Then her eyes darkened, and she found herself on the top of the familiar tower.

"Crackle-" Several thunderbolts accompanied by lightning exploded in her ears, and the silver-haired girl struck a stirring and turned her head to look outside.

The ground of the City of Stars is gone.

Instead, there was a bottomless dark purple whirlpool, above which there were some clouds and non-clouds, fog and fog, so that it was impossible to see what was below.

The base and body of the Giant's Tower were gone, and in front of her was a solitary platform with an endless starry sky above and an eerie whirlpool below, making it impossible to know where she was.

"This is really another dimension, and it is definitely not the original Giant's Tower!"

The silver-haired girl withdrew her gaze from the horrific whirlpool and landed her gaze on the book in the center of the platform.

Codex ...... The Book of Truth is still here, could it be that it is a hub connecting the two dimensions? ”

"Book of Truth, please tell me how to get out of here and return to the true Tower of the Giants." She looked at Dolinda and Bellerel, who were covered in scars, and turned her heart on the sidelines and pulled out the interface for job transfers.

If this problem is beyond her strength, then she has to use this to save her life.

"This is the true Tower of the Giants."

Not feeling the weight of squeezing people into meatloaf, she saw a shocking answer on the blank page.

"Sizzle......"

At this time, Xia suddenly felt an unusual movement behind him, and his cold hair stood up and jumped to the side, and the place where he was standing was covered by a canopy of shadows.

“？”

Dolinda, who was resting, noticed the anomaly and lifted her neck.

"Hurry up and get to the back of that book! It should be safe there! ”

Natsu noticed that the shadows were far away from the Codex, and seemed to be afraid of the book, so he gave instructions to the two little dragons.

The little silver dragon arched the little blue dragon's body, and the latter stood up tiredly. Looking at this side in confusion, she was almost about to fall asleep just now, but she was awakened.

"How did this guy get here?"

The silver-haired girl thought coldly, and the hand holding the sword tightened.

"Did it come here after us? No, the Fragment of God cannot be space-shifted while stealth. ”

"Giggles, the master is gone. I can eat. ”

The shadow took on the shape of a human face again, and the red tongue protruded from the cracked slit, and he licked and said:

"You...... It smells so good. ”

It slowly approached this way:

"By all means...... Delicious......"

At this critical juncture, Xia closed his eyes.

Shadow, regardless of what she wanted to do, picked up speed and swooped down on top of her head.

The silver-haired girl opened her eyes suddenly!

A white sword light lit up from her hand, slashing straight at the face of the shadow that had turned into two.

Then she rushed to one of the pillars at the top of the tower, reached out and slapped it hard:

"I'm going to challenge the Tower of Giants again! Send all three of us to the 1st floor! ”

In her anxious waiting. The pillar lit up as she had hoped.

"Hehe, it seems that you have come out of the shadow of failure, but the road ahead is still bumpy and difficult......"

The voice began to talk nonsense again.

"Get me in!"

Natsu channeled all the divine power that Mi Lei Ye had injected into her body, as she found that the shadows had merged back together, and chased after her side with her bright red tongue.

“…… Very good, re-challenger 1st, enter the Tower of Giants for the second time, and I look forward to you being able to go further! ”

A merciless voice came from the pillar. Immediately after that, a white light flashed in the blank gaze of the silver-haired girl, and a feeling of dizziness struck. She reappeared at the base of the dark tower.

"Dolinda?"

She stood still, calling Dolinda's name in an incredulous voice.

No response.

"Bellerier?"

Her body began to shake violently.

Still no response.

"Click, click......" The footsteps of the undead were heard in the distance.

The enemies of the first layer quickly appeared around as they had just done before, approaching where she was, and could hear hollow collisions and smells of foul odors.

But...... The silver-haired girl, who was shrouded in great sadness, had completely lost her fighting spirit and slowly fell to her knees on the ground.

"Because I ...... error in judgment"

Dolinda and Bellerreal...... Just dead? ”

"Even the dragons. I can't face the ability of that fragment, I will definitely be devoured by it! ”

Tears of remorse welled up in her eyes.

"Why? Why should I bring them out? ”

"-It would have been nice to leave them in the Prison Prison!"

The silver-haired girl bowed her head and lay on the ground crying sadly, not paying any attention to the approaching undead.

The armored skeleton holding the rusty iron sword in his hand staggered close to her, the soul fire in his eyes revealing indifference. Prepare to reap the lives of this human who has lost the will to fight.

Although the other party is beautiful, this kind of thing is worthless to the undead, all they have to do is tear these humans into pieces and enjoy each other's flesh and blood.

No matter how beautiful it looks, if it is chopped into meat sauce...... It's just food.

"Hoo ——!" The dark blade slashed down at the silver-haired girl's back.

The accuracy of ordinary undead is not high, even if they can control weapons, they are simply swung, and they rarely use precision attacks, and if they are replaced by intelligent creatures, they will definitely cut off the opponent's head first, or go straight to the enemy's heart.

“！！”

The long-standing battle instinct woke Natsu awake.

Since these undead were monsters that had broken through the boundary, they moved quickly, and the blade of the iron sword had already touched the silver-haired girl's clothes at this time, cutting a hole in the thick swordsman's suit.

"Peng!"

At this time, dodging was superfluous, Xia directly contracted her waist, and the whole person rushed forward, a hot pain came, her cursed body trembled, and the clothes on her waist instantly crumbled.

This was a completely subconscious action, so it couldn't be perfected, but the stagnation of the swordsman's suit itself, as well as the forward friction of the body, moved the blade of the sword, and the movement of the armored skeleton was a little off.

Then the silver-haired girl twisted her waist with her flexibility and dodged the attack.

But she wasn't a god after all.

The long blade of the sword dodged, but it was difficult to dodge the protruding tip of the sword, and a puddle of blood spilled from her waist, staining the floor bright red.

"How can it hurt so much!"

Natsu rolled on the ground in a cold sweat, the pain deepened by the curse almost paralyzing her entire body, and a high-pitched whisper sounded in her head, a sign that some function was about to collapse. (To be continued.) )
