"Oh, no!
Feenier pays her right hand to the side, looking a little hip-pulled.
Following its trajectory, a flame arises and swallows a swarm of approaching demons.
The flame of the Immortal Birds is the flame of purification.
Demons who are evil beings were not allowed to remain in this world, and all things were returned to ashes.
"Yay...!
You can crusade the demons properly, and Finia takes a small, gutsport.
Looking at her daughter like that, Elfin spills a sigh of goodness.
"Oh, Mother, have you been watching? The eagle, get the demon right..."
"Of course, I was watching. I'd like it to be easy for you to see the demons... well, once you got in touch with them, you were running away."
"Ugh... sorry..."
"But this time we were able to defeat it properly. Let's get down to it. Well done."
"Ahhh... ehhh"
Praised by her mother, Finia laughs happily.
However, if you're an elfin, put it right on your tough face.
"But you shouldn't be satisfied to this extent, should you?
"Uh..."
"You, my daughter. Because she is the daughter of the head of the immortal. Soon, you'll have to take over my position. That's why we grow more."
"... Yes"
The usual story.
Elfin treats his daughter, the heir, basically, harshly.
I praise them properly when I praise them, but other than that, I teach them whether they are strong or right.
It's my mother's love that she wants me to be a fine leader.
However, such Elfin's thoughts are sometimes heavy.
Phinea likes to relax alone and doesn't like to lead someone.
I'm not the type to stand in front of someone, or, rather, is it better suited for support? I think.
Though I've told Elfin about it several times...
"What do you do with such weakness? You're the next generation leader, so hold on tighter."
To get such a light sermon.
Every time, my heart gets heavy.
Every time, I feel depressed.
Finia thinks.
I'm not for the head, and in the first place, I don't want to be the head.
It's just that I was born as the eldest daughter.
"Phinea, what's wrong?
"Ah...... yeah"
Elfin called me, and Finia returned to me.
As usual, he was lost in the labyrinth of thought, thinking about the next generation of chiefs.
"... eagle, can you really do it well?
Phinea snuck out a sigh so her mother wouldn't notice.
"Finia, I'll go first. You'll never be forgiven for losing to humans."
"Yes, sir"
The two arrived on the sixth floor.
At that pace, it could be considered a bad achievement.
Normal people can't keep up with them.
But the other person is a human being recognized by Sigre.
If I'm alarmed, what will happen?
"but don't hang in there."
Phinea was in the mood to try her best.
Minutes of unworthy anticipation is nothing but pressure...
Simply, as a child, I have a desire to live up to my mother's expectations.
……
"Mother?"
Second, I noticed something was wrong with my mother.
He has a difficult face.
Could it have done something wrong?
I don't have any particular idea, but there's been a lot of unintentional softening.
There's nothing like Elfin raving his voice and getting angry or raising his hand.
I'm just pale and angry.
But that's scary for Finia.
He seems to be frightened, and then he's going to be abandoned...
I'm really freaking out.
"Please... did you?
"... does Finia grasp the demons that live in this dungeon?
"Huh? Ugh, yeah... for once"
This weak girl actually has the stunt of having a hell of a memory.
I almost never forget what I saw once.
No matter how time goes by, no matter how trivial, I can immediately remember.
"The demon you defeated now...... was it something that lives in this dungeon?
"That's... ah"
Speaking of which, it was a demon I had never seen.
Realizing that, Finia looked strange.
"This dungeon had its, uh, missing type of demon... but why?
"Was there a type of demon we didn't grasp?... No, that's impossible. As I lived here, I did a thorough research. It's unlikely there's an unknown demon."
"Well, I got mixed up from the outside... or something?
"Even though there's only one entrance to the dungeon? You think we've moved up to six layers?
"Oh, can't be... sorry"
"You don't have to apologize for anything. Because there may also be new discoveries by recommending the possibility that there will not be. Don't be shy, you can say more."
"Yes..."
Even when they said that......, Finia was deeply perplexed.
If you can do that, you haven't got this personality.
I didn't want you to be unscrupulous, I thought secretly.
"So, but if you didn't get mixed up from the outside... did it occur naturally in the dungeon?
"It's not even possible...... I've been living here for over a hundred years. You've never heard of it."
"Oh well..."
"No. It doesn't mean there will never be. Right...... maybe that's more likely. I did some research in the dungeon, but that was a long time ago, too. The dungeon is like a creature, so there will be elements and new demons."
Elfin came to such a conclusion, thinking it was no big deal.
But Finia wasn't convinced.
Only on the day we race, suddenly, a new kind of demon appears.
Is that convenient, is it going to happen?
"Oh, um..."
"What's wrong?
"Uh, the... ho, I can't think of any other cause, can I?
"Is it another cause? What do you know about Finia?
"Well, yeah, that's not what I mean... I don't know, I feel like I'm getting caught up in something... maybe, but... there's a possibility that it's artificial"
"Hmm...... Interesting opinion, but that just won't be there. Creating new demons is not something you can do artificially. Well, if it's a legendary piece of equipment... no, you must think too much"
"Oh well..."
"Before that, I'll hurry. You can't beat a human being."
"Uh-huh."
... at this time.
If Elfin had thought a little more firmly about Phinea's words, he might have avoided the tragedy that awaited him ahead.
But I never noticed that, and my mother and daughter were behind the dungeon... approaching the tragedy.
