Helmut: The Forsaken Child - Chapter 298
# 298
Helmut Episode
298 Area,
who looked at Ygrel and Elaga alternately, finished calculating and spoke.
“I think it would be a good thing for you two to be together. “We are not trying to pass through the barrier like before, but rather we are trying to make a hole in the barrier and escape.”
Ygrel tilted his head as if interested.
[It means temporarily breaking the sacred barrier.]
“The sacred barrier has a powerful repair ability that comes from its infinite source. So the crack will only be allowed for a moment. Ygrel must then pass through the barrier with all his might. “There is a risk that all magical energy will be lost when you escape the barrier.”
[There is no use in trying to scare me. Because I already decided. Fear is something that only a helpless leopard can eat.]
Ygrel flapped his wings confidently. Elaga snorted.
[Who is helpless? Just tear up that barrier and that’s it.]
But a strange light flashed in Elaga’s eyes as if something was blocking her.
“Even if we go further than that, if two big people like that walk around, it’s going to be an uproar.”
Charlotte opened her mouth as if she was worried.
A bird the size of a house and a leopard. It’s hard to gauge the size of a bird when it’s flying, so Elaga is the problem.
That body and the magical energy emanating from it. Even if it lived in the forest unnoticed by humans, it would have caused a stir in the area.
In other words, all animals in the forest will not be able to withstand Elaga’s presence and will run away. Because animals have more instinct than humans.
That kind of commotion was sure to be noticed, and Elaga’s presence was something that would be difficult to hide in the first place.
No matter how safe Elaga is, humans who see him will feel fear and threat.
There would be no country that would meekly accept the existence of Elaga. It was a natural question.
Area shook her head.
“Here, we have no choice but to use magic in a limited way, so lightweight magic may be limited, but it’s different outside. “Because we have two cooperative archmages.”
The magic that fills the forest of Pahe interferes with the use of magic. Unless you are a spirit magician like Xian who manifests power through spirits, you have no choice but to mainly use magic that is as simple and easy as possible.
But outside, it’s a different story.
When Helmut and Elaga talked about going out together, Area had already thought about it.
Area collected the golem and pushed it into subspace. There was no choice but to repair it outside.
“Then let’s end the story and hurry. “We will have to leave before we move from the temple.”
After a while, Elaga, with the lightening magic applied, raised her front paw as if curious.
[Oh, my body feels light! Is this magic? It’s really amazing. If I jump, I think I’ll fly up to the sky.]
[And I’ll fall!]
Igrel sarcastically said.
However, even if it fell from the sky, Elaga’s body would not be harmed and only a huge hole would be created in the forest. The power of Elaga’s magical energy was enormous.
“Now, if you get on Ygrel-sama’s back…”
[Oh, it’s annoying. Why is this leopard going out? It’s just going to stay here.]
[What are you saying, quickly turn your back before I dig in my claws?]
It’s natural for Igrel, who has to give up his back defenselessly to a monster stronger than himself, to feel anxious. .
But the will to go out was greater.
As Alea suggested, Elaga climbed onto Ygrel’s back.
Ygrel opened his eyes wide.
[Oh, it’s lighter than I thought? But Ella, can you keep standing there?]
It was just as Ygrel said.
It was possible to fly with Elaga on the back due to the weight. However, because his surface area was so large, Elaga’s body filled Ygrel’s back.
Birds don’t always fly horizontally. If you try to climb through the center, your body will have to tilt, and it is difficult not to slip unless you dig your claws in and hold on.
Area came up with a solution.
“You’ll need a line. There is no room for people to ride. “People need to climb on Elaga’s back.”
If the golem could be operated, it would have been simple if a person had climbed on the golem and Elaga had climbed on Ygrel’s back and flown closely. That hot-tempered and extreme bird made things difficult.
Isn’t it obvious that they won’t be able to fly properly if Ygrel interferes?
But that wasn’t what mattered now.
“I think I’ll have to look for a rope that’s useful for something like that.”
Susan looked around with a puzzled expression.
However, Area was already fully prepared when entering the Forest of Pahe.
She immediately searched through subspace and pulled out a long string imbued with strengthening magic. It was a line as thick as the thumb and index finger held together in a circle.
“Even if it’s uncomfortable, please bear with it.”
Elaga got down to the ground, and Area and Helmut tied a rope to Ygrel’s back.
The rope was not intended to tie Elaga and Ygrel.
It’s like a saddle that holds a knot on Ygrel’s back so it doesn’t slip.
Ygrel immediately grumbled.
[Ugh, it’s stuffy. What is this?]
[It looks really nice. It looks like a human vehicle. If you want to go out like that, you have to endure that.]
However, Elaga, who was sarcastic, made an expression of disbelief when Helmut and Area approached him holding a rope.
“If this many people are to climb safely, Elaga will also need a saddle. “The wind is strong in the sky.”
Elaga frowned at Helmut’s words.
[Fuck it! I am not a vehicle for humans! I’m trying to post that to this strongest body in Pahe’s forest!
]
[I still hate it! [They keep bringing up those two…]
Perhaps because of her pride, Elaga strongly opposed it. At that time, Sarah stuck her head out from the side. The girl’s eyes sparkled brightly.
“Mr. Elaga. I think it would be really reassuring for Sarah to have Ella clinging to your back. “I really want to go out with Elaga, but can you be patient for a little while?”
[Yes? okay? Then…]
Elaga nodded impatiently. Unlike Helmut, he had a soft spot for Sarah, who was cute and lively and had a child-like quality ever since she was young.
While Elaga was quiet, Helmut and Area installed a saddle on his back.
Preparations were completed quickly.
If Elaga gets on Igrel’s back, the rest can get on Elaga’s back.
Ygrel was also large, and with Elaga standing on top of it, it looked like a towering hill. There was no problem with the prosecutors, but the rest was the problem.
“It feels like I’m hiking.”
Sian grunted as he managed to climb up to Ella’s back.
In order to save even a little bit of mana, I climbed up with my bare body. Charlotte, who had jumped up first, grabbed his wrist and pulled him up.
“Be careful, Senior Xian.”
“Oh, thank you.”
When Xian spoke as if she was embarrassed, Asuka started an argument, wondering what she was displeased with.
“You poor guy, with such a weak body, would you be able to escape if your house were on fire?”
“If a fire breaks out, just put it out. This body is a wizard. “What would you use a water spirit for?”
“You’re the kind of guy who, at the slightest hint of smoke, will squeak, grab his neck, and fall down.”
As Asuka began to argue loudly as if her toe had been stepped on, Xian’s eyes narrowed. I figured out why it was like that.
“Are you…”
Before Sian could finish speaking, a cold voice came from Area, who was holding Helmut’s hand.
“You two, stop making noise and take a seat. “Sian, I don’t need to tell you where your location is, right?”
“I understand.”
Xian, who glanced over Ella’s back, sat down in the very back seat.
Since we don’t know what might happen in the sky, this was to collect if anyone was blown away by the wind.
Asuka and Charlotte sat side by side in front of him. Charlotte asked, looking at Asuka.
“Did I make some mistake? “Why were you arguing?”
Asuka slowly averted her gaze at her worried expression.
“Nothing. Why are we fighting for a day or two? I’m more nervous than that. “It’s the final hurdle.”
“Yes, I understand.”
Charlotte nodded, straightened her posture, and sat down. Although she didn’t expect to overcome great danger, it was a completely uneventful forest adventure for Charlotte.
Susan and Sarah sat side by side in front of them. Susan took care of Sarah’s seat and asked her to do so.
“Hold on tight Sarah. “You must not do anything dangerous.”
“Are you going to fly out of the forest like this? and!”
Whenever Sarah cried about losing a friend, she was always as cheerful as ever. Once Helmut and Area sat down, preparations for departure were completed. All personnel were on board.
Seven humans above Elaga. The only bird on earth that could fly with this many people on board was in Pahe Forest.
Ygrel, who had been crouching down and waiting for all the luggage to be loaded, slowly spread his legs.
[It’s heavy. This is my first time flying with my back so heavy.]
If it weren’t for the monster, it would have been an impossible flight. Area said calmly.
“The wind spirit will help you float. “Please leave when you are ready.”
[They say we have to hurry? There is no need to hesitate.]
And Ygrel began to flap his wings.
The strong wind generated by the flapping of the wings carrying the magic energy shook the surrounding trees. It felt like a typhoon was raging around him.
The huge bird took a little longer than usual to rise and began to fly.
The wind spirit formed an air current from below and pulled him upward.
Ygrel, who received strength, soared into the air like a glider. His magical energy calmed the surrounding atmosphere and created a vacuum in the center, enabling smooth flight.
The scenery below slowly receded. A vast gray forest.
Everyone looked down at the forest of Pahe moving away. It was especially a new experience for Helmut and Susan Serra.
How long did we spend in this dangerous place? But I will never again set foot on the ground below.
The earth was moving away and the sky was getting closer.
Then, at some point,
Elaga moaned [Ugh.] and her back trembled.
Everyone riding on it felt the vibrations from Elaga’s body.
“What’s wrong?”
Helmut also looked puzzled at Area’s question.
“Is it because the barrier is getting closer?”
The energy of divine power was slowly spreading from above. Although it was not as strong as the barrier in the other direction, its effect was still effective.
[You sure you don’t need to pee?]
Igrel looked anxious.
It was terrifying to think of this large leopard urinating on my beautiful feathers.
But there was no answer from Elaga.
