…?”

Having heard the voice co with Riley, she also discovered that the priest, Asteel, was unconscious and leaning against a wall Looking confused, Nainiae asked Riley,

“Why are you here?”

Through the power of her eye, she was roughly aware that Riley had co to step in the situation

“I clearly re me that you will not step forward…”

When Nainiae ith Riley during the early , Riley had said so, and that instead he would just watch Because Nainiae remembered his words, she stared at Riley with a questionon her face

“I know I did say that”

The look on Riley’s face said all this was such a bother to him He scratched the back of his head and continued

“I was not planning on stepping forward It is as I said before, but…”

Riley furrowed the spot between his eyebrows and looked at Astroa floating in the air

Astroa did have an arrow stuck in his thigh, but it appeared that the injury was not hindering hiic attacks that he was pouring out was not showing any signs of winding down

Riley could see why Astroa was called the grand ic Tower He deserved the title

“…this is taking too long”

Riley corand e like Astroa Nainiae could see in Riley’s face that he was not joking Nainiae asked,

“Too…long?”

The opponent that they were fighting against was the top dog of Solia’s Magic Tower, a grand ht of Seven Circles He was a ic every fivehim down quickly like a sewer rat was practically i”

Despite all that, Riley was saying that the battle was being sustained for too long

“This is being dragged on for too long, and because of that, ic attacks are about to reach all the way to where , now there was a possibility of endangering his mother This was the reason why Riley caht, the situation should have concluded before an incident where Astroa’s indiscri towards where Riley was

“I don’t know about their circuain, the look on Riley’s face expressed that all this was such a bother to hiaged in a head-on battle against Astroa

“…A the people from Solia Castle, there isn’t any skilled archer This is the proble Fly ic

For Solia Castle’s swords him doas certainly a very difficult task

There were archers auards, but, because they didn’t kno to load the arroithexpectations of

“How could these so called knights not even know the concept of blade throw technique”

Tsk

Riley ue as he closed and opened his hand several tie Looking at the situation, there isn’t any a the priests fro it either”

“In that case, we should ask the Magic Tower…”

“No”

As Nainiae said, in that case, the only way left washih they had Nainiae here, because theAstroa when he occasionally attempted to cast Teleport, therefore she could not be counted on for such a task

They needed another e

However, to point out a probleic Toould willingly cooperate if they asked the Magic Tower’squestion: ‘would you please lend your strengths and help us hunt down Astroa, your leader?’

“Notifying the Magic Tower about this should be done after giving a serious thought first If we just tell theer You never know In the worst case scenario, it es had that ht that, instead, finishing the deed while Astroa was alone and far away froht be easier

“…God damn it Mithril net! Is there a Mithril net?!”

As a powerful voice like the sound of thunder could be heard, Nainiae’s gaze in

It was from Ian, the one that ihts and archers along with the royal guard’s captain when Riley gave Ian the permission to act

“It… It’s at the castle!”

“What? God daet it!”

“But, it will at least take 30 et it for now!”

It appeared Ian was titled as the hero ood reason Ian had succeeded in burying an arrow in Astroa’s thigh However, since then, he had not ed to successfully deal another hit, which was a proble for a net, Riley whistled However, when Riley then heard it will take 30 oing to be just about whether Ian would get hurt or not”

Currently, the battle to defeat Astroa was in full swing

Noticing the people’s gazes tohere Nainiae was standing, Riley slowly moved back and stepped on Nainiae’s shadow

He stepped back because he had already told Nainiae that he was intending to do so and show her how

If possible, Riley wanted to avoid having the situation head in a direction where he was getting the attention

“Big Sis Who is this Big Bro?”

Riley, who stepped back to hide hi child who he had his eyes met with earlier for a brief ether froic Tower’s basement laboratory Now, because of the medical treatment from the Holy Temple, the child was able to speak a little

“That is…”

Nainiae blurred the end of her sentence and looked around It was because she couldn’t decide what to say, and she was also worried about the priest as sticking by her until a o, as now unconscious before anyone, even rats or birds, noticed

“Big Sis, by chance, did you see? A h Nainiae didn’t see it herself, it appeared that the child saw up to thelady”

“…?”

Riley called the child and bent his upper body slightly to level his eyes with her

Riley had a leisurely tone of voice, and there was no animosity in it

However, Nainiae was still worried All she did was staring vacantly to her front with herher eyes

‘Will it be…okay?’

She was not able to turn around and see as happening behind her, between Riley and the child It was because she was currently being the wall that hid Riley froazes of others

“I’m sorry, but, about what just happened, and the fact that you saw me here today…can you please keep it a secret?”
