The Death Knight Became an Escort Knight for the Saintess - The Death Knight Became an Escort Knight for the Saintess chapter 103

99. Battle of Ten Ma [2]

99.

The pillar had a rather strange appearance. At first glance, the slightly slanted pillars looked like trees belonging to a small axis by the standards of . One large pillar entwined with many vines looked more like a part of a tree entwined with vines rather than a pillar.

However, the word ‘similar’ does not mean the same as ‘same’. No one would be able to look at it and not think of it as a pillar. Even in the jungle of Lauren where this darkness was imprisoned, it clearly testified to its existence. The reason was so obvious.

Excluding the Death Knight, the three had to swallow their saliva while looking at the pillar. All three felt the same feeling at the same time.

The feeling that an ancient being with a myth has traveled back in time and arrived right in front of your eyes. Strictly speaking, this is not incorrect. Actually, that is none other than a product of .

Neither the innumerable entwined vines nor the scratches carved into the stone-made surface detracted from its grandeur. Rather, it is a glorious proof that it has endured countless times.

The saintess of innocence had experienced a similar feeling. It was when he saw the temple of Bajarak, the demon of red flame, in Rephaim Forest. But she couldn’t even compare to that. At that time, the entire temple evoked this feeling, but now only the pillars at the entrance of the temple do.

Not to mention the case of two elves. It literally felt like a part of the myth had descended into reality. That ‘surreal’ feeling made me feel even the strange feeling of mental tinnitus.

Freigit asked her fiancée in a trembling voice.

“This is… It’s ten thousand battles… ?”

“I don’t know… ….”

When Freiggit heard that, she had to turn her head. It took her longer than expected to turn her head. Already, he was overwhelmed by just accepting that ‘surreal’. When I barely turned my head, I saw Ferien’s bewildered face.

Meanwhile, setting aside his admiration for her fiancée’s beauty, he opened his mouth and sparsely spoke.

“You… Haven’t you been here before?”

Perien, who seemed stunned by those words, shook her head in shock.

“What?! No! All I did was reach the first part of the temple I saw. I haven’t been able to go there since. My great-grandmother strictly forbade me to go beyond that in the first place. I didn’t even know there were things like this out there…. I knew about Manmajeon, but most of it was just words….”

Freigit thought he could understand the position of his fiancée’s great-grandmother, who only vaguely lingered in his memory. If anyone sees such a ‘surreal’ scene, they will inevitably feel a psychological burden mixed with awe rather than charm.

“This is amazing… ….”

At the sound of another bewildered voice, the two elves slowly turned their heads. Eccilia was looking up at her, with one hand on her pole. The pillar was so huge and Esilia so small that she was almost leaning her back behind her and looking up.

That look created a very stark visual contrast. The two elves, unknowingly watching at the strange appearance, were brought back to their senses by Esilia who let out a sound like ‘Wow!

The saintess of innocence, who had been struggling to keep her arms from falling, was able to keep her balance so lightly that her efforts were not worth it. Because the Death Knight simply supported her saint’s back. Supporting her back, Jer Peed said, ‘Whew…’ … !’ And watched her saintess for a moment as she let out a sigh of relief, then opened her mouth, slightly turning her eyes to her two elves.

“I just heard you two talking. Then it seems that Miss Perien has never been here before.”

Hearing her words, Ferien nodded her head, twisting her hair as if slightly shaking. Ferien felt her face flush slightly.

“Ah… um, that’s right I’ve never been here before…….”

“Then you wouldn’t even know the internal structure.”

Listening to the Death Knight’s calm words, Perien felt her blush even more. She said she’d provide guidance no matter how much she was asked, but she said she couldn’t do the most important part. But she had her own excuses.

“I didn’t expect it to be this big… ….”

Even at a glance, the scale of Ten Thousand Horses was enormous. Since the size of the pillars at the entrance was only this, it was clear that the size of the interior would be the same. Of course, only the columns could have been made large, but why would the temple be built in such an inefficient way? After staring at Ferien for a moment, Zer Pied shifted his gaze back toward the massive pillar.

The magnificent pillars, though heavily damaged, still retained their original form. It was as in memory. No, it’s not completely the same. At that time, the area around the entrance was not like this jungle. Moreover, it did not even tilt.

But just because the entrance is barely damaged from what it looked like in memory, that doesn’t mean the interior won’t either. Moreover, basically, this place is Manmajeon. I don’t know what danger lurks inside for all those years he hasn’t stopped by. After sorting out his thoughts, Zer Pied made a conclusion.

“Then go back.”

“What?” “What?”

At the sudden suggestion of returning, the two elves widened their eyes as if they had promised. It took several days to arrive before Manmajeon. But I only reached the beginning, so I want to go back? Of course, what Zerfied said next was realistic.

“You don’t even know what’s inside. Just guiding you here is enough. We take care of the rest.”

It was a time when I was trying to at least protest.

“Please do so. Miss Ferien, Mr. Freight.”

The moment they saw the eyes of the holy maiden of innocence staring straight at them, standing next to the Death Knight and nodding her head, the two elves had no choice but to keep their mouths shut. It was a very bright eye.

Until now, I couldn’t even remember the tribal dwelling and the girl’s appearance of the same age that I showed on the way to Manmajeon. The two elves even had a strange feeling that the little woman in front of her was stronger than anyone they had ever met.

He tried to nod her head, saying that he would draw on those eyes without realizing it, but he bit his lip tightly.

“Would you like a guide?”

“Yes?”

At the sudden question, Celia asked again with her eyes wide open. Zer Pied also tilted her head slightly, unable to understand the words for a moment. Ferien also turned her head and looked at her fiancé, as if she did not understand.

“You asked for guidance? By the way, why are you just telling me to go back?”

Zerpied finally understood what he meant, and opened his mouth with a slight frown between his brows.

“Frigit, do you know what’s inside? I don’t even know the specific internal situation. Besides, you haven’t been back to your hometown in a while. You’re not used to it yet, just go back. There is no need to overdo it.”

“What is a crowd?”

Speaking sparingly, the frigate felt a little embarrassed. It was a weird feeling. The words of that knight, Huchi, were extremely realistic and reasonable. But even so, he thought he couldn’t control what he was saying. It was as if he couldn’t bear it if he didn’t talk.

“Do you think it is impossible for me to bring you all here to Lauren?”

The bewildered saintess and death knight looked at him blankly, but the frigate continued to speak as if protesting vigorously.

“If it was a real crowd, I wouldn’t have brought them here. Even Voltry’s request would have been entrusted to someone else who could help you. No matter how many years I come back to my hometown, it is the place where I was born and raised. I know better than you guys.”

After saying that, the frigate still had a strange feeling. But he was in a strange mood of a different kind than before. He had been very eccentric before. He was becoming bizarrely calm now.

“So, just follow me.”

Finishing his words, the frigate strode into the entrance and put his foot down. Perien, who was watching her, smiled at her and followed her fiancé by her side.

Looking back at the Death Knight and the saintess who were still staring at the two, Ferien shouted.

“What are you doing? I’m not following you! Aren’t you going to be guided? Didn’t you forget that I was the only one who brought you guys this far?”

Having shouted that, Perien jumped up and went further inside with her fiancé. Inside the entrance was a large cave made of stone. It was a place where darkness lurked, as if exiled, even among the dark jungle because of the leaves.

I wouldn’t have seen it at all if it weren’t for the glowstone that didn’t lose its light, albeit dimly, at the top of the wall. It could be said that she had lived here almost her entire life, but seeing her for the first time made Ferien feel overwhelmed for a moment.

-Gulp

But she slowly swallowed her overwhelm with saliva. Because she had something to say.

“By the way, who is the Volt Lee you’ve been talking about? Is it a girl?”

“…… What?”

Listening to the cold jungle and the cold voice that didn’t match at all, Frey Gigg couldn’t shake the thought that his fiancé standing right next to him might be more dangerous than the unknown danger inside her temple.
