Damn it, damn it! This makes no sense!!!

Yuanna was still under attack by monsters because she was covered in the blood of the monsters.

On the other hand, the monster Arthdal was stepping on was almost completely submerged in the swamp, making him lose any hope of living. Nevertheless, he helped Yuanna by shooting arrows at the monsters running from the other side toward her.

This is how it should be. I have to save her.

Then Yuanna suddenly turned around. She immediately lured the monster in the direction where Arthdal was submerged.

The swamp was filled with gloomy trees. Yuanna pulled a drooping tree trunk to the surface of the swamp and held on tightly to it. Then she kicked the monster while swaying lightly, making good use of the terrain.

Arthdal knows that Yuanna is agile. However, so far she has only used her strength to escape monsters. So this was the first time hed seen her effectively use her strength against a monster like this.

She came close to him in an instant and grabbed him by the collar.

Listen, crown prince. Have you ever been beaten by anyone in your life?!

Arthdal frowned at Yuannas strange question in the midst of this.

You call that a question?

Oh my, then this must be your first experience.

What?!

Arthdal could not ask any further. It was because the orangutan monster behind Yuanna was getting closer.

It followed Yuanna, stomping on the monsters and brandishing its mighty fist at them.

Yuanna, who was holding Arthdals collar, bent down quickly, and as a result, Arthdal was immediately hit by the orangutans fist and sent flying.

What the fuuuuuxk!!!

The blow was so strong that his bones seemed to break. It was the first time in his life that he cursed so much.

He was thrown straight out of the swamp and landed on flat ground.

He was suddenly attacked by an orangutan monster and unexpectedly came out of the swamp.

Had he been hit incorrectly, he might have died instantly. It was a very reckless act, but in the end, the Saintess saved his life again.

By the way, its her whos in trouble, not him.

The monster kept chasing Yuanna as she continued to run stomping on monsters that were half-submerged in the swamp. It was so dangerous enough to worry she might get bitten by the monster at any moment.

Ignoring his body which was still in pain from being thrown far away, Arthdal looked at Yuanna who was running from afar with a worried look.

The moment the flat ground was right in front of her, the monster caught her without fail.

Hey, watch out!

She fell into the swamp with the huge orangutan monster. She tried to swim out with her head sticking out, but she completely disappeared as if she was caught again by the monster that was now in the swamp.

Hey, what the hell could it be no, no, it cant be

Arthdal stared blankly at the place where Yuanna had disappeared with a look of disbelief.

On the other side of the muddy and still swamp, monsters are roaring loudly.

Just in time, the surface of the swamp suddenly stirred, and it wasnt long before something jumped to the surface.

As if it had been beaten and bounced off something, it was thrown right in front of Arthdal.

Thats a human, no, thats Yuanna to be exact.

Covered in mud, green algae, and the blood of monsters, Yuanna groaned softly as she raised her body.

Are you okay?!

Hearing Arthdals worried shout, Yuanna smiled at him.

She took something out of her pocket. Its something square and as small as a finger that looks hard.

Arthdal had seen Margaret pack something similar into her bag at the cabin on the South Island.

Yuanna wiped the mud from her face with her hand and took a deep breath. As soon as she opened the lid of that square thing, a fire started.

Arthdal flinched. Where did you get that magic tool from

I picked this up this morning. I just remembered one time an Unnie[1]I know taught me how to use it.

[1]Older sister.

An Unnie you know? Those are obscure words. Obviously, when Margaret brought something similar, she didnt seem to know what it was

Something like madness flashed in Yuannas green eyes. With a face that was still a mess, she smiled broadly.

That half-crazy-looking face was a bit terrifying.

Did you know that when water mixes with the blood of a monster, it catches fire easily? asked Yuanna.

It was the same thing he heard from his aide when he led the monster subjugation team. But he couldnt remember exactly, so he just narrowed his brows and shook his head.

Yuanna got up. As Arthdal tried to get up too, he screamed in pain and fell back down. Seems like his bones are indeed broken.

Look at this.

Yuanna grinned and threw a fire toward the swamp.

-blazing.

The fire that was thrown into the swamp which was already full of monster corpses quickly spread throughout the swamp.

Needless to say, the hordes of monsters that had gathered to catch and eat them caught fire all at once.

The roar of monsters ran rampant in the huge burning swamp.

Are you watching this, Jenas? Wait there! Ill be there soon!

Yuanna raised her voice towards the monster dying on fire.

Who the hell is she talking to? Arthdal looked at Yuanna in confusion.

She really looked like a crazy. It was obvious she wasnt thinking normally right now.

Seeing her like that, Arthdal realized. The reason two people with no survival skills were able to survive was that she is crazy.

She somehow changed from the moment Margaret and her group fell into the river.

Since then, she has suddenly changed like a person who suddenly regained her lost memories, and said unknown things like a person who knows something.

He was wondering what the hell was going on, but before that, he had to thank her for saving him first.

But he couldnt get the words out, because his head was spinning from the pain that was surging through him.

His bones are broken and he cant move his body properly. On top of that, since he gave all the fruits he had obtained over the past few days to her, he had only eaten very little, so his head was getting even more dizzy.

He survived, but he thought that it might be better to die. Arthdal groaned in pain as he thought so and slowly lost consciousness.

But it wasnt until much later that he heard about the truth from Yuanna.

The Margaret you know is not Margaret.

Theres another soul in Margaret Rose Flon.

The first time he heard those words from Jenas, Enoch was not surprised. Because he already had a guess.

It seems that you have really become a different person, Young Lady.

Just like someone else.

I have become a very different person. You could say I was born again.

Enoch recalled the conversation he had with Margaret when he first woke up on this island.

Damn it.

Enoch muttered a curse full of self-reproach. Perhaps Margaret had been sending him signals from the start.

She wanted me to recognize her.

Kayden wasnt so surprised either. Although Ruzef and Diego seemed to have different reactions.

All of you were being deceived.

There was no evidence for Jenas words. However, to those who thought that Margaret had changed to the point of being a different person, those words were no different from lighting an ember.

Jenas looked over at the confused people and had a satisfied expression on his face.

Im here to tell you all that.

After he said that, he just disappeared.

Nevertheless, Enoch had no intention of pursuing him. Because his priority was to find Margaret.

Lets find Margaret first.

There was no answer to Enochs words as they were still stunned. Even Kayden.

Enoch sighed. Everyone, come to your senses. The wizard boy has disappeared.

Then, everyone was surprised and looked up at the tree. Just as Enoch had said, the silver-haired handsome boy on the tree had disappeared.

What the hell is going on here?

Ruzef asked Enoch as he packed his things and struggled to carry the heavy backpack. Kayden, who was watching Ruzef quietly, took the backpack from him and lightly carried it on his shoulder.

I think we should talk about it after finding Margaret.

Kayden looked back at Enoch this time and said, Lets split teams to find Margaret. Because I dont know what that asxhole will do again. The most important thing now is to find Margaret.

Standing with his arms crossed, Enochs indifferent gaze reached Kayden. He nodded in agreement with Kayden and then turned to Diego.

Sir Diego.

Please give me your orders, Your Highness, Diego answered kneeling down.

Go with the Archbishop.

Pardon? But

Diego glanced at Ruzef without a word. But its like the stare you give when you see an untrustworthy colleague. Ruzef, quick to notice, narrowed his brows with a face full of displeasure.

Do you have any objections?

No, Your Highness.

Diego answered Enochs question without hesitation.

Kayden with the backpack on his back said to Enoch, Lets move fast.

After discussing with Diego where and when they would meet again and how to send the signal, Enoch moved with Kayden.

And just when Enoch thought that he had separated some distance from Diego and Ruzef, he turned to Kayden.

You seem to have the same thoughts as me, he said.

Kayden sighed as he ran his hands through his hair. The bunker is the only place I can think about right now.

Whatever the truth is, whatever Margaret is doing in the bunker, we must know first, said Enoch calmly.

Kayden sighed and muttered annoyedly, Isnt that natural? That way you can defend Margaret from others.

Enoch nodded approvingly at him. Its been a while since he agreed with Kayden.

Then lets go to the bunker.

Oh, but the map is with Margaret.

At Kaydens words, Enoch took the lead with an unperturbed face.

Since Ive been on the battlefield for a long time, I am used to looking at the map. I looked at it once and memorized it.

Enochs answer made Kayden relieved.

Thanks to this, they didnt get lost for long and found the entrance to what appeared to be a bunker in half a day. It was hidden among the bushes, so they wandered around the area for a while.

The problem is that someone arrived before them.

At first, they didnt even know it was a door. If the door hadnt been slightly open and there was a small gap, they might have just walked by. It was only then that they found the doorknob on a stone door.

Enoch and Kayden took one look at each others faces, then opened the door and went inside.

As soon as they opened the thick stone door, they saw a staircase going right down.

The walls are all made of solid stone walls. No matter what happened outside, it seemed like it would be safe here.

Slowly descending the stairs, they encountered a mysterious man holding Margaret in his arms.

He is a man with silver hair, red eyes, and a handsome appearance. Unlike Kayden, who has a sharp aura, the man who exudes a languid feeling was calm even when facing them.
