While the witches were overwhelmed by the monster that suddenly appeared from the wall, Sach sat quietly in the kitchen chair thinking about Hela's questions to him. From a behavioral point of view, Sahe shows patience and concentration that he should not have at his age, and it is not difficult to speculate on the reason, the chaotic environment is the easiest for children to grow up quickly, but this kind of growth allows them to learn the truth that they should understand when they grow up, and at the same time, it may also expand and lengthen the character flaws that should disappear with growth.

This incident is reflected in Saich, probably a disregard for the value of life, he can give up his life for a full meal, and don't expect him to value the lives of others because of this. Of course, the above sentence does not include Hela, the person who has spoken to him the most in his lifetime, and he has regarded him as some kind of idol, even if he now asks Sach to worship the witch, he will not hesitate in the slightest. And since Hela gave him a question, he had to come up with an answer.

The child in the darkness held his head in thought, and a candle was placed on the table in front of him, and the candlelight illuminated the kitchen full of food. It was evident that the witches no longer used a separate room as a storage room, and Sach also noticed that there seemed to be nothing in the so-called kitchen other than food. But what is supposed to be in the kitchen? The poor little fellow had never owned a kitchen, nor had he been told how it was constructed, but he knew that the kitchen house had the miraculous ability to cook raw meat, and that this ability was not possessed only by witches. So this kitchen is not normal in the eyes of Sach.

"Da Da Da!" the sound of hurried footsteps sounded from the corridor outside the room, there were only three living people in this fortress, and the footsteps were rapid but not heavy, indicating that the person who sent it was very light. "Miss Hela!" Sach shouted as he tried to speak. It was indeed Hela who walked through the corridor, but the witch didn't have the time to speak to the child in such a slow and methodical tone anymore.

The Grave Girl barely stopped, looked at Saihe who was about to walk out of the kitchen, and shouted, "Stay there, don't come out!" Saich stood on the edge of the table in a daze, tilting his head and standing still. He didn't know what he had done wrong to be reprimanded by Miss Hela, after all, Saich, who had no night vision, couldn't see the anxious expression on Hela's face, and judging by the hurried tone he heard, the witch must have been angry because she was too stupid to think of the answer to that question.

Think fast, think fast ! Saich bit his lip tightly, he couldn't live up to Hela's expectations of himself, absolutely not. Besides, I don't know when another witch named Karen will come and take her life, and she must not die without completing the question given by Lady Hela! The only eye that shed tears because of anxiety did not happen to Sach a long time ago, because since a long time ago, the child had no emotions enough to stimulate him to tears.

And those who have also long forgotten the phenomenon of tears, there is another one here. After all, since the mountain monster is named after the monster that lives in the mountains in legends, it is natural that it is as resolute as that kind of monster. The silent gatekeeper could never see the change in mood, and only saw everything outside through the gap between his helmets with those two cold eyes. He watched all the buildings and alleys outside the fortress, and even though the faint sound of the waves could be heard in the distance, no one could bypass him and enter the building he was guarding. Unless, it's the people in the building who want to come out.

"Gatekeeper, I need your help!" Hela's voice came from the hallway behind the mountain monster. The stout guard slowly turned around and leaned his back against the wall of the entrance, allowing himself to see both inside and outside the hallway. Even when called by a witch, the mountain monster is still on the lookout for someone who wants to break into the fortress. In his experience, those who didn't get a chance to get on the ship and were unwilling to accept their fate would always be forced by the sound of the tsunami to storm the witch's fortress in vain to win a safe refuge. The specks of blood on his black armor and the stumps in front of the fortress also show that this kind of thing will not be an exception before this tsunami.

Hela ran closer, her already pale face flushed unusually under the intense exercise, which made her words more convincing. But the gatekeeper remained sideways, his cold eyes fixed on the witch, and there was no intention of moving his feet. "There's an enemy in the fortress! you have to help!" Hela said to the mountain monster, knowing that the other party's personality was too stubborn to move in a few words, and if it weren't for that, the witches wouldn't have assigned him to be the gatekeeper of the fortress.

"Enemies, people?" The mountain monsters are not surprised by the presence of enemies in the fortress, and although the sturdy outer walls block the entry of foreign enemies, witches can often make the fortress a tricky opponent when they perform demon summoning or other dangerous alchemical experiments. In normal times, the witches would evacuate from the fortress and wait for reinforcements to arrive before exterminating the enemy. But now that the tsunami is approaching, even if a distress signal is issued, the witch group may not risk sending reinforcements. But if the mountain monsters are now retreating inside the fortress, who will guard the gates?

Hela could see the Gatekeeper's difficulties at a glance, and although she was only ordered to garrison the fortress this time, she had heard from other witches about the situation before each tsunami. Hela glanced at the scene outside the fortress and made a decision, "You go to the top level now to help Kalun, and I'll close the entrance." "The closure of the entrance is not a random thing, due to the poor airtightness, the air inside the fortress is extremely limited, and if you want to survive until the tsunami recedes, you must strictly control the timing of the entrance closing. In order to reduce the consumption of oxygen in the fortress during the tsunami, the witch group only allowed a maximum of two witches to be stationed at a time.

Seeing Hela speak, the mountain monster nodded, and walked towards the fortress. Behind him, a black stone wall slowly fell under the witch's spell, keeping out the last rays of light from the outside world.

"Knock, knock, knock!" the sound of footsteps sounded from outside the kitchen again, only this time much heavier. When Sach heard this, he immediately stood up, and he opened his mouth to speak, but saw that the person passing through the corridor was not Hela but the silent gatekeeper. It was only when he was a little nervous that he wanted to sit down again that the witch came running down the hallway.

"Miss Hela, I see! I know the answer to your question!" The answer is—" Unfortunately, Hela doesn't have the energy to listen to Sech's speculation right now. She had a bad premonition about Galen who was left alone on the upper floors to block the hallway. So this time, she ran past the kitchen door without looking. The child who was left in the room put his arm down in vain and said in a voice that grew quieter and quieter, "The answer is the grave." Only the tomb separates the room and does not have a door, because it is closed and is never intended to be opened, and of course there is no need for a door. ”
