All around, storms raged, and giant trees twisted.

A terrifying atmosphere filled the room, constantly oppressing Mu En's nerves.

They were able to suppress these people before, but through some small tricks.

After all, there is an insurmountable natural moat between the third and fourth ranks.

But now, they probably won't give themselves such a chance again.

In addition, there is an unfathomable priest.

No matter how you look at it, this is a real hopeless situation.

"You've got no escape, Moon Campbell."

The priest said pitifully:

"I admit that you are excellent, but you made a wrong choice. If you join forces with that young lady, maybe you can cause us a little trouble.

But now, without the blessing of that lady's holy light, how can you bridge the gap in strength between us? "

"That's that sentence, how do you know if you don't try?"

Mu En smiled: "Maybe I'm the type who is stronger in fighting alone?"

Mu En moved her arms more and more, as if those two limbs that were on the verge of collapse were recovering at an extremely fast speed under the promotion of some kind of force.

There was fire in his eyes, but no one noticed.

"Courage is commendable... I don't know if I really have that confidence, or if I just delay time to save my companions, but...

The priest's expression suddenly became meaningful:

"No matter what the possibility is, do you really think she can escape?"

"Ok?"

Mu En frowned, looked around, seemed to find something, and suddenly realized:

"So that's how it is... Is this your instruction?"

"Do not."

The priest smiled brightly, as if enjoying the opening of a grand performance:

"I just let the seed you planted with your own hands...take root and sprout."

"Really."

But Mu En just shrugged casually, and smiled lightly as if not worried:

"I think it's because you think too much."

……

……

In the dark forest, the girl kept running.

She looks delicate and fragile, with a thin figure, but her chest is extraordinarily majestic and majestic, which seems to add some difficulty to her running.

But under the blessing of the Holy Light, her speed is exceptionally fast.

Almost to the point where an afterimage appeared, almost to... When she finally saw the light behind the dense forest in the distance, her consciousness finally returned to her physical body.

"Is that...the exit from the forest?"

Liya stopped in her tracks, her chest rising and falling as she gasped, staring blankly into the distance.

That light, how dazzling, how warm.

For a person who has been wandering in darkness for a long time, that light is like an oasis in the desert, full of temptations.

The footsteps stopped, and moved unconsciously again.

That's right, that was the exit, and based on the distance, at her speed, it would probably take less than half an hour to leave the forest.

Leave this forest full of poisonous insects, beasts and death.

That's right.

Just move forward.

As long as you get out of this forest, everything will be back to normal.

She can continue to go to the Holy City, can participate in that important ceremony, and with Ariel's help, can compete for the honorable title of saintess.

That's right, everything went according to plan and nothing unexpected happened.

if only……

"Ah-"

The ear-piercing cry of crows awakened the girl with dull eyes. She trembled all over, looking at the light in the distance, her advancing feet suddenly stopped, and then... fell limp.

"What the hell am I doing?"

He lowered his head, his fingers sinking deep into the mud mixed with rotting leaves.

The girl who always likes cleanliness is completely unaware of this filth.

"I actually... really escaped?"

Abandoning that guy, the guy who saved me so many times, helped me so many times, and warmed me so many times... ran away alone?

How can I……

"No... not right."

"He told me to go first. He said he would catch up. He said he had a way."

【Trust me, just like I believe in you. 】

Mu En's words resounded in the girl's mind, making her not only smile happily.

"That's right...that's what he said."

"I just have to trust him."

"believe him……"

"Believe……"

The ridiculousness only appeared for a moment, and the girl lowered her head again, weeping.

"How is it possible to believe that?"

Just like when we met in a restaurant.

It was like being in a carriage.

There are some reasonable words in his mouth, but as long as he thinks carefully, those words that sound extremely equal, what needs a musician, what bets, in fact, these are all lies made by that guy...to help himself.

That's right, how are you used to using these white lies to me, so who knows that what you said this time... is just to save me, deliberately tricking me?

After all, the strength gap between the two sides is visible to the naked eye.

He must be dangerous.

"At a time like this, I should..."

"By the way, the most sensible thing to do at this time is to go out and ask for help."

"As long as you can find help quickly, Mr. Pink Bear, or the gentleman invited by Mu En, as long as you find them in time..."

The light in Liya's eyes lit up again, but that light also quickly went out.

"Just find them in time..."

Can……

How can it be in time.

At my own speed, it will take at least half an hour to completely walk out of this forest, even if Pink Bear and the very powerful gentleman invited by Mu En happen to be waiting for me outside at that time...

But the crown wearer can't enter the forest, and if he wants to save Mu En, he still has to mobilize people.

How much time does it take to go back and forth?

Can Mu En hold on?

He is so strong, it only lasts for an hour or two, if he perseveres, he can...

Of course I can't hold on.

How could this life-and-death battle be delayed for so long?

"So...it's too late."

Liya murmured:

"This way of life is very close to me, but to him... it is extremely far away."

That is to say...

at this very moment.

In this huge world, among countless people.

able to help him.

then only...

I.

"but……"

Liya curled up, clasped her shoulders with her hands, and trembled uncontrollably:

"But what can I do?"

if……

Ariel is fine.

If it was her, she would definitely be able to help Mu En get out of this crisis.

But, that person...is me.

But I am so useless.

so cowardly.

For a long time, he would only hide behind Ariel, burying his head in hard work.

Watch Ariel fight, watch Ariel go through life and death, watch Ariel solve all troubles like a hero.

I just need to follow her and keep moving forward.

Like a parasite, nothing can be done without Ariel.

Can't do anything.

"Hahaha……"

Liya seemed to be crying and smiling, looking at her hands in confusion, her trembling hands.

At this moment, the dense holy light on her body flickered on and off just like her shaky state of mind at the moment.

"Goddess... what should I do?"

Liya closed her eyes and prayed to the goddess:

"Please tell me, is a useless person like me, a timid person, and a weak person really qualified...to become a saint?"

"People like me, really..."

【certainly. 】

As always, best prayers.

However, what appeared in his mind was not the benevolent figure of the goddess.

But...

[Liya is so powerful, if I directly appoint the saint, I will definitely choose Liya. 】

【You can do it for sure. 】
