"I'm worried about you, Danica. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

When she heard this, Danica's body was like a frozen stone, and she didn't dare to move, and even her head was like sticky mud, messing into a paste.

Danica felt her heart beat faster instantly, and she didn't react for a long time.

Lance called her name in a confused tone.

"Danica, are you uncomfortable?"

"Danica, is it because your throat is upset?"

……

After a while, Danica finally reacted, she nodded slowly, and whispered, "My throat is a little hoarse." ”

"Well, there's no water right now, and there's only water when you go back to the tent area, do you want to take a break?"

“…… I. ”

"What?"

"Lance. ”

"Something I need to do?"

"No, it's not ......"

Danica moved her mouth, and for some reason, she said word by word, and spoke very slowly.

"Thank you...... Thank...... It's here. ”

Lance felt like she was a little stumbling, like something was embarrassing her, and her face looked strange.

Suddenly, Lance understood what was going on, and quickly reached out and pressed her shoulder, bowing his head slightly, staring at her mouth.

"Actually, it's not a hoarse voice, is it?"

Lance stared at her seriously, and then said, "There was a rare fish soup in the dinner just now, and you choked on the fish bones because you drank it too quickly, right?" ”

After hearing Lance's words, Danica showed an unprecedented expression of being struck by thunder and lightning, and her whole body was shocked by surprise, not only the rich association of Lance, but also a strange sense of detachment.

In the midst of these feelings, a wave of anger ignited in Danica's heart.

"What a fish bone! Damn the fish bones!!"

After yelling, Danica shook off Lance's hands on her shoulders and ran away without looking back.

"Ah......h

Lance watched her run away and touched the back of her head.

"I ...... It's not intentional, it's just a sentence, that kind of atmosphere...... I can't help it. ”

“……”

"Well, her mood should be better. ”

"It should be okay, right?"

This little episode led to Danica's glaring and scolding when she saw Lance when they met the next day.

"A fool is a fool!!"

In this regard, Lance could only shrug his shoulders secretly, and then make a laughing expression, soothing the angry Danica in a flattering tone.

Lance thought to himself, it could be regarded as a little gain, at least her face didn't look as ugly as before.

Hearing people in the tavern talk about plans to leave Ridingpa, Lance knew that the news of it would be a big blow to Danica. So, Lance wanted to find a chance to talk to her.

Although the topic was a little off the direction as she spoke, she also looked a little more energetic than before.

Lance knew that she had been holding on all this time, and even if she hadn't said anything about it, she must have been very troubled in her heart.

During this time, she was mostly alone at work, except for the time of meetings, Lance also did not have regular contact with her due to his own work, some of what he heard about her was from the residents, and some from Daune's side.

When they met, Lance couldn't help but recall the last time he saw Danica, and felt that her face was getting haggard and haggard every time.

So many burdens are almost all on one person, and even if they can be shared, the weight of sharing is not much.

Therefore, Lance couldn't help but say, couldn't help but tell her that he was actually worried about her.

Lance didn't expect Danica to react like that when he said it, it was unexpected, but now it seems to be a good thing. She had Dawn and Vance by her side, and the old butler and the old gardener had been doing their best to help her.

It's a family after all.

However, compared to other people, the residents of this mountain town, because the residents have their own families, the feeling of viewing from a distance is different from that of a close view.

Danica is always worried about everyone, and Danica herself needs to worry about others.

******

Joel followed the girl named Noeva to a luxurious house.

At the door of the house, Noeva bent slightly.

"Can you put your hand down by the way, by the way? I don't want my neck to be ripped off by a stranger at any moment. "After seeing the strange power of this purple-haired guy, on the way back here from the Magic Guild, the back of Noeva's neck has been restrained by Jo'er.

"If you dare to play any tricks. ”

Joel let go of her hand and threatened her with a fierce look.

Then, Noeva took out her wand, which was an aqua blue ** wand in the shape of an orchid.

"This is my home, and this doorway has a magic illusion to trick people passing by. ”

Noeva tapped the iron door in front of her with her wand, and the tip of her wand flashed, and the moment she touched the iron door, Joel saw a completely different scene from what she had just seen.

The black building that appeared in front of me was the real state of the house, not a square building, but a tall and pointed tower.

This black minaret stands straight in front of you, and when viewed from close up, it feels very spectacular.

"It's ...... Mage Tower?"

"That's right, that's why I used illusion magic to cover it up. Noeva blinked and stuck out her tongue.

"When this mage tower was built, it was really not easy to hide it from the people outside, I hope you can keep this secret and don't tell others. ”

Joel looked up at the spire, it looked like it should have ten floors, Joel's attention was drawn to the tower, from the blood of her body, even the soul in the deepest part of her body, something was seducing herself, calling to herself.

"Let's go, the person you're looking for, it's inside. ”

Noeva stepped forward and led her the way, as if the threat had just been made to her had never happened.

"You're not afraid?"

Yo'er followed, giving her a strange look.

"Scared, on the contrary, I'm very interested in you, you have a very deep magic in you. ”

“……”

Then, the two entered the mage's tower, and after closing the door, Noeva suddenly turned around.

"Before I meet the person you're looking for, let me tell you something. ”

The girl, who looked like a noble lady in front of her, suddenly showed a strange smile to Yo'er, as if Yo'er was the prey that had run into her hands, and she was waiting for what to do with this prey.

"At the same time that this tower was built, I was given what could almost be called an artifact, and this thing was inside this tower, and it threatened anyone who entered this place except for me and the guests I recognized. ”

"W-W?"

"That thing is ...... The heart of the dragon. ”

Noeva opened her mouth, showed an excited expression, and laughed excitedly.

"Anyone can be threatened by it, not even you. When I got it, it was still alive, jumping and jumping, and then I made it into one of the greatest magic items of all time. ”

"Well! I'm amazing!"

"Even if a tenth-order demonic beast breaks into here, it has to kneel at my feet obediently!"

“…… Are you an idiot?"

Joel looked at her like a madman, and when she understood everything, she showed a hint of pity and prayed for the dragon that had ended up in this way.

"You don't know how you do it, you seem to take it as an interest, and its soul never rests, and from the moment I came in, it told me so, that it wanted to be liberated, that it wanted to get out of here. Joel looked at Noeva and said, word by word, "I will not forgive you, ignorant Terran." ”

"What stupid are you talking about?"

It was like Neueva was looking at something strange.

"I don't understand what you're talking about, but I can give you a taste of what it's like to have to kneel, like the one you're looking for, and have to bow at my feet. ”

“！”

"You barged in on your own. ”

Noeva began to wave her wand, a spell quickly uttered in her mouth, and Joel ignored her movements, looking around with all her attention. Just now, she smelled a very faint smell, and the smell could not be ignored, it was the smell of blood.

The smell of blood is upstairs, and I don't know which floor.

Turning his head, Yoel glared at Noeva, who seemed to have finished reciting the incantation, and when she saw that she was still standing, her face was shocked, "How is it possible? What did you do? The dragon's heart actually has no effect on you?"

"You show me the way at once, and I can consider sparing your life. ”

"Why are you still standing!!"

Noeva let out a scream, an incredulous expression.

"I decided to take back what I just said, you're so annoyed. ”

Finding Nevit was the most important thing, and Joel didn't want to be with this guy anymore.

She raised her head, and a demonic roar rang out from her mouth, and the roar spread, shaking the mage tower around her.

In an instant, all the glass of the window shattered, like an earthquake, and many things fell, including the glass lamps on the walls, and then, in an instant, darkness ushered in.

Noeva began to scream at this sudden darkness, and squatted down with her hands on her head, completely at a loss.

"All the magic items and magic circles in this tower are invalid. ”

Joel closed his eyes in the dark, and the voices that he couldn't hear under the influence of the tower were now clearly heard.

"You can't do anything, and you can't escape. ”

Joel's eyes clearly saw Noeva crouching on the ground looking for her wand, and in that direction, she dropped the oath-like word and ran quickly upstairs.

As he ran up the stairs as quickly as he could, Joel said to himself that he would deal with that stupid fellow when he found Newit.

And now.

"Nevit!
