I'm not that kind of orc

Demons and Amalgams (3)

I began to sense according to the totem token that Roland made for me before wearing on my waist, preparing to release the beast soul call.

With the blessing of magic props, the time-consuming spells were quickly released, and the blood mist gushed out, gathering into a half-adult wilderness giant bear——to attract the guy's attention, it is better to be bigger. Creatures with more momentum are more suitable.

While the beast soul was gradually taking shape, I moved my feet and opened a little distance, so as not to turn around and if the mage used magic to attack the beast soul, the blind cat would encounter a dead mouse and hit us.

"Oh, the beast soul summoning, have you used the token of love I made for you?" Roland's joking voice sounded directly in his mind.

This guy doesn't feel nervous at all without making a move...

"Hey, I wanted to ask you a long time ago, what kind of relationship has the two of you become?" This time it was Feilan's voice, and she was inexplicably concerned about a strange question at this juncture.

"Damn it, we are still fighting now, please help me to target the enemy! Then it's your turn to do it!" I responded to them in my mind, shouldering Feilan who was carrying me, and at the same time controlling the wilderness bear Roaring and charging towards the elf mage.

The elf mage was still staring bitterly at Arsena who had knocked down the horned demon and beat her up, and raised his hand towards her, as if he was brewing some spell to launch a surprise attack.As a result, the wilderness bear roared and almost jumped up in fright. Just when he turned his face in horror, the beast soul of the wilderness bear had brought him into the attack range, and flew out ——Although it looks like a heavy body, as an active predator, the Wilderness Bear runs quite fast, and this elf mage is also relatively weak in vigilance, and has no clue about the appearance of the beast soul. be on guard.

However, the beast soul was still unable to catch him. The moment the giant bear jumped up, the shield surrounding the elf mage's body changed shape like ooze, turning into many black devil claws to grab at him. On the giant bear, it pressed its pounce forcefully, and even started to tear the giant bear's body in reverse, the severely injured beast soul turned into a cloud of blood mist again.

It took a while for the elf mage to recover, and said with a sneer, "Hmph, playing such a small trick..."

The moment when he was relieved that he had blocked an attack was when his defenses were at their weakest.

"Now! Get rid of him! Don't show mercy!" I said in a low voice.

"You don't need to remind me!"

Feilan, who had already recited the spell silently, suddenly raised her hand. At the same time, the ground binding spell was activated under the feet of the unsuspecting elf mage. superior.

I watched the elf mage bend his knees involuntarily, and fell heavily to the ground.My ears caught the slight sound of bones twisting. The elf mage twisted his expression in pain, and fell sideways on the ground with a miserable scream.

Feilan was indeed merciless. This heavy pressure was placed on an elf, a race individual whose physical strength is not outstanding. The femur bones of both legs were probably crushed directly. Strange, but the demon claws surrounding him didn't disappear.

"That layer of protection is the shadow demon that is the summoned object protecting him, not his continuous casting, so it won't be interrupted like this." Feilan slapped her tongue in trouble.

"But he has no ability to fight back now, so that's enough. Your Highness Alsena, use your holy light to drive away the shadow demons surrounding that person!" Roland's voice sounded.

Arsena obviously heard her instructions, and turned her attention back to the elf mage. The horned demon that attacked her had already been beaten into a pool of black blood by her. The black mist dissipated.

"May God's glory shine on the world, and protect us from this filth..." Arsena leaned on the ground with her war hammer, and began to concentrate on reciting prayers.

The elf mage sensed her movements, and a look of panic appeared on his pale face. He tried to raise his hand twice, as if he wanted to use a spell to counterattack and interrupt Arsena, but the severe pain in his leg Apparently it was keeping him from concentrating.

Arsena's prayers were successfully finished, and a wave of strong light turned into a rain of arrows and fell, directly smashing the claws of those demons, and then the beam of light fell, and under the illumination of the holy light, the shadows around the elf mage also fell on the ground. The horned demon transpired and turned into a cloud of black mist, which quickly dissipated completely.

I put down Feilan, stepped out of the invisibility spell, and strode to the side of the elf mage. Without the protection of the shadow demon, he was powerless to fight back against me.Before he stared in horror and tried to raise his hand for the last resistance, I leaned down and brought the blade of the tomahawk close to his neck: "Don't move."

He panted heavily, looked at the ax in my hand, and didn't speak.

"You lost, now, quiet your pet immediately." I stared him in the eyes and said menacingly, trying to get him to control the synthetic beast as planned.

"Or kill me?" Realizing that he could no longer resist, he actually raised the corner of his mouth ferociously.

"No, I will use my means to make you understand that sometimes it is easier to die." I squeezed his chin with my other hand, and the strength of my fingers was almost to the back of his sides. Teeth pressed down.

His face twitched in pain, and then he began to laugh strangely: "Hehehahaha... Do you think, do you think..." He struggled to make a sound, "If you listen to what you say and do it here, you will really be able to Is it better——Gee!" He suddenly widened his eyes, and bloodshot eyes appeared in his eyes.

I noticed his appearance, his body was also twitching slightly, and finally tensed up suddenly, as if he suddenly suffered pain other than a broken leg.

I moved my gaze down subconsciously, and then I noticed something moving on his neck—it was a string of tiny tattoo-like runes, they were replicated on his skin, wandering and spreading.

"This guy is cursed, it looks like he will attack if he fails." Roland's familiar fell on my shoulder again.

"This... is not the type that can be untied easily." Feilan also approached.

"Hehehe, at least you are right in what you said." The elf mage squeezed out a sinister smile in pain, and said angrily, "Sometimes... it's easier to die!"

I couldn't help frowning at these words, and I became vigilant and pressed the ax closer to his neck: "Don't play tricks on me!"

"Hey hey hey hahaha... Do you think I'm still afraid of this kind of threat? Today I will at least... take one on the road!" The more he laughed, the more crazy he became, and then he said inexplicably, "Okay, I am willing ...pay the price! Help me...kill them!"

"Brock, kill him! Quick!" Roland's voice suddenly exploded at this time.

"Yeah——" Before I could digest this sentence, Arsena not far away suddenly let out a scream.

Demons and Amalgams (4)

I followed the sound subconsciously, and the sight that appeared in my field of vision made my heart stop for a moment: a pitch-black giant with no facial features and no texture could be seen appeared there at some point. Appearing from the deep pool-like shadow, only the upper body was exposed, but it was already more than three meters high, and the twisted claws attached to its arms were even more disproportionately huge.Now he held Arthena tightly with one paw, as easily as a human being holds a mouse.

Arsena's condition didn't look optimistic. She even had her arms tied in her claws, and the warhammer had already been dropped, so she couldn't resist at all.Her expression was a bit painful, because the armor she wore had been slightly deformed—of course, if she wasn't wearing this armor, the bones in her whole body would have been crushed to pieces the moment she was caught.

"The Lord of Shadows..." Roland murmured.

"Hehehehahahahaha it's too late, the contract has been reached! For demons, voluntary sacrifices are not the same as forced sacrifices. Enjoy... the high-level demons... kill...you... These... bastards..." The elf mage lying on the ground became increasingly difficult to speak, and at the same time his face, his body, his flesh and bones melted like butter roasted by fire Going down, just like those thieves who were refined into magic power by him as sacrifices, they turned into dirty black magic power, and then flowed to the black half-length giant.

Black magic is a magic system that offers sacrifices and pays a price in exchange for power. As long as the price paid is enough, there is no upper limit to that power.

He sacrificed himself to summon the mighty demon.

After the puddle of his molten magic flowed into the shadow beneath the giant, I heard the daemon utter a bell-like voice in a language I had never heard.

At the same time, the strength in its hand increased significantly, and Arsena, who was held tightly by him, seemed a little suffocated, but she couldn't make a sound when she opened her mouth, and the armor on her body rattled.

"Let go of her, you son of a bitch!!" In desperation, I stood up abruptly, and with all my strength, I aimed the battle ax in my hand at the giant's head and threw it there. cut open.

However, when the spinning battle ax approached the giant, a shadow barrier appeared around the giant, and the battle ax was bounced away abruptly.

"That's the King of Shadows, an advanced demon of the Shadow Demon, and it also has the protection of the Shadow Demon, which is far stronger than that released by ordinary mages!" Roland's voice sounded, "The contract has come into effect, and it will execute it. The order left by the devotee! Don't approach it recklessly, you can't kill it with your current equipment and means!"

Damn it!Isn't this much more difficult than the elf mage just now?

At this time, the giant moved again, it raised its other paw, and slowly moved towards Arsena's head, which it hadn't been able to pinch to death.

A huge tremor exploded in my heart, and my body moved before I thought about it. I let out a battle cry and rushed towards the monster, grabbing the tomahawk that fell on the ground halfway.

"Brock!?"

I ignored Roland's voice.

My charge somewhat attracted the demon's attention. From the shadow under it, countless claws of the shadow demon suddenly protruded. The arms were thick and long, like a python.The claws kept stretching, and then they concentrated on me like a beast looking for prey.Now I had to stop and swing my battle ax to slash at the claws coming from the front, while turning around to avoid the sneak attack from the side.The claws protruding from the shadow seemed endless, and after cutting off a few, more protruded. In a blink of an eye, I was surrounded by the claws of the devil.

At the same time, the devil's movements didn't stop, its claws could immediately unscrew Arsena's head, and I couldn't save her in time. There is no way to deal with it.

Unprecedented fear clenched my heart and made me feel like I was falling into an ice cellar.

I opened my mouth and wanted to shout subconsciously, but a voice sounded behind me first: "Stop!!"

It was Feilan's voice.

The Lord of Shadows actually stopped moving, and even his claws around me froze in place.

The demon slowly turned the head without features and turned to that side.

what's going on?

I held my tomahawk across my body, wary of the claws, and turned my head back.

In the field of vision, Feilan stood there, staring in horror.

She held up her left hand, wearing the demon ring left by the elf mage on her finger.

"...What are you going to do?" The ominous premonition made my scalp tingle.

"I...I...I..." Feilan panted nervously, her chest rising and falling.

"You..." I swallowed my throat and shook my head subconsciously, "Don't do stupid things!"

The elf mage paid with his life to summon and serve this mighty demon.

Then if you want to stop it... of course, you need to pay the price of the same level.

Feilan gritted her teeth to stop chattering, as if she had made up her mind.

Then, with a sad expression on her face, she said to the Lord of Shadows in a trembling voice: "I...I am willing to pay the price, let her go, and...disappear from here."

When I heard this sentence, I felt like my mind was suddenly empty.

The long claws of the frozen demon moved again. I looked over vigilantly, but found that they did not attack me, but retracted into the black shadow again. At the same time, the Lord of Shadows was holding Alsena's claws Released, Arsena fell to the ground, rolled over in pain, and coughed violently.

Then the shadow king's huge body collapsed, retracting into the shadow below him like those claws, and this pool-like shadow also shrank rapidly like a wet spot in a hot pot, until it disappeared.

The Shadow King carried out Feilan's orders.

But this also means that the contract of sacrifice has come into effect.

I slowly turned around and saw Feilan kneeling on the ground, I don't know if it was the strength taken away by the devil's contract or her legs were weak.

Seeing me turn around, a forced smile appeared on her face as pale as a piece of paper: "It's the only way... otherwise everyone will die... This time, this time you I'm not qualified to say that I'm cowardly..."

I could feel my brain buzzing.

"But, but..." Her voice choked up, the smile on her face became more and more unbearable, big tears rolled down her face, just like she used to be when she was scared, "But I really... ...I really don't want to die..."

Only this time, she didn't try to be brave.

After saying this, she opened her eyes slightly, and then hugged her body tightly as if feeling the pain: "Hmm!"

At the same time, she began to "melt" like that elf mage, and the dark magic power flowed down from her body and turned into a black mist to envelop her. I watched her body shrink in the black mist.

"No! No! Don't!" I frantically threw away the tomahawk, rushed to reach out to the black mist, but unexpectedly touched the warm and soft touch.

Didn't... completely disappear...

I froze for a moment, then carefully stretched out both hands in amazement, and hugged her out of the black mist.

The blond-haired young girl curled up quietly in my arms and fell asleep.

Demons and Amalgams (5)

"This..." The sight in front of me made me stunned.

The shrunken Feilan was not conscious, but her breathing was fairly steady, and her face was flushed. Apart from being unconscious, she didn't seem to be in any serious trouble.

In short, she is still alive, alive, and has not been completely turned into a puddle of mud to be fodder for demons like that elf mage.

"Don't worry, she's fine. Thank goodness it's working."

There was a slight tingling on my shoulder——Roland's familiar owl landed on my shoulder again, and at the same time Roland's voice of relief poured into my consciousness.

"It works? What do you mean?" I noticed that she seemed to know something, "What did you do? Why did this girl become like this?"

"It's nothing, it's just that when she lost her life because of the devil's contract, she triggered the juvenile spell as insurance, allowing her to regain a life."
