In the White Forest Inn, the bedroom where she had lived for ten years, the light in front of her was fleeting, and Evelyn was once again pulled back into the blood-red world with an invisible force field.

"Konotissa".

The name of the potion that Eren had sought from the wandering merchant. This potion does have extremely hypnotic powers, and the effect varies depending on the deep fear of the user, the deeper the fear, the stronger the effect.

Evelyn's inner world was far deeper than Eren had ever known, and the dark memories that hadn't erased for ten years were now disintegrating her last will.

The air near the blood pool was always filled with a strong smell of blood type, and the hot and cold air proved that this space was anything but unusual.

It's a space that's not ordinary.

The Afterglow Forest has long been known as the Forbidden Forest because it keeps explorers coming and going.

With Kayla at its center, her blood magic enchantment has always enveloped this vast forest. From the moment they set foot in this land, the foresters have been affected by Kayla's magical powers. As they progressed deeper and deeper into the forest, the people of the forest began to lose their senses until they were completely under the control of the Lord of the Blood Pool.

Kayla doesn't usually choose to show her true bloodpool territory, and she will let the ancient monsters of the forest devour the future. Apparently, Evelyn's presence piqued Kayla's interest from the start, and the evil witch never wasted so much time on a prey that was worthless to her.

"How do you gain power?"

After a long time, Evelyn took a deep breath, but her voice was still a little shaky.

"Oh, you've figured it out! It's simple, and it only costs a small price. ”

Kayla looked a little excited. In normal times, Evelyn would have thought that this was a nervous maniac, but in this case, Kayla's madness only gave her more doubts.

"At what cost?" Evelyn was mentally prepared for it, as long as the other party was not conditional on Claude, she could accept it.

"Give me your soul and be my slave. Kayla said, "I don't think it's a hard choice. ”

"What?" Evelyn couldn't understand what Kayla meant. Elves are immortal, and the separation of the soul from the body means death, but if they die, how can this power be used?

"It sounds ridiculous. Evelyn added.

"No, not now. Your body and soul will belong to me, but not now, but after you die. Kayla held little Claude in her arms and paced up to Evelyn, continuing, "The source of this power is blood. Every time you use this power, it consumes your life. When your life is exhausted, then everything about you will belong to me. ”

"It's ...... Blood magic?"

"Yes. You can think of it as blood magic. I know you have a similar ability, although I don't know how you learned it. ”

Evelyn looked hesitant.

She did know the magic of blood, and she used it to escape when she resisted the pursuit of the four Silver Wings.

Urging with essence blood to increase the power of magic, it is listed as a powerful force in the dark magic system in the elven race. Long-term use of this type of magic will make the user bloodthirsty and murderous, and in ancient texts, this type of magic is even listed as a forbidden category.

In addition, Kayla's reference to "blood magic" has a more vicious corrosive power than the blood magic she is familiar with, and the so-called "slave" is enough to prove that this kind of magic is not of the kind that she knows about it.

"I ...... What will it become?"

Evelyn lowered her head, not daring to look Kayla in the eye. She was already breaking out in a cold sweat, and her fear turned into a twitch of nerves, which was reflected in her body language.

"Now I don't know. The people who have gained this power have changed into different ways, but most of those people are different from you, so even if I tell you, I don't have much reference value. Kayla said freely, unconcerned about those things, "What I can tell you is that in the end, you will completely give up everything elves and become a blood ghost. ”

"Blood...... Charm?"

"It's those 'things'. ”

Kayla glanced in a direction with a wicked grin, and Evelyn followed her gaze to see that it was the red monster that had attacked her earlier.

Although she had already made up her mind, Evelyn was an elf after all, and she had a deep aversion to filth. At this moment, when she thinks of what she has finally become, Evelyn's heart is mixed.

Evelyn shook her head resolutely, and a strand of hair slipped down in front of her, but it was not the red she was used to......

"Dreams?"

Evelyn hesitated.

"I thought you had made up your mind. For your soul, I have also prepared a delicate container. ”

Kayla feigned helplessness and used her right hand to pull out a large old box from the air, which contained hundreds of transparent containers, some of which contained mysterious gases of different colors, and some of which were still empty.

"These ...... What is ......?"

Evelyn narrowed her eyes and stared at the vessel in Kayla's hand. She began to have a splitting headache, her chest seemed to be slid by a sharp knife, and her vision was a little blurry.

"All the souls of those who have previously traded power from me. But as you can see, they're not pure enough to be my favorite collectible. And yours, must be better than these. Kayla gently stroked Evelyn's hair, "Don't let me down, loyal young elf. ”

"I'm ......" Evelyn's eyes were already moist. Although countless situations have been envisaged, this moment is one of the most difficult to accept.

"No, it's not true! it's not true!" Evelyn almost snarled.

Although she realized that what she was experiencing now was not happening, she also reluctantly discovered that this was her innermost memory, and these things had really happened.

"Don't be sad, they're all begging me to empower them, and it's incomprehensible that you're like that......" Kayla said, "think of the dragon knight and his dragons who slaughtered the city, think of the power of the feared prophet, think of the golden horses of the Atlantis army...... How is this poor little creature going to survive in those harsh conditions?"

Evelyn tried her best to control her emotions, but the tears didn't deceive anyone, and they flowed down her scarred cheeks. There are so many powers that the Origin Realm can destroy her, and a dragon knight can do it easily. What's more, there is more than one dragon knight on this eastern continent. No one in the entire city of Atlantis knew of the existence of Prince Acklin's heir, and Evelyn wasn't even sure what the other races on the continent would think of the half-elves, half-Digans.

Not long ago, the Prophet of Nightglow Valley had found her without even warning, and for some reason he didn't use force, but the mere fact of controlling her whereabouts was enough for Evelyn to fear.

Although the light of Cana appeals to conscience, everything in the Eastern Continent is still based on absolute power. Coupled with the death of King Thorton, who had pursued the policy of interracial alliances, it was unclear what Karl would do. Regardless of whether they will choose to help, neither the Lonellans nor the elves can unilaterally protect this infant little Eklin.

"Good. What should I do. Evelyn knew that even if she came a hundred more times, she would still make that choice.

As for that kid, he's grown up to be a somewhat rebellious teenager now.

"Give me your hand. ”

Evelyn followed Kayla's instructions and held out her right hand. Kayla's nails ran across her wrists, and blood gushed out with a light tap. Kayla pulled out a delicate transparent container out of thin air, and with her guidance, Evelyn's blood gushed into the bottle.

Kayla smiled with satisfaction as pale blue blood filled the small half of the bottle, and continued, "Next, you just need to enter the pool of blood in front of you, and then just be patient." When it's done, you naturally know. ”

"Good. ”

Evelyn had made up her mind and resolutely crawled towards the pool of blood in front of her. The pain caused by the friction between the body and the ground echoed the deep scars in the heart, but these were not enough to stop a brave man who had already made up his mind. Princess Angelina's entrustment has now begun, and the protection of little Claude has become the only faith in her heart, and she will also fulfill her promise from the beginning to the end, until death.

Blood slowly engulfed her scarred body, red steam obscuring her eyes. At the beginning of her entry into the blood pool, she had given up everything she was as an elf, and everything was about to change.

Gradually, Evelyn's eyes were left with only a patch of blood red, and blood poured into her eyes, ears, nose, mouth, lower body, and even wounds. Her internal organs began to burn, and the pain spread to every cell in her body. She wailed silently, struggling.

Inside the container in Kayla's hand, elven blue blood began to boil, emitting a faint light, transforming from liquid to gas. The woman holding the transparent container stared at the plaything in her hand, excited enough to speak.

Gradually, the blue shimmer began to be eroded by the red, turning into a bright red gas, which spread wantonly in the bottle.

The female elf in the pool of blood, every wound on her body began to heal at a speed that was visible to the naked eye. She spread her limbs open, her muscles tense. Countless bubbles escaped from the pores of her body, floated to the surface of the water and evaporated, forming a thick blue vapor over the pool of blood.

The pool of blood grew in concentration until Kayla, who was standing on the shore, could no longer see the movement in the pool, leaving only a patch of red and blackened blood.

In the territory of the blood pool, countless blood charms shook wildly, surrounding this blood pool, writhing their limbs with extremely strange movements. Kayla looked at the container containing Evelyn's blood, smiling wildly.....

And the female elf who was lying peacefully in the pool of blood, she closed her eyes slightly and smiled.

Yes, even if I go back to that time many times, the final choice is still the way it is now.
