Chapter 94:
What makes you always so excited?
Kalia, chuckling at the cute mole, pet her head.
Then her eyes naturally landed on the sparkling bracelet on her wrist.
Come to think of it, grandpa Its been more than 10 days since we last met.
She hadnt seen Gaia in a long time either.
She gradually began to worry.
Kalexia was all right, but still she hadnt seen him for a long time.
Ganini, Furiosa and Hoa havent been heard for a long time either.
Kalia was deep in thought, subconsciously playing with her bracelet with her fingers.
At that moment, a faint light appeared from the bracelet, but Kalia, who was looking somewhere else, didnt notice it.
What is this?
Kalia looked at the small creature flying across the blue plain.
Although Kalias eyesight was much better than average, what was flying was small and cute enough for her to squint.
Tierra, who was playing at Kalias feet, climbed onto her shoulder.
-Kuyy?-
Tierra, tilting her head, looked at the small and cute creature nearby. It was a translucent spirit with six wings. Its shimmering figure looked like a snowflake on a branch.
As if the spirit was playing, it flew over Tierras head and then whispered into Kalias ear.
-Shes coming.-
And at that moment the light came on and the gate opened.

[Angelo, Phillia, Curacias, and Seium expressed their intention to refuse trade in turns.
All of them closed the economy and refused to establish diplomatic relations.
They entered a closed policy, leaving only exchanges with the Akan Kingdom.
P.S. According to investigators, they have one thing in common: the main royal family returned after a short disappearance.]
Simon remembered the second note from the crown prince he had received this morning.
Angelo, Phillia, Curacias and Seium were border countries of Akan and Rojas.
All countries were similar in size, and in terms of economic power, there was no one that was behind or superior to any other country.
However, there were some features common to all four countries.
They were exporting countries trading in wheat and grain, which are the main products Rojas needed.
In particular, the people of Rojas liked the corn from the barns of Angelo and Phillia.
Because the eggs were large and sweet, both commoners and nobles liked them.
Second, the four countries were weak in religion.
Of course, there was no state religion, and those few remaining temples were also outdated, so there were few priests. Not to mention divine power, the nobles there didnt even respect the Creator God.
Thinking, Simon slowly lifted his head, staring into the deep, unmoving darkness.
The ceiling of the temple, where the radiant protection was always supposed to penetrate, was dark as a black night, and not a sound could be heard. The temples mind-purifying air was swallowed up by the cloudy demonic air, which was suspicious.
A temple where Gods protection cannot reach.
A temple that has lost its power in the face of darkness.
This is how the temple of Leila, the goddess of the sun, became.
It seemed that a long time had passed since the god left the temple of the sun goddess, which was only 150 km away from the border of Rojas in Akan.
The four great gods who maintain the world.
Complete darkness descended on Leilas temple, which was said to have the most destructive power among them.
Did you completely get rid of the divine power? How thick the hell is this invading demonic energy?
From the beginning, the power of the temple was weak in Akan.
This is because the first king who escaped from Rojas and founded Akan hated God.
If God existed, he would have made me a knowledgeable successor!
The first ruler, who ridiculed the gods, neglected divine power and worshiped magical and military powers. This attitude was passed down from generation to generation, so there were only three temples in Akan in the whole country. Compared to more than a hundred temples, Rojas alone had significantly fewer of them.
I have to take part in this meeting in Akan.
Akan has rarely appeared at national events so far.
The king politely announced that he wouldnt interfere anywhere, saying that he was striving for the neutrality of the countrys position, but in fact he went only where he wanted, and didnt interfere in politics.
However, the Akan country was so small and insignificant that not a single neighboring country paid attention to whether they visited something or not.
The same was true for Rojas.
But only until now.
Obviously the red-haired man in the video was Prince of Akan.
Prince of Akan who roams the fairy forests of other countries.
What kind of suspicious things are you doing without everyone knowing?
Tak, tak.
Simon entered the empty temple.
Click.
A bright light spread around him with a snap of his fingers.
When the darkness cleared, he saw the dust filling the temple.
Looks like its been empty for a long time
No matter how small the Akan Temple was, there were still exchanges between the temples
It was strange that until now he hadnt known that this temple was so imbued with magic.
At that moment, Simon stopped.
A black-gloved hand reached up and rubbed the tip of her smooth chin.
Right. There were also rats in the temple of Rojas.
The corners of his lips turned up.
On the way here, he broke 7 barriers.
It would be excessive to say that this was a barrier for a small temple that could only accommodate about 40 people.
Slightly closing his eyes, Simon cast protective magic.
[Suho.]
A soft light emanated from Simons entire body.
It was different from divine power, but it was a power that could be used against the power of darkness.
-Shha! Shhh!-
-Chirp!-
Fuego and Elemento appeared on his shoulders and head.
Iru stood at his feet and looked around.
I think Fuego would be more useful in a place like this If youre coming with us, why dont you try to get bigger, Fuego?
At his command, the fiery snake Fuego swelled up.
The snake, which was small enough to wrap around his wrist, grew larger and longer, eventually reaching over 2 meters in length. Blue flames rose from the body of the bright red snake. Thanks to this, the surroundings became a little brighter.
Very good.
He reached out and stroked the snakes head as if in praise.
-Shha! Shhh!-
The snake shook his head, making a menacing sound, different from when he was a small snake. His long tail swung and hit the ground like a puppys. He seemed to have learned to wag his tail from Iru and Tierra.
Simon smiled and walked slowly deeper into the temple.
He descended a long dark staircase. It was too deep for a small temple.
After some time, he finally reached the end. A place where magic was exceptionally dense.
-Arf!-
The air around him cleared as the little puppy Iru ran around. Simon felt his discomfort dissipate, reach the darkest place and release the light. Then the light flashed like a scattering, revealing what was buried in the darkness of the deep dungeon.
Taking a step forward, he looked at what had once been ivory. It was a very beautiful coffin.
The coffin under the temple
Furrowing his brows, Simon slowly reached out and pushed open the lid of the coffin.
Creak.
With his slight movement, the coffin, which had been closed without an inch of slit, opened.
And what was hidden in him was also revealed.
Simon frowned at the coffin.
Skeleton?
In the coffin lay the skeleton of a woman in a crown and black dress.
* * *
Shaaaaa!
A gust of wind swept past with a flash of light.
It was such a cold wind that it didnt even match the cool weather.
Hey, where does this sudden impulse come from?
Its coming from there!
Hemmie jumped up and widened her eyes, pointing to the door, from which a cold wind was blowing.
The simple tea table moved with a clatter. Shards of cups and teapots fell on the floor.
Feeling a chill instantly creep through her, Kalia checked Sasha in the baby carriage first.
Even with such a strong wind, the baby carriage didnt shake like the whole rock.
Oh, baby!
Sasha is fine. Everyone stay there. Dont move.
As Kalia said, the baby didnt wake up from a sound sleep and lay with a calm face, as if he didnt feel anything.
When a sharp wind blew, a magic circle of protection was activated above the baby carriage. The magical power that Simon left, radiating a characteristic magical color, enveloped the baby carriage in which the baby lay.
At the same time, the magic of the baby carriage itself was activated. A thin film of pale blue light illuminated the baby carriage, blocking the path of the wind.
It seemed to be Ganinis power.
Bam!
The surrounding grass clung to the ground because of the huge pressure of the wind.
The leaves swayed like crazy, and Kalias clothes fluttered wildly in the wind.
Pieces of ice, like hail, flew up sharply.
It was a strong wind, like a blizzard.
And then someone stepped out of the light.
A woman with short white hair, a huge body, and an overwhelming sense of terror walked out with dozens of spirits behind her. She fixed her gaze on Kalia and slowly walked towards her.
Are you that child?
The woman in front of her looked at Kalia with a menacing look.
The cold expression and colder look in her eyes tried to put pressure on Kalia.
Who are you? Kalia answered with decisive words and tensed her shoulders.
There was no fear in the eyes that looked straight ahead.
The white-haired fairy tilted her head and met Kalias gaze.
Her dark green eyes reminded her of someone.
Im Nua, she said, looking at Kalia.
The cold wind blew again.
Lord of the Fifth Forest and fourth daughter of Kalexia, the Fairy King.
A white mist-like vapor rose from the white-haired fairys body, as if her entire body was made of ice.
And Im your aunt.
In an instant, an ice sword materialized in her hands as she smiled.
She immediately attacked Kalia.
