The River of Doraki, this place Red had heard of before.

In various fantasy stories, there are often plots about river gods, the most famous of which are the stories of the golden axe and the silver axe - and the core element of these stories is that there will be a river god in the river who can make people's wishes come true.

And Doraki is the goblin who embodies this legend.

Red could see what seemed to be a familiar petite figure above the river, and he squinted his eyes and stood up from the riverbank.

"Spirit Star?"

"Meow~"

Yes, in the middle of the Doraki River, a little blue cat is struggling in the water, and that is the first companion that Red meets after crossing.

However, Red is also well aware that this is an illusion.

The Spirit Star is naturally not in this Smell Zone, and it is not weak enough to fall into the water and wait for others to save it, which is obviously the effect of Dorage.

Create what your target desires the most, then lure them into the river.

Now that it was an illusion, what Red had to do was simple.

Thump!

In the next second, Red leapt into the river of Doraki.

"Red! Can't get in, there's-"

The moment he entered the water, Red seemed to hear either Gareth or Custer.

Well, I guess it's also an auditory hallucination, an illusion created by the River of Doraki.

Anyway, Red had already decided to take the initiative to enter the illusion of the Doraci River.

The essence of the river of Doraki is that Dorachi, the elven lord of the river, uses his power and residual elven realm to trick other elves or humans into drowning for desire, and the reason why it does so is because ......

There is no reason.

It stands to reason that once a goblin dies, their bodies will turn into natural substances such as trees, dirt, stones, etc., and their souls will be reincarnated through regeneration.

But here in the goblin country, there are occasionally some powerful goblins who have died, but for some reason they have not been replaced, but have a strong grudge to forcibly stay in this world, and generally speaking, the root of this resentment is the purpose of the goblins.

As mentioned before, elves are different from humans, they must have a clear purpose to maintain their existence, and Doraki is one of them, but Red knows that its purpose is somewhat special.

It is because it is influenced by the isotopes of pan-human history that it loses its purpose.

As mentioned earlier, Doraci is a goblin with a wide history of pan-human history, and it stands to reason that he will fulfill the wishes of others, or be devoured by those blinded by greed, and this is the basis of his existence.

But there is a problem in the British Elf Country, there are no real humans here, and the goblin's wish cannot be fulfilled, so this is doomed to Doraki since its birth, unable to complete its own meaning of existence, this sense of dislocation caused Dorachi's resentment, and made her the elf dead.

This situation is actually not uncommon, for example, the little goblin Habert Lot, whom Red met for the first time just now, is a goblin who was born to help the bride, but there is no family relationship in the goblin country, so there is no so-called bride, which is likely to make her lose her mind and become a thug.

However, it seems that Habert Lott of this world has also untied his own knot, so let's not mention it for the time being, and Red's goal now is Dorage in front of him.

To be precise, it was Dorage, who had already "devoured" Red.

Obviously entering the water, Red did not feel cold or suffocated, and when he opened his eyes again, the surroundings were no longer in the water.

It's not even a goblin country.

Towering tall buildings, eerie Gothic dripping stone beasts on the facades, and most striking is the conspicuous bat lamp mark in the night sky.

"Gotham? I see..... Is this still the place my heart desires? No, I should say ......"

Red took a deep breath, and he turned his head to look behind him as he was facing the floor-to-ceiling glass window overlooking the night view of Gotham.

There stood a burly figure wrapped in a black cloak.

"Hahahaha—interesting, in that case, let's help each other, Doraki."

Red covered his face and looked up and laughed wildly, he hadn't tried to be so excited in a long time.

"I'm here to help you accomplish your goals, to overdo you...... And you use the illusion to fulfill my wishes, let me vent to my heart's content! ”

And at this moment, the "Batman" in front of him didn't say a word, but threw a sharp batarang at Red as soon as his cloak was raised.

Bang dang!

However, Red easily raised his hand and used his weapon to block the batrang.

And what he was holding in his hand turned out to be the weapon he had used for a long time in Gotham, the Knell's Promethium Katana.

"I didn't expect it to be what I was looking forward to the most...... In addition to living a stable life with the spirit star, it is to have a fair fight with you. ”

Bang, bang!!

Red wields a katana, without the energy of the red light or the power of flesh, he is simply enjoying the incapable white-knuckle battle with Batman.

"In that case, I'm going to have to give you a good beating, damn Bruce Wayne!"

——

"Red...... There won't be any problems. ”

Maeve's steel chariot finally returned to the range of Gloucester, and everyone's abilities were suppressed to the level of LV1 under the effect of Jasmine's fairy realm.

Even so, Custer turned his head in the direction of the Doraki River from time to time, worriedly.

"It's going to be fine, we're going to trust Lord Red...... He must have his reasons for doing this, and he must not worry about him absolutely, absolutely ......"

Gareth didn't know if she was convincing Custer or convincing herself, but she could see that she had crumpled the skirt of her dress, and it seemed that she was also very worried about Red's situation.

"Hmph, that man may have jumped into the River of Doraki and drowned."

And at this moment, the poppy who was tied in the corner of the carriage whispered sadly.

"That's a river goblin who reflects desire, and a mean, nasty and insatiable creature like him will definitely not resist the temptation to jump in—"

"I'm afraid this idea is going to come to naught, my former master."

I saw Maeve lift the curtain of the carriage and get into the carriage.

"Red seems to have known about the rumors of the Doraki River for a long time, so he deliberately went there tonight...... With his strength, I'm afraid that if the River of Dorachi swallows it, it will be the Devourer's side that will be destroyed, you should know it well, right? ”

The poppy pursed her lips, looking unwilling, and looked up at Maeve.

"Before it's too late, release me, re-sign a contract with me, and we'll go to that man to settle accounts together......"

"This can't be done, I've now become Lord Red's servant, but then again, it's better for me to talk to you less, but I can't let my new master misunderstand."

Hearing Maeve's slightly mocking words, Poppy gritted her teeth, but she suddenly seemed to think of something, and the anger that had risen was extinguished instantly, so she quietly lowered her head and remained silent.

However, her performance seems to have aroused Maeve's suspicions.

"You're not thinking about anything, are you, poppy...... No, it's better to call you Wasabiko."

The poppy looked away from Maeve, looking like she wasn't going to communicate with her.

"Anyway, we used to be masters and servants, so I'll give you one more piece of advice...... Now that you've lost, just admit defeat honestly, and don't think of any weird tricks to turn the tables - especially if you're not suitable for this kind of conspiracy, if you insist on doing it, you're likely to hurt yourself. ”

The poppy pursed her lips and didn't say a word, and just as Maeve seemed to be about to say something, Habert Lot's voice came from outside the carriage.

"I've already agreed with Jasmine that she'll arrange a dungeon for that ..... Miss Poppy, and the others have arranged the rooms so that Red can meet you when he comes back to-morrow. ”

Maeve stared meaningfully at the poppy for a few seconds, then sighed lightly, then turned to look at the others with a sweet smile.

"Alright, sisters, bring your things and get ready to leave, I need to clean up here too, and I'll meet Lord Red tomorrow...... Repair? Demons?"

"Supplement, supplement? What does it mean—"

"Oh? Are you interested in this, I'll come to your room and explain it to you when I've settled Miss Hope. ”

"No, you don't need to, don't say that like Nokna Rea......"

"Uh-huh...... But in my opinion, I'm the original. ”

Just as Maeve and the other girls were packing up their things and getting out of the car, a sly smile appeared on the corner of the poppy's mouth.

Red Douglas ...... I'm not the type to leave an overnight vendetta, so wash my head and wait. ”

——

Swish!

Red swung out a knife and accurately grasped the flaw of "Batman" in front of him, and the head with the bat mask rose into the air, and blood gushed out from the broken neck like a fountain.

"52nd ...... It's almost boring. ”

After a long sigh of relief, Red threw the katana in his hand like a big orange pill, although he was a little excited to be able to fight with "Batman" in the illusion at first, but after all, he was not the real Batman, and after realizing this, Red also felt a little bored.

"It won't be like this, Dorage, to fulfill my wishes, but such dreams are not enough."

Ding dong.

Although Red seemed to be talking to himself, as soon as he finished speaking, the elevator door opened not far away.

Red only hesitated, and soon stepped boldly into the elevator.

The elevator slowly began to run, and Red closed his eyes, sensing the intense desire that had ignited in his body.

In fact, Red had already discovered that although he had experienced a lot of miscellaneous things tonight, the problems he was facing today had been planted long ago.

If anything, it started at the time of Olympus.

Artemis and Aphrodite, although the mental impact of the two goddesses did not cause much trouble to Red at the time, in fact, Red only used the pain of red light energy and blood power to forcibly suppress the charm effect, which does not mean that the power of charm is completely ineffective.

The effect of being enchanted before had actually been suppressed until it was detonated by Custer's magic eye this time...... Although he is once again suppressed by Red's blood power, Red does not plan to maintain the Red Lantern Demon form in this Persona Zone all the time.

In this case, it is best to vent these enchanted effects, after all, as the saying goes, it is better to block than to be sparse, and there will always be something wrong with holding it like this.

And Doraki gave Red this opportunity, but it seems that just fighting to vent is just a meal replacement after all, and it is still far from enough.

If you want to truly release these pent-up emotions and achieve the sage mode......

Ding dong.

The elevator stopped, and when Red stepped out of the elevator, he felt a somewhat dizzying scent and a diffuse water vapor.

Here it is......

Red glanced around, and immediately recognized that this was the large bath on Paradise Island, and if it was in the bath.

For a moment, Red subconsciously wanted to retreat, but when he remembered that it was a dream created by Dorachi, he smiled wryly and took a step forward.

Crash.

Amid the pleasant sound of water, several slender figures stood up from the bath and turned to look at Red.

But when they saw Red, they were not afraid or shy, but their eyes seemed to show anticipatory teasing.

Sure enough, for Red, these suppressed emotions are still the original sin of men after all, and they can't be completely vented without this way.

Of course, Red has no shortage of women even in this Persona Zone, but there are deeper desires that Hope and Aurora can't satisfy.

"Okay, Dorage...... I will take the gift you gave me. ”

——

"What?! Miss Poppy She ...... Escaped?! ”

Although Jasmine asked everyone to arrange a room for them to rest, Gareth was not idle, she secretly changed into armor and went to the dungeon where the poppy was kept.

As Red's knight, she felt obligated to watch over Red's captives while Red was away.

Of course, more importantly, as a member of the Mirror Clan, she had a vague feeling that Yu Meiren would not stay here so honestly.

As it turned out, she was worthy of being an orphan of the Mirror Clan, and Poppy had indeed escaped from prison, but the bad news was that by the time she arrived, it was too late.

"Gotta tell the others quickly...... No, Miss Poppy flew away with that purple magical energy of Habert Lot, and it would be too late if she didn't catch up quickly. ”

After a brief hesitation, Gareth made a decision immediately.

"You help me inform Lord Jasmine...... And my companions. ”

After taking a deep breath, Gareth took off his heavy armor and wore only cloth clothes that made it easy to move.

"I'm going to chase Miss Poppy back!"
