Further into the ruins, I encountered a black and white lion near an empty throne.
Beor Hydun.
Before my existence, which is also the origin of our power, I feel irritated by the feeling of intimidation that I felt when I was at Leon.
"Can you eat this sweet?"
However, the tension was also watered down by the words of her sister, who was beside her.
With my sister, it's just a little too much...?
I don't know whether it is dull or big.
In fact, since this is one of the ruins that has been closed for hundreds of years, it is a suspicious substitute that we do not know where the confectionery will come from.
I also know that Rifa wonders.
"Don't worry. It's a souvenir from King's Landing that my family bought the other day. Sweet and bitter sponge cake with citrus mousse. I have prepared a jam for my lipstick."
"Hey, hey."
Wait, I can't keep up with my thoughts!?
Surprisingly snob, you god beast! I know something amazing about human food!?
I don't hesitate to wonder about the sweets at hand, but that's what I think.
"My name is Beor Hydun. ——— A god beast in charge of darkness and cold air, called Bern. You can call me whatever you want."
A divine beast who introduces himself in a gentle atmosphere, Bern.
Having some strange thoughts about his appearance, he continues to utter words.
"Now, let's apologize for the inconvenience."
"Bad time...?"
Alihara Kite was supposed to be here.
But he's not here.
Kate fell into a hole with Russell.
Kate, your ability to adapt to the situation is as magical as possible, so I don't have to worry about falling... but in the first place, were you just going to drop Russell in that hole?
"I drilled a hole to pull away those with you, but the last Pure Demon, Alihara Kite, did not hesitate. I jumped into a hole to save him from falling."
"... enough for the Beast of God to fear?"
It's not normal to bother pulling away from us.
Who is Russell?
First of all, I'm sure it's not a decent creature.
"Yeah, but I just watched him and him fall and decided to change my perception a little bit."
"Changing... what were you going to do when only Russell was dropped?"
"Of course, I was going to take care of it in my space. Now... I'm just looking at things a little bit."
Tilt his neck to Bern, who says things slightly badly.
The power of the Holy Beast will make it easier to deal with Russell, who considers himself a danger.
But didn't you do it for a good reason?
"Now I'm using my powers to find out what he's up to. If anything happens, we can get Kite out of here right away."
"You mean you're feeding on kites...?"
"From my point of view, it will be."
Rifa's expression became dull.
No matter how well prepared they are, they are not convinced that Kate will be taken in. [M]
Still swallowing the words he wanted to spit out, Rifa asks Bern questions.
"What is Russell?"
"I'm sure it's a god beast. It is also a god beast who is surprisingly familiar with human society. It's superior to being unaware of us, and it has a deep understanding of humans."
When she first met that man, she said she hadn't changed at all since 20 years ago.
But, Kate, come on.
It's too much to attract a god beast like that...
"Sichet Conrad, a god beast without malice to humans, is swallowed up in a narrow dimension, and the Thousand Blade Butterfly Quat Melbus is resting on the egg in a secret sleep.... the flame beast Armergank is also in a position to watch over the world."
"You don't know either?"
"If it were possible, it would be the god beast that once ravaged the continent. As you know, Medullarium and Fillion were both incredibly rough, but now they're getting a little bigger."
With such a mouth, Bern makes his mouth slightly more difficult to say.
I feel a little smiley about the big lion doing such a trick, but the look on his face is steep.
"--- He has a clear intent to kill Kite."
"...!?"
Me and Rifa are stunned by the words that were released without a clue.
That he was going to kill you, Kite!?
I didn't pretend like that at all.
Rather, it even seemed friendly to him, who was so nostalgic.
"What do you mean!? Why, kite!"
"I don't know what he's thinking. The thing is, he was approaching the ruins to get in touch with you from the beginning."
To get closer to you, Kite...
Lifa stood up in a hurry.
"In that case, I have to pull you away from the kite...!"
"If he tries to hurt Kite, it'll be quick. But that's not all he's got on him."
Well, what do you mean?
"Sure, it's a fact that he has a killer intent on Kite. He entered the ruins and seeped into them several times - all of which he himself stopped doing."
You mean you stopped acting on your own when you were ready to act?
You mean there was a reason why you couldn't act? Because Bern was there?
But the Beast could have killed Kite in an instant, destroyed the ruins, and escaped.
"Besides, that man's love and attitude towards you is not false. Without a doubt, he is a god beast on the human side."
I don't know what that means.
"That's why we have to look."
Kate, I'm trying to kill you, and you're on my side?
My head is starting to scratch.
"In the meantime, let's talk about another purpose."
"Another one...?"
Ah.
Point your eyes towards the dark, but warm, light.
"Why I empowered you and how I treated you."
Until now, I had assumed that their power came from monsters.
In fact, however, it was a tremendous force brought about by the Beast.
We were about to find out why it had been deposited with us.
