Chapter 22: Blood and Tears (Rewritten)
At first, Papetz was a little flustered, and when he saw who was coming, he was stunned at first, and then ecstatic.
With a "bang", Papets knelt down on one knee and lowered his head, "Demon Lord, the humble general didn't know that you were coming, and he was far away to welcome ......"
On the surface, Papetz is just a formality, and that person is not a demon lord at all, at least not yet.
Speaking of which, that person's current identity should be equal to Lanaya, and they are both the inheritors of the gods, but it is difficult to say how much difference there is between strengths.
And he was able to enter the passage because of his attributes that fit with the demons, and he has [Divine Sense], and the rank is above Papets.
The visitor walked up to Lanaya and glanced down.
Shocking.
After a pause, he gently helped Papetz to his feet.
Papetz had been watching his movements before, after all, their common enemy, if he was executed without saying hello beforehand, he would probably be upset.
Fortunately, he was not angry. At least from the expression, no.
From Lanaya's vision, there was only one pair of heels, one of which was still stepping on the ground in the crook of her arm. Shouldn't you think that it's already good if you don't step on it, and it doesn't aggravate the feeling of being very painful and not going to die.
If Papetz calls this man the Demon Master, then he must be the person with the highest status in the Demon Realm? The strength should also be above Papets, right? Maybe he is that...... Successor of the Demon God......
Complex relationships.
Blood, pain, serious injuries, she was already in a trance, and now it was an ironclad death, but she couldn't even say the words to die.
But thinking that he would harm the entire supernatural world, he was unwilling to die.
"You're doing a good job. "I'm satisfied." β
Papetz was not complacent after being praised, and still kept his posture low: "This is what I should do." β
"So-"
The two stared at each other for a few seconds, and Papetz suddenly sensed the killing intent in each other's eyes.
The moment the two extremely strong energies collided together, the two of them each retreated, and there were seven steps away in the middle.
So, go die?!
Papetz didn't figure it out for a long time, there is no reason for this, why kill him?
"You're right, I'm no match for him. Adrian conveyed his words to Blackie. Papets was defenseless, and he could react instantly to protect himself when he was attacked by a surprise attack, which already shows that Papets's strength is above him.
"I can only use the power of [Vision], master. β
"...... will be felt by her"
"So what?!"
So what...... yes, didn't he come here to keep her from dying?
"You, are you alright?" Papetz asked, thinking that he might have shot too hard.
That's good news, Papetz thought he was just going wrong for a moment so he wouldn't really see himself as an enemy.
"I'm fine. β
With that, he appeared in front of Papetz from seven paces away, and at the same time unleashed an even more fierce attack than before.
I'm fine, but there's something wrong with her.
To be honest, if it weren't for the deliberate assassination that day and accidentally sensing some new memories of the demon god, he would definitely not have come to save Lanaya today.
The Holy Devil is not at odds, it has been like this for thousands of years, and the two gods have fought until the end of the battle, and they have not forgotten to choose their respective successors and continue to fight. This is the reason why he will receive orders from the Demon God to kill Lanaya, and why Lanaya will hear the phrase "Avenge me".
However, the newfound memories made Adrian's attitude change in an instant. The Demon God took advantage of the Holy Spirit's feelings and deceived her for the rest of her life!
As long as there is this one reason, he will not listen to any of the instructions of the demon god in the future.
This is the principle.
Papetz finally realized that something was wrong.
Adrian wasn't a miss, he wasn't being controlled, he was meant to do it.
"Knock, knock, knock......"
Lanaya felt her heart pounding against the ground, and the back of her right hand slowly became a little hot, and even trembled uncontrollably, all kinds of abnormalities reminded her of the scene. When the mist in the room had not yet evaporated, when the warm and moist breath made the clothes cling to the body, when the first drop of blood slid down the back of the hand, and, the man......
(I don't remember exactly what he looked like, but I had a feeling that I would recognize him if I saw him again.) οΌ
Adrian's left eye has been dyed red, demonic red. As Xiao Hei said, he still used the power of [Vision].
The situation immediately turned back.
Papetz felt he had to come up with a new strategy.
It was hard for Lanaya to figure out one thing, she only had one breath left, and the man didn't lift a finger from her. And on the premise of clarifying their hostile relationship.
Then she was suddenly grabbed from behind, with several sharp objects against her neck.
A grim laugh came from behind his ears.
In front of her, the pupil in the left eye shrunk into a thin leaf was chilling, and the red light it emitted seemed to be covered with a layer of blood mist, and I couldn't help but want to cry when I looked at it.
"Only I can completely destroy her senses. Adrian said.
"Don't tell me this now, I have always respected my Lord, even if it is you who now have his consciousness. I will let you do it, but you must first prove your faithfulness to our Lord. Papetz ordered in a cold voice, "Lose your weapon!"
As he spoke, his nails pierced again.
Lanaya doesn't feel the pain anymore. The person in front of him didn't move at all, didn't move, didn't even blink his eyes. He did not react at all to this threat from Papets.
yes, whoever killed her was the same.
Here in Adrian, there are things they can't see. It was like the nail had pierced his heart. It's painful and tiring, and in front of Papets, he has to not show his true emotions to have a chance.
With a crisp thud, he disarmed himself and walked slowly towards it.
Lanaya's eyes widened in disbelief.
Even, gasp.
It was as if there was an invisible force in front of her, pushing towards her. With each step, her breath paused for a minute, and eventually Adrian stopped one step away from her, and her breathing became still.
Adrian lifted a hand to her neck, and as the strength grew more affirmative, Papetz agreed with him, and he curled the corners of his mouth in satisfaction before taking a step back.
Lanaya's hair was messy, and he touched the blood on his hand. The arteries under his thumb were beating restlessly.
The pressure of her throat made her mouth open, but she couldn't breathe. Sight and consciousness blurred. It's just death, she can't figure out why he suddenly turned against Papetz before, and why he couldn't kill himself decisively, what this man was thinking.
A second before she closed her eyes, Adrian shifted his gaze to the direction behind her, and at the same time, the red glow in his left eye lit up, and his eyes were even more like real demons.
Papetz found himself solidifying...... There was a layer of something of unknown nature, slowly covering his body from scattered parts of his body, and soon his hands and feet could not move.
"You...... What are you doing?"
From Adrian's increasingly scarlet left eye, there was a drop of blood and tears!
The solidified crystal had already spread to Papets's chest, and he understood that this person didn't want to kill her at all! From this moment on, Papets would never treat Adrian as the lord of the future Demon Abyss, and this position must be replaced by someone else!
"You have rebelled against our Lord! you will pay, God will punish you, disobey God's will, you will die a good death......"
Papetz let out a long roar, and his whole body burst into demonic flames, burrowing through the last crack above his head, rushing into the darkest direction of the space, and vanishing.
The so-called [passage] also disintegrated into pieces after that, and the surrounding area returned to reality.
Snowflakes were falling from the sky.
"Is it worth it? You won't be able to use [Vision's] powers for another month, master. Blackie picked up the weapon he had left behind.
"I don't know, but I must not let Ami achieve her goal. He did that kind of thing, I couldn't. He subconsciously touched his left eye. Thinking of that new memory, Adrian still gritted his teeth with hatred, and at this time, there was movement on the ground next to him.
Lanaya realizes that she is not dead, and that the wound is slowly healing when the snow falls on her.
When she tried to prop herself up and was about to get up, she saw a person in front of her, and she followed the legs and looked up.
"It's ...... you"
She understood it all now. The relationship between the Holy Spirit and the Demon God, the relationship between the two of them, she must kill this person to completely stop the Demon Realm's attempt.
With a light blade in one hand, she got up and stabbed itβ
However, her wrist was caught impartially, her strength could not be used, her state was too weak, and then she felt a weakness in her knees. But she didn't fall, and Adrian pulled her.
β......β
When he let go, Lanaya could clearly see a fresh cut on his tiger's mouth, which was just pressed against the blade of light.
"It doesn't matter if you remember today's events, but don't tell anyone. With that, Adrian turned and walked away, a few blood flowers falling down the snow with his fingertips.
She looked at the blood flowers in fascination.
I don't know how long it took for the mentor to come over.
Everyone was in different moods, and after learning that Lanaya was fine, they were all relieved.
"Gotta hurry up and take care of the wounds, Grint and Ted are there, can you still go?" asked Blaze.
Lanaya nodded, and walked slowly, accompanied by Filier and the others.
She saw the blood that would appear every two steps on the snow, as if she had seen the blinding red light again. His eyes were sour, and the scene in front of him was refracted and distorted by a thin layer of water.
Subconsciously wiped the thing that flowed to his cheeks halfway with his hand, mixed with dust, mixed with some light red, a little cloudy, and not even even.
I'm ...... What's wrong......
