"Roland and I believe in a being greater than a god."

Claudia said with a serious face.

"That doesn't sound like a serious sect......

Kruvine couldn't help but laugh.

But he looked at Claudia's expression, and the smile on the corner of his mouth narrowed little by little.

“…… Are you serious? ”

After a long time, Kruvine asked in an astringent voice.

Claudia just nodded, closed her eyes and whispered: "I beg you to see, there is only one breath left in my life, and there is no more happiness in my eyes......"

Suddenly, a very light silver-gray aura swirled slowly around Claudia, and her long golden hair, which covered her forehead, was blown by the wind and spread out to both sides, revealing the silver cross mark on her forehead.

As Claudia whispered her prayers, the life around her began to decay silently.

Not only did the wild dogs flee in terror, but the wild flowers on the roadside and the fruits and vegetables sold by the vendors also began to wither.

At first, Kruvien just felt some discomfort in his chest.

But as Claudia finished a short section of the chant and took a deep breath to begin the second verse, he suddenly felt the nerves in his shoulders and forearms begin to ache.

His breath burned and his neck and forehead became hot.

Kruvine vaguely glimpsed that there were already people around him holding his forehead** and falling.

"Those who want to see me will not see me again; Your eyes were set on me, but they were not cast on the earth—"

"Enough is enough!"

Feeling his heart beat slower, Kruvien was so frightened that he quickly stopped Claudia's prayer.

As Claudia's prayers stopped abruptly, the silver-gray breeze around her gradually dissipated. The Mountain Folk Shield Guardian felt his body begin to recover gradually, and he couldn't help but feel a little scared in his heart.

Claudia obviously didn't have divine power fluctuations on her body, but she easily caused such a terrifying effect. Kruvien was not prepared for this at all—if she now believed in something greater than the gods, Kruvien still did not believe it; But if the existence behind her is weaker than that of Sivir. Kruvien was certainly not convinced.

This being, which controls disease and decay, none of which is easy to get along with.

And Cruvine had good reason to prove that Claudia was not an apostate who betrayed Sivir and threw himself into Kranvo.

For as a defender, he had been spelled by the priest of Cranwo long ago.

The feeling of rotting even the internal organs together was something that Kruvien would never forget until he died.

It was precisely because he was hit by the three-ring [rotten stomach] when he was young that he has not been able to eat anything too greasy until now.

Kruvine was well aware that Cranvo's cursed spell could not be unrecovered once unleashed.

Compared to Cranwo, the one behind Claudia was able to materialize and easily retract the concept of decay, and this kind of freedom in the storage room was undoubtedly much more powerful than him.

“…… Is that why you killed Claude? ”

The expression of the Mountain Folk Shield Guardian suddenly became serious.

The answer was much more than he expected.

He originally thought that Roland was a certain soldier. Firemongers - the kind that resell military alchemical supplies.

Such an identity can also echo Claudia's identity. After all, the army. Fire is also an area that the goddess of war has wanted to touch for a long time.

But that's it. He couldn't understand Roland's action to blow up the City of Fortune.

From then on, he speculated that Roland was a mid-level cadre of a cult.

But no matter what, he never thought that the truth would be so sudden.

No matter how much he guessed, Cruvine didn't guess that Roland was a believer in a true god - in other words, Claude died in a battle between gods.

It wasn't something he could intervene in anymore.

However, he was inexplicably relieved.

Maybe it's because he's sure Roland and Claudia aren't as crazy as he thinks, or maybe it's because Claude isn't as hypocritical and cruel as he thinks......

If Roland and Claudia's betrayal had a reason to do so - or rather, it gave the mountain people an excuse to explain it.

Compare Claude. Kruvien is clearly more inclined towards Roland and Claudia.

Rather, it was because he believed in Roland that he thought he had to know a little more. Otherwise, no matter how strong the support is, it will be nothing more than empty words.

Under Kruvien's questioning. Claudia's expression was a little complicated.

She hesitated for a while before explaining, "The reason why Roland wants a teacher is because of ......"

Kruvien suddenly felt his brow jump.

It's like being injected with venom. An inexplicable sense of crisis quickly spread from his heart to his whole body.

This is the Omen of Danger trait of his shield defender.

Almost all defenders have similar characteristics, among them: The Heavenly Prayer Guardian can be ranked first, and the third is the crisis omen of the shield guardian and shield dancer series.

The tip of the heart is numb. It shows that this crisis is enough to threaten lives; However, Kruvine did not feel the sharp object cutting the muscles in his back, indicating that it was not the Assassin who was targeting him this time.

So, what is it......

Wizard of the Sword? Or the priest of the dark gods?

Kruvien gritted his teeth.

He knew very well that this level of crisis was no longer something he could handle.

However, if Claudia is added......

The moment the thought popped into him, he felt like he wanted to kick himself.

As a mountain dweller, as a descendant of a lonely mountain elder, how can a woman be in the way?

It's not just that Kruvien can't be involved...... She couldn't even notice that someone was eyeing her.

He looked up and saw that the people around him were staring at Claudia with fear because of the previous large-scale withering.

Cruvine had an idea, grabbed Claudia's hand and ran out of the city.

Claudia had run close enough to the gates before, and now it only took two or three minutes to get out.

"Because...... Huh? ”

Halfway through speaking, she was suddenly dragged away, and Claudia was a little confused.

…… Didn't you tell me not to touch you?

"Don't talk! Let's go out first! ”

Hearing Kruvien's shout, Claudia immediately realized something.

Immediately, she looked at the frightened and hateful expressions of the people around her, and her expression couldn't help but darken.

After all, what Claudia wants has never been feared......

So she obediently ran with Kruvien out of the city.

But the run seemed to be unstoppable—before she knew it, Kruvien had been running with her for nearly three kilometers.

Crewe ...... Kruvien! Where are we going? ”

Claudia couldn't help but panic a little as she watched herself get closer and closer to the tomb of a thousand heads.

That door was still full of blood.

For some reason, Claudia just didn't want Cruvine to know about Roland's atrocities, even if it was against the Twilight Seed.

She subconsciously slowed down her pace a little.

Kruvine didn't notice her expression at the moment.

He frowned and looked around.

That malicious gaze never dissipated. His heart even twitched at the intensity of malice.

…… Who the hell is it?

While he kept making various guesses in secret, he whispered back to Claudia, "Do you recognize a monster with a gem on its forehead and other signs that are indistinguishable from humans?" ”

Claudia first showed a blank expression, then she searched around in her mind, and immediately realized: "Is it pyroxene?" ”

"Maybe. I'm not so sure. ”

Kruvine squinted and glanced somewhere.

Just as Claudia said the name of the "pyroxene species", he could clearly feel a heavy breath coming from behind the tree......

While on the way, Kruvine suddenly had a suspicion that the stalker behind him was most likely the same accomplice or kind of pyroxene species he had killed.

Then, if you take Claudia back to the place where you captured the unkillable monster, there is a good chance that it will show its flaws.

Not surprisingly.

Kruvien smiled smugly.

"Claudia, see if it's like this...... Well? ”

Kruvine's eyes widened.

"See what?"

Claudia looked puzzled.

"That's not right...... There was supposed to be a one here...... Pyroxene species. ”

The captive he had previously removed his limbs and shattered his bones had completely disappeared in place.

A faint trace of blood could still be seen on the ground, but the person was indeed gone.

Suddenly, Kruvien was angry at the same time, but he had a little confidence-

He already understood who the man who was hiding in the shadows and plotting against him was.

Maybe it's not even the same kind of monster that can't be killed...... It's the pyroxene species itself!

Yes. So that everything can be said......

- Then, in order to prevent his sneak attack, you must strike first! (To be continued......)
