There were tears in her eyes, her face was full of fear and fear, and her slender and petite body was still trembling uncontrollably, but the girl who had lifted the protective force field raised her hands high, put on a posture of letting it be disposed of, and let out a somewhat desolate pleading. "Please, please, please don't kill me......"
The crowd that surrounded the girl in the center in a semi-ring shape, the expressionless Casper's hands fluctuated, and Willard's lightning shackles quickly condensed.
And Cheney, who thought about it for a while, directly revealed the identity of this girl. "Queenie of the Blood Spotted Leopard Family, the Dawn Rank Intermediate Strength, is the weakest in the strength of the Mirror Realm, although her strength is second only to the patriarch in the family, but her patriarch arrived in the Frozen City three months ago, and it is said that she came to seek refuge!"
And Raymond, who exuded spiritual power to investigate, opened his mouth to ask after understanding that the girl had completely given up resistance. "Tell me, how did you get here, and who else is behind you?"
The girl, whose eyes had been fixed on Casper's hands, lit up after hearing Raymond's inquiry. "I ...... I'm just a person, yes, I'm chased by Lord Sali and run into this passage......"
Quinny's words stuttered and were a little unclear at the beginning, but as her narration unfolded, everyone present was a little crying and laughing.
Just to protect the half of the brown dove flower she harvested, this girl who only had the strength of the middle level of Dawn rushed into the passage entered by Raymond and the others in a panic when she faced the sandstone beast Sali Evil, and finally inexplicably teleported through the door of space countless times and entered the secret passage, and she was extremely lucky to choose the route that Raymond and others had cleaned up, and appeared in front of everyone.
Hearing this, Cheney burst out laughing. "Queenie, do you think that if you get rid of the Sali evil in this mirror realm, he can't help you?"
"I ...... All I wanted was to protect the doves. All I know is that if I can bring these brown dove flowers out and hand them over to the patriarch, the family will be able to hold on for a while longer......"
"Persistence, why can the Blood-spotted Leopard Clan still hold on?" was mocking and sneering, but the pity in Cheney's eyes was undisguised. "None of your clan's strength can resist the personal guards under the command of the young patriarch of the Sandstone Beast Clan, Sali Evil, not to mention that he is a man who will be revenged, you can't escape!"
The sparkle in his eyes faded with Cheney's words, and the blood-spotted leopard Quinnie cried bitterly. "How, what should I do...... I...... I didn't think so...... Woowoo woo ......"
With her hands raised over her face, Quinnie, the blood-spotted leopard who slowly fell to the ground, cried as if she had lost control.
And at the moment when she lowered her hands, Casper, who was vigilant, almost came out of his hand with a movement of his fingers, and the condensed and ready wind blade almost came out, but Willard, who was standing on his side, did not hesitate to disperse the thunder and lightning shackles in his hand, and a dodge blocked in front of Casper.
"Lord Raymond. I think she's quite pathetic, what do you think?"
There was unbearability in Willard's words, but Cheney, who sneered again when he heard the sound, immediately shouted. "This is a secret passage to the Mirror Realm! Except for the two of you, the other participants must be killed if they break in, this is the order I received!"
Queenie, the blood-spotted leopard who sat on the ground with her face covered, quickly shouted when she heard the sound. "I ...... I don't ask you to spare me. But, can you allow me to say a word?"
The condensed spell on Cheney's hands shone with energy, and Casper, who frowned, appeared behind the girl bypassing Willard. The wind blade in his hand also became more majestic.
"I'm sure you don't think you have the resources I have. So I have only one request, and that is to give the Patriarch these Brown Doves that I have obtained, so that my family can continue to seek refuge!"
After speaking, the blood-spotted leopard Quinny didn't wipe the tears on her face, but her eyes were focused on Raymond's body, a sad but desperate appearance.
Willard, whose face was cold, shook his body and opened his hands in front of Casper and Cheney. Shouted. "Don't kill her!"
Cheney's eyes widened, but he roared. "She must die!
Willard, who also widened his eyes, roared. "Raymond!
Raymond, who had been thinking about what to do, turned his attention to Casper. "The rest of the road is not a small risk. If you add one manpower, you can have more security!"
Slowly but firmly shaking his head, Casper's expression showed no emotion. "We're here to protect against risk. ”
Quinny, the blood-spotted leopard, who completely collapsed, cried. "No problem, no problem, I am willing to accept any risk! As long as you can bring these brown doves back to my family, I can do anything!"
"Are you willing to die even if you know it?"
Raymond's question made Quinnie, the blood-spotted leopard, stunned for a moment, but then a look of surprise appeared on her face, and she hurriedly agreed. "As long as you agree to my request, nothing will be fine!"
"Then it's settled!" said Raymond, who had made a promise, and turned to Casper. "Master Casper, I will set a ban on her, I need such a person for the rest of the journey!"
His pupils shrank, and Casper stared at Raymond for a long time before nodding. "Good!"
The wind blade condensed in his hand was not canceled, but Casper took two steps back.
Cheney, who wanted to speak, opened his mouth, and finally canceled the spell he was about to release with an unhappy face, and let it aside.
Raymond, who took two steps forward, looked down at the blood-spotted leopard Quinny sitting on the ground and opened his mouth. "Did you hear my conditions clearly?"
The blood-spotted leopard Quinnie with her face upturned had a promise in her eyes that was absolutely and without hesitation. "No problem!"
"Well, I'll impose a ban on you, but I'll promise to give it to your patriarch after I leave here!"
Laughing miserably, she relaxed all over, and directly untied the blood-spotted leopard Kunnie spread the brown dove flower on the ground.
Willard, who couldn't bear it, hesitated to pass the sound. "Raymond, do you really want to ban her?"
"We are not familiar with her, and there are risks in the rest of the journey......"
Shaking his head imperceptibly, Raymond, who had explained the reason to Willard, waved his hands quickly, and after a while, a small cloud of pale black substance was condensed and handed over directly. "Eat it!"
The raised palm was trembling violently, but the blood-spotted leopard Quinny took it and stuffed it directly into her mouth and swallowed it.
Staring into the eyes of the blood-spotted leopard Quinny, Raymond began to speak word by word. "It's a forbidden way to manipulate your mind, and if you're upset I can make you unconscious at any time, so please don't have any other thoughts. But I can promise that I won't let you die in vain!"
There was a flash of gratitude in her eyes, and the blood-spotted leopard Kunnie, who slowly got up, bowed her head and saluted. "Understood, my lord, I will fully carry out your orders!"
Glancing at the brown doves that were spread on the ground by the girl, Raymond's heart was a little uncomfortable. "Put these things away and get ready to go!"
"What a man!"
Quinnie, the blood-spotted leopard who crouched down, carefully put the large pile of brown doves back into her waist bag, and Willard, who couldn't bear it, also came to her side and helped her clean it up, and finally couldn't help but ask at the end of the day. "Queenie, why don't you put these brown doves in your storage space? The smell of brown doves is very strong, and they are particularly attractive to certain creatures......"
"There's no way, the last ring in the family has also been exchanged by the patriarch for a place to enter the mirror realm, so ......"
"How is it possible! You are also the strength of the Dawn level, how could you be so downcast!"
Willard, who exclaimed in surprise, had an incredulous look on his face.
The blood-spotted leopard Quinnie, who had a sad face, stopped talking, and after putting away all the brown doves, she obediently stood beside Raymond...... (To be continued......)
