In the woods on the eastern outskirts of the town, the duel in the wind is over

The victor stubbornly propped up his already bruised body and rose from a pool of blood, and for this victory he paid a heavy price, not only did he lose his hearing, but also the skin on his body was not intact, although what he needed most at this time was rest, he knew that he could not rest yet, and he had to go and give his enemy the final fatal blow

He staggered to his enemy's side, drew the sword that had been stabbed in his chest, and held it high to cut off her head

Wait a minute, don't kill me yet, okay He saw the enemy's lips moving, and although his ears could not hear any sound, including anything she said, he who had learned lip language could clearly see what she was saying

I didn't expect that the 'Messenger of Death', one of the 'Five Heavenly Kings', would actually beg me for mercy, he snorted coldly and said disdainfully

Don't be self-absorbed, I know I'm going to die today, and that's what she says, but I have some secrets that I have to tell you before I die

Hmph, you're trying to trick me and then chanting a spell to kill me, and he doesn't believe her

Whatever you think, I'm talking about the truth of the matter, if you don't want to save the boy you call 'Owen', you can cut down with a sword right now, face his blade, she has no fear, she has already died once, will she still be afraid of death

Sure enough, her words worked, and he paused on the spot

Well, I'll trust you for now, and he's focused all his attention on her eyes, staring at the shape of her mouth, and if I notice that your mouth is forming a note that I don't understand, my sword will shut you up right away

The banshee began to tell her secrets

Joika ran all the way to her three companions who had just broken free from the chains of darkness

Joika: Your ear: Sophia, who was standing on Joica's right side, noticed a trail of blood running from his ear, but it was clear that Joika wasn't looking at her head-on and didn't hear her cry

In a dark, deserted town, the cold wind blows through the small church that has become a ruin, and there is a suffocating silence on the battlefield, all waiting for the truth that Joyka has to say

Joyka summed up what Latik had said to him before he died

That's why Brother Owen has become a bulos and is our enemy, and Joyka's words have undoubtedly caused a great shock to Ray

As long as it wasn't Owen's wishes, Cassius smiled relievedly, and he said what all the friends present thought, who would want to be the enemy of his friends

Irving...... Sophia was happy and sad at the same time, Julian was right, Owen didn't go down the path of evil, but now his body was ...... She had mixed feelings, and she actually shed tears of excitement

How the partners reacted, Joyka didn't know what his friends were saying, he couldn't hear what his partners were saying, he just stared at Julian standing on the throne of bones and said, "So you can't kill him, and when you kill Buyos, Owen will die too."

Surprisingly, Julian did not show a shocked expression like the others when he heard the news, on the contrary, his expression was very calm, and he smiled at Joyka and said: I already knew what you said

Now that you know why you have to hurt the killer, although she is far away, Joika, who has excellent eyesight, saw what he said from Julian's mouth, Joika's body couldn't help but shock, you are really willing to kill Owen, isn't Owen your good friend, Julian

I'm afraid it's not Julian himself who is standing in front of you, Sophia took Joika's right arm with one hand and said in a deep tone

I can't hear you at all what you're talking about, Joyka looks at Sophia, you say it again, I'll look at the lips, and that's how I understood what the banshee said to me

His ears were sure to surprise Sophia with a soft sigh

I mean, Julian in front of you isn't really Julian himself, and I should have noticed that Sophia was repeating what she had just said to Joyka in a coque manner

Not only Joey, Carrenlei, and Cassius were also puzzled by Sophia's words

You say that Julian is not the real Julian, so who could it be?

I'm afraid it will be him, Sophia smiled wryly and told her companions her guess

My name is Latik Nightrain

Years ago, the Orcs lured vampires into the Elven Forest, destroyed my homeland, slaughtered my compatriots, and my sister and I answered the call of the Elven Council and the Archon to join in the revenge of the Orcs, I am an elven magician who has reached the level of a star mage, and in the land of the Orcs, my magic gave the Orcs the most brutal punishment, but in the last battle, a stone axe thrown from a bipedal wyvern hovering in the sky took my life at the age of 426

Death is so light, I don't want to, I don't want to—at least I want to see my sister Latice again, and with this unfulfilled wish, I turn into a lonely ghost, wandering aimlessly across the battlefield

Then I met him, a terrible man in a black metal mask, who frantically collected corpses and greedily plundered souls, I saw him seal one corpse after another into an alien dimension, he sucked one soul after another into strange magic weapons, I understood that he was a necromancer who played with death, and in order to see my sister again, I didn't want to die, I wanted to be resurrected, and with this obsession, I called out to that man again and again - and finally he noticed me, more precisely, he noticed the magic pulsation in the depths of my soul

He asked me, "Do you really want to be resurrected so much?" and I said yes

He asked again: You are willing to be my subordinate and obey me forever, I promise

And he said, "I am only using your magical powers, and I will agree."

He warned: The price of betraying me is very heavy and I am silent

So the pact between me and him was formed

He took my corpse out of that space, he fixed my soul to the corpse, made me a banshee, made me his five kings, but he imprisoned my mana, confiscated my staff, and only gave me the terrible ability to scream, let me slaughter for him, and make me do all the things I hated in my life, he said it was a test of my loyalty, and I said it was okay, as long as I was resurrected, I could see my sister again

Later I learned that his name was Buyos, as one of the three giants of the undead, a close confidant of the Lich King Canovin, he followed his master for more than ten centuries, and was in charge of the only prison on the Isle of the Dead, Hades, and his status on the island was second only to his master;

I also know that in some hidden corner of the underworld, there is an aura of death that exudes an incompatible breath of death, and I have heard that there lives a mysterious man who is not a necromancer, I don't know why this man is there, I only know that Buyos covets some kind of great power about him, but he is helpless against him

Half a year ago, a human boy suddenly rushed out of that corner, he claimed to be a student of the mysterious man, and he actually had the audacity to challenge Buyos, unexpectedly, the boy's fist pierced Buyos's heart, and what he didn't expect was that the lost Buyos actually put a black hood on the boy's head, this is a magic soul transfer, the boy's body was occupied by the dove, but the boy sealed half of Buyos's power before losing consciousness, and made it immobilized, because of this, he forced Buyos to launch a rebellion against the Lich King in advance, and ended in failure

Kobuyos escaped, leading the remnants to the Glorious Continent to collect corpses and souls in an attempt to make a comeback

I don't want to help him, I just want to see my sister, but this obsession has tormented my soul and I won't be able to rest after death, young human, thank you for freeing me, and now I ask you for only one thing, if you see my sister Latice Nightrain, you must give it to her, and then tell her......

Do you mean that the soul of Julian's body is now controlled by him, Cassius raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked

Yes, I should have guessed it a long time ago before I nodded to Sophia, and not only that, but he was also the voice that came directly into my head and helped us many times and guided us here

Really, Ray said, and the four of them looked at Julian in unison, who was noncommittal, silent

By this time, however, the enemy, who had been battered by the heavy losses, had recovered his breath

A gargoyle flew up to Julian's back, spreading its claws and lunging at Julian's vest

Owen is careful behind his back.
