The guards’s interesting conversation was no longer audible. At some point, Ser and Reina had moved far away from where the carriage was. “This way.” Only after they had gone far enough to feel it was safe even to talk did Ser whisper. He gestured for Reina, who was following behind him, and walked toward where the mountain ridge came into view. The mountain path was too rough to walk on barefoot, but he tore his clothes and wrapped the fabric tightly around his feet as he climbed. They…-

“You…!” Reina was so shocked that she shouted. At that moment, the sound of stone hitting something echoed outside the carriage. Ser didn’t miss the opportunity. He sent a red energy into the door handle and muttered. A strange pattern rose in the air. It was the spell code of the barrier. “You were a mage?” “…Keep your voice down.” Ser scolded her and started at the code. When he brushed it with his fingertip, the code scattered like smoke. Over the blurred space, he began…

Harto, who had been squirming, jumped up and immediately searched for Zed. But the cramped space barely large enough for his own body was blocked off by a wall of opaque glass. “Zed… Zed…” Harto anxiously crawled across the floor, groping forward as he searched for him. “U… ugh…” His whole body trembled. In his head, all he could see was Zed lying in the desert, covered in blood. “W, where… is this…?” After a long while, Harto managed to calm his breathing and…

[At the end of the cycle of war and conquest, a kingdom soaked in blood will build its own grave. You burned the creations of the divine, and you buried the cries of beasts under silence. You offered red essence on an altar built with blood, and prosperity will soon turn into the seed of a curse. On the day the flower plucked from the land of purification withers, a single radiant light will cut through the darkness. When the wind blowing from the north becomes a blade and it grazes the…

‘What should I do… I can’t use my strength properly…’ Harto tried to create a sand barrier to help Zed, but before it could even take form, the wind scattered it or the sand collapsed. His chest tightened more and more. It seemed that he had already reached his limit from the battle the night before. Whoosh! At that moment, Draik swung his long tail through the air again. “…Ugh!” “Zed!” Zed barely avoided the strike, but one of his knees was torn open and blood…

Whoooo. When their swords clashed, a gust of sand rose. As the sound of grains scraping against metal echoed, Draik leaped into the air. Clang! Instead of charging straight ahead as Zed expected, Draik landed on the shafts of the spears stuck all around. He moved across them as if performing acrobatics, and then used the recoil of a bending spear to launch himself toward Zed. The crash of steel meeting steel split the dry air. Sand scattered in every direction from the impact between the…

“Zed can make elixirs. How do you make them?” At the innocent question, Zed smiled softly. “Well. I just… decide to do it?” “You just decide to do it?” “Yes, I’ve been like that since I was born.” “Since you were born? Wow, that’s amazing! Zed, you’re really amazing. You know so much, you fight well, you make elixirs, and when you put your hand on someone’s head, you can even see what you want to see…” He stopped. While Harto was murmuring to himself…

Harto was startled by Allen’s words and quickly shook his head. “N-no. Something just got in my eye.” “Hmm? Maybe, but it’s not your eye. You’ve got something on your face.” There was a black smudge near his cheek, probably from touching his face with the hand that was holding the potato. “Really? Where?” Harto gasped and moved to rub his cheek with the back of his hand, but Allen looked unconcerned. “Well, you can wash it off easily with your ability.” “Now…

Gulp. Unlike what he had feared, Harto was relieved when he heard the sound of the medicine sliding down Zed’s throat. But just in case, he kept his lips against Zed’s and held his neck tightly. “Harto…” A low voice brushed his ear, calling his name. Harto immediately pulled his lips away and looked at Zed’s face. “Zed…? Are, you… ha, ha… are you alright? Ha, ha…” Maybe he had focused too much on the kiss. Harto spoke between rough breaths. In contrast, Zed looked…

Harto changed into human form to check if his companions were safe. Allen and Leon were still lying inside the sand cocoons, but fortunately, both of them were breathing properly. Swish. Zed seemed to have regained his senses and tore open the cracked sand cocoon himself to come out. “Zed…!” Harto ran toward him. He checked all over to see if Zed was hurt, then let out a sigh of relief. “Thank goodness… I thought it was going to be serious.” When Harto lifted his head and…
