Chapter 386
[ Episode 386. Secret of Ilias]
The trolls usually went around one by one.
Thanks to this, Nebro was able to handle it alone before others stepped forward.
‘Why doesn’t mana run out?’
One question was Nebro’s mana amount.
I fully understood that genius, but in the case of mana, it was an element that required time unless it was an unusual case like me.
‘Clearly Nebro’s mana was insignificant.’
When he first became a parasite on his body, it was a really small amount of mana. However, the amount of mana that would be normal even if he used the highest level of magic before he
knew it. Anyway, it was a fraudulent character.
“30.”
Hunting took place over a long period of time. The forest was vaster than expected, and finding the troll was a job in itself, so it seemed to take almost two months.
“Finally got it all together. If you had gone to Shaiya at the time to collect this, you would have arrived already.”
Freyr grumbled and swung his sword without tension. My teaching continued even after I entered this forest, but unlike her appearance, she took up training with a serious attitude.
“You have to go quickly.”
Ilias promptly urged. Then, Freyr’s expression changed in a bad way.
“You were the one who asked me to do this in the first place. But are you in a hurry now?”
“That’s not it.”
Ilias shook his head with a serious face.
But nothing more was said.
What I felt while watching Ilias during my last trip was that it was strangely strange. As if hiding something…….
‘It’s like me.’
Yes, if I had to compare it, it was similar to me.
I was a person who had a lot to hide, so I often showed that kind of attitude when dealing with people around me.
“Me me! Now that this is over, let’s go back! Now, hand this over and go to Shaiya quickly from now on, it will be all right.”
Nebro stopped the two with a restless look. Then, without a word, Ilias turned his back and walked ahead.
“If it wasn’t for a real request, I’d just hit one.”
“Calm down, Freyr.”
I pity the flustered Nebro.
More than that, once Ilias started to have doubts, I saw more and more strange things.
‘There is almost no trace of learning the sword on the body. But the posture of holding the sword and the usual movements are quite plausible.’
Is that possible? It was as if I had mastered the technique only in my head. It’s not that it’s awkward, but it’s even more unique.
Also, judging from her usual behavior, she acted as if she knew in advance. From noticing that the giant was coming to the fact that she wasn’t afraid at all against the fairy queen and trolls…
‘Maybe I’m just being too self-conscious.’
Perhaps because of her resemblance to Luna, I was concerned.
In addition, it was all the more so because Nebro and emotional assimilation were taking place.
Nebro, who had little experience of meeting others, didn’t know why, but he seemed to like Ilias very much.
“It’s not because you keep treating me so softly that I’m not acting like that.”
“crime. sorry.”
[“How long are you going to be scolded? Go back to the Fairy Queen quickly.”]
The Ilias is Ilias, so getting out of this forest was the priority.
30 troll hearts gathered in a net made from vines from the forest. Eventually, following the guidance of the guide fairy who had been with us for two months, we arrived at the place where the fairies live and were greeted with great hospitality.
-It’s really 30 Star Candy! amazing!
Light spread in all directions. The fairies screaming joy roamed around us, and soon the Fairy Queen approached and cheered.
“Fairy Queen.”
At that time, Ilias came forward and said with a serious face.
“In exchange for handing over the star candies, you also follow Shaiya.”

-Eh?
Her companions were also taken aback by her sudden words that had not been spoken about in advance.
“What are you talking about all of a sudden?”
“Ilias?”
Freyr and Nebro talked, but Ilias stared at the Fairy Queen without even turning his head as if he would not give up his stubbornness.
“Follow Ilias.”
-but! we promised If you get 30 star candies, let them go outside!
“I know what you’re going to use the troll’s heart for.”
Uncharacteristically for Ilias, he scanned the fairies with a cold gaze, revealing the blade he was holding in his arms.
Sueung-!
“Will the cloud really let us who killed the trolls go? You have to take responsibility for it.”
-……Nyx’s priestess, you’re a bit strange. Why do you know that?
The Fairy Queen smiled eerily, raising only the corners of her mouth. At the same time, the friendly atmosphere quickly darkened.
“what. I don’t know if it’s far off, but let’s try it now, is this?”
Freyre, who felt the spirits of the fairies, drew his sword while lighting his twin wick. And Nebro showed a gesture that he did not know how to deal with and spread a protective shield.
“Why are you suddenly like this……”
“Fairy Queen Green Narae. I did what you guys couldn’t do, so pay the price.”
Ilias showed a strong look in contrast to the dazed look he had shown so far.
[“I don’t know how the hell things are going.”]
“Heavenly Angel. What should I do?”
[“Let’s see. Ilias must have an idea.”]
Ilias.
Also, something was strange. Did the Fairy Queen ever tell you her name?
And the cloud that I said in the middle follows. what the hell is blur? What the hell do you know, why do you just say things you don’t know?
-You knew those facts, but did you bother to help us just to take me?
“huh.”
Ilias admitted it so coolly. The fairies who saw it buzzed like a swarm of mosquitoes and were excited.
– They tricked us!
– How dare you use the queen!
– Bad boy! what a bad boy!
In an atmosphere that seemed to explode at any moment, I advised Nebro.
[“Spread the sleep spell.”]
“Yes? What is it now? suddenly?”
[“Yes.”]
It’s going to be noisy, but you can put it to sleep.
What are you going to do?
Ugh!
Immediately, Nebro’s magic was activated and all the excited fairies were put to sleep. However, only the Fairy Queen appeared perfectly fine, but suddenly approached Nebro with both eyes shining.
– Mysterious power. You killed trolls with it. Did someone inside you tell you that?
“omg!”
I could feel Nebro’s surprise and bewilderment up to this point. Anyway, compared to the strength he had, he was a man with a liver that was only a rat.
[“Ask me if you can see me.”]
-You can see and hear it. The first time I saw it, I felt that it only vaguely existed, but the presence became stronger before I knew it.
Oh oh? Can you hear my will?
Curiosities aside, let’s finish the deal for now.
[“I don’t intend to bargain. I don’t know why Ilias needs you, but follow me.”]
-Ah, I think I understand now.
The Fairy Queen stopped talking to me and looked at Ilias.
-Miss of Nyx, you must have already seen and heard this person. No matter what anyone says, you’re Nyx’s shrine maiden.
“…….”
Ilias didn’t answer.
I just listened in silence with a reluctant expression on my face. Seeing that as an unspoken affirmation, Nebro was surprised once again.
for a moment. If you can hear my will, you’re saying that all the useless words I’ve said to Nebro have been heard?
‘I teased Nebro about whether he likes Ilias, but he must have overheard all of that.’
But you’ve been pretending not to know? That guy is also dizzy.
“That doesn’t matter now. The important thing is that you follow Ilias.”
-It’s not my responsibility that the cloud is chasing me. Where are you going to trick me! Hi-Hi!
“Then don’t hand over these hearts.”
– Then you wouldn’t be able to get out of here? Cloudiness will soon follow. Are you okay though?
Suddenly things seemed to go wrong.
What the hell did Ilias want?
[“Is a Fairy Queen really necessary? Why are you taking me like that?”]
“Did you tell me?”
[“no. I was talking to Ilias. He said he could hear it too.”]
“I know you didn’t answer, but…”
“Oh, it’s complicated! Can’t we just hand it over and get out of here quickly?”
Ilias kept his cool even in the chaos. Her gaze was fixed on Neve, or more precisely, on me.
Come to think of it, that bloodline can see the soul. Maybe that’s why they can see and hear me. But why has it been hidden until now?
“No more failures.”
Ilias said something out of the blue and grabbed the basket containing the troll’s heart with a stubborn face.
“If Green Wings doesn’t follow Ilias, I’d rather not leave here.”
“What are you talking about!”
Despite Freyr’s cry, Ilias was not shaken. From that firm gaze, the will to never give up came through.
“Ilias.”
Nebro cautiously approached Ilias.
“Don’t come to Ilias.”
She stopped Nebro, threatening with the sword she pulled out.
[“For now, explain what happened. Don’t we have to be persuaded to follow your opinion?”]
“…….”
She looked at us with strange eyes to see if she could really hear my will.
“……I need help from the Fairy Queen. Not just Ilias, but everyone.”
Her words barely opened, the reason was still unknown, but only the earnestness was conveyed.
[“Did you say Green Narae?”]
-I don’t want to leave this forest?
[“If you help us, Siddhartha in Northern Guro will reward you.”]
-Hmm? I don’t like it very much!
“Are you just going to talk to each other? I can’t hear you!”
The Fairy Queen laughed heartily at Freyr’s words.
Then, suddenly, he tilted his head and asked.
-I’d rather think about it if you give me a reward yourself?
[“Me?”]
What compensation can I give you in this state?
-If you promise me, will you follow me?
[“As you can see, I look like this. How can I reward you?”]
-I’ll tell you later when I’m done. how is it?
The Fairy Queen made a suggestion in a calm tone. I became wary of her proposal after confirming that, unlike her pure-looking appearance, she also had a ferocious appearance.
“Accept it.”
At that time, Ilias spoke to me with earnest eyes.
“Please, angel.”
[“There’s not much I can listen to anyway. If that’s okay with you, I promise.”]
-Good!
The Fairy Queen accepted the deal. At the same time, he looked at Ilias and gestured as if to return the bundle he had left.
-So now give me star candy.
“here.”
It was a dramatic negotiation settlement.
Anyway, Ilias seems to be hiding something, but I felt the need to talk a little more for the future journey.
Duwoong————–!
“Kheop!”
“iced coffee?”
-found. found. found. found.
An intense wave that vibrated the air was transmitted, and someone’s voice was heard.
-Oh, it’s late. So I said I had to leave soon.
The Fairy Queen muttered in a carefree tone.
– It’s cloudy. All dead now! Hi-Hi!
It seems that the cloudiness I mentioned earlier has arrived here. It seemed to be related to the trolls just from hearing about it…
‘I think I’ve heard this voice somewhere.’
Soon, along with the sticky noise, the cries of the trolls echoed around.
-Grumble!
Ssssss–
“You have to leave quickly, Green Narae.”
– I still have work to do with star candy? I can’t go until then.
When the Fairy Queen refused, Ilias’ face turned blue.
“Does that take a long time?”
-huh? no. it’s over soon
“Then I will stop them.”
“conveyancer! Cloudiness is transcendent. I can’t stop it…….”
“It’s okay.”
Nebro’s trembling reached me.
However, he spoke confidently without showing any such sign outwardly.
“I became stronger to protect something precious. And you are precious to me.”
It might not be a big deal to other people, but having worked with Nebro for the past few years, I could tell.
Freyr and Ilias. That they have become very precious and special beings to Nebro now.
“Anyway, we’ve only been together for a few months……”
Seeing Nebro like that, Freyr grumbled and stood by.
“Hey fairy! Get it done quickly. I’ll see how I can hold out until then.”
“Freyr…….”
“Don’t look at me grossly. I’m just doing it because I want to get out of here.”
Nebro looked at Freyr with a moved expression, then clenched his fists.
“I will definitely stop it. Even if the opponent has reached the level of transcendence.”
Slurp-
Finally, the person I was talking to from afar started to appear. And I realized
[“That’s…….”]
I thought the voice sounded familiar, so why is that guy here
…
A monster whose tongue covers its entire body.
He was the ‘Chaser’ I saw in the Tower.
