Chapter Ninety-Four: Staying in the Titan Tower
"Let me summarize, sixteen years ago, your mother was deceived by the Blood Church and became the wife of the Three Palace Demons, and then they gave birth to you, you are a hybrid of humans and demons?"
Yuri thought as he touched his chin.
"You just said that your mother met the priests of Azaras after she escaped from the Blood Church, what is that?"
"Azaras is a pocket dimension located outside the universe, inhabited by many good mages who took in my mother and me, and where my magic was learned."
Raven tilted his head slightly, nostalgic.
"It was once a veritable shrine, with blue-green skies and crimson clouds, streets paved with solid marble, and buildings adorned with pillars of pure gold."
"You just said ever?"
Super Boy's eyes moved, and he interjected.
Hearing this, Raven's eyes darkened a lot, "Four years ago, Sannomiya found the location of Azaras, and he used his evil power to corrupt Azaras's reality. ”
"Its emerald green sky was dyed with a burning red, the air was filled with a pungent smell of sulfur, the earth of Azaras shook endlessly, and rumbled, and everyone who dared to resist the three houses was mercilessly killed, and their souls were forever bound to the flames and cages of hell, unable to get the rest they deserved, peace turned to fear, life to death......"
Azaras, a once thriving magical dimension, is now left with ruins and a handful of wandering souls.
After listening to Raven's words, Yuri and the others suddenly looked solemn, and just a few words from Raven described a chilling scene.
If what the raven said was true, then the power of the Three Palace Demons was beyond their imagination.
"If the Three Palaces Demon can invade Azaras, then why can't he invade Earth directly?"
Yuri asked, having had this doubt since he heard that Sannomiya needed ravens to come to Earth.
Raven thought for a while and explained: "Although Azaras is a powerful magical dimension, it is only a small dimensional space outside the universe, and it is not difficult for the three palaces to invade there after finding the location, but to invade the universe, they need a passage that can accommodate the powerful body of the three palace demons, that is, I have inherited the power of the three palaces in my body." ”
Yuri nodded knowingly, does it seem that there is some existence that has set up some kind of barrier for the universe, so that powerful demons like the Three Palace Demons cannot truly invade the universe?
"According to what you said earlier, Azaras has been destroyed by the Three Palaces Demon, so how did you escape? How did you come to Earth? ”
At this time, Robin suddenly asked.
"Sannomiya wanted me to work for him and become a passage to this universe, so he let me live, and I can't even cut myself off, because if I die, my soul will go to hell, and then I will be at the mercy of Sannomiya."
"I lived alone in the deserted Azaras for a long time, and I didn't come here with teleportation magic until three months ago, and I know the location of the Earth because my mother brought me back a few times when I was a child."
At this point, the raven buried his head deep in his lap and choked up, "I...... I'm sorry, I know I shouldn't have come to Earth, if I stayed in Azaras, the Three Houses Demon would never have been able to descend on this universe, it was I who brought disaster to this world! But...... I really can't stand the endless desolation and dead silence anymore, and I can still hear the wails of dead souls every night, I ...... I was so lonely. ”
Yuri couldn't help but be embarrassed, if it were him, he wouldn't be able to stand it for a day in that kind of ghost place, what world can't be destroyed, no one knows about dedicating his life to the world, he doesn't even have a good reputation, and he can't commit suicide if he lives better than he dies.
However, the sixteen-year-old girl Raven has lived alone for three years and nine months, what kind of pressure is this, you must know that she was only twelve years old four years ago!
Now when she mentioned this matter, her first reaction turned out to be to blame herself for the fact that her arrival might attract the third house and harm the world, instead of wasting all her good years in that destroyed dimension.
What sixteen-year-old girl would have such an awareness? This is simply the Virgin of Nature, and Joan of Arc is nothing more than that, right?
No matter how hard-hearted Yuri is, he can't help but feel pity for this girl with a complicated background.
"Raven, you don't have to blame yourself for this, although you are a half-blood, the earth is still your homeland and home. There are teenage Titans, there is the Justice League, and no matter what kind of enemy arises, we will face it together! ”
Yuri said from the bottom of his heart, "If you are the passage through which the Three Palace Demons descend to Earth, then we will let this passage never be opened!" ”
The super boy stood up indignantly and said angrily, "It's not your fault, it's the fault of the demon called Sannomiya!" ”
"Yuri is right, even if you stay in Azaras, the Three Palaces Demon will definitely find another way to invade Earth, and if Batman has taught me anything, it is to never have only one plan, and this applies to the enemy as well."
Tim wasn't as excited as Connor, and calmly analyzed.
"Raven, it's too dangerous for you to continue to wander around, it's better to stay in the Titan Tower, the Titans will launch an investigation into the Blood Church, and with your help we can easily destroy those transformed demons."
Yuri grabbed his hair and suggested to Raven.
"Although it is not as miserable as your experience, I used to live like a homeless man, and it was really uncomfortable, and staying in the Titan Tower can at least ensure your life."
"Stay in ...... Over here? ”
The raven raised his head slightly, and a warmth flowed through his heart.
"Don't you want to?"
"No, I do...... But I ......"
"It's enough to be willing, don't worry so much now."
Yuri turned to look at Superboy and Robin.
"What do you think?"
"I agree with Yuri's proposal." The zealous Connor immediately voted.
"No objection, the existence of the Blood Church is a serious hidden danger that must be eradicated, and ravens are an indispensable force."
Tim said calmly.
"Then it's only Starfire and Cassie...... Yuri mused.
"Don't worry, I promise they'll agree." Connor patted his chest in reckless terms.
"That's it, Raven, you get some rest first, we still have something to do."
With that, Yuri walked out of the room with Superboy and Robin.
The three of them walked to the Titan Hall together.
"Do you think the raven is credible?"
Yuri's expression suddenly became serious, and he asked the two of them.
"I've analyzed every micro-expression of her, and it doesn't look like she's lying." Robin replied.
"I think she's telling the truth." Connor said with a look of course.
"That means we're on the same page."
Yuri nodded, and then said, "Report the matter to the Tianyan Society." ”
