Merlin's vines suddenly rushed out in front of hi them back as Merlin ripped into an undead of his own

There were about five more zombies immediately in front of hi with at least two at that roup that she was surrounded by roughly twelve that had all started grouping up on her

It see plenty of work, as the crowd that Merlin saw earlier had alht

Merlin continuedany indication of slowing down His vines had also becoe to several zo, which allowed them to rack up more kills over time, and in turn, more experience for their associated soul

Soht up with Lyonette And besides the first instance where he had to i his head, the two fought comfortably side by side

The rest of the clerics couldn't help but watch as Merlin and Lyonette shredded the re zombies faster than they could respawn

Several minutes had passed, but a loud roar eventually filled the valley Merlin instinctively looked up at the darkness, catching a glimpse of it before it completely faded away

「You have solved an issue caused by a strange phenolers before they finally had the chance to catch their breath

"It's over Finally," Merlin said while panting heavily

He and Lyonette had begun walking towards the rest of the group, half of which had collapsed to the ground, others ere chugging water fro over a et back quickly Stavros, how is Bibar doing?" Cam stood up and shouted once he was done with his prayers

"He hit so sweat fro a streak of blood across his forehead

"Alright, I'll carry him back Thovan, lead us back to base," Ca Bibar

As Carip on thehi and spluttering had startled Cam, and it seemed Bibar had woken up earlier than Stavros had expected, but they both regained their composure relatively quickly

"W-what happened?" Bibar asked in a shaky voice

He i a strong amount of pain in that area, but he didn't make a sound Ca to open his eyes

"Keep your eyes closed," Ca Bibar's eyes with a single hand, "We don't knohat sort of curse you were hit with, but it's safer if you don't open theht now"

"Yes sir" Bibar responded with a weak voice

Ca him around in his arroup all e

"So ere those vines?" Thovan asked Merlin, "They were pretty powerful, are you some kind of--"

"I'h

"What about a dryad?" Thovan asked again, staring at Merlin with a suspicious look

"I'm not a dryad, anthousai, or any other kind of nyhed, "Despite appearances, I am male I'ht to hi to say it out loud

"It's just a power I have," He said as he showed off the vines,a vine dance around in the pal to himself It seemed he didn't want to probe further, either out of respect or he just lost interest

The group continued their journey back into the village, a depressing silence hovered around the group until they heard a loud boo in the distance, which caused all of the to rain pretty soon," Thovan muttered to himself

Merlin noticed that Thovan seeht had disturbed hi for a distraction froroup had eventually arrived at the village Thovan and Merlin were sent to report their successful ht out medical aid for Bibar

Merlin stepped into the building that the teht of stairs, down a corridor and back into the office of Archbishop Ferdinand

"Yes, but there were some Unexpected circuht words to say

Thovan see a hard ti the events that had recently occurred It had reached the point where the archbishop was getting visually frustrated Archbishop Ferdinand turned to Merlin and asked for him to briefly explain the situation instead

"A strange abyss formed in the sky, and fro creature The undead see the roar, and the amount of undead had vastly exceeded the amount that was reported by the scouts" Merlin briefly explained the situation to the best of his ability "Bibar see curse from the creature and attempted to kill himself, but was successfully subdued and healed by Stavros"

"Simple and to the point" Archbishop Ferdinand said with a nod, "Thank you"
