What happened today was so unexpected that Assas was a little numb.

He had sent a letter before he left—that was probably the only thing he had done right—but he could have sworn to the creator god that there was absolutely no way that it would attract the man in front of him......

Also, who the hell is she?

Assas did not know her name.

He had only a one-sided relationship with the female pastor, having met her in the library when he had just arrived at the school a month earlier, and had helped her with a book of hymns. The two once read books face-to-face in the library, and they didn't say a word in an afternoon-

Probably because she was really beautiful, Assas still remembers her face vividly.

But why is she here?

While he was still in doubt, the monster didn't give him time to react. When the light completely dissipated, it also lost its scruples, and rushed in the direction of the two of them with a wave of its claws.

"O Light, listen to my call!"

"Holy light, shine on the world!"

The two prayers came out at the same time, and the weapons in the hands of Assas and the girl resounded with brilliant light at the same time. Asask stepped forward with a shield of pain on his body, and in just one second, he had already filled himself with a buff status, and the girl waved her scepter, and Divine Healing, Divine Magic, Passion, Divine Courage, and so on rained down on Assas's head, blessing Assas's state to the extreme. And the monster looked very afraid of the holy light, when he saw Assas shining brightly, he actually subconsciously retreated, and the momentum suddenly slowed down, and the two collided at the right time, and Assas's blow did not fall!

Opportunity!

Assas flicked his shield hard, bringing the monster out of the stumbling, and then raised his sword high, and the blade rippling with the power of the Holy Light fell, leaving a deep wound on the monster's body!

It's a pity that his artifact "Knight's Creed" was left behind in the battle just now and he didn't have time to pick it up, otherwise the power caused by this sword would never be more than that. But the physical damage was only the beginning, and the holy light attached to the blade did extraordinary damage to the monster, a puff of black smoke rose almost visibly from his wounds, and there was even a clearly visible burning sound from the wounds where the holy light remained—the monster let out a terrible scream, staggered back a few steps and widened the distance.

Assas could see the horror in his red eyes.

"Dauntless Charge!"

With the blessing of the Light, Assas once again charged at the monster. Gold and white light intertwined, and Ashas rushed towards the monster with an unrelenting momentum. The monster subconsciously raised its claws to block, but was knocked out on the spot by Artsas's fearless charge, and the momentum of the fearless charge continued, and Assas also raised his long sword, the sharp tip of the sword to the monster. It seems that he wants to use the powerful inertia of the dreadnought charge to directly stab the monster through!

"Ahhhh————h

But the monster didn't dodge.

It roared in the sky, its two sharp claws cutting several deep intersecting blood marks on its chest, and red blood instantly flowed all over its chest. The near-self-mutilating act looked a little strange, but as the blood flowed, puffs of black gas spilled out of the wound and burrowed into its limbs and torso. Its original blue-gray body turned an abnormal red, and then turned into a black dry and hard body, and its body shape was also changing, it was only a little taller than Assas, and it had now skyrocketed to three meters, and its thick muscles were clearly layered-

When Assas finally burst in front of it with his sword, it grabbed Assas's sword and threw him back, ignoring the cut wound on his hand!

The impact of the landing made Assas's body even worse, and although the girl's healing skills followed in time, the injuries to the internal organs and bones were difficult to repair quickly. He gritted his teeth, and the longsword station struggled to stand up and put on a defensive posture, but his heart became more and more solemn.

This feeling always reminded him of the time when he fought against Mocarus before, when Mocarus, who was wielding the artifact trident Ocean Pastoral, had overwhelmed him - this is not to say that the strength of the other party can be compared to the newly awakened Sage Mocarus, but at that time he was powerless because of the huge gap in strength, and now he is completely at a disadvantage because of his stupidity at the beginning.

Unbearable mistakes.

The monster noticed Assas's weakness, and he clenched his fists so hard that the muscle tugged at the wound on his side that had been cut open by Assas and blood flowed again. But a cloud of light burst out in front of it, and it suddenly jumped backwards and fell on the tower, staring at the girl with a fixed fix.

The girl met it fearlessly, the scepter in her hand raised again, the aura of magic rippling around her.

"Roar—"

The monster roared unwillingly, and climbed to the top of the tower in three or two steps, and with one dodge, lost its track.

“......”

Assas breathed a sigh of relief, and he fell to his knees without support, coughing twice and spitting out a mouthful of blood.

"Are you okay, can you hold on?"

The girl dissipated her preparations for the magic, walked up to him and half-knelt down, and asked with concern.

"Huh...... Luckily, nothing was too much of a problem. Assas smiled bitterly, "Thank you just now." ”

"Nothing. The girl shook her head, "I'll take you to the infirmary." ”

"No, someone will help me. Assas rejected her kindness, took a few deep breaths, and looked up at her, "I haven't asked you yet, ma'am, what's your name?"

"My name is Eluni. ”

Eluni ...... The battle that happened just now, don't disclose it to others for the time being. ”

"Why?" Eluni frowned slightly, "that guy looks dangerous. ”

"His target is me for the time being. "I've fought other places with opponents suspected of being of his own kind, and that's probably why I've been targeted by him." ”

"Do you know what that is?" Eluni wondered, "I've never seen anything like it. ”

"......," Assas hesitated for a moment, before finally speaking, "I suspect it's a demon." ”

"Demons?" the confusion in Eluni's tone was even more confused, "but that form...... Is the demon supposed to be in that form?"

"You know the devil exists?" this time it was Assas's turn to be stunned.

"Is this a secret?" Eluni was stunned for a moment, "I got this news from my teacher. But he didn't tell me that demons were afraid of the Light. ”

Moreover, there has never been a life on the Lanman Continent that is afraid of the Holy Light. This can almost confirm the identity of the other party's visitors from other continents.

"Your teacher ......"

Assas remembered the strength of the other party's Light Priest. It seems that she should also be a student of a certain Sage, after all, so far, the news of the demon's appearance has only circulated among Sages.

"By the way, why did you know I was here?" asked Assas after a moment of silence.

"I'm coming with you. ”

Eluni replied without hesitation.

"......" Assas's expression became very strange for a while.

"Why?"

He involuntarily asked.

"The teacher wouldn't let me say it. Eluni shook her head.

“...... Was it you who found me in the library before?"

"Library......" Eluni replied with some hesitation, "probably not...... I remember that time I just went to read a book. And at that time, I didn't know you yet. Oh, actually, I don't know you yet. Your name is Assas, isn't it? Assas Cage?"

Assas stared at her deadly, trying to find any hint of lying in the girl's gaze.

But he failed. Eluni's eyes were as pure as the sky, unadulterated—though, her face flushed with a slight flush from Arthas's silent gaze, and she twisted her gaze somewhat unnaturally.

"Ah, sorry, I didn't mean to. ”

"I didn't ...... It's okay. ”

The two of them turned their heads away together.

Long.

Assas stood up with his sword in hand. Eluni tried to help him, but he gently pushed his hand away. He struggled to his feet and said solemnly to Eluni, "The identity of that demon is very mysterious, he seems to be able to shield himself from the demonic power, I suspect that he hid in the campus in this way, and may even disguise himself as a student." If you can reach your teacher, I would like you to communicate with him and tell him about it. ”

"Disguised as a student?" Eluni exclaimed, "Does a demon have that ability?"

"We don't know anything about demons, so we can only prepare for the worst. Assas smiled wryly, "Mr. Lance is also dealing with this. But before the Sages make a move, we can do what we can. ”

"Well, I'll talk to the teacher. Eluni pursed her lips and said firmly.

"Don't worry, it'll be fine. Looking at Eluni's face, Assas's mood changed a lot - he seemed to notice the smile on his lips - and he even wanted to touch Eluni's head unconsciously, but the thought was snuffed out by him as soon as it appeared. He nodded to Eluni, turned and staggered down the path behind him.

"Don't sneak with me anymore. ”

He paused, waved his hand away from her, and said, "I live in dormitory 303, if you have something, send me a letter directly." ”

He walked slowly, feeling the mass of energy behind him that belonged to Eluni go in a different direction.

After realizing that she had finally gone away, Arthas finally lost his patience and slowly collapsed against the street tree next to the road, covering his arms and inhaling the cold air, looking at his broken body, and couldn't help but show a wry smile.

"Daddy, help me, if you don't come out, your son will die here!"

He closed his eyes and wailed unabashedly at the sky.

"As always, I'm only strong in front of men, my son. You really should learn from Sfiodor. ”
