Chapter 856: If You Don't Die, You Can't Die, Why You Just Don't Understand (Part I)
Despite being known as the strongest witch, Sanelia's strength is not too strong in the entire Eastern Plains.
Almost any member of the Mage Council of the Seven Yao Mages Guild can defeat her in a single face.
Not only that, but the former head of the Templar Order of the Pure White Church, known as the Holy Silver Sword Queen, Frey also chased and killed her for more than half a year, and finally escaped by cheating.
Maybe it would be a different story after summoning all seventy-two demons, but under normal circumstances, her strength would be enough to say that she was in the top ten in the Eastern Plains, even if she was in the top fifty.
And the summoning of demons also requires a considerable price, even if she has a witch inheritance and can reduce the cost of summoning demons, she can't keep those monsters in the world for a long time.
What's worse is that the contract with the demons also requires her to hunt a corresponding number of humans every month as a price, and if she fails to reach that limit, no matter how many reasons she has for herself, her soul will be replaced and eaten by those demons.
She had wasted a long time trapped in the snow and cold of Chiefydeon, and she did not dare to openly violate the rules of the Witches' Feast and attack the inhabitants of Chiefydeon or other witches - if she did, she would be regarded as an enemy by all witches. It's not the destructive power that witches are afraid of, it's the strange and unpredictable methods, even the most nominally powerful witch, Saneria herself is only human, and God knows how many of those incognito witches can kill people under invisible curses......
It is precisely because of this that after the anomaly has improved. She immediately left the chieftain and went to the nearby town of Singridia to kill the townspeople as a makeshift sacrifice.
There were about ten people in the gap this month, and Sanelia was ready to be approached by the nearby knights after sacrificing a sufficient number of people, and even the priests of several nearby churches were already counted in the plan.
The kingdom of Lu Zhanting is not a big country, and the strength of the people in its country, whether it is the knights or the church station, is also mediocre, and she can only bully ordinary people, which is nothing to her.
It's just that I didn't expect that when the sacrifice didn't even reach half of the people, a guy who looked like a knight appeared in the town.
Among them, there were quite a few second-turn magic swordsmen, such as the guy she had just killed - that kind of sharp intuition and agile movements. If it weren't for the fact that he had learned the black magic beforehand, the vigilance of the other party would have been greatly reduced. And if she sneaks up on it, maybe that guy alone will let her miss, although it won't put her in a bitter battle, but it is inevitable that someone else will find out about the situation in this hotel.
Anyway, after she secretly scouted this group of people during the day. The most wary of this group. It's still the young man who dressed as a magician.
Black witchcraft does not fall under the category of magic though. But magic such as 'evil dispel' and 'spell counter' are actually effective against black witchcraft as well. In a sense, it's not wrong to say that magicians are the natural nemesis of dark wizards and witches, and even the Pure White Church likes to entrust magicians with solving problems caused by dark wizards or witches.
In addition to the heretical inquisition, so to speak. Sanelia's greatest fear is the magician.
Although there was not a trace of magic or elemental aura on the magician in this group, the small spells that were inadvertently cast by the gestures could not be faked in any way.
Spellless casting, instant casting, breath blocking......
There was no doubt that Sanelia had been able to determine that the one was called Edward. Alphonse's fellow must be an unfathomable and powerful magician - and it is.
It's just that although she has overestimated Sivi's strength as much as possible, she is still far from guessing Sivi's true strength.
That's why she made the wrong and outrageous decision to 'do it herself before Xiwei and his party did it, and to catch them all when they were caught off guard'.
――Dividing Line――
"Why did Mr. Edward suddenly stop talking?"
Looking at Sivi, who seemed to be in a daze, Bareth asked curiously.
Curran looked at Sivi and shook his head.
At this time, Sivi seemed to suddenly come back to his senses.
The corners of his mouth curled slightly, and then he spread his hands out and made an apologetic expression at Bareth.
"I'm sorry, Your Highness Bareth, I don't think we can help you deal with your chief guard, Raymond."
"Wait, Mr. Edward, this is not what we said we had promised!"
Byreth was taken aback and hurriedly said loudly, "As I said just now, Raymond has betrayed me and even brought us all to this town with murderous witches!" If you don't help me, I'm sure I'll die at his hands...... Wasn't it the same with the dinner before? If it weren't for Mr. Edward, you found out that my food was poisonous......"
Speaking of this, Bareth seemed to remember how dangerous he was at that time, and his whole person couldn't help but shudder.
"No, no, no, I think His Highness Bareth misunderstood me."
Looking at Bareth, who was in fear, Sivi first made a downward motion with both hands, signaling the other party to be calm.
"I have no intention of abandoning you, and until my master, Miss Rong'er, does not give up on you, I will definitely follow her decision and continue to protect and help you."
After speaking, he looked at Bareth with a puzzled expression, and then continued: "I mean, if His Excellency Raymond has turned into a corpse now, then we naturally don't need to continue to protect you from him, do we?" ”
"You're going to kill him?"
Bareth frowned.
"No, I'm a pacifist." Sivi's face was kind.
Bareth had a look of eating horse manure - there was nothing more surreal than a demonic sorcerer calling himself a pacifist.
"In fact, while we were still chatting here, your Lord Raymond, the chief of the guard, had already been killed."
Before Sivi could finish speaking, the ceiling of the room they were in suddenly collapsed, and a creature about three people in size with a pair of wings on its back fell into the room along with the fragments of the ceiling.
This is a moth wing demon, belonging to the abyss demon, the crusade level is level 18, although there is a separate inclusion in the "Demon Catalog", but it is actually a subspecies of war demons, but it is more bloodthirsty and likes to kill, and can be immune to most of the magic below the four rings, so it also has the title of mage killer.
At this moment, the moth-winged demon was shaking its huge head, scanning the three people present with bright red eyes, as if it was hesitating who to start first...... (To be continued......)
PS: Happy New Year everyone~
