The village looks like it has been abandoned for a long time. The village is adorned by collapsed buildings. Ziruko felt a little concerned about the state of this village.
"Mizu, what do you think of this village?"
"If I think so anyway, this village has been abandoned since three days ago."
"Are you sure, Mizu?"
"I believe 100% in my instincts."
"What do you think, Aza???"
"If from the looks of it, this village seems to have been abandoned seven days ago."
"so yeah. There is no point in me comparing your opinions about this village."
"Yes, what you did was in vain."
Suddenly I felt the presence of someone. I feel like someone is watching me.
"Do you feel like someone is following us, Mizu?"
"I wanted to say it from now on."
"We must be careful of ambushes."
I looked around the rubble.
Platkk!!!
Suddenly I heard the sound of falling wood. The three of us approached the voice.
We removed the wood that had fallen and immediately glanced behind the pile of wood.
We saw a woman who had rabbit ears. He has red hair.
I remember Riz saying, Rabby Village is a rabbit-eared human being.
The woman looked terrified, and pointed the sharp wood towards the three of us.
"Would you guys come here?"
"We..."
"A friend or foe?"
"Just calm! we're here to help you."
The woman did not stop directing the sharp wood. He still looks alert. The three of us decided to introduce ourselves.
"Include me Ziruko."
"I'm Mizu."
"My name is Azalea Rossweiss. Then what's your name?"
"Rossweiss yes, you mean the imperial family."
"That's right!"
"But I don't trust you guys."
"Ziruko, what should we do?"
"Hmmm..."
I thought for a moment, and I finally came up with an idea.
"So, did you know about the incident about the ogre attack???"
"Of course, it was our tribe's talk at the time."
"What kind of conversation?"
"Our elders say that if the man who repulsed the ogre army, it will come to save the conflict in our village that has not been resolved for many years."
"So, this village was destroyed long ago?"
"Yes, about two years ago."
"Why not fix it?"
"Every time we repair, this village is destroyed again and again."
"Oh so yeah."
"Then, why are you talking about the ogre attack incident?"
"How about I tell you, I'm the one who repulsed those ogres."
"I won't believe it before I see the evidence."
"Hmmm.it's hard to find proof."
"Then I won't believe."
"To make you believe, what should I do?"
"How about we duel the force."
"Duel powers? what do I do?"
"When you fight, do you agree?"
"Of course not, I can't hit a woman."
"really?"
"Of course it's true."
"Look at this, you just smash the biggest and most powerful stone here. If the stone is broken I'll believe it."
"Shattering stones yeah, seems easy."
"really? you underestimated that stone too much."
"Show me where the stone is!"
"Follow me."
The three of us followed this woman. We entered the forbidden forest.
"Here are the stones. If you can destroy it, I'll believe it."
"It looks like the stone is too big for me to break."
"So you gave up?"
"Of course not. I'll try to destroy it."
I walked to the front of the big rock. I took a breath, and gathered all the energy into my right hand.
Yeah, right. I'm using gaia energy. And it seems like my gaia energy capacity has been growing since the last time I fought Hanzo.
I lifted my hand back, then I smacked it into the stone.
It's unbelievable...
"So, you can't destroy it huh Ziruko."
"There may be a small mistake. If you allow me, can I hit him one more time?"
"You tried a hundred times won't be destroyed either."
"No matter what others say, before I try it I won't be satisfied."
I took another breath, and gathered gaia energy throughout my body.
This time I used a different way than the one before. Hopefully this way will work.
I opened my eyes, and immediately hit the stone.
There was the sound of cracks coming from that huge rock. Then, I looked at the rabbit-eared female. He looks very surprised.
"How is it possible? this is a stone that cannot be destroyed since centuries."
"That means you can trust me?"
"If you're just telling a name, it's okay."
"We started from the beginning. My name is Ziruko RE. Vanargard."
"So you're RE. huh?"
"What's your full name then?"
"My full name is Liliana de Rabby no Luca IX. Just call me Lili"
"You are the descendants of the elders of Rabby Village?"
"Yes that's how."
"But why don't you look like Azalea."
"Don't equate me with her. I'd rather live this way."
"Is there anything I want to ask you?"
"Ask what?"
"Where are the residents of Rabby Village?"
"Then let's go see my grandfather."
"Your grandfather? is your grandfather the elder here?"
"Yes, but you have to be careful with him."
"Why?"
"He doesn't like outsiders."
"That's it."
The three of us followed Lili. We went back to the place where we met Lili earlier.
Continuing after, Lili lifted the already collapsed roof.
I was a little surprised, because even though he looked cute but he had great strength.
It is like a proverb that says we should not judge a book by its cover.
"Hurry you guys in!"
I was a little surprised, because behind this collapsed roof there is a way down.
We're down the stairs. The stairs are decorated by several lanterns hanging beside it.
A few minutes later we reached the bottom of the stairs.
I looked to the right and left. But, I didn't see anything. Then suddenly Lili pulled my hand and directly crashed into the wall.
Surprisingly, I did not feel any pain. And even more strangely, my neighborhood looks like a market. Then all of a sudden everyone who was here knelt down like they were paying their respects.
They said, "Welcome Miss Liliana."
I immediately saw Lili's face, she looked different compared to before. I can conclude that she looks more graceful.
"Ziruko, don't mind them! just keep walking, follow me."
"Of course, you hold my hand."
A while later, we arrived in front of the village elder's house. We both went into a place that looked like a tent.
"I'm back, grandpa."
"So who are you holding his hand to."
"He is Ziruko."
"It wasn't like I told you that no outsider would know about this hideout."
"But grandfather, he was the one who managed to repulse the ogre army."
"I can't just believe it."
"So I made sure of it."
"Stay, outsiders can't get in here."
"Then, how about I say she's the husband-to-be I chose."
