In the forest of "Tenrou Island", as a burst of fire flashed, a tree with a thick body began to tilt slowly, and then hit the ground with a loud 'bang' sound.
The remaining tree stumps showed signs of scorch, and smoke rose repeatedly.
(...To this extent, this is almost what it feels like.)
Seeing the damage she had caused, the little girl casually waved away the magic power in her upper right hand.
Although the power just now was quite impressive, her face still had an unsatisfactory look.
After constant improvement and experimentation, Zella finally had a certain basic understanding of his fire magic.
After all, she already has the aptitude for the fire attribute in this life, so she will naturally find the most convenient way to get started.
Although she is not yet able to control her arms, and the magic capacity of her young body limits her output, she can still fire some fireballs and burn down two houses.
But that alone is not enough.
X679, if she remembers correctly, this should be the year when the "Blue Skull" guild attacked the entire island and destroyed everything here.
And if nothing happens to her, she will die when the guild is invaded.
Sure enough, even if there is no system, she will be reborn as a being who will take advantage of it immediately.
What's worse is that not only can't she use her ability as an [Elf] this time, but she can't even see the [Recovery Rate], so she doesn't know when she will face 'death', so she can't guess the purpose of the opponent's attack.
The specific time.
This feeling of uncertainty made her very depressed.
Half a year has passed now, and judging from the clothes in her memory, she does not think that the other party will attack in autumn or winter.
So, it should be these two months.
Of course, the possibility that the other party would not attack has been ruled out long ago, because Zera had already made indirect inquiries, and the friction between the two guilds "Red Lizard" and "Blue Skeleton" has been increasing. It doesn't matter when the war will start.
Not surprisingly.
It was just because one was on a small island and the other was in a coastal city on land that there was no immediate outbreak.
(…Although I’ve reminded you, but…sigh…)
Thinking of Giself's arrogant look, Zella was as big as one.
After all, this is the place where she has lived for six years. Besides, everyone treats her well and she is not a cold-blooded animal. Naturally, she does not want this place to be destroyed.
It's a pity that she is just a "kid" with a slight tongue, and her random words will cause chaos on the island. She had to pretend that she had seen someone with a blue skull tattoo on the island, although it also caused chaos.
He received a certain degree of attention, but it didn't take long for the people in the guild to take it seriously.
Fortunately, her cheap father did not ignore her. After many 'reminders', he finally promised that he had recently invited a powerful magician, claiming that he would never come back, but the little girl had never seen him.
Therefore, the uneasy Zella still practiced magic and patrolled carefully in the forest along the coast every day, hoping to detect abnormalities as soon as possible.
Now we can only hope that the person invited is a truly 'powerful' magician.
…
Sitting on the shore of the cape under a big tree with a view of the sea, Zera, who had finished her practice today, quietly looked at the reflected waves of the sea.
(..."World" and "Power"...?)
Thinking about some words that only she understood, the little girl's face was slightly absent-minded.
It can be said that this is already her third world in reincarnation, and this is the first time she has been troubled by the issue of strength.
The feeling of powerlessness this time also made her understand that not every time you are born with power, and not every world is a peaceful era. If you don't have the means to protect yourself, let alone creating the world and fulfilling the agreement.
If it's wonderful to go up there, one day she will die from the bento's fate.
And now she is indeed facing such a dilemma.
(How can I become stronger...)
Some little girls with chest tightness buried their faces between their knees and kept thinking about possible ways.
Lost magic? Second source of magic? Or...
(These are all unrealistic things, alas...)
With a wry smile, after much deliberation, there seemed to be nothing suitable for her development at this stage...
Of course, she could actually choose to hide in the merchant ship and run away, so that she wouldn't have such 'trouble'.
But if she does this, she probably won't be able to forgive herself no matter how many lifetimes she takes.
Because the one who survives is just a ‘walking corpse’.
…
The sky gradually darkened, and after rejecting all imaginable methods one by one, the little girl, who was at her wits' end, finally got up helplessly.
Anyway, she has decided that when there is really no way out, she will guide the consciousness of [Elf] to come down, and if she wants to play, she will play a big one!
As for the price? Haha, that’s something we’ll talk about when we can survive.
In fact, if I think about it again, maybe she is too pessimistic. The Mage Guild in this era is not like the future. There is a lot of water in it. Since the two guilds can maintain a stalemate for so long, it means that there is not much difference in overall strength.
big.
Now that we have defenses and reinforcements, it is natural to repel the enemy, right?
With optimistic thoughts that made her mood slightly better, Zella stretched herself "comfortably" and prepared to return to the guild before the sun set.
--Ding.
"——!"
(…What is this sound?)
A strange feeling suddenly arises in my heart.
He turned around suddenly and saw the still calm sea.
(after all……)
--Ding.
The strange feeling, as if something was calling her, appeared again, and this time Zera was sure that it was not something strange on the sea.
Because that feeling comes from the mountains.
(Could it be that there...!)
The expression on her face became ugly. She remembered that there was only one thing in that direction.
It is also the "treasure" possessed by this island.
——"Sirius Jade".
It's just that everyone regards the sacred stone as a treasure to protect, but Zella knows that it is not a good thing.
That was something that was sealed on this island in ancient times because it absorbed too much evil energy and made it impossible for people to clean it up.
If someone touches it and the evil force takes over, the island will really be doomed.
(...At least take a look to confirm! If you still have time to stop it...!)
Gritting his teeth, he gave up the idea of returning to the guild for the time being. Thinking that someone was approaching the "Sirian Wolf Jade", Zera quickly hurried towards the mountain.
And just as she turned around and disappeared into the forest, a mysterious ship had quietly approached the island.
On the flag on the ship's hull, the coat of arms belonging to a certain guild was constantly swaying.
