Chapter 5: Contradictory Hearts

The fire burned all night, and by the time Sylvia arrived, it had been scorched within a hundred meters, and all she could see was corpses and ashes and charcoal all she could see.

"Oh no!" Sylvia knelt among the corpses and ashes, tears streaming down her face, people she had known before.

He leaned over to examine the corpses, and in addition to the elves, he also saw the corpses of several low-level demons, such as small inferior demons, small demons, sheep's head demons, and trolls. It was a battle between elves and demons, and it was clear that the demons started first, and they won.

"I'm sorry. Darkness returned to Sylvia's side and patted her on the shoulder. "This is the sin of our demons, and I have to apologize to you. ”

"It's all because of you!" Sylvia turned her head to glare at him, her fists kept hitting him, "Because of you, my parents died in battle, and now it's you again, and my friends are also dead, they're still so young...... Why don't you die!" Sylvia threw another punch, but just halfway through the punch, Sylvia suddenly rolled her eyes and passed out.

Gloomy was taken aback by her again, and this was the second time

"Hey, hey, are you alright? Don't die, I didn't do anything. She scrambled to slap Sylvia in the face. "Wake up......"

When Sylvia woke up again, it was raining heavily, and she was lying in a cave with a few huge leaves spread underneath her. There is a small bonfire in the open space next to it, providing light and heat to the entire cave.

The evil Shadow Fiend was sitting against the cave wall, and the Timberwolves were confronting him opposite. This was originally the nest of the Timberwolf family, but this uninvited guest with red eyes and a dangerous aura took over the place, and if it weren't for the elf he carried on his back, the Timberwolf would have attacked him a long time ago.

When the three four-month-old wolves saw Sylvia awake and thought no one had noticed, they crawled over and arched her, licking Sylvia's hands and face with their tongues, making Sylvia's face drool. As nature's darlings, elves have always been able to gain the friendship of animals.

"Little ones, don't make a fuss. Sylvia sat up from the ground and reached out and patted the wolves' shaggy heads. The three wolf cubs happily turned their bellies over and asked Sylvia to rub them one by one, which was their way of expressing their intimacy.

"Are you awake?" looked at Sylvia, who was playing with the little wolves, and her red eyes were a little relaxed. "I almost thought you were dead. ”

"I'm not dead, I guess I didn't get your wish. Sylvia looked at him coldly. "You Shadow Demon neither kill me nor let me go, what the hell do you want?"

"If you want to go, you can go now, I won't stop you. Gloom said. "I have no intention of being your enemy, I came out of the dark abyss just to travel the continent and see the famous landscapes mentioned in the book with my own eyes. I've taken care of you all day, and now I'm going to sleep for a while, and if you don't leave, then don't bother me. ”

"You!" Sylvia wanted to say something, but the Shadow Fiend didn't give her the face at all, and closed her eyes and said nothing.

Sylvia stared at him for a moment through gritted teeth, then went over to tease a few wolf cubs. She wanted to see what the hell this shadow demon was up to.

The wolf cubs whined and circled around Sylvia, who scratched this one's chin and touched the other's head from time to time, and the timberwolves were not worried at all.

The wolf cubs, who had been playing for a while, quickly became exhausted, they were only four months old, and they were still sleepy. One by one, they fell asleep beside Sylvia, and even their movements were exactly the same, which was very cute.

With his eyes closed, he seemed to be asleep, breathing steadily and evenly.

"Do you want to kill him at this time?" the thought crossed Sylvia's mind. The difficulty of killing high-level demons is obvious to all, and only the top powerhouses of each class and the angel clansmen above the four wings can compete with them. Right now, this young Shadow Demon is at his most relaxed, and the Shadow Demon's physical strength is not as high as that of the Fire Demon, similar to that of a succubus, with Sylvia's strength and the enchanted short sword, it is enough to break through the skin of the Shadow Demon's body and pierce his heart - now is the best time to kill him, and the next time there may not be such a good chance.

The enchanted dagger hangs right around his waist. Sylvia gripped the hilt of her sword, and the cold touch on the hilt reminded her that this was a dangerous matter and that she had to kill it with one blow.

"Phewβ€”I can do it, Sylvia, you can. Sylvia encouraged herself in her heart. The enchanted short sword slowly came out of its sheath, and the delicate bark scabbard did not make a sound, and on this magic weapon, the secret magic talisman civilization representing "sharpness", "armor breaking", and "cutting" was uncertain. This sword is exclusive to Sylvia, and it is better than the ordinary elven enchanted dagger, and it is where Sylvia's confidence lies in killing Dark.

Slowly approaching the sleeping Shadow Fiend, Sylvia raised her enchanted dagger and aimed the tip of her sword at Dark's chest, and then she just had to stick it down.

"Goddess of Life, please forgive me for killing. Sylvia said silently in her heart, the faces of her dead kindred, the ruins of the Akiba tribe, but also the dark scarlet eyes. From last night to now, the shadow demon did not do anything to hurt her in the slightest, but ran with her all night, and finally sent her into a cave to take care of her unconscious, which almost subverted Sylvia's perception of demons.

Sylvia was surprised to find that she couldn't do it.

"Sylvia, he's a demon, you're an elf, and it's your responsibility to kill him. ”

"Sylvia, the demon is the servant of destruction, the servant of death, you are the guardian of nature, the servant of life, your hostile relationship is predestined, killing him is what you should do!"

Sylvia kept admonishing herself, gritting her teeth and trying to stab her sword down, but her hand was like she didn't obey the command, and she never followed her brain's commands.

The Timberwolves looked at Sylvia in bewilderment, wondering why she was so conflicted.

"Sylvia, kill him, Sylvia!" tears welled up in the elven girl's eyes, and her hands trembled, but she couldn't stab them.

Sylvia gave up.

"Forget it, let the goddess of nature punish me. Sylvia whispered that she couldn't go against her heart. It was a terrible fact that she didn't want to kill this shadow demon, but she had to admit it. Dejectedly, she withdrew her enchanted dagger and returned to lying on the pile of leaves.

The rain outside was still so heavy, and the little wolves slept peacefully beside the elf girl.

In a few inconspicuous corners, the shadows slowly dissipated......
