With the help of the demon Ram, Chen Ce always locked Evelin's location.
The raven's eyes saw her...a blurry figure surging in the darkness...like a summer heatwave...
She was bleeding and her injuries were gradually recovering... but it was far from enough. She needed to cause more pain to restore her strength...
So she began to search for suitable prey...
She stopped...
In a spacious but not luxurious manor...
very……
look familiar.
Chen Ce's right eye overflowed with a trace of blood.Continuous and excessive use of demonic power put a considerable strain on his body.
But he didn't dare to stop and rest - instead he accelerated his pace even more anxiously.
[You look very panicked...] The voice of the peeping devil sounded in my mind, [She is at the end of her strength and has to rely on indiscriminate hunting to recover from her injuries... You can catch up with her slowly... This is already a long time. An interesting game of cat and mouse...]
"No..." Chen Ce frowned and did not dare to slow down at all. "Evelin is attacking Sona..."
[Sona...is she the mute woman who played the piano before...]
"Compared with the title mute, maybe 'aphasic' sounds more polite."
[Haha... She is just a weak woman... She also has some magic in her piano, but she is also weak... The secrets in her heart are not interesting... She is meaningless...]
"No, she's important."
【Not...】
"You do not understand."
[…] For some reason, Ram suddenly fell silent.
Chen Ce didn't have time to guess what this moody demon was thinking now, he just wanted to rush to Sona's side as soon as possible.
Evelin's power is limited, but for Sona as an "auxiliary"...
Still too deadly.
Hurry up... Hurry up...
Chen Ce tried every means to increase his speed and finally arrived at the Bouvier family's manor a few minutes later.
The lights were on inside, and the melodious music of the piano continued to spread, almost spreading throughout the entire street.
Hearing the sound of the piano, Chen Ce felt a little relieved, but he was far from relieved.
He jumped up from the street and rushed towards the second floor of the manor like a cannonball.
Phew——!The floor-to-ceiling windows shattered.
caught up.
"Miss Sona!" Chen Ce immediately saw Sona sitting on the bed playing the piano desperately - her face was pale and she was sweating profusely. It was obvious that her magic power was overloaded.
There was still a trace of blood on her fair neck, which was obviously injured by Evelin.
As for Evelyn…
She was controlled by Sona's frantic music.
The magic power of the magic piano [円华] was completely directed at her alone, and the wonderful energy made her dance uncontrollably.
Of course, the lasting effect and time of this control are also very limited.
Sona almost collapsed after playing for less than half a minute, and Evelin was not completely controlled - her demonic power could suppress some of the "notes", allowing her to slowly approach the target while dancing.
If this continues, I'm afraid Sona will only be able to hold on for another half minute at most - after half a minute, Evelin who escapes from the trap will instantly take away her life.
But it's okay now.
Because Chen Ce is here.
[Mr. Chen Ce...? ] Sona's gentle and melodious voice sounded in her mind, with a hint of doubt - she couldn't see the face under Azakana's mask, but that kind of temperament made her think it should be the "old friend" she knew. .
"It's me." Chen Ce finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Leave the rest to me."
[No...she is terrible...Mr. Chen Ce...I want to beg you...go take my mother and Kashina away first...they...they can't have anything happen to them...]
Sona's fair face looked even paler as her body was overstretched, as if she might faint at any time.
Facing the girl's request, Chen Ce stepped forward slowly, stretched out a hand and placed it on the strings.
The sound of the piano stopped instantly. ==========================

=======================
Sona's already numb fingers were forced to stop.
She suddenly showed an expression of disbelief, [Mr. Chen Ce... you...? 】
"It's okay, just leave it to me." Chen Ce patted the girl's spread long blue hair and showed a warm smile. "I have worked hard for you before, please take a good rest now, Miss Sona."
[Mr. Chen Ce...] Sona was still a little uneasy, but the hand on her head had convinced her.
So she plucked the strings one last time.
The note energy no longer shot towards Evelin, but penetrated into Chen Ce's body.
This time it's a mellow tune.
【Swift Sonata】
Chen Ce, who absorbed the energy of the note, was immediately strengthened - his speed became faster.
He rushed straight towards Evelin, who was barely able to escape, but the latter was somewhat unable to react.
After just one encounter, the weak Evelin had one of her hands cut off.
She let out a scream of pain, and the footsteps downstairs suddenly became more rapid.
"Sona! Sona, what's wrong with you!" Lestara and Kashina's nervous voices overlapped.
Chen Ce glanced in the direction of the door, then looked back at the scene outside the house - the crowd on the street was getting bigger and bigger.The melodious sound of the piano and the sound of fighting were too obvious in this silent night.
Not only curious ordinary people, but also many demon hunters came from the other side of the street...including even Jonathan and others.
"Tsk..."
"Are you nervous?" Evelin was keenly aware of the change in the other person's eyes, and her painful wail suddenly turned into a playful taunt. "Then it seems... we have to stop here tonight."
After saying that, she used her sharp claws to break open the wall and escape from the other side.
Chen Ce wanted to chase, but the girl holding Qin behind him prevented him from chasing her - if he ran away too, then all the blame here would fall on Sona.
The magical aura around here is too strong...it will never escape the eyes of the demon seekers...
What's more, Sona was already listed as a suspect by the demon searchers...
【what are you waiting for? 】 Ram's impatient voice suddenly sounded, "Hurry up and chase her... don't let her run away...!" 】
"No..." Chen Ce responded in his heart, "As soon as I leave, Sona will be in trouble..."
[You want to give up chasing demons for a mere mortal? 】
"Sona is really important..."
【No……!Go hunt her down! ] Ram began to roar.
But Chen Ce remained indifferent.
[This is the content of the contract between us!It’s a trading condition!You have to collect secrets for me!The devil's secret is more important! 】
"Sorry, Ram..."
[Those who violate the contract will be punished! 】A terrifying demonic power came out along with Ram's angry scream.
Then it "pierced" into Chen Ce's body in the opposite direction.
He couldn't help but frown at the sudden severe pain, but he still didn't chase after Evelin who was running away. "If you want to be punished, just punish it...just this once..."
【Chen Ce...! 】
Ram's anger could not be quelled, and Chen Ce remained silent.
There were more and more footsteps on the street, and the warning voice of the demon seeker could be heard.
Sona's door was knocked open directly - Lestara and Kashina arrived first.
"Sona...!" Lestara rushed straight to her daughter, her trembling embrace showing her concern, worry and nervousness.
As a member of the Knights, Kashina first noticed the "uninvited guest" in the room - a strange man wearing a mask.
"Who are you..." She drew out her sword vigilantly, blocking her mother and sister behind her with her short body.
Seeing this, Sona immediately explained to the two of them in sign language: [This is Mr. Chen Ce. A terrible woman attacked me just now... Mr. Chen Ce is here to help me, don't be nervous...]
"Chen Ce?" Lestara suddenly remembered what Sona had told her before - at the mourning meeting that day, it was a demon searcher named Chen Ce who helped Sona get out of trouble.
Kashina also remembered who the name represented.
The tense atmosphere disappeared instantly, but the tension was still spreading.
Chen Ce closed his eyes and used the raven's vision to track Evelin's whereabouts and see how many demon seekers were on the street.
Evelin seemed to have completely given up on the idea of hunting her... She was running away outside the city...
As for the demon seekers...
hiss--!
A strong sting suddenly hit him, and blood flowed from Chen Ce's eyes again.
[Those who violate the contract are not worthy of using my power...! ] Ram's vicious voice sounded in his mind.
It was obvious that the contracted demon was really angry.
Chen Ce also had to observe the situation on the street directly with his naked eyes - the crowds of people almost surrounded the entire manor.
Now even if she stays, it will be difficult to help Sona clear away the suspicion... Those demon hunters will definitely think that she is either the black magician himself, or has colluded with the black magician - after all, this is the second time Sona Something like this happened around me...
And they all have the same magical aura... The demon hunters are not stupid, they can definitely guess...
There is also the issue of the sound of the piano... Too many people heard Sona's piano sound tonight...
Should we all...
"Mr. Chen Ce!" Just as Chen Ce was thinking hard about countermeasures, Lestara, who was holding Sona, spoke - her tone was firm and full of wisdom:
"Take Sona away!"
"Huh...?" Chen Ce didn't react for a while.
And Lestara had already pushed her daughter out, "If you stay here, you will definitely be caught by the demon searchers. You must leave quickly... and it will be difficult for Sona to escape suspicion if she stays here, so I I want to ask you...to leave with Sona!"
"Mother, why is this?" Kashina was still a little confused.
"We are going to fake a 'tragedy' that does not exist..." Lestara said while picking up the glass fragments on the ground.
"We are going to pretend that we were attacked by a black magician...and then Sona was taken away...maybe this is not convincing, but at least it can clear Sona's suspicion on the bright side, and I will use more Lies to weave this non-existent tragedy..."
"The most important thing is... as long as Sona is not here, those demon hunters will not be able to investigate Sona for the time being..."
"What...?" Kashina was stunned.
But before she could figure it out, Lestara slashed her fair arm with glass shards.
A large amount of blood gushes out instantly, and her face quickly loses color.
"Mother!" Kashina shouted anxiously, and quickly stepped forward to wrap the wound on her mother's arm with clothes.
