Chapter II: The Encounter between the Star and the Tower II
[Tower], its name as a part of the tarot is destined to be extraordinary, it is the only card in the tarot card that has no good intentions, whether it is good or bad, the fate that greets it is a tragic fate, it can be said that it is a real next lot.
No matter how tightly you hold the double-edged sword, its blade will always stare at your flaws.
If you can't harness your power, you'll die in your own power.
"That's you...... Killed my father......" Xingyu stared at the blood-colored tower on the card, his calm tone soaked with hatred and determination, "but now, your power will always be at my disposal." ”
Xingyu did not have his father in his memory, and that heroic name only existed in the words of his elders. Xingyu knew very little about her father, but there were only two things she was so sure about.
First, the father's ability is a height that he can never reach.
Second, my father died in his own ability - [The Tower].
Xingyu doesn't understand why a person can be killed by herself, but she always believes that her father is an admirable legend. She has been studying magic for years, but her poor adaptability to her family's magic has been slow.
Until one day, she walked into the family forbidden book library.
In one corner, an old book lay inconspicuously. No one would have thought that Xingyu would notice such a book.
The black goatskin cover was covered with scratches and dirt, but the blood-colored inverted pentagram on the cover was extremely vivid. When approached, it also seems to emit a faint red light.
This is the temptation of the devil, and this is undoubtedly a forbidden book that will fall into hell if touched. But in the face of the deep darkness on the cover, the kind of taboo that makes people want to touch it, it is difficult to refuse.
I don't know what kind of determination Xingyu had to read it at that time, and what kind of determination he had to study it. But I have to admit that Xingyu's ability has improved by leaps and bounds since she studied this book, and anyone in the family is surprised by her progress.
However, the contract with the demon is promised with blood!
As his ability grew, Xing Yu could clearly feel that when he was fighting, his hands were getting heavier and heavier, and his methods were becoming more and more cruel. Until now, he has been fighting entirely as a demon.
"What is your true face...... The power of the soul...... Right? Xingyu said in a deep voice, a cold voice that couldn't believe it came from Xingyu's mouth, "Give me your soul...... Be my servant...... What do you think? ”
Pull out a hair, quickly fold it into the shape of an inverted cross with the ability of a [magician], slowly place it on [the tower], stretch out his right hand, and operate it in an orderly manner.
"I take your soul!"
In an instant, a huge burst of energy. At that moment, Xingyu tried her best to absorb [the tower's] soul energy, but [the tower's] power was obviously beyond her imagination, and it was also doing its best to protect itself, releasing a huge amount of energy that made [the tower's] surroundings seem to burn with black flames.
"Is that what it takes? Sure enough, you're just a card in the end! Xingyu smiled triumphantly, a smile that sent chills down the spine but was incomparably beautiful. That's the end of playtime, go die!! ”
The demon screamed excitedly and decided to deliver the final blow. The inverted pentagram on the back of Xingyu's hand, which symbolized the demon, gradually turned blood-red, and a blinding light was shining outward.
In the next second of this moment, everything seemed to come to a standstill, as if the moment of zero became a blank in that moment. The only thing she could feel was a voice that was most out of step with her, uttered three words that were most fatal to her:
“[Glory Of Heaven]!”
