*********** ************** *********** **************** **************

After finishing all the bandits, rescuing Serine and at the same destroying a large part of the slums; Shina’s group returned to Keyse’s house.

The three boys were at the same time grateful, but also scared of those girls. Only Serine was happy, nobody knew what she experienced there.

Of course this made Estiel, Fiona and Shina sad, but they knew how they felt. Fiona and Estiel also experienced this after seeing Shina and Eniel kill someone for the first time, but they also knew that if they didn’t do it then they would be the ones who would be dead.

Frey : “ Y-You… Why didn’t you tell us ?! “ He yelled in an angry tone while staring at the girls.

Serine : “ F-Frey !! Calm down please ! “ Serine said trying to calm him.

Frey : “ What do you mean by calm down ? We have been sleeping with murderers ! “

Serine : “ They aren’t murderers, they only killed them to protect us ! “ She tried to argue, but she was the only one thinking like this.

Keyse and Baian didn’t say anything but only nodded at Frey’s words.

Frey : “ Serine, you have to understand... They can’t stay here anymore… “

Serine : “ Why… They changed our life for the better… They helped us to find a way to live rightfully… They even saved me by fighting a whole group of criminals and made sure they wouldn’t bother us in the future… SO WHY ARE YOU ACTING LIKE THIS ?! “ Serine said as she was crying.

While the boys only saw them slaughter bandits the whole night, for Serine the girls were her saviors. She was imprisoned by the thugs for many days already and the ones who came to save her while she was located in the most dangerous place in the city was them…

How could she not feel angry at them, they were insulting her friends and saviors…

Nuya : “ WHY ARE Y… “ Nuya tried to protest, but she was quickly stopped by Shina.

Shina : “ It’s fine… We were planning to leave soon anyway, let’s just say we will leave sooner than planned. “ She said as she turned to the exit.

Serine : “ WAIT !! “ She yelled, trying to stop them, but she was grabbed by the three boys.

Shina’s group left in a depressed mood, they just lost four of their friends, but they still didn’t regret what they did, even if they lost them at least they were still alive.

Inkvir : “ You did well. “ Inkvir said as he looked at them with a mix of warmth and pity.

Shina : “ I understand that they were afraid… After all, we never told them anything about us. What they saw tonight should have shocked them. “ She said in a depressed tone.

Estiel : “ So… What should we do now ? “

Shina : “ Let’s go buy a map and leave the city. The Guild should still be open. “

The Adventurers Guild wasn’t only a place for adventurers, but also for merchants and many other professions. They were selling not only maps, but also provisions, trade certificate, medicine and many other things made with the monsters‘ parts they were buying from the adventurers.

One can say that the Guild was in reality a business made to support adventurers and merchants.

Fiona : “ At least with the loot we amassed in the dungeon, we should have more than enough to travel for a few months without any problem. “

Shina : “ Let’s hurry up, I want to leave the town quickly… “ She said as she sped up the pace.

Shina was the one who felt the worst about what happened, she truly thought of Keyse, Frey, Baian and Serine as her friends. Seeing the boys‘ reaction towards them made her feel sick, this was why she quickly tried to leave the town.

She hoped that leaving the town as soon as possible would make this feeling disappear, everyone understood this and that was the reason why nobody protested against her decision.

While they were walking, Eniel slowly hugged Shina from behind; this hug wasn’t like the usual one where she tried to have fun teasing her.

It was because she wanted to make her feel better, seeing her in this state also hurt her deeply. Even if she was able to fight by her side, she felt bad for being unable to make her feel better.

Shina : “ Thanks Eniel… “ She gently said as a few tears ran down her cheeks, making Eniel hug her ever harder.

After arriving at the Adventurers Guild, they quickly exchanged their stuff for gold; the exchange took a few hours because of the part of the unknowns monster they brought from the unexplored floors of the dungeon.

When the clerk finally managed to set a price of those part, they obtained a whole sum of 950 gold. Knowing that the parts of an A ranked monster sell at 60 gold, one could easily imagine how strong the monsters were by obtained amount with only 12 monsters parts.

This amount wasn’t only enough to purchase the map whose cost was of 25 gold, but also to continue to travel for at least four years while living every day in an expensive hotel.

After purchasing the map and the provisions, Shina’s group went to the city’s gates; not even losing a single second, wanting to leave the city as soon as possible.

Kiel : “ Mistress, are you sure of not wanting to try to talk to them ? If Mistress leaves like this, she will feel regret for many years… “

Shina : “ I can’t see them anymore, you saw how much they hate us… “

Kiel : “ If Mistress doesn‘t go, she’ll definitely regret it ! “ She insisted.

Shina : “ Kiel, please stop. “ Shina answered with a determined voice.

Fiona : “ Let’s go then, any idea on the destination ? “

Shina : “ Hmmm, I still need to find Verlox… But he may not be in Holy Kiel anymore, should we try Aorlan or Delia ? Unless Estiel wants to return to her home. “

Estiel : “ The further I am from there, the better I feel…How about you Fiona ? Feel like going back home ? “

Fiona : “ I don’t really care, even if we go there nobody really knows me. I was hidden from the population because of my hairs colors, as long as we don’t meet someone of the royal family, it’ll be fine. “

Shina : “ Eniel, any proposition ? “

Eniel : “ How about traveling to Delia and then decide if we go to Aorlan or not ? “ She simply answered.

If we were to look at the continent’s map, the countries near Friesel are Delia and Holy Kiel, in order to get to Aorlan from Friesel, one had to pass through either one of those two countries.

Fiona : “ We can indeed decide on that later, let’s go. “

As everyone was around fifty meters away from the gates, a small voice was heard.

??? : “ ...ait...ait… “

It was only a small voice, but everyone managed to hear it; the time they passed in the dungeon had developed their senses.

??? : “ WAIT !! “

Four people arrived at the gates, it was the three boys who said they didn’t want to have anything to do with them anymore and the sole girl of their group.

Serine : “ WAIT !! “ She desperately yelled.

However, Shina deliberately ignored them and continued to walk away, she didn’t want to experience the previous scene once again.

Seeing them leaving, the three boys didn’t try to chase them; but only said one thing altogether.

Baian / Frey / Keyse : “ WE ARE SORRY, THANK YOU !! “ They said as they went on their knees, pushing their heads on the ground.

*********** ************** *********** **************** **************

A few hours ago after Shina’s group left, they were thinking about everything that happened since they met them, trying to justify their actions and deny Serine’s opinion.

But whenever they tried to remember how evil those girls were, trying to curse them… They were unable to do so. The first time they met, those boys tried to rob them; they had the double of their age and tried to rob them when they were unarmed.

Seeing the strength they showed tonight, they knew that if those girls had fought seriously, then they would have died without any chance to fight back.

In addition, not only did they forgive them; but they even taught them a way to let their past behind and live honestly. And the most important, they went as far as risking their life to save Serine even though they only knew her for only a few days…

Keyse, Baian and Frey suddenly felt bad, they treated the people who helped them as monster and chased them away after being helped by them… So what if they killed people ? ‘They killed them to protect us and we simply threw them away...’ was the thought which passed everyone’s mind.

As they finally realized how bad they reacted, they all got up and started to run toward the city’s main gate, hopping they didn’t leave yet and would have used it to leave.

Since the time they started to think, a few hours passed; they were sure that they had already left, but if there were a chance to meet them, then they would grab it.

When they arrived, Shina’s group was fifty meters away from the gates; Serine who had followed the boys secretly, wondering what they were doing realized their intentions the moment one of them started to scream.

Frey : “ WAIT !! WAIT !! “

However his voice showed hesitation, he didn’t know how to apologize to them for what he had said previously. None of them had to courage to scream louder.

Serine : “ WAIT !! “ Serine who had rushed to the gates screamed with all her voice.

When their screams finally reached them, after looking from where the voice was coming from, Shina’s group ignored it and walked away.

The boys wanted to apologize from the bottom of their hearts, but they knew that what they did was unforgivable; but still, all they could do was to ask for forgiveness.

The three of them pushed their heads against the ground so hard that it bled. They stayed like this for five whole minutes, not willing to raise their heads even once.

Serine : “ They are gone. “ She said as she looked at the horizon, her words made the boys raise their head.

What they saw at the location where Shina’s group was previously was only a message dug in the ground.

‘We’ll be back’

Not only Keyse, Frey and Baian were crying, but Serina as well. This was how they departed from the four girls who completely changed their lifes.

*********** ************** *********** **************** **************

Two months ago :

A black haired man with golden eyes accompanied by a sixteen years old black haired woman were walking in a forest located at the north of Friesel, it was the forest of the Fairy Queen.

They had been walking through the forest for half an hour before the man suddenly stopped.

Man : “ It is here… “ The man said before punching in the air in front of him; all of a sudden many crackles appeared where he punched.

The crackles propagated, forming what seemed to be a sphere of around fifty kilometers before shattering the sphere.

What was inside the sphere were two cities of half Delfia’s size made of trees, it populated with only fairies.

Man : “ I am going to check the city at the right, you go at the left one. “ The man said to the black haired woman.

Woman : “ Hope they are here… “ The woman said with an indifferent face.

When the woman arrived at the left city, she was greeted by twenty fairies dressed in what seemed to be an armor; but the armor seemed to be really light.

The fairies were all shaking in front of the woman, it was because no human ever managed to enter their city.

Seeing the fairies start to chant something, the woman quickly unsheathed a pure white sword and swung it at them, sending the fairies flying against the city’s tree and knocking them out.

A high number of fairies who were watching the intruder began to fly away, looking like a group of children. It was because fairies peaceful nature made them very afraid of what could harm them.

The only exception were the Fairy Queen and her soldier who were trained to be fearless.

Cutting through the fairies‘ troops, the woman suddenly got stopped by a spear of light which she blocked with her sword; the woman looked up in the sky, a woman with fairy wings was slowly descending, it was the Fairy Queen, Isendel.

Isendel : “ Who are you human, and how did you break our barrier ?! “ She angrily asked.

Woman : “ I am looking for four girls; two demihumans and one human... “ The black haired woman said as she ignored Isendel’s question.

Isendel : “ I don’t care about your reason, but by breaking our barrier you made yourself into one of our enemy. “

Many small balls of light appeared around Isendel, and all of them flew towards the black haired woman.

However, the woman didn’t show a hint of fear and charged forward through the balls, cutting with her sword through the ones that would have touched her.

A normal sword would have been shattered against Isendel’s light magic with only one hit, but the woman’s white sword was made of a rare metal which could only be forged by dragons; it was made of mithril.

As the woman approached Isendel, when she was finally in range she swung her sword, targeting Isendel’s neck but her swing was easily dodged because of Isendel’s wind magic.

Before her sword had hit her, Isendel used her wind magic to send a strong wind against the woman’s hand, slowing her sword and giving her enough time to dodge. Isendel didn’t stop here and formed a light spear in her right hand before thrusting it to the woman’s stomach.

But the spear was stopped… with only one hand. It was grabbed by the man who previously left to go to the other city.

Man : “ Hmph, I only leave you for a moment and you almost died Veyna… “ The man coldly said.

Veyna : “ I am sorry milord… “ She answered to the man while lowering her head.

Isendel after having her spear blocked quickly flew backwards, all her senses were telling her to run away from the man, that the man was someone who she couldn’t beat… But Isendel was the Fairy Queen, she couldn’t back down.

Isendel : “ Introduce yourself ! “ She said to the man with an arrogant tone.

The moment she said those words, Isendel had her neck grabbed by the man; from her point of view, it was like the man had teleported and grabbed her. She was unable to talk or move.

Man : “ Who granted you the right to talk to me you lowly goddess ? “ He said while glaring at her with a deadly stare.

The man’s eyes made Isendel turn pale, she quickly regretted the arrogance she showed earlier.

Man : “ I’ll still answer your question, my name is Veralox. “ He said before letting Isendel go.

Isendel : “ W-What is the D-Dragon God doing here ?! “ Isendel asked as she tried to get her breath back.

Veralox : “ I heard you fought against someone who I am looking for… Her name is Shina. “
