The woman suddenly became short of breath and coughed up a mouthful of blood.
She knelt down on the ground helplessly, and the girl in her arms rolled down in embarrassment.
Although she didn't react at all...but because she was lucky enough, the attack didn't hurt the girl in her arms.
For humans, a blow through the heart is enough to take away their lives in an instant. But for the Children of the Moon, it only causes them to suffer heavy injuries.
However, her heart was fixed, and she could not turn into a bat and escape. She could only stand there and feel the passage of life, which turned into a kind of torture.
"help me……"
She screamed subconsciously.
But the moment her eyes met the girl's, she immediately realized what a stupid thing she had said.
"...Quick...Run..."
She immediately changed her words.
The young man just glanced at her indifferently and ignored her completely.
"Don't do it like this, Miss Vignes," he just told the air. "The tip of the spear is too thick, and it is easy to be blocked. It is also easier to miss the point.
"You should make your shadow thinner, like a needle. Then pierce it into your body and then explode it."
"—Is that so?"
Along with the hoarse and deep voice, countless thin line-like shadows penetrated the woman's body from all directions.
Then, they suddenly expanded inside the body—sharp blades like transparent glass shards pierced out of the body.
She wanted to scream, but she couldn't because there was also a sharp blade piercing her throat, blocking all sounds.
She just kept kneeling on the ground with her head held high, and countless shadow blades sprouted from all over her body. It looked like some kind of artwork or some kind of potted plant.
"No, if it is slightly thicker, it will be like a sharp needle. If it is too thin, it will easily become fragile."
The young man is still giving pointers.
Shadow Demon, on the other hand, humbly accepted the guidance: "I understand."
The next moment, the new shadow needle penetrated the woman's body again, and then stabbed out the sharp blade: "Is that so?"
"Ah, that's almost it."
The woman's blood continued to flow and accumulated in a shallow pool under her body.
Even so, she still did not die easily, but her body became pale at a speed visible to the naked eye. It was not the kind of bluish white that humans experience when they are anemic, but a colorless white like a stone statue.
Until the blood was completely drained, she was completely transformed into a gray-white sculpture with pain and despair written on her face.
The young man knocked lightly on the sculpture as if knocking on a door. It collapsed and turned into dust.
Only then did the young man look back at the girl with interest: "Aren't you going to run away?"
"You can't escape. This is the Shadow Demon. I only have the second level now. It would be too insulting to the Shadow Demon to try to escape."
The girl shrugged and showed a cute smile: "Hello, Miss Alai. I am Ban - can we cooperate?"
This isn't just saying hello.
She is trying to use a special way to win - to reveal the identities of everyone left in the end game.
And this young man with the shadow demon must be Miss "Alai" who has transcended the path.
But after the words were spoken, the settlement was not completed.
This made Ban's heart sink.
In other words, is anyone else still alive...
"You can convince me in three sentences."
The young man smiled and replied in a low voice.
"You are very talented, but I am sure that you are not among the Rosicrucians, but I can introduce you..."
"——Two more sentences."
The young man interrupted the ban.
The ban did not feel unhappy at being interrupted, nor did it have any lag, but switched to another topic very naturally: "I didn't see anyone else here, maybe they are still alive, or they haven't escaped yet.
There are only two of us left."
"So?" the young man asked.
"If you kill me, maybe you will fail."
Ban replied seriously: "Because..."
At this moment, a sarcastic smile flashed across the young man's face.
Ban's heart skipped a beat and he realized that he had said the wrong thing.
Is it Mr. Gray? Does Miss Alai believe that Mr. Gray must still be alive?
But……
Why?
She was sure that Alai had not seen anyone else. In the lounge, Ban did not see anyone suspected of being Hui either...
So that’s it, are you adapting to the path? It has been quietly integrated into your own identity.
Then she may have been in contact with Miss Allais.
——No, maybe that earth-bound spirit was released by her!
Ban thought quickly in his mind and realized something.
The Shadow Demon is not that invincible to the Children of the Moon - it can even be said that the Children of the Moon are not very afraid of the Shadow Demon.
Because the Shadow Demon lacks the lethality of light and fire that are most feared by the Son of the Moon. The corrosive effect caused by shadow attribute damage is ineffective on the Son of the Moon, and can only be slowly killed by physical means such as bloodletting. The Son of the Moon's high-speed maneuverability is very
It’s easy to kill Shadow Demon’s host…
So that's why the Earthbound Spirits were summoned to prevent the Children of the Moon from gathering together!
The young demon scholar who has contracted with the shadow demon at the second level, and the adapted path extraordinary who can control the earthbound spirit and is good at using various illusions... What a terrifying combination of genius killers this is!
Ban felt a chill in his heart. But then he felt happy again.
She deeply realized that this was no longer a matter of the promotion ceremony.
If this kind of talent can be recruited, then even if it fails this time, it will be considered a reward——
After all, her main path does not want to be promoted to the sixth energy level, it is too dangerous. The negative impact of soul damage usually only affects the fourth and fifth levels, while the second path to the fourth energy level is almost enough.
Already...
From this perspective, she can actually accept death.
Ban's thoughts flashed through his mind, but in reality it only lasted a moment.
She immediately shouted: "Wait a minute, don't kill me, I have something important to say!
"Leipzig's Leipzig Opera House! Say to the manager 'I want to meet the male singer who performed here last month' and the manager will say 'Sorry, we don't have his contact details' and you just say 'He knows me'
Yeah, we were friends at the club'. He'll give you my contact details -"
"Are you done?"
The young man asked rhetorically.
The girl showed a harmless and friendly smile: "You can go back and ask, I am the Count of Leipzig. My reputation is quite good in all circles, I am very rich and willing to donate to others... Of course, if you are willing to sell to
If I have a promotion spot, I can also give you a very generous reward, as long as you don't kill me..."
Before she finished speaking, her body was pierced by a shadow.
First, one pierced through her heart - followed by countless shadow blades, directly piercing her into a sea urchin.
The ban immediately lost its life.
But when she lost consciousness, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally said everything that needs to be said...
Watching the girl die in front of her eyes, Lily thought for a while.
——Anyway, let’s report to the young master after we get out.
"Are you going to continue hunting?"
Lily asked the younger version of Miss Shadow Demon: "Now is the time of chaos."
"of course yes."
Shadow Demon said bitterly.
Lily's shadow expanded and twisted violently, with jagged teeth, tentacles, and blades rising and falling from it.
Shadow Demon roared as low as a lion: "I want to kill all these monsters——
"——And, most importantly.
"Just kill the monster who stole my name of 'Bayard'!"
At this moment, in the underground ritual room used to communicate with the outside world.
Bayard and Awas were staying there.
Bayard sat on the only seat in the ceremonial array, and Aiwass sat on top of her. It looked like Bayard was holding a doll.
And everywhere in the room, white, snow-like ashes were scattered all around.
Director Cornelius was standing at the door with an embarrassed look on his face, confronting the smiling Bayard.
"Miss Bayard, what do you mean?"
"it means……"
Bayard chuckled: "I'm curious, do you just like coming over one by one to check on the situation?"
