"It's no wonder that the one who woke up in the far north and went all the way south, never intended to hide his tracks, and if he couldn't find it, he would only say that the Salvation Army was useless. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

Mephistopheles' laughter stopped abruptly, and he looked at Edward, his eyes full of mocking disdain.

"But even so, how are you going to destroy me?"

Edward had a feeling that, compared to the superficially gentle merchant before, the real Demon King Mephistopheles was now full of sarcasm.

Mephistopheles didn't know what Edward thought of him, and even if he did, he wouldn't care, he was now more interested in Edward's purpose.

"Actually, it's quite difficult for you to even survive in my hands, let alone destroy me, so where do you get your confidence, or what is the strongest magician up to?"

Mephistopheles' question pleased Edward, a childish attitude that even he found amusing, but the joy could not be stopped.

"As you said, we are not your opponents, and probably no one in the entire Salvation Army is your opponent, saying that we want to destroy the Demon King, but even we don't know how we can do such a thing that is almost equivalent to legend. ”

Mephistopheles didn't think Edward would praise himself or beg for mercy with flattery, he was waiting for Edward's next words.

"So, of course, I won't challenge the Demon King unprepared. ”

As Einstein finished speaking, a shrill roar erupted around him, the sound of some kind of large-scale magic being activated.

"It's ...... Teleportation magic. ”

On this point, Mephistopheles was absolutely impossible to be mistaken, after all, spatial teleportation was what he was best at, and because of this, he could see how difficult this huge teleportation magic was, the magic itself did not have any loopholes and weaknesses, and because of the previous enchantment, it was a fool's dream to rely on the same method to leave.

There is no doubt that he is generous, and it is not surprising that even if he is a demon king at this level, after all, the demon king cannot exert 100% power in this world.

Mephistopheles frowned, he didn't see any magic circles, and coming here to drink coffee today was purely a whim of his mind, which could rule out the possibility of hiding the magic circles in this area in advance.

"It's a shame that both the original Assassins and the four of us were just bait to get your attention. ”

From the two assassins to the magic cast by the four magicians, the layers of bait kept Mephistopheles' gaze firmly fixed in the present, and only this interlocking troublesome method and a total of six victims could make Mephistopheles actually step into the trap.

And among the victims, Edward, who once had a relationship with Mephistopheles, can be regarded as a further bait.

What a sophisticated trap, what a cruel trap.

Suddenly, Mephistopheles, who was looking around, asked the question without looking back.

"Does anyone else know your true purpose?"

Just this sentence made Edward's face bloody, and he looked at his companion who had been brought by Mephistopheles as if he were a thief. His companion was still unconscious, but that didn't reassure Edward, and he bit his lip.

Mephistopheles is the Demon King, and he will not have extra tenderness, let alone face a man who has become an adult and needs to be responsible for his actions.

"And the people around you, once this magic is established, I'm afraid none of the humans who are involved in it will survive. ”

Teleportation without a destination is undoubtedly the most dangerous, because the world is too vast and there are so few places for humans to live, whether teleported in the air or beneath the earth, enough to kill vulnerable humans.

And all this just to allow Mephistopheles to be incapacitated for a certain period of time.

"They...... There is a consciousness of sacrificing life. ”

As if to speak to himself, Edward whispered the words.

"Yes. ”

Mephistopheles was noncommittal.

Maybe it was because of Mephistopheles' attitude, Edward didn't know, his expression turned hideous.

"I ...... too There is the consciousness of sin, the consciousness of innocent killing, and ...... The sin of betraying one's companions. ”

This time, Mephistopheles turned around.

"The Salvation Army has really not changed for hundreds of years, and it is still as extreme and unscrupulous as before, and even the demons are afraid of your viciousness. ”

Edward gritted his teeth, he knew that Mephistopheles was right, and he knew how terrible the Salvation Army could do for the sake of the result, but it was all helpless.

The enemies of this world are too strong, and if the weak human beings can't abandon their humanity and can't be more cruel than the enemy, they will definitely lose even the power to resist.

It is precisely because of this that the Salvation Army will let those in despair see the only glimmer of hope, even if it is a color darker than blood, and people will grasp it without any reason.

Looking at Edward's ever-changing face, Mephistopheles remembered the strongest magician in the world, the same expression on the day he gained power, struggling in pain with his hands and feet twisted by despair, struggling and struggling, and finally clutching at the double-edged sword of faith covered in devastation.

Today and then, Mephistopheles just looked at it coldly, laughed at this pitiful and humble determination, and asked the same question.

"Do you really think so?"

Mephistopheles knew what the Salvation Army's so-called enemies were, and what the consequences of the Salvation Army's actions could be, so it could be said that whatever they did was in vain.

And, even if all this is left unattended, if the Salvation Army does emerge victorious, it will only be a victory with this bloody smell, and there will be nothing left of the victory that has abandoned everything but the dregs of near despair.

"Are you trying to save, or are you just trying to die in this way?"

Edward was silent, and Mephistopheles didn't really care about Edward's answer, he had wasted enough time on Edward, so he stopped talking to Edward and focused on finding a way to crack the teleportation magic.

Suddenly, Mephistopheles thought of something, he had seen the glow of magic somewhere before, but he didn't think about it because of the bait, and just took the glow as if it was there.

"I was amazed endlessly. ”

Mephistopheles looked up at the barrier in the sky that was indistinguishable to the naked eye.

"Being able to engrave a magic array on a barrier made of magic is the power of the strongest magician in the world? (To be continued.) )
