Desire

LaQuiz looks up at the sky, shaking his flawed body. A place so high, you can't even see it with your normal naked eye. But LaQuiz saw it clearly.

“This... madness. ”

LaQuiz grunts and spits. A strange creature. There was a creature who thought he would never be able to come here. Akin strides back, his face distorted. It was ridiculous. He can never come here. Having been unconsciously blessed, Nornia is hard to identify and not an easy place to enter, as long as it is known.

‘Maybe Devello. How did he...? ’

How the hell did a trained horseman get in here? Lachish is confused and confused, and unable to continue his normal thinking. It's been a while, but the overwhelming defeat by Azin has left Laquis deeply traumatized. And it hasn't healed yet. For LaQuiz, who had a strong sense of pride, who was beaten badly and couldn't even resist properly, was a terrible experience for him for once in his life.

“You're a bride.”

Rivera comes to Laquis and mutters. She doesn't smile. It was always Rivera, who had a lot of unexpected laughs, but I couldn't smile as much as now. She looks up at the sky with her narrow eyes.

“Someone who can't come in has entered the ground. The Battlerealm of Nornia. The king and the leaders of each tribe said it was impossible to interfere in the Battlerealm. Only a bride could interfere in the fighting pits.” The bride brought in that maniac? ”“ Maybe for a reason? ”

Libera had a hard time guessing why. Since the end of the civil war, the bride has not intervened in the affairs of Nornia. The custody of a forcibly terminated civil war remained the same, promoting conflict between the king and the nobles of other races. The existence of the bride who has been blessed by Huanglong is only preventing conflict on the surface.

Led by Rivera and LaQuiz, the revolutionaries have made Nornia their home. This land was the safest place in the First where the Demon King or the Horsemen could never touch it. There was difficulty in getting in and out, but Nornia was that safe. Mastering horticulture, sand dungeon, and dark magic does not mean you can never enter Nornia. The opposition of the Nornian conflict has intermittent forces that are impossible to ‘control’. As for Madhu, the Grand Concourse must reject him if he possesses such profound power.

“Maybe the bride doesn't like us. ”

A bride trapped in an ancient forest. I heard you don't go out there. Nevertheless, I did not think that the bride was blind and deaf. But I can't believe you used such extreme measures.

“... did you notice? ”

“Of course you are. I didn't think they'd bring him in. ”

I was looking at the liver.

That's all I had to say. A revolution in Nornia. Rivera and Laquis stare at the liver against the king and the nobles. Which side do you want me on? Which side should I attach to for sure, or for pleasure? It may have been LaQuiz, but Rivera had it first. Even though the presence of the bride was annoying, if you look at the power that Laquis holds, the bride and the eunuch pose no great threat.

‘Even if it bothers me. What the hell were you thinking, bringing him here? ’

Rivera couldn't understand the bride. Having to maintain the alliance, Rivera had no intention of killing the bride. If the Grim Reaper intervenes, I will kill the Grim Reaper, but the bride who rules the Grand Chamber must not be killed.

But not him. He was the most violent owner in the world with the exception of the Demon King, and could kill even a bride, regardless of whether she was in the fighting pits or not. That made no sense to Libera. The Revolutionary Army has no intention of conquering this country. We just wanted to make sure the Node was secure and use this land as a platform to truly save the world from the Demon King.

Rather, the bride must support the revolutionary army. Unnecessary civil war, conflict. It will be wiped out by the Revolutionary Army, and Nornia will be at peace.

I had to.

That's what makes it fun.

Rivera enjoyed playing 'warrior’.

“Just watching. ”

Azin mutters as he looks down. Flying next to him, he was baffled by his bold, thoughtless, reckless moves. I flew here without hesitation after hearing about the Revolutionary Encampment. And I didn't even tell them, but I'm standing where I can see the Revolutionary Army leaders and executives.

“... really. You don't talk, you don't listen, you don't keep track. Are you going to beat them up and kick them out?” “Isn't that what the bride wanted in the first place?” “That's... but...” “I told you. It's not a bother. I do what the bride asks. That's it. Don't try to use me for anything more than that. ”

I don't know about the bride, but I can roughly understand her intentions. Kings and nobles connected to the Revolutionary Army. If you use the Revolutionary Army well, it is also possible to draw out and clean conflict forces who have complaints with the bride. If Ajin goes, the bride and the eunuch don't have to get their hands dirty.

“If you're not going to help, just watch. ”

Azin said so and slowly went down. Devello followed behind Ajin without a word. Rivera and Laquis watch as Azin approaches without moving. Frankly, LaQuiz thought he wanted to run. Every time the aura of Ajin approached, my heart thumped and I was sweating cold. But he didn't run away. It was not because LaQuiz overcame his fears, but simply because he didn't want to show his shame in front of Rivera.

“I didn't expect to see you in a place like this. ”

Rivera takes a short breath and talks to Azin. Azin gives Rivera a glance and sees the Revolutionary officers around her. Rivera isn't doing too well, but LaQuiz and the other officers are noticeably nervous. Particularly the face of white, dull Laquis was so sad.

‘There's nothing to see except LaQuiz. ’

Ranking and level have already become meaningless in this game. One who can't deal with the will. As long as this world is a game and under the system it is absolute.

‘Rivera said she could handle the agenda. I've never shown it to you... but I might be able to see it this time. ’

He clenched his fist without saying a word. With that move, Laquiz is nervous and pulls up the chakra. Ajin glances at LaQuiz. As Azin's gaze settles on him, he shivers his flawed shoulders.

“Don't kill them both. ”

Azin mutters. Laquis doesn't understand what he's saying. It was Devello who understood. She nods and heads forward.

"They look alike."

As you head for LaQuiz, Devello looks carefully at Rivera's face. A bride in the ancient forest. Her face resembles Rivera's. The overall atmosphere and hair style were different, but the eyewear seemed to be identical enough to be twins.

‘She looked just like me. ’

I think about Camilla. The face I've been seeing in the wagon. It can't be a coincidence. Devello questioned the depths of his heart. But now is not the time to think about it. Devello draws his main sword from his waist.

“... What the hell. ”

Laquis frowns at Devello. Of course, I thought that pain would come. But Devello is the one who stands up.

“Are you making fun of me? ”

LaQuiz asked with a grumpy feeling. So brave, Azin ridicules and looks at Laquis.

“I don't have to fight you anymore. ”

“Why...? ”

“Because I'm stronger than you. ”

It was an irrefutable word, but my insides were twisted. As LaQuiz tries to say something, an invisible blast spreads to him. Laquis' superpowers have already been triggered before recognizing and responding to him. The whole room distorted, protecting LaQuiz.

There was blood everywhere. It wasn't LaQuiz's blood. All but Rivera, standing behind him, are slashed to death. I wasn't even trying to protect him, but the fire was quick. As the space used as a shield was cut down, everything in place became dust and scattered.

“Don't you want to have a conversation?” “We've been talking a lot. ”

Azin says that and approaches Libera. Rivera sighs as she watches the coming azin.

“I don't see Vasrodel. ”

“Dead.”

Rivera replies.

“He was a good man. I was very close. And then he died in that desert war. It's not just Mr. Basrodel. All the other dragons died.” “Did the Mages kill you? ”

“Yes.”

“You're lying.”

Azin chuckles. As far as Azin is concerned, Rivera has two superpowers. Energy drains and rebounds. Among them, the energy drain was a superpower that was well trained. The total amount of air in the air went up into nothingness and was not used. And rebound. Superpowers that can't be used for direct attacks. The user's psychic ability to withstand incoming attacks and return damage to the target.

“Chakra has grown tremendously. It's nothing compared to what I saw in the desert.” Aha. ”

Rivera smiles at Azin's words.

“I wish I could have fooled you. ”

I don't think so. We can't hide it here anymore. It's hard to back out of here. He was not willing to put an end to Azin's pursuit, even if he did flee. At that time, Rivera was able to escape from Lebacore because Azin didn't go after her. Rivera frees Chakra. Compared to what you've been conscious of so far, the huge chakra wraps around Rivera's body.

"Five dragons... more." Looks like you haven't been playing around. ’

Low levels should not be ignored. Rivera may be tougher in some ways than LaQuiz if she's dealing with the will. Unlike LaQuiz, however, Rivera has not reached Mokhsha's foothills. That is, there is a limit to the total amount of chakra.

‘Not necessarily. ’

The racquet radiates chakra like crazy. For Lachish with an infinite amount of chakra, chakra consumption is not a big problem. No, it's not just a gust. LaQuiz is delivering his chakra to Rivera ‘deliberately’. And Rivera absorbs the chakra that Laquis delivers through the energy drain.

“I wonder why they stick together. ”

“It helps each other. ”

Rivera smiles and says. It's a confident laugh. Ajin was unable to judge the authenticity of her smile. Azin looks around. sandy beaches right next to the sea. It's pretty far from the city and town. Azin was not the type to care about the damage around him, but he did not want to do unnecessary human life damage to become an adult. So I felt fortunate.

For starters, Azin raises his hand. The Black Darkness rises up and strikes Libera with the gesture of Azin's hand. Libera gazes at the approaching darkness without moving. Paoang! The darkness spreads, and the remnant seeps into Rivera's body as it is. An energy drain. I've never seen such a perfect energy drain before.

‘I think I know. Bitch... she's a lot higher on the energy drain and the rebound than LaQuiz. ’

I was able to become a Mokhsha and expand my infinite superpowers, but it's not the same story as just spreading them out. Rivera excelled at both of those superpowers.

“I've had a hard time hiding it.” “I'm not hiding anything. I just didn't use it. ”

Rivera replies.

“I don't want to fight you. I will leave Nornia and never come here again, if you wish. What do you think?”

Pop question. The goal was to rid the land of Rivera in the first place. But Ajin shakes his head across.

“You don't have to. ”

Azin reaches out to Rivera, clamoring.

“I can force you out.” “... Ah... really. I've felt it for a long time. ”

Rivera sighs deeply and shakes her head.

“You're a fucking asshole. ”

Rivera sighs with a bloody smile.
