Chapter 111

"What on earth is it? Could it be the Sablum people?"

Alan, holding me even more tightly from behind, asked. It didn't seem like he was asking to hear an answer.

"It's below!"

Andrea shouted, pulling Billy's reins forcefully. As soon as Billy struck the ground with his front hooves, something gigantic emerged from the ground. It was none other than a giant yellow centipede. Although it was a creature I had never seen before, I could naturally understand without anyone telling me. That was a monster.

The unbelievably large centipede soared into the sky like a dragon. The sky was instantly covered. Every scale on the centipede's body was clearly visible, and the sound of the wind cutting through as its dozens of legs contracted and unfolded could be heard.

Who could oppose such a monster? I felt the majesty of nature in front of that living being. Even if that centipede were to kill me right now, I could accept it willingly. The centipede seemed unbelievably powerful.

However, as I stood there with my mouth agape, lost in thought, urgent voices from both sides rushed at me as if lashing a whip.

"Priest! Take Del and run away from here! Just run!"

"Narcissus! Hold on tight!"

Without giving me a chance to react, Alan quickly changed direction, urging Millie. Millie, terrified, began to run at a lighting speed. Soon, Andrea and Billy fell far behind.

"Andrea, Andrea!"

I belatedly turned around and shouted, but Andrea was not visible, covered by Alan's body.

"We need to run first! If we're here, we'll just be a burden!"

Alan shouted while mounting Millie.

It was true. Neither I nor Alan had combat abilities. So, when the Sablum people chased us before, we escaped together. But this time? Could Andrea's combat power be useful against that giant monster?

The answer came quickly. Unlikely.

"We have to go back! No matter how strong Andrea is, he can't defeat that monster!"

Andrea was just a human. If the centipede swung one leg, Andrea would be thrown far away.

Whenever I faced danger and urgency, I didn't want to leave everything to Andrea and run away. I didn't want to leave Andrea alone and escape.

"I may not have a plan, but let's run away together! This, this is not right!"

I wrapped my hands around Alan's holding the reins. I could feel Alan's body hesitating.

"Alan, please!"

"Oh Eura, our god..."

From behind, I heard Alan calling out to the god Eura as if in agony. Then, he turned the monster's head once again. Millie, driven by the instinct of survival, tried to run forward, but unable to overcome the strength of the reins, he turned his head. Now, we were running back towards Andrea.

"Whatever Narcissus says, I will prioritize Narcissus's safety. You can call me cowardly, it doesn't matter. I will protect Narcissus, who has received the miracle of the god Eura, first and foremost," Alan forcefully pulled the reins.

"But if there is a path where we can all survive, we should definitely go there. So, oh god, please show us the way!" Alan's final prayer was almost like a command. His voice, which had always been gentle and affectionate, resounded powerfully. Andrea, who had been looking up at the monster with a drawn-out sword, turned his head towards us. A sense of defeat appeared on his face.

"Damn it, why are you back again!"

"Brother!"

We approached Andrea, stopping Millie in his tracks. When our eyes met Andrea's, his pupils transformed into heart shapes once again. However, even in that state, he spoke sternly.

"Go back, Master."

"Andrea, brother!"

From behind, Alan shouted as if frustrated, "Brother, you can't defeat that monster! We have to run away together!"

"Someone needs to divert the monster's attention here. So, go, quickly!" Andrea remained resolute, turning away from us as if determined not to listen to Alan any further.

From the sky, the monster lowered its head and stared at us. Millie and Billy trembled as if feeling the piercing gaze of the strong predator.

"I'll jump up here and stab the monster's belly with a knife. If I stab deeply and lift my weight, it should...," Andrea said, looking up at the giant centipede-like monster.

"Meanwhile, you can take Del and run away," he added, looking directly at Alan. He seemed to be avoiding looking at me, and as evidence, his pupils returned to normal.

"That's our plan. Priest, at least you can save Del, now do as I say."

In other words, he was saying that he might die here. Alan bit his lips. Meanwhile, the long body of the centipede started to move sluggishly, as if ready to attack us at any moment.

"Go!"

Andrea removed his foot from the saddle, preparing to leap from Billy. He changed the grip on the knife in his hand. Within seconds, he would jump onto the centipede's belly, stab it deeply, and distract its attention. In the moment of serious danger.

"Andrea!"

I shouted Andrea's name with strength.

"It's an order! Run away with me!"

The 'love slave' event still had about four hours left. If there was something you desired, God said I can command it.

"What I want right now is for Andrea to survive!"
