"There's a demon king in my body, isn't it a monster?"

'But that's not your fault...'

'But no one else thinks so...'

'Then will you hate the world?'

"To be honest, at the beginning, I thought why everyone else could live so happily, and only I had to suffer so much, and sometimes I even felt that even if the demon king was really resurrected, it wasn't necessarily a bad thing, anyway, the world was so cruel to me, just let it be ruined. But then I slowly realized that I was wrong, there are actually so many beautiful things in this world, and there are so many interesting people, how can they not be innocent? Is it fair to have them buried with me because of my own suffering? If so, what difference is there between me and the 'fate' that I hate? So my idea now is very simple, I want to do my best to prevent the resurrection of the Demon King, although that may not solve all the problems of the world, but at least it can help many people like you."

'You're so kind, you don't look like a demon king at all...'

"Originally, I am me, it is it, I may not be able to choose to become a Demon King Horcrux, but at least I can decide who I am, otherwise I will really bow to fate.'

Speaking of which, I felt Anna behind me shake slightly.

'What's wrong with you?'

'It's okay, it's just that my feet still hurt a little...' Anna's voice was small, as if she was a little absent-minded.

"Otherwise, I'd better carry you back first, this little shabby room doesn't seem to have any useful clues after a long time."

'This...' Anna seemed hesitant, and it was at this moment that I suddenly noticed a glimmer of light in the distance.

'What is this?' I couldn't help but walk over there curiously.

'Wait, don't go over yet!' At this time, Anna behind me suddenly said nervously.

'What's wrong?' I asked, turning my head.

'What if there is any danger?'

'Probably not, right?' I laughed and felt like Anna was a little overly nervous.

'Anyway... Anyway, the situation is unclear now, so it's better to observe it first.' Anna said anxiously.

'That's fine.' I didn't quite understand why she was suddenly so nervous, but out of caution, I obediently stood there and quietly watched the light.

'It looks like a magic circle...'

'Could it be a trap?'

"I don't know, this is the first time I've seen this figure, if only the princess or Xiao Jia were there, they are experts in this area.' As I spoke, I subconsciously took a few steps forward, trying to see better.

'Wait, don't go there!' Anna screamed and grabbed my neck with both hands, and I was amazed at how she reacted.

'What's wrong with you?' Before I could finish speaking, I suddenly heard a muffled sound under my feet, and then the whole magic array suddenly activated, and the purple-red light flowed slowly like a liquid, drawing a complex and strange figure on the ground, and suddenly I felt dizzy, as if something was slowly draining my strength, I hurriedly wanted to retreat, but my feet seemed to be sucked by something, and I couldn't move.

'Anna, run!' Realizing that the situation was not good, I hurriedly turned my head and said to Anna behind me, and at the same time desperately broke her hands around my neck and threw her out, but after landing on the ground, Anna did not escape, but stood in place with difficulty, looking at me with a sad face.

At this time, the lights suddenly brightened up, and a few people walked from the corner of the house, and I fixed my eyes on the leader of the Dacula!

'Kids, it's nice to see you again.' Still the graceful smile, the same magnetic voice, the same pair of eyes that reveal evil desire, Dacula at this time looked proud.

'It's a trap!' I glared at it.

'What do you say?' Dacula smiled and shrugged his shoulders with a condescending look.

At this time, I really thought that I was too careless, originally, Bezukhov is heavily guarded here, how could I be allowed to come and go freely for half a day? It seems that the whole thing was designed by Dacula from the beginning, waiting for me to throw myself into the net, so it can't...

'Anna, you betrayed me!?' I turned to Anna and asked, who was stunned and didn't answer, just bowed his head expressionlessly and gave me a default.

Sure enough, everything now makes sense, and I wondered if Bridge's gang hadn't been able to find me, shouldn't they have suspected Anna in the first place? How could she still be allowed to be active in the castle for so long? It seems that she should have been the first to go to the whistle after leaving the room, and everything that followed was just a drama to gain my trust, but in fact, it was all obvious, why didn't I find out before...

'Why?' I turned my head and asked, and while it might not make sense to talk about it now, I still hope to get an answer.

'That's a matter of course...' Before Anna could speak, Dacula on the side replied first, and then she slowly stepped forward and took Anna's right hand and kissed her gently, as if she were meeting a princess.

'For she is our King.' Dacula looked at Anna and said meaningfully.

'King!? Could it be that you...' Suddenly I realized something terrible.

'That's right, I'm just like you, I'm a Horcrux...,' Anna smiled wryly, probably the most poignant smile I've ever seen in my life.

At that moment, my mind went blank, there were other Horcruxes in this world besides me, which sounded strange at first, but when I think about it, it doesn't seem that there are no clues to follow, why I feel so close to Anna since I first saw it, as if I had been reunited for a long time, and the strange dream I had before, all of which seemed to hint at the extraordinary relationship between the two of us. I don't know if it's because the mutations that happened one after another hit me too much, or because of the damn magic array, after that I felt like my eyes were dark and passed out....

When I opened my eyes again, I saw a starry sky, although it was only artificially drawn on the ceiling, but the effect was extremely realistic, even the position of the constellations was not different from each other, there was a skylight in the middle of the ceiling, pointing directly to the sky, and the moonlight shining in from it was like a silver-white light veil, and the whole picture was almost the same as the starry sky you see outside. And under this beautiful picture, I am tied to an iron bed, and my limbs are handcuffed to the corners of the bed, which is quite funny. I tried to break free, but it turned out to be in vain.

'Hey, anyone?' I tried to shout twice, but no one answered, and it seemed like I was the only one left in the huge room. Because my neck is not tied, I can barely look around, this room is very large, but there are no furnishings around, except for the four corners of the candlestick is the iron bed that binds me, the alchemy table is still placed in front of me, and on the floor is a huge magic array, generally this kind of thing is improvised, some of the more advanced ones are printed on cloth or woven into blankets, but this magic array seems to be made of special tiles, this project is huge, the cost is simply jaw-dropping.
