Phoenix felt like she was in a white world, and she could feel the cold wind that was often chilling in the north. It was the place she knew best, and she had inhabited it for centuries after the war. I don't know how long it took, a looming figure approached her from a distance.

"Stupid Trise, what are you doing here again?"

Phoenix said sullenly.

"I heard from Harrow that you are at odds again?" asked King Terres, cheerfully.

"Hmph, that stupid dragon!"

"I mean, you're all monsters, you should get along well. ”

"Don't listen to it, don't listen, anyway, what kind of rhetoric are you going to say, you humans are all good words. Phoenix covered his ears with his wings, and by the way, smothered his entire head.

"Why, it's obviously from a friend's concern. ”

"Friends, your people don't want us to be friends!"

"Hmm...... Yes, I didn't expect to be so cumbersome about building a kingdom. Az-Tris sat down on the ground and sighed in anguish.

"Hey, why did you complain to me?"

"Really, isn't it normal to complain to a friend? I went to Harrow to complain for a while, but she quickly kicked her out. Teres said pitifully.

"Is that what friends are used to do this?" Phoenix moved the left wing covering his head away and waited for Az-Teris with a puzzled look.

A friend is someone who listens to you when you're troubled, comforts you when you're angry or upset, helps you when you need it, and pulls you back on the right path when you've gone astray...... So, if you have any grievances against Helo, just let me know!"

With that, Aziz Tris patted his chest and offered himself.

"Who would tell you!" Phoenix twisted his face to the side.

"Yes, Phoenix, you're much stronger than I thought. Despite the refusal, Azi-Terres grinned in response, got up from the ground, and said, "I'll be relieved to make sure you're safe, and I'll have to go to McCallis after visiting you...... I'm here to say goodbye to you. ”

"Farewell, are you going somewhere else?"

"That's right......"

Az-Teres turned around and raised his hand at her, "Don't worry, as long as the journey continues, surprises will happen, and maybe one day you will suddenly find that you have a lot of friends around you." ”

It's been a long journey.

Phoenix suddenly felt that the white world had become a little dazzling, and the footsteps of Teres were still ringing in her ears, and the back of the other party was getting farther and farther away in front of her.

Then, a crack appeared in the white world.

"Bang-"

"Phoenix. ”

She gradually felt the resistance at her horns, and it made her a little uncomfortable. Behind the cracks, there is a faint silhouette.

"Think about the path you've traveled so far—you've learned the language of the human race, you've changed into the human form, you've walked out of the caverns of the North into human society, you've decided to cross paths with the humans, and you've had your first believers. You've traveled a lot, you've fought against the Chaos Cult, and some people see you as a hero......"

"Dead noise, Tris!"

Phoenix narrowed his eyes and said to Az-Tris, who was not far away in the white world.

Hearing Phoenix's call, Az-Teris stopped, and he shrugged, "I didn't say anything. But, Phoenix, if you listen closely, you might occasionally hear something other than hate. ”

"Phoenix, don't you keep saying that we are companions? Aren't companions going to make your mind hot and reckless in the imperial capital...... But a true companion will not only correct your mistakes, but also share the consequences with you - after that, I will personally bring you to church to apologize, and now, I will fulfill the obligations of a companion!"

- "Phoenix, you're not the alone, instinctive scourge of killing anymore, are you?"

"Boom-"

Wrapped around Lin Qiu's arm, it seemed to come to life at this moment, and under the unparalleled pressure, the last defensive barrier of the church collapsed, and the magnificent tower top was shattered into countless sections, but the crack did not stop there, it was like a raging beast running between every piece of rubble of the church under the strong shock.

The people who were witnessing everything from a distance rubbed their eyes in disbelief.

The headquarters of the Church, which had been standing since the first demon tide, completely collapsed under this blow!

"Really, I can't even figure out who is in the hot head. ”

Ramov shoved away the completely stunned young knight, his right hand pressed against the wall of the church, he let out a loud cry, and finally stopped the building that was leaning to one side. After destroying the dome of the church, Lin Qiu and Phoenix fell down, and one person and one dragon smashed the open space in front of the church into a bottomless hole, and for a while, the entire imperial capital was like an earthquake, and the sea of ice around the imperial capital was hit up by layers of huge waves.

The world in front of Phoenix's eyes was also turned upside down.

Everything in front of her cracked, and she finally saw what was behind the white world—the billowing smoke, the ruined church, and Lin Qiu, who was lying on her back not far from her.

At the edge of the two worlds, she seemed to hear the last of Terres's voice.

Congratulations, Phoenix.

You've finally found a trusted partner.

"Phoenix. Lin Qiu looked at the gray sky and made a faint sound.

"Huh?"

This time, Phoenix finally responded. She lay on her side, curling herself up in a ball with her dragon wings, a snort in response. The wounds from the shock had healed shortly after she landed, and she could feel the power surging within her, but at this moment, she didn't want to move.

After the manic instinct declined, her heart was extraordinarily peaceful.

"Phoenix. Lin Qiu called her name again.

"I'm listening. ”

"That...... I seem to ......"

Lin Qiu lay in the ruins and hesitated for a long time before he said, "I seem to have demolished the church just now, do you think we can get away with lying here and pretending to be dead?"

"I don't know. ”

To Lin Qiu's surprise, Phoenix immediately raised her arms and shouted without excitement, she seemed to be hesitating, and after a long time, she said in a low voice: "Or, let's go and apologize to the Holy Maiden, you are not allowed to regret it, we have already said it just now." ”

"Well, that's a deal. ”

Hearing this, Phoenix turned over in confidence.

This time Teres didn't seem to lie to her.
