The blood was boiling all over his body, and it was only at this moment that Troy knew that for the first time he had truly experienced where those scarlet magical elements came from. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Driven by feelings of sadness, anger, or when faced with life-and-death problems, the magical elements constructed by the boy's blood will transform into scarlet tentacles that can transform into various forms, attacking and defending, making him instantly among the first-class masters, defeating those enemies who originally had a huge difference in strength.

Advancing and retreating with ease, attacking and defending, these bloody tentacles are both blades and armor, and in addition to that, it seems to have the ability to quickly restore the boy's body even if it is injured.

But what is it? This is a problem that has plagued the Lance team for a long time, and after meeting the "Daughter of God", through her erudition, the boy finally understands the "truth" of these scarlet bloody tentacles.

"Forbidden bloodline, modern researchers like to call it that. ”

His consciousness had been dyed crimson with murderous intent, and Troy recalled the words of the Daughter of God that were full of holiness, and the next second he had already passed it.

He felt as if he was embarking on a path from which he would never turn back.

The path to one's own "roots".

――Who am I?

The scattered consciousness seems to ask "itself" again, but what is it?

Under his feet was the road paved with a red river of blood, and on both sides were nameless white bone graves, the young man who was moving forward in the chaotic blood-colored storm looked around indifferently, and he was not at all intimidated by the sights on both sides, and he resolutely moved forward, and the questions in his ears that he didn't know who were were becoming more and more inaudible.

"Where is Lance? This should be the way he should go. ”

Initially, such a question could have been conceived, but Troy, who was unaware of Lance's existence, could not find anyone to ask the question.

-- Where is my way?

The last question in his ears made Troy a little dazed, and in a trance, the boy stopped and set his eyes on the end of the distant road, where the dark sun stood.

"That's where you belong. ”

Suddenly, a familiar voice spoke.

A battle that has made the "calamity-ridden" bar of "Mint and Wheat" has just ended, and now, the crowd who have not had time to "clean up the battlefield" has to continue to welcome another "carnival".

Fortunately, this "enemy" who "indiscriminately" was still "benevolent", and the killing aura coming from a considerable distance gave everyone relatively sufficient time to prepare.

Who was the person who came, and why did he have such a strange aura of magic tainted by a deep bloody aura?

What was his purpose? Was he targeting the tavern, or was he targeting someone who was here at the moment, or was he not having any goal but simply wanted to kill and destroy?

All of this will have to wait for the three men to subdue them.

Most of the onlookers thought so, and what happened next made their eyes widen and they couldn't digest the surprise.

What the hell just happened?

By the time everyone reacted, the "battle" seemed to be over.

......

......

Time goes back to the moment when Elaine, a mage who was considered by Sack to be a master of protective magic, came back to her senses in a daze, and bit down on her steadfast promise, the next moment when several protective magic spells were formed, the female magician who was engrossed suddenly felt unprecedented pressure.

He's coming!

In an instant, a red light burst out in front of her eyes, and in the second that was cut into dozens of equal parts, Elaine, who had never realized that her perception ability was so strong, clearly noticed the short moment when "he" suddenly attacked.

"Bang-"

As he approached little by little, the pressure felt by the limbs and bones became more and more intense, and the ominous magical aura could not be resisted by any protective magic, and the closer the person came, the more painful the aura that would immediately remind people of blood and death forced Elaine, who had not even been able to make up her mind to hurt someone, to feel more and more painful.

But, all along, the sorceress, who was perhaps seen as strong by anyone, never had the idea of backing down.

Not wanting to hurt others is her "compassion", and compassion does not mean weakness of will. In fact, the blood flowing in Elaine's body, who was born in a famous magical family, not only gave her a strong understanding of magic and magic, but also allowed her to maintain that "proud bone" in the face of the threat of death.

"-I'm defeated!"

The course of events took a sharp turn unexpectedly, and it was too late to realize that his efforts had been in vain. The man wrapped in a strong and brilliant red - it must have been a human - broke through the several layers of defensive magic that Elaine had planted in an instant, and to be precise, it didn't work in front of him at all!

"Why? The protective magic I set up...... Has it been 'rewritten'? No...... It should have been 'assimilated' and then 'eliminated', right?

I wanted to shout out my doubts and grievances loudly, but at this moment, Elaine knew very well that she couldn't do it.

For the trembling of instinctive fear was about to break through her inhibition, and a thought that made her feel extremely "humiliated" expanded at the same time without limit, and finally occupied all her thoughts:

"Luckily, he wasn't targeting me. ”

......

......

......

"Hmph, it's a good time!"

Seeing that the "first line of defense" laid by Elaine was easily broken, Caroline's nerves, which had been paralyzed for most of the time, instantly sobered up under the stimulation of the "strong enemy", and the warrior's instinct to desire her own breakthrough and fight with the strong made her body, which was also eroded by alcohol, suddenly return to its usual state.

"There!

Just as the ghostly red figure passed by Elaine's side, the "heavy pressure" body that was still squinting its eyes just now suddenly erupted with a terrifying momentum no less than that of the other party. Unlike Elaine, who lacked actual combat experience, her amazing talent and keen senses tempered by the training of thousands of fierce battles allowed her to judge the trajectory of the opponent's progress without much effort.

Inhaling and adjusting her body shape, her strong arms became more powerful at this moment, and the power of the body's strengthening magic burst out at one point, Caroline's mouth put her signature smug smile on the corner of her mouth, and the arm that swung forward suddenly was in the air.
