The Devil Priest and the Brave Beautiful Girl

"Do you know them? Kana." Seeing the surprised expression on Kana's face, Saya asked a little curiously.

"Of course, I have played against each other. Moreover, I was hugged by the person inside." Kanai said excitedly while looking at the image of Ulysses in the mirror.

"Hugged?" Saye carefully looked at the opposite mirror, and finally turned her attention to Ulysses who hadn't paid much attention to her before.

Ulysses in the mirror is surrounded by Helen and Iphia. The two lovely girls seemed to be listening to what he said, and put their hands on his hands at the same time. That way, it feels very natural, as if everyone is used to this situation.

"How was the result of the fight?" Saye asked casually, who couldn't see what was unusual about Ulysses.

"I lost!" Kana replied readily.

"Lost? The defense of your treasure soul bell has lost its effect? ​​The average seventh-level powerhouse can't break through that obstacle, right? And, if you become a monster, it should be impossible to lose. For any 7th-level strong." Saye asked.

"Well, is this? Losing means losing. There is nothing to say. Although it didn't change into the form of a monster because of the carelessness, it was really caught by breaking through the defense. Thinking of it, it was really enthusiastic. Hug Meow!" Recalling the time when he was hugged by Ulysses, Kana's eyes became big heart-shaped.

"Is that the one who defeated you?" Seeing the heart-shaped circles in Kana's eyes, Saya pointed to Ulysses who was smiling and asked curiously.

"That's right, don't look at the clothes of the light wizard, he is a very powerful dark swordsman. And, I don't know why, as long as you stay by his side. It feels very comfortable! Meow! Mom is just as comfortable when we are together." Kana said, immersed in excitement, nostalgic.

Up to now, she can clearly remember when she was with Ulysses in Taji City. The incredible fascination felt by her blood, spirit, and even soul. It feels as cordial as it was in my mother's arms a long time ago.

That kind of feeling should be felt only on the demon or super monster that can exude a huge dark atmosphere. However, she did feel the special breath clearly. If it hadn't been for him to wear the light-type wizard's robe, she would never think of him as a "human"! In her sense, he should be the kind of demon with the strongest demon blood or the incarnation of a super monster like her.

"Really? It seems that I neglected that person too much. Speaking of which, Diu also gave him a very high evaluation. Interesting, this trip may become more and more interesting." Looking at Yuri in the mirror. Saya of Sith gently put his finger on his body, showing a very interested expression.

"But. Before that, you have to find a way to get close to them. Kana, you need to help. The maid's clothes must be suitable for you..."

"What does that mean? Meow?"

...

At this time, Ulysses was still advancing in the Karaal Mountains with the caravan. This is already the third day. Calculating the distance, they have reached a zone where they might be attacked by monsters. However, obviously, few people would take this kind of thing to heart, especially after that team of Paladins decided to go with the caravan.

Paladin, this is one of the most respected combat professions on the mainland by ordinary people. Not everyone can wear the armor with magic spells attached to it. Without a strong belief in the Supreme God, it is impossible to obtain the Paladin's armor that represents glory and power.

"It's boring. Didn't it mean that Schumacher will come? Why haven't you seen the shadow yet." The heroic Wang Yu, who was bored with the boring task of guarding, asked the paladin next to him impatiently.

"I'm really sorry. It was exactly as scheduled. Maybe something happened on the road. Master Schumacher has always been a time-keeping person, and it is impossible to delay the trip because of trivial things." The Paladin next to the heroic king Yu Ke Replied very seriously. It seems that he is very confident in Schumacher, one of the Paladins.

"Forget it, it doesn't matter if you have him or not, let's go ahead." The heroic Wang Yu, who was not interested in asking any more, didn't say anything, put his hands behind his head, and closed his eyes. For her, the biggest reward of this mission was to meet Yuna. Women who can share her interests are more precious than any treasures in this continent.

Unknowingly, this slightly weird caravan has penetrated into the Kalal Mountains. Beside them, the rolling mountains appeared tightly up and down. The setting sun, which had fallen near the horizon, gave out its last rays of light, and dyed the earth with a red rim of light.

"Let's camp here today." The leader of the caravan, the fat man, after looking at the sky and the nearby terrain, gave the order to camp on the spot.

Because I have already entered the Kalal Mountains, it is impossible to find a ready-made camp like the first day. However, the camp site chosen by the caravan leader this time is not bad. This is a small piece of flat land beside a cliff, with a clear stream beside it. This kind of terrain is very suitable for this kind of caravan with a small number of people.

As a mercenary group, Ulysses did not need to be responsible for setting up tents, so they naturally gathered together. At this time, the leader of the caravan also came over. Looking at his face, he was a little worried.

"Strange, do you feel that way, although there are the Paladins and your mercenary group. But walking this way, even a beast did not appear, it is too unusual." For frequent travels between the Kalal Mountains For the team leader, this is the first time he has met in this situation.

Although the strength of the mercenary group hired this time is quite strong [in fact, it is far beyond his limit imagination], plus luck met a group of Paladins willing to go with them [Suggestion of Heroic King Yuke 】, but this calm and almost weird atmosphere still makes him feel very wrong.

You know, this is not the kind of small hills, but the Kalal Mountains, the fourth largest in the mainland. In this huge mountain range, countless terrifying beasts live. From the lowest level slime that can be seen everywhere on the mainland, to the terrifying ogre, the two-footed wyvern. Even the immortal Hydra has been recorded.

Even a seventh-level powerhouse would not dare to say that he could completely ignore all the beasts in this mountain range. More than one hundred years ago, there was a record of three 7th-level powerhouses being eaten by a black hydra that had been sleeping for so many years. Although this business road chose an area without powerful beasts from the beginning, and often there are knights to clear the beasts next to the business road. But such a calmness is unrealistic no matter how you think about it.

"Indeed, it was too calm. Apart from the others, none of the three- and four-level beasts with little wisdom appeared. It is really strange." In the Apostles, the most experienced traveler, Lasputin, is also in some of them. Said intentionally.

"Arcelia, do you feel a strong breath?" Ulysses closed his eyes and carefully felt the surrounding environment, but did not find any strong breath.

"No, but this situation is really unnatural. There are several possibilities." Alzeria said calmly, who also didn't feel the abnormal aura.

"First, someone had driven out or wiped out all dangerous beasts long before we came. However, in that case, we should be able to find traces, and the possibility is not very high."

"Second, there is a certain wise beast that has sensed that we are truly powerful. With its power, he ordered the nearby beasts to avoid us. This possibility is also very small. The wise beasts are in the group of beasts. Zhong is a super rare existence, not to mention having a strong power. You can order the Wisdom Beasts that are inferior to the Beasts."

"Third, the most likely one is that a powerful monster or other creature with absolute power has appeared in a large area nearby. In the area of ​​such a creature, no ordinary monsters are allowed. In mine In my memory, only dragons or powerful creatures of the same level can do this."

"Indeed, the third possibility is the greatest. Team leader, do you know that there are that kind of beasts in the Karaal Mountains?" After carefully considering the three possibilities Arcelia said, Ulysses also thought that the last one It is the most likely to infer.

"Yes... But, is it really possible? You are not mistaken, if it is really that, it would be bad. In the Kalal Mountains, there are monsters with that ability. They appeared once and ate them. The undead hydra of three seven-level powerhouses is known as Hydra, the Lord of Nightmares." After hearing Alzeria's final judgment, the caravan leader's face suddenly became extremely pale. The nightmare lord of the Kalal Mountains is one of the most terrifying legends on the mainland.

"Kalal's nightmare, in the history of the mainland, has it eaten the black hydra of at least ten seventh-level powerhouses-Hydra? Has it started to move again? This is really a tricky opponent." Lasputin, who also guessed the answer, sighed and said with a headache.

As a traveler, she naturally understood what kind of existence it was. According to legend, this Hydra has existed for a long time. The earliest records seem to go back to the time of the ancient wars, when the vampires and the human alliance confronted. At that time, the Hydra, a member of the Demon King Army, was the enemy of mankind. In that era, it was an eighth-level monster, but after so many years, it is not clear what level its current strength has reached.

The only good news is that this Hydra, which has not known how many years it has lived, spends most of its time sleeping somewhere underground. There may not be a day in a hundred years when there will be activities. For most people, it will always be just a legend.

"It's not clear if it is. Before it appeared, everything was just speculation. In short, there is nothing wrong with being vigilant." After calmly thinking about it, Ulysses found that the intelligence was not enough at all. These speculations were all. There is no real evidence.

"Indeed, be more vigilant. Helen, you go patrol nearby to find out what's wrong." Aiya, who got Hydra's specific information from Lasputin, gave orders to Helen. If it were her, even if she really met that Hydra, she should be able to come back.

"Understood, Sister Aya." Helen, who had kissed Ulysses sweetly and slept with Ulysses in the last night, is now at the highest stage of combat effectiveness and immediately followed Aya's orders.

...

At about eleven o'clock in the evening, Helen returned, but she didn't find something as huge as a Hydra. If it is really the same as the legend, it should be a terrifying monster that is as huge as a mountain. However, it is obvious that such a body shape cannot be hidden. So in the end, Ulysses and the others still couldn't figure out whether this strange sign was caused by it.

"Sleep at ease." After finishing his goodnight kiss to Helen, Ulysses gently held her in his arms.

"I like it the most, I like Dad the most." Helen, who was immersed in happiness, fell asleep soon. For her, Ulysses' arms is the paradise of her dreams, an ideal home without any troubles.

"I fell asleep so soon, it really is a child." Or because of the Hydra incident mentioned by Lasputin during the day, Ulysses could not fall asleep quickly, but was a little annoyed.

"The Supreme God, please listen to the prayers of your believers." Not knowing when or why, Ulysses took out a small magic talisman and gently started his own prayer.

Why did you come up with this, Ulysses himself is not very clear. This magic amulet was given to him by an old priest on the Titan Poseidon. Maybe it was because this was a talisman belonging to the priest, he cherished it very much. Although he didn't plan to do anything with this talisman, he always felt at ease when he held it.

However, the prayer this time was obviously different from the past. The magic amulet held in his hand, this time exuding genuine and true light, only belonged to the light of divine art.

In the dimness, everything began to change. In the memory, something seemed to wake up slowly. It is so far away that it can't be far away, as if more distant than childhood, a confused memory.

In the end, he finally noticed that there was a special mark and name on the magic amulet in his hand.

"In the calendar of light, in the glorious festival, I, Cardinal Mayphy, bestow the blessings of the Supreme God on the Ana family."
