Arad's unruly savior

The central region of the Earth Rail is inhabited by a large number of orcs, including the cat-like Giza. This race has fleshy claws and furry skin. They do not use magic but are very agile and prefer to eat fish.

The leader of the orc race, Super Speed ​​Gakarina, also belongs to the Giza race.

There's also the alien race, to which astrologer Rossello belongs, whose appearance is very similar to that of a cat.

Bubi, a member of the Raidi tribe with black hair on the left and white hair on the right, said that although the tribespeople in the village longed for the living environment in the center of the Earth Rail, their racial instincts made them very afraid of the Alien Tribe and the Giza Tribe, which is typical of mice seeing cats, so they were afraid to go there.

"Ah, this..." Xiao Su and Yi Mi Wu couldn't help but slap their foreheads.

Imiwu indeed failed to consider the issue of adaptation between races; the Retti race are rats, while the Giza and the Otherworldly races are cats.

"I'll ask around tomorrow if there's a better solution," Xiao Su offered to help. She had a good impression of the Leidi tribe and readily cooperated with the aloof and domineering Yimi Wu and Crazy Bear.

"Really? That's too much trouble for you. Actually, if there's no other way, we'd be fine living here forever." Bubi quickly thanked her. Anyone who could walk with the Goddess of the Underworld must be an extraordinary person.

Xiao Su gradually learned that the village was not only inhabited by members of the Raidi tribe, but also by a small number of peace-loving humans and elf-like life forms. Different races helped each other and maintained a friendly and harmonious relationship.

The reason we can't see any people in the village now is because they recently took some goods to the market in the big city to exchange for other essential supplies.

Sometimes trusted merchants would enter the village, and of course, some would stumble into the village by chance. The Raidi tribe would always treat them warmly. If the other party had ill intentions, the items left by the Goddess of the Moon would be enough to deal with most dangerous situations.

Although the village is not very large, roughly the size of a small town, it is small but complete. The village has blacksmiths, alchemists, doctors, and even a school that teaches archaeology.

As evening approached and darkness fell, the two people and the bear left the idyllic village.

Before leaving, Xiao Su took out a basic book about magical materials and gave it to the Lei Di tribe, telling them that the large areas of exposed magic crystals outside the village could be mined appropriately, as they would be very useful whether for personal use or for sale.

“Look, the book says the source is… Taracuta…” Bubi carefully placed the book on the table, afraid that he might drop it and break it.

“I’ve heard of Taracuta. It’s a very powerful force, one of the top experts in the Demon Realm, much stronger than our Raidi tribe.” Ai’s tail twitched involuntarily, feeling that this book was priceless and a precious gift.

……

On the way back to the Dark Mansion, Imiwu recalled, "I remember that the Duchy of Belmar, where the Yellow-Faced Woman lived, was originally a group of people who hated war and advocated peace gathered in what is now Huttonmar, and then Belmar came into being."

"Mmm." Xiao Su gently tapped her smooth chin and added:
"However, this is only a superficial explanation. The deeper reason is that the Grand Cathedral of Remedia, the first rank of the Cleric Order, is located there. Living there provides protection from the cleric. In addition, the great mage Mar used magic to transform the area into a habitable oasis more than ten years before the establishment of the duchy."

"Therefore, the fact that people chose Huttonmar as their refuge and that the Duchy of Belmar was later established was not purely accidental, but rather the result of a combination of factors."

In her spare time, she has studied the history of the Arad continent very seriously, reading through various classic texts. Her current knowledge base definitely makes her an excellent scholar. She can talk about the history of any place and any time in great detail.

Imiwu wasn't particularly interested in the history of the Arad continent, and her attention quickly wandered. After pondering for a while, she asked:

"When did the First Hermit Mar turn the desert into an oasis?"

"In the year 471 of the Arad Calendar, Lord Mar set up a magic circle in the central desert of the Arad continent, turning the desert into an oasis," Xiao Su answered easily after a moment's thought.

When was the Principality of Belmar founded?

"Arad Calendar 483".

Imi nodded first, then guessed and said:

"The rulers of the Principality of Belmar adopted the surname Mar to establish nominal legitimacy and claimed to be descendants of Mar."

In other words, this period of time was just right, allowing the great mage Mar to leave behind offspring who would begin to grow up... Of course, this was only for the sake of legitimacy and prestige for the country, and there was actually no blood relation between them and Mar.

In stark contrast to the great magician Mar, who was utterly incorruptible, Ye Lin truly ensured that the future heirs of all nations bore his bloodline, including the Delos Empire.

Regardless of whether the one who inherits the throne of the Delos Empire is the eldest princess, who is outwardly hailed as a model of nobility and a perfect lady, but secretly offers herself to others and has a crazy desire for power, or the second princess, who is outwardly gentle, virtuous, and elegant, but secretly twisted and morbid, or the third princess, who is always adventuring and has excellent leg skills, in the end, they will all give birth to his children.

Dark house.

Powerful natural magic ensures that the roses near the mansion bloom year-round, displaying a variety of vibrant colors. In addition, the corpses buried underground provide excellent fertilizer.

Roses are the flower that Imiwu likes, and they were also the favorite flower of the previous generation of the Moon Goddess.

The butler, Crazy Bear, who was walking in front, pushed open the castle gate.

The highest-ranking person in the Dark Mansion is naturally Imiwu, followed by Mad Bear, then the servant Diorbe, then those who sought help and successfully arrived at the Dark Mansion, then the second to last is Mad Bear's broom, and last is the old hag Yuena.

As soon as she entered the castle gates, the little witch's smiling face suddenly froze, as if she had been petrified by a snake demon's spell, and then her stiff lips twitched a few times.

Yuena was chewing her food around the hot pot, her cheeks puffing out slightly. Hearing the door open, she turned around, waved at the little witch, and mumbled, "Why are you only coming back now? I was hungry, so I ate first."

"You old hag, what are you doing in my house? Diorbe, get her out of here! She's behind the broom!" Imiwu roared as she strode closer, shamelessly sitting on her favorite cushion.

It's dirty; we can't use it anymore.

Diorbe kept her head down, pretending not to hear her master's command; this was the one thing she couldn't obey. Yuena's beautiful eyes crinkled into crescent moons as she said smugly, "Is my arrival in the Demon Realm such a shocking thing?"

Every quarter, the Grand Cathedral of Remedia routinely sends people to the Eye of Remedia, the second rank in the Earth Orbit Center, to conduct inspections. Since going to the Demon Realm is not a simple matter, it is usually done by her, or Grandis, or Obes.

As for Hina, she already slept sixteen hours a day, and after the weather turned cold, she became even less willing to go out. She asked others to bring her food every day, and her bedding was constantly soaked in the holy power of the archangel. If it weren't for the fact that she was forcibly dragged out to wash and air it every now and then, it would almost have become a powerful holy relic.

Yu Xia has also returned. Perhaps because the dark house is so warm and she ate spicy food, her little face is flushed and she looks especially adorable. She is sucking on a straw with yogurt in her cup.

She had finished her work. Using the magic book's recording ability, she accurately located the dark magic organization. The overwhelming swarm of erosion insects transformed into a tsunami that mercilessly submerged the headquarters. After the insect tide receded, not a single drop of blood was left behind.

After sitting down, Yimi glanced at the food and her mood instantly turned as turbulent as the broth of a hot pot. She said angrily, "You actually ate so much of the meat I carefully prepared. Be careful you don't turn into a pot-bellied fat pig."

Diorbe said softly, "There are still sliced ​​meat in the kitchen, I'll go get it."

"Bring everything to us. Don't give that old hag a single piece of meat; she only deserves to sit at the same table as a broom," Imiwu said sternly.

Just as Imiwu and Yuena were fighting over food and trying to find a way to make the other wash their feet, "bang, bang," someone banged loudly on the door of the dark mansion.

After obtaining permission from the witch Imi, Diolbe left the dining table and went to the castle gate, where he slowly opened the heavy magic door.

“The Dark Mansion, I’ve finally found it…” From behind the door, Sonar’s face, which was full of relief after surviving the ordeal, gradually appeared. Her left arm was the color of withered wood. When she saw Diorbe, her expression suddenly turned ugly. Then, realizing where she was, she tried her best to hide her expression.

She had followed Diolbe to the settlement of the Retti tribe, but due to the mysterious barrier surrounding the village and their deliberate obstruction, she was unable to enter the harmonious village.

She finally waited for Diolbe to return with a basket full of vegetables, and followed her all the way back to the entrance of the Doll Forest, only to have her disappear again in the blink of an eye.

Diolbe had absolutely no intention of taking her along.

After a fierce internal struggle, and with no other choice, she had to venture into the Puppet Forest again to break the curse on her. This time, she was lucky; although she triggered several traps along the way, none of them were fatal. Only one of her arms turned into a numb piece of wood.

wow~
Before Sonnar could even see what was inside the castle, his vision blurred, and he was overcome with a dizzying, spinning sensation, losing consciousness in an instant.

She didn't know how much time had passed, but when she regained consciousness, the castle full of roses was no longer in front of her. Ancient trees surrounded her, the light was dark, and there was no sound. She was sitting on a metal bench that looked very ordinary.

"This is……"

Before Sonnar could fully recover, a terrifying negative emotion inexplicably welled up in her heart.

A profound despair washed over her, and her vision turned into a monotonous black and white. First, there was a sense of loss, as if something she cherished had been completely lost, as if someone had suddenly grabbed her heart, choked her pulse, and extracted something precious from her soul, refusing to give it back to her.

Sonar clutched her chest, her face turning deathly pale. She seemed to have lost something very precious, but she didn't know what it was.

Slowly, her vision blurred again, and she collapsed helplessly to the ground... Just as her consciousness was about to fade, a voice awakened her, her soul light quickly gathered, and her eyes regained the ability to see color.

In that instant, the despair she had felt earlier vanished like the dawn breaking. Sonar felt a sense of relief, as if she had been reborn. The joy from the bottom of her heart refreshed her spirit, and a wisp of vitality surged from the depths of her soul, as if it had slipped through the fingers of death.

Imiwu held the Naughty Rabbit plush toy in her arms, looking at Sonar with emotionless eyes. Sonar was sitting on the chair that had been moved from the door of the emergency room of the Heavenly Hospital.

She said calmly:

“I remember you, healer Sonnar, one of Dakota’s former subordinates.”

“Your Majesty, Goddess of the Underworld…” Sonar’s voice was hoarse.

Imi interrupted the other person and continued:

“The Ninth Quarantine Zone is where the Kashul faction uses slaves to mine Terrastone. You are nominally treating those slaves, but you can’t cure them. It’s just a temporary measure to slow down their death. The ultimate goal is to exploit the slaves’ life force.”

"However, compared to those high-ranking officials, your behavior can be considered that of a good person... Hehe, how ridiculous."

"I will spare your life for now and give you a chance to explain your demands."

The most famous thing about the healer Sonar is that she, a human woman from the demon realm, actually fell in love with a "monster" of the Grimlin race, Yem the Dancer of Shadows, who was once in charge of the royal entertainment in the Harlem region and a high-ranking member of the Kashu faction.

The Grimlin race is extremely ugly. Even Yem, a highly evolved being, can only walk upright and has a rudimentary human-like appearance. His skin is covered with toad-like bumps, and his mouth is a large frog mouth.

Sonar believed that she and Yem were truly in love, and disregarded the pursuit to follow her to the death.

Ye Lin was slightly moved and considered letting the star-crossed lovers go, thus fulfilling their love that transcended species. However, when faced with mortal danger, Yem pushed Sonar out without hesitation, only caring about his own escape, and the filter of true love shattered instantly.

Later, Yem was killed, but the desperate Sonar survived.

Sonnar knew this wasn't the time for idle chatter, and quickly said:
"Do you know the legend of Mount Koretkiel? That mountain is the highest in the Demon Realm, reaching straight into the clouds. Legend has it that a god fell there, and an unknown deity died in the mountain."

"Legend has it that when that god fell, he released a powerful energy that could shake the universe and leave behind the laws of the universe."
