(A minute after the end of the fight.)
- I report the sabotage group failed. All were destroyed.
"Damn, you can't be relied upon. You only had one goal. Destroy the carriage, after which the long-distance tracking formation would be disabled. Do you even know what I'm risking, the cry of a guy in the darkness to a girl with cat ears broke.
- You yourself wanted to become a traitor to your village, and you yourself came to us. So please, shut your mouth and keep quiet, there is no turning back now. So do your part and don't get in the way of the plan. So far everything is within the expected limits. The task is going on. And don't you lose for people with bodies unable to draw manna, their insensitivity to manna is very rare, and they are worth a fortune in the slave market. After all, no matter how you look for them with the help of manno, you will do everything for nothing.
"Hmph, like I don't know that." But don't forget the deal, if you don't keep it you're in for a fate no better. As I recall, you signed a soul contract with me, and you know what awaits those who failed the terms of the deal.
– Of course, of course, this is not the first time for us. So I ask you to step aside and not get in the way under your feet.
(Let's return to the foot group of the Melody detachment)
Night turned to dawn. And the day came faster than everyone had time to finally wake up after the last battle. The campaign continued, and the group approached the final entrance to the mountainous part of the valley. There were many mountains and peaks that surrounded the paved road to Jafit.
On the next night, when everyone began to prepare for the night, an explosion was heard, it was a hundred meters away, but its strength was felt by everyone. At that moment, someone screamed.
- Rockfall.
Boouuum
Many stones fell on the tent city, in places limbs could be seen sticking out from under the stones without a single movement. Most were able to survive because they were able to get to the carriage.

She was able to protect everyone by taking the damage herself. And for this reason, now she looked like a broken egg.
The children who had gathered around the carriage were now trembling like an aspen leaf.
- What do we do now. The card has been destroyed.
"This can't go on like this, this is the end. Someone who had gone mad with fear of what had happened yelled.
"Anxiety is attacking us again. All to arms, there was a fading cry of a fur wolf that issued the last cry with an arrow in its chest.
The same attackers appeared from both sides of the passage. They also wore black reflective cloaks, and held dark blades with a green sheen around the edges. Without any words after the fight began. This time there were fewer opponents, but their skills allowed them to pick up three beastmen for one stranger.
Slowly, the fight began to stop when only one leader remained. He was surprisingly not bad. When he was cornered, he skillfully climbed the wall, jumped to the side, getting out of the pincers.
Mark was no longer able to watch what was happening as this enemy continued to shred the people of Melody. After waiting for the moment when the enemy once again jumped from the wall to an unprepared opponent, Mark threw a short sword at that place, creating a pair of blades from the blood that flowed down the rocky road.
klang
The enemy, as if having eyes on the back of his head, beat off the blade, turned his face, which was finally revealed to everyone. It was a girl with cat ears, and her eyes shone with gold. According to this, Mark immediately realized that he was faced with the awakened direction of the light. On their own, they are not strong enough to break through their limits. But what is alarming about them is the strengthening of their body by the sun. They can become faster, stronger, or more durable depending on their intent and experience.
There was an awkward silence between them for a brief moment. That was cut by a blade that darted into Mark's face, with mind-numbing speed.
The fight ensued as soon as they were both in their strike zone. Mark was the first to parry a saber, as he used short swords made of blood. Although the saber had a small impact force, it was no less than that of a heavy two-handed sword. From each attempt to parry the sword, Mark gritted his teeth so as not to let out a cry of pain from which every time passed through his back due to the many hidden spinal injuries in the past world.
When the stranger delivered an unexpected roundhouse kick on Mark's diaphragm, the one who flew off finally got the distance he needed.
"Well, you asked for it yourself," he said, cutting his hand. From which Thagiya began to emerge. Earlier, he realized that by receiving this sword, he became a part of it. And he was hiding in it, the only way to get him ended up using his blood as a summoning gate.
"I won't let you," came the cry of a stranger. Mark was a little surprised that there were notes of fear and anxiety in him. After all, he doubted that she knew what kind of sword it was.
