Manga Born to Be King

　　(Just not being able to talk to him...it's so disturbing, isn't it...)

　　Even the feared Lyu, known as the [Gale Wind], was eroded by a deep darkness.

　　The shameless place on this floor is here.The light source is so few that the middle level can't compare at all, and darkness spreads everywhere.And darkness can make people feel infinitely disturbed, destroy personality, and cause emotional fluctuations.Especially in a desperate situation, even the sense of time becomes paralyzed.

　　Three hundred seconds is too long.Now, how long has it been?Next, how long do you have to hold on?

　　She asked about the internal clock developed during the expedition.After asking, she bit her lip when she heard the answer that came back.So long, so long.Not even half.

　　If it was an ordinary adventurer, it wouldn't be surprising if he could not endure the pain.With a swipe, Lyu glanced at the skeleton with the dagger in its chest. .

Chapter 372

　　Nangong Xiao's mind.

　　"Mr. Nangong, you are here."

　　Nangong Xiao opened her tightly closed eyes to check the current situation.A man was standing in front of Nangong Xiao and made a "please" gesture.

　　"Yes, here I am. ~Mr. John."

　　A blond man in his thirties stood in front of Nangong Xiao with a briefcase in his hand.

　　"Because you have graduated, according to Dean Victoria's will, this money will be handed over to you, please - you use it properly."

　　"I see."

　　Seventeen-year-old Nangong Xiao took the documents that John handed over.

　　"Dean Victoria... Is there anything else to explain?"

　　"Well, in addition to transferring the orphanage to Ms. Victoria, she has one thing deposited with me."

　　Victoria?Nangong Xiao remembered that this person was the great-granddaughter of Dean Victoria, probably three or four years older than him.

　　"Excuse me, Mr. John. Please give me the things now."

　　"This........"

　　John hesitated, although this thing was originally intended to be given to Nangong Xiao, but the time has not yet reached the stipulated time, so I don't know if it should be given to him now.

　　——If he must take it, then give it to him in advance.

　　Dean Victoria's orders echoed in his mind.

　　(I see, Dean Victoria, it's too late to see you one last time....)

　　"Okay, then I have a question I must ask you. If your answer doesn't satisfy me, I won't give it to you right now."

　　John's eyes have changed, staring at Nangong Xiao with serious eyes.

　　"If you have gained unparalleled power, can you stick to your heart?"

　　(Can I....if I, an ordinary person, gain this kind of power.)

　　"of course can!"

　　Nangong Xiao met John's eyes at the same time.

　　(His words are not false! I can feel the meaning in his eyes.)

　　After looking at each other for a long time, John sighed.

　　"I didn't expect Dean Victoria to choose you in the end."

　　- Obviously not the best choice.

　　Then John flipped a switch, and suddenly a hole appeared in the floor, and the stairs sprawled out of nowhere.

　　"What exactly is going on!"

　　Originally, I should be an ordinary person, just like other people. In class, watching shows, and playing games, I am no different from other people of the same age.If he hadn't experienced that incident when he was fourteen years old, perhaps the ghosts and other supernatural events had nothing to do with him.

　　"I do not know either."

　　John replied.Nangong Xiao looked at him, making sure that the other party didn't lie.

　　"I believe you."

　　With doubts, Nangong Xiao and John walked down together.However, I didn't expect that this staircase actually took half an hour to reach the destination.You know, the usual stairs are so slow because you have to walk on the left and right stairs.As long as this stair goes straight forward, it is enough, but it still takes half an hour.

　　(How far is this from the ground, a few hundred meters? Or a few kilometers?)

　　He had no way of knowing this, and could only go down the only channel.Then, a gate appeared in his field of vision.

　　Nangong Xiao asked John who was leading the way in front, "Is it here?"

　　"No, we have to go further."

　　However, John's answer surprised Nangong Xiao.

　　(This is not the end?)

　　"Next time, you can only go alone."

　　"what?"

　　Regarding Nangongxiao's question, John explained: "Only you can unlock the door of the passage below, so you can only go down alone."

　　"OK then."

　　Nangong Xiao put his right hand on a touch screen slightly larger than his palm with anxiety, and then the door was unlocked.It's just that there is a gate three meters away from this gate. Nangong Xiao waved goodbye to John and continued to walk forward.

　　After opening the second door, he found an elevator ahead, and a strong sense of unease rushed into his mind.Resisting the unease in his heart, he entered the elevator, only to find that the elevator has only one destination.

　　(It’s so strange that you can’t go back?!)

...... 0 ......

　　"Then only go here."

　　Finally he pressed it.With a sense of weightlessness, Nangong Xiao knew that the elevator was now running fast.

　　However, something is not right.It's really not right.How is it possible for the elevator to run so fast.... so fast?However, a minute later, Nangong Xiao, who was at his destination, was completely stunned.

　　Where he is now turned out to be an island? !

　　You know, the place where he was before was inland. This elevator is faster than the plane?

　　Looking around, the only thing worth noting is the diamond-shaped gemstone floating in the air and the size of a palm.The fire-red gemstone seemed to be calling out to him.

　　"Come on, kid..."

　　"Accept this power, it's just tailor-made for you, I've never seen someone who fits so well."

　　"After accepting this power, what price do I have to pay?"

　　Nangong Xiao still had a trace of reason, and didn't have the idea of ​​directly listening to this voice.

　　"Help me stop the pests that harm the world, yes, get rid of them."

　　"who are you?"

　　"I am..."

　　- Suzaku..

Chapter 373

　　There was a sound from the entrance of the hall.

　　She raised her head.What appeared in the darkness were three bone masks, a new batch of "Bone Sheep", and the recluses who were greedy for death reappeared.Lyu bit her lip and picked up the small dagger that was stuck on the ground.

　　(Three at the same time—)

　　No way, I can't finish it, I will enter the hall.

　　She let out a bitter voice, but even so, she aimed at the Bone Goat who was charging, and threw two small swords.

　　One hit beautifully, and the other was penetrated a moment later, and the two shadows collapsed.The other one ran and was about to charge into the hall when an energy bomb hit it in the head.

　　Clap, the sound of bones losing strength and falling to the ground sounded.

　　"Five minutes have passed."

　　Lyu was told so briefly, and after a while, he understood the meaning.It seemed that even when he fell asleep, Nangong Xiao's body was counting the time unconsciously, and at the same time he was alerting the surroundings.Being alert even in sleep is indeed an adventurer's skill, but it's amazing that Nangong Xiao has mastered this.

　　"Sorry for not doing my duty. I'm not concentrating enough."

　　"it does not matter."

　　"This time, please, Lyu, get some sleep."

　　"I'm sorry, I'll be more respectful than obedient."

　　Having survived these "five minutes", the fact that Lyu was freed from the pressure.The next moment, invisible fatigue suddenly surged up.The eyelids became as heavy as lead.

　　"Please destroy the walls. In order to prevent monsters from being born."

　　"I understand."

　　The deep sleeping golem wraps itself around like a cradle.Lyu couldn't resist.

　　"You must be tired..."

　　Unlike Nangong Xiao, who has surpassed the limits of human beings, Lyu's body is still in the state of "human". Although she is many times stronger than ordinary people, she has been chasing those people for the past few days, and she doesn't have much time to rest. Tired already.

　　——Kaguya, Laila, Noin, Neze.

　　——Asta, Leyana, Celti, Mariu.

　　Even if they called out the names of their comrades, they couldn't get there, and everyone left Lyu's side, only Lyu was left behind by them.

　　"Alize..."

　　Fragments of words fell on the small lips, and the whisper that fell quietly was heard by Nangong Xiao.

　　"Did you dream about it again?"
