-297- The Witch

The woman is convex and backward, very charming, but it's not the one that Ai-chan likes, but it must be considered superior for a woman who does this kind of profession.

Beric hugged her affectionately, a smile on his lips, and seemed to be saying something between his lips and teeth...... Ai-chan was curious about what the men and women who were about to start working would say before they started, so she got closer, and finally heard something:

"What you said last time, the way to pull my brother down, what should I do next?"

Then the young lady spoke, and her voice had the feeling of a mature royal sister, but there seemed to be other ingredients in it, which seemed to make people unconsciously immerse themselves in her person and what she said:

"It's not easy for people to charm Viscount Barnett to do that kind of stupid thing, your brother must be suspicious, and he will use the nobles below more carefully, and the next difficulty will undoubtedly be greater, and people will have to take risks, don't you say it?"

Beric gradually restrained his smile, and his tone became cold:

"I remember I was paid for a stage not long ago, right?"

"It's true, but one stage is a stage, and now the next one begins, isn't it? I have to give some margin first~Young Master~~"

Peric seemed to be disgusted with the woman, even though she was so physically intimate, it seemed to be just a cover-up.

"Is it okay to pay for meat?" Beric sneered.

His intention to insult the woman couldn't be more obvious, but the bewitching woman didn't get angry, but slipped off the dress that was already not much fabric a little more, without concealing it: "If you want to do it with the witch, I won't refuse~"

Beric swallowed, but not covetous, but fearful.

The people of the whole continent know that they must not sleep with witches, not only the flesh will begin to decay rapidly from the younger brother, but even the soul may not escape from their clutches and become a tool for them to use, Beric naturally will not attack this femme fatale because of greed for beauty and revenge, such a roasted seafood market is more or less, there is no need to rush for a while.

"Yes, the deposit will be given to you, but you also have to make sure that you will succeed."

The woman seemed to have achieved her goal, prostrate on Beric's chest, drew a circle with her index finger, and smiled:

"Of course, the royal family of Phalosi is the guarantor of our credibility."

They seemed to end the conversation, stood up and left the drunken basement in different directions, Ai-chan finally looked at the back of the woman who was leaving with cat steps, and there was an indescribable disgust in her heart.

"Sister Ling'er's task is important!"

Ai-chan used this to dispel her desire to knife the guy, and quickly caught up with Berik.

After this guy returned to the mansion, he called his concubine without saying a word, and pressed it on the bed to hit it hard, Ai-chan knew that this must not be thinking about his wife, but simply venting his evil fire.

- The guy who is dominated by the lower body, it seems that the children of the top nobles are not all so shrewd.

This is what Ai-chan said about Buric as a person.

In the next three days, the contact between him and the witch was basically transmitted through letters, not because the network was inconvenient, but because he knew that the operator of this thing was Yin Leina's family, and he knew whether they would eavesdrop, or whether the letters were safe.

And then I never went out, but the entertainment that should be there will not be left behind.

Writing all this down in a small notebook, Ai-chan felt that it was almost time and returned to the hotel where Ling'er was staying, and she happened to be in the room now.

"Ai-chan is here, is the intelligence gathered?"

"Uh-huh!" Ai-chan obediently handed the small book to Ling'er, and her little eyes were full of anticipation.

Ling'er smiled and touched Ai-chan's head, then looked through the notebook, it was fine at first, but the more she looked, the more her brows frowned, and at the same time, there were many thoughts in her head, and she murmured in a low voice:

"Plotting Wood...... The figure of the witch...... The royal family of the Phalosi Empire...... Could it be that the royal family there has been completely infiltrated by witches?! ”

Thinking of this, the matter of entrustment is small.

Imagine, if the Fallosi Empire next door has even fallen to the ruling layer of the country, and it has not been discovered, it is actually equivalent to the destruction of the country, then the Frante Empire as a neighbor will not be comfortable, there will be blood clans and armies on the surface, and secretly it will be attacked and infiltrated by witches, which can be described as internal and external troubles, if they are not dealt with well, they will be the next to destroy the country.

"After killing Beric, you have to tell those who should know about it......"

"Sister Ling'er, witch, what kind of existence is it?"

Just when Ling'er was worried, Ai-chan suddenly asked.

She's just a sword spirit, and she's a stranger to everything in the world.

"Witch...... It is a group of people who have been maliciously corrupted, and it is said that in ancient times, they were still on the human side, but at some point, this group of women only turned against them like a blood clan. Unknown malice bewitched everyone and gave them strange powers, and thus evolved into the current Witch Organization. ”

"Beric listened to the witch's words, even if we don't kill and die, the defenders of the kingdom army, who were enough to resist the assassination, can't stop the master from being infiltrated, let's go, it's time to do something, it's too late to change."

While Ai-chan is collecting Burik's whereabouts, Ling'er is also collecting all kinds of information, such as the structure of Burlik's mansion, the composition of security personnel, etc., even one of the strongest killers has to be foolproof before making a move, this is a qualified killer.

Ling'er changed into a night suit, counted her equipment, and waited in her room until nightfall.

"Ai-chan, stay in the room obediently and don't run around, my sister will be back soon."

Ling'er didn't think that Ai-chan had strong combat power, even though she was Yin Leina's sister's sword spirit.

Ai-chan was still looking forward to carrying out the assassination mission with Ling'er, but when she heard this, her little face suddenly collapsed:

"No! I'm going to go along! ”

"No," Ling'er looked serious: "It's not a joke, stay in the room obediently, huh." ”

Ling'er's attitude is very resolute, she brings Ai-chan out to live, but she can't put her in danger.

In the end, Ai-chan still couldn't beat Ling'er, so she could only stay in the room and watch Ling'er leave through the window.

But Ai-chan is not the master of her duty, she decided to stay in place for a while, to prevent Ling'er from killing her back and arresting her, it turns out that Ai-chan's decision is correct, Ling'er went and returned, just to see that Ai-chan is not honest, and saw her lying on the bed reading picture books without love, Ling'er was completely relieved and officially went to the Beric mansion.

It was now about ten o'clock in the evening, most of the servants had rested, and only a few rooms in the mansion were still lit with warm lights.

With her knowledge of the structure of the mansion and the residences of each individual, Ling'er quickly made out the house where Buric was, the third floor and the largest room on the side.

Climbing up the wall with bare hands, because the curtain could barely see everything inside, Ling'er simply found a room with the window open, turned into a shadow and sneaked in silently, through the crack in the door to the corridor, and then into Berik's room, hiding in the shadow of the corner, because the light would make her shadow invisible.

In the room, Beric did not speak, but hunched over his desk, not knowing what he was doing.

Ling'er poked her head out slightly, and looked around by the way, there were only two of them in the whole room, and Beric had not yet sensed the danger coming, it was an excellent opportunity for assassination!

Ling'er turned the shadow into a throwing knife and aimed it at the major artery in Burik's neck, his eyes as sharp as a falcon, and his hands as steady as a doctor holding a scalpel.

Aim, Capacity, Launch! Coherent!

The Shadow Throwing Knife has almost no quality and is extremely fast, according to this trend, Beric will definitely die, but Ling'er will not easily draw conclusions until the other party's death is completely confirmed, so she quietly waits for a worthless life to die.

The knife pierced the air, splattering blood in all directions, and half of it was inserted into Berlik's carotid artery at an extremely precise angle, causing it to bleed and deprive it of oxygen.

I saw him clutching his neck in pain, struggling to "cough and cough" a few times before falling to the table, and the blood gradually pooled into a pool of blood.

Seeing this, Ling'er appeared from the shadows and slowly approached Perik's corpse, but when she was less than two steps away from the corpse, the entire corpse and the blood that flowed out of it turned to ashes and scattered, as if this person had never appeared in this world!

"The Witch Cult's Substitute Puppet!? Hit the trick! ”

Ling'er has also dealt with witches during her assassination career, and knows some of their methods, and this death puppet is one of them: witches will use their unique means to enchant a doll, and then bind the soul of the protector to the soul of the substitute, and when the protector is injured or near death, it will be triggered, and sacrifice the life and soul of the substitute to save the target's life, that is, you can wait for rescue by holding your last breath, and at the same time, the two will also swap places.

In Ling'er's eyes, the position where Beric was originally sitting turned into a substitute man in tattered slave clothes in the next second, and the real Beric had been transferred to the place where the substitute was originally staying.

After Ling'er realized that Beric was protected by the witch, she wanted to break the window and flee immediately, but as soon as she came to the window, a sinister enchantment enveloped the room, and the people outside could not enter for the time being, and the people inside had to spend some effort to get out.

A pitch-black portal appeared in the center of the room, and a woman slowly walked out, her eyes like a hunter grasping her prey:

"Little fish has taken the bait, a killer, use shadows, oh yes oh! It turned out to be the owner of the shadow whistle, disrespectful and disrespectful. ”

The means used by the other party and the aura emitted have already written the words "I am a witch" on his face:

"Witch...... Isn't Fallosi's cake enough to satisfy your appetites? ”

The woman just spread her hands and shrugged her shoulders:

"The secular royal family seems to be high, but in fact it is like a dam hollowed out by an anthill, and a little tide can poke a big hole, such a low-hanging fruit, there is no reason not to do it."

"Frante doesn't like Fallosi as much of an artist."

"So what? As long as you are in a high position, there will always be evil thoughts...... Ah yes, I don't need to talk so much nonsense with you. ”

As soon as the words fell, the woman summoned a huge scythe and rushed towards Ling'er, and the corners of her mouth rose wildly:

"If you can bring back the head of the Shadow Whistle Leader along the way, it will definitely be a big gain!"

Ling'er just smiled disdainfully: "Let's see if you have the ability!" ”

When the two clashed, the guards stationed in the mansion also sensed the extremely disgusting aura that belonged to the witch, and the alarm bell suddenly rang, and teams of men and horses rushed towards Master Perik's room, but the other witches had already laid an ambush on their way, and after just a confrontation, the escort team was reduced by a lot of people, and they were forced to camp step by step, buying time for the women in the room.

Bite! Dingdingding......

The shadow blade rubbed against the sickle, and the two figures quickly flashed and staggered.

Sparks burst out from the curved blade, and the shadow blade was constantly wearing, and the shadow power on Ling'er's body was constantly replenishing into it.

As the battle continued, Ling'er gradually realized that something was wrong, the opponent's physical strength was like a bottomless pit, and he didn't see a trace of exhaustion until now, and on the other hand, even though the Shadow Holy Grail was constantly providing him with shadow power, he still couldn't make ends meet, just like ...... It's like being sucked away by the other party!

The woman grinned:

"Did you find out? But it's too late, my scythe, it's a natural restraint to deal with people like you who use energy to attack, keep struggling, sooner or later you will run out of strength or energy and be sucked dry by me. ”

And so it was!

But even if you guess it now, it won't help, Ling'er clenched her silver teeth, if it goes on like this, you can only use your hole cards to forcibly get out!

But in that case, she may not even be able to maintain her human appearance...... Do you want to ...... What should I do?

Ling'er's heart is extremely entangled, there are still too many beautiful things waiting for her in the world, and making a decision now means giving up everything.

"Sister...... I'm sorry. ”

The black lines started from the heart and climbed up Ling'er's cheeks, spreading like worms......

Completely fused with the Holy Grail, she will become a real shadow, let alone escape, she can even kill this witch on the spot, but the price, Ling'er dare not imagine.

- But there's no way around it now, can it?

"Goodbye, everyone."

The fusion was about to be completed, and the lines of the merger were about to spread throughout the body, when at this moment, a loud noise was heard outside, and the enchantment shook, and a spiderweb-like crack appeared in the wall.

In the next second, the enchantment that the woman had spent a lot of effort to arrange shattered on the spot.

When hope appeared, Ling'er immediately stopped merging, jumped down to the window, and fled the mansion without looking back.

"Who is Your Excellency? Why bother us? ”

In the room, the witch did not chase Ling'er, but confronted the uninvited guest who had just arrived at this time - a little girl, but carrying a large knife that did not fit her body shape at all.

The pale flames that burned around her made the witch fearful.

"Pale Holy Flame?!"

The woman exclaimed, and then seemed to understand something:

"It turns out that the person who succeeded the orthodox Seraphic authority not long ago was you......"
