Cali chased the breath of Demos all the way to the waters of Polaka. Behind a huge reef, she found the two targets.

Kareta closed her eyes and fell on the sun's warm, soft sand, her breath as thin as a gossamer, threatening to fade at any moment.

Demos undressed her, and Cali arrived, having just summoned the Sword of Destruction to slice the skin of his left arm, and without hesitation, he channeled his spell to place the bleeding left arm against Karete's wound. As she lay dying, he poured blood with his own warmth into her body, watering her dried-up life.

After some effort, Kareta's breath of life gradually became stronger, although she was still asleep, but Demos was relieved, he slowly accepted the spell, and stared at her for a long time that she would no longer make any movements, as if he was afraid that it would disturb her sleep.

Demos, once again saved Carret's life—

Callidon was shocked, and his face was full of confusion.

"As the ruler of the Dark Clan, you did not hesitate to save a dying soul with your sacred blood? Demos, her choice was not yours at all, what did you do for her-"

Demos remained silent, as if disdainful of answering her questions, or confronting her.

Cali was even more uneasy, but this feeling of uneasiness was not new. Kali remembers very well that the first night she had detained Carette in the Dark Temple, when she faced Demos as she walked out of the dormitory, her sad eyes and lonely back, she felt the same thing in her heart. Perhaps, the feeling at that time was a danger signal -

All that is reflected in front of him is the tenderness poured out by Demos, and the favored object is the girl who makes Cali hate him to the extreme, and Cali is like a mountain of swords and a sea of fire and suffering. Finally, an unquenchable evil desire took control of her body and drove her nervously mad.

"Disappear from my eyes, disappear from Demos's eyes—"

Cali slashed at his axe in a hysterical howl, not caring who he was about to attack or whether the blow would hurt Demos.

Demos raised his sword in the air, and immediately a sharp sword aura poured out from the sword body of "Destruction", and the evil purple aura turned into an arc with the sword blade as the center, and the circumference expanded thousands of miles in an instant, and the violent vibration rushed up Kali's body, rolling her in the air for a few whirls before throwing her down. It can be said that in this process, Demos did not wave his hand to make any moves, and only resisted Kali's attack with his sword energy.

Cali shuddered from the soft sand, like an old man in the last years, all his vitality and youth were shattered by the blow of Demos. There was a fishy heat in her chest, and she spurted a mouthful of blood onto the sand and gravel on the spot. It seems that the internal injuries suffered by him are not light.

Her heart was cold to a certain extent, and the smile on her face seemed to be frozen, without a trace of warmth.

"I really didn't expect that you would point the sword peak of 'destruction' at me and at your sister... Have you forgotten who forced you to leave Olympus? You are now bent on protecting her and the woman who persecuted you in the first place!"

"I'm not going to let Kareta slip up. I told you before that she was the key to the connection with the Athena Gem. If Kareta is gone, the gem will be locked in a crystal ball forever, and no god can hope to have the power of the goddess of war. ”

"What?"

Kali was startled, and then the expression on his face was no longer stiff, and his eyes, which had faded from pain, were lit up again by Demos's words.

"Be clear!"

"Originally, before the Athena gem was sealed in the crystal ball and brought out from the holy mountain Olympus, a god put a seal on the crystal ball with a spell just in case, and the condition for unlocking the seal was Carret's love for me......"

"How is this possible!"

Before Demos could finish speaking, she denied it repeatedly:

"It's impossible for her to fall in love with you, it's a fantasy, it's a big joke... This ......"

Suddenly, her attitude changed, as if she had figured out something big.

"So, you've been trying your best to pursue her...... In order for her to fall in love with you, at the time, it was ultimately to break the seal and take out the Athena Gem, right?"

Demos didn't answer immediately, his brow moved involuntarily, frowning even tighter than before.

"It was because of the secret of the seal that I carried the Athena gem into the sea alone after Posseton appeared. I understand that as long as you change back to Carette, as long as Poseidon only has the gem in his hand, he will not be able to break the seal at all, and he will not be able to get the power of the gem, which is why I have repeatedly prevented you from attacking Carette, and even more so at the cost of his life to fight Poseidon to save her. If Kareta is gone, there will be no more unsealing techniques in the world, and the seal of the crystal ball will become a death seal. ”

After explaining everything, Demos fell into a state of concentration for a moment, and the brilliance of the night sky like the stars in the black pupils seemed to be obscured by a floating dark cloud at this moment, and became no longer clear and distinct.

In front of Cali's two cold purple eyes, his unusual behavior was laid bare at a glance, and she suddenly let out a few bitter laughs, because he was sad and heartbroken for him.

"Why do I still see only hesitation in your eyes at this time, and you are still confused? You ask yourself, in the process of deliberately pursuing Karete, you only played with her on the spot, without revealing the slightest trace of true feelings? Are you sure that the crystal ball you just handed her was really just to break the seal?"

“...... All I know is that if she truly loves me, the seal of the crystal ball will be lifted, and that's enough...... You can bring the Athena Gem back to the Dark Temple, and I want to stay in the human realm for some time. ”

In his cold reply, Demos removed his confused gaze and no longer easily connected with Cali. Her vast voice sounded in her ears, revealing infinite resentment and sorrow without concealment.

"You didn't answer my question directly. Demos, it seems that you should really be quiet, and think about the future and hope of the Dark Clan. I will continue to wait in the Dark Temple, when your heart is no longer hesitant and confused, a thousand years have passed, why should I wait for this life!"

Demos watched in silence as Cali retreated invisibly before slowly closing his eyes, exhausted from the lack of energy and burnout that was more painful than the physical fatigue at the end of a fierce gladiatorial fight.

Turning to look at Karet, he saw that the pink blood had hung on both of her cheeks, and her breathing had an even rhythm in her sleep, and her solemn expression was slightly relieved on his handsome face.

Perhaps this gem did not bring light and hope to the Dark Clan, but it contributed to the encounter between you and me in this life. Carret, I am bringing it to you today in the hope that you will break the seal with your two hands, because in this way, you will prove the love you have for me......

——

José sat on the couch in the lobby of the Grand Bregatne and looked stupidly in anticipation.

Four past eleven p.m. —

Tao took out his mobile phone to light up the screen, and he didn't feel a little anxious when he saw the time display.

Carreta has never been late for a date, could it be that she is not feeling well, or something has happened again-

José speculated, nervous and skillfully dialed Karet's cellphone.

No one answered, so he dialed it twice, and it was still the same. With a dull sigh of relief, he walked briskly to the front desk.

"How do you need help, sir?" asked Jose with a smile on a young receptionist.

"I'm a friend of the 601 tenant, please transfer the switchboard to her room for me, thank you. ”

"You're looking for Miss Lachio? I'm sorry sir, but she's already out in the morning. ”

"What? it can't be, I have an appointment with her, I must have made a mistake. ”

As he said this, José secretly beat a drum in his heart, and a premonition of extreme danger was born.

"Yes, sir, she was a long-term guest of our hotel, and she came to the front desk to store her room card, which was a procedure I handled for her. If you insist, though, I can let the switchboard work for you. ”

The reception lady was polite to Jose and always had a gentle smile on her face.

"No, thank you. ”

Jose knew that nothing had gone wrong with the receptionist, and that if Carreta had been in his room, he would have come out on time. What is it that matters enough for her to release her boyfriend's pigeons?

After thinking uneasily for a few seconds, José called Carreta again, only to hear the voice prompt "No answer, call back later", and then he took the phone away from his ear. At this time, his mood was obviously a little irritable.

As soon as he walked out of the revolving door of the hotel with his face pulled, his mobile phone suddenly rang, and Jose hurriedly looked at the screen, it was really Kareta calling.

Dead girl, where did you go? You don't want to surprise me and buy some fresh gifts from me, are you? It's a false alarm anyway, and I'll see you spank when we meet—

While muttering in his heart, Jose happily received the call, and opened his mouth to ask impatiently:

"Where are you now, little ghost?"

"Excuse me sir, I'm the manager of the café at Terra Maris Hotel, because a customer left her bag and mobile phone, and we are waiting for the owner to retrieve it, so are you her friend?"

The voice of a middle-aged man on the other end of the phone was kind and kind in a way that was an obvious service industry cliché.

"Oh...... Oh yes, what's wrong?"

"With all due respect, sir, can you tell me who you are the owner of this phone?"

The man on the other end of the line was more cautious and did not reply to Jose immediately.

“...... I'm her fiancé, and I made an appointment with my fiancée to choose a wedding dress at the bridal shop, but now I can't find her. ”

Sure enough, something happened! Carette went out to the Terra Maris Hotel in the morning, what was she going to do, who was she going to meet or to relax alone?
