[How many days has this been?]

Alice lay on the soft bed, staring at the ceiling and thinking. ～.

[I don't want to do anything.] 】

She has maintained this mood since she returned, and the death of her parents has made her lose her motivation.

As a descendant of the dragon's blood, you are obligated to free your parents from that cursed body. 】

The words that Babafen had said to her when she came back rang in her ears.

"I'm sorry, but I'm still ...... I can't do it. ”

Alice held out a hand and peerlessly looked at the wood grain on the ceiling through the gap between her fingers.

Even if he knew that the monster was no longer his former parents, it was still too reluctant for her to swing a weapon at the other party.

"Mistress Alice. ”

There was a knock at the door.

"What's the matter? If it's comfort, then forget it, don't worry, I don't care. ”

Since she returned, she had heard too many comforting words, but they did not fill the void in her heart.

"No...... Although everyone in the elves wanted Mistress Alice to cheer up, they are here today because Mistress Babafen has found Mistress Enoya's bow. ”

The news from outside the door made Alice's eyes widen.

"Where!?Take me there!!"

In a breath, the dragon girl had already come to the door, pressed her hands on the shoulders of the elves who came to report the news, and said loudly.

"Yes...... It's ......"

The other party obviously didn't expect Alice to have such a big reaction. But he immediately led her to a small square.

There, Alice sees the dragon Babafen and many elves.

They formed a circle. Together, they look at one thing in the center.

Seeing Alice coming, the people got out of the way, and the maiden came to the center without any hindrance, where a huge bow lay down.

For the king dragon in the sky, the wings and back are its weak points, because neither the claws nor the dragon's breath can take care of that dead end.

Once the enemy has taken a high place. This will create an extremely unfavorable situation.

And this big bow was tailor-made by the dragon knight Enoya to protect her lover's back, and the heroic female knight stood on the dragon's back. Shoot your bow and arrows and snipe at an enemy who is trying to occupy the high ground, or rain countless arrows on the earth and combine with the dragon's breath to inflict a devastating blow.

Nowadays, however. Whether it's a dragon. The knights were gone, and only the bow was left, lying alone on the ground.

"Mom's ......"

Alice stepped forward and took the weapon in her arms.

The bow and arrow should have been cold, but it was so warm, and the only relic that held her mother's thoughts was like a warm current, dispelling the coldness in Alice's heart.

"Take it and use it to protect your family. Alice. ”

"Babafin ......"

Alice turned her head and saw a scarred dragon. Without the power of little Lori, even dragons have no way to resist the druids who are sheltered by Chaos.

However, even so, Babafen went into the depths of the Elven Forest to find proof that her mother and father had fought.

"I ......"

Remembering the black alien figure, a foreign object born from the remains of his mother and father.

"I ......"

Did you really do it?, Alice asked herself.

"I ......"

However, the bow in his arms had already told himself the answer.

She jerked to her feet, drew an arrow from the waist of the elf who was with her, and pointed her bow and arrow to the sky.

"Mommy, Mommy, I'll give you freedom—!!"

The arrows whizzed, and Alice flew high with her determination......

It's a blue courtyard.

The girl lies quietly in it, like a sleeping beauty in a fairy tale.

However, on the periphery of this courtyard, there is an ominous shadow, the shadow has a python-like body and head, but on both sides of the body grow rows of insect feet, like a giant centipede, and grow wings, like the ancient mythological Quetzalcoatl God.

Dark shadows coiled the entire courtyard, and countless feet made a tooth-aching sound on the azure barrier.

It gnawed at it with its huge mouth, as if it wanted to gnaw through the courtyard and eat the maiden sleeping inside.

The girl didn't know anything about it, she still lay quietly, quietly.

Far away, there were sounds of all kinds.

Even Melty's blood can't cure my sister!]

The sweet and somewhat delicate voice brought rose-colored raindrops, wanting to nourish the whole courtyard and turn into a source of life to awaken the girl who was sleeping inside.

However, it was blocked by the black shadow.

[Isn't the mermaid's secret technique useless?, then let me try again, I have regained my original form and strength, and I may be able to dispel the curse left by Yuhime.] 】

A more mature voice was heard, and then, an emerald green light struck from afar, carrying infinite vitality and vitality.

The huge shadow immediately collided head-on, and the power of magic collided violently with the black curse, and the two sides did not give in to each other. Eventually, the green glow faded and slowly dissipated.

[No, healing and dispelling curses is not my mage's specialty after all, if only the holy woman who was with me and the brave was still there. 】

The voice came again with a hint of exhaustion.

[Eve, sure enough, this can only be handed over to you.

Everyone, come out with me. 】

[Please, my dear sister, please save Leah.] 】

[Melti's sister asked Sister Eve.] 】

[Well, leave it to me.] 】

Countless words are intertwined, revealing warmth and care.

Then, a qiē returned to calm again.

I don't know how long it took, but the girl was still asleep, and the terrible shadow was still gnawing at the courtyard.

Suddenly, there was a light in the distance.

It was a gentle, yet powerful light.

The shadows roared and met the other.

The light did not flinch, and continued to move forward step by step against the shadows with tenacious and unwilling to admit defeat.

Eventually, it broke through the obstruction and turned into a small ball of light that landed inside the courtyard.

The light fell to the ground and dissipated, and there was a warm-looking girl, with blond hair and blue eyes, looking very similar to the girl lying in the courtyard.

The girl knelt on the ground, stretched out her hand, and took the girl lying on the ground in her arms.

So, a gentle voice came from the ears of the sleeping girl.

"Leah. ”

[Yes.] 】

She wanted to open her mouth, but she couldn't do it anyway, so she could only reply silently in her heart.

"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry to have this happen to you. ”

[It's nothing. 】

"I know, you must be hating me. ”

[What are you talking about?, I don't hate you at all.] 】

"Because I forcibly brought you into this world. ”

[Although it was a little sad at first, I also met a lot of new friends and encountered a lot of interesting things, so I'll forgive you. 】

"Now, you have been injured so badly. ”

[It's okay, because, at least let you and Hanufain come back safely.]

Hee-hee, so I think it's earned. 】

"Uh......h You must be thinking that this is actually earned. ”

[Ahh

"Really, wouldn't I be more ...... that way I'm even more sad......"

[Ahh......h No, don't cry, or ...... Otherwise, I'll cry to you!]

"Leah...... Leah...... Leah ......"

[Evette ......]

"At the very least, then, let me ......"

【Woo !?】

Suddenly, my lips were covered in a soft touch.

The girl kissed the girl, as if she wanted to integrate all her feelings into it.

Then, that kiss turned into a bridge of light, connecting the two together.

As if giving everything she had to the other party, the girl's figure began to blur until it disappeared.

Then, she was still asleep, and lay quietly in the courtyard. (To be continued......)
