only thing that this world gives us is sin and pain!"
“We’ve had enough!”
At this time, the man who was crawling on the ground began to roar hysterically.
They had just seen and felt it, and knew that the little girl in front of them was indeed a powerful mage, but they were not afraid at all!
In fact, they are not even afraid of death now, so how could they be afraid of a mere death threat?
"All this!"
"It's entirely because of 'error', because of 'supreme will' error!"
"Burn!"
"Burn us, then burn the world, melt everything in the world with flames, and return everything to its origin!"
"We did not come to this world on our own. What's wrong with us? Why do we let us suffer this pain?"
"bring it on!"
"Burn us, burn everything!"
"In the face of flames, no one will be different, no longer born, no more pain and curse, no oppression and powerful..."
"Come on, you burn it!!"
In this way, the few people roared hysterically, crawling towards Anne as if they were desperate, trying to grab her feet and let her really burn them.
“…”
(*?⌒?*)
Anne didn't speak, and took a step back silently, avoiding the hysterical guys.
"All right!"
(*ˉ⌒ˉ*;)
"It seems that I still have to deal with that bad guy's finger first!"
(???3?)
Nodded and shook his head again. Annie finally didn't bother with those people and directly grabbed the fireball in her hand.
She probably understood that whether it was the round table hall, the Nephri, the Hada who had just been sent away, or the crazy sick people in front of her, all these things were pointed at the bad guy called "finger". So, now she was going to send a knife, there was definitely no mistake.
"Let's go!"
(?~?)
"Tibers, let's go find that little sister in the doll!"
(?)
After seeing her little bear coming, Annie ignored the guys who were lying on the ground and still wanted to crawl towards her, but flashed and appeared on the shoulders of Tibers, a bear in the distance.
Now, she is going to send a knife...
As for whether that little knife can kill that "finger", Anni didn't know, but she would stare at it. If that little sister Lanni couldn't get rid of the "finger", she shouldn't mind taking the lead.
(…)
(●￣?￣●)
"Come on!"
"Come and burn us!!"
“Woo woo…”
"Hahaha!"
"burn!"
"Burn! Let the flames burn!!"
"Well……"
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Soon, as Tibers turned and left, the man and the bear gradually disappeared into the sight of the sick people who were still laughing and cursing with some rest, just like the roaring of the dead.
Chapter completed!
