A strong wind blew.

All the roots of the surrounding trees were uprooted, and the forest covered with green leaves was turned into a swampy field in an instant.

Filina, who was running blindly forward led by Henry’s hand, turned her head back.

The monster soared high in the sky and was moving its huge wings on the spot. A strong wind shook her hair.

But its target seemed to be concentrated in only one place.

From the beginning to the end, the monster’s gaze was directed only toward Filina and Henry.

She swallowed her saliva and opened her mouth.

“Sir Argeny.”

“Yes.”

Henry’s amethyst-like eyes glanced at Filina.

She parted her lips while watching the demonic monster flapping its swings vigorously.

“First…is it possible to run away?”

To Filina’s question, Henry raised his lips softly and answered.

“Do you think it is possible?”

“It meant impossible.”

She looked at Henry with an absurd face. But that didn’t last long either. The monster began to rush toward them at a very high speed.

Along the path where the huge monster flew, the trees that had stretched out were split, creating a desolate land.

From the moment Henry grabbed her hand, they ran nonstop for a long time, but the monster caught up with them in an instant.

Before long, black wings flew past Filina and Henry, and appeared in front of them.

She frowned and raised one arm to cover her face. The strong wind blew, making it impossible to see clearly.

The monster was flapping its large wings while facing them. There was tremendous pressure.

Henry threw the wooden sword he was holding in his hand on the floor, and pulled out a huge long sword from his waist. The sound of a sharp blade was fierce.

His other hand was still holding Filina’s hand tightly. She lowered her gaze and looked at Henry’s hand.

From before, the hot heat was completely transmitted to Filina’s skin.

At that time, the monster who was facing them in front gathered both wings and rushed towards them.

Henry used his sword to block the sharp beak of the monster. Filina frowned and struggled to shake off his hand.

It was absurd to use one hand to hold a sword against such a large monster.

But he didn’t want to let go of Filina’s hand.

What the hell was he thinking?

She frowned with an annoyed face.

“Let go of my hand! To hold a sword with one hand, what are you thinking?!”

As Henry pushed the sword hard, the monster let out a strange cry and backed away. He turned to Filina and said in a relaxed voice.

“I’m holding you in case you’ll run away alone.”

Filina said with a puzzled face.

“Why would I run away alone? I’m not that ungrateful!”
