"How so?" Karen. Gerd frowned, "I don't believe in evil anymore!" ”

"Huh—" He brandished his dagger and slashed at the corpse.

However, the corpse was unscathed, and the tough armor didn't even leave a trace!

"Hehe......" the man in black grinned, "you want to manipulate my corpse?" Dream on! ”

"I'm going to burn you alive!"

"Boom!" A strange gray mist gushed out of the black-clothed man's body, enveloping Cullen in an instant. Gerd.

In an instant, black smoke billowed and drowned everything, and only two figures could be vaguely seen clashing in the black smoke.

"Hmph...... How dare you offend this holy envoy...... Look for death! ”

A low, hoarse voice wafted out of the black smoke, mixed with cold anger and murderous intent.

Gradually, the black smoke dissipated......

Karen. Gerd was covered in blood and lay on the ground, dying.

"Ho Ho ......"

"You...... Who are you?! "Karen. Gerd struggled to look up and stare at the man in black.

"Me? You can call me ......"

The man in black stretched out his dry tongue and licked the blood on the dagger, "Demon! ”

"Demons, Demon ?!!!"

Karen. Gerd's eyes widened, he coughed, blood flowed, and he almost fainted.

He never expected to meet the demons here.

"That's not right...... You're not a pure demon, you just have demon blood......"

Karen. Gerd quickly reacted, "The real demon doesn't need weapons at all, they only need to chant spells. ”

Demons are good at mental attacks, and they also don't need to use any weapons.

Their flesh is harder than steel, making them perfect for all kinds of weapons.

And although the man in black can mobilize black smoke, he obviously does not belong to the pure demon race.

"Since it's not a demon, why is there a demon bloodline?" Karen. Gerd was puzzled.

Unbeknownst to him, the man in black in front of him was a demon general named Balston.

This is a half-demon, a top knight who fell in a battle.

After his fall, his soul resides in an ancient corpse.

This corpse contains a strong sense of death and resentment, causing the corpse to turn into a zombie.

Not only that, but Balston's corpse also has a curse attached to it, which can devour souls and refine them into ghosts.

Because of the curse, Balston could not be reincarnated, and suffered daily torment.

He was waiting for his time to break the curse and break free from his shackles.

However, no matter how hard he tried, he was never able to break through this shackle.

"I want revenge! Avenge!!! ”

A powerful wave of resentment, like a volcanic eruption, swept through Balston's entire corpse.

Then, clouds of black smoke gathered from all sides, forming a hideous and ugly face.

The black smoke became thicker and thicker, gradually condensing into the phantom of a black-robed man.

"Roaring ——!"

Balston roared and roared, and the sound resounded through the night sky.

His soul was sealed in the depths of the corpse.

He longed for revenge countless times, but in the end he could only despair and never break the seal.

Until tonight......

Once again, his soul felt a strong sense of crisis.

Moreover, the sense of crisis is becoming more and more intense, which makes him uneasy and afraid!

He must leave as soon as possible!

"Bang-"

He slapped Cullen with one slap. Gerd's head then quickly escaped and rushed into the burial chamber at the end of the passage.

In the middle of the burial chamber, a huge coffin stood, with a huge sword blade stuck in the center of the coffin.

"Bang ——!"

The lid of the coffin flew away, revealing the pitch-black skeleton inside, with a glowing green glow burning in its eye sockets.

It slowly scrambled to its feet, staggered its arms, drew its blade, and slowly moved to the other end of the cavern.

……

On the other side, in the palace of the kingdom.

Karen. Gerd appears on top of the court's towers.

"Whew-"

The wind hunts, and the dark clouds weigh down the city.

"Oops! A thunderstorm is coming! ”

Karen. Gerd looked panicked: "I need to get out of here quickly!" Otherwise, I'll freeze to death! ”

Karen. Gerd was mortally wounded and lost his weapon.

If a thunderstorm comes, he can only become an outlaw.

"Whoa-la-"

Karen. Gerd dragged his ruined body and ran as hard as he could.

"Whew!"

Suddenly, there was a breaking sound in the cold north.

"Smack!" A stone fell on Karen. Gerd on his back.

Karen. Gerd shuddered and fell to the ground.

He turned his head with great difficulty, and saw a young girl in silver armor falling from the sky and stepping in front of him.

"Aha? Who are you?! "Karen. Gerd was frightened and hurriedly asked.

"Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you." Lorante said softly, "Tell me first, what is this place?" ”

"Here...... It is the royal capital of the Kingdom of Elavia, the town of Arks! ”

Karen. Gerd replied respectfully, in awe, "This was once the capital of the Ellan Empire, and now it has changed its surname to Bardia. ”

When Lorante heard this, her eyes flashed slightly: "Bardia? ”

Karen. Gerd looked at Lorant, and stopped talking.

"I know, you're worried that I'm going to be bad for you." Lorante bowed slightly, "Don't worry, I'm just here to practice." ”

"I'm targeting the corpse and don't want to get into trouble. So...... You're good to go. ”

"Uh...... Okay, I trust you. ”

Karen. Gerd breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly walked out.

It's just that when he walked to the door, he suddenly stopped, turned his head, and asked suspiciously, "Is Your Excellency a new student?" ”

"Hmm." Luo Lanting nodded, "I have just been in the royal capital for three days. ”

Karen. Gerd suddenly arched his hand and said, "My name is Karen. Gerd, a side branch of the Bardia family. ”

"Our family's main residence is in the White Moon Forest Manor on the west side of the Elavia Palace."

Lorante listened and frowned slightly.

She always felt ...... Karen. Gerd seemed to know himself.

However, Lorante didn't pay much attention to it.

"Let's go, I have something to ......," Lorante said indifferently.

Karen. Gerd was stunned, "Then I'll go." ”

"Uh-huh......" Loren nodded.

Karen. Gerd walked towards the door.

However, when he stepped out of one foot, there was a sharp pain in his ankle, as if he had stepped on something.

"Hisss hiss-"

A sharp snake roar suddenly sounded, which was terrifying.

Karen. When Gerd looked down, he saw a venomous snake the size of a wrist wrapped around his legs, teeth biting into the epidermis of his skin.

"What kind of snake is this?" Karen. Gerd was shocked, "How did it get in?" ”

He tried to shake off the snake.

However, the poisonous snake was wrapped around his leg, and he could not break free.

"Click!" The viper's mouth spits out venom and drips into Karen. Gerd's wound hurt him so much that he screamed.
