Volume Two, Chapter 25

Turning his gaze to the elf guard in front of him, the corners of "Alicia"'s mouth rose slightly at an imperceptible angle.

Although the elf guard in front of him was ordinary in appearance, he was just an ordinary guard in every respect, but Kazakus, who had Alicia's memory, knew that the guard in front of him was definitely not an ordinary guard. Because, the queen mother in memory would never let ordinary guards guard the entrance at the root of the World Tree.

'So, just take advantage of it? '

"But, Alicia really has something very important to tell the queen." Thinking of this, Alicia put away the expression on her face, put her right hand on her chest, and prayed to the guard again, "If this If you don’t know about the event immediately afterward, the next thing may be unpredictable.”

"This... Lady Alicia..."

Faced with Alicia's prayer, the elf guard was a little shaken.

Although the Elven Queen has given orders to prohibit anyone from passing through here, if it is Alicia, if it is the pure and kind Lady Alicia, it should not have any effect on Her Lady Queen's actions. affect it?

"Huh~ well, I really can't do anything about you." The guard sighed.

"The guard means that Alicia can pass?"

"Please don't call me an adult, Lord Alicia. After all, you are a noble elf princess, and I am just a small guard." The elf guard said helplessly, while turning around, "Come on, Lord Alicia , please go this way."

And just as the guard was walking towards the barrier, an accident happened.

The powerful dark magic power emanated from behind. Just as the elf guard realized all this and turned around, the person behind him showed a successful expression of his plan.

"Success~"

"you……?"

Seeing the bone spur exuding a dark aura in Alicia's hand, the elf guard's expression changed.

At that moment, the elf guard understood everything.

"You are not Lord Alicia." The elf guard said with a sullen face.

"It's too late, Lord Guard~"

Alicia bent down, observed the body of the elf guard quietly, and said with a smile, "I think, before you think about how to convey the news that Alicia was replaced by a villain to the queen mother, you'd better observe it first." Own body."

"This……?"

A strange feeling came from the lower body.

Looking down, at some point, my body seemed to be softened, and the flesh and bones inside seemed to disappear out of thin air.

The body that lost its support just collapsed on the ground, unable to move at all.

The elf guard wanted to say something, but he couldn't do it.

Picking up the human skin on the ground and stroking the flat skin, a strange smile appeared on Alicia's gentle face.

"Okay, now you can come out." Alicia squinted slightly, looking towards a shadowy corner of the wall, urging.

“……”

"Really, how many times do I have to say it? Mr. Orc? You don't know me after I put on Alicia's skin, do you?"

As far as Alicia could see, a man in black stepped out of the shadows. The man in black took off his jumpsuit and hood. It was the orc that Vivienne had met before!

"Here, Mr. Orc, take it~" Throwing the human skin in her hand to the orc, Alicia squinted her eyes and urged, "This is what I promised you. Now, you are no longer an orc and a human." You are no longer an inferior half-orc, you are a noble and beautiful higher race—the elf."

……

Open the old stone door, and the narrow corridor becomes wide open in an instant.

This is the secret basement of the imperial capital.

No, using [Basement], it is impossible to accurately describe the terrain here. Sakuya felt that it would be more accurate to call this area a huge [underground space].

Walking slowly to the edge of the platform, Sakuya looked down, but her beautiful face showed a surprised expression because of the spectacular scene in front of her.

Below the platform is a flat land. The huge magic seal pattern covered the entire flat ground, and in the very center of the flat ground, there was a transparent crystal emitting a dim blue light.

The transparent crystal is blocked by layers of wonderful metal chains, but these chains are connected to the stone pillars on the edge of the magic circle, and absorb the power of the magic circle through the stone pillars.

There is no doubt that it is the sealing formation of the Gluttonous Demon God.

Thinking of this, Sakuya silently chanted magic in her heart, then took Gloria's hand who hadn't reacted yet, and jumped down together.

The platform was about tens of meters away from the flat ground. During the fall, the air whizzed past, bringing up Sakuya's silver-blue hair. Gloria was even more at a loss because of this sudden accident.

However, what was imagined did not happen. Sakuya used water magic to create a buffering water wall on the flat ground. Eventually, the two reached level ground unscathed.

"Ah...ha, ha, ha..." Gloria seemed to be still immersed in the feeling of falling from the sky just now, her breathing was rapid, and her chest kept rising and falling.

"Please don't worry, miss." Noticing Gloria's reaction, Sakuya smiled slightly and comforted, "With me here, there will be no accidents."

"Hoo~ Sister Sakuya, it was really scary just now." Gloria took a deep breath, calmed down, and asked, "Okay, shall we liberate Lord Gluttony Demon God next?"

"Yes." Sakuya nodded, holding the small blood collection bottle in her hand even tighter.

This is an item delivered to Sakuya by Lord Iris, the Demon God of Envy. The blood in the bottle is Alice's blood. According to Alice, this will be the key to unlocking the seal of the Gluttonous Demon God's Seal Formation.

"So, how to unlock the seal?"

Walking slowly to the crystal, Sakuya stared at this beautiful transparent crystal. The crystal is pure and flawless, without a single blemish... No, Sakuya noticed the problem.

In the deepest part of this glowing blue crystal, Sakuya found a small black dot.

The little dot seemed to be still alive, and it kept moving.

"Is this the gluttonous demon god?" Sakuya seemed to have sensed the problem.

Hearing this, Gloria on the side also nodded, "I think so. This should be Lord Gluttony Demon God."

"The Gluttonous Demon God must be released as soon as possible." Speaking of this, Sakuya began to search for suspicious places near the crystal, hoping to find the key to unlocking the seal.

Gloria: "Ah, sister Sakuya, is this the place where the seal is lifted?"

Sakuya: "This is...?"

Looking in the direction Gloria pointed, Sakuya couldn't help but show the original expression.

Right above the crystal, there is a small hole just big enough to fit a gold coin into. Sakuya understood that this small hole was the key to unlocking the sealing formation, she twisted the blood extraction bottle, and carefully poured the blood in the bottle into the small hole.

The blood continued to flow down the small hole, and the transparent crystal emitting blue light also changed accordingly. The original light blue crystal was stained red by Alice's blood at this moment, from clear and transparent to cloudy, exuding a strange color.

The ground under her feet began to vibrate, as if she was afraid of the coming giant, but Sakuya showed no fear on her face, because she knew that she succeeded, and the Gluttonous Demon God was liberated.
