Deep in the secluded Forest, a massive figure stood under the moonlight.
Vines as thick as an adult's arm were swung by it as if they were its own, appearing incredibly flexible and effortless!
Each strike was filled with immense power, slamming heavily onto the ground and making terrifying sounds!
Although it was a subspecies of the Chaos Flower, it displayed terrifying strength comparable to the Chaos Flower itself!
"Damn it, I can't keep running away!"
After leaping to a safe spot once more, Sein had just adjusted his posture and stood firm when he couldn't help but grit his teeth, staring fiercely at the Chaos Flower wildly swinging its vines, and spoke out.
His surroundings were a mess, with large and small sunken pits spreading like a plague!
The places where he could dodge were also getting fewer and fewer!
"But..."
"But I can't attack at all!"
Sein glanced in the direction where the Goddess's Holy Spear had been bounced away by the Chaos Flower's petals.
There, a section of the Forest had already been turned into a mess under this terrifying power!
"Should I wake Frieren?"
Sein hesitated, thinking, while his body was incredibly agile, dodging the long whip that suddenly struck towards him again!
Every time Sein noticed the Chaos Flower exposing its core and prepared to attack, it would always be defensively alerted beforehand!
He didn't dare to attack at all!
This task of seizing fleeting battle opportunities was not something a priest, who served as the team's medic, should be doing!
"Rumble!"
It got even more exaggerated!
As if angered by Sein's fly-like behavior, the Chaos Flower slowly pulled its roots from the ground and began to move!
After its already massive figure, with dozens of meters of thick roots completely pulled from the ground to become giant "root legs"...!
The Chaos Flower almost blotted out the sky!
This terrifying figure could completely bring immense pressure, even despair!
This is bad!
Sein's expression changed, revealing despair.
It was already difficult to see the core within the Chaos Flower's crimson petals; now that the Chaos Flower had stood up, there wasn't even a shadow of the core!
Even worse, the Chaos Flower no longer paid attention to Sein but moved towards the Village!
The first to bear the brunt were the large trees that were brutally trampled down by the Chaos Flower!
"Frieren!"
Sein reacted, shouting loudly as he ran quickly towards Frieren!
If he was late...
Frieren, who was still sleeping in the Chaos Flower's path, would definitely be trampled into paste!
"Rumble!"
"Rumble!"
The Chaos Flower was still advancing.
Sein looked at Frieren, who was within reach, and breathed a sigh of relief, preparing to put in more effort to take Frieren and retreat first, but a death-like warning suddenly struck towards the back of his head!
He felt a prickling sensation on his back!
Sein couldn't help but get goosebumps all over, like a startled animal!
He couldn't dodge!
The moment the attack arrived, Sein made the most sensible judgment!
Then, without the slightest hesitation, Sein opened his holy book and activated Magic!
"Goddess Magic - Goddess's Protection!"
"Crackle!"
A sound like glass shattering rang out!
The golden light sphere was heavily struck, hitting dozens of trees over dozens of meters, before finally completely turning into golden light and shattering across the ground!
I... survived!
Sein's forehead was covered in dense sweat beads.
His eyes, looking at the Chaos Flower, were full of vigilance!
This demon has considerable intelligence!
"Not good!"
A few seconds later!
Seeing that the Chaos Flower was slow to launch the next attack, Sein suddenly realized something was wrong and couldn't help but look towards Frieren!
"Frieren!"
Sein's hoarse shout rang out!
The Chaos Flower had actually abandoned him and launched a follow-up attack towards Frieren!
Dozens of terrifying vines, blotting out the sky, attacked the sleeping Frieren!
Each one was enough to leave Frieren without a burial place!
"Bang!"
First, a violent sound rang out!
Then, dozens of terrifying sounds and the trembling of the earth followed!
"F... Frieren..."
Sein shakily stood up.
He was utterly battered at this moment, looking exactly like a failure!
That's right!
He was indeed a failure!
The gorilla warrior was dead, and now even Frieren, who had led him on this journey, was dead!
She trusted him so much!
Perhaps he shouldn't have hesitated; he should have woken her up immediately when facing the Chaos Flower!
He was just a complete and utter failure!
And she was the legendary Mage of the Hero's party!
What right did he have to doubt her!
Tears of incompetence heavily fell to the ground!
Sein clenched his fists tightly, his eyes red, but he could only stare at the Chaos Flower with impotent rage!
"Roar!"
The Chaos Flower's roar suddenly rang out, pulling Sein back from the brink of despair!
That was a towering purple ethereal light!
The aura of destruction was almost enough to flatten everything!
And indeed, it was!
The smooth petals that the Chaos Flower originally used for defense were unable to reflect that terrifying attack and could only be heavily pierced!
Someone was fighting the Chaos Flower!
Sein's pupils constricted, staring intently in the direction the Chaos Flower was wary of!
However, that person's fighting style seemed extremely clumsy!
They clearly possessed overwhelming power, yet they didn't attack the Chaos Flower's core!
Instead, they were pointlessly attacking the Chaos Flower's vines!
"I.."
Sein looked at his hands in confusion.
Perhaps he should do something!
No matter who that person was, he should rush over and tell them the Chaos Flower's weakness!
"Core!"
Sein ran quickly towards the Chaos Flower, simultaneously shouting, his voice echoing through the Forest!
"Yulian!"
Yulian, dressed in a white robe, dodging the Chaos Flower's attacks with ghostly movements, his pupils constricted, and he immediately noticed Sein rushing towards him.
However, he didn't understand what Sein meant by the core?
Yulian simply continued to distract the Chaos Flower, leading it away from Frieren's location!
Yes, Frieren!
Seeing that the two had not returned for a long time, after setting up a defensive barrier around the house, Yulian rushed towards the Forest without stopping!
However, he got lost for a bit along the way, so he arrived a little late...
Hmm... something not to be spoken of to outsiders...
And Yulian, who happened to arrive just in time, saw that thrilling scene!
"Magic - Object Transfer Magic!"
Yulian stared intently at Frieren sleeping under the tree, and the next second Frieren appeared in his arms!
He held her tightly!
Jumping back and forth!
It sounded simple, but only Yulian knew how dangerous it was!
But it was all over now.
At this moment, Frieren was continuing to sleep peacefully within the barrier Yulian had set up.
She even occasionally muttered in her sleep, saying sleep talk.
"Holy crap!"
Lost in thought, Yulian was caught off guard and was heavily struck on the back by the Chaos Flower, sending him flying!
Damn it, still too weak!
The damage wasn't high, but the humiliation was maxed out!
Yulian, who was sent flying and landed face-first in the dirt, climbed up from the ground, his eyes looking at the Chaos Flower full of vigilance!
It had only been a few years since he last fought, and he had actually fallen to the point of being sent flying by a demon!
Yulian's vigilant eyes carried deep shame!
