She just believed in Ai'er for some reason.

Elle walked over to Lily's bed and sat down.

Lily made way for him, but then she realized that Ai'er seemed to have something to say, so she could only rub her eyes and try to stay awake.

"Lily."

"……What's wrong?"

Ai'er said: "...I just talked to that dragon for a while."

"What did you say?"

"She told us that she has clues about the [Ownerless Artifact]." Ai'er said:

"——That's a divine weapon, the embodiment of God's power. If you get it... even if you use it as a weapon, as long as there is a suitable person, you might be able to release a blow that is beyond the limits of the world and rivals the five world gods. Not to mention other aspects... even the wound left by the Demon King on Lily's body can be easily covered with the new rules."

"..."

"Only weapons that contain the rules of the five major world gods can be called artifacts. The artifacts of each god are controlled by themselves... but if it is [ownerless], perhaps there is a possibility of obtaining it."

However, Ai'er's words suddenly hesitated again.

Lily realized what Elle meant.

She understood that Ai'er was once again in a state of hesitation.

This time, I am just seeking answers from Lily.

"But how should I put it..." Ai'er said, "First of all, the dragon clan is very confusing. We don't know whether what she said is true or false, nor do we know what her ultimate goal is. Even the existence of the ownerless artifact is questionable."

Yarti itself is questionable.

"Second point. Even if the divine weapon Yalti mentioned really exists and is going to appear here, it is hard to understand why the divine weapon is ownerless. Would the living gods really materialize the rules they control and give them to humans? If it is not a product of the gods, then where did this divine weapon come from?"

The artifact itself is questionable.

"Finally... even if the clues Yarti mentioned can help us get ahead, we may face competition from people of several major races... and we may even encounter people of our own race."

It is doubtful whether it can be snatched away.

"According to Yaerti, in the past half month, the Covenant Network has received dozens of teleportation requests near Erit. This is only the information that Yaerti can query with her authority. I don't know how many big guys have come in secret. Those people are probably already hiding in this human area, concealing their identities as advanced races."

In order to avoid being found, Ai'er and his companions almost cut off contact with the outside world.

Therefore, Ai'er couldn't even understand what was going on within the elves.

With Ai'er's strength...she could even unite with the dragon clan.

It is difficult to actually achieve the goal.

Yaerti may not even have more clues than those who may be closer to God.

"So, what do you think, Elle?"

Lily asked, looking at Elle.

"Because of my escape... I haven't logged into the Covenant Network for a long time. I haven't even contacted my clan. There is a solid wall between us and the information we need." Ai'er said hesitantly:

"Besides, Lily and Coco both need to be taken care of now. If I rely on myself alone, I am not sure that I can... join the war for the artifact..."

At this point, Lily already understood what El meant.

"Then let's go." Lily said: "... Let's go to the next place."

"——That's what I thought." Ai'er said suddenly.

Lily was startled, and then she saw Ai'er staring at her with her blue eyes.

"Then I thought... the broken end of Lily's arm was left there for us. I also know that even now, Lily is enduring the pain in her body... but she has never told me or Coco."

——The pain will disappear only when the wound heals.

But the broken end of Lily's arm remained open.

Just imagining it makes one's teeth tremble.

"But, if it's a divine weapon...if it contains divine rules, it will definitely be able to erase the concept of the Demon King." Ai'er said: "After the injury is healed, Lily will be able to use magic again. By then, the rest of the journey will be much easier..."

"So," Lily asked, "what does Elle think?"

"I want to grab it and try."

"Even if Yarti's words are not necessarily trustworthy?"

"Ah."

"Even if the artifact exists, it's not necessarily true?"

"Ah."

“Even if you work hard, you may not get it?”

"Ah."

The elf stared into Lily's eyes.

Any trace of hesitation was wiped out by the determined light.

Lily then realized that she had misunderstood something.

Ai'er didn't come to me to get my questions answered.

Ai'er, I'm here to declare myself.

I will definitely go and grab the divine weapon - this point.

Lily was silent for a long time.

She didn't respond to Elle's words as she did before.

at last.

Lily shook her head.

"……it's useless."

189. Make an alliance here

"it's useless?……"

Ai'er was stunned, as if she had not expected Lily to answer like this.

"Al, give up. It's useless."

"Why do you say that?"

"..." Lily didn't answer.

Lily, who had been trying hard to stay alert, seemed to be becoming sleepy again.

It was as if he didn't care at all about this matter, which was closely related to him.

Perhaps, she simply didn’t care…what kind of harm her injuries would cause to herself.

Ai'er watched Lily yawning nonchalantly, as if she was about to turn over and fall asleep again.

For some reason, even Ai'er felt a little angry.

Even more, it's out of control.

"boom--"

Finally, Ai'er grabbed Lily's shoulders tightly.

He pushed Lily's petite body violently onto the bed.

He leaned over and glared at Lily fiercely with her lavender eyes that she couldn't look away from.

"I haven't even tried it yet, how can you say it's useless?!"

Ai'er's rare shouting frightened Lily instantly, and her eyes became dull.

"So... Lily, you're always like this! Always like this, talking to yourself!"

Elle stood up and left the room alone, leaving Lily behind.

He only left behind that final declaration:

"That so-called [Ownerless Artifact]... I will definitely work hard to get it. Lily, just wait."

The door slammed shut.

Lily rubbed her sleepy eyes and watched Ai'er disappear behind the door.

Staying alone in the empty room, I felt a little lost.

It was rare that Ai'er got angry.

...Lately, I seem to always make Ai'er and Coco angry.

Why is this?

……

The halo dissipated between the two people.

"Then this is all right, right? Allies." Yarti asked.

"...Yeah. No problem." Ai'er said:

"…It seems that everything you said before is indeed true."

The two of them had signed a three-tier contract. The first tier was a subjective connection of consciousness based on the magic circuit. The second tier was an objective connection of events witnessed by the God of the World, with the seal of race as collateral. The third tier was a record of contractual events based on the "covenant" of different races as the final arbitration.

The event record is kept by Ai'er and Ya'erdi respectively. Due to the fear of exposing their identities and addresses, it has not been uploaded to the covenant network for the time being, but it will be automatically uploaded after the death of one of the contracting parties. The contract time record has been modified, and the secret pattern is kept by each of them, so there is no worry about unauthorized tampering.

There are many ways to make a contract, and Ai'er chose the one that is more appropriate to the situation and has the most widespread application.

"...I just realized now that in the eyes of those angels, you are still a fugitive. Al Bernier."

"You won't tell anyone."

"Ah, after all, we are allies now."
