Chapter 9: The Demon King and the Moonlit Night Death
"Night, if you don't come out again, my master and I will die!"
Edward shouted, his voice echoing through the forest.
"Lord Demon King, you are still as spineless as ever. A seductive voice came.
The familiar scent wafted into Edward's nostrils, and he knew it was the body's scent peculiar to the night.
"Spineless, how can I, don't I look handsome?" retorted Edward.
"Oh, yes?" Night was indeed a little surprised...... "Night suddenly appeared out of nowhere, blocking Edward's side, staring coldly at a large group of soldiers in front of him, as if looking at a pile of dead bodies, "Night thought you would kneel on the ground and beg for mercy." ”
"Kneel, kneel on the ground and beg for mercy?"
"Yes, it's like facing a brave man. ”
"Well, it was an accident. Edward's face flushed.
"Oh, really?"
"Correction! I just surrendered to the brave, and I didn't kneel down at all!"
"Oh, Lord Demon, do you realize that you just said a very handsome line? 'Simple surrender', it's really handsome. ”
“......”
Edward was speechless.
Probably for the battle, the long flowing hair of the night was replaced with a cute ponytail tied diagonally at the side this time, and when he turned his head several times, he shaved Edward's face, and the itchy feeling made Edward almost can't help but hug her overnight and play with her soft hair.
Wait a minute...... Let's find a way to survive first.
Edward believed that there must be a way for the night.
"Night, where should we run? Use the portal scroll you used before? Hurry up, or we won't be able to run away when the ninth-order forbidden spell is chanted. ”
"Lord Demon King, please be brave, don't keep thinking about running away. ”
"Uh...... So what to do?"
"It would be nice to kill them all. ”
Night replied softly, as if to say something that was taken for granted, and the tone was gentle and terrible.
The color of her pupils began to change, as if a pale red dye had poured in, and the strange red pupils were chilling.
The heavy air in the forest was breathless, it was noon in the middle of summer, and the sun was still shining directly on Edward's body, but for some reason Edward didn't feel the slightest warmth, but was very cold, and the temperature around him was freezing until freezing.
This is the gentleness that the night understands......
She looked at the enemy in her way with disdain, raised her delicate little hand, and snapped her fingers lightly.
Syllable.
The crisp sound is like throwing a pebble into the center of a lake, stirring up a circle of water waves, rippling layer by layer.
The figure of the night suddenly disappeared in place, leaving only a black mist, and the next moment, it appeared beside each enemy at the same time, as if there were countless doppelgangers, and they waved the dagger in their hands at the same time, slashing the enemy's neck cleanly and mercilessly.
Edward suddenly remembered three words.
Moon Shadow Walk.
That's right, it's a night stunt, a dance step that can travel through time and space.
Puff puff.
A series of pipes burst sounded, and then, bright red blood gushed out like a spring, towards the sky, like a blooming rose, with the breeze sliding through the air in a beautiful arc, and finally spiraled down, dyeing the whole green meadow.
Human tragedy.
The majestic soldier was inexplicably turned into a dead body lying on the ground. Edward even sympathized with them somewhat.
Deal with the enemies in front of you, but the black-robed magicians behind them did not flinch because of this, they increased the speed of their chanting, and the next falling heaven and earth was about to take shape.
Night shook off the blood from the dagger and quietly closed his eyes.
Once again, the night suddenly disappeared in place, turning into a cloud of black mist, and the next second appeared among the black-robed magicians.
Moon Shadow Walk!
Even the killers who are not afraid of the sky and the earth feel the fear brought by the night at this moment. No matter how good the magicians are, they can only be reduced to lambs to be slaughtered when they are close to them, not to mention that they are now facing a powerful enemy who can travel through space - Night.
Puff puff.
A series of terrifying voices sounded, and those black-robed magicians didn't even have time to see the appearance of the night before they were ruthlessly taken away by death. They are the best killers, they are never afraid of sacrifice, they already know their fate when they kill the first person, but they are afraid that their death will not be clear!
One of the young magicians watched his companions fall one by one, and finally couldn't bear the tremendous mental pressure, tore his black robe, and howled loudly as he fled into the depths of the forest.
After running a few steps, he suddenly felt a terrible chill coming from his back, but he didn't dare to turn back at all, and still ran forward without his life.
However, the Grim Reaper did not let him go.
His pace slowed down, and the world in front of him began to spin for some reason, as if floating in the air. He saw himself farther and farther away from his body, Edward hiding in the grass, and the woman who looked like death.
He finally realized that his head had moved, and he whispered before he lost consciousness.
"What a beautiful ......"
Edward gently lowered Emilia in his arms and stepped out of the grass.
A few minutes ago, Edward was still worried about how to survive, but when night appeared, the situation took a hundred and eighty-degree turn.
With his silver-white hair rising and falling in the breeze, Edward didn't say a word, standing in the distance and watching the night dance. The beautiful woman disappeared into the void again and again, and reappeared again and again, her figure dancing and jumping throughout the forest, as if mocking the so-called gods, mocking the ignorance of man.
Shattered memories flooded back into his mind, and Edward remembered.
No one knew the girl's name, she was as poignant and unattainable as the moon: a dagger with a silver glow, the white moon, the ability to leap through time and space, a moon shadow step, a flawless beauty. She's a mage who can travel through time, a maid who only exists to fulfill the orders of the Demon King, and a cold-blooded killer who flashes in the moonlight.
So, she got her name.
Night.
Edward could no longer find a living person. The group of magicians didn't finish the spell until the end, and they all lay on the ground, out of breath. The fire elemental gathered in the air turned into a cloud of red mist and dissipated with the wind, even if it was a ninth-order forbidden spell, without the guidance of magic power, it could only turn into an ethereal cloud.
The enemy is destroyed!
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Edward wouldn't have believed that he had done it all by himself.
"Awesome!" Edward complimented sincerely.
The night still looked so beautiful and moving, the maid's skirt was not splashed with a drop of blood, and the pale red eyes began to fade, becoming as dark as the night sky. She frowned and walked towards Edward, like a maid trying to complain to her master that she was too tired from work.
"Lord Demon King, what about your powers?" asked Night, angrily, as if complaining that Edward hadn't told her the truth.
"It's gone. Edward shrugged.
"You have amnesia?"
"Hmm. How do you know?"
"Lord Demon King, this is what you said to the brave man personally. The night said calmly.
"You're following us?"
"Yes, the words which thou hast spoken to the brave men, all the words, have been heard by the night. ”
“......”
Edward didn't understand until now. It turned out that he often inexplicably smelled the body fragrance of the night was not an illusion, but because the night had been following them. If it weren't for the last moment, when he found the night hiding behind the stones and shouted for help, I am afraid that he would have been crowned with the title of "the previous demon king" by now, becoming a piece of history, and being spurned by thousands of demons.
All in all, they were in danger.
It's just that the incident is not over yet......
Edward suddenly remembered something strange.
