Why would a fine wine from the Divine Kingdom appear in such a mountain range?

Thinking this, she recalled many things.

Indeed, I forgot to ask earlier why a centaur heroic spirit would appear here?

"Wait, where exactly is this place!!?"

Herbert saw her realization and smiled meaningfully: "You're asking about this place? It has many names, which one would you like to hear?"

"Misty Mountains, Divine Forbidden Area... And also the remnants of a fallen deity's Divine Kingdom."

!!!

Upon finally realizing where she was, Fremay shuddered all over.

She wasn't an uneducated fool like Valentina; she knew clearly what the term "Misty Mountains" implied.

She only knew she was locked in a certain monastery before, without knowing the specific location, nor had she asked the other prison wardens.

And now, she suddenly realized where exactly she was.

The mist-covered mountains outside the Mist Monastery.

She also understood what she and Herbert had been recklessly doing here... Were we really that brave?

"Wait! Herbert, you said before... you wanted to build your own faction here?"

Herbert's smile grew more radiant, nodding: "Yes, is there a problem?"

Fremay nodded vigorously: "Yes, and it's a big one!"

Herbert laughed heartily and gently squeezed her hand: "Don't worry, trust me, there won't be any problems here."

"This is the most dangerous place, but also the safest."

"Although the Divine Forbidden Area is dangerous, it also means the gods cannot spy on this place."

"As for the threats beyond the gods... rest assured, I have ways to solve all this."

Listening to Herbert's confident assurances, Fremay, though still inwardly anxious, finally chose to trust him.

In any case, trust him first.

The hero I chose shouldn't be that crazy... right?

"Alright, let me put away the Wine of Oblivion."

Herbert poured out the water from his water pouch and then slowly filled it with the Wine of Oblivion.

Although the Wine of Oblivion has strong side effects, making people forget the past, as a legendary level potion, its healing effect is equally remarkable...

The most crucial point is that it is also effective on beings other than heroic spirits!

The effect of forgetting the past is halved, and the healing effect is also halved, but it can still be life-saving in critical moments.

Although Herbert does not need such a healing potion himself, others might.

["Don't worry about the side effects, I have a way to make it only retain the healing effect."]

"That's even better."

Nenasha's guarantee made Herbert sigh in relief, his confidence growing firmer.

["By the way, you can let that little pony drink a little first, her injuries will heal quickly."]

"Hmm? Is it okay to drink directly? Won't she forget previous things?"

I've just managed to win her over, don't make me start all over again!

["No need to worry about that, a heroic spirit of her level would need to drink a large amount of the Wine of Oblivion to forget the past."]

This is quite reasonable.

If the Wine of Oblivion were really that effective, it could completely be used as a means to deal with heroic spirits.

Just by splashing the liquor on the heroic spirit during battle, the opponent would shut down completely, becoming a blank slate — it's obviously unrealistic.

["Not to mention, her memory has just been reset once, now the Wine of Oblivion for her is simply a tasty drink."]

After receiving the assurance, Herbert handed the water pouch filled with liquor to Sofia: "Drink it, it's good for your current injuries."

"But, I feel like drinking it will make me forget a lot of things."

Sofia, although reset at the moment, was not entirely back to an infant state; she still remembered a lot of knowledge, just couldn't recall it all at once.

"As long as your loyalty to me is firm enough, you won't forget."

Herbert smiled, placing the water pouch into her hands: "Come, prove your loyalty to me."

"...Understood."

Sofia paused, then nodded with determination, took the water pouch with both hands, and said firmly: "I will prove my loyalty to you!"

Then, suddenly tilted her head back.

Gulp, gulp!

"Very good, Sofia, you've proven your... hey hey hey, don't drink it all!"

Herbert had a hard time snatching the pouch back from the tipsy Sofia.

Seriously.

What a little glutton!

.

.

Clip-clop, clip-clop.

The sound of horse hooves echoed rhythmically in the mist, hard to imagine someone galloping in such an environment.

And if they saw the scene on horseback, they'd be even more surprised.

A white-haired youth sat on the back of a female centaur, with a mermaid on his back... one could only describe it as a very strange combination.

"How much longer?"

"Don't be impatient, we're almost there... hmm?"

Herbert, in the middle of speaking, suddenly paused, patting Sofia's shoulder to have her stop.

"My lord? Is there something wrong?"

Sitting behind, Fremay poked her head out, puzzled: "Herbert, what's wrong? Did we take a wrong turn?"

"No, the way is right; it's just... something seems off."

Herbert looked at the scorched earth in front of him, at the new buildings emerging from the ground, blinking repeatedly.

Eh!

I really just said it casually before, but something really grew out here!?

"How strange..."

Looking at the unfamiliar figure worshipping the stake, he couldn't help but think:

"How can the land grow buildings and spawn new humans by itself?"

"Am I playing some idle web game?"

"No, I didn't even spend any money..."
