With a wave of his hand, the [high beam mirror] in mid-air automatically dissipated.
"Come in."
A beautiful figure opened the door and walked in carrying something.
-----
As an excellent graduate of Styx Riverside Kindergarten.
A new-generation demon who not only kills people, sets fires, but also conducts biochemical experiments, and is in line with the good virtues of the Abyss.
Orshiga has always understood the principle of being steady and not wasting it!
Although occasionally his thinking would still be involuntarily confused due to the devil's nature, he was generally relatively sane and did not mess up.
However, he occasionally has some troubles, such as right now.
Looking at the somewhat reserved housekeeper Telina in front of her, Orshika tilted her head and asked with some confusion: "Why has your attitude changed so much? Is it because of my identity?"
After Telina hesitated for a moment, she said with a somewhat embarrassed expression: "...it's just a little awkward."
"I have never concealed my own character. You should know that I will not harm you. Compared to many humans, I, the devil, should be a safer existence for you."
He stretched out his hand and wanted to touch her cheek, but Trina quickly dodged it as if she had been pricked by a needle.
"Feel sorry……"
After dodging, Trina lowered her head slightly as she looked at Orshika's hand stretched out into the air.
"nothing."
Taking his hand back, Orshika shrugged his shoulders indifferently.
"I'm going out first..."
"Okay, let's go out."
Watching the other party's leaving figure, Orshika gently lifted the clothes on his upper body, cut a slender opening along his chest with his sharp nails, revealing the heart inside, and gently stretched out his hand to hold the hand that was still there.
beating heart.
With a little effort, he took it off without leaving any blood, and the wound healed automatically.
Squeezing his heart, which was still beating normally, Orshiga touched his chin without changing his expression, and muttered to himself with some doubts: "Why, as a pure-blooded demon, would I produce the body of an ordinary human being?"
Male and female emotions.
Could it be the residual influence from the previous life?
But those memories are just fragments, and they shouldn’t be enough to affect me. Is it because the soul in this life has already been exposed to the memories of the previous life before it was born, so the impact is so serious?"
He felt a little confused about what happened to him.
As a demon on both the body and soul levels.
He didn't have any of the sympathy, family affection, friendship, or concepts of good and evil that humans have, but he had some strange reactions to things like love, and he couldn't figure out why.
Is it because he is a mutated demon?
Or maybe it’s because I’m too young and the human memories from my previous life have preconceptions affected me?
After thinking about it, he finally didn't get the answer, so he put the still-beating heart in his mouth, ate it, and completed the installation process again.
He turned around and studied other things again.
He knows very well that human emotions may affect him to a certain extent, but in the final analysis, he is still a demon and cannot make him make too many changes.
'Perhaps it would be good to think of this as the spice of life?'
He thought like this.

Looking at Safi and others with smiles on their faces as they left.
The minister responsible for planning the city's construction asked James Watts cautiously: "Your Highness, do we really want to allow them to build a parish in the royal capital?"
For Jim Watts, he suddenly called him from home and asked him to plan land for the church people to build a parish.
He really didn't understand this operation.
You must know that two hundred years ago, when the royal and divine rights were in dispute again, the royal family did not hesitate to go to war in order to expel the church members from the Principality of Marton.
After that, in the past two hundred years, although churches were occasionally built in the Kingdom of Marton, the few godfathers and nuns could only be regarded as a small effort and could not make a big impact.
But if a brand new diocese is established in the royal capital, it will be different!
This is like setting up a flag. The scattered church forces in nearby cities and even nearby principalities will automatically unite as if they have a backbone, which will not be conducive to the rule and management of the royal family.
Jim nodded slowly and whispered to the worried minister beside him: "This is a necessary thing. Although the reason is difficult to explain, it is definitely more beneficial to us for the church to get involved at this time.
, so you don’t have to worry about anything, everything is expected.”
Looking at James Watts's serious eyes, the minister knew that there must be many hidden secrets. His expression changed for a while and then he sighed slightly: "I understand, I will definitely do my job well and not cause any trouble for your plan.
."
"Sorry for your trouble."
When the white-haired minister left, James Watts also had a complicated expression. As a principality that has been established for thousands of years, the Principality of Marton naturally has various intricate hidden dangers and various corrupt relationship networks.
Everywhere, only this kind of backbone who has passed the test of time and is absolutely loyal to the royal family can occasionally reveal some inside information.
'It has been half a year since the death of my father. After stabilizing the situation, I should also prepare for my ascension to the throne... Before taking over the kingdom, who knew that this country was almost completely decayed. The branches of the royal family, the millennium-old aristocratic family, the business
Business families all over the world... really no one wants to settle down...'
He knew very well that if rotten flesh kept growing on the body, it would become the cause of the disease. Even if it was cured for a while, it would not last long. Only by cutting it off could it be completely cured. However, cutting off flesh to treat diseases was a technical job, and it would not be easy if it was not handled well.
It is the cause of death that causes the injury to worsen.
He has to treat it with caution, but if there is a chance, he is not lacking in ruthlessness and will not mind taking some risks...
Tuk tuk…
At this moment, the maid outside the door knocked twice on the door.
"Your Highness, Lord Charles, whom you ordered before, is here to visit with a token of honor."
"Char? Oh, just ask him to come directly."
This so-called Ciel is the new identity of the magician Salt.
It was specially prepared for him by Jem Watts, and there were almost no flaws.
Even people from the church would never find anything suspicious about this identity.
It can also be regarded as a way to thank Salt for his previous favor.
If he hadn't given Orshiga two places to save him and Baron Duke's lives, Orshiga would have drained their blood and crushed their bones on the day he arrived.
Ash.
He had specially arranged for people to clean up the abandoned prison the next day, fearing that someone would discover the summoning ceremony there and attract people from the church. However, his subordinates reported that there was only one square meter left there.
In the 100-meter large pit, all materials were completely burned by unknown forces. Even the land was burned into a crystalline state, let alone corpses and the like.
In this regard, he could only express that he was very grateful that Salt saved his life, and the relationship between the two has now become much better...
------
Soon after, a middle-aged man in his forties walked in.
Jim Watts sat on the chair, pointed to the seat next to him, and said with a smile: "Welcome, Salt, I haven't seen you for a while."
The other party was not polite and sat down directly: "It's true that I haven't seen you for a long time, Your Highness. But there is nothing you can do. I told you that after using that spell, you must rest for a few days, otherwise the bones and skin will be damaged.
Something went wrong."
After he sat down, Jim Watts carefully looked at Salt's current appearance, and exclaimed with some curiosity: "It's such a magical spell. It can even completely change the appearance of human beings. If it wasn't
Your voice hasn't changed, I really don't dare to recognize you!"
Salter smiled and said: "This is my best ability. It is a spell I learned from an ancient secret book. If it were not too demanding to use and I didn't have any suitable identity, the church would not be able to hunt me down.
."
His appearance at this time was no longer the same as before. Not only had his facial features changed, but his height had also grown slightly.
Even if he walked up to the church's Inquisition priests who were specifically responsible for hunting down bounties, no one would be able to recognize him.
James Watts picked up two wine glasses in front of him and filled them with fine wine. After passing one glass to Salt, he also picked up one himself:
"Your change is not just about your appearance. I can feel that your personality and behavior have changed a lot. You are a completely different person from when we first met. You no longer have that sinister feeling.
, as if he had been completely transformed.”
Taking the wine glass and facing the other person's curious gaze, Salt shook his head: "After all, people will always change, right? You'd better call me Charles from now on, I like this name better!"
"bite!"
The wine glasses clinked lightly, and the two looked at each other and smiled.
"Okay, Ciel."
I drank a little bit of red wine and tasted the taste.
Shaking the wine glass gently and looking at the liquid flowing inside, Jem shrugged his shoulders: "Thank you very much for liking this name. I made it up originally. But if it weren't for that guy's influence, I think you would still have it in your life.
That sorcerer Salt will never be able to become the 'Char' he is now."
"Indeed, perhaps only after experiencing fear and being destroyed by their own arrogance can humans better understand themselves.
Although I didn't show it in front of you at the beginning, I was actually very arrogant. I looked down on most people and regarded them as dispensable bugs until Orshika appeared in front of me.
.
I fell into fear just by sensing part of his power. Facing his gaze, I couldn't even think of resisting. I didn't even dare to use the spell I was always proud of. It wasn't until then that I understood,
In front of higher-level beings, I am actually just an insect, and I can crush it to death with just a little force..."
Jim Watts, who originally just wanted to hear some interesting stories, twitched his ears and felt as if he had heard some useful information. He immediately asked: "...can you sense the strength gap between yourself and Orshika?
?”
Looking at Jem Watts in surprise, Charles thought for a while and said hesitantly: "I think it would be better for you to give up using force to deal with Orshiga. When he first arrived, although the summoning ceremony
There were some problems, but I still inevitably had some contact with him, so I could vaguely feel his power at that time. It was beyond the scope of what humans in this era could deal with. The gap between humans and him was like a beast and an ant.
