White room.
【Cough cough——】
【We meet again, little brother.】
If I pretend to be hunched over, will I look like I'm seriously injured and haven't recovered yet?
[What a sharp and calm rant! ]
[Dang, dang, dang! I'm not hurt, but you're so mean to not care about me at all! Woohoo!]
Nothing to say?
If not, I'll leave.
[Hey! Don't go!]
【Don’t you care about your parents’ current situation? 】
Threats? I don't accept threats.
"Wow, damn it! Where's that innocent kid who said, 'I'll gladly accept any price'? How did you suddenly become a pure-blooded Vitrum warrior?"
[Alright, alright! Just kidding.]
[I will fulfill the agreement as usual, so please don't forget the agreement between us.]
Of course, our agreement was twenty-five days after the second dream, not now.
"There was an accident. Just listen to their explanation first! Don't be so impatient, like you've eaten dynamite!"
"I've said this before, right? There are special circumstances and individuals that can block my abilities. This time, I encountered that situation. It's terrible, terrible!"
[If nothing unexpected happens, the enemy I wanted you to help defeat must have found your parents' location before I did, but didn't offer any assistance. Instead, he hid near them, shielding them from my view.]
You should explain the timing first.
"That's my explanation! I planned to finish reading your parents' fate that day before bringing you over. After all, there was only one group left! You didn't have to choose, so I didn't want you to constantly see them in such embarrassing situations. It would really affect their great and glorious image!"
[However, I didn't see anything. After trying a little harder, I accidentally saw the other party's unusual behavior that deviated from the common sense of the world, and it backfired! It was extremely embarrassing!]
It took me forty days to recover. It was such a long time ago. I didn't dare pull you over at this moment. After all, I didn't know if the other person had left. I took a look at your state and saw that you were extremely angry, so I was even more afraid.
[Then I'll maintain the strategy of occasionally checking in on you to see if you've gone too far, but most of the time I'll just use my clairvoyance to check on the status of the entire human world.]
stop.
The Demon Emperor's clairvoyance can directly see the location of the precise target. As a god, why can't your clairvoyance reach this level?
There are many reasons.
[First, the Mystic Eye itself originated from the First Demon God. After the First Demon God was killed, his daughter, the half-magic Silica Chichiris, became the source of this world's Mystic Eye, not me. Second, strictly speaking, my clairvoyance is comparable to that of the Demon Emperor. After all, my eye ability was a top-grade gift from that generous First Demon God for free. However, the method you describe requires being in the same world to activate it. As I've said before, my true form isn't in the human world, so I can't do that!]
Then why don’t you help me find the Demon Emperor directly.
"I originally did it to earn your favor! That's nothing to be ashamed of! Besides, in a situation like Senis's, her magic eyes aren't working well, are they? When I came to my senses and tried to find her, I realized Chisilica Chisilis was gone too. Demigods are actually quite conspicuous in my field of vision, so I can easily find them without any special means. Apparently, she was hidden ahead of time."
Is she also in your target's hands?
[No, no, no. She's probably just an accomplice. During the First and Second Human-Demon Wars, there was a popular potion that could block all demonic eyes. Perhaps they're using that ability to hide the Demon Emperor? I know, I know! You're probably tempted to say you can find her by peering into the Demon Emperor's fate, but that's actually impossible. The Demon Emperor's fate is directly connected to the Demon Continent. Using that method would only allow you to directly see the rise and fall of the entire Demon Continent, which would be a terrible mistake.]
What an impeccable reason. So, did you come to me today because you have any confirmed news?
[Of course! Don’t you even look at who I am?]
[Anyway, I used divination combined with clairvoyance to find your parents' location.]
Are you grateful to me? Are you happy? Are you relieved?!
The enemy is the Dragon God Orsted?
Do you know anything about his appearance, strength, etc.?
[Huh? How did you know that? It took me decades to figure out who my enemy really is. You're making me doubt my own intelligence, damn it!]
This is not the point.
【Okay~】
The point is, I don’t know exactly.
[First, the Dragon God Orsted bears several curses, such as the curse that indiscriminately hates him. This is a legacy passed down from his father, who destroyed the four worlds out of selfish desire. It's the hatred of the world itself. Beyond that, I'm less clear. I encountered him and an apostle who survived. He said he seemed to be as skilled in magic as he was in swordsmanship, but rarely used it. Perhaps this is due to a curse that reduces his total mana or reduces his recovery speed.]
[Secondly, his swordsmanship is incredibly powerful. I don't know how he learned it, but all three schools are at the Divine level. It's said he's also inherited powerful ancient swordsmanship from outside the three schools. Furthermore, he's shrouded in a special fighting spirit, giving him such incredible defense that even a Saint-level sword of light wouldn't have any effect on him.]
[But generally speaking, for you, an enemy of this caliber is only good for training, right? After all, he's only about a hundred years old, right? No matter how much he's accumulated, he's still not on the same level as the Demon God Laplace. You just need to be on guard against the First Dragon God, perhaps he's left behind some killer tricks for his children.]
【However, let’s not talk about him anymore. 】
[Next time I pinpoint his general location, I'll bring you over to discuss strategy!]
[The point today is that the guy has left, and I've found out where your parents are.]
They are in a remote canyon in the northern part of the dense forest. The first snow has fallen, and their lives are in danger. This is a rough map of their location.
【Go and save it! 】
【Go and save it! 】
Save it!
[Save! ]

wake up.
Chapter 83 Heartbroken
Chapter 83 Heartbroken
Gawain sat up suddenly from the quilt.
Luo Qixi, who was standing beside him, was awakened from her trance. Her weak voice was sticky and hazy:
"Um...is it morning yet?"
"Not yet. Sorry to wake you."
"It's okay."
Luo Qixi rubbed her eyes and sat up, adjusting her thick white cotton nightgown with one hand, and continued to ask:
"Is there any emergency?"
"Well, I saw the human god."
Luo Qixi woke up immediately:
"Hey hey hey!!! Doesn't that mean we finally know where Mr. Roltz and the others are? Are they doing okay now?"
"It's not good, so I have to check the situation as soon as possible. Luo Qixi, you should continue to rest. I can't take you with me this time."
"What nonsense are you talking about? How can I sleep like this? Go quickly. I'll get up and pack my luggage. If you don't have anything else, you can pick me up on the way. If you don't come before noon, I'll go back to Silla by myself and you don't have to worry about me."
"Let's arrange it this way."
"Speaking of which, where are Mr. Roltz and the others now? Did we miss them somewhere?"
After such an intensive worldwide search for so long without any results, they had long suspected that the ancient forest might be somewhere that had been preserved for special reasons such as relics or barriers.
"No, in the dense forest."
"how come?"
"It's not surprising, after all, even the first round of blanket searches isn't complete."
"Are we really unlucky?"
"It's not a foregone conclusion, so it's normal for it to fail."
Gawain comforted her, rubbing her head. He stood up and took off his clothes on the spot. He put on a tight-fitting metal wire battle suit, then quickly put on his armor and said goodbye to her without taking anything with him.
"see you later."
"Bon Voyage."
Tearing through the atmosphere, Gawain pushed his speed to hundreds of times the speed of sound in the blink of an eye. They happened to be camping in the Red Dragon Mountains near the Red Dragon's jaw, less than 7,000 kilometers away from their destination, very close.
Six seconds later.
Gawain quickly slowed down, crashing into the air at over a hundred times the speed of sound, causing a massive explosion high in the sky. If his parents were facing a threat from a monster, such a movement would at least provide a short-term deterrent.
On the other hand, he was a little too anxious and failed to control the deceleration distance.
"It seems to be there, um, it looks like there really is a barrier? But there are no ruins or other buildings nearby. Is it inside the barrier?"
Gawain landed vertically and used his own magic power to disrupt and destroy the barrier covering an area of more than ten kilometers. When his magic eye opened, he found that the concentration of magic power in this area was no different from that in other places, and there was no possibility of any remaining ancient barrier.
"I can't see any trace of the ruins. Where are Mom and Dad?"
He wandered through the dense forest for a while before finally coming upon a well-hidden underground shelter covered in moss. Even a professional hunter wouldn't be able to find such a well-hidden entrance in the dense ancient forest, would they?
Of course, although it was well concealed, Gawain still saw a few traces of life that were very obvious to him, but most of them were covered by last night's snowfall, making it impossible to make a more detailed identification, but there was no need to do so.
He raised the corners of his mouth and called out:
"Mom Debbie? Dad Roz?"
no respond.
"I'm Gawain, don't be nervous, I'm going to open the door."
Gawain landed on the ground, bent down, and pushed open the moss-covered wooden door of the shelter. Dry dust fell, creaking, and drew clear and slow arcs in front of his eyes. The moist smell of moss and the smell of charcoal wafted out from the shelter.
Pushed away.
Mom and Dad are at home.
Dad sat on the ground, just like he did in the first winter, doing the wood crafts he was particularly good at in front of the warm fire. Really, with such skills, being a carpenter would be more promising than being a hunter, right?
Mom's on the chair, knitting, right? Every winter, she knits for the whole family. But that's not entirely true. After all, she and Dad are very frugal, and usually only make new sweaters, scarves, hoods, and hats for my growing sister and me. Actually, there are also woolen pants, but my sister thinks she looks awkward in them, like a fat grandmother with inconvenient legs, so she doesn't allow me to mention it.
I got home and it was so cold outside.
When the door was closed, the fireplace suddenly became super bright.
I haven't been home for several days, and the situation at home has become a little different. My parents invited me to have tea, and my father showed off to me the clay doll that my mother had made recently. But my mother was unhappy. She said that such a semi-finished product should not be taken out to embarrass her, and she also pulled my father's ear.
But I think it looks very nice.
Mom has always loved these things, right? Or art? Probably beautiful things, since she's a very girly person! My sister probably inherited that, too, so she's particularly fond of gardening, flower arrangement, painting, and literature, right?
Of course, it's hard to tell who these two dolls are made of, but my sister and I have our names written on the base, so they must be us! Hell, even the plates and cups at home have stick figures of my sister and me.
Oh, and there are wreaths.
They are all made of flowers and plants that I don’t recognize very well. They are said to be specialties of the dense forest area. They are very beautiful, not inferior to the wild flowers in the village, but they are a little shriveled. They said they were made for me before, but unfortunately I didn’t go home.
I'm really sorry!
I accidentally took a long detour!
Mom and Dad will definitely forgive me, right?
There's something scribbled on the wall with charcoal. Couldn't that be Mom or Dad's work? Seriously, Sylphy is still so naughty even at this age.
【Mom and Dad always love you very much】
[Gao Wen, take care of yourself]
I didn't understand.
But I still smiled happily.
I took my mother's hanging body down and gently placed it on the simple bed, next to my father's body with a bite on the neck.
I then collected the gifts that my parents left for my sister and me and placed them next to them.
I lay down between them.
Come to think of it, did I ever sleep with my parents? I don't think so. I'm so sorry, I was a very distant child.
Fortunately, my parents have never disliked me.
Let's make up for this today! I may have grown up a bit, but I'm still a childish fool after all! I'm sure Mom and Dad won't mind, right? I'll just be willful this once!
