The cold wind howled on the ice field, and there was silence. It seemed that because of the arrival of Roy, the frost demon lord, the wind and snow here became more intense.
In such an extreme cold, even demons did not dare to go out easily and could only huddle in Frostfire City, the only warm zone.
However, in the nearest Frostfire City, there are only a few scattered demons in twos and threes that occasionally appear in the city. The lively scene in the past has completely disappeared recently.
Not only are most of the demons gone, but Roy, the lord of Frostfire City, is also not in the city now...
In the Devil's Palace where Roy's statue stands, Fat Tiger lies on the ground, sleeping with three heads resting on his forelimbs. His snoring echoes rhythmically in the hall, and his huge body guards here like a hill.
In his sleep, Fat Tiger didn't know what he was dreaming about. He made whining sounds from time to time, looking aggrieved, and hummed from time to time, as if he was complaining to Roy, the owner, for not taking him out to play with him.
Now it can only pass the time by sleeping every day.
As he fell asleep, Fat Tiger suddenly felt his nose was a little itchy on the left side of his head and couldn't help but sneeze.
Originally, this was nothing. After sneezing, Fat Tiger still did not wake up, but continued to sleep. But then, the noses of the middle head and the right head also became itchy at the same time, and the three heads sneezed one after another.
.
The fat tiger finally woke up because he heard a burst of laughter. When he opened his eyes, he found a little man holding a long stick and trying to poke his nostrils!
This little man has red hair, which is long and messy and draped down to his shoulders. His shape is quite wild, and his height is less than one meter. In front of Fat Tiger's huge body,
, just like a little kid.
As soon as he saw this familiar hair color, Fat Tiger felt a little helpless. He could only stare at the child with three heads with fierce eyes.
However, facing Fat Tiger's fierce eyes, the child was not afraid at all. He dropped the stick in his hand, giggled and climbed up Fat Tiger's leg. As he climbed, he said: "Fat Tiger, Fat Tiger, don't sleep.
Let’s go out and play!”
Fat Tiger snorted twice, indicating that he didn't want to go, but the child didn't care. He climbed up from Fat Tiger's legs to Fat Tiger's back with all his hands and feet, and then lay on the head in the middle of Fat Tiger, lowering his head.
Lai said to Fat Tiger: "Let's go, let's go for a run and see if my adoptive father and Julie's mother are coming back!"
Before Fat Tiger could say anything, suddenly a voice came from far away: "Silas! Silas? Where are you?"
As soon as he heard this voice, the child's face suddenly changed, and he said anxiously to Fat Tiger: "Quick! It's Cassandra's mother! If she catches us, we won't be able to leave!"
While talking, he also slapped Fat Hu on the head with his small hands. Fat Hu had no choice but to get up and carry him out of the hall.
After arriving outside, Fat Tiger spread his wings and flew out of Frostfire City, taking the child into the ice field. Facing the howling cold wind, the child not only was not afraid, but instead shouted excitedly, and the silent ice field echoed with his voice.
A childish voice.
Yes, this child is Silas. Eight years have passed, and the toddler who could only crawl around in front of Roy has successfully grown into... a naughty kid...
As a forbidden son and a half-demon, Silas is only nine years old, but he has a very strong body. The low temperature of dozens of degrees below zero is not that scary to him. Sitting on Fat Tiger's forehead,
Silas held the hair on Fat Tiger's forehead tightly with one hand to prevent himself from falling, while letting the cold wind blow his face and raise his wild red hair.
This red hair was naturally inherited from his biological mother Isabel, and perhaps because of living in the abyss world for a long time, Silas now looks more like a demon than a human being, and the skin all over his body is covered with red hair.
A dark red color, with scattered thick cuticles on his arms and limbs. His two eyes are also pure black, except for the iris of the pupil, which is a circle of blood red, and his brow bone follows
Over the years, it has gradually opened up and become more prominent. If nothing else happens, his brow bone may develop into the shape of a devil's horn in the future.
Of course, Silas actually also has his human form, but to avoid unnecessary trouble, Silas has been taught by Cassandra to keep him in this demon form.
But even with this appearance that looks like both a demon and a human being, the demons summoned by Roy in Frostfire City can naturally see that, so they are very unfriendly to Silas, and they are just worried about Roy.
As a lord, they did not dare to take action against Silas, but they kept away from and rejected Silas, so that in such a large Frostfire City, the only playmates Silas could find were Fat Tiger and Dahei.
It's just that Dahei has been hiding underground recently, so Fat Tiger is the only one who is unlucky. Silas is now the age of a naughty child, and playing with such a naughty child is not an easy task.
I don’t know how many times I have been harassed by Silas.
"Fat Tiger, it's been almost half a year since my adoptive father went out to fight, right?" Lying on Fat Tiger's head, Silas muttered to himself: "If I had known that he would be out for so long, I should have begged him to take him with me.
I went together..."
Fat Tiger flew in the air and howled. Silas understood what he meant and said: "I know my adoptive father will not allow it, but I won't cause him any trouble. I will fight with him."
Isn’t it enough to just watch quietly on the sidelines?”
Fat Tiger responded twice more, and Silas was a little frustrated when he heard it, and said: "Okay, you're right, Cassandra's mother will be worried..."
Among all people, the relationship between Silas and Cassandra is the deepest. When Isabel, a human, was dying, Cassandra was waiting beside her. It was Cassandra who personally killed Seras.
Silas brought him back, so Cassandra's emotional investment in Silas was also extraordinary.
Some people may say, isn't Cassandra a lich? Don't creatures like lich always harbor feelings of hatred towards living people?
It is true that undead creatures like lich have a strong hatred for the living, but don't forget that Cassandra was also a woman when she was alive. After becoming a lich, her memories of her life were also revived. Although she hated her
Her father, but at the same time she also misses her mother who once protected her. Such memories will not be erased by becoming an undead creature. The moment she saw Silas, she realized that if she didn't do something,
, the misfortune that happened to me may happen again to Silas.
This is also the reason why Cassandra has been worried about Roy's attitude after taking Silas back. Fortunately, the devil Roy is different from other devils. Although he wants to use and observe, Roy still lets Sai
Lars stayed.
Half-demon is a taboo for the demon clan, perhaps due to the concept of blood, or maybe just jealous of the half-demon's talent. Ordinary demons can be said to be both disgusted and coveted towards half-demon. Their attitude is actually quite contradictory, but when it comes to Roy
Now that the Demon Lord has such a status, such so-called taboos are actually nothing.
Since Roy is considered the murderer of Silas's biological father, Cabelles, and is in a hostile state with Isabel, Roy actually maintains a sense of distance from Silas, but here's the strange thing
, the more there is such a sense of distance, the more Silas wants to get closer to Roy.
This may be because Silas has demon blood. Demons have the instinct to worship the strong, which makes Silas naturally worship Roy, the strongest person he can come into contact with.
To be honest, Roy was a little surprised by the closeness Silas showed, but in the end he acquiesced to Silas calling him his adoptive father.
Roy has already thought about it. He has no intention of hiding the situation. He will tell Silas about his life experience when Silas grows up. How Silas makes his choice then is his business.
Because he calls Roy his adoptive father, Silas calls the two mistresses Julie and Bainiya "mom". Julie's words are better because she has always wanted to have a relationship with Roy.
She was a descendant of Silas, so she readily accepted Silas's title. At the same time, she loved Silas very much and doted on him.
But Bainiya is different. Bainiya still maintains the concept of pure demon blood. Cassandra's more human-oriented parenting method of keeping her children by her side is something she cannot approve of.
She believes that Silas should be placed in the upper world of the abyss, and let Silas, like other demons, fight and fight in a place suitable for his own strength, and grow up in blood and fire. This is the right thing for demons.
way of growth.
After this proposal was first proposed, it was rejected by Roy.
Because Roy knew very well what it would be like to put a taboo son like Silas in the upper world of the abyss. Maybe before Silas could grow up, he would be attacked by countless demons and torn into pieces.
Fragmented...
Silas naturally felt Bainiya's harshness, so among them, Silas was the most difficult to get close to Bainiya...
In short, Silas's growth environment can be said to be very strange.
After flying around the ice field, Silas was finally satisfied. His demon form did not have wings, so he was very envious and longed for the feeling of flying. This is why he often pestered Fat Tiger to come out to play.
Originally, he wanted Fat Tiger to take him to find Rafalo, but recently Rafalo also went out to fight with Roy.
Frostfire City had a conflict with the demon lord of another territory some time ago. The two sides started a war with each other. Roy took away the main combat force. This is also the reason why Frostfire City has been empty recently.
Fat Tiger originally wanted to turn around, but couldn't resist Silas's plea, so he had to take him to the southwest of the ice field. There was a space link leading to another fragmented world. Roy was leading the army at the beginning.
Since leaving here, Silas has been wanting to wait here whenever he has time, wanting to see the return of his adoptive father Roy with his own eyes.
After waiting for more than four hours in the howling cold wind, the space link still looked the same. Silas sighed, patted Fat Tiger on the head with some disappointment, and said: "Let's
Go back!"
But at this moment, Fat Tiger's three heads were sniffing vigorously forward, and then put on a vigilant posture, with his tail raised high, making a "bluff" sound from his mouth, and looking fiercely.
Ahead.
"There are enemies!?" Silas was startled. He raised his head and looked forward. He saw circles of ripples suddenly appearing in the scenery ahead, and then a group of tall figures appeared suddenly and hastily.
It was a group of... blood-covered demons, about seven or eight people in number. Their armors were in tatters, and two demons had broken horns on their heads. They ran forward in a hurry, looking back in horror from time to time.
Looking behind.
After discovering the presence of Fat Tiger, they quickly braked, then quickly held the weapons in their hands and pointed them at Fat Tiger.
Fat Tiger, the Titan Cerberus, has a very strong deterrent effect. These demons looked at Fat Tiger in horror and said with despair: "What's going on? Why are there intercepting enemies here!? Where are we running to?"
