"The second gift is this"

Linda clapped her hands as she spoke, and then a golden magic ball gradually emerged from her palm. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The dense honeycomb-shaped small lattice looks like the all-gold shield that Linda is good at.

Whoa—

And then the little squares fell down like gold leaf, revealing a cylindrical shape—

"Eh——!?"

I couldn't help but shout.

This hourglass-shaped gadget is undoubtedly a sacred artifact of 'time'!

"Huh?"

The King of Giants also made a puzzled sound.

"Mespier is serious?"

"Yes, Your Majesty of Brixington, the Elven King is very confident in our friendly relations"

You can feel that the King of Giants is all focused on this little toy.

"Well, when you get back to the Dawn Mountains, you can tell Mespil that I'm glad to take it"

Ho ho, it's really different.

When he received the first gift, the giant was only slightly surprised, and this second gift made Brixington 'happy'.

'Actually, this is also a return to the original owner of the giant'

'Oh?'

Elle seemed to know why.

In the memory of the little one, this sacred relic itself was a giant's thing, which was stolen by the elves when it was very old, and has been sleeping in the elves' treasure vault ever since.

"As for the third gift, Your Majesty Brixington, we need your help first"

"Oh...... Tell me, any of you who need our help."

The giant's attitude was noticeably much friendlier.

Linda looked back at Ellie and me.

"Her Royal Highness Princess Ellie Heranna and Issadur, the two of them need your help"

"Oh, how can I help them?"

"Actually, we fell into an ambush by the dragons"

Although Linda deliberately did not say that we were in ambush on the battlefield of the Satie chieftain, this level of intelligence was probably known to the giants for a long time.

After all, Chief Satie and the Giant are still friendly, so Linda's slightly evasive rhetoric makes sense.

"The witch's magic attacked the holy object 'Sleeping Volcano' in Eleherana's body, and now the scorched earth elves have been in a deep slumber all along"

"Okay - I see"

The giant's voice carried a hint of trouble in it, but after all, he had already received a gift from Mespil, so he couldn't say anything more.

"So, first"

The consciousness of giants is concentrated on us.

"I can sense from the torrent that Elice Herena has made a soul connection with some elf, and I need both of them to be here to make adjustments to her relics."

Ay?

Oh...... Because I don't have a head, the giants can't see my existence with visible light, and now I am simply transparent to them.

"My king, that human is already here"

Gizel hastened to correct the fallacy of his own king.

"What?human?and already here!?"

Boom –

There was an earth-shattering roar, as if the world had collapsed in an instant, the light in front of us suddenly dimmed, and when the sight was restored again, the cliff had already stood upright, no, it should be said that the giant had stood upright.

Several times larger than Gisel's mountain-like body, the entire body is made of delicate white rocks, completely devoid of earth, and as flawless as a miracle created by the gods......

Uh, to be precise, flawless, except for the absence of a head.

And his arms were raised high, like a skyscraper floating overhead.

"Calm your anger, my king, he is the medium of Ellie Heranna"

Gizel added another sentence after speaking.

"Judging from the conversation just now, it should still be Princess Elliehana's soul connector, he is different from that group of humans"

"Whoa—"

The King of Giants exhaled in a thick, nasal voice, indicating that he was controlling his emotions.

"Whew, forgive me for my temper, guests"

Brixington took a step back, letting out an earth-shattering tremor.

The weight of this giant is probably immeasurable, and if it weren't for the torrent and magic that filled this hard land, the sea cliff would have collapsed if he had gone under his feet.

I swallowed my saliva, and I could feel my whole body recover from a state of collapse, and the feeling of my life hanging by a thread was really long gone.

Ellie relented, and quickly withdrew the two hands that were holding my head.

Hiss –

Linda, who was standing in front of us, made a slight sound from her, like the hissing sound of some flame being extinguished.

Could this girl, could it be that if the King of Giants had smashed down with a punch just now, she would have used the heavenly fire to fend off Brixington's blow?

I can't be sure.

After making the soul pact with Mespier, Linda has changed so much that even Elle and I can't read her anymore.

"So"

The King of Giants leaned down and brought him closer to us, like a short-sighted man trying to see the worm that had fallen to the ground.

"Let's start the adjustment of the holy relics"

It seems that the danger is really over.

"King of Giants"

The sound that came out of my mouth was still a little shaky.

"Uh-huh——?"

Impatience can be heard in the sound of the stone vibrating.

"Can you tell me why humans aren't welcome here?"

"Hmph, haha, hahaha"

The giant laughed, but not as if he was laughing at me, not at humans, but at himself.

"If you two survive, I'll tell you why"

Survive?

I had a bad feeling.

"That...... Please ...... for a moment."

Before I could finish my sentence, the giant's arm pointed at us, so fast that the simple act of it set off a violent wind that nearly knocked Elle and me to the ground.

Bang!

It was as if someone had smashed the melon seeds in the head, and there was a violent tremor.

And then I saw -

Elle and I were surrounded by a myriad of illusory lights, some bright red, some gray-white, connected in curves like tree trunks, like lightning, but so soft......

Ooh...... Me and Ellie's souls.

Although I had no idea what kind of magic was the cause, I was able to know that somehow, Ellie's souls and I were unfolded as if we were looking at them under a microscope.

Click, click.

The giant's arms protruded with several sharp edges, as nimble as fingers, and Brevington was constantly correcting the effects of magic, and the light around us changed with it.

Like galaxies in the universe entangled, like nebulae blended with each other, as bright as the Milky Way, and as blazing as the sun.

It's incredible how the Slow Giants could do something that even the witches of Perry Hill couldn't do.

"They're not as versatile as you think, and we're not as dull as you think"

The King of Giants spoke suddenly, as if he could see what I was thinking.

'The little ghost is out of trouble, poof, clam, clam'

The little one laughed at me at the soul link, and at the same time I could see that on the pattern of our soul that had expanded, small red bright spots were drifting from a blazing red light to the gray lines.

I see, the giant was able to see what I was thinking, because my soul and my mind had been spread out like a book for people to read.

I didn't expect the giant to have such powerful magic.

"It's just about the 'sleeping volcano'"

While Brixington was concentrating on manipulating his magic, he seemed to have the leisure to chat with us.

"Although it is only an abstract and illusory mountain, as long as it is closely connected to the Aurora Continent, any form of land is under our control, so we are called giants, so I am the king of the cliffs."

I don't know why, but this confident and powerful speech from Brixington won my respect in an instant.

Whoosh –

The giant's magic was still expanding, and the patterns around us began to deepen, as if diving from the sea, getting lower and darker.

In turn, what appears to us is a blurry picture, a world covered in volcanic ash, and we can feel the heat emitted by this pattern, making the surrounding air flee in fear and make the white canyon shiver.

The giant involuntarily lifted himself slightly, as if he was touching something that disgusted him so much.

"That's it......"

The giant's hand deftly touched the picture around us, and the rock formations began to shake, the air began to freeze, and the light began to move away from us.

Baking –

The heat emitted from the thick ash caused me to evaporate into ash in an instant, and under the bombardment of this energy, the pattern began to writhe, and the bright red lava began to fill the surroundings.

Hiss——!

I can even hear the sound of my brain being baked!

This energy...... Come from...... Scorched Earth Elf!

The flames and lava overwhelmed me, and the infinite magic was as vast as the sea, but the sea was rolling, the sea was boiling, and the heat was roaring like the devil of the apocalypse.

Just like the name of the elf, my world was scorched in an instant.
