Chapter Twenty-Seven: First Encounter with a Demon

The location of the first point marked by the Karl Tracking Technique is in a giant cave southwest of the village of Diru.

The group parked their horses a little further away from their destination, leaving two of her men to look after the horses' luggage, while the rest headed for the cave.

Alph whispered to Vincent, not knowing what a horrible sight the cave would be.

Surprisingly, the moss and weeds outside the cave showed signs of being carefully cleaned, the exposed rocks were painted with red paint in all sorts of bizarre, painting-like hieroglyphs, and the entrance to the cave was surrounded by unlit torches and a faint scent of bergamot mixed with pine.

"Anyone living here?" Vincent was surprised.

"And it's quite tasteful. Teacher Luna sniffed carefully at the aroma coming from the cave.

The sound of artiodactyl hooves mixed with human footsteps was heard from inside the cave, accompanied by the conversation of a man and a woman, "We have a guest that we must welcome." "Morton, I hope they're not bad guys!"

Mi Lan inserted the dagger back into her leg bag, and everyone gave up their alert state, only Carl directly condensed a thunder-based dragon fury magic in his hand.

"Carl!" Vincent reminded in a low voice, "Milan has already hinted that there is no need to be vigilant!"

Carl gave me a look of convincing.

Alver's focus is all on Carl's magic, Dragon Fury, which is not low in difficulty and power in intermediary magic, and as an "extremely good" student in school, he has never tried to skillfully release medium-to-high magic.

Perhaps the harsh living environment is the best teacher, Carl is the same age as himself, but he seems to be able to do anything.

A man and a woman came out of the cave, and the first thing that caught everyone's eye was a tall and well-proportioned man, dressed in a well-cut black dress, with a white rose pinned to his breast pocket, and shorts down to the knees, with white lace cuffs, and an elegant and handsome man, with long black hair neatly tied into braids, and pale skin. He had ram's horns on his head, and his eyes were black and hollow, with red pupils like goats in the middle of them, and black hooves under his knees.

The woman is a common human being, the height is similar to that of Ms. Milan, and her appearance is very ordinary, but the touching thing is a pair of big smart eyes with gray-green pupils, long linen hair braided into braids, a white cotton shirt, a long skirt of brown coarse cloth, no shoes, a basket in her hand, and the blue is full of all kinds of fruits.

The man saw Elph and the others, especially his eyes fell on Carl's hand condensed with magic, and quickly blocked the woman behind him.

"I'm sorry everyone, I just want to live here in peace with my master," the man's tone was polite, but his eyes were always on Carl, his limbs were obviously beginning to go into guard, and his muscles were tense, "If there is any misunderstanding, I hope to at least give each other a chance to have a conversation to clear up the misunderstanding." ”

The woman timidly hid behind the man, tears beginning to well-up in her big eyes.

"We are from the Weird Old Man's School, and the head of Diru Village was involved in kidnapping and human trafficking, and we followed him and didn't want to disturb the lives of the two of them. Lady Milan smiled her trademark gentle smile, "Maybe our team has detected some powerful species...... Forgive me for the wording, but that's exactly what it is. ”

The man was still wary of Carl, and Elph walked up to Carl, grabbed Carl's wrist and shook his head.

Carl disarmed the magic condensation and took out the hair that corresponded to the marker, "It's almost the same color as this lady's hair," Carl shrugged, "She's been kidnapped by the village chief." ”

The woman suddenly cried, and the man took her in his arms, bent down and gently brushed away her tears, "Don't cry, it's over." ”

Vincent looked at the pair of people who seemed to be in love, and his eyes couldn't help but drift to Lady Milan, Alfer pulled Vincent's sleeve, coughed lightly, and then said to the man and woman: "We have no ill will, but this lady still has your ......"

"She won't leave here, and her master's wish is to be pampered and live the rest of her life safely, even if she lives alone. The man bowed to the crowd, "Briefly introduce myself, my name is Morton, I am a demon, and my master's name is Yadi, and he is an ordinary human. The man looked up slightly, still looking at Carl, and continued, "After she was tormented and prayed to God to no avail, I sensed her wishes. The man straightened up, and the standard social smile seemed to take on a sarcastic tone.

Karl raised his eyebrows, shrugged his shoulders at Elver, and said "I'm not going to attack him" with his lips.

"It seems that the legendary demon does exist...... We won't bother you two anymore," Ms. Milan replied with a graceful salute, "I wish you both their wishes." ”

Milan stood up and drew a nice × at the location of the cave on the map, "Let's go, let's go to the next point." ”

"Aren't people saved?" asked Miss Luna.

"I have no confidence in taking his master from the demon who made the contract. Milan's face sank, "I hope that after that girl dies, the soul will not regret the original decision." ”
