"Uh…Robin?" Qing Lin felt a burning sensation in his throat, and his entire body was in intense pain as if someone had cramped and broken his bones. He opened his eyes with a painful groan, and what entered his eyes was the little loli's worried gaze.
"Ah! Mommy, Brother Qing Lin is awake!" Little Robin saw that Qing Lin had finally woken up. After cheering, he turned around and called out to his mother.
"Is that so? Mister Qing Lin, you're finally awake." At this moment, Qing Lin realized that he was in a sealed space. The walls around him seemed to be the inner layer of the trees, and Orbiya was observing the outside through the only hole.
"Robin, come and look over here. If there's anything, tell me. I need to speak with Mister Qing Lin.”Olbiya patted little Robin's head and ordered.
"Yes!" The sensible Robin naturally didn't have any complaints. He ran to the hole and began to observe the outside.
"…Miss Orbiya, what's wrong with me? Where is this place?" Qing Lin smiled lightly when he saw Little Robin's serious expression. Unexpectedly, this smile affected some wound on his face, causing him to grimace in pain.
"I checked just now. There are no major injuries on your body. There are only some slight burns, but your body seems to be very tired, to the point where you can't feel anything at all.”As she said that, a strange expression appeared on her face. It was unbelievable that her body was not injured at all in such a huge explosion.
After the explosion, she and Robin were far away from each other, but she was still temporarily deaf from the sound. It was obvious how terrifying the explosion was.
After she finished speaking, she looked at Qing Lin's obviously dissatisfied expression and pursed her lips into a smile."Are you asking why we went there?”
She looked at Qing Lin, her eyes full of sincerity."Because I can't watch a person who is sincerely good to us die like this.”
" But fortunately, when we got there, it was already in ruins. You were lying there sleeping soundly. If we had arrived a little later, you might have been moved away by the navy." She raised her eyebrows and smiled, looking quite girlish.
"Ruins?" Qing Lin repeated her words strangely. In his memory, he seemed to have been very angry after hearing Sakasugi's words, and then…
"Then…what happened?" He rubbed his head and tried hard to recall.
However, he couldn't remember!
In his impression, there didn't seem to be any…
————————————————————————————————————————
"You monster! Since that was the case, then let's disappear together!”
"Roar!"
————————————————————————————————————————
"Ugh!" Qing Lin hugged his head that was in extreme pain. He seemed to have recalled something in his mind, but it flashed past and he was unable to accurately grasp it.
"Alright, Mister Qing Lin, if you can't think of it, then don't think about it anymore!”Upon seeing this, Orbiya quickly stopped them and continued to tell them what they had seen to divert Qing Lin's attention.
"When we got there, we only saw you. We didn't see the navy, so we determined that you must have won the battle. After we moved you here, we waited for you to wake up.”
"…Here? Where is this place?" Qing Lin was still confused. He won? Why didn't he remember? What was going on?
" This is a secret area in Area No. 3. Previously, it was where we…where we stored our information. It's a space hollowed out by the branch of the Tree of Omniscience. We can observe the situation below.”At the mention of " us ", Orbiya's expression darkened. These companions were basically dead by now, right?
" Miss Orbiya, you should know that the navy's attack this time is the Demon Slayer Order. Their goal is to wipe out the entire Ohara. Staying here is no different from waiting for death.”When Qing Lin heard this, he could not help but remind.
" I know. That's why we have to wait. You woke up at the right time, Mr. Aobayashi. I don't know why, but the number of soldiers in Area No. 3 has decreased. I don't know if they have retreated or if they have other missions."”
When Qing Lin heard this, his expression turned serious. If it was the latter, then it would be fine. If it was the former, then it meant that the relevant personnel of the navy had already determined that Ohara was about to sink, so they retreated.
"Where should we go now?" Qing Lin struggled to stand up, only to discover an indescribable strangeness.
It wasn't that there were any hidden wounds that prevented him from moving.
His entire body was not listening to him. It was as if the person who used this body in the past was not him at all.
He could even feel that the strength of his body had increased compared to before, but that huge power was shackled by this body and could not be used at all.
This feeling of 'as if his body did not belong to him' made him feel uncomfortable.
Upon seeing this, Orbiya knew that Qing Lin would not be able to fight for the time being. This was not out of her expectations. The traces of the battlefield gave her a rough idea of the undefeatable power of the young man before her.
After experiencing such a battle, it would be strange if his strength did not suffer the slightest loss.
Therefore, she was only slightly disappointed, but she immediately raised her spirits.
"I have a boat on the west bank of Area 3. I took it when I escaped from the navy. I hid it in a very hidden place.”Orbiya told Qing Lin about her plan.
"Good!" Naturally, Qing Lin had no objections.
Therefore, the three of them carefully left this rare place.
As expected, the number of soldiers in Area No. 3 had decreased significantly. After walking for a while, it was rare to see a navy soldier. In other words, it was rare to see a living person.
Even if they saw the navy, they were almost taken care of by the three of them without anyone knowing. Even if Qing Lin did not have much combat power now, Orbiya was not a weak woman.
She might not even be worth mentioning when facing a powerhouse like Sakasugi, but she could still display some of her combat power when dealing with these ordinary soldiers.
Just like that, they walked carefully all the way until the sky was almost completely dark. The three of them finally arrived at the coast that Orbiya had mentioned. The journey was so smooth that Qing Lin found it unbelievable.
What he didn't know was that the two guesses they had mentioned before were actually correct.
The navy did receive a mission-to go to Area 2 to find Lieutenant General Sakasugi.
After they found it, they did receive news from the warship. The Final Cannon was ready and was about to eliminate Ohara.
Since they couldn't get any accurate information because Sakasugi was unconscious, they believed that Qing Lin should have died in the battle with Sakasugi. As a price, Sakasugi also received extremely serious injuries. This was already a great thing in the eyes of the navy soldiers.
As for Nicole Orbiya?
Who knew if she was still alive after the explosion?
And even if she was still alive, how could she survive the bombardment that was going to wipe out the island? The navy did not know that Olbiya had a ship that could take her away.
Therefore, it was completely acceptable for Azure Forest and the others to arrive here so smoothly.
After arriving, Qing Lin noticed that there was something strange about Orbiya's expression.
There was no joy that was about to escape. Her eyes were almost filled with sadness and reluctance.
After finding the boat under a cave by the water and sending the exhausted Robin onto the boat, Orbiya stood silently under the boat.
