Chapter 68: Blood Debt

Given's hearing the demon's curse froze.

He never imagined what would happen to him with demonic souls in his body. Although the soul seemed to be incomplete and had never affected his life, the demon's words still kept beating at Jiwen's heart.

Will you lose consciousness in a dream and disappear from this world forever, so that the demon will occupy your body and live in your own face?

Or is the demonic curse real? Could it be a psychological trap that the demon deliberately set for himself before he died?

The myriad of questions, tangled together, seemed to have no clue, leaving Gawain a little at a loss. Even his hand holding the sword began to tremble a little.

But suddenly, Jiwen's hands suddenly felt the surge of energy on the hilt of the sword, and he involuntarily clenched the hilt of the sword, slamming the sword body to the ground, as if to dispel all the dark clouds in his heart.

The magical blade of Destiny immediately shattered the ground, causing a violent vibration.

By the time the tremor had completely subsided, Jiwen's heart had already regained its peace. He looked at the demon's twisted body and smiled self-deprecatingly.

"Since you can defeat a living demon, what is there to be afraid of the remnant soul of a dead demon. ”

That's what Givens said to himself.

At that moment, there was some movement in the room. The violent vibration just now woke someone up. Sheriff Ares patted the dust off his body and stood up from the corner of the basement.

He looked at Jivan, and then at the corpse of the demon on the ground, and roughly guessed what had just happened.

"Good job!" Ares muttered. However, what he didn't want to admit was that Adelia's summoned beast was far superior to him in terms of strength.

The seasoned sheriff walked up to the demon's corpse, kicked the demon, and then said to himself, "Now the case can be closed, we have caught the murderer who committed these bloodbaths." ”

"The real murderer is not this demon. Jiwen quickly explained that he didn't want the purple-eyed demon to get away with it.

Ares looked at Given, then added.

"Of course, the killer may have helpers. But with this guy, he was able to close the case. ”

In the midst of Given's puzzled gaze, Ares bent down and pulled out a mask from his storage bag that was almost identical to Given's helmet and fastened it to the demon's face. Then he pulled out a black cloak, tore it into several pieces, and spread it next to the demon's corpse.

"How do you have these things?" said Given, growing in surprise.

"Don't forget, I've played two matches in the City Arena by pretending to be you, and that's a must-have. "Ares is proud.

By the time Ares had set up the scene, Givens already knew what he was going to do.

Anyone who sees this scene will be temporarily mistaken for the fact that the dead demon is the culprit responsible for the chaos in the city. Then Adella's grievances can be temporarily cleared and released, and she will be able to participate in tomorrow's selection exam.

As for the real murderer, it is completely possible to search for it slowly, and this time he has captured a lot of demon servants, and he can always interrogate some clues, so he will not be as passive as before. Even if the murderer commits the crime again, there is more than one murderer who can be excused.

But as a senior sheriff, doing such a thing made Jiwen still a little surprised.

Ares didn't care, after this adventure together, he didn't treat Jiwen as a summoned beast anymore, he didn't care about showing his attitude.

"Strange, but I have neither wronged a good man nor spared a criminal. I just want Adella to come out of that hellish place sooner. Do you have any comments?"

Givens shook his head.

Seeing that Given's objections were no longer there, Ares glanced down at the basement again, and then prepared to call the sheriffs and claim the scene.

Just as Gilvin and Ares were about to leave the basement. The basement door opened, and a man they didn't expect walked in.

"Elder Curzon!"

"What the hell is this old fellow. ”

Elder Curzon walked in quietly, looked at the mess around him, and then said, "You are making such a big noise near the Summoning Academy, and you expect me to not hear anything?"

After speaking, Elder Curzon pointed to the demon corpse on the ground.

"Ares, did you do it?"

Ares shrugged his shoulders and glanced at Given.

"No, that's to be asked of your student's servant. ”

Elder Curzon looked suspiciously at the middle-aged elf he had ever seen, and he knew that behind this illusion was a summoned beast that he didn't trust the most. Even if he killed the demon and cleared Adelia's grievances, Elder Curzon wouldn't trust Given.

In a sense, Curzon didn't just distrust Giving, he didn't trust everything in that summoning.

When Curzon discovered that due to his own negligence, the demon had quietly extended its tentacles to Adelia's side, and even successfully intervened in the summoning, Elder Curzon became extremely vigilant.

After all, even the student Enya has become a victim of the demon, so this suspicious summoned beast is not worth trusting completely. Even if she is the daughter of the Archon family, Curzon did not rule out the possibility that she was not secretly seduced by the devil.

Because Curzon knew who he was dealing with, the hidden adversary, who was far more proficient in intrigue and deception than he was.

"You put this mask on?"

Curzon could guess the whole story with just one glance, but he wasn't about to completely debunk Ares' trick. Just as Ares was in a hurry to make an excuse, he seemed to say the next sentence inadvertently.

"You should keep your mask tight, or you will easily show your feet in the face of connoisseurs like the Archon Midharya. ”

As soon as he heard this, a look of relaxation flashed on Ares' face, and he walked up to the demon again and crouched down, tidied up the skeleton beast's head mask and broken cloak for a while, until there were no more flaws, and then he stood up satisfied.

"Let's go, I'll leave it to my colleagues. ”

Seeing that he was done with all this, Elder Curzon also nodded and took the lead to leave the basement, and Ares quickly followed suit.

Ji Wen deliberately ignored Elder Curzon, but he didn't care, he didn't really want to have any communication with this old man. I saw that Givens deliberately followed Curzon a step away from Curzon, and then accompanied Ares forward.

After walking out of the treehouse, Jiwen found that there were already many summoners from the Summoning Academy and city sheriffs who had rushed to hear the news.

When they watched Elder Curzon and Ares come out safely, they rushed into the treehouse without waiting for orders.

However, they were all deeply curious about the mysterious third party, the middle-aged elf who came out after Elder Curzon was not very good-looking, and he could talk to Ares very happily, and his demeanor did not seem to take the famous Elder Curzon of the city into account in the slightest.

Who is this stranger?

Many sheriffs and summoners came up with a name - the King's Sword.

As a covert and violent institution of the elven kingdom of Solland, the King's Sword hides countless sword-wielders throughout the kingdom. With just one order from the Guardian, these hidden warriors or summoners can drop their disguises and deal with the threats to the kingdom.

Maybe this guy is the sword-wielder who was sent here to help deal with the demons.

And a sword-wielding man is either enviable or terrifying, and Given's temperament now clearly belongs to the latter.

Although Ji Wen put away the long sword "Fate", the smell of demonic blood stained on his body, and the solemn aura that had just experienced a bloody battle, made those who were familiar with the battle feel invisible pressure.

Given's fearful gaze was unnoticed, his attention was now drawn to Ares, the old sheriff was quietly discussing with Given's next step, how to get the will to release Adelia from the city's lawyer's hand.

The sheriffs who stormed the treehouse were very efficient. Soon, the demons' minions were escorted out by the sheriffs, and the demons' bodies were moved out of the messy basement.

Just when everyone on the scene was busy. Somewhere in the darkness away from the treehouse, there was the figure of an elf, his eyes were strangely purple, and his gaze was burning fiercely, firmly fixed on the demon corpse placed next to the treehouse.

His twin brother was lying there cold, and the elves had extinguished the flame of his life.

The demon Lakabi, disguised as an elf, is already out of anger at this moment. The death of his brother left him without the ability to control his emotions.

Looking at Elder Curzon and Ares in the crowd, as well as the strange elf standing beside them, the demon gritted his teeth and repeated in a trembling voice, "Only death can honor death, and only blood can repay blood." ”
