Erica stood under the scarlet blood moon, letting the blizzard cut her cheeks.

She stared at the monstrous red demon in a daze, as if it had fallen into madness, tearing a crack from the gloomy sky and ruthlessly ravaging the two giants as tall as two hills.

In its hands, the two giants were like two insects, being tossed back and forth by it.

Until they became fragmented.

The red demon held the huge body dripping with blood in both hands and roared to the sky as a winner.

That posture was like showing off to people, showing off its strength and cruelty.

A few phantoms flashed in Erica's eyes.

She touched her slightly hot forehead and felt a little dazed.

She understood the horror of the devil better than anyone else.

Because she had faced that kind of existence.

Almost powerless to resist.

At the moment the devil appeared, she also had doubts in her heart.

Why did the devil appear here?

Like Gwen, Erica unconsciously linked the demon incident in the back mountain of the academy with Victor.

She clearly remembered that the greedy demon, which was as terrifying as the Black Mountain, appeared on Heni's body.

Heni was Victor's assistant.

Since she fell into a coma, she had only heard about the follow-up of those things.

No one mentioned Heni in the demon war. Instead, the one they mentioned the most was the pig-headed professor of the Reiser family.

Devon Reiser was described as a carrier of the demon in that incident.

She had doubts that the person possessed by the demon was obviously Heni.

But no one mentioned her name.

Behind this incident, it was as if there was a hand controlling everything, and arbitrarily shifting the spearhead of the incident.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in Erica's mind, making her subconsciously look for Victor.

While everyone else was cheering for the demon that had killed two giants, she was the only one who looked at the farthest point.

Those two figures.

Erica's pupils shrank slightly.

She was very familiar with that figure and would never make a mistake.

Professor Victor.

Is the person in his arms Knight Commander Gwen?

Erica looked at Gwen lying in Victor's arms, the two of them looked intimate.

"..."

What were they doing?

Suddenly, a flash of light lit up in front of her eyes, and her attention seemed to be forcibly diverted to the side of Victor's shoulder.

A crow's single eye flashed with blue light, and it turned its head and stared at Erica closely.

As if guided by the strange blue light, Erica couldn't help but fix her eyes on the crow.

Suddenly, an extremely violent breath came towards her.

Blowing her golden hair, dancing irregularly on the snowy field.

Her eyes seemed to be invaded by a wonderful picture.

The snowfield under the red moon began to become unstable, and began to tremble like a wave of mirrored lake water.

In a blink of an eye, a white picture jumped out of her eyes.

At this time, she was standing on the clouds, and several towering pillars stood up from the boundless white.

A golden sun hung in the sky far away, and the warm breath shone on Erica's body, as if she had instantly left the snowfield.

The huge white temple slowly emerged from the giant pillar array, and a very huge bird kept flapping its wings in the blue sky and flew around the temple.

The huge airflow lifted Erica from the clouds, and she kept spinning and flying in the vast space.

It seemed that in an instant, freedom was held in her hands.

The clear power gradually merged into Erica's body.

Under her golden eyes, a white rune slowly appeared. It was a rune symbolizing the wind.

Inheritance——

A flash of lightning suddenly flashed through Erica's mind, and such words appeared subconsciously.

She saw the dark crow in a trance and felt its light body.

And the crow's playful laughter gradually began to echo in her ears.

"It's this power again."

Erica was a little puzzled.

She still remembered that in her dream, this existence who claimed to be the evil god gave her the power of inheritance.

And this time, it was the wind.

Erica slowly stretched out a hand, as if to test it, and gradually stimulated the wind element in her body in her hand.

Even the runes and formations did not need to be carved. A strong airflow instantly gathered from all directions and began to swirl in her palm.

The power of the wind.

When she raised her head again and tried to look at the crow.

But she heard a hissing sound.Hoarse cry.

‘Rage, you should go. ’

Instantly, the picture in front of Erica's eyes collapsed crazily. After a few seconds, she felt the red light and the whistling cold wind around her, which made her realize that she had returned to the northern border.

“This....”

After receiving the order, Lightton threw the giant's remains in his hand into the water.

It stretched out its hand and tore a huge red crack in the sky. With a sudden force of its legs, it jumped into the scarlet crack.

With the departure of the demon, the gloomy clouds gradually dissipated, and the red full moon became bright again.

The blood-colored snowfield was reflected in front of everyone, which looked even more terrifying.

Everyone witnessed the appearance and departure of the demon in this war.

Only Erica looked at the malicious one-eyed crow on Victor's shoulder.

There was a huge tremor in her heart, which lasted for a long time.

《It was the demon who saved us! 》

《Knight and demon, who is justice! 》

Countless slogans were engraved on the buildings of the Pale Magic Society and spread wildly among the territories.

In the war of annihilation of the barbarians, the warriors of the Pale Magic Society won an absolute victory.

Most of the barbarians were annihilated and driven out of the northern border.

The Magic Society won a great victory! Only a part of the brave wizards died heroically in order to block the way of the barbarians.

However, no one expected that this victory was brought by a demon.

The moment the demon came to the world, the fate of the barbarians had been completely determined.

The scarlet sky seemed to be welcoming the arrival of the demon, and the bloody ocean was like the galloping home of the giant crocodile.

That brutal and extremely exciting scene became an eternal memory in the hearts of the members of the Pale Magic Society.

At this moment, the Pale Magic Society fell into a long-unseen celebration.

All the members took off their robes, put on their own clothes, and sang and danced around the huge bonfire in the territory.

Everyone raised their glasses, their faces were filled with red smiles.

The warriors stationed in the northern border no longer have to worry about the invasion of the barbarians.

After this battle, the two major barbarian clans that had lost most of their main forces were no longer a threat.

As for other small tribes, the Pale Magic Society did not take them seriously.

The members even surrounded Vladimir, dancing together and drinking barrels of wheat wine.

Erica sat quietly aside, watching the cheering scene.

Although the cheerful atmosphere can infect people, she is not a person stationed in the northern border all year round, so she naturally cannot experience the high joy of the warriors and residents of the northern border.

However, she can still feel the hatred of the barbarians directly.

Her mood is a little subtle and complicated, holding her head and tasting the bitter wheat wine in her hand.

A figure slowly sat beside Erica.

It was Amelia.

Erica knew that she was the only third-level mage in the Pale Mage Association, and she was the leader of the mage group.

The two sat silently aside for a long time.

Finally, Amelia spoke first.

"Our power is very small, and everyone lives in the territory governed by this Mage Association."

"The land for survival is being reduced layer by layer, and even information is difficult to transmit to the outside."

Sooner or later, there will be a day when the Pale Mage Association will fight those brutal barbarians with all their might and risk their lives.

Otherwise, simply waiting will only bring absolute slow death.

Erica listened quietly and continued to remain silent.

A lollipop was handed to Erica, and it was still wrapped in the familiar candy paper.

Erica looked at the candy in a daze and slowly took it.

"Thank Victor for us."

Amelia stood up and walked back to the cheerful crowd.

Erica lowered her head and looked at the candy in her hand.

As if she had made a decision, she stood up.

A blizzard was blowing, and Victor stood alone on a snowy cliff.

The windbreaker on his body kept making noises in the wind and snow.

The crow stood on his shoulder, letting the wind and snow blow its feathers away.

Erica appeared behind Victor, looking at his lonely back.

"…Professor."

Victor did not look back, and Erica continued:

"I saw you on the wanted poster... "

"But I believe you! You must have been wronged."

He turned his head slightly and glanced at Erica indifferently.

Erica's eyes met Victor's, and seeing his cold eyes, her heart jumped slightly.

But she did not look away because of this, and continued to stare at Victor.

But she heard the voice of the person in front of her slowly sounded:

"I didn't expect that you alsowill be here."

Erica was slightly startled, and Victor had already turned back:

"They are not wrong, I did personally cripple Angus and his heir."

Listening to Victor's statement of the facts, Erica suddenly became very excited.

"That's what they deserve! "

After staying here for a few days, she also knew how infuriating the actions of those northern knights were.

But, in a way.

No one could find fault with Angus.

He did fulfill the task of guarding the northern border and preventing the barbarians from invading the northern border of the empire.

As for those people close to the northern border?

Who made you live in such a dangerous place?

Erica could even recall the ugly and disdainful faces of those nobles when the lives of those people in the northernmost border were threatened and they sought help from the capital.

If you have the ability to leave the northern border, who would be willing to stay in this barren and destitute place?

They can only talk without any pain.

Erica always believed that Victor did nothing wrong, even if he was wanted by knights all over the northern border.

"Really."

She couldn't see Victor's face clearly, but she could hear the faint smile in Victor's tone.

"But even so, they still stayed safely in the northern border and lived a carefree life. "

"The barbarians have been completely wiped out. Who will get the credit?"

Erica was stunned.

The existence of the Pale Magic Society was not decided by the royal family.

The real nominal group guarding the northern border is still the group of inactive northern knights.

Under Angus' influence, the nobles of the capital naturally trust the northern knights first.

There is no way around it.

Even if Angus's behavior of not saving the people was exposed, he did not fail in his duty in terms of law and duty.

Even if the emperor looked down on him, he would not arrest Angus for this reason.

What's more, Angus was once the emperor's subordinate.

The nostalgic old emperor would not remove Angus from his position for such a reason.

So, where can we find a powerful reason to convict Angus?

Suddenly, Erica thought of something and froze in place.

"...Devil? "

The devil brought all the anger of the people in the North, incarnated on the ice field, and eliminated all the barbarians.

Then what caused the anger of these people in the North?

It's not just the barbarians.

There are also those northern knights who did nothing.

But, will the nobles really believe that the devil appeared because of Angus?

At this moment, Erica thought of the conversation between the evil god and the devil.

"Professor, so the devil is actually because of you..."

"Keep it a secret for me. "

Victor's voice was indifferent and hidden in the heavy snow.

Suddenly, a howling hurricane blew suddenly on the snow cliff, making Erica unable to open her eyes.

She tried to control the wind element in her body to stop the wind and snow, but it was useless.

"What's going on..."

Suddenly, a white rune slowly lit up on the collar of Victor's windbreaker.

In Erica's eyes, a ball of white smoke slowly formed around Victor.

In the smoke, it seemed to form the body of a creature. Shadow.

It was a giant white bird.

It soared above the sky, soaring in the sky with fluttering goose feathers, like the king of the sky.

At some point, Victor had already stood on the giant bird.

Erica stared with wide eyes, watching the giant bird stir up a violent whirlwind.

The wind gradually rose, in the blink of an eye.

It penetrated the pale clouds, and the violent airflow carried a strong air wave.

Disappeared from Erica's sight.

She stood alone on the snow cliff, watching Victor leave.

Lost for a long time.
