Garr's hostility toward Orstide was quite obvious, and he did not restrain himself just because Orstide was now standing next to Roya.
Although he was very pleased to know that Roya had defeated Orstide, he also felt a restless urge to try his luck.
When he was young, he was placed in the hands of the Dragon God, a scene that Gar could never forget in his entire life.
It is unknown when it began, but defeating the dragon god Orstide became Gal's lifelong ambition.
Previously, there was neither the opportunity nor the time to search for the Dragon God, and even if he had found it, Gar felt that he would most likely be no match for the Dragon God.
However, with Orstide right in front of him, Gal's heart, which had been frozen for many years, was stirred once again.
In the end, Garr could not suppress the urge in his heart and challenged Orstide.
To Garr's surprise, Orstide accepted it quite calmly this time.
Then there is no more then.
Alsterd finished Gar off with a single chop to the neck.
The two are on completely different levels; the gap between them is too vast. A lower-ranking powerhouse challenging a higher-ranking powerhouse will almost always result in an instant kill.
This is something that is not in any suspense whatsoever.
After another defeat, even Gar was depressed for a while. When the water god saw Gar's humiliation, he couldn't help but tease him a bit.
As a result, Garr was furious and found an excuse to spar with the water god, and beat the water god up again.
However, it was only at this point that everyone realized that Orstide was actually a very easy person to talk to.
Although he appears very cold and you might feel a sense of dread when talking to him, upon closer inspection, the Dragon God Orstide is actually a very easy person to talk to.
Of course, this only applies if people like Gar don't block Alster's path. In fact, anyone who dares to stand in Alster's way is basically eliminated.
For some reason, with Roya's presence, Orstide's tense mind relaxed at this moment.
Almost everyone in the country feared him, even Gar, who had been beaten up, was afraid of him. Because of this fear, he always spoke hesitantly.
Moreover, for many people, besides fear, there is actually more disgust.
That kind of disgust that comes from the bottom of one's heart, disgust without any disguise.
Someone who has been disliked by others, and has been alone from the beginning until now, how could they possibly feel good?
Even though Alsterd was used to this kind of thing, it would always be a good thing to have a real companion.
And now, this companion has appeared beside Orstide.
Luo Ya, a mysterious figure, seems to have sprung from a stone.
In the hundreds of previous reincarnations, Orstide had never encountered such a 'person'.
He is very strong, almost excessively so, and also very talented. According to him, he is only fifteen or sixteen years old.
Is it possible for a teenager of this age to do this much?
Alsterd has repeatedly remarked that there are truly many extraordinary talents in this world.
At this age, in the dragon race, it would probably be considered as having just hatched not long ago.
However, it is simply unbelievable that Roya has been able to achieve this level at such a young age.
Of course, the most important thing is not that, but the boy's unique attitude towards him.
Roya was not afraid of him and seemed to genuinely treat him as a friend.
This was a feeling that Alsterd had never experienced before.
When they occasionally bump into each other, the boy will greet them warmly and ask if they have eaten yet, suggesting that they come to his place for a bite if they haven't.
In his spare time, Roya would often pull Orstide aside and chat about all sorts of random things.
The conversation covered a wide range of topics, including solutions for gods and humans, as well as some questions about magic.
These were naturally no difficult tasks for Orstide, and he was happy to resolve the doubts in other people's minds.
After spending some time together, Alsterd found that this kind of life was actually quite good.
There is someone who is never afraid of him, with whom he can have normal conversations, and they also share a common enemy.
Chapter 373 Countermeasures (4k)
Rather than becoming each other's subordinates, it would be more accurate to say that the two became partners.
There's no need to worry about potential dangers on the road, no need to worry about food being poisoned, no need to worry about someone suddenly jumping out and challenging you to a duel, and no need to worry about wild animals attacking you while you're asleep.
This was a lifestyle that Alster had never experienced before.
My tense mind found a moment of peace at that moment.
The curse he carried had not yet disappeared, and Alsterd was still hated and feared by everyone.
But whenever the boy could smile and say a few words to him, chatting about trivial matters, Alsterd would feel a strange sensation.
It feels awkward, but it seems pretty good.
A life I've never experienced, an ending I've never faced—if things continue like this, it seems pretty good.
The well remained calm and undisturbed, and nothing unexpected happened.
After February, Roya took some time to travel to the territory of Fetoa with Orstide.
This winter, the snow was particularly heavy, but fortunately, Ariel is now the emperor, and she has arranged some disaster relief measures. If it were the old emperor, the lives and deaths of the people would have been none of his concern.
However, this world has magic and magical power, so even ordinary people, with the corresponding living supplies, should have no problem getting through this winter.
Of course, no matter what world you're in, there will always be people who freeze to death; there's nothing you can do about it.
The management of the Fitoa territory is not bad. Alice's father, the one with the squinty eyes, although he gives Roya a very sinister feeling and looks like a smiling tiger, is indeed good at managing the territory.
Although he has been promoted and given a higher rank, he has not given up his original territory and still maintains a high level of attention to it.
Although the heavy snowfall caused a temporary economic standstill and brought many inconveniences, life cannot stop because of this snow.
When Roya and Orstide arrived in this territory, which was neither too big nor too small, there were still quite a few people around.
When these people saw Orstide, they would hurriedly quicken their pace and try to avoid the two of them.
Orstide was used to this, and walked at the front expressionlessly. His rough white skin swayed in the cold wind. Orstide had a sour face and walked forward on his own.
Seeing this, Luo Ya shook his head helplessly.
The two hadn't walked far when the crowd dispersed on their own.
The streets, which were once bustling with people, have now become completely deserted.
At that moment, both of them stopped in their tracks, because they both saw a black magic ball gathering in the sky at the very top.
The black sphere continued to compress, emanating an indescribable and terrifying energy fluctuation.
Even Alsterd frowned at this fluctuation; the magic sphere was constantly compressing and absorbing the magic power of nature.
Orstide said, "It's terrifying magic. I don't know what it is. If it continues to be allowed to run rampant, and something happens to it, I'm afraid no one in this region will survive."
As we all know, magic is the fuel for magic; often, the strength of magic depends entirely on the amount of magic infused into it.
Even a fireball spell will undergo a qualitative change if infused with Emperor-level or higher magic power. If the caster has excellent control over magic power, it is not impossible for the single-target power to reach Emperor-level lethality.
So, although it's unclear why such black magic appeared in mid-air.
But if any problems arise, those problems will inevitably be devastating to the people in this town.
If the spell cast is an offensive type of magic, then it is not impossible for the territory of Fetoa to be annihilated in an instant.
Roya and Orstide both knew this, and Roya nodded slightly, agreeing with Orstide's words. But right now, they were thinking about how to deal with this troublesome matter.
The expansion trend of the Magic Ball seems to have become even more intense.
Roya asked directly, "Orstide, do you have any ideas on how to deal with it?"
Orstide shook his head, a rare look of helplessness appearing on his usually stern face. He said frankly, "I don't know what kind of magic it is, or what kind of natural disaster it is. I don't have a good way to deal with it."
Roya nodded, accepting Orstide's explanation.
However, since we cannot stop the opponent from unleashing their power, there is only one option left.
That means relocating all the people here.
If you can't solve the problem, then minimize the loss.
The reason why the relocation event caused such great losses is mainly because the event itself is unpredictable.
No one could have imagined that they would be randomly teleported to any corner of this continent.
Because there were no countermeasures and the event happened so suddenly, most people died; it was considered lucky if two or three out of ten people survived.
But that's all.
As a time traveler, Luo Ya couldn't be certain when the transfer event would occur, but as long as he knew it would happen, he would take corresponding measures, and the harm caused by it wouldn't be as great as imagined.
Roya's solution was simple: evacuation.
Let's temporarily evacuate these people and clear out a city. Although doing so will cause a lot of trouble, at least their lives will be saved.
All destabilizing factors have been eliminated.
Paul, Senis, and their two younger sisters would no longer have to go through so many hardships, and Alice's family would not have died tragically because of it.
