Chapter 31: The Poisonous Betrayal (1)

Demos and Carette entered the villa, and Noah, a close attendant, came up to greet them.

He folded his hands in front of him in a very regular manner, waiting in front of the two masters, and his handsome face deliberately suppressed a little tired complexion.

"King, princess, you are back. ”

Seeing that his pair of masters had reconciled, Noah was sincerely relieved, smiled and greeted the two of them, and looked at Demos with kind eyes, and then looked at Carreta beside him.

"Thank you, Noah. ”

"I'm sorry to worry you about me. ”

After greeting Noah, Demos and Carette went upstairs to take a simple shower and change their clothes. After a short rest, I returned to the living room on the first floor and sat on the sofa to listen to Noah's report on the work of the past two days.

Noah first briefly described the preparations for the opening ceremony of the European Arts Festival, which he handled on his behalf during the absence of Demos.

He then reported to his masters about the anomaly on the other side.

Yesterday was originally a fixed day when several attendants of the dimension came to the villa of the human world to do housework.

Every time, those people would arrive at ten o'clock in the morning. Normally, Noah waits at this end of the passage after opening the passage of the dimension.

But yesterday was an exception, he waited for a long time, but no one arrived, which made Noah feel a little suspicious.

Because it was not clear when his master, the Dark God, would return, and the opening of the Humanity Arts Festival was imminent, Noah still had a lot of urgent matters to deal with, so he simply couldn't get out and go to the temple to find someone.

Noah thinks that it must have been because of the conflict between the master and Kali because of the princess's affairs, and the fierce goddess only deliberately fought in anger and refused to send anyone over.

After waiting for another day, Noah had just finished the official affairs of the art festival and was about to go back to the temple to find out, when the master rushed back with the princess.

The perception of Cali is different from that of the close attendant Noah, after all, he has worked with her since the age of the gods, and his understanding and evaluation of her will always be more profound and intuitive than his own attendant.

Demos knew that with Cali's high-mindedness and ruthless methods, she would completely break face for his "unbelievable" suffering, and her revenge method should not be as simple as breaking off her obedience to his villa.

In order to avoid a long night's sleep, Demos and Carette decided to leave immediately and go to the Dark Temple to retrieve the Athena Gem.

The faithful Noah insisted on following his master.

When it comes to the Athena Gem, the opinion of the master, the god of darkness and Kali, can never be unanimous.

Noah knew that this trip back to the dimension to retrieve the gem would definitely not go smoothly.

As a servant of the dark god, in addition to taking care of the master's life, he must also protect the master's safety at all times.

Therefore, Noah decided to follow Demos to another dimension.

At the moment of deployment, the three of them set off again.

Opening the passage of the dimension, Demos, Carreta and Noah enter the space of another dimension.

In the gloomy time and space, only the ghost-like wind howls and moans from time to time, flowing and swirling in the secluded space day and day, and finally blowing into the deepest depths of endless darkness.

At this time, perhaps because of this gloomy environment, or because the things about to be done were too tricky, the hearts of the three masters and servants became extremely disturbed.

Speeding up their way, the three of them finally reached the Dark Temple.

There was not a single guard on either side of the gate, and there was an eerie silence in sight.

"King, princess, I'll lead the way!"

Noah sensed that something was wrong, strode in front of the two masters, and was the first to push open the heavy door.

"Squeak" -

Amid the clumsy sound of the door opening, Demos and Carette looked at each other with solemn expressions, and followed Noah side by side into the temple.

The dimly lit place was silent, the air seemed to stand still, and a kind of oppressive force that seemed to weigh a thousand gold made people feel nervous.

Demos didn't see the servants who had rushed to greet him, and he couldn't even see the black-clad guards on either side of the hallway.

The masonry floor beneath his feet was littered with viscous liquid, and a thick smell of blood came to his nose, silently announcing to him that something unusual had quietly happened in the temple—

Cali, that ambitious and vicious woman, still can't help but have a temperament, did she strike first-

Thinking so in his heart, Demos couldn't help but clench his teeth heavily, and his face was bruised with anger.

A strong aura of divine power came from far ahead, as if it was deliberately leading the way for the three intruders.

The master of the breath is the goddess of blood, Kali!

Demos endured his anger and ordered Noah in front of him to speed up his pace, and the three of them rushed to the source of the breath, the atrium on the first floor of the Dark Temple.

In the center of the 100-meter-square expanse is the golden chair, a symbol of the highest authority, which once belonged to the god of darkness, Demos.

Today, the deity sitting on that seat is Kali.

She was shrouded in a black sexy tight-waisted low-cut dress, her hair was full of wavy and charming green silk, and there was a curse and resentment swirling in her luxurious and arrogant momentum.

As the master and servant of Demos hurried into the central hall, Cali was reclining on a golden chair, holding a sterling silver knife and fork, enjoying the food on the bone china plate on the small square table in front of him. On the left and right sides of the golden chair, there were several burly black-clothed guards.

"You're back, would you like to sit down and have something to eat?"

Cali said a faint word to the visitors, slipped off a small piece of meat with a knife, and lazily raised his eyes to look at the three standing in front of her, his bewitching smile revealing a heavy murderous intent.

Immediately, with a bend of her left wrist, she picked up the chopped piece of meat on her plate with a fork and put it in her mouth and chewed it gently.

The flickering of the candle flame added a dazzling glow to the glittering splendor of the jeweled beads she had wrapped around her neck and wrist, making the fluctuating brilliance seem a little fierce.

"Goddess Kali, what do you mean by that!"

Without waiting for Demos to speak first, Noah, who was standing next to him, took the lead in questioning Cali in the right chair.

With her black fine clothes, and her behavior of occupying the throne, in any case, it has constituted the crime of disobedience and usurpation of power.

"Hmph, you mad dog, you will only bark in front of the owner, I will let you die ugly sooner or later!"

Kali smiled, staring at Noah and swallowing the food in his mouth unhurriedly before he said in a hard voice, and Amethyst's eyes flashed with a bloodthirsty fierce light between the insults.

"Sister, did you kill the attendants in the temple?"

Demos stood in the middle of the three masters and servants, and stopped directly in front of Cali from the moment he entered the central hall, frowning two sword eyebrows and looking directly at Cali who was carried away.

She had just scolded Noah when Demos angrily asked her.

There was no reply, and Cali only sneered at Demos with contempt.

In fact, there was no need for any answer, he knew her intentions, and she had been waiting for him!

"That's what you want in the end, right? I wasn't mistaken, you're an ambitious power-seeker!"

Demos looked around at the weaponized guards around Cali, then at the golden chair that had once belonged to him, and finally returned his sharp gaze to Cali's bewitching face.

"But why do you kill so many minions! Those are all loyal subordinates who have been following you and me since the gods, and even if they are reincarnated, they have not forgotten their mission, they have not forgotten to return to the Dark Temple, to return to our loyal subordinates—"

As the emotions gradually became agitated, Demos's voice slowly widened, and finally turned into a broken roar, which reverberated through the vast space of the atrium.

No matter how sad he is, it will be useless now.

His anger and his grief not only did not shake Cali in the slightest, but filled her heart with a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction.

Looking at Demos, Kaliyan raised his lips and let out a sinister smirk, and then replied faintly without paying attention:

"The so-called once a son of heaven and a courtier, now that the Dark Temple is about to change its king, what's wrong with getting rid of some eye-catching guys?"

Demos's expression suddenly darkened, and the furrow between his eyebrows sank even deeper. He sighed lightly and shook his head, his tone sad:

"You and I have always been the most tacit partners, and we have supported each other for several lifetimes. However, it is only now that I realize that you have become such a stranger, and it is my fault. Sister, I have left you in the dimension for too long, and at last your heart has been infected by its darkness, hardened, and become unkind......"

"Shut up—"

Cali was furious, throwing his knife and fork and slamming the square table in front of him.

"Do you think you are still the king of the Dark Clan? You are still qualified to teach me? Look at your current appearance, frustrated, lonely, and living like a lost dog, all of which have disgraced the Dark Clan, and you are not worthy of being the king of the Dark Clan! I said from the moment you turned around in the Pavilion that day, if you leave me, I promise to make you regret it forever!"

"In that case, I surrender the reins of the Alternate Dimension and the Dark Temple as you wish. Kali, from now on you are the next god of darkness......"

Demos looked at Cali on the golden chair with a calm expression, and his resolute declaration shocked everyone present. Noah and Carreta turned their heads to look at Demos in unison, their faces panicked and confused.

Cali grimaced, narrowing his eyes silently, waiting for Demos to spit out his last words. She believed that the latter sentence, which he deliberately cut off, would be crucial.

"In exchange, I'm taking the Athena Gem!"

Demos's words finally came out of Cali's lips in anticipation. At the same time, his piercing eyes were already firmly against Cali, and he was locked into a silent but tight confrontation with her.

Cali let out a vicious cold shudder.

"You, what qualifications do you have to negotiate with me!"

In the midst of her loud shouts, two sturdy male attendants joined forces to carry a half-human-high knurled stone urn and entered the atrium of the temple through the side door behind the right side of Cali's body.

They were followed by a long procession of guards, male and female servants of all ages, all bound with their arms chained upside down, escorted to Cali by several tall, black-clad guards with expressionless faces.

The three masters and servants of Demos were suddenly shocked, as if they were being held hostage, and their minds could no longer be stabilized.

Everything was caught off guard, and all the plans and deployments of the three of them before were disrupted by this sudden turn of events-

The one with the most shocked expression was Carret.

As the male attendant entered the atrium from the side, her eyes were firmly absorbed by the large urn they carried between their hands.

What was in that urn was her maid in charge, Ade!
