When Zera realized that what she was holding was the "Sirius Jade", it was too late to throw it away.
As long as someone makes physical contact with this stone, the black magic energy it absorbs will become active again.
And now that I accidentally hold it in my hand, I have undoubtedly become the best medium.
There was no room for her to hesitate at all. The moment the two parties came into contact, the stone in her hand quickly spread its negative energy, making the already mentally weak little girl even worse.
(Well……!)
Clenching his teeth and covering his forehead, he half-crouched on the ground. The white light on Zera's body began to distort, fighting against the "Sirius Jade" that emitted dark energy.
If it were an ordinary person, it would have been eroded by this stone that harbors the power of black magic. However, Zera's [Angel] is a symbol of life. Even if it is not complete, it can instinctively suppress this evil energy.
effect.
The circle of light, one black and one white, kept shaking, affecting everyone's minds.
What made Zella's relatives and friends feel bad was that the dark shadow gradually took over.
…
"Hmph...he deserves it. That brat is finished."
After discovering that the 'magic device' in the sky had stopped attacking, the weird little girl also fell down in pain, and the gloomy man who knew that his sneak attack was successful walked out from the corner.
"You bastard, how dare you show up?!!!"
Seeing the person coming, Giuself couldn't help shouting angrily.
Because he was the 'powerful mage' who spent a lot of money to invite him, only to disappear when the war started.
Ignoring the man yelling at him, the culprit was still fidgeting with his cloak, looking very narcissistic.
"...Is this what you are?!"
It wasn't until he finished packing his new luggage that Giuself realized with surprise which link had gone wrong.
This image is exactly the one commonly used by a man named Qiao Puli, the president of the "Blue Skull" who just took over.
"Haha, please don't talk to me in this tone, President Gislf."
With a feminine tone that matched his appearance, Qiao Puli did not hide his ridicule.
"After all, even I didn't expect that a little trick like cross-dressing would be so successful."
"If you want to blame it, blame it on your own stupidity."
After saying that, he sighed and shook his head in a very cooperative manner.
This move made Giself, who was holding his breath, furious and launched an attack on Chopli.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, I think you have time to go crazy here, why not think about how to save your own life."
He easily blocked Giself's angry blow with his magic wand. It can be said that the strength of the two men was comparable.
However, Qiao Puli obviously had no intention of wasting time with Giself, and instead pointed to the area where the black air had filled the air with a look of regret.
"That kid is your daughter, right? It's really enviable and surprising that she has such a talent at such a young age."
"It's just that this is the end."
A sinister smile appeared on his face, as if he was very happy to be able to destroy such a genius.
"——What the hell is going on?! What did you bastard do to Zella?!"
Of course, Gilsev noticed something strange there, but this situation made him dare not act rashly.
"...Hey, please don't be too surprised when I say it. That kid is cursed by black magic."
"——!"
Black magic is a symbol recognized as taboo in every era.
Because of the legendary black mage who was the most powerful and vicious in the history of the magic world, everything related to these taboos today is, without exception, death and destruction.
Although Qiao Puli didn't know what black magic it was, it didn't stop him from being so bluffing.
The negative energy that was coming from there now made him feel palpitated. Even if it wasn't black magic, no one would believe it.
"Zera..."
He knelt down weakly on the ground. As a magician, Giuself naturally knew what black magic meant.
At the same time, the 'magic device' in the sky that was extremely mysterious to them seemed to be out of control.
"Well! This is really dangerous. It seems that the curse has taken effect..."
Qiao Puli, who avoided a random attack from the 'magic device' above his head and had some small thoughts, restrained his greed a little.
Taking [Angel]'s rampage due to his master as a curse of black magic, and feeling that his own life was still at stake, Qiao Puli raised his staff and emitted a flickering light.
This regular flashing pattern is the retreat signal of the "Blue Skull".
Although he lost most of his subordinates because of that inexplicable brat, some of them still survived. These people are all the labor force to realize his "future kingdom".
Moreover, the headquarters of the "Red Lizard" was almost destroyed this time. Apart from not being able to get some treasures, the original goal was achieved.
However, it is still a pity for Chopli that he could not eradicate Giself and the others. After all, it is not suitable to stay here for a long time. Who knows when the black magic bomb will explode.
It's a lose-lose outcome.
(No, it should be said to be my victory. After all, I destroyed a future great magician...)
With a triumphant smile, Qiao Puli looked at the little girl who was still entangled with the energy of black magic.
But just this look almost brought him to a place of eternal destruction.
In the center of the ruins, Zera was half-crouching in a very bad condition.
The spreading black energy and the restored white light treated her body as a battlefield. Emotions such as pain, chaos, destruction, etc. constantly stimulated her soul, which was on the verge of collapse.
Breathing heavily and trying to concentrate on driving away the negative energy, the "Sirian Wolf Jade" seemed to have taken root and stuck tightly to the little girl's free hand.
It seems that this broken stone did not expect that this seemingly ordinary little human girl would be so difficult to deal with, and now she seems to be riding a tiger that is unable to get off.
The energy of life and the negative breath are constantly dissolving each other. Now it depends on whether Zella's spirit can't hold on anymore or whether the black magic power of "Sirius Jade" has been released first.
(Damn... I'm really in big trouble this time...)
Feeling that her [Angel] was beginning to show signs of going berserk, Zella pulled an ugly bitter smile from the corner of her mouth.
Her current situation can only be described as misfortunes never come singly.
With her unbalanced body sitting on a stone slab, Zella looked at her feet.
The purple lines began to slowly climb upward like cracked threads.
The trauma in the soul has begun to show up in the body.
(I didn’t expect that I would be in trouble as soon as I lost the system. Could it be that that thing is actually an amulet...)
Her consciousness gradually blurred, and she knew that this time it was probably really a disaster.
He clenched the stone unwillingly, as if he wanted to crush it into pieces.
(…!)
Feeling that more and more negative energy was flooding her, an unstoppable thought suddenly appeared in Zella's mind.
An absolutely crazy idea that might allow her to reverse the situation.
(Ah...if I can survive...)
(…)
The next moment, Zella's 'consciousness' gave up resistance.
The negative black light completely engulfed the little girl's body, forming a dark sphere.
The inorganic sound gradually echoed.
With a whisper like a devil, black feathers descended from the sky.
"Let it bloom..."The Tree of Evil (Qliphoth)"..." (To be continued)
