Chapter 53:
Is this also a magic stone?
Even if it was just a stone, it was unusually beautiful, and Juliet liked its shape.
She poured out all the magic stones she had in her pocket, leaving only that black stone carefully placed in.
By the way, there was such a story. When a dragon, the king of monsters, settles, a habitat for lower-level monsters naturally forms around it.
It was a hypothesis she heard for the first time.
Therefore, now that dragons are extinct, it is said that no new habitats are created.
That makes sense.
Right? Then it also explains why such habitats are concentrated in the eastern part of the continent compared to other regions.
Juliet and Eshel were sitting side by side on the ground, exchanging such talks.
Unable to move due to hunger, they had nothing else to do. If they wouldnt have to be in this position
Im going to kill Teo Lebatan
Eshel burst into laughter in disbelief.
Dont laugh.
Juliet grumbled.
From the start, if Teo didnt mess with the tracker, we wouldve left here a long time ago.
The smile disappeared from Eshels face. Thinking about it, that was indeed the case.
Im right.
Juliet.
Yes, why?
People call this point right below the sternum as the solar plexus.
And?
Without realizing it, Juliet followed Eshel and pointed to her own solar plexus.
Eshel spoke with a resolute face.
Target the solar plexus.

But this would be hard to break, huh.
After examining the cliff carefully, they concluded that it would be difficult to escape from this place by themselves.
Juliet muttered quietly.
Then, are we going to die here?
Eshel had a very intrigued expression on his face.
Juliet was silently ruminating with her chin propped up.
As expected.
She couldnt change her fate. In her past life, Juliet died at the age of twenty-five. Would she die this way in this life as well?
But Dahlia hasnt shown up yet, and I havent seen Carlyle again, its unfair.
If I knew this would happen, I shouldve just
Juliet was biting her lip slightly while thinking, and she was surprised at her own thoughts.
But the thought of dying was inevitably bitter. Could that man know if she died here? Or, would he be sad to know?
After all, it wouldve been balanced if Teo was here.
While examining the wall, Eshel muttered something incomprehensible.
Swordsman, magician, and
Eshel looked at Juliet straight as he trailed off.
Summoner.
Right?
Juliet blinked her eyes.
She didnt ask the cliched question of how he knew.
Heooeohh
Then, a child who had been sobbing started crying.
As it became the third night since they fell, the little kids began to cry.
A glint passed through Eshels eyes.
An oath of Icarus? Where did you hear about that?
Its a promise, isnt it?
Okay. I swear.
Eshel nodded seriously.
Hmm.
The Black Mane Guild members were standing around with very awkward expressions.
Wed like to talk.
Juliet was sleepy, hungry, and powerless, so she just sat down there.
Im the guild master of the Black Mane Guild, Epsilon.
Im Eshel. Im a magician from the Marigold Guild.
Eshel spoke on behalf of Juliet. The other guild members behind Epsilon eyed Eshel warily.
Ah, I see.
Epsilon glanced at Juliet over Eshels shoulder.
Welleven though we didnt meet beautifully, we need to know each others abilities now that things have come to this. What was it-
Wont it help to escape?
Another guild member chimed in.
Eshel had an astonished look on his face but shrugged.
Fine.
Then the guild members introduced themselves one by one.
Magda and the children, who had returned to their seats, also told their names. After going around, all that was left was Juliet, sitting on one side with sleepy eyes.
Hmm!
Epsilon cleared his throat and asked.
What kind of skills does that young lady have?
Juliet, who had been watching with her arms crossed, felt all eyes on her.
Only then did she realize it. They had started the conversation to extract information from Juliet in the first place.
I didnt really want to pull out a butterfly in front of everyone but
She had already exposed the butterfly anyway.
Juliet, leaning back casually, opened her palm. Then, a bluish glow rose from her hand, soon taking a fluffy and clear shape.
The light, fully transformed into a butterfly, fluttered its wings and flew upwards.
Flicker.
It energetically went up, but eventually it was blocked by the silver barrier and couldnt go outside.
Sighs flowed from among the people surrounding her.
Oh
The only one keeping cool was Eshel.
He watched Juliets performance with a slightly dark expression.
Its a spirit I summoned.
Juliet answered without any expression.
Those
Juliet hadnt forgotten Lionels advice.
Theres no need to show everything.
They sparkle.
What?
Is is that the answer?
Yes, its very useful in the dark.
Juliet replied with a bright smile.
Sparkle sparkle!
The butterflies, as if they understood her words, flew around emitting light more actively than before.
