This monster Lothar who rose from the river is no stranger, he comes from the place where Helen was born, Heartless Bay. Anyone who sailed in that area knew that the bottom of the water was inhabited by half-human, half-fish creatures, which they called krakens. The name Siren sounds like a legendary monster that inhabits the ocean floor and feeds on humans, but in fact, the Kraken has inhabited the sea area long before humans occupied the Bay of Lost Heart, and the civilization and traditions they have established are not much worse than those of humans who sail on the sea. And among these Sirens, one is particularly familiar with Lothar, but it is precisely because of this that the Count is very sure that this Siren should be dead. Died in a battle that completely changed the composition of the forces in Heartless Bay.

"Fioni, whom I know, is dead. I witnessed his death with my own eyes. The Count said in a deep voice, looking at the Siren with a rather complicated expression.

The Siren, known as Fioni, glanced at him and turned his gaze to the riders who were whistling towards the worms, "Look around you, they're all dead." The problem is you, you yourself ran into the realm of the dead, but still pointed at a dead person and made a fuss. ”

"I—" Lothar was stunned by the Kraken, he narrowed his eyes, carefully observed the existence with the appearance of Fioni, and then suddenly understood something, and his expression was no longer so hideous, "So, he came to you?

Hearing this, the Kraken's face turned back to Lothar and showed an incomprehensible smile, "yes, I also picked a good spot for him, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to find him so quickly." It took me a lot of effort to find a specific grain of sand from the beach, otherwise I could have appeared in front of you sooner. ”

Now the Count knew who the man in front of him was, and why he was here. After returning from Heartbreaker, he showed Cheese the tattoo on his arm, and the Master told him that there was no real time to be involved with this being. However, seeing the other party again at this time did not make Lothar afraid, from Heartless Bay to now, he has learned to look down on some things and accept the tricks of fate, but there are some things that he can't let go, "What about her?

"Nope. The Kraken shook his head and shrugged his shoulders as Lothar showed obvious disappointment, "You know, I'm just lying there waiting for them to come to me. If they don't want to or get lost on the way here, then I can't help it. Besides, many people don't come voluntarily. And I have time, so I don't mind if they wait for others to go on the road or wander around in one place. It's you, if you don't hurry up and figure out a way, we won't be able to meet again for a long time. ”

Lothar was a little surprised by his answer, but as he had reminded, now was not the time to think deeply, his stamina was still being drained in the midst of this chaos, and if he didn't get food supplies, he really wouldn't be able to last long. But even so, the Count did not think that he had any chance of surviving now, and it was true that the undead riders were attacking the worms, but their attack was pointless, not to mention that a large part of the worm's body was hidden in the roots of the trees, and that the parts that were exposed and could be attacked by the riders were also terrifyingly tough. With Lothar's eyes, he could see the riders charging towards the monster, swinging their blades desperately and even crashing into the monster without causing it any damage. It was possible that the worm was not an undead spirit, and the blade of the deceased could not hurt it in the slightest, but it didn't matter if it was true, the important thing was that the worm had not shown any chance that it could be exploited by Lothar so far, what could he do?

Perhaps sensing the Earl's helplessness and weakness in silence, the Siren sighed, "Looks like you need a little help? ”

This sentence reminded Lothar of a rather bad experience. During the Battle of Heartless Bay, he and several of his companions went on an expedition to explore a mysterious cave, only to encounter an unexpected ambush in the cave, which almost killed the Count. Unexpectedly, he did not die just like that, but with the help of the existence in front of him, he became in a strange state between life and death, in which he did not need to breathe, eat, drink, or feel tired, and at the same time, the strength and speed of his body increased exponentially. But the price was that for every second that Lothar was immortal, something in him that could make him a human was gone. And in the end, the Count also relied on the secret treasure he found by luck to regain his life. The memories were so precious that Lothar never wanted to experience them again, because this time, he knew that there was nothing that could bring him back to life.

"I think it's better to forget it. If you ever turn me like that again, I'd rather die here. True, Lothar did not want to die, but sometimes to continue to exist meant paying a higher price than death, which was also unacceptable to him. Moreover, he didn't believe that the other party had only one solution.

"Okay, okay. Actually, it's not as bad as you think, and you're the most qualified of all I've ever met, probably because you have quite a lot of self-control, and this self-control mixed with the desire to survive has become your support. Instead, I tried with some dying people, and they all failed. The presence of Fioni saw Lothar's concerns at a glance, and he said casually, not surprised by the count's refusal, "Well, in that case, I have another way." ”

After the Kraken finished speaking, the scales began to emit an unnatural light, Lothar didn't know what he was going to do, but he knew that it was a precursor to the other party's imminent end of this conversation, "Wait, why are you helping me?"

"Oh, that's a good question. In fact, if you think about it carefully, you can understand that, in your words, death is my domain, and all the souls of the dead are under my control. But look around you, these people are dead, dead for many years. But what are they doing? They didn't come to me, they didn't have nostalgia for the world, they were just, stuck here. This is really unacceptable to me. With that, Fioni's body began to be engulfed in black mist oozing from the scales, and the whole person disappeared into the river.
