The "Never get everything you want... What do you mean?"

In the dark underground tunnel, the black-haired wizard with a frown muttered to himself, groping his way into the depths with the gray-eyed boy with Isaac on his back.

After the battle on the top of the snowy mountain, it took a lot of trouble to find the entrance to the tunnel, and Loren Turin, who had joined the two, was already exhausted, and his almost exhausted energy stabbed his brain over and over again, and his right hand holding the sword and the left hand with the "spellcaster" were trembling unconsciously.

Dead darkness, cold winds whistling from time to time, labyrinthine tunnels...... It made him feel like he was in a dream, as if his consciousness was still in the spiritual hall and had not returned to his body.

"I don't know ......"

Lusen looked even more tired than the black-haired wizard, with a terrifying fear in his eyes, and he swallowed his saliva with forced composure:

"All I know is that this Lord Farnesis is definitely not as 'ordinary' as he seems - it's just gut feeling and there's no evidence, but I'm pretty sure of it!"

Not ordinary... The corners of Loren's mouth couldn't help but reveal a slight cold arc.

Of course it's not ordinary.

Although it is not clear what he has been through, a priest of the Holy Cross who was once powerless, who should have died a long time ago, has now appeared in the cold hell at the end of the world......

Even with the protection of the Guardian Knight, he was no longer an "ordinary" cleric who could do so.

What's more, the other party can be alone in the glacial wasteland in the dark night, and find the exact location of the entrance with a small clue, which is really ......

"Your Excellency Loren. Lu Sien's expression was very hesitant, and his silver-gray pupils kept flashing with a tangled meaning:

"There's something I'd love to ask you......"

"What's that——?!?"

Isaac interrupted the gray-eyed boy's question with a sudden shout, and ran forward without looking back, and the two of them had to follow him before they even had time to react.

By the time the two caught up with Isaac, the guy was squinting on a rock, and with a snap of his fingers, the pale glow of the Firefly Spell illuminated the tracks on the rock.

Loren raised his eyebrows, still the traces left by the "First Wizard" Logan:

"If anyone travels far here, do not despair in the darkness;

For on this thorny road, when you are in a dilemma, when timidity grows;

That's when salvation comes;

Humility begets nobility;

So, please pray humbly;

The Holy Cross will shine on you——!"

Sighing softly, Loren, who raised his head, and the gray-eyed young man beside him looked at each other.

"What kind of wordplay, or hint that Logan deliberately left behind?" Lusin blinked, looking at the black-haired wizard with his hands outstretched:

"Just like last time, as long as we kneel down and pray, we can find any particularly important clues or something......"

Loren didn't answer him immediately, his eyes glanced at Isaac who was lying on the rocks and groping for something, and this guy didn't think he had been discovered, so he secretly turned his head and glanced at himself......

Sure enough, that's Isaac Grantham's style... The corners of Loren's mouth showed a slightly imperceptible helpless wry.

He probably guessed that Lusen might ask him some very embarrassing questions, so he deliberately interrupted the conversation between the two loudly, and then used the traces left by the "First Wizard" to divert everyone's attention.

Isaac has never been a "fool" with low emotional intelligence, he just disdains, or rather dislikes, these people's feelings, and that innate talent also makes him proud and arrogant.

A guy who is both simple and awkward......

"Lord Loren?"

The gray-eyed young man who noticed the black-haired wizard's "distraction" blinked, and said tentatively a little inexplicably.

"Oh, this shouldn't be a play on words or something, but more accurate information - if someone really came here, with the legendary Logan's character, they would never use guessing puzzles to make things difficult for each other."

Loren, who came to his senses, immediately spoke, pointing to the notch on the rock: "In order to make sure that others can find it, he didn't even use the 'old scriptures' but the standard Sachlan, indicating that he no longer cares about the identity of the person who came, and only hopes that the other party can be like him." ”

"Get 'salvation'... Is it?" the gray-eyed boy muttered to himself, slightly distracted.

"Exactly. ”

The black-haired wizard nodded slightly, and snapped his fingers with a "snap!"

"So the last sentence is the key - 'The Holy Cross will shine on you', just ask...... Where will the Holy Cross 'shine' on you?"

As the words fell, the three of them slowly raised their heads at the same time, and the "Firefly Spell" on the black-haired wizard's fingertips turned into a cloud of white light and flew lightly into the sky.

A spiral-shaped hoistway appeared in their eyes.

Niederhogg is already at hand——!

"I'll go up and take a look. Loren said without looking back: "You wait for my news, don't act rashly until I return." ”

This time, Lusen did not speak again, but nodded silently, watching his figure leap up the stone steps lightly, climbing up the edge of the shaft little by little.

Although it is easy to pretend to be easy, the scars on the black-haired wizard's body are impossible to fake...... The gray-eyed boy silently bowed his head and clenched his fists hard.

Although it was only an agreement between the two parties to become his bodyguard, it was really ...... to see the other party, who was his "wizard master", injured like this in order to protect himself

"You know... If I were you, I wouldn't have asked that stupid question. Isaac's tired, lazy voice came from behind him, and Lusen couldn't help but look back:

"Let's just pretend that the church god didn't lie—what if he did? Loren is always the kind of guy who won't stop if he doesn't achieve his goal, or do you think you can convince him?"

The gray-eyed boy was stunned for a moment, and raised his head suddenly: "So... So you did it on purpose?"

"What else can I do - you're all my friends, and I don't want to see you pinching in a place like this!"

Isaac shook his head helplessly, puffing out his mouth "poof!", "Forget it." ”

"You're my fourth friend, behind the old man at Freiswalk—I probably haven't had many friends in my life, so I don't want to lose any of them if I can!"

Ruson looked up at the black-haired wizard's back, his expression becoming more complicated......

At the same time, Loren was about to climb to the top of the shaft, his tired body had magnified almost every pain signal tenfold, and his originally clear vision was slightly blurred, as if covered with a layer of white transparency.

Wait a minute... It's not time to rest yet.

Hold on for a while, just a little while, and you're almost there......

The black-haired wizard, who kept talking to himself in his heart, and was a little trembling with gasping and screaming, gritted his teeth and finally climbed to a depression near the top, as if it had been too long and a part of the shaft had collapsed.

Reaching out to clasp a point of strength, Loren instinctively looked towards the sunken position, and just glanced at it, and the dark-haired wizard's pupils suddenly widened when he was a little stunned.

I saw that on the sunken rock wall, there was a pattern of the Holy Cross - not the original ancient Sakrand Cross, but the emblem of the Holy Cross today!

Right next to the badge of the Holy Cross was engraved a very vague lion-shaped pattern.

In the empire, especially in the south, there are countless families that use the lion as their coat of arms, but among the dukes above 10,000 people under the top one in the empire, only one family has a lion coat of arms......

The House of Turin in the Duchy of Byrne.

Could it really be that the "Black Duke" from a hundred years ago also came to Niederhogg, as Lusen said?

Loren, who seemed to have been choked by the throat, restrained his surprise and instinctively continued to climb up, pushing away with all his strength a stone plate blocking the shaft.

At that moment, a soft white light passed through the shaft through the gap and sprinkled on the three people at the same time.

"Hey...... Loren!" Isaac below immediately looked up and shouted excitedly, "What do you see?!"

A look of surprise froze on the black-haired wizard's face, and he spoke softly:

"Heavenly ......"
