Midnight, full moon, ruined town.
Hostile followers, charlatans praying for heavenly intervention, shivering refugees.
Cracked earth, and suddenly, an ancient teleportation gate rising from the ground!
Todd recognizes this teleportation gate because he's seen it before. In fact, you could say his kidnapping by Dorian is related to this teleportation gate.
Because on that teleportation gate, with magic runes, two big words are written:
[Sain]!
"Sain Dungeon!?"
Todd couldn't help but exclaim, his body, which had just managed to stand, shook a bit and fell back to the ground, blankly staring at this suddenly appearing teleportation gate.
Earlier, he had prayed, hoping for a god to descend and save him.
As soon as the prayer was completed, the teleportation gate of Sain Dungeon rose from the ground.
"Could it be... because of ..."
He blinked mindlessly, unsure whether he deserved to have such a dungeon erge suddenly.
Just then, the earthquake triggered by the appearance of the teleportation gate erupted.
The suddenly appearing teleportation gate disrupted the ever-present potential battle atmosphere, and due to the violent quaking of the ground, crevices continued to appear on this desolate land.
The people standing here wobbled, unable to stand steady; so even stepped into the crevices, struggling to drag themselves out. A little later and they'd be remade by Mother Earth.
"Get out of the way, don't go there!"
Anleisi waved her hand slightly, and a flower made of holy light rose under each Holy Light Knight, lifting them to hover above the ground, unbothered by the cracks.
His brother, the still expressionless man, suddenly punched the ground, raising the seismic level.
Centered on his fist, counter-cracks ford toward the teleportation gate, ultimately a rough stone wall erged from the ground, seemingly stabilizing the ground, drastically reducing their side's vibration amplitude.
"Ha, just showing off?"
Hevi opened his arms with fiery charisma as if embracing the world, and when his burning cloak touched the ground, the entire street behind him was covered by a fiery red carpet!
The people on the carpet were completely unaffected by the earthquake and even felt rejuvenated by the flas.
Todd was stunned.
These, these Starfire Church and Holy Light Church people, how can they have so much visual effect? What level do these techniques require?
He initially thought both sides were rely regular church soldiers, but now, looking at them, these few must be the pillars of their respective churches, right? Maybe even higher status!
"Bang!"
The doors of the broken houses suddenly opened, boys and girls rushed out, and Todd rembered they hadn't escaped danger yet.
"Co back, over here!"
But it was as if the children didn't hear, rushing into other houses, pushing grandpas and grandmas in wheelchairs out, but just then, the crevices reached their feet.
The crevices didn't look big, and had stopped expanding; maybe if they didn't run, they wouldn't encounter accidents. But who could say for certain?
Anleisi was about to rescue them, raising holy light under the children's feet, but Hevi more directly threw out several tongues of fire, sweeping up those who hadn't yet run from the houses, directly pulling them out and tossing them outside the town.
Saving people ought to be a benevolent act, but his rough way of tossing left others at a loss for words to describe his actions.
"Still the sa child lover? You had no intention of saving anyone else, huh?" Hevi taunted Anleisi across the wall.
But the other side didn't bother with him, only keeping a stern gaze on the teleportation gate.
[Sain] these two words, just like those on previous teleportation gates, were engraved at the top of the doorfra; neither beautifully nor emitting light, yet just these two words being here sufficed to draw everyone's attention.
Staring at the teleportation gate, Anleisi seed to recall so unpleasant mories, her face turning sour like she'd tasted sothing foul, so instinctively, she drew her military knife from her waist, stopped by those around her lest she charged at the teleportation gate.
"Why would the teleportation gate of Sain Dungeon appear here? Clearly this place has nothing to do with its previous territory!" exclaid soone among the Holy Light Knights disbelievingly.
"Oh no, just seeing this makes feel awful, like sothing bad could happen anyti!" soone said, retreating repeatedly, clutching their chest like they had heart trouble.
"I-I-I went in with that traitor Bright Light earlier... it's full of demons inside, I'm never going back again!" soone else scread, from the tone, seeming to have past involvent with Sain.
"Calm down, everyone!"
Anleisi's body exploded with dazzling holy light, instantly calming everyone touched by it, far surpassing any calming technique.
"It's just a dungeon, why panic? Could it rampage right here now? As long as we don't go in, we'll be safe!"
"You're Holy Light Knights, why this panic? And don't you forget my strength as the Hero?"
She shut her eyes and reopened them with renewed confidence.
"Every ti I get angry I lose consciousness, and each ti I awaken, no enemy is ever left standing!"
Perhaps uplifted by her or the holy light, the Holy Light Knights truly rallied.
Truly, as long as they didn't recklessly enter Sain Dungeon, unless Sain went on a rampage, they'd be unhard.
Sain Dungeon, to any mber of the Holy Light Church, was a na darkened by history, with many avoiding ntion entirely.
Primarily due to Sain Dungeon leading to the ergence of the traitor Bright Light, causing chaos within the church!
Sain Dungeon is the enemy of Holy Light!
However, for Starfire Church, the situation differs.
"Oh, it's Sain Dungeon, haven't seen it in ages, really missed it!"
Hevi couldn't help but whistle, rushing to embrace the coarse teleportation gate like eting a long-lost blood relative.
For his exaggerated actions, the other Starfire Church mbers...
Each cheered up, morale high, feeling capable of fighting ten each.
Their faith in Gwyn hails from Sain; now, Sain's teleportation gate is before them, what more to say?
"Gwyn forever hooray!"
Are these folks insane…
Todd, watching the Starfire Church dancing around the teleportation gate, barely kept his desire to mock in check, glancing at his house, hinting with his eyes to Dorian who remained unmoved behind the door, and then slowly began moving toward the town's exit.
With everyone's attention drawn by Sain Dungeon, he had to run fast!
However, life isn't that kind.
Just as he took a step to flee, the teleportation gate of Sain Dungeon glowed.
The next mont, an irresistible pull erged from within!
"Why go the hard way!!!"
