He originally thought that Cassandra was just transformed into an ordinary undead by his demon blood, but when he saw that Cassandra displayed the same frost magic power as himself, he realized that
Things are not that simple.
Although he can now feel that the magic power in Cassandra is still very weak, but it has the power of darkness and frost. What is this other than a lich?
It's strange. Isn't it said that undead creatures like lich are transformed by wizards, shamans, and sorcerers through dark rituals? Why can my own demon blood also achieve this effect?
For a moment, Roy's mind was wide open and he couldn't help but think of a question. Although the legend was like this, it was impossible for the first lich in the world of the undead to be transformed from a ritual? At that time, the ritual was afraid
It hasn't been invented yet, so how did the first lich come into being? Could it be that it was transformed by a frost demon?
It has to be said that Roy's guess is very close to the truth. In fact, it is indeed the case. Even now, one of the indispensable items in evil rituals for those who want to transform into a lich is the blood of the frost demon.
!
If we go back to the origin of the world, the undead are undead, and there are not so many weird classifications. However, with the intervention of demons, more branches of undead creatures have appeared. Therefore, the connection between the undead and demons,
Far closer than imagined...
But the fun thing is that although demon blood can create undead with special abilities, demons naturally hate the undead!
The reason is also very simple, because the undead are soulless existences, and demons hate all soulless species!
Now, Cassandra's situation is very special. Generally speaking, the lich transformed through the ritual will place his soul in the phylactery. Once the phylactery is destroyed, the lich will be completely dead, but Kassandra
However, Sandra offered her soul as a sacrifice to Roy, and Roy was a frost demon, causing Cassandra to eventually become a lich whose soul was held in Roy's hand.
This situation, how should I put it, is relatively rare. After all, even if the frost demon can use his own demon blood to create a lich, not every lich will sacrifice his soul to the frost demon.
Demons generally cannot control the creatures they create, because as long as the other party still has free will, it is difficult to be truly enslaved.
After clarifying these relationships in his mind, Roy was certainly surprised, but he didn't show it on his face.
Cassandra herself, on the other hand, when she recalled the misery and past she had suffered, strong hatred once again occupied her thoughts. Even though she knew Roy was a devil, she was no longer afraid.
She had no relevant knowledge and didn't understand what a lich was, but she believed that she had inherited Roy's demonic bloodline, so she calmly called Roy: "Father!"
However, this title made Roy a little confused. Why would he like to be a father!?
So he quickly waved his hands and said, "Just call the master!"
"Yes, Master!" Cassandra was well-behaved and immediately changed her tune.
"My name is Osiris! A demon from the abyss world!" Roy said: "You drowned in the sea, but your soul fell into the abyss world because of the obsession with hatred. I happened to get it. According to the laws of the abyss world
, your soul was accepted by me as a sacrifice. At the same time, I also signed a devil's contract with you, and then I came to your world. Now, let's talk about your situation. What kind of cruel encounter it was.
Will you have such a strong hatred and obsession?"
Hearing this question, the light in Cassandra's empty eye sockets seemed to become brighter. She said in a voice with strong hatred: "Yes, Master, I... come from... Actually, I also
I don’t know where the remote village in my hometown is located. I was just an ordinary country girl..."
"My father was a drunkard, a gambler, and a thug! Dirty, sloppy, and vicious! Every time he drank, he only wanted to take out his anger on my mother and me. He broke my hand with a wooden stick, and he also once
I burned my mother with boiling water, but my mother and I still endured it. However, what I didn't expect was that this situation continued year after year, and it finally became more and more serious. Just three years ago,
After he lost all his money gambling again, he even planned to sell his mother to the creditors and ask her to use her body to beat him to repay the gambling debt. But that time, his mother couldn't bear it anymore, so she fought back and chopped him with the only kitchen knife in the house.
Father..."
"My father ran away. I originally thought that my mother and I could finally escape this nightmare. However, what I didn't expect was that three days later, my father limped back, and with him were people from the church...
…”
"I found out later that after my father escaped, he saw a notice from the church about reporting and wanted witches. In order to get the reward, he actually framed my mother as a witch and brought people from the church to arrest her... Then
One day, my mother cried and screamed desperately, but the church people did not give her a chance to defend herself, and still took her away..."
"My mother was burned alive on the cross that day, but my father...he came back drunk in the tavern that night with the ten shilling bounty he got for falsely accusing his wife...
"
At this point, Cassandra raised her head and said to Roy: "Isn't it ridiculous, Master? The mother who gave birth to me and raised me is only worth ten shillings in the end..."
Roy didn't speak, just listened quietly...
"The drunk father beat me again indiscriminately after he came back. After getting the benefit, when he finally fell asleep, he actually muttered something and planned to report me as a witch... I know him
I will definitely do this, the church people will regard me as the bloodline left by the witch, and they will burn me to death!"
"I was scared and afraid, so I ran away that night!" Cassandra gritted her teeth and said: "Looking back now, I still hate myself for being so timid. I should have taken advantage of him while he was sleeping to kill me.
He was killed..."
"After escaping, I wandered aimlessly, begging, and fighting for food with wild dogs. I wanted to leave the place that I hated, so in the end, I secretly escaped to a sea ship!" Cassandra said
: "I originally wanted to hide in the cabin and follow the ship to a place where no one knew me. However, in the end, I was too hungry and was discovered by people on the ship when I went to steal something to eat.
"
"When they found me, the people on the ship didn't do anything to me. Instead, they gave me something to eat. I thought I had met a good person!" Kassandra said mockingly: "But later I found out
, this ship turned out to be a slave ship, and there were many men and women imprisoned in the bottom of that ship. They kept me here because they wanted to sell me as a slave!"
"When I overheard this situation, I wanted to run away, but on the vast sea, I couldn't escape at all. Instead, I was discovered by the people on the boat, so they showed their ferocious faces and beat me up.
, tied him up and threw him into the cabin for guarding."
"In desperation, like other slaves in the cabin, I prayed to the gods, hoping that someone would come to rescue us. Even though people who hated the church persecuted my mother, but in desperation, I
I still prayed to the Lord... However, the funny thing is that the angel who rescued us did not appear, but a group of cruel pirates came! They ransacked the slave ship, and the slaves in the cabin became the target of their venting. I still
I still remember their wild laughter and the screams of those women... At that time, a scar-faced pirate wanted to force me to submit. I was unwilling to be humiliated like this, so I chose to resist. During the struggle, I bit off
As a result, this group of pirates became so angry that they tied me up, gouged out my eyes, cut off my right breast, and finally threw me into the sea..."
"When the sea water poured into my mouth, I realized that I was going to die. I didn't understand what I had done wrong to suffer such misfortune. I hated everyone who inflicted suffering on me. I
My father, those slave traders, and those pirates, I cursed them. When the proud gods looked down upon me, a humble little girl, I swore that I would make those guys pay even with the power of the devil.
cost!"
As if to vent, after Cassandra narrated her experience, there was silence for a long time. Only the floating island was shaken by the big waves in the sea, and the roar of lightning and thunder came, as if everything was gone.
Complaining about Cassandra.
Roy was silent for a long time. To be honest, even Roy was shocked by Cassandra's experience.
Yes, she is a little girl, what did she do wrong? To deserve her to receive the most unfortunate treatment in the world?
From this, Roy thought about what he, the devil, represents?
Although the world says that the devil is the representative of evil, the incarnation of killing and chaos, the greatest sin! The enemy of God! But why are there always people like Cassandra in history willing to fall into the abyss of hell?
What about seeking help from the devil?
Because God is proud, He always likes to test people. When He does not accept you or respond to your request, it is not His problem, but because you... are not sincere!
As for demons, there are more direct ones...
Suddenly, Roy felt that he seemed to understand the meaning of the existence of creatures like demons.
He stood up, walked in front of Cassandra, and opened his demon wings. With the input of magic power, the strange demon symbols on his demon wings also glowed with blue light, creating a powerful fear effect.
It spread out, and even the undead creature Cassandra could sense it.
"Come with me Cassandra!" Roy stretched out his hand to Cassandra and said: "The meaning of our abyss demons' existence is that when the world forgets justice and fairness, we stand up to remind them and let them understand.
