Chapter 392: Lily and the Eye Demon

Lily's location at the moment was not far from Ivus.

Or more accurately...... Griffith, the new trade secretary, is located near the iris restaurant, "The Snake Heart".

The situation at this time is different from the previous assassination of Minister Drost.

Ivus no longer needs to follow Lily to remotely drop Shadow Fiend into it...... He had other plans for following Lily this time.

He invited reporters over, but only a place was reserved for them. Then his photographer would have to stay at the door.

And the photographer happened to be in a position where he could see Griffith Manor.

As long as there is any movement in the manor, he can complete the shooting as soon as possible.

At the same time, Ivas happened to be nearby for an interview.

This is the opposite of the previous idea of planning "one's own kidnapping" during the assassination of the Minister of Trade. If that was to keep people from thinking that "this matter might have something to do with Ewas...... So now this matter, it is Ivas who deliberately made them think that this matter is related to Ivus.

Everyone knows that Ivas has a very clear alibi. At this time, Griffith Manor, which was very close to Ivus, was attacked by the Shadow Fiend; There is only one active Shadow Demon in Avalon, and it belongs to Ivus's "Gossip Girlfriend Aleister". There is clearly a connection between these things.

At least the ministers – especially the "chocolate pie" – would have thought of it.

Otherwise, Ivus would not have had to leave the Temple of Silver and Tin at all.

He came here to put pressure on them.

With the increase of the two extraordinary skill levels of Ivus's "Demon Contract" and "Shepherd (Essence)", Lily, who has obtained the Shadow Fiend Essence, has also doubled the limit distance when carrying the Shadow Fiend.

How long the contract can be now, Ivas himself doesn't really know.

But the main improvement for Shadow Fiend is Lily's shadow affinity, which has reached level four.

By the time Lily's Shadow Affinity reaches Level 3, she has fully mastered the power of Shadow Fiend and will not clash with it again.

At that point, Ivus will be able to put the Shadow Demon in Cape Village, and he will be able to subdue the Earth Bound Spirits; At that time, even if the limit was exceeded, the Shadow Fiend was not forcibly retracted, but fell into a deep sleep in Lily's shadow.

And when Lily emerged from the last promotion ceremony and obtained the path trait of "Shadow Incarnation", her Shadow Affinity had reached level four. There is only one level away from fully containing the power of the Shadow Fiend.

This level of shadow affinity has already outperformed that "Miss Assassin". Add to that the Shadow Fiend Essence that Ivus gave to her when she shepherded Lily with the Shadow Fiend, as well as the Shadow Stealth ability granted to her by the Shadow Fiend himself...... In addition to the fact that she still has a hard injury in terms of energy level, Lily's actual combat ability can be said to have surpassed that of the Assassin Miss from the "Hawkeye" organization.

At this level, even if Ivus is in the Temple of Silver and Tin, Lily's shadow radiation can already cover the entire Red and White Queens. It can be said that as long as there is no "knight" in the family who guards the elves, Lily's assassination is already something they can't resist.

Even a veteran knight of the fourth energy level, with the amplification of equipment and the help of Shadow Fiend, Lily can now easily kill him.

And if she is forced to manifest, she can also turn into a werewolf to gain frontal combat and health regeneration.

- It can be said that if you don't count the Flame Butterfly, which was completely liberated by the buff of the Book of Law, Lily is now the one with the highest strength in the Ivus team.

There is no way, there are too many resources at hand.

He knew so much about equipment, rituals, classes, and how to acquire skills...... But there aren't too many people who can make him trust 100 percent, and at the same time trust him 100 percent. And the first of them was Lily.

Under the accumulation of resources by Ivus, intentionally or unintentionally, her development was completely ahead of her time. Ivas "repairs" Lily according to the player's standards, and Lily is completely loyal - Ivas gives her all copies, and never adds her own "special understanding".

With the assistance of Aihuas, when Lily is promoted to the fourth level, I am afraid that even the guardian elves will be able to touch it.

After all, in this world where the "optional path characteristics" are all completely monopolized by the upper classes, the advantages that Ivas can provide in terms of construction are too great.

- It's like a Yu-Gi-Oh real card player has entered the world of the Yu-Gi-Oh anime version.

Not long ago, Ivas also took over the management of Sherlock's structure. And Isabel, as the successor of Janis, at least in the early stage, did not use Ivas much. But from the time of her fourth-level promotion ceremony, Ivas was going to help her with the transfer of classes - it just so happened that Janis should have left Avalon at that time, and her future teacher would be Ivus.

At this time, Lily is lurking in the shadows in the corner of Minister Griffith's basement.

But she didn't do it.

The reason is simple.

β€” because she had some windfall.

In the basement of Minister Griffith, there is a demon.

It looks like a giant eyeball, and the dense stalk floats like tentacles. At the end of each stalk, there is an eyeball of different sizes.

It's the Eye Demon.

A demon with the power to adapt to the path, it has the ability to clairvoyance, clairvoyance, invisibility detection, and future prediction.

If it weren't for the power of the Shadow Fiend that suppressed it, the invisible Lily would have been easily pulled out by it. But even if there is a shadow fiend, it will immediately detect Lily's presence as soon as she makes a move.

She also considered whether to kill the Eye Demon by sneaking up directly...... But after second thought, I decided to go it safe.

It's not a question of whether you can beat it or not...... As long as there is no one-hit kill, there is a possibility of change.

Lily was the assassin after all, and the neighborhood was full of patrolling griffins.

As long as she is forced into a protracted war, an unintentional identity will be revealed. When the time comes, it may directly disrupt Ivus's plan.

So she huddled quietly in the corner, waiting for the Eye Demon to leave.

Soon, Chancellor Griffith cautiously entered the basement.

He closed the door and affixed a silver-white sealβ€”a transcendent item made with the power of an authoritarian path to form an improvised barrier.

Minister Griffith asked respectfully and cautiously, "Your Excellency, I have already done everything you want me to do......

【Very good......】

The Eye Demon trembled the air and made some illusory sounds.

"But I still want to know...... What exactly does the host want me to do? ”

Griffiths is clearly confused: "If I don't know what I'm aiming for, I probably can't be sure I'm right every step I make......

"For example, this attack on Minister Moriarty is very unprovoked. I even suspect that Minister Camelot has guessed wrong. Because I don't have any contradictions with Minister Moriarty, but I'm attacking him strongly. And he is clearly a trusted minister of the Queen, and attacking him at such times is not only pointless, but may also annoy Her Majesty. ”

His request was very reasonable. But the Eye Demon was silent, and did not answer directly.

It looked at Griffith, already reading what was going on in his heart.

【Do you want more】

"Yes, I want more, my lord."

Without hesitation, Griffith replied, "I want to be the Child of the Moon!" What do I have to do to do this-"

[However, you can't get it anymore]

The Beholder gave a clear answer.

An answer that would make him desperate.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ What? ”

Chancellor Griffith asked tremblingly, "Why?" Didn't we say yes? Isn't it enough to get Yulia Moriarty's blood? ”

But at this moment, a counter-summoning circle suddenly appeared under the eye demon. It turned into a dazzling purple light that dissipated into the air.

"Because he has seen the future of your death."

Miss Assassin's sweet voice rang out inside the sealed basement.

Lily's face was expressionless, and she kept her mouth shut and didn't say a word. Black smoke evaporated from her body, and shadows continued to change into various distorted forms under her skirt.

A malicious laugh could be heard from beneath Lily.

Her pupils were fixed on Chancellor Griffith, her fingertips pressed a stalkless, dark golden shortblade.

That's the "Eagle Feather" short knife.

"Sir, what do you mean by that?"

Lily pushed her glasses, like a literary girl who likes to read poetry, and her gentle and somewhat shy voice echoed in the basement: "Can you explain it to me in detail?" Why do you need Miss Yulia's blood? Whose subordinate is the demon who traded with you?

Or...... Need me to show some sincerity first?

"[Don't worry, I won't kill you anyway]."

Accompanied by a fragile and thin lie, gray cobwebs emerged from the void, binding Griffith, whose body could not stop trembling, in midair.
