Chapter 248
The land beyond the Demon King’s Realm, the labyrinth city of Labyrinthos. The location of the Saxon Viscount’s residence, and the place where Elena and Riza had taken refuge to escape the Great War.
The very ground trembled violently, and the two Saxon fathers did not hesitate.
The Black Duke stretched out his arm, and the ground beneath them split open. The world tore apart, and from its depths, a dragon formed of bone revealed itself.
“Ride, Dale.”
“Understood.”
Following his father, Dale immediately mounted the dragon’s back. The dragon spread its skeletal wings and began to soar.
The dragon soared through the pale, dark night sky, revealing the mountain ranges and the landscape of the Demon King’s Realm spread out below.
“Could it be the Demon King’s Realm’s Great Labyrinth…!”
“Don’t be unsettled, Dale.”
Nevertheless, his father’s voice remained remarkably calm. It was the very composure befitting the name of the Viscount of Saxony.
“Didn’t you bring your mother and sister, Lizzie, to the Saxon Viscount’s residence completely unprotected?”
“…I suppose so.”
That was true. The elf mage Sepia, who was currently protecting the two of them, was no exception.
“The Golden Monarch has fallen, and the war is over.”
Dale spoke flatly.
“But strangely, it doesn’t feel like anything has ended.”
“Do you think the greed and obsession of mortals for gold will vanish just because the Golden Sovereign disappears?”
