“Sister?”

I called out again, but my sister was still baring her teeth at me like a crazed beast.

Clear hostility and killing intent.

Right now, my sister was protecting them against me.

“……”

Grind.

My teeth gnashed, and excessive force was applied to the sword I was holding, causing the tip of the blade to tremble slightly.

“Calm down.”

Eris placed her hand on my shoulder from the side, not giving me a moment to think coolly. If it weren’t for that, I might have unintentionally lashed out.

“She was a necessary talent to conquer the Demon Realm Forest. We lacked aerial combatants.”

The man who seemed to be the leader, noticing my state, spoke in a panting voice while covering his wound with his hand.

“The other races were just experiments, but she was different. We intended to have her fight on the frontlines as an outstanding force to conquer the Demon Realm Forest.”

In my previous life, no matter how hard I tried to find my sister after entering the forest, I couldn’t find her.

Even if my sister had lost affection for me and stopped looking for me, I thought it was strange that I couldn’t find her either.

‘So this was the outcome.’

I didn’t know exactly what conquering the Demon Realm Forest meant, but the fact that she fought there meant she had already given up on a normal life.

Perhaps.

‘She must have met her end on that land where I lived.’

Imagining my sister being eaten by the beasts living in the Demon Realm Forest, abandoned in loneliness, I felt a burning sensation piercing the back of my head again.

If I had just mustered a bit of courage and gone in.

Or if I had become stronger just a little faster.

Wouldn’t there have been a chance to save my sister?

“But before the conquest, we were able to find the apocalypse. If you also know about the ‘Earliest Apocalypse,’ you shouldn’t leave that black-haired woman alone…”

“Enough.”

The man who seemed to be the leader was trying to persuade me, but I cut off his words concisely.

“I understand your intentions. I even understand that you were trying to protect the world in your own way.”

Perhaps sensing the unusual atmosphere.

Even Eris next to me was startled and took a step back, and due to my sensitively changed senses, I felt my sister getting agitated.

“If we talk to each other, it could flow in a good direction. We could prevent Rin’s rampage.”

“That’s right! I…!”

“However.”

As the other professors whose mana was gradually returning seemed ready to rush in at any moment, I stepped forward first.

“The place where we start our conversation is in prison.”

Only after I put you in a cold prison cell first can our conversation be established.

As I charged forward, naturally, my sister, who was at the very front, rushed towards me. I tried to somehow get past her or knock her unconscious.

But my sister’s body floated up and flew to the side. She seemed to be struggling but showed no signs of pain.

“Leave it to me, Daniel.”

It was Eris’ wind magic that subdued my sister.

“Thank you.”

I thanked her sincerely and immediately charged forward. The woman called Horan hurriedly stepped in front of me and swung her hand.

Crunch.

My sword dug into her swinging palm. Suddenly, remembering that this sword was also a gift from my sister when I came to the academy, I put more strength into my hand.

“Kyaaah!”

Horan tried to pull out her hand while letting out a unique scream, but I swung my sword and completely split her palm in half.

“You fight by following your instincts.”

Judging by the ears protruding from her head, she was definitely a beastman.

Beastmen had outstanding basic physical abilities, so there were often those who fought with instinct and strength rather than martial arts.

Especially Horan seemed to have a strong combat tendency towards that style.

For me, it was the easiest type to deal with.

“I’ve fought countless beasts that are far bigger, faster, and stronger than you.”

Fighting according to instinct ultimately depends on one’s own skill.

Her level was still far from being able to exert strength in front of me.

“Ugh!”

After exchanging a few blows, Horan stepped back with a painful groan. Hare and the other Tudogs also gathered around their leader but couldn’t do anything else to resist.

At that moment, noticing that their leader was in danger, the other Tudog members who had been blocking the Elgrid security forces also arrived one after another and blocked my way.

“It’s a shame I can’t kill you because there are too many witnesses.”

As I was about to swing my sword while expressing my honest feelings.

“Aaargh!”

“Calm down! It’s okay!”

My sister’s condition was unusual.

She suddenly flew up into the sky, breaking through even the magic of Eris, the guardian, and flew towards the city.

Then the destruction began.

I couldn’t help but frown as I watched my sister flying around and destroying things here and there.

“You son of a…”

The man who was the leader twisted the corners of his mouth with effort and said,

“Your sister will die if you don’t stop her now.”

“What?”

“It’s a deal. We’ll disappear from here, so go and stop your sister. The restraints I put on her will weaken as I get further away.”

“……”

I wanted to chew them to death right now.

Although their numbers had increased, I was confident that I could kill them even if it took time.

‘But if I go to stop my sister now?’

Could the professors and Eris arrest all of them?

Of course, I shook my head.

Most of them would have the powers of beasts from the Demon Realm Forest implanted in them.

If Hare used Charlie’s illusion technique alone, they could easily escape from the professors or Eris.

Then what about entrusting my sister to the professors and Eris?

That seemed to have a better chance, but the leader, who noticed my contemplation and began to heal himself with healing magic, declared that I shouldn’t have such silly thoughts.

“If you don’t go now, consider your sister finished. Should I make your sister go completely berserk and turn her into a complete beast? If you choose now, you can at least leave her with some reason.”

“……”

I slowly turned my head and looked at my sister flying around the city.

In my previous life, I chose only thinking of myself.

My sister must have become a dragonkin, not even human, and fought forcibly in the Demon Realm Forest, meeting a miserable end.

It was as if I had abandoned my sister.

And once again, a choice was presented to me.

The Tudog members who knew about the ‘Earliest Apocalypse.’ If I caught them, I could grasp the clues to save the world more clearly.

I could gain information I didn’t know and take a much bigger step towards the ending to save the world from the god of death.

But.

‘I can’t abandon my sister again.’

Even though I was an incompetent younger brother, I didn’t want to let my sister face a lonely death again, leaving her alone.

This time, it was time for me to go find my sister.

Leaving behind my boiling emotions, I slowly twisted my body.

I saw the leader’s mana surging as he prepared to warp. The dean and other professors began to unleash their magic, but the other Tudog members blocked it using their respective abilities.

“A wise choice, Daniel McLean.”

At the leader’s words mixed with ridicule, I slightly turned my head and glared at them.

“We’ll meet again soon.”

Leaving behind the guys disappearing in a blue light, I immediately ran towards my sister, and Eris followed.

“You did well.”

“…Thank you.”

Even though Eris had to catch the Tudogs for the sake of the young elf’s treatment, she respected and understood my choice.

“I’ll help you with magic. Definitely, as the Tudogs disappeared, the mental magic restraining Diana began to weaken.”

“You mean it will be released if some time passes?”

“Yes, definitely.”

Good, then it’s a race against time now.

I had to prevent my sister from causing any more damage.

This was for the sake of Elgrid and also for my sister.

If someone died by those sharp claws, my sister would suffer from guilt every night.

She had an unyielding belief, but she was also inflexible.

“I’ll go right away.”

“You may feel a bit awkward or have difficulty adjusting.”

Hearing those words reminded me of the old days, and a smile slipped out.

“Don’t worry.”

I’ve already practiced a lot with you before.

I flew towards my sister, riding Eris’ wind magic. I could hear Eris’ surprised voice from behind, seeing my skillful appearance.

I pressed down on the mana gathering on my sister’s horns with my sword. Releasing the sword, I immediately hugged my sister and got caught in the explosion together.

“Aaargh!”

Even in the fierce afterwind, my sister spread her wings and tried her best to maintain her balance and not fall.

While doing so, she struggled to shake me off or hit my back with her tail.

“You used to like it when I clung to you like gum, but now that you’re older, you’re pushing me away!”

My sister flew into a nearby wall, as if trying to get me off somehow. I hit my head directly against the chimney of the building, and for a moment, I felt dizzy from the pain, but I still didn’t let go.

“Yeah, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have left you behind.”

Words that I couldn’t have said if my sister was in her right mind flowed out without me realizing it.

“At that time, I was expelled from school and thought I was betrayed by my childhood friends. People were cursing at me, calling me a criminal.”

It was too much hardship for me to endure at the age of 18.

“But I should have waited for you a bit. Or I should have gone to find you instead of running away alone.”

How much did she search for me?

How much did she wander the continent for me?

In the midst of that, she fell into the hands of the Tudogs’ beasts and became a dragonkin.

My sister, who was mind-controlled and died fighting in the Demon Realm Forest.

“I’m really sorry, sister.”

My only family who doubted everyone but never doubted that she loved me.

Arrows from the Elgrid security forces flew in.

I hurriedly reached out and took the arrows instead, and then my sister’s eyes trembled.

“Yeah, you’re regaining your senses a bit.”

“Uh, uh…”

“Don’t talk like a fool. Always be dignified, lively, that’s the McLean way.”

When I said that with a smile, something inside my sister began to struggle as if fighting.

“Daniel!”

Eris was preparing to catch us with wind magic from below.

I grabbed my sister’s horns flying towards the moon and pulled her down, and my confused sister began to plummet again.

Eris tried to catch us, but seeing my sister’s tremendous speed, she opened her eyes in surprise and began to pour more mana in a hurry.

If we fell like this, my sister and I would die.

But Eris wasn’t the only mage.

“Geez, McLean!”

The dean’s mana was overlaid.

Not only that, but the magic of the other professors who followed began to stack one layer after another, finishing the preparations to catch us siblings.

Even though we fell, no sound was heard.

However, at the last moment, I clearly felt it.

My sister twisted her body, hugged me, and landed on her back and wings.

“…Sister?”

Wrapped in a wind barrier and landing on the ground, I called out in a trembling voice.

My sister’s hand, covered in hard scales, fiercely hugged me.

I tried to feel the warmth for a moment, but my sister’s fierce claws dug into my back, and blood dripped out.

My sister’s hand, transformed into a dragonkin, was fatal to human flesh even if it just grazed.

“S-Sorry! Daniel, are you okay?”

My sister hurriedly let me go and looked at her hideously transformed hand with fearful eyes, becoming teary-eyed.

I hugged such a sister even more tightly.

“It’s okay, wherever you go, however you change, Diana McLean is my sister.”

“Da-niel.”

“Thank you for coming back.”

My sister’s touch wrapped around me very carefully and cautiously.

*

Demon Realm Forest.

Between the lush black trees, a blue light shone down, and the Tudog members caught their breath.

“Let’s heal the injured first.”

At the leader’s words, everyone found a spot and began treatment. Especially looking at Horan’s palm split in half, a bitter taste rose to their throats.

They could heal it, but there would be some aftereffects.

‘Even Horan, our main force, was beaten like that.’

What if Daniel McLean had abandoned his family ties there and decided to kill them?

Just thinking about it made the back of his head feel chilled.

Although they suffered unexpected damage in a place they went to warm up and enjoy before conquering the Demon Realm Forest, they gained an achievement that surpassed it.

‘There’s no need to conquer the Demon Realm Forest anymore.’

To stop the army of death that would come in the future, they needed an army of equal caliber.

The Demon Realm Forest was the place where resources to raise such an army were most concentrated.

Extract power from the beasts, arm them with treasures hidden in the forest.

If they killed even the ancient beasts and obtained their power, they could create the strongest army that surpassed the limits of the species.

But they discovered the ‘Earliest Apocalypse,’ so there was no need for that anymore.

They just had to go and kill that woman.

‘The future direction has been decided.’

Of course, the wall protecting her, Daniel McLean, seemed quite high, but if they prepared properly and launched an all-out attack, killing just that one woman would be easy.

The moment the leader of the Tudogs was filled with confidence that he could save the world.

From deep within the forest, a fierce killing intent began to pour out.

A ferocious killing intent they had never felt before in the Demon Realm Forest.

But it wasn’t an unfamiliar sensation for the Tudog members.

“This is?”

With their senses sharpened by the implantation of beasts’ powers, no one failed to notice it.

At first, the range was so wide that they couldn’t sense where the killing intent was being scattered from, but as that being approached closer, everyone’s gaze was drawn to one place.

“No way.”

They couldn’t mistake this killing intent that pierced their entire bodies.

Because it was the same one the boy who had been glaring at them just 30 minutes ago had been emitting.

“How?”

How is he here?

How can he appear from deep within the forest?

The distance from Elgrid, where Aios Academy was located, to the Demon Realm Forest was considerable.

Even if there was a mage who could use warp, they had to come here directly and mark the coordinates.

But as far as he knew, the only mage who could mark coordinates deep in the Demon Realm Forest was…

‘There is!’

But how?

What kind of relationship did that woman have with that boy?

Separate from the leader finding the answer, there was no time to question the causal relationship.

Because the boy wearing a school uniform was glaring at them, emitting an ominous aura as he pushed through the undergrowth.

“I told you we’d meet again soon.”

In Aios Academy, it was a battle.

A bloody fight for life that began in an equal relationship where both sides put their lives on the line.

But this place was the Demon Realm Forest.

The boy had never engaged in an act that could be called a battle in this forest even once.

This was a hunt.
