The female devils I saved came to my door

"Well, she's a girl."

"Teacher...when did you meet this female dragon?"

"Just over 900 years ago, when I left the Western Continent and went to the Dark Territory." After Charles finished speaking, he thought for a moment and added: "She was the one I had to deal with in the second mission assigned to me by the system. people.

"I originally planned to find an opportunity to tell you about Ella again, but it seems I don't need to now."

"Then, this, uh, Miss Erla..." Hilna glanced at the giant dragon that was staring at them closely - the guy's huge dragon head alone was as big as a hill, and it was With huge eyes like the sun and moon staring up at him, anyone would feel instinctive fear - and continue to ask: "Why are you here?"

"It should, maybe... it's the same reason why you came to me."

As soon as he finished speaking, the giant dragon suddenly made another move.interrupted their conversation.

Her extremely huge body was swimming in the sky. After hanging her dragon head, she slowly poked her head under the castle where Charles was, and lifted up the castle that was suspended in the sky together with the foundation. She was shining with golden light. The huge dragon horns firmly stuck on the boulder where the castle was located.

Then, she let out a long low roar for the third time, dispelling the dark clouds in the sky, and like a train about to start, she raised her dragon head and flew towards the east.

The sudden acceleration caused the entire castle to shake violently.

Wuming's face turned pale: "Master Charles, this is..."

"I understand...she wants to take me to the East, to her hometown." Ciel understood the meaning of Eramatron's roar: "She has been waiting for this day for a long time, so she just planned to take our entire Take your accommodation with you."

The residents on the island had long been alarmed by the noise.They stood outside the house, looking in astonishment at the huge body of the mythical monster in the sky.

Watching the giant dragon uproot the castle on the west side of the island, and then disappeared into the horizon.

If it weren't for the giant dragon Elamat's huge body streaking across the sky, leaving behind a colorful stream of light that was even more magnificent and dazzling than the aurora, no one would have believed what they saw today.

She wants to take Ciel and others across half of the sky to her hometown in the Dark Realm.

The fertile eastern land that once sheltered the expelled heretics and demi-humans, allowing them to survive and thrive.

————****————

At that time, after the system informed Ciel of his second mission, he set off.

No extra reasons are needed.He also wanted to see what kind of mission this weird system, which always deliberately concealed its identity and seemed to symbolize destiny, would assign him.

He will not deliberately act against it because he was deliberately induced and deceived by the system before, but he also does not intend to act in full compliance with its instructions.

He prefers to rely on reason to discern its intentions and make choices that truly come from his heart.

In this way, he set foot on the road to the east.

He didn't bring anything except a few weapons made by a random blacksmith.

Passing through the eastern border of the empire established by Lovna, heading further west and south.There were fewer and fewer villages and towns along the way, and the settlements became sparser and sparse. Until the end of the western continent, he saw an abandoned harbor and a wasteland.

There is a group of fishermen who live a hard life here, and in their village there is an old priest who is a devout believer in the Holy Religion - this priest has been teaching fishermen here and spreading the teachings of Heavenly Father for more than half a century.He didn't even know that the last pope of the Eternal Holy See had died more than 20 years ago.

He also thought that Saint Ann IV was still sitting in the great holy city, guiding believers everywhere.

It seems that this priest is the most marginalized civilized person in the Western Continent.

The priest regarded Ciel, who was about to cross the sea to the dark realm, as a fanatical believer who was not very clear-minded.After trying to retain him to no avail, he reluctantly agreed to sell a fishing boat to Ciel, allowing him to cross the strait and go to the cursed dark realm in the east.

The dilapidated fishing boat almost collapsed in the churning tide, but Charles still set foot on the eastern continent known as the Dark Territory.

He landed on a beach with almost no foothold and stepped onto the dark brown land covered with jagged and strange rocks.After simply packing his bags, he headed towards the east under the urging of the system and the guidance of the stars.

What lay before him was the boundless desert Gobi.

There is almost no grass growing on the land full of salt and alkaline, and the occasional wind is mixed with rough gravel. The unknown curse seems to be integrated into every puff of air, making people's hands and feet feel sore and numb, and they are physically and mentally exhausted.

At this time, the remaining Nether magic power in his body was also slightly suppressed, and even the most basic elemental magic was difficult to cast at this time.

The Dark Realm, the magic that curses all Heavenly Father.

In this wasteland, the colors are monotonous.When the sun is high in the sky, it is a bloody reddish brown, and when night falls, it is a dead, pure black.There is no variety, and the monotony can drive people crazy.

Every time he conquered a towering hill with his legs, he was greeted by more and more endless hills.

Sometimes, he would see ruins almost buried in the sand in the rolling desert.There are also some stone tablets and rusted weapons with only a little bit exposed, as well as bones that are already as brittle as cardboard.

These are the ruins of the demihuman cities that lived here in the past. The skeletons and tombstones may belong to them, or they may be leftovers from the Eastern Expedition of the Eternal Holy Religion that expedition here. However, it is all history.

Charles continued to move forward, and the system in his ears kept giving him useless encouragement: "Come on, keep going, we'll be there in a month or two, you don't have to hesitate, you don't need to eat now, just concentrate on your journey. , find those alien species, and then deal with that troublesome guy, the mission is complete..."

Ciel: "I would rather you be silent like you were in the past few decades than chattering now. Leave me alone."

"Okay, whatever you want."

…………

He travels like a black boat through this wasteland that looks like a frozen ocean. The footprints he leaves behind will soon be buried. However, the positions of the stars hanging high do not seem to have changed at all, and the surrounding scene is still desolate. Xiao defeated.

Until he saw the towering obelisk standing on a hillside.

The obelisk is not made of stone or sand.The material it was made of seemed to be some kind of metal, and it even reflected the light of oil paint under the sunlight, as if it had just been cast.

When Charles got closer, he noticed that the surface of this obelisk, which was nearly two people tall, had a texture like dragon scales. The hillside next to the obelisk was not just soil, but an entrenched hillside covered with sand. keel.

On that obelisk, the holy emblem symbolizing the Heavenly Father was engraved, and the emblem and text carrying blessings were not etched by the wind and sand, and were still complete and clear.

On the four sides of the inscription, the time and reason for the inscription's casting and the name of the caster are engraved.

"The Dark Territory Expeditionary Force, in the year... of the Holy Calendar, killed the brown dragon here, as evidenced by this obelisk made of dragon scales... The list of the expeditionary force... Ether Monroe?"

He realized that this was the monument left here by his father-in-law during his last dark expedition more than 150 years ago.Before Catlin passed away and he was still working in the Holy See, he mentioned this matter in a chat with Monroe.

At that time, his father-in-law expressed doubts - Monroe felt at that time that the alien demi-humans would never become extinct like this, and there must still be their settlements further east, so he was eager to continue exploring eastward.

However, many warriors in the team were seriously injured and seriously lacked supplies. They all advised the sword master to give up his futile efforts. Killing the dragon was already a huge achievement, and there was no need to force other results.

Therefore, Monroe had no choice but to give up his plan to continue eastward and choose to return.

This also announced the end of the last Dark Realm expedition.

This is the boundary of the Western Continent’s exploration of the East. Beyond that, there is an area that no one has ever set foot on.

He felt a lot more inspired, so he took a step and crossed the boundary set by this obelisk.

Continue heading east.

A few weeks later, Charles felt that he was walking uphill, as if he were climbing over a high plateau.

Finally, he reached the top of the terrain.Standing at a high place, he finally saw colors other than reddish brown and deep black in the dark realm. He saw the snow-capped mountains beside the skyline, and saw the rushing streams and rivers passing through the fertile land, nourishing the lush fertile fields. .

He saw demihumans grazing and farming.
