"Darn those Ravens!" Edwin swore ferociously. The sound of his heavy breathing filled the air.

Despite our closeness, his voice sounded muffled, but the word 'Ravens' didn't escape my notice.

I grabbed ahold of Edwin as my desperation and fear increased.

"Listen, I'm going to try and pull your hand away. Even if it's painful, you must endure it."

Edwin embraced me tightly before placing his hand over mine, which was still stuck to the trunk of the guardian tree.

Then, with great force, he tried to forcefully pull my hand away from the trunk.

"Argh!"

Rather than freeing my hand, my shoulder felt dislocated now.

"Ha! How dare you try to claim what's mine when you're already dead?"

Edwin clenched his teeth as he continued carefully trying to pry my hand from the tree.

Suddenly, I heard a sword striking a dull object.

Someone was most likely trying to cut down the guardian tree, but each time they struck the tree, the pain in my chest increased.

"My Lord!"

Then I heard the familiar voice of Beryl, the commander of the knights.

As I struggled to breathe, while kneeling on the ground, I gathered my strength, and turn my head to see a black figure with my blurred vision.

Subsequently, my gaze met a pair of crimson-red eyes that pierced right through my soul.

Within those eyes, was the intent to devour my entire being, which left me feeling paralyzed and weighed down with a heavy object.

"Hel-"

I tried to scream for help, but no words left my mouth.

All I could do was helplessly watch as a crimson-eyed monster advanced toward me with each passing second.

'Help me! Someone, please help me!'

I was trembling in terror, with tears streaming down my cheeks as my impending death slowly approached.

'I want to live! I'm not ready to die!'

"Ed!"

At that moment, a surge of energy came over me. Without hesitation, Edwin's name burst from my lips the moment the crushing weight disappeared.

Then, just in the nick of time, the crimson-eyed monster, that was on the verge of attacking me, collapsed with a 'thud' sound.

Standing behind the creature was Edwin, with a bloody sword in hand.

"How dare you try to touch what's mine?"

His cold, hardened face was fiercer and more frightening than ever before.

In particular, the murderous spirit contained in his blue eyes was so ferocious that it felt as if you would be torn apart just by meeting his gaze.

But ironically, I was flooded with relief at that sight.

"Wait for me. I'll take care of the Ravens and return shortly."

Hearing that, I could only smile faintly.

Unexpectedly, the pain that was causing my heart to pound erratically, seemed to have diminished.

'Does that madman know how to wield magic?'
