Contract and the Demon King

The sword of the Demon King with vermilion radiance flowing through its veins pierced Gerald's chest.

The battle is over.

It would have been nice if it could just end like this, but neither the "fog" formed by the power of death nor the "darkness" formed by the power of the demon king has not diminished, and they are still fighting, and it feels like time has stopped advancing at this moment.

Even though he was pierced by the Demon King's sword, Gerald did not show a painful expression. Instead, he looked at the heavy sword he was holding with one hand in a puzzled way - the power of death condensed into the sword was trying to corrode the palm of his hand and appear The left hand of the circle of vermilion hexagrams.

"Sure enough, even the devil's sword that condenses the power of the devil can't kill you if it hits you, because you are the closest successor to death. The strong desire distorts the core of the book, and your own power Is it combined to form such a distortion?"

"Yeah, and then...you still can't..."

Gerald didn't care about the sharp knife piercing his chest, and looked at Ye Yang with disappointment in his eyes.

That was indeed disappointing.

How far must you die to show such an expression when you are pierced by a sword and still can't die?Totally incomprehensible.This is no longer a question of wanting to die, but a complete denial of one's own life from the spiritual to the instinctive.

Even if he could barely dodge, he still endured the attack impartially.

Even if he could burst out the power of death that could pollute the entire base in an instant, he still tried his best to restrain himself.

Gerald's eyes blinked, and the disappointment disappeared in front of his eyes.Then he showed the expression he had seen once again.It was a face mixed with disappointment, hope, and anticipation.

If it doesn't work this time, it will be next time, this time it's just not strong enough, Geral must think so.

But, sorry.

"No, it's ready."

The right hand holding the Demon Lord's sword exerted force again, and the blade advanced a few inches.

Gerald didn't stop it, but looked at the sword blade emitting vermilion light in some puzzlement.

"The distortion at the core of the book comes from your own distortion. Then just modify this. Get rid of your serious hindrance to the book of the contract, and isolate you from the power of death that prevents you from facing death .”

"This kind of thing..."

"It can be done, although generally speaking it is impossible, but ah."

As if responding to those words, the vermilion light became brighter and brighter.

"If it's the Eye of Sin, it can be done, Gerald, if that's what you want."

Ye Yang "grip" and broke Gerald's sword.

"Then let me do it!"

The "fog" of walking death was forcibly dispelled under the pressure of the vermilion light.Blood oozes from the place pierced by the Demon King's sword, staining the originally pitch-black clothing red.

Using the power of the Eye of Sin to isolate Gerald's death force may sound like a very simple thing, but it is actually completely different.What is needed is not skill, but depends on the user's own understanding and use of the Eye of Sin.

To do this kind of thing is of course a risk, Ye Yang wanted to raise his left hand that was holding the epee just now.It was found that the left hand had completely lost feeling.

But that was enough, at the cost of temporarily being unable to move one hand——

The Dead Book Heirs has come to an end.

........................

I was wrong, and very wrong.

Birds are born to soar in the sky, fish are born to swim in the sea, Bailan is born to make her sister happy, there is no doubt about the three-stage method of verification——when I was about to make this truth When I told my sister, I saw her holding a wooden carving of a black-haired childhood sweetheart in a daze.So this question has to be put aside for the time being.

So I was wrong, very wrong.There was an opportunity for me to say this sentence before me, but I didn't cherish it, and I didn't regret it until I lost it...

"Okay brother, I'm wrong this time, I shouldn't have gone out without telling you. So don't pretend... No, it's this pitiful expression."

"Hmph, it's too late to apologize. If you want me to forgive you, come here and let me love you."

"Forget it, I still don't want my brother's forgiveness."

Ariel turned around and put the paper bag in her hand on the wooden table.

"And speaking of it, brother and Yue are not good. They are always away from home. It's rare that we rented a room in the city, so I want to cook for myself after a long absence."

"Yeah. Although you want to show your feelings in front of Yue, I understand."

"That's...that's not the case!"

Even though she just mentioned her name, my sister's reaction became so cute, she is such an innocent girl.

Even knowing the truth about the destruction of the village, this pure white has not been polluted.and.Although I don't know why, my sister seems to be in a good mood today.

"My sister, you are in a good mood today, did Feiyue give you some gift?"

"It's...it's not the case anymore! Besides, Yue and I are arguing now, and now I don't want to hear this name."

"Huh? Is there such a thing? It seems to me that you lost your temper with Yue yesterday, and in the end, you became even more angry because the guy didn't care at all... By the way, the ingredients in your hand are not for making a meal." Have a good meal and make up with Yue."

I was a little surprised... I looked at Ariel who paused for a moment as if in surprise.

In this small wooden house, time seems to have stopped in this calm and warm atmosphere.It is best to stop like this, and I have prayed very seriously.

Just, is this really good?

"What... what, why should I do it for..."

"Yeah, there was a ten-second pause, that is to say, running out so disregarding your body is really to reconcile with Yue, okay? Brother, I'm so sad."

"So that's not the case, and as my brother saw, my body is much better. Although I could only lie in bed yesterday, I can get up and go shopping now..."

"That's why I'm worried."

While Ariel's eyes were in a trance, I got ready, and before my body fell to the ground, I took that slender body into my arms.

Ariel's physical strength is no longer enough to support her getting out of bed for a long time.

Of course, there will be times when I am in a good state, such as today, not only can I get out of bed and walk around.You can also go out and buy the ingredients you need.However, this is already the limit.

Ariel didn't know this.

This is a reality that no doctor in this world can reverse. Under normal circumstances, Ariel will always be like this...

"Ariel fainted again."

"Yeah, because you came back later than scheduled this time, Ariel is almost unable to hold on."

"Sorry, it took me a while to take away the experimental materials. Leave it to me next."

Throwing a large cloth bag on the ground, Yue took Ariel from my hand.

The originally dark left eye emitted vermilion light, the palm of the right hand was stretched out in front of the left eye, and a circle of hexagrams emitting vermilion light appeared on the back of the right hand——I did not look at the "treatment" that would be carried out every once in a while.I turned my attention to the cloth bag brought back from the back of the moon.

"Experimental material? But it's really strange, after all, you will use this as research material this time."

"He was originally a servant of a nobleman. I met him when I entered the nobleman's house."

The scarlet light gradually faded away.Putting Ariel, who was sleeping peacefully, back on the bed, Yue squatted down and untied the cloth bag.

"At that time he was about to be executed, because he said he didn't want to die, so I saved him."

"Hey, are you using the rescued children as experimental materials?"

"This is the price for saving him, and the kid named Geral himself agreed. Besides, I have a new idea." Yue looked at the hidden position of the six-pointed star circle on his right hand: "Humans will usher in death. Death It will generate power by itself, but the power of death that ordinary people can produce is so weak that it doesn't make much sense. However, if we can create a system that continuously absorbs the power of death and uses this power to continuously modify and replenish the body, then human beings will not be able to use it. will die?"

"That is to say..."

Even Ariel won't die.

This possibility is too good to be true, but it is also the reason why I started traveling, if this is the answer.

——Even if children are used as experimental materials.I would also have no hesitation.

"However, this is only at the theoretical stage. Although the use of the Eye of Sin can make the construction of the Death Force system possible, it is also risky. If it is not complete, the experimental subject may not be able to control the system. Time will instinctively burst out the power of death to absorb the power of death."

"That's why you brought this kid here, and then? Do you need my help?"

"No, Bai Lan stays here to take care of Ariel. Although the treatment just now can make Ariel wake up in half a day, but it is estimated that she will not be able to get out of bed alone for a month."

Re-tying the cloth bag containing the black-haired boy, Yue picked up the backpack and walked towards the door.

This experiment is likely to rewrite the fate of my sister, and it is likely to draw a perfect end to this trip, so of course it is not too late——

"Wait a minute. There's no need to be in such a hurry."

But I can't just agree with it.

Looking at Ariel lying on the bed like a puppet, an inexplicable emotion made my mouth move automatically.

"Do you still remember that time when Ariel quarreled with you before? Although it was just her anger on one side. However, Ariel went out to buy ingredients and came back to reconcile."

"Is this why Ariel lost consciousness sooner than expected?"

"Now that the ingredients are bought, it's morning, and Ariel will wake up in half a day. Instead of leaving now, it's better to wait for Ariel..."

"It's not necessary."

An extremely calm voice interrupted the words that had been laboriously organized.

"As I said just now, it's best for Ariel not to get out of bed alone this month. Let's talk about cooking and so on later. Now I'm going to find a secret place to conduct experiments."

The warm sunlight shines through the window, just shining on the moon.The man who is gradually robbed of something by the eyes of sin has always been so calm, and I know this better than anyone else.

"alright, I got it."

"Sorry, but we don't have much time right now."

The door opened and closed, and I sat on the edge of the bed, the atmosphere in the room had changed unconsciously.

In this room so quiet that I could hear Ariel's steady breathing, I subconsciously held my sister's hand. (To be continued. If you like this work, welcome to the starting point (reading.)
