Missed Chances

Sitting in Redra Bit's car, Bai Mo was breathing deeply, then transferred the toxins in his body back to Nidhogg's Bite. The emerald green light, like an undercurrent, returned to the blade.

Losing some of Nidhogg's materials has little impact; in terms of poison, this dagger's Jormungandr poison alone is enough to kill a god. The addition of some Albion's materials has actually given the blade a faint shimmering sheen.

The toxicity has not diminished at all; in fact, it has become even sharper. Previously, because it could only rely on poison to fight, this weapon was actually quite limited. Now, it is much more versatile.

Melusine, nestled beside Bai Mo, looked at the Nidhogg's Bite with a hint of curiosity.

"This thing also has the aura of a dragon, and a very strong one at that. I've never seen such a strong Dragon Kind aura before; it has a chilling, malevolent feel to it."

"It was indeed an evil dragon. It took quite a bit of effort to deal with it. Oh, was it one of your kind?"

"I suppose so, but I trust you more. Bai Mo isn't the kind of bloodthirsty guy. My kinsman probably did something heinous that forced you to kill him."

"Don't worry about it. Just like humans don't feel any affection for murderers, I have no sympathy for that guy. I'm just a little curious because I've never seen any other dragons before."

Bai Mo and Melusine were talking, and it was clear that Melusine was also very concerned about the other dragons. As for Bai Mo, he began to think about other things.

At that time, Ortlinde's body transformed into a dragon because she had been bathed in the blood of Nidhogg's heart.

However, I lack the relevant knowledge and can only gain some experience from Servant like Siegfried of Chaldea.

In this regard, Melusine has absolutely the most comprehensive knowledge.

"Huh? Not inferior to Albion's dragon bones?" Hearing this, Koyanskaya curiously came closer, examining the dagger in Bai Mo's hand with the eyes of a professional appraiser.

"Get away, Beast larvae."

Melusine cast a wary glance at Koyanskaya. She didn't want anything like the Beast getting too close to Bai Mo, and besides, she hadn't settled accounts with Koyanskaya for her designs on Albion yet.

"Oh dear, I was just looking at this treasure, hmm~"

Koyanskaya took a deep breath, as if she were smoking a Cuban cigar.

"Ah, the alluring fragrance of this wild beast, and there's more than one! Oh, the scent is so strong, so powerful! Whew, I feel like I'm going to faint..."

You've been poisoned.

Bai Mo impatiently activated his Magnetic Field Power to expel the tiny toxins from his body. Afterwards, Koyanskaya gave an awkward but polite smile.

"Ah, indeed, the more alluring a being is, the more deadly it is. Mr. Bai Mo, could you perhaps tell me about the whereabouts of these two beasts...?"

As Koyanskaya spoke, she flashed a captivating smile, making it seem to anyone who didn't know better than to be inviting the person before her to spend the night together.

Bai Mo shrugged and said:

"Those two are in Scandinavian Lostbelt, didn't you notice them back then?"

"What?!"

Koyanskaya was heartbroken. She clutched her chest as if she had gone bankrupt—no, she was completely bankrupt. These two were on par with Albion! How could she have focused all her attention on Surtr in the sky when she was in Northern Europe?

The Scandinavian Lostbelt are gone now! What a huge loss!

Koyanskaya, unaware of the Lostbelt's relocation, shrank back into a corner. Even she was inevitably affected by the news. After all, the Lostbelt's disappearance meant that the two beasts would never be found again.

Some beasts, once missed, are gone forever.

Meanwhile, Ritsuka, recalling the situation, sighed, "Yes, that guy's pressure was suffocating. But what I remember most vividly was that—"

Oh oh oh oh Ophelia!

"Ritsuka!" Ophelia's annoyed voice came through the communicator, and for a moment, the Chaldea communications room was filled with cheerful laughter.

Melusine asked curiously, and after learning what had happened, she couldn't help but cover her face and chuckle.

"What? That's... the sound of a love confession? How embarrassing!"

"You should have some self-awareness," Bavan Shi said irritably, while Melusine gave him a look that said, "What are you talking about? I don't know."

Sitting in the car, the two did not join in the laughter and chatter. Morgan and Habetrot's gazes were complicated; the former had a hint of nostalgia in his eyes, while the latter huddled in a corner, secretly wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes with a cloth in her hand.

"We're almost there. Orkney is over there, and the Rain Clan Bell is right there. And, if nothing unexpected happens, that girl with short pink hair should be there too."

As Morgan spoke, a hint of reminiscence crept into his voice.

"Will Mash be there? But Your Majesty, how do you know?"

Ritsuka asked with a hint of doubt, while Morgan looked certain.

"That's natural, after all... it was Ash who placed her here. We'll probably encounter some obstacles from deceased fairies along the way, but it shouldn't be a problem for us."

"That's for sure. No matter what the enemy is, I will cut them down. Please watch me closely, Bai Mo, Your Majesty."

"You're really energetic! I wish you had this much energy when you were working for me."

Morgan said helplessly, while glancing unfriendly at Melusine, who was nestled next to Bai Mo and had her face almost pressed against his chest.

Forget it, it was a political marriage after all. All I need is a formal title. Besides, Melusine is a decent fighting force. There will definitely be a major battle in the future, and this guy will come in handy. At least it's good that she's not on the opposing side.

Although no contract was signed, Aurora is killed, this guy will be completely devoted to Bai Mo...

Just as Morgan was mentally calculating some basic witch tactics, Redra Bit, who was pulling the carriage, suddenly stopped his rapid pace.

"Hey everyone, there seems to be someone waving at us from ahead."

Everyone looked over, Ritsuka immediately lit up with joy. Could it be that the blue figure, and that hooded outfit... wasn't that Mr. Cú Chulainn of the Caster class?

"It's Grimr. I didn't expect to see him here, and in this state."

Morgan's words left Ritsuka somewhat puzzled.

"Judging from your expression, you seem to know him, but be careful not to call him by the wrong name here. In the Fairy Britain, he can only be called Grimr. If you call him by any other name, his power will decrease significantly."

Bai Mo narrowed his eyes slightly, his attention entirely focused on the face that looked exactly like Cú Chulainn's. He was wearing an eye patch, and for some reason, it gave him a sense of familiarity.
