Otherwise, at this time tomorrow, she would have been handed over to that terrifying execution squad, by which time the possibility of a successful escape would likely be much lower.
But could this mysterious person who suddenly appeared save her?
She had always been despised, unwelcome by anyone, treated only as a valuable item, and now she had even lost that sole value.
Thinking this, the girl’s eyes clouded over with a trace of gloom once again.
However, what happened next surprised the girl.
The mysterious boy suddenly produced a knife in his hand, holding it firmly.
It was a knife radiating heat, with red patterns all over the blade, forming a divine design that was clearly extraordinary.
The boy swiftly unsheathed the knife and slashed, cutting through the cell bars as easily as paper, with a swift sound of metal clashing.
With the knife sheathed, the boy stood as if he had just done a trivial thing and extended his hand to the girl sitting in the dungeon corner.
The girl stared blankly, unable to react.
The boy urged her swiftly, making the girl shiver all over and subconsciously reach out and grab his hand.
From his hand, a warmth she had never felt before passed through her palm, making the girl widen her eyes slightly again.
The boy pulled her out of the dungeon just like that, like a knight rescuing the princess from an evil castle, powerful and handsome.
The girl’s unadorned face blushed without trace.
However, when the girl came to her senses, she panicked again.
"Oh no!" the girl blurted out in a panic, "Let’s hurry!"
Reiger showed a puzzled expression.
The girl spoke rapidly.
"There are fairies from the Wind Clan guarding outside this dungeon!" she said quickly, "The fairies of the Wind Clan have the most sensitive ears, and they must have heard the sound of you cutting the bars!"
No sooner had the girl finished speaking than Reiger already heard a mess of footsteps rapidly approaching.
Shortly thereafter, several figures appeared.
They were unlike the dwarves just now, possessing fine features and tall statures with sharp ears, highly similar to the elves of Earth Mistake World.
As soon as they appeared, they immediately spotted Reiger and the girl in front of the broken dungeon.
Suddenly, the beings the girl referred to as the Wind Clan fairies let out roars.
"Custer has escaped!"
"The fake Child of Prophecy has escaped!"
"How dare she escape?"
The fairies of the Wind Clan roared as they swooped in.
Surprisingly, despite their simple and even outdated garb similar to that of the girl, resembling villagers from some rural area, their skills were exceptionally good, no less than Lv.5.
"At least Lv.5 villagers?"
This joke really was too much.
Thinking this, Reiger’s actions didn’t slow down.
He slowly drew his sword, ready to strike.
Seeing this, the girl hastily called out.
At her shout, Reiger stopped his movements to attack with his sword and switched to using magic instead.
"[Magic Resistance Enhancement: Group All-Race Binding]."
Accompanying Reiger’s chant, an Array expanded on the ground.
The Wind Clan fairies, who were rapidly approaching, were immediately restrained by Reiger’s Binding Magic, completely bound by invisible chains and unable to move.
They struggled fiercely, their bodies bursting with a formidable Magic Power, exhibiting extraordinary strength even under the effects of Reiger’s Binding Magic and still managing some degree of movement.
Reiger looked at these fairies, his interest suddenly piqued.
He hadn’t expected to encounter such a situation.
Just a few pitchfork-wielding villagers, yet they could display power far beyond humans. This situation was something Reiger had only encountered in the Nasalik Underground Tomb.
In each floor of that place, there were servants of high levels that rushed at him like a swarm of beasts when Reiger breached in, providing him much enjoyment for a long time.
Now, a few insignificant figures actually possessed such power, undeniably stirring the thrilling side of Reiger’s heart.
But the girl, as if seeing through Reiger’s thoughts, suddenly grabbed him.
"Let’s take this chance and run!"
The girl, not giving Reiger a chance to harm the villagers, pulled him and ran towards the dungeon entrance.
"Stop... stop right there...!"
The bound fairies were still struggling and speaking unabashedly, causing the girl pulling Reiger towards the entrance to look disheartened.
Seeing this, Reiger furrowed his brow involuntarily but said nothing, letting the girl pull him out of the underground.
The two only ran up the stairs for a short while before the entrance appeared.
The next moment, the boy and the girl together left the underground, returning to the surface and saw the sky.
