"Oh...it's like being reborn, so comfortable..."

Under the starry night, Mu Hantian enjoyed the fun of taking an open-air bath alone.

This is not a hot spring, but a pool surrounded by rocks, and then ask the fire spirit to help to heat the bath water. Because the water in the sanctuary has the effect of soothing fatigue, soaking in the clear water feels particularly comfortable.

Whoops——At this moment, a sound of splashing water suddenly came from behind.

"what?"

Mu Hantian's heart was shocked, and he looked back to see—

On the other side of the rock, where the water vapor permeated and transpired, a petite figure could vaguely be seen.

"Is it cold weather?"

"Mira?"

"Yes." Mira responded.

"This is my dedicated men's bath, and the women's bath is on the other side of the cliff."

"I haven't heard of this."

"Sorry, maybe it's because I didn't explain it to you... I'm ready to leave. You can use it here."

When Mu Hantian hurriedly wanted to get up and leave the bath...

"Han Tian, ​​wait a moment."

Mila stopped immediately.

"I have something to tell you."

"Speaking here?"

"Yes, because no one else will come here."

It turns out that Claire and the others will not come to the men's bath without any problems. In other words, this is a secret that no one else wants to hear.

Mu Hantian soaked his body in the hot water again.

Mira, who was wrapped in a white bath towel, walked slowly from the thin steam emanating from the bath.

The petite and slender body, matched with the dark brown hair that was wet against the cheeks, created an unimaginable sensational atmosphere emanating from a little girl who was only thirteen years old.

Seeing her getting closer and closer, Mu Hantian's heart beat a little faster, so he quickly turned his eyes away.

"Well, what are you trying to tell me?"

"What I want to say is about my 'eyes', and I hope to be honest with you first."

Mira's amber left eye reflected light in the night.

"This eye is the value of my existence and the reason why I was raised as a prop."

"Well, that's - 'Evil Sealing Eye', right?"

"So you... already knew about it?" Mira cried out in surprise.

"No, I just guessed."

Demon Sealing Eyes - In a family that inherits the blood of the elf, very few children have this kind of special eye at birth.

It is also a very rare elf ore.

Since there are endless examples of spirits with powerful powers being sealed in the eyes of the demons, people who hold such eyes are often regarded as dangerous and persecuted; otherwise, they are reduced to weapons used by the powerful - there is no other choice.

No matter which side she was on, the fate of the thirteen-year-old girl in front of her was cruel and unimaginable.

The reason why Mu Hantian knew about the little-known things like 'Evil Sealing Eye' was because of a story that Greyworth told him.

The protagonist of the story is also a girl. The girl's final outcome is to be used as a weapon, giving away her precious young life in vain.

"When I was young, my parents sold me to the Knights of the Duchy of Russell because they were afraid that this 'eye' would bring disaster; there, I was used as a weapon to win the 'Sword Dance Festival'. received all kinds of training.”

Mi Ra stared blankly at Mu Hantian and said, "In order for me to smoothly control the spirit sealed in the 'eye' and keep it in a stable state, they took anger, sadness, joy -- those unnecessary emotions out of me. taken away."

"Really... there are such people everywhere." Mu Hantian smiled bitterly.

"By the way, why are you telling me this?"

"Because--I lied to you." Mila squeezed out this sentence sadly.

"What's the meaning?"

"The elf sealed in my 'eyes' - the tyrannical elf 'Holy King's Division' is a tactical military elf."

"What, tactical elf!"

Tactical Level - Among the military elves, it is a very difficult elves to control. If you want to use it smoothly, you must use a specially trained group.

Only then did Mu Hantian suddenly realize.

"So that's the case... The members of the 'Lie Po Division' are also the team responsible for using that military elf."

"Yes, they are the team that was recruited to use my props; without the 'Lie Po Division', they would not be able to use the elves in the eyes of Feng Mo."

In other words... Mira alone can't derive the power of the elf.

"It's true that I said that I have a spirit with holy attributes... However, I can't use its power."

"You said you lied to me, but that's what you meant."

If you make an alliance with Mira, who uses holy spirits, you can gain the upper hand against Nebander Roja—

This is the exchange benefit she proposed to us when negotiating alliance matters; now, since that elf cannot be used, it is tantamount to completely subverting the strategy originally formulated by Mu Hantian and others.

"I'm sorry, because I have to win this 'Sword Dance Festival' no matter what, so I made this decision; this is the mission given to me by the country - I was nurtured as a prop."

After the 'Broken Division' collapsed, she still struggled to win after losing everything.

Because only winning can prove the value of Mira Pascher's life.

"It doesn't matter, because that's how you fight." Mu Hantian put his hand on Mila's head gently.

"cold day?"

"This alliance is a victory you won on your own strength, you should be proud." Mu Hantian gently stroked Mila's dark brown hair.

Suddenly... Mu Hantian heard a movement in his ear. It was the sound of the barrier that Fianna had constructed being destroyed.

………………

Not far away, a group of dark shadows quietly appeared in the quiet forest where the night was low.

It was Nebander Roja, a black knight with a sinister and ominous aura all over his body.

After absorbing the divine power of countless elf envoys, now the person who embodied the demon king's mind... has become a veritable monster.

………………

The elves living in the forest sensed the arrival of the intruder, and they were in constant commotion.

"Cold sky?" Mira asked worriedly, frowning.

"Yeah. This breath... it's that guy." Mu Hantian replied succinctly.

Who is the opponent who is about to visit - without even thinking about it.

"Mila, do me a favor... Run to find Claire and the others right away."

Mu Hantian quickly changed into his uniform and swung up his double swords that were still in sleep mode.

"What about you, Han Tian?"

"Leave that guy to me."

"Do you want to fight against that Nirvana Roja with your own strength?"

"Go--!"

Mira nodded, and then immediately ran off to the tent camp.
