The disappeared Helene may be hiding somewhere in the woods, so moving around is a good option.

The only option, then, is to take to the sky.

In addition, the sky above has a wide view and is an unquestionable place to obtain information. To realize that this is a trap, the time to think is obviously not enough.

In other words, Lina was led, she was seduced and took the bait. Lina bit her lip in the air and turned back with all her strength to swing the ax.

The powerful impact endlessly passed through the dense woods, but there was no figure of Hailin there. Instead, the breeze blew by Lina's ears.

"The sound is carried by the wind?"

There was something behind her when she felt attacked. The swung ax was still in the air, still having power left.

Lina gritted her teeth, and her arm muscles made a creaking sound. The ax she was swinging with all her strength moved in the opposite direction along with the remaining strength.

The reaction force is so powerful that the muscle building capacity cannot keep up. A little blood flowed from the arm that exceeded the limit, but Lina turned around without caring.

The swinging ax hit Hailin's right arm, and Hailin's eyes widened completely. Lina couldn't control her injured arm, and the ax slipped from her hand, flying in the air.

However, Lina smiled.

The cut surface and the flying arm, blood spurting out, the decisive victory is right in front of them, the light in the eyes of the fallen Hai Lin dims.

Her white hair swayed in the wind, and her face gradually disappeared from Lina's field of vision. Just like that, when Hailin's face was close to Lina's chest, a slight shock suddenly came from the left chest.

"ah!?"

Taking a closer look, he saw blood pouring from his left chest. Then, the truth gradually emerged. The knife pierced her left chest, her eyes regained their brightness, she glared at Lina, and bit Hai Lin who bit the handle of the knife.

"Using the 'Invisible Man' as a weapon!?"

Severe pain shot through the entire body.

"My partner once said. Victory is the moment when it is easiest for people to let down their guard."

Lina wanted to grab Hailin's face, but Hailin removed her mouth from the handle and nimbly avoided it.

"Once humans lose their vision, they will try to rely on it. But don't worry, you act tough." The knife thrown by the right arm swayed in the wind and fell to Hailin's mouth.

Hai Lin bit the handle and turned around. In an instant, Lina's head danced lightly and quietly in the air.

In the darkness, only a small torch illuminated the place, which was filled with a damp smell. Slippery moss grew on the rock wall, looking grim and terrifying.

In this filthy environment, Lina lay on the ground. Her hands were tied behind her back, preventing her from using magic. And it is said that the collar will explode when the skill is used.

The "interrogators" who imprisoned Lina here explained proudly. At this time, Lina's stomach growled. She hasn't eaten for a long time. The thin cheeks and sunken eyes told of her experiences.

Lina looked at the rocky ground covered in green moss. She stuck out her tongue and licked it, feeling a bitter taste and an unpleasant tingle wash over her. It's really unpalatable. No matter how hungry I am, I can't seem to eat anything harmful.

It looked like he was about to be executed. Although I can never remember that I have done anything bad. It's just that the power is out of control and cannot be controlled. But he was executed as a serious crime.

Fear seems to doom those who are afraid to be ostracized even if they belittle the truth. How ridiculous.

Despite thinking this way, Lina still longed to live. This is a given. It would be terrible if a young girl died right now.

"...Hello"

From the adjacent prison, a being called Lina.

Just looking over, you can see a man sitting cross-legged and tightly bound by chains. Was he always there? In order to preserve her strength, Lina gave up even thinking, so her memory was blurred.

Facing a strange man, Lina was also a little hesitant whether she should speak. Because even the act of speaking requires corresponding physical strength.

"My name is Kamiya. What about you?" The man who called himself Kamiya continued without caring about Lina's thoughts.

"...Lina." Lina responded with the shortest answer. She did not choose to ignore it, at least at that time Lina did not have this option.

"I see, nice to meet you. So, why are you here?" Kamiya asked a sudden question. Lina replied: "I don't know."

"Don't you know? A little girl like you won't be treated like this unless she does something extraordinary, right?"

"......I really do not know."

"Huh?" Kamiya frowned, looking a little confused.

"Did he kill someone?"

"...Yeah. Probably."

"Kill who?"

"...Thieves, dad and mom."

Kamiya narrowed his brows in surprise and said, "Is that all?"

"I don't know. I was attacked, and then I fainted. When I woke up..."

After hearing Lina's narration, Kamiya smiled as if he understood. But Lina was unaware of his reaction and looked up at him with a confused expression.

After Kamiya laughed for a while, he asked again: "Are you a person with skills?"

When Lina heard this, her pupils suddenly dilated.

Kamiya continued with a smile: "When you tried to save your parents from the thieves, your ability went out of control. As a result, you not only killed the thieves, but also your parents. Later, someone called you a sinful person and attacked You, you once again used your ability to lose control in self-defense. That's probably it."

Kamiya hit the mark accurately, albeit a little off, but it surprised Lina.

"W-why?"

Why does he know this?

Lina asked, and Kamiya replied: "I guessed it based on your description."

Kamiya was silent for a moment, and his smile disappeared. Lina stared at him and spoke with trembling lips: "I just wanted to help them. But when I failed, I realized that I was already here."

Her voice trembled, tears streaming from the corners of her eyes. Without her powers, she might have been killed by thieves.

However, if she had no ability from the beginning, she might have a completely different life.

A happier life.

"Why?" Her words gradually leaked out, "Why do I have 'such a thing'?"

Saying this almost weakly, Kamiya looked away slightly and immediately laughed again: "Those who want to know how to fly must first stand up, walk, run, climb, and dance. You cannot skip this process, Only then can you fly."

Lina was surprised by Kamiya's sudden answer. Kamiya turned his gaze to Lina and continued: "These are the words of a certain philosopher."
