Chapter 62: Do I Have to Tell You If Little Elysia Has a Hemorrhoid on Her Butt?
On the other side, after finally breaking through the tide of countless monsters and charging into the Fragmentum, the densely packed Fragmentum creatures that had been all around them had, for some reason, all disappeared.
What lay before Bronya and the others was a ruin filled with strangeness and absurdity. Judging from the architectural debris scattered everywhere, this place had likely once been part of Belobog hundreds of years ago. However, after being completely devoured by the Fragmentum, it had utterly lost its former glory.
"This is... the Fragmentum Jomper mentioned?" Seele frowned as she surveyed their surroundings. Dan Heng, standing nearby, offered an objective assessment: "The erosion within Belobog is nothing compared to this."
For Dan Heng, who had undertaken numerous Trailblazing journeys, fighting within Fragmentums was completely routine. Yet, few Fragmentums were like this one, where dull crystals resembling withered branches were abruptly embedded almost everywhere, their danger announced to all by the golden impurities slowly flowing within.
This was likely a sign of some other dimension severely affecting real space. Even Dan Heng had never seen anything like it.
After all, hardly any world could endure for seven hundred years under the disaster brought by a Stellaron and the pressure of the Antimatter Legion like Jarilo-VI had... Most worlds where a Stellaron appeared would cease to transmit any messages after a few decades.
"I say... don't you guys think this place is really weird? It feels like... it feels like we're being watched by many pairs of eyes?"
March 7th wasn't the only one with this feeling. After hearing her words, Seele also described it: "Indeed, this place gives me goosebumps, it's uncomfortable. It feels like there are bugs crawling under my skin."
This might not be far from the truth. After all, the spatial dimension where the Fragmentum existed was extremely unstable. It was entirely possible that some demon from another dimension was staring at these ignorant humans.
"Right now, we have no guide, nor any detection method that directly points to the Stellaron—we can only proceed with caution."
Only Dan Heng among the group hadn't strayed from the main topic. Crossing his arms, he analyzed carefully: "But there's no need for pessimism either. The heavier the Fragmentum's pollution, the closer we are to its source..."
"Who said you have no guide? Didn't I rush over here? Do you know how much I paid to find you guys?"
A sixth voice suddenly came from the five-person team. Everyone looked around left and right before finally turning their heads and looking down to discover Little Elysia standing behind them at some point, chattering away about her glorious deeds: "Actually, I'm not afraid to tell you secretly. As a savior who once saved the world, finding the location of a Stellaron is as easy as eating and drinking for me!"
"Uh... putting aside those words that don't sound very believable for now, why are you in this place?!"
March 7th's mind was currently extremely unbalanced. Their group had clearly gone through great effort to carve a path through the surging tide of monsters, so why did this person just poof appear here all of a sudden?
Why?! If you have such a convenient ability, why didn't you say so earlier??!
"I have a very powerful parent, isn't that just natural?" Little Elysia gave March 7th a very justified look of disdain.
"This, you, I..."
March 7th was immediately choked up and couldn't get a word out. She tried very hard to find some fact to refute this, but in the end could only weakly complain about why her own Uncle Welt was so unhelpful.
Bronya and Seele, who didn't know Little Elysia at all, looked at each other. Upon realizing that the parent Little Elysia mentioned seemed to be Kevin, the same thought popped into their minds simultaneously—Could this be Mr. Kevin's (that guy's) daughter? But why doesn't she look very much like him?
"Alright, alright, stop dawdling here. The other people of this world are still waiting for news of our success. How can we, as saviors, remain stagnant here?"
"I know a shortcut that can lead us to the Stellaron. Just follow behind me!"
The childish Little Elysia quickly immersed herself in her role and immediately strode forward to take the lead, heading towards the shortcut she mentioned through the labyrinthine ruins.
March 7th, standing at the back, stared intently at Little Elysia's back and suddenly leaned close to Stelle's ear to whisper: "Don't you have a feeling that Little Elysia's walking posture seems a bit strange?"
"Where... is it?"
Hearing March 7th's reminder, Stelle also stared hard at Little Elysia's back for a long time but couldn't see anything except for the fact that she was indeed very short.
"There definitely is!"
March 7th immediately nodded her head and said with great certainty: "A few days ago when my butt hurt and I didn't want others to notice, that's exactly how I walked!"
But why would that be? Could children also get hemorrhoids on their butts?
Uncontrollable doubt arose in March 7th's heart.
"Uh..."
This unexpected answer inevitably caused Stelle's expression to falter slightly. She even saw Little Elysia, walking at the front, hesitate for a step before continuing forward as if nothing had happened.
Life isn't easy for anyone... Stelle couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
The group followed Little Elysia's footsteps deeper into this Fragmentum. Along the way, they truly encountered no trouble at all. Despite being such a vast Fragmentum, it was surprisingly devoid of even half a Fragmentum creature.
The only thing that could be considered troublesome was probably that omnipresent feeling of being watched. It prevented one's spirit from relaxing no matter what, forcing one to remain passively in a state of mental tension.
If this continued for a long time while finding nothing in this maze-like Fragmentum, anyone would probably go crazy, right?
Fortunately, perseverance pays off. After about a few more minutes, they finally made a discovery—
"Look! Isn't that person over there that so-called 'Supreme Guardian'?!" March 7th suddenly shouted, pointing at a figure in the distance walking towards higher ground.
"...Mother?!"
Bronya's emotions were even more intense than March 7th's. She immediately quickened her pace to chase after them. Unfortunately, the final result was somewhat disappointing.
