A life aura not belonging to this world.
The Holy Sword’s Seal Ring.
A strange blessing.
And excessively powerful potential and abilities.
Anima saw all these signs in Shien and confirmed that he was definitely a Hero.
However, the Hero Summoning Ritual had been sealed, and there were no signs of it being used. Why would a Hero suddenly appear?
What had happened?
Because of this shocking discovery, Anima no longer cared about Lilith. After some hesitation, she decided to observe the situation for the time being.
But now…
“This has to stop.”
Seeing the sudden surge of astonishing magic power from the land of evil, the increasingly frenzied evil aura and beings, Anima knew she couldn’t stand by any longer.
If she continued to do nothing, Lilith’s seal would be broken, and the hell of the past would return.
Therefore…
“No matter what, I’ll reinforce the seal and exile the temple again before dealing with other matters.”
Anima was about to take action.
Unfortunately…
“Since you’ve chosen not to intervene, then continue watching, Goddess of Life.”
When this young voice reached Anima’s ears, her whole body stiffened, unable to move.
The familiar voice, like a long-lost dragon’s roar, resonated within Anima, causing her to abruptly turn her head and look to the side.
“Who!?”
Leisha also heard the voice, her expression changing slightly as she looked towards the source of the sound.
Upon seeing this, Leisha was first surprised, then overjoyed.
Because the people who could make her feel both surprised and joyful appeared at the same time.
“Long time no see, Anima.”
These words came from a small girl who had suddenly descended from the sky.
The petite girl, holding a pillow in her arms, retracted her dragon wings, landing on the rooftop with two other girls, one older and one younger, their figures appearing before Anima and Leisha. ꭆά𐌽ồꞖĚs̈
“Lasha!”
Leisha looked at the maid who had been brought here, identical in appearance to herself, and couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise.
“I’m glad you’re safe, Milady.”
Lasha, holding Beatrice’s hand, looked at Leisha standing beside Anima. Although her expression remained unchanged, a rare sense of relief appeared in her eyes.
“…”
Beatrice looked at Anima, as if she knew who she was, silent as always.
Anima’s gaze naturally fell on the petite girl holding the pillow, her voice a mixture of surprise and stiffness.
“Airi, the Dragon Demon…”
The newcomer, besides Airi, who else could it be?
“Why are you here?”
Anima was slightly shaken.
Airi, on the other hand, looked at Anima calmly.
“You’ve been observing my person for several days, and you didn’t even notice I was here?”
Airi said to Anima indifferently.
However, these words were like a bolt from the blue for Anima.
“So, you’ve been with that human all along?”
Anima’s words revealed that she hadn’t noticed Airi’s presence.
This was only natural.
Firstly, these past few days, Airi had been sleeping in her room almost all the time, never stepping out. Even Elise, who had been kidnapped, hadn’t seen Airi. How could Anima have noticed her presence?
Secondly…
“I knew you would come, and I knew you would target my person, so I deliberately suppressed my life aura and fell into a deep sleep these past few days.”
Airi said nonchalantly.
“If it were someone else, they might have discovered my presence through visual means, but for you, who doesn’t see with your eyes but directly senses the life aura of all things, this method of concealment was surprisingly effective, wasn’t it?”
Airi’s words left Anima speechless.
