Chapter 688 Loren: I give you a chance to challenge me.
Poison 10th district center.
In this night of thunder and lightning and heavy rain, the entire northernmost part of the Posen Demon Realm seemed to have become a arena for the wrath of the gods.
Atio, who greeted Perlman, took a deep breath and gathered all the magic power in his body.
In an instant, an icy cold air surged on the ground. It was like winter coming on this summer night, and even the heavy rain began to turn into hail.
Wherever the magic swept through, a thick layer of frost instantly condensed on the ground, and icicles rose from the ground, connecting with lightning to lock Perlman in them.
Perlman did not dodge or evade, but waved one hand, and an invisible barrier of telekinesis faced the icicle.
Two energies suddenly collided in the air, erupting with a deafening sound.
Ice crystals splashed everywhere, and his mind power was scattered, but Perlman remained motionless.
“Yes, we have made a lot of progress.”
“Perlman, I used to respect you, but now you are not worthy of calling yourself a teacher!”
The ice crystal shield shattered suddenly, and Etiou staggered and almost fell to his knees, but he still supported his standing position with all his strength.
Perlman raised his hand to support Nigel's blade in surprise, and seemed to use this force to jump back half a minute.
Taking advantage of this gap, with a loud sound, a black meteor-like figure fell down and hit among them, creating a deep pit with spider web cracks on the ground.
She knew that what she had just received would be nothing.
Atio is obviously holding on.
Nigel's attributes are not very important, because he has basic proficiency and enhanced basic attack. Generally, warriors like this will bring functional cards. They may choose magic cards with [Regeneration] or [Enhancement] attributes according to their own conditions. , the element attributes may be changed at a specific moment.
Atio remained vigilant and resisted with all his strength.
Logically speaking, Nigel should rush to Duke Tiffany as quickly as possible, so as to slow down Beelzebub on the south bank to obtain the three secret key crystal keys and control the city defense barrier.
Even if Nigel returns to the south bank, he will not be able to fight against the eighth-level demon Beelzebub when the city defense barrier is overloaded, but helping Aiteo here will only slow down Aiteo's defeat. .
A smile appeared on Perlman's lips, and his figure suddenly disappeared.
“Behold, this is the end of the old age, karma, reincarnation.”
I saw cracks gradually appearing in the ice flowers, crumbling under the impact of telepathy.
“I didn’t expect that I would have to teach you the last lesson for Milaya.”
Atio had no choice but to face Perlman for a showdown.
All the magic power in her body gathered in front of her. In an instant, an icy blue light was like exploding fireworks. Countless sharp thunder blades condensed around her body and struck at Perlman like a gust of wind.
But now that the teacher is missing, she is the only one who can protect the Posen Demon Realm and Ifatiya's reputation.
Nigel didn’t reply, but just tightened his grip on the handle of the knife.
Atio took the opportunity to retreat, adjust his position and regroup his mana.
The giant screens scattered throughout the building were still functioning dutifully, showing the buildings on the South Bank collapsing like a house of cards in real time, with people running and crying everywhere.
The battle in the demon world on the north bank has reached a thrilling level, and the situation on the south bank is not much better.
…”
“It’s a big help!”
He was standing in front of a huge open-air screen in a broken square, and the picture behind him still showed the purgatory-like south bank of Parrieux.
“Nigel, why don’t you rush back to South Bank to help Mr. Tiffany?”
Perlman, however, had no mercy.
Atio reacted extremely quickly and barely avoided this fatal blow.
This time, the power of thought turned into an invisible sharp blade and went straight to Atio's throat.
In the legal system confrontation, he is the best front row.
It seems that those human beings deserve their sins.
“But if you want to fight me, you’d better call your teacher.”
Perlman strikes again.
But the next wave of offensive has arrived, and Perlman's telepathy is like a violent storm, coming from all directions, causing the ground to crack and sink deeply.
Perlman's level of enemy really requires the presence of her teacher, Duke Milaya, in order to be able to fight against her.
Aiteo's magic power, crystal clear ice flowers condensed around him, forming an indestructible ice crystal shield that blocked Pearlman's telepathy. At the same time, shadows lingered, slowing down Pearlman's movement starting from his feet. action.
Facing Atio and Nigel who were trying their best, Perlman stood impeccably, holding his cane behind his back again.
Nigels had already drawn his knife, turned into a black shadow and slashed at Perlman!
Psychic power gathered around him to form an invisible shield wall, blocking the blow again.
This shield won't last long.
The next second he appeared behind Etiou, and lightly struck her in the back with his cane.
Perlman's expression remained unchanged, and his telekinesis power increased several times in an instant.
Perlman’s tone was cold.
"And I, Perlman, will lead Huadu Parrieu and the Kingdom of Posen to a new era."
His voice was like a spell, echoing over the Posen Demon Realm.
Many of the demons who were hiding from a distance showed reverence on their faces and began to be gradually impressed by Pearlman's power.
The aftermath of the melee continues.
From time to time, the giant screen in the Posen Demon Realm will be distorted and shaken by the shock wave, and noise will also begin to appear.
Finally, the giant screen behind Pearlman was reduced to crumbs in the thunder. Then, another giant screen disintegrated in the process of cutting. In just a few seconds, the images and sounds in several places were interrupted, and the tragic scene on the south bank disappeared. Leaving behind a piece of dead electric snowflakes.
…
Parieu North Shore 4 arrondissement.
The House of Count Baptiste.
This decades-old old house had already turned on the lights in the rainy night, and there were constant noises of breaking doors, screams, and broken utensils.
Since not long ago, all the demon servants in the mansion began to riot.
The family who was about to be in danger suddenly heard a few loud noises, and all the maids were knocked unconscious by a crimson figure and subdued to the ground.
“Well done! Inoan!”
Christina jumped up in her nightgown and cheered.
If they didn't have the strongest human maid like Ino'an in their family, and Ino'an sensed the danger immediately, I'm afraid that even if there is an ancestral barrier in the mansion, the sixth-level demon maid would be mad. in danger.
Soon, Inoan locked these maids with magic-forbidden steel and sealed them in the basement with a barrier.
She wiped her sweat and walked out of the basement.
"Let me just say you are stronger than Rocky! He can't punch like you!"
As soon as she walked out, Christina rushed towards her and hugged her in a bear hug.
“Miss, now is not the time to be happy.”
Inoan was restrained by Christina's soft arms, and her expression became a little uncomfortable, but it seemed as if she couldn't push Christina away. She could only open her eyes and let Christina look at her. Said to Christina.
She is also fighting according to what Rocky taught her—
She is probably a magic warrior who is good at spiritual magic.
Moreover, she was able to control the zero-level and first-level mad demon civilians who were close to Count Baptiste's house with a kind of spiritual magic to leave.
Just by using it, she vaguely felt that this magic was originally created by her, and it was called [Grand Puppet Theater]. However, she could not imagine that she had created such a magic in her state of mind, and that it had been used before. What to do.
Even though Enoch was a little happy to find out that he was so strong and able to protect Christina, he couldn't relax at this moment.
finally.
“I’ll go guard the door.”
Inoan pushed Christina away and walked away steadily.
“Sister Christina!”
The three little ones of the count's family gathered around their sister, crying and trembling.
“It’s okay, everything will be fine when the sun comes up.”
Christina knelt down and hugged them, comforting them and asking them not to disturb her father and brother who were trying to communicate with the outside world.
Everyone in the Earl's family has gathered in the living room, but they still seem a little frightened at this moment.
They didn’t know why, but suddenly a catastrophe occurred in Huadu, and all the contracted demons began to go crazy.
Now outside, the bad news spread that the mad and cursed demons were ravaging the north and south banks of Huadu Parrieu. The church bells rang in the sky above Parrieux, announcing the arrival of the emergency city defense state.
Reception hall.
“Where’s Rocky?”
Count Baptiste sat on the sofa and looked at Kyle anxiously.
“Can’t be contacted either.”
Kyle held the communication magic device and shook his head with a solemn expression.
At this time, the person who makes them think of the most secure person is their housekeeper.
It’s not that he’s powerful, but that he makes people feel at ease when he’s around.
Fortunately, even if the housekeeper is away, there is still Enochian.
This maid was suddenly brought back by Butler Lodge and Christina that day. At first, no one in their family realized how strong she was.
Until today, they discovered that this maid really seemed to have a seventh level.
She had no fighting skills, and she completely subdued several mad maids, including even a sixth-level mad maid, relying solely on her physical fitness and unfamiliar spiritual magic.
Ordinary sixth-level people are simply unable to fight against this kind of crazy demons of the same level.
"No matter what, I hope Rocky can stay safe wherever he is."
Count Baptiste looked out the window and prayed.
At this moment, the situation outside Earl Baptiste's mansion is even worse.
The north bank was only swept by the disaster, while the south bank was almost destroyed.
The wave of darkness is still raging, the deformed demons are coming like a tide, the heavy rain washes the blood all over the ground, and the thunder and lightning illuminates the twisted and ferocious faces.
Members of the Knights Templar wearing silver armor were dispatched one after another, holding silver swords and cross shields, and rushed through the heavy rain to **** the wounded.
Priests in white robes gathered in front of the church, singing carols loudly, using magic to dispel the corrupt miasma, and tried their best to build a barrier to resist the intruding maddened demons and treat injured citizens.
Troops of executioners in black military uniforms emerged from dark alleys all over the city. Their sharp swords shone coldly in the rain and shuttled like ghosts. They used superb skills to kill the crazy demons. The Parrieux Police Headquarters has also been dispatched. Emergency checkpoints were set up in various districts and efforts were made to evacuate innocent citizens. Uniformed policemen, armed with riot shields and long batons, were on the front lines trying their best to stop the insane and aberrant people who escaped from the executioners' hands.
Under their guidance, the panicked crowds flocked to relatively safe shelters such as churches and police stations.
Cries, calls for help, and prayers merged into one, and poured into the night sky.
On a rainy day, the sound propagation is particularly clear.
Sounds even from several kilometers away can echo in our ears.
At this moment, the citizens of South Bank do not receive much official intelligence notification, and it seems that most news channels are almost paralyzed.
Only the channels in Districts 7 to 10 on the North Shore are still operating normally.
In the picture they could see through the magic projection, an eighth-level decisive battle seemed to be taking place in Area 10 of the Poson Demon Realm on the North Shore.
In the Posen Demon Realm, even though the ground is constantly shaking, there are still some desperate demon reporters who insist on filming on the front lines.
They used the latest equipment to capture this unprecedented battle in a blurry manner through layers of obstacles.
The camera is constantly shaking, buzzing from time to time, accompanied by blurry glitches, and may even turn into darkness and roll around for several times.
If you are too close to the center of the battlefield, you may be involved in two humanoid natural disasters at any time.
At the extreme distance, occasionally only some blurry images can be captured.
“The war situation in the Demon World on the North Shore is constantly escalating!”
A gray-faced demon reporter’s voice trembled slightly, and he read faster and faster.
“Parieux Broadcasting Company will bring you the latest reports until the end of its life..."
Before the female reporter could finish her words, a loud noise suddenly came from behind her.
Immediately afterwards, the camera equipment shook violently, the entire picture was interrupted, and the faint sound of glass breaking could be heard.
After a few seconds, the picture stabilized again.
But surprisingly, the demon reporter is still alive.
"I'm sorry for the interruption. It seems that the scope of the battle has reached my location. I need to continue to distance myself!"
She started running in the picture,
“But no matter what happens, we will persist until the last moment to bring you the most timely and authentic reports..."
In this way, in the thin line between life and death, there are fewer and fewer channels that are still broadcasting live battlefields.
There is always a recording perspective that can see the battle situation on the north bank, and there are also rear channels that are constantly broadcasting fragmented footage.
On the far south bank, countless pairs of eyes are witnessing all this through projection equipment.
People stared with bated breath, moved by the bravery of District 9 Demon Lord Etio and Executioner Nigel, and also indignant at the turmoil caused by District 10 Lord Perlman. In addition, they were mostly afraid.
Because it is probably too late to wait until the assassin general from Kuidan Territory in South Asia comes back.
Now we can only hope that they can create a miracle and defeat Pearlman.
Southern Parrieu.
In the heavy rain washing on the south coast.
A gray cloaked figure stepped on the blood-stained ground and disappeared.
He first went to the Tiffany mansion where the executioner was not present.
However, after breaking through the barrier that blocked detection, he didn't waste a second on breaking through the eighth-level protective barrier in the deep layers before heading to the next Duke's location.
"Perlman, Duke Tiffany's crystal key is not within the boundaries of the mansion. This woman looks like she is dead. My search magic can't find the crystal key."
He used encrypted communication magic to contact Perlman, who was currently in the 10th District of the Demon Realm in the northernmost part of Huaduparieu, and said.
Beelzebub ended the communication after saying this.
He believed Perlman would understand him without any further explanation.
This kind of key, if Duke Tiffany did not put it in the eighth-level barrier, he would definitely entrust it to a strong person he trusted.
And the only person she can trust unconditionally is the executioner she entrusted her life to.
…
At the same time, the other side.
District 10 of Posen Demon Realm.
The night sky was gloomy, with rolling dark clouds that were torn apart by dazzling ice-blue lightning in the sky from time to time.
Perlman touched his ear lightly, seeming to receive some communication.
Etiou’s unique magic power, it’s hard to tell whether it’s the natural thunder on this rainy night or her magic. When it hits the target, everything around it will instantly freeze, creating a layer of electric cocoon, and then explode into millions of ice fragments.
What is fighting against it is Perlman's invisible telepathy.
Sometimes it forms fist-sized vacuum zones in the heavy rain, roaring out faster than the eye can see. Wherever it goes, steel bars melt and rocks evaporate, twisting into vortices.
“Boom!”
Another blast of telekinesis hit the Posen Demon Realm Memorial Building. In an instant, this landmark building in Huadu melted and deformed like a candle, and finally collapsed.
The deafening roar resounded over the entire Posen Demon Realm, and the earth shook.
Atio finally knew that, and if she didn't try her best to use her strongest spell, she might not even be able to make Perlman take it seriously.
Making up his mind, Atio took a deep breath and closed his eyes.
In an instant, the temperature of Posen Demon Realm dropped suddenly.
First the wind howled, mixed with hail, and then the heavy rain began to turn into falling snowflakes in the dark night sky.
Soon, large swaths of snowflakes gathered into a blizzard, and the entire Posen Demon Realm District 10 was caught in this unprecedented cold current.
Aiteo's main weapon is thunder and secondary ice. Since it has dual elements, it is easy to be restrained when fighting elemental enemies, but it is not easy to fight purely control-type enemies like Mr. Perlman.
At this point, we can only inject damage, which consumes mana.
Atio opened his eyes suddenly.
Her pupils have completely turned into ice blue, like two cold stars.
Thousands of ice crystals condensed and formed behind Atio, and then shot towards Perlman like a rainstorm of steel needles.
Each of these ice crystals is like an explosive bomb.
However, in the face of this terrifying icy rain, Perlman did not panic at all.
Atio slowly raised his hands, and the next moment, all the raindrops and snowflakes stopped moving in mid-air.
As if a stop-motion spell had been cast, the howling wind suddenly stopped, and countless icy blue beams of light pierced the sky and penetrated Pearlman's body accurately.
Perlman smiled easily, and the telepathy around him instantly expanded, turning into an invisible energy ball that enveloped him.
The moment the ice crystal rain hit the energy shield, it was like hitting an invisible wall, shattering one after another, turning into lightning all over the sky, and then dissolving.
“Aiteo, although you are indeed at the eighth level, you are still too weak.”
Perlman’s voice came out through the energy shield, like the whisper of a god.
Before he finished speaking, Perlman raised his cane.
The energy shield around him suddenly shrank, and then flowed towards Etiou at an unobservable speed.
Atio immediately began to interweave ice crystal shields, but the condensation speed was not nearly as fast as Perlman's defensive counterattack.
At the critical moment, a dark figure flashed in front of Etiou.
Nigel crossed his swords, and a dark red shadow appeared on the blades.
He actually used his own body to resist this fatal blow.
His resistance to telekinesis is very high, and he can almost use sword skills to control and offset it.
Unfortunately, even Nigel cannot completely neutralize this terrible force.
Hearing the loud sound of metal clashing, he himself was thrown away by the aftermath of telekinesis, and he hit a wall a hundred meters away, with a trace of blood flowing out of the corner of his mouth.
In a blink of an eye.
Perlman saw the right moment and transformed into a navy blue scar, appearing in front of Nigel instantly.
He stretched out his right hand, with five fingers like hooks, grabbed Nigel's neck in the ruins, and lifted him up in the air.
“Nigel, I am really pleased to see your firm will.”
Perlman smiled sadly, and the strength of his hand gradually increased.
“Unfortunately, determination is sometimes a kind of stupidity.”
“Nigel!”
Atio wanted to rush forward to rescue him, but found that his feet seemed to be nailed to the ground, and his pace was getting slower and slower.
It is the intersection of Perlman's telekinesis and mental power. This demon who has lived for hundreds of years can actually control two forces with completely different attributes at the same time and interweave them perfectly.
Perlman looked at Atio, a smile flashed in his eyes, as if he was asking her to wait for him to take care of the Quilston family affairs.
He slowly tightened his fingers and stared at the expression on Nigel's face that was gradually contorting due to suffocation.
Although his own power is not as powerful as that of a demon warrior, telekinesis magic is also called power magic and can be used as a huge force.
“Nigel, bring out Duke Tiffany’s key.”
Perlman looked at Nigel and sighed.
He did not expect that Duke Tiffany would be so sincere to Nigel.
But Perlman can guess the reason. Nigel may not remember it. When this generation of Duke Tiffany was a little girl, the teenage Nigel saved her once. Maybe from then on, Duke Tiffany will remember it. This demon clan.
“Do you think I would put it on my body to fight you?”
Nigel let out a slight and weak laugh, and also had a look that was not afraid of death.
"oh?"
Perlman frowned slightly.
…
Poisen District 10, in a vehicle parked behind a distant building, Lan Qi pressed his hands on the steering wheel and listened to the sounds in the center of the battlefield from the half-open window.
Lanqi, who eavesdropped using Talia's hearing enhancement magic, probably also understood what the key of the crystal key Nigel gave him before coming to the devil world.
Then he took out a crystal key pendant and looked at it in the palm of his hand.
It turns out that Mr. Tiffany’s last key is now in his hands.
And Nigel gave him the key, meaning that if the worst happened, he would ask him to run away with the key, regardless of Nigel's life or death, and he must not let the key fall into the hands of the enemy. in hand.
“Tata, what do you think?”
Lanchi asked Thalia.
According to Thalia's thoughts that he read at this moment, the safest strategy at the moment should be to leave Huadu Parrieu with the key, whether it is to go all the way south to find the eighth-level assassin general of the Posen Kingdom, or to return to Hector with all his strength. It would be safer to ask for help from the Dun Kingdom.
But once the Creain Empire launches a war during this period, everything may be lost.
And as long as the unrest cannot be quelled tonight, the casualties in Huadu are unpredictable.
"I have no idea…"
Thalia was agitated and visibly struggling.
If it had been in the past, she would have chosen to retreat.
But now she could neither allow her enemies to ruin her sister's reputation nor watch a rare friend like Countess Rosalinda be put in danger.
Her thinking patterns are becoming more and more human-like, and her weaknesses are increasing.
“Lan Qi, is there any way you can help me?”
Thalia could only seek help from Lanci.
This guy is always synonymous with miracles when she feels like there is nothing she can do.
Think of it as making a wish. She hoped that Lan Qi could help her protect her sister's reputation and protect her friends in Huadu.
“If you were asked to fight Pearlman, would you win?”
Lanchi conveyed his thoughts to her.
“I can win, but I can’t kill him in three minutes.”
Thalia replied with conviction.
In her normal state, the big demons have special attacks against ordinary demons.
In her current Demon King state, she has a higher special attack against demons.
So even if she is a little weaker than Pearlman herself, considering the Demon King's special attack after Lanqi and her combine with the Nine Seals, she will definitely be able to defeat Pearlman.
But the current problem is insufficient energy supply.
Her style of play is control and counterattack. Compared to Shinora's frontal attack style that can quickly determine the outcome, she is better at wearing down the enemy.
“And this is under the premise that he has no other means. Looking at Aiteo fighting with all his strength, he can’t even make Perlman use his true skills seriously.”
Thalia added another sentence.
This is what makes her most uneasy.
Perlman, who has been developing smoothly in the Posen Kingdom for a hundred years, even Talia could not guess what kind of trump card the leader of such an independent branch of the demon clan would have.
“Tata, if I trick him out of his ultimate move first, do you dare to fight him?”
Lanqi asked seriously.
"How can you trick him into using his ultimate move? How much mana will it cost?"
Thalia pondered.
“It doesn’t cost mana.”
Lanchi replied.
?)
Thalia didn’t understand how Lan Qi could cheat the ultimate move with nothing.
“Although it’s still difficult to beat him within three minutes, you can give it a try. Do you have any other cards?”
She answered.
Lanqi nodded and took the initiative to summon Thalia.
Thalia sat aside and looked at him in astonishment.
She didn’t understand why Lan Qi called her out before the battle to waste his mana.
“You first unbind all your magic cards and replace them with the ones I gave you.”
Lanchi handed a stack of magic cards to Thalia and gave instructions to Thalia.
…”
Taliyah took the card handed over by Lan Qi. She didn't understand why Lan Qi suddenly asked her to change the card, and where these high-level purple and pink cards in Lan Qi's hand came from. It must be the Northern Continent.
There are even many eighth-level cards among them.
But asking her to change magic cards that she was unfamiliar with before the battle, she felt it was a stupid move.
"Next, you and I have to be of one mind. Only in this way can we win, do you understand?"
Lanchi looked into Thalia's eyes and said to her.
They can make mistakes ten thousand times in the card making room, but this time they cannot fail.
Even if he felt from the bottom of his heart that betting everything on Thalia was the riskiest move, he would still choose Thalia without hesitation this time.
Because this is the only solution to achieve a perfect ending, Pearlman must be defeated today.
"Um."
Thalia was slightly sluggish.
She didn't know what Lanqi's trust was about, and it even made her feel a little unsure.
But facing Lan Qi’s fiery emerald eyes, her eyes gradually focused.
Only the sincere heart was conveyed to her heart without any reservation.
Unprecedentedly, she felt that her soul was connected to this man, which was not a bad thing.
She nodded seriously.
“We will win.”
She assured.
…
The battlefield center of District 10.
At the time Aiteo broke free from the restraints and rushed to save Nigel with all his strength.
Nigel, who was captured, used his last strength to take out a knife from his side and stabbed Pearlman.
His movements were fast and powerful, and the air where the blade cut through was filled with blazing temperature.
The entire rain curtain unfolded into a slanted section!
Until Perlman's magic-enhanced cane was knocked away.
“Nigel, what a pity.”
Perlman's fingertips caught Nigel's blade.
Facing such an offensive, Perlman did not panic at all, and did not even blink.
As he waved his hand, Nigel's last weapon fell to the ground.
“It seems that after losing my daughter, I will lose another son.”
Perlman sounded as if the life-or-death struggle was just a joke.
No matter how hard Nigel tried, Perlman was still the same as when he played games with him many years ago. At this moment, they were like father and son, just father and son saying goodbye.
His eyes flashed with a flash of farewell, and he reached into his arms and took out a pitch-black crystal stone as big as a fingernail.
The incomplete black block exudes a strange light, with a curse flowing on its surface.
Nigel's eyes widened because he had recognized that this crystal stone had the same origin as the curse [Parroni's Resentment] and had traces of artificial modification!
It may be a fragment of "Parroni's Grudge", which was seized by Perlman and the curse spreaders from the researchers of the institute, so that they can analyze the curse magic and use it directly On other demons.
The reason why the Cursed Walkers tonight can have the identity of a researcher who has infiltrated the research institute is that they have already investigated and controlled an important researcher, interrogated him for information, and switched the case, seizing his identity.
By the time Nigel came back to his senses, a sharp pain had already spread from his chest.
Looking down, Perlman did not kill this thick-skinned warrior, but stabbed the black crystal into his chest!
"Perlman, you...you actually..."
Atio, who was about to save Nigel, suddenly stopped and looked in disbelief at Perlman, who had attacked Nigel viciously.
“Ahhhh!”
Nigel roared in pain, and his whole body shook violently.
A stream of black air spurted out from where the crystal was inserted, spreading on his skin and wrapping around his body like a poisonous snake.
The whites of his eyes quickly began to turn gray and black, and his pupils gradually lost their luster, becoming hollow and blood-red.
Nigel's fingers and toes gradually extended and turned into sharp claws. In the blink of an eye, Nigel had completely lost his humanoid features and turned into a violent and violent mad cursed demon with gray-black skin.
Nigel, who was directly affected by the fragments of [Parroni's Grudge], became even more insane than other demons who were cursed with madness, causing his aura to directly reach the most dangerous level in the seventh level. What’s even more frightening is that there is no trace of gentle light hidden in the eyes of this crazy demon anymore, only the bloodthirsty red light remains.
The mad Nigel let out a loud roar, and the sound wave created a fishy wind, which even made Etiou feel palpitations.
Perlman nodded with satisfaction.
“Well my proud boy, Nigel, go and avenge your sister on mankind.”
He looked at the mad Nigel and spoke softly, as if calling an obedient servant.
“Go and tear that demon who wants to protect humans into pieces, and show me your love for your sister.”
Henry Nigel said nothing, but the red light in his eyes became more intense.
“kill…kill…”
Its eyes were fixed on Etiou not far away, and its body gradually lowered, assuming a standard posture before hunting.
“No, Nigel, wake up, you are more determined than anyone else! You cannot fall at this time!”
Atio couldn't believe that the ferocious demon in front of him was his close friend who fought alongside him a second ago, and shouted to him.
Since the mad Nigel can be controlled by Perlman, it means that Nigel's madness is different from ordinary cursed demons. Perhaps it is a special madness that has been improved and researched through the fragments of "Parroni's Grudge". !
“Don’t…stop me…”
As if his brain was in severe pain, Crazy Nigel covered his head and struggled for a moment. After two seconds, he let out a mournful roar again, and his body rushed towards Etio like a cannonball, his sharp claws pressing towards her throat. .
At about to start a one-on-two match, Etiou felt an unprecedented sense of despair.
She tried her best, but still couldn't shake Pearlman in the slightest.
Previously, Atio felt that she could still resist Perlman with the help of Nigel, but now it would take a lot of effort for her to deal with the crazy Nigel alone.
Even Nigel has become her enemy, and the situation has reached an irreversible point.
At this desperate moment, all Etiou could think of was praying.
Pray to the gods, even pray to the ancestors of the demons, pray for someone to stop this overly powerful enemy!
A streak of ice-blue lightning burst out from her body, turning into a cage to restrain the mad Nigel.
Perlman, however, is not sitting idly by.
He originally wanted to kill Aiteo earlier.
Since the key to Duke Tiffany’s city defense is not in Nigel’s possession, it must have been entrusted to someone else by Nigel.
Perhaps, Perlman can guess who it is.
It is nothing more than Rocky McCarthy who was brought to the banquet by Nigel.
Some time ago, Beelzebub said that Rocky McCarthy was the one who could break the curse when he was fishing in the Posen Demon World. In other words, Beelzebub set up a trap in Area 7 of the Posen Demon Realm that day because he wanted to He wanted to find the mysterious being who helped Nigel break the curse, but in the end he was not sure whether he could kill the two of them at the same time to prevent any one of them from running back to Parrieux, so he chose to be on the safe side and not show up.
Presumably Nigel also trusted Rocky a lot, so he brought him here and entrusted the key to Rocky.
Perlman controls invisible telekinesis, fatally restricting Atio's movements at every step.
Under this double pressure, Atio felt that he would be fatally injured and defeated at any time.
Suddenly, there was a sharp pain in her brain, her face became paler, and her breathing became rapid and heavy.
Before Atio could defend herself against Perlman's mental attack, the thunder cage she had set up to restrict Nigel's madness was dispelled by Perlman's telekinesis. She had just blocked Nigel's sharp claws.
"it's over."
Perlman said softly.
He raised his cane, and the invisible power of thought at the point was like a heavy sword that was about to penetrate Etiou's body completely.
The suffering citizens on the south bank of Huadu were also praying for the dawn. Listening to the horrifying wailing in their ears, and looking at the battlefield scenes shot by the demon reporters from a distance, the sharp changes in the scene made them tremble even more.
Once Etiou is defeated, everything will come to an end!
They can't imagine what kind of massacre and disaster the demon-like Perlman will cause once he comes to the South Bank!
Even if you zoom in and out in the blurry and shaky picture, Etiou still seems like a small dot in the storm.
Just when Atio felt that he could no longer resist Perlman's terrifying magic power.
I saw an invisible arrow suddenly falling from the sky.
The rain dispersed and fell next to Etiou like a stream of green air.
The arrow burst out with a dazzling divine halo, like the first ray of dawn, illuminating the dim battlefield!
The surging wind suddenly burst out from the point where the arrow hit, like an awakening wild beast, roaring and sweeping across the entire battlefield.
This is not an ordinary air current, but the wind of the age of gods that contains ancient divine power!
Wherever it goes, the air becomes fresh and full of life.
What’s even more amazing is that the brilliance is like the rising sun at dawn, shining brightly on the heavy rain in the dark night.
It is pure, bright, holy and flawless. Any ordinary creature who sees this light will involuntarily have the urge to worship!
As the arrow fell, the wind and light intertwined to form an airtight barrier, firmly protecting Aitio within it.
The barrier is like crystal, light and elegant, constantly flickering with light.
What’s even more amazing is that when the heavy rain hits this barrier, the raindrops are unable to fall on Atio’s body.
Even Pearlman's decisive blow seemed to hit an invisible high wall, causing the surrounding rain to scatter in all directions, causing ripples on the surface of the barrier, but it was still unable to shake this layer of defense.
In front of this barrier of intertwined scenery, any force appears to be extremely insignificant, not even a slight wave will be stirred up. The barrier stands tall and will never be shaken.
This kind of defense can only make Pearlman and Atio think of "absolute immunity."
Perlman's face suddenly darkened.
Even without looking in the direction of the wind arrow, as an experienced eighth-level strongman, he also knew what the glory of the Gods symbolized and who held it.
He slowly raised his head and looked at the distant sky.
On the top of a skyscraper a thousand meters away, a figure stood proudly. The rain curtain around him seemed to have locked up the world, and the bright moon behind him seemed to be cut open by dark clouds.
The man was wearing a pitch-black priest's robe with golden lines that snaked like a river. His short light brown hair was slightly blowing in the wind, but it did not impair his demeanor in the slightest.
And his eyes, those two deep and clear blue lakes, shone with compassion, making all living beings tremble no matter how far apart they were.
The heavy rain and the roaring thunder were all isolated by invisible forces. Everything within a three-meter radius around him became quiet and peaceful.
Without any questions, all the demons who saw him knew that this was the strong man who had just come to help!
In his eyes, this earth-shattering eighth-level battle seemed to be nothing more than a small farce in the world.
But there is no doubt that it was the power of the wind **** in his hand that saved Atio at the critical moment.
“Great Priest Loren…”
Facing such a human being who could be called the strongest, Perlman felt fearful for the first time.
He realized that this battle might not be as easy to end as imagined.
Under the protection of the scenery barrier, Aiteo was finally able to breathe.
She raised her head and stared blankly at the mysterious figure.
The victory or defeat of Huatu Parrieux at this moment will all depend on that person's thoughts.
Whether it is Perlman, the lord of District 10, or the mysterious demon who spreads the curse over there on the south bank, they are no match for Loren!
The balance of victory and defeat trembles subtly in the dim light and strong wind...
“Why do you appear here…”
Perlman stared at the figure on the tall building in the distance, his originally dull eyes now becoming extremely solemn.
The most respected noble priest in the Hutton Kingdom has become even more famous and unstoppable in recent times.
It seems to be shrouded in imperial aura.
…
At this moment, several kilometers away.
The demon reporters hiding in the dark couldn’t believe their eyes.
When they saw the figure clearly, the magical photography equipment in their hands almost fell out of their hands.
“Loren!”
Even though it was far away on a rainy night and it was difficult to see the more distant places clearly, the brilliance of the Gods of the wind stone slab should be correct!
This news was like a thunder, instantly exploding among the viewers who could watch the scene in Nan'an.
They couldn't see clearly what was happening on the far side of the screen, but they all knew that the sudden truce, the direction in which Atio and Perlman seemed stunned, and the brilliance of the wind and stone slabs that struck their souls were all pointing in one direction. thing-
Loren takes action!
“It’s the great priest Loren! He’s here to help us!”
“The legend of the Northern Continent is actually correct. As long as you call his name sincerely, he will definitely come to save you!”
“He is the reincarnation of the Holy Emperor!”
The fire of hope was instantly ignited in the South Bank. The trembling people discussed and speculated excitedly, staring desperately at the only picture, and even shed tears of excitement.
Many evacuated citizens who saw this scene made shocking and exciting calls.
The appearance of the great priest Loren undoubtedly gave these desperate people a shot in the arm on this stormy night in Huaduparieu.
At the center of the battlefield in Posen District 10, Etiou was still looking at the distant sky in disbelief.
Surprise, awe, gratitude, and a hint of indescribable confusion.
Although theoretically speaking, Loren was worried about his direct disciple Lan Qi, so he went undercover and came to Huadu Parrieux to take Lan Qi back. This is very reasonable. After all, the commander of the Creation Empire would not have expected Loren to be like this. Dare to bet.
But the problem is, according to Milaya, Loren is a very cautious character, and it is unlikely that he would take the risk at this time and leave the capital of Hutton, which needs his protection, to come to a foreign country.
Despite this, with the addition of the great priest Loren, the battle situation has changed dramatically.
She will be able to keep fighting!
Now Pearlman's attention has been completely attracted by the high priest Loren, and he has started one-on-one surveillance. At this moment, she has the opportunity to subdue the mad Nigel first, and then help the high priest Loren outflank Pearl. Man.
Perhaps even without her taking action, the great priest Loren can take care of Perlman!
Thinking of this, Atio took a deep breath, once again gathered the remaining magic power, and stared at Nigel with eyes as bright as stars.
Facing the mad Nigel, Atio no longer just defended and evaded, but took the initiative to attack. Ice-blue lightnings were like dancing snakes, piercing Nigel's body.
At the same time, sharp ice cones rose from the ground and gathered into a sky waterfall in mid-air, firmly sealing Nigel in it.
The other side.
“O Goddess of Destiny, you really know how to joke.”
Perlman thought he was sure of victory, but he didn't expect to encounter such an unexpected change at the last moment.
The only trace that can be traced is that the high priest happened to come to Huadu for the platinum-level card maker of the Kingdom of Hutton, and happened to come into their plan, completely disrupting it.
At this time, Perlman could no longer care about Atio.
His entire mind was focused on the figure in black robe.
"What is your purpose, High Priest Loren? It is known that your appearance will represent a signal that the Crean Empire will most likely launch an attack on the Kingdom of Hutton in advance."
Perlman’s voice was low and dangerous, like the calm before a rainstorm,
"You shouldn't have intervened in this fight, and even if you saw it, you shouldn't have shown up."
…”
But Loren himself was still standing on the distant tall building, saying nothing, as if he was quietly waiting for something.
After waiting for a few seconds, he spoke.
"What else is there to say? You don't think I can stand by and watch this disaster."
His voice penetrated the heavy rain in Posen's Demonic World and lingered around Pearlman.
Whether it is falling rain or falling flowers, the eyes of the great priest are full of compassion.
“I’ll give you a chance.”
He raised his palm slightly, as if stroking the rain curtain, or holding the moonlight in his hand,
“An opportunity to challenge me.”
At the same time, he was also looking at Perlman.
Lanchi couldn't say anything to Thalia in her heart.
This Biyang guy really dares to act.
And in her impression, Loren was not so pretentious.
But it happened that Lan Qi was very familiar with Loren, and he looked very much like Loren in both temperament and demeanor.
Even students from Icerite College would not be able to tell them apart.
As for the immunity field with the luster of the Gods just now, even Loren may not know it. It comes from the wind attribute epic equipment of the cat boss.
【Dawn Storm】
【Category: Equipment Card】
【Level: Orange Epic】
【Class: 8】
【Effect: It can be triggered when releasing wind magic. It consumes mana to create an additional absolute immunity field. It can be triggered up to three times every twenty-four hours. 】
【Note: The strong wind of dawn covered the helpless reason in the dark snowfield, sweeping the faith called light to every witness. 】
It can be triggered by just using any wind attribute magic, and it can be used twice today.
From now on, Loren may have three more lives in the enemy’s intelligence.
The heavy rain is still falling violently.
The atmosphere on the battlefield in Posen District 10 became even more tense.
“Perlman.”
Loren spoke, and his voice was like the gospel of heaven, penetrating the storm,
"Your deep belief that 'human beings and demons can coexist', after you experienced growth, experienced harvest, and was about to succeed, until you were completely betrayed by humans and lost an irreparable price, I can understand all of this. You are persistent and determined. After being betrayed by your beliefs, you recognized the facts and began to become more extreme. Now you are no longer the same person as before. Hatred has blinded your reason and made you commit irreparable crimes. mistake."
These words also seemed like a trial for Perlman.
Hearing this, Perlman actually laughed.
It’s like I never thought there would be a human being who understands him so well.
“If I’m not wrong, High Priest Loren, you are also a very determined person, right? If you were me, how would you choose?”
He asked for advice, but also questioned.
When he looked up at the black-robed figure on the tall building, his eyes were filled with flames of reluctance and anger.
“I think I am not qualified to stand on the shore and tell the drowning creatures in the river what I would do if I encountered this situation.”
Loren was indifferent to Perlman's question, like an eternal beacon, responding to the lost people in the darkness.
“But I can understand you.”
When he spoke again, his voice was still like spring breeze.
“Very good, this answer is enough.”
These words made Perlman laugh again, but soon he put on the arrogant mask again, and there was even a hint of awe in the corner of his mouth.
The meaning of the great priest is very clear.
Understanding is understanding. Fighting is still necessary. They are already enemies of life and death.
“It seems that if I want to fight against this uninvited guest like you, I have to use something I didn’t plan to use today.”
Perlman’s voice was as deep as the murmur of hell.
He reached into his arms and took out a spar orb that was as black as midnight.
The surface of the orb is discernible, but it exudes an aura that is beyond the one previously given to Nigel's [Parroni's Grudge] fragment.
Perlman took a deep breath and slowly pressed the orb to his heart.
In the blink of an eye, the black orb began to melt and turned into a dark, viscous liquid that seeped into Pearlman's flesh and blood. Pearlman's body also began to undergo a horrifying transformation.
The skin of the originally slender and strong limbs began to turn a deathly gray color, with **** red lines like maggots appearing on the surface, rolling and squirming like magma deep in purgatory.
His eyes turned into bottomless black holes with no bottom.
Even though Perlman's image has become completely demonic, his temperament still maintains a strange elegance, as if he is not a violent demon.
Rather, he is a hellish gentleman who combines violence and grace.
“Now, we can fight to the death.”
Perlman He raised a hand, and the power of thought that turned into black ink condensed between his fingers, spinning and flying in mid-air.
Although using [Parroni's Resentment] requires burning life, and the sanity strengthening time obtained is also limited, it may not be as strong as the great priest Loren, but in the state of sanity, the oppression of his mind has already reached Able to barely fight against the Cardinal's level.
Even though the high priest Loren was pointed at by Perlman in his new state, he remained unmoved.
He watched Pearlman's transformation calmly, without a trace of surprise or fear on his face.
“So strong.”
Lanci pondered,
“But even so, how long can you hold me back?”
He asked calmly.
“The high priest seems quite confident and is willing to chat with me even now.”
Perlman was far away from him.
The noble high priest is unable to use all his strength to hurt the innocent people in the Poson Demon World at this moment.
His hands will definitely be **** when fighting in urban areas.
As long as Perlman holds back the high priest at this moment, once the south bank of Huadu is controlled, even the high priest will be unable to change anything.
"The battle between you and me will definitely endanger innocent people. Rather than fighting you in this state, it is better to just use small talk instead of using force. When your time passes, I will subdue you."
Lanqi simply shook his head to express a truce.
…”
Perlman felt a little bit inconsistent, and the concentration of dark thoughts slowed down.
Logically speaking, if the high priest is willing to waste time with him, it is certainly in line with his wishes.
But when the enemy's behavior is in line with one's own wishes, and one's own behavior is also in line with the enemy's wishes, it is often not called running in both directions at this time, but that one party must have fallen into the trap.
“Wait a minute, Great Priest, are you unable to attack with all your strength?”
Perlman felt more and more something was wrong, and began to abandon long-range combat and get closer to Loren.
Even though the absolute immune force field just now was of the wind attribute, at least level eight, and had the special effects of the original slate wind, he always felt that the wind attribute magic that triggered the force field was a bit too weak.
Loren, who originally had a superior demeanor and seemed unable to move a single step, saw Perlman preparing to take action and did so without hesitation.
“Give it to Luda!”
Lanchi ran away on the spot.
Even Perlman was stunned for two seconds.
…”
The high priest ran away?
“Sure enough…”
Perlman’s veins began to tremble in his forehead.
He was fooled.
The opponent forced out his trump card at almost no cost, and even deceived him for nearly a minute.
There is a high probability that this guy will not be Loren, but a copycat.
Suddenly, Perlman seemed to understand who this guy was.
Nigel has always had a mysterious companion named Rocky McCarthy, who seemed to be a man who appeared out of thin air in the Poisson Kingdom in recent days. Even Perlman could not find out his details, only knowing that he came from Scholars from the Northern Continent were employed by the Baptiste family.
The only person who would suddenly appear here to help Nigel in this situation is Rocky McCarthy.
Judging from the trust relationship between them, the secret key that should have been in Nigel's hands is likely to be entrusted to Rocky McCarthy at this moment!
Perlman looked at the direction where Loren disappeared, the expression on his face changed from shock at first to anger at last.
His fists were clenched, and his knuckles cracked as if he was crushing steel.
An unprecedented anger boiled like lava in Perlman's chest.
“Rocky McCarthy, I happened to be looking for you. I was going to put you in the queue behind Etio…”
As the words faded away, Perlman transformed into a bolt of black lightning and flew towards the direction where the fake Loren was escaping.
Perlman moved through the rain and lightning like the grim reaper.
His speed was getting faster and faster, and the surrounding high-rise buildings turned into blurry afterimages in his eyes.
…
Lanci’s figure leaps and bounds in the steel forest of skyscrapers, like a dexterous cat.
While flying between high-rise buildings on the power of Boss Cat's telekinesis, Lan Qi felt the oppressive feeling behind her getting closer and closer.
“Meow, meow, meow, have you really been impersonated by High Priest Loren?”
In the shadow, Boss Cat felt that Lan Qi was going too far.
In the past, he only imitated the stone slab of the great priest, but now he even imitated his face.
“Don’t talk nonsense, this is called cosplay.”
Lanqi said seriously.
“Cospure?”
The cat boss read,
“You are a hammer, see if the great priest Lorentong agrees with what you are saying, meow!”
Ever since Lan Qi began to transform into Agnello, the Son of Annihilation in the Snowy Province of the Protos Empire, the cat boss suspected that Lan Qi had a magic card that could transform him into Loren.
The result is true.
How many more [Transformation: Human] have you done?
“He seemed a little angry.”
Lan Qi frowned and muttered to himself.
He felt that Pearlman simply ignored the wall and chased him straight away.
“Can he not be angry? Meow!”
The cat boss was so scared.
If it weren't for Tata, he really wouldn't dare to be a cat to Lan Qi this time!
It seems like he has never counted how much this guy can attract hatred.
Perlman must have realized that Loren was suspected of being an impostor, and he imitated the original slate style in a very special way to disguise himself as the great priest Loren.
Even cheated out his ultimate move at almost no cost!
How can you not be angry?
…
At the center of the original battlefield, Atio looked at Perlman who was far away. He should have relaxed a lot, but he only felt a sense of security like a crumbling building that was in danger of collapsing at any time.
After using all her strength and all her magic, she finally froze Nigel, who had some sense and kept trying to stop attacking her, in an iceberg. She thought she had a chance of victory and dawn was approaching.
What’s worse is that her ominous premonition came true.
When she saw Loren running away, her whole body collapsed as if struck by a thunderbolt.
Sure enough, there is something wrong with this Loren.
Even if Perlman becomes mad and stronger in a short period of time, Loren can still suppress him according to his strength. There is no need to run away so despicably and adopt Perlman's mentality. It is almost like the cardinal's play style of the Church of Resurrection.
And it’s odd that Perlman would go after him.
“What the **** is going on? If that’s not Loren, who is he?”
Atio's eyes were confused, like a child who had lost his way in the storm, and he had very little mana left.
Her mind was in chaos and she couldn't figure it out for a while.
All kinds of questions grew wantonly in Etiou's heart like sharp thorns, confusing her thoughts.
She didn't have time to think, she just felt that Perlman's current state was too scary.
The entire Poisson District 10 trembled and whined under Pearlman's magic.
Black lightning bolts of telepathy left scorched black scars on the buildings like the whips of demons. Hot air waves swept through the streets. Under the impact of crazy energy, the skyscrapers he passed were crumbling and turned into broken walls. .
The entire North Shore District 10 has been turned into a living hell.
Facing this terrible sudden change, even the reporters who risked their lives couldn't help but feel terrified.
They trembled and let the camera equipment try to capture this final moment, but the picture shook violently. Not only their hands were panicking, but the ground itself was also as unstable as an earthquake.
“Isn’t it the great priest Loren?”
“Who else can stop Perlman like this? It turns out that Etiou had no chance of winning from the beginning!”
“Run away quickly, let me out. If you don’t leave, it will be too late. All the flowers are gone!”
On the far south bank, those people watching the battle on the north bank through the projection screen also fell into unprecedented fear.
What was originally an exciting figure has now become the biggest mystery.
At first, they did not see clearly that it was a black spot on a tall building and not Loren.
There is only the brilliance of the stone slab that is suspected of being Loren's.
It is also very possible that Loren could only send extremely limited ultra-long-range magical assistance from the Hutton Kingdom thousands of kilometers away, but since Perlman greeted him so violently, it means that It’s probably not Loren who’s here!
Whatever the truth, one thing is clear: the figure who dared to stand up to Perlman has disappeared.
The newly raised fire of hope was ruthlessly extinguished, leaving only devastation and ashes.
People watched in despair as the North Shore fell into desperation and Pearlman wreaked havoc, but nothing could be done.
"Please, someone must stop this..."
“Goddess, please protect us!”
“Even if you are a dark hero, please come and save us!”
The sad cry echoed in the shelter on the south bank.
The citizens of Parrieux were in tears, pinning their only hope on the vague and unknown.
…
Not long after, Perlman arrived at the top of a skyscraper that reached into the sky.
The terrace courtyard is separated by stone walls, and only heavy rain still falls on the terrace.
He stabilized his body and landed on the terrace, with a circle of water splashing under his feet.
With eyes as sharp as a hawk, through the rain curtain, he used magic to sense and search for Rocky McCarthy's figure.
At this moment, Perlman could clearly sense that the impostor was hiding behind the wall in front of him.
The opponent's magic power was so weak, which made Perlman even more convinced that the opponent could not be a strong man of Loren's level.
In other words, a truly strong person does not need to use this method to deceive.
Perlman is in no hurry.
His boots hit the ground, making a heavy and rhythmic sound, like an eternal death knell.
“Take off your mask and let me see who you are.”
Perlman's voice was chilly.
Perlman knew that Rocky, a person who seemed not to exist, was just a disguise.
His true identity is neither Loren nor Rocky, but a more mysterious guy.
The moment when you turn the corner.
The other party seemed to sense Perlman's approach, and the figure standing in the dark rainstorm paused.
Dark gray clouds billowed in the sky, and the Posen Demon Realm was immersed in a dead silence. From time to time, lightning surged between the summer clouds, illuminating the huge buildings in the clouds and mist.
At the same time, it also illuminated the faces of the high priest and Perlman until they were extinguished.
When the sky darkens again.
Perlman only felt that the figure of the high priest had changed.
Standing on the stand at the top of the towering spire building, there was only a tall man wearing a dark gray coat.
His skin was as pale as snow, without a trace of blood.
He just raised his hand slightly to seal Perlman's movement.
In addition to the suffocating magic power that he exuded in an understatement, when he sealed the space next to Perlman, the surrounding atmosphere seemed to have stagnated at this moment, and the surrounding area exuded a deep light, becoming thousands of The dark stars danced in it, like a living body of magical energy that did not exist in space but could hit the eyes and enter the mind.
If ordinary demons who are not mentally strong enough face this halo that directly hits their souls for the first time, they may feel that they have established an indescribable connection with the world, and in an instant experience a long experience that transcends the body and mind. Time travel, in the end I was completely stunned, fell to my knees and even burst into tears.
The convoluted words do not belong to any known era. Only demons who have seen the ruins of the Gods will know its meaning.
This is exactly the power that will be emitted when the original stone slab is blessed.
And this stone slab, which can generate blessings for sealing magic, has already revealed the name of the stone slab—
【Original stone slab-seal】.
As if sensing Perlman's gaze, the man turned to look at him.
Those dark gray eyes are like an abyss, which can make people indulge in it and gradually lose their souls.
When he stood there, the invisible terror exuding from his body only made living creatures feel humble and helpless, and when he moved, all sense of stability would surely collapse because of him.
That smile seemed to be asking Pearlman—
You don’t really think I’m weak, do you?
Perlman finally gave an answer to his previous question.
“I am the legendary seal master, Askesan.”
The man in gray has a gentle voice, as if the quicksand of time flows out of his mouth, and every word is filled with irresistible magic.
“Children, I’m back.”
