Mystic Dominator

Time passed, and the execution ground in the dark night was quiet.

After Elva left, all signs of activity were completely lost here, and the yellow sand several meters high completely buried everything in it.

"..."

The status quo was maintained in this way, and after a considerable period of time passed.

The yellow sand in the execution ground began to make a slight "creaking" sound. It is difficult to hear this small sound unless you stick close to it. Ordinary people will only regard it as a vague illusion.

But then, the small voice gradually became louder.

It sounds like the sound of a rodent digging the soil.

— Another few seconds passed.

On the edge of a piece of yellow sand, a certain area began to faintly reveal a faint white, and the white could still be vaguely seen shaking.

The white light gradually brightened.

Finally, it can be clearly seen that the light source is gradually moving upwards in the yellow sand close to the wall.

brush--

Finally, an arm wrapped in white light stretched out from the yellow sand first.

Five fingers were immediately clasped firmly on the wall of the execution ground.

Immediately afterwards, relying on this support, the owner of the arm suddenly exerted force.

Only a 'pop' sound was heard.

The two entangled figures broke free from the shackles of the gravel, and rushed to the top of the wall at the scene.

Fortunately, the top of the execution ground has set up a stand to monitor the scene, and the space is spacious enough.

Rolling a few times on the spot, the two of them wouldn't fall directly from here.

After realizing that he was out of the restriction, Ronald sat down on the top of the execution ground wall, and then put the already limp Claudia beside him.

Knowing that Erva was no longer here, he immediately lay back and took a few breaths of fresh air:

"Aha--"

"Come out... let's come out!"

"..."

at the same time,

Claudia, who was lying on the side, was different from Ronald, who was extremely physically fit. Her state was obviously weaker.

A slender girl lay on top of the fence.

After panting for a long time, he gradually calmed down his breathing rhythm.

At this time, a gust of cold night wind happened to blow past where the two of them were.

Shocked, the flushed Claudia tilted her head, and then shifted her gaze to Ronald's face beside her.

Noticing the gaze of this companion, Ronald also turned his head to look over.

"..."

There was an awkward silence in the air.

After looking at each other for a few seconds, Claudia tilted her head and asked in a bad tone:

"Ronald, how long has it been since you brushed your teeth?"

"..."

Hearing this question, Ronald was taken aback for a moment.

Recall subconsciously.

Due to the inconvenience of the boat, he hadn't had time to brush his teeth since he got on the boat at Brenwich until yesterday when he arrived in Springs.

It seems...it has been a while

After experiencing the situation just now, it is no wonder that Claudia asked this question.

Sorry for not brushing my teeth...

Although there was some embarrassment on his face, Ronald also knew that Claudia was changing the subject, otherwise the subtle atmosphere just now would be maintained, and neither of them would be able to speak tonight.

So while dispelling a large amount of black mist that he summoned.

After the atmosphere calmed down, Ronald said:

"Isa, that guy has already run away."

"Looking at his last location when he disappeared, it should be in the southwest direction of the city."

While speaking, Ronald pointed to the distance.

He could feel Erwa's position just now, but it's a pity that the suppression of these gravels is too serious, and it is difficult for him to control the black mist to continue chasing the opponent.

As for now...

The two sides are too far away, and he can no longer feel the specific position of the other party.

At the same time, after hearing Ronald's description, Claudia, who was still resting, also turned her gaze to the southwest.

After bowing her head and thinking for a moment, her eyes darkened immediately:

"Southwest..."

"That's the location of the train station in the city. This guy probably ran away."

"It's really fast enough to run."

"..."

When saying this result, Claudia waved her hands helplessly, she was obviously not satisfied with this situation.

And hearing such an answer, Ronald's mood is inevitably a little complicated.

Looking at Claudia lying on the top of the wall beside him, he couldn't help complaining:

"By the way, the holders of the original codes I have met are almost all very decisive when they choose to escape or simply admit defeat. Is this a kind of mysterious atmosphere?"

For the first time, Claudia rolled her eyes indecently in front of Ronald.

Feeling the physical strength beginning to recover, the girl sat up half-supported, and then replied:

"Surrender or run away is better than dying directly at the hands of others."

"After all, you are the holder of the original code, and generally you will not force people to death. Unless you are absolutely crushed in strength and have no worries, who knows what irrational things the other party will do before death?"

"The battle on the mysterious side is more about interests, and it is enough to achieve the goal."

Hearing such an answer, Ronald nodded noncommittally:

"That's true..."

"..."

In this way, while blowing the cold wind of winter, at the same time, we exchanged views with each other.

As the one with the better physical fitness among the two, Ronald felt his physical strength recover first, and then stood up on the top of the wall.

Under the dark night, staring at the execution ground like a sea of ​​sand in front of him.

Ronald couldn't help but look down at his gloves.

Facing tonight's situation, he couldn't help feeling a little emotional for a while.

If they hadn't entrusted Claudia to make this pair of gloves for themselves before the battle, without the power of [Guardian] to ensure their own safety, they might have to pay a greater price for dealing with Elva, a veteran spellcaster.

The fact that he fought against the holder of the original card twice, the facts told him that this is a very dangerous thing.

Even if you have the advantage of understanding the original language.

However, people from other worlds also have a side that they can't catch up with after years of accumulated experience and help.

At this moment, Claudia stood up on the side.

However, unlike Ronald who was looking at the execution ground, she was looking at the location in Springs City.

Feel the cold wind blowing on your body.

A look of thought appeared on the girl's face.

After hesitating for a few seconds, she decisively said to Ronald:

"Ronald, will you take me to your house?"

Ronald was taken aback for a moment:

"well?"

"Go to my house?"

"Don't think about it." Hearing Ronald's doubtful tone, Claudia shook her clothes helplessly, "Do you think I can go home straight away?"

Brush Lala——

Reflecting Claudia's movements.

A lot of yellow grit fell from the corner of her clothes.

She was buried in the gravel just now, unlike Ronald, who didn't get a single grain of sand attached to her.
