16. The Black Witch
Yourself, you must stop Mamun from destroying the portrait, although this is not necessary. It's not for the sake of the agreement with the witch, it's for the sake of Mammon himself.
Destroying the source of hatred will only breed greater hatred, and only by unraveling it can Mammun's anger be appeased.
Therefore, Mammon can't be allowed to do what he wants, even if he can't stop it for long......
No, I can't say such frustrating words now, for the sake of Ma Meng and for myself, I must stop her and exhaust all means. Rely on yourself, not trouble Lucifer and the others.
[It's so troublesome, can't you just kill Mamon? ใ
No, it's not!
Although Mammon is cunning, she still hides her sincerity in cunning. I don't know why......
So you can't do this kind of thing yourself.
This time, you're wrong.
Sensing the sound in her ears, Lilith clenched her fists.
This voice helped herself, but every time she said it, it was always inseparable from killing. So, this time you can't believe it.
[Don't you kill...... Hahaha, so what do you have left?]
Wouldn't it be nice if you could see what you had left? If you can tell me, you must be able to see it.
His strength is far less than that of Ma Meng, so it's good to be trapped for a while if he can be trapped for a while!
Thinking of this, Lilith condensed the magic in her hand and pointed it at the soles of Mammon's feet. Unlike his original self, it seems that since he summoned Asmon, some of the magic that he had learned but couldn't use had been able to be used slowly over time.
First, the condensed ice cubes gathered on the soles of Ma Meng's feet, and as he thought, the powerful Ma Meng knew that he was timid and weak, and he would definitely not care. So, take advantage of this opportunity.
After a river of ice was easily swept by Ma Meng, the real magic array hidden under the ice was also triggered by Ma Meng's actions.
The dark gray fluorescence instantly enveloped Mamon, unlike before, this time its power and time were obviously on a higher level.
Is it your own strength that has improved?
In that case, let's work harder.
As if she had an autonomous consciousness, when Lilith was just trying to get something to trap Mamon, a black spear appeared behind her.
Judging from the spotted feathers on the body of the gun, it was probably the same one used by Lucifer.
Was it Lucifer who helped herself, but she'd been sent that far away......
The pause didn't affect Mammon much, and soon her body was back in motion.
Gotta stop her!
Thinking of this, Lilith no longer hesitated, and tried to wave her hand forward.
As if they understood what they meant, the black spears spun around a few times before turning into meteors and smashing into Mammon's body.
There was no explosion effect, no tracking of anyone, and by the time Lilith blinked, the spears were already nailed to the ground. Although he didn't even touch Mamon's cold hair.
"Hey, Lilith, you're alright!"
Feeling a little strange, Mamun suddenly asked, "Are you ......?"
"Mammon...... Drop your weapon. Lilith only felt that her head was a little groggy now, most likely because of the sequelae of using a lot of magic, "Ruining the portrait is not a solution...... Sure enough, it's better to tell me......"
โ......โ
Mamon, who had been somewhat relieved, was immediately enraged by Lilith's words, gave up what he was going to say, and rushed towards Lilith.
The best way to win a duel with a magician, the best chance to win, is to approach her. However, this trick doesn't seem to work for Lilith.
For the first time, Mammon felt that something was wrong with Lilith, and it was clear that his speed, strength, and reaction were far superior to her.
The sword that Mamun swung towards Lilith's abdomen only made a slight friction sound against the air, but it was not only Lilith's phantom that appeared, but the current attached to it crawled down the blade towards Mammon's arm as the phantom was cut off, forcing her to drop the sword.
No, it's not enough, you can't lose until you destroy the portrait yourself. When the portrait is rotten, it doesn't matter if you apologize or get beaten, it's no problem!
"Lilith!
Already unarmed, Mamon ran towards Lilith with his fist, or in her subconscious, she didn't want to hurt Lilith. However, this time, what greeted her was not some phantom, nor was it some elemental magic, but a magic array.
A pitch-black magic array, on which countless characters swim like fish.
It's so familiar! This kind of thing, when you are in hell, you can see it almost every day.
This is the summoning array that the Demon King uses when he summons demons! There is no doubt that black magic is the purest form of black magic...... Why Lilith ......
Sensing the danger, Ma Meng hurriedly retreated, and at this moment, black figures suddenly burst out of the pitch-black circle. Crimson pupils, broken sharp corners, tall body......
Black goat. Creatures in Hell can only have a maximum of multiple servants, although they are of low intelligence and can only act on the orders of others. However, they are popular with demons because of their large numbers and strength. Although the attack method is also simple and crude, relying on the advantage of numbers and strength, it can still be a good means to delay or contain the opponent.
After all, no one wants to fight with a group of strong men who surround you and only beat people with their fists.
Sure enough, no, should I say lucky?
If there were some other demons emerging from these magic arrays, or the demons of the Seven Deadly Sins, then things would be really difficult.
A steady stream of black goats jumped out of the magic array, and Ma Meng, who was already aware of the black goat's behavior, jumped backwards and spread his wings and flew into the air.
Black goats can't fly, and this is their most fatal flaw, even more inexplicable than their poor intelligence. Mamun only had to fly in the sky to watch the black goats that missed their target jump and jump like rabbits on the ground.
In the sky, Mamun directly ignored these black goats, which could only act as barricades, and drew his black longbow and aimed at the portrait. Just as the pitch-black arrows had already hit the bowstring, Mammon sensed danger behind him.
No, not just behind you, but also in front of you, all around, all of them!
Suddenly, a dense circle appeared in the hall, encircling Mammon like a hemisphere.
Hey, that's not something Lilith can do anymore! just being able to set up a magic circle in the air shouldn't be something that a magician like Lilith can do.
It's still a black magic array, looking at this posture, is it going to spew something out of it?
...... Even so, I can't let go of that guy, the guy who turned himself into a demon!
"Mammon, put down your arms......" Lilith's expression was a little uncomfortable, and there was a lot of surprise at what she saw.
Obviously this is what she casts herself, why should she be surprised?
That's right, Pandora, that guy, that witch is behind her. It must have been something that gave Lilith some ulterior power!
However, even the Demon King can't stop himself from taking revenge.
Mamun didn't speak, but in this pitch-black magic array, he aimed the black longbow at the portrait.
Now that I think about it, when I became a demon, wasn't I just thinking about how to get revenge? Bazak was just one of them. And a lot of them, a lot of people.
If you don't take back what those guys are holding in their hands and give them out by yourself, how suspicious you are here casually.
He is Mamon, the greedy Mamuon.
It's no longer the Mariana who goes around giving alms to others!
The pitch-black electricity shot out from the magic array, which had already been wrapped into a hemisphere of magic array, sending out a force that made Ma Meng have nowhere to avoid the current and shot towards her, and in this pitch black, a pitch-black arrow feather broke through the comfort, dragging its tail and paddling towards the portrait.
ใPoofใ
Mammon, who endured the pain and barely got out of the circle, saw not the arrow feathers nailed to the portrait, but Lilith, who was staggering against the portrait with an arrow stuck in her shoulder.
...... How could it be......
"Hey, Lilith, ...... you"
"That's enough, Mammon......"
