After dodging the attack at the critical moment, Karl fell into the debris and saw what was attacking him.
A creature that was as dark as a shadow and looked like an ordinary black cat stood where he was just now.
A pair of yellow eyes on its face were staring at Karl closely at the moment, exuding its malice unscrupulously and looking like it would attack again at any time!
"Karl, you can only use [Decapitating Blade]!"
Cyril, who was standing aside, immediately pushed Marcus back to the cabinet while still providing Karl with information about the creature in front of him.
"This is a shadow beast, normal attacks have no effect on it."
However, as soon as she finished her reminder, the shadow beast on the ground immediately jumped up. Originally facing Karl, it drew a half-moon-shaped black light in the air, and rushed in front of Ceryl in the blink of an eye!
Facing the attack of this shadow beast, Cyril had no time to dodge and could only take the blow firmly.
The result was that the shadow beast Seriel passed through the chest, and a hole was dug out in the middle of the originally intact body. Looking at the edges of the wound, it should have been torn apart by this thing's claws just now. Karl even
You can see the scenery behind Cyril through the hole in her chest.
I definitely can't afford to take such a hit. Being hit is almost equal to death, so I must not be hit by it next.
"I'm here to attract its attention, Karl, you see the opportunity!"
While Karl was still surprised by the destructive power of this thing, Cyril had completely ignored the wounds on her body, turned around like a normal person and continued to keep a close eye on the shadow beast.
"Come and play with me, little kitten."
At this moment, the black substance in Cyril's body was frantically repairing the gap. At the same time, she stretched out her finger to hook the monster, attracting it to attack her again.
"roar!"
Sure enough, it roared, and the shadow beast continued to pounce on Cyril, and the target of its attack this time was the head of the guy in front of him who dared to provoke him!
"head!"
The moment the shadow beast attacked, Cyril confirmed the target of his attack, and then shouted out as quickly as possible.
Karl behind him also understood it, and without a trace of hesitation, the projection of [Decapitating Blade] was already shooting towards Cyril's head!
The timing of Karl's projection was just right. Because his line of sight was blocked by Cyril, the shadow beast did not notice Karl's movements at all. The moment before biting Cyril's head, the projection of [Decapitating Blade] came from Cyril's head.
Passing through, the sharp blade directly cut off one of the shadow beast's front claws.
"Ouch!"
Letting out a scream of pain, the shadow beast hit Cyril's face and fell heavily to the ground.
Then it struggled to stand up, and its figure moved quickly again, turning into a black flash of light and rushing out of the door, disappearing without a trace.
A severed claw and some blood like ink were left on the spot, and it ran away decisively.
Seeing the shadow beast leaving here, Karl went over and closed the door of this room without saying a word, and then ran over to check on Cyril.
After being pierced through the head by the projection of [Decapitating Blade], Cyril fell directly to the ground. At this time, the projection of [Decapitating Blade] was inserted into her head, her limbs were still twitching, and her mouth seemed to be whispering.
What are you talking about.
Upon seeing this, Karl quickly removed his projection, squatted down and asked.
"Are you okay?"
Seeing Ceryl's miserable appearance, Karl was also a little unsure of her condition.
Could it be that the so-called power of dreams can harm her so much?
However, Ceryl immediately demonstrated her endurance with actual actions. In just 3 or 4 seconds after Karl canceled the projection, her body fully recovered and the twitching of her limbs stopped.
Then under Karl's gaze, she slowly propped up her body with her hands.
Bang!
…
It seemed that she was not strong enough. She failed to support her body with her hands and hit her face again, making a sound that sounded painful.
"Can't you be a gentleman and pull me up!"
Lying on the ground, Cyril shouted loudly without raising her head.
"puff!"
Although they had just fought, Karl still couldn't help laughing.
He quickly stretched out his hand to help Seryl up, and continued to ask: "Is that thing common here just now?"
If the Shadow Realm is full of such creatures, then Karl thinks they can just go home. The probability of Xibel surviving in this environment is too low, and there is no need to look for her.
"Shadow beasts are creatures that are formed after ordinary beasts accidentally enter the shadow world, stay in the shadow world for a long time and are unable to leave, and are corroded by the shadow element."
As she said this, Ceryl hugged Karl's arm tightly and rubbed her face gently, her face full of helplessness.
"This must be a cat raised by someone in the hotel that accidentally entered here. It's just bad luck that we encountered it."
"All right."
Karl withdrew his arm from her arms, why did he feel like a little girl who was being taken advantage of, even though Cyril was a beautiful girl?
After walking over in two steps, Karl opened the cabinet door that he had just closed, and Marcus was sitting inside.
Unexpectedly, the butler did not escape, but stayed here waiting for the end of their battle.
To be honest, Karl thought Marcus would run down the stairs in a panic, and he was even ready to climb the stairs again.
It seems that a butler who can be such a big shot has a good psychological quality.
With this in mind, Karl stretched out his hand to him and said, "Mr. Marcus, that thing just now has been solved. Now we can continue to the kitchen."
"So fast?"
Marcus looked at Karl curiously, a little in disbelief. He thought this kind of battle would last for a long time, but how long did it take for them to be finished?
Taking Karl's arm and jumping out of the cabinet, the housekeeper turned his head and looked at the surrounding environment.
"Where's the monster's body?"
"It's just repelled, look at it."
Karl pointed to the ground, where there were the severed feet and black blood left by the shadow beast.
"Okay, I hope you can still ensure my safety in the future."
With that said, Marcus took the initiative to walk to the door, and then looked at Karl.
"Can you open it?"
"sure."
Now that the shadow beast has left, there should be no threat here for the time being.
After opening the door, there was indeed nothing wrong outside. There was no trace of any living thing in the empty corridor.
Before the three of them left here, Cyril specially took away the severed foot of the shadow beast.
According to her, she needs to 'replenish her body'.
…
Well, it replenishes the body in every sense of the word.
In this way, under the leadership of Marcus, the three of them came to the kitchen without incident, and did not encounter any monsters on the way.
