90 – Bishop

Rail turned his head away without even looking at the drooping warlock’s corpse.

I looked at the corpses of elves piled up for a while.

And after a moment, he turned his gaze back to Claire.

Flinch. Claire involuntarily took a step back.

However, he soon realizes that Rail is on the same side as him and opens his mouth.

“They don’t want it to stay like this, so you’d better burn it with fire.”

A hot flame rose above her hand as she raised her mana.

And the moment she reached out to burn the bodies of the elves, the rails blocked her hand.

“…… What’s the matter?”

“Even dead elves would prefer to be buried in their hometown rather than here. When everything is done, we will send the corpses to the elves’ forest.”

“Okay.”

Claire nodded her head and immediately extinguished her spell.

“So what are you going to do now? The elf seems to have died a little while ago, so are you trying to escape from this place?”

“No. Pilar is not dead yet.”

Rail looked at the corpses of the elves once again and continued her words.

“There is an elf who looks like Fila among them, but I don’t think Fila is among them.”

“Can you tell the faces of the elves?”

“Yes. I can tell them apart to some extent.”

Claire also turned her head to check the faces of the elves.

However, it was difficult to distinguish their faces no matter how much I looked at them.

The only thing that can tell them apart is their height.

However, Rail was able to accurately identify the elves.

“Then, you are going to go rescue that elf again.”

“Yes. It could be dangerous, so I think it’s okay for the princess to escape now. Because if I hold on alone, support will come before it is too late.”

More time has passed than I thought.

I don’t know if it’s the imperial guard, but Fenia and Allin might have already arrived in the North.

Then, if I hold on while using my magic to prevent them from breaking the seal, support will come in time.

Besides, Claire, who has a talent for magic, will be able to escape the hideout without any damage.

Rail turned his head away from Claire and moved his feet deeper into the hideout without hesitation.

It was because I felt quite a lot of mana in that depth.

‘I have to go get it quickly.’

In the original work, I didn’t see that the warlocks kidnapped so many elves in the current situation.

I don’t know the exact reason, but the future has changed and warlocks are trying to resurrect the ancient one more quickly.

I made my body as light as possible with lightweight magic.

On the contrary, the weight was increased on the legs and feet so that they could gain momentum without collapsing their posture.

Perhaps it was because he ate the sap of the World Tree, his body, which he thought could not be lighter, became lighter.

The feet are heavy, as if wearing thick iron shoes.

I think I can block even the attack of the warlock who shared the battle with Allin.

Rail, having finished his thoughts, gave strength to his toes. And that was the moment when I was about to move my feet to the place where I could feel the magical energy.

“I will go with you.”

Claire, who began to warm up lightly, followed the rail.

“It would be easier to rescue two people than alone.”

“…… Thank you Mrs. Claire.”

“Nothing.”

“Don’t fall behind as we intend to move faster than before.”

“You’re cocky.”

Claire raised the corner of her mouth slightly.

Unlike Helena and Sophia, she was gifted physically as well as magically.

Clair, who is gifted with both swords and magic, could have become a magician who uses swords and magic if she wanted to.

She turned to magic because it was annoying to move her body, but her body was superior to that of most knights.

Of course, the speed of the rail was also better than the others, but it seemed that it was still difficult to catch up with him in speed.

“Okay, let’s go.”

“Yes.”

At Rail’s words, Claire slowly let mana flow through his toes.

Then her mana-bearing feet began to gain strength, and the soles of her slightly swollen feet slid down on the floor.

When Claire finished her preparations and lifted her head, Rail immediately stepped forward as if she had finished her preparations.

Damn it!!

Then the floor the rail was stepping on broke like a spider’s web. Then, Rail’s body galloped deeper into the depths with terrifying speed.

“…… !”

Claire’s eyes widened as she watched them.

I only blinked once, but before I knew it, the rails were wide open.

I felt like I would miss the rail if I stayed in my seat for a while.

Quickly kicking his feet, Claire immediately moved his feet toward the rails.

Taang-!

With the sound of air bursting, Claire’s body moved at high speed like an arrow flying from a string.

However, for some reason, the distance from the rail did not narrow at all.

No, to be precise, the distance continued to widen even now.

‘How can a wizard be so fast?’

Claire looked behind the rails in disbelief.

Obviously his body didn’t seem to have been enhanced with mana.

However, what kind of magic did he use? Her speed was overwhelming compared to her who strengthened her body with mana.

In the end, thinking that she would never be able to catch up with him at the current speed, Claire poured more mana into her body.

Her legs began to swell more and more.

And her body rushes at a faster rate than before.

As I started running at the fastest possible speed, the distance from the open rail gradually decreased.

And when Rail’s face began to be visible to the naked eye, Claire saw.

Unlike himself, who is running to the limit with his face distorted, Rail is running leisurely without breaking a drop of sweat.

“Haa… …. Ha….”

I’m starting to get a little out of breath.

I want to stop the speed right now and sit down on the floor and take a break.

But stopping him now seemed like a big disappointment to Rail.

Claire, who had been running at the maximum speed, felt a considerable amount of magical energy flowing nearby.

She kept her mouth shut as she was chasing after Rail, but she said to Rail.

“Rails.”

“Yes. It looks like there are guys right in front of you.”

And Rail said, nodding her head as if she knew what she meant.

“Then I’ll go straight to my room!”

“Okay!”

Arriving in a dark and humid room where you can feel various magic powers, Rail doesn’t hesitate to send his magic power towards the pendant.

-!!

Then, a huge whirlpool of flame rose above Rail’s hand, and flame magic whirled towards the black door blocking her entrance.

Qua gua gua and guac!

With a loud explosion, the door shattered and spread in all directions.

Rail and Claire moved their feet straight toward the open door.

And the warlocks, who were offering their wealth to awaken the ancient beings, stopped what they were doing and turned their heads toward the two intruders.

As everyone was staring with their mouths closed in bewilderment, the man broke the silence and opened his mouth.

“You managed to escape from that prison. But I guess I misunderstood the direction, so I came to this place instead of the exit.”

“… ….”

But Rail didn’t answer the man’s words.

Rail’s gaze passed the man’s face and moved to his hand. And there, Fila, who had just handed over the sap of the World Tree to Rail, was held in his hand as a cold corpse.

“If I had been imprisoned as it was, I would have been able to return home, but now that I have seen this, I cannot let you live…” ….”

“Claire.”

The man stopped talking, and Rail’s cold voice fell.

It was rude to call the princess by her first name, but Claire couldn’t point out the rail at all.

Rail opened her mouth without looking away from the man.

“Ask for assistance.”

“…… Okay.”

And at the same time as Claire finished speaking, Rail took out a short dagger from his chest and jumped at the man.

Hui-Iik-!

The man’s eyes widened as Rail, who he clearly thought was a wizard, ran at the same speed as the swordsman.

“What are you doing! Deal with them right now!”

“Chung! Protect the bishop and kill the intruders!”

“Yes!”

The warlocks responded loudly to the bishop’s voice.

And jumped towards the rails that were speeding towards the bishop.

“Where!”

But there was no way Claire would quietly watch the warlocks rushing towards the rails.

Claire, who quickly cast a spell, used it immediately.

Fire-!

Then, a huge whirlwind of flames erupted around her and attacked the warlocks.

“aaa!!”

“Use defense magic!”

The person affected by Claire’s magic screams.

Rail broke through Claire’s attack and didn’t pay any attention to the warlocks who rushed towards him.

Believing only that Claire would block all attacks, he jumped towards the bishop, who was judged to be the most dangerous here.
