The female devils I saved came to my door

Then, a fleeting light appeared in front of her eyes. Before Hilna could react, she was shocked to find that she just blinked her eyes and the environment she was in turned into a bright and clean place. study.

His stature has become quite short, and he is sitting in front of a small window sill, with a pile of books taller than himself in front of him.His little hand holding the quill was covered with scars from whipping, and beside him, there seemed to be a woman holding a pointer.

Sirna's eyes widened and she slowly turned her head, and then she saw her mother.That strict, stuffy, scary mother.Her originally pretty face was expressionless, like a terrifying sculpture.

"Sirna, why do you want to run away?" This person who resembled her "mother" in her memory looked down at her coldly and asked coldly: "Even before I died, you were unwilling to come back to see me. You Have you always hated me? Or are you afraid of me, and you don't dare to face me until you grow up? "

Hilna returned to her childlike state and felt her hands and feet were cold.She didn't know whether this was her mother's ghost or an illusion created by the underworld, but her fear was absolutely real.

"You are running away from me, Sirna." The mother continued: "You don't know whether you hate me, hate me, hate me or spurn me from beginning to end. You only dare to hide behind your teacher."

"No, no!" She was about to shout something to refute her mother, but the whip her mother wielded still made her flee from the door in horror.

After opening the door, what came into view was a sea of ​​fire.Just when she was stunned, Sirna discovered that her hands were covered with blood and she was in the main city of Ipoli in her childhood. That night, she lost control of her emotions and awakened her magic, hurting no less than a hundred residents in the city. life.

Afterwards, she fled to the swamp. It was not until her teacher and father found her and covered up her guilt that she was able to live safely until now.

In the blazing city, Sirna was staring at everything in front of her with dumbfounded eyes. Before she could say anything, she suddenly felt a hand grabbing her ankle.

She turned around and saw a burning resident. His flesh gave off a pungent and disgusting burnt smell. His eyes were staring directly at Sirna. He licked his tongue with difficulty and spat out vaguely, " You are a murderer," and then his whole body turned into a corpse.

After hurriedly throwing away the innocent person who was burned to death, Sirna ran around in the city filled with cries, curses and cries for help, hoping to find a way out of the city, but there was no way.

A burning house collapsed in front of Sirna. She subconsciously raised her hand to block it, but the falling masonry did not hit her. When Sirna put down her arm, the scene changed again.

At this time, she was in the manor of the former Mercy Bishop. That night, she obeyed the Pope's order and assisted Monroe in slaughtering the entire family of the Mercy Bishop who opposed the Holy See.The bishop's family estate left no one alive, and she was reinstated in due course.

The body of the compassionate bishop was right in front of Sirna's eyes.The bishop was nothing more than a corpse. The blood flowing out of her neck had solidified. Flies were flying around her wounds, making Hilna unable to bear to look at her any longer.

But Bishop Mercy's eyes did not close, but reflected Sirna's figure.

"You have maintained your position through despicable means. You always find excuses to escape your guilt. You have always been such a person." said the dead bishop.

The scene continues to change.

Silna saw Katrin lying on the hospital bed again.

The sad-looking blonde girl who is about to die has eyes full of sadness: "You have been looking forward to my death in your heart, haven't you? You are eager to monopolize your teacher, so you hate my clear and flawless emotions. You are disgusted with me, You will feel inferior in front of me. You can't take away Ciel's love for me, so you can only hate me despicably."

Then it was Lovna: "Sister, you deliberately took the teacher to Glory City with you, and also persuaded him not to take me with you. Am I so unworthy of the teacher in your opinion? I love him too... ...Now that the teacher has chosen to assist me, you realize that you regret it? After seeing the happy scene of Sharlanna and I living together, are you jealous? That’s why you also want to save the seven children on your own. Do you want to use this to defeat me?"

The seven unknown sons imprisoned by the Pope also stood beside Sirna and asked with doubts: "Ms. Sirna, are you willing to save us because you really want us to be free, or do you want to rely on Save our deeds to please our Father?

"You took it upon yourself to deprive us of our power, just to please your lover? We trust you so much, but in the end we only serve as your tool?"

Sirna discovered that all the things she feared and her most despicable and secret thoughts were all clearly visible to the underworld.

At this time, these illusions created by the Nether World were mocking her behavior directly, with the faces of those she had let down, as if they were trying to tear all her self-esteem and pride into pieces.

She was unable to answer these questions.

It felt like I was about to freeze in the ice and snow.

Finally, "Char" appeared.

"Sirna, I have always trusted you. I am willing to be your teacher because I believe you will become a great person."

This Ciel said something like this, but his face was full of disappointment: "You are just a child who was lucky enough to get the gift of magic, so you think you are superior to others. You are just a despicable and selfish person. You are jealous, greedy and selfish, you You always make your own decisions without telling me, and try to pretend to be cute and sincere to please me. But your true appearance is disgusting, and I am very disappointed in you."

"No...teacher, I..."

Even though she knew it was an illusion, the moment she saw those deep black eyes, Sirna would still instinctively want to beg for forgiveness and gain his understanding.

"I really didn't mean to deceive you...Teacher, I'm not that kind of person..."

"Stay here." At the moment when her consciousness relaxed, everyone, mother, Lovena, Bishop Mercy, Katrin, the nameless victim... all the people that Hilna had blamed herself for , stood beside her, looked at her, and dragged her into the increasingly soft ground.

These people gradually melted away, like blocks of wax burned by a flame.Gradually, these people, regardless of each other, all turned into the surging darkness like substance, surging around Sirna, almost drowning her.

That is the essence of the underworld, the ocean where souls and the delusions of the dead gather.

When the underworld was about to swallow Sirna completely, a pair of hands pulled her up. Then, Sirna, who had regained some consciousness, saw the door.

She swam over with all her strength, and struggled to close the broken door before the underworld dragged her back into the darkness.

This also declared her failure.

She couldn't answer the questions Youjie asked her.She also didn't have the ability to bear that terrifying curse.She was nearly shattered by just a casual glance at the infinite power of Hades.

150. Attack

When she returned to the Vatican to meet St. Ann IV, Hilna felt uneasy.

Originally, she thought she could control the power of the Nether Realm, but she was much more fragile than she expected.

In the past, Katrin, although her bloodline was cursed by the underworld, she could withstand the erosion of those powers day and night. She could also bear the curse for Ciel and transfer her power to him.

However, when Sirna faced the endless illusions and spying in the underworld, she almost collapsed due to fear, flinching and guilt.

This also made Sirna realize a cruel fact - she herself could not bear the power of the Netherworld, let alone bear the price for those children.

She also began to doubt herself.

She deliberately hid it from Charles and ran to the Holy See. Did she really want to save the seven children, or did she want to become a trustworthy family member of Teacher Charles's children like her jealous sister Lovna, and use this to Winning the joy of Teacher Charles?

When I hid the truth from Charles and didn't tell him, did I really not want the teacher and the Pope to conflict, or did I want to please both sides?

Are you a despicable and selfish person?

But no matter what, I did fail.As long as the power of the underworld still exists in these seven children, Saint An IV will not let them go.

Sirna could only go to the Pope's office, hoping to find a way to fool the Pope into believing that she had made progress, and then find an opportunity to rescue the children in the future.

She thought it would just be an ordinary conversation, but the Pope had already set a trap for her.

The magic circle specially used to imprison her has been arranged, and the spell used by the Pope to summon the soul of her daughter has also been formed.

Just waiting for Sirna's arrival.

When she first entered the Pope's office, Hilna actually noticed something was wrong.

There seemed to be some kind of magic wave of a high-level magic circle on the ground at the door, and the Pope himself, who was sitting in his seat, gave Hilna the feeling that no one was allowed to enter - as if she was looking up at a tall tower that could collapse at any time. .

"Your Majesty..." She tried to stay calm and not let the Pope notice that she was lying: "I have made progress. Please believe me, give me another month, and I will be able to peel off the power of the underworld from those children. . Please wait patiently for a while. In one month, the power of the Netherworld will be yours, and I will definitely not let you down."

"Yeah." The Pope hummed and didn't say anything. He just looked at Sirna quietly.

Sirna couldn't tell whether the Pope was doubting her, so she could only continue to find excuses to make up for herself: "Your Majesty, stripping away the power of the underworld requires a lot of patience and time. I'm not delaying, I..."

"No, Sirna, you don't have to pretend to me anymore." The Pope waited for her to hesitate for a long time before interrupting her: "I know you are lying. You never meant to be sincere from the beginning. Assist me, you just want to save those seven children, but you never thought of supporting my ideals. Even if you succeed in stripping the power of the underworld, you will not give that power to me, right?"

After being told what was on her mind, Sirna froze on the spot.

But at this time, before she could react, the Pope had already raised his finger and pointed at her, reciting a strange mantra.Weird magic runes had crawled onto her cheeks.

The spacious domed office suddenly became dark and depressing.The complex runes unique to high-level magic circles shone under Sirna's feet, and she was trapped in the magic circle.

Something unexpected happened, and Sirna didn't have time to react.

"Your Majesty, this..."

The Pope had already stood up from his seat. She looked at Sirna who was controlled by the magic circle with satisfaction. She was about to say something, but an accident happened again.

A thunderous roar woke up the dazed Sirna from her sluggish state.

"Sirna, run!"

The imprisoned girl turned around in confusion and saw the tall swordsman—Monroe.

He wasn't in the office originally.He seemed to have crawled out of the shadows below the ground just now.At this time, he was scarred and his eyes were blood red, as if he had just experienced a bloody battle.

"Sir Monroe, why are you here...and, this..."

"Sirna." The sword master showed a rare anxious expression: "This is a trap for you. From the very beginning, Saint Ann knew that you did not intend to cooperate with her. She planned to use your body as a means to resurrect Katrin. Container. I planned to stop her, but she used a magic circle to imprison her in the Netherworld... I didn't escape until just now."

As the nearly [-]-year-old warrior spoke, he punched the magic circle where Sirna was imprisoned: "I can't stop her anymore, she has gone crazy... You should escape quickly! Go!" Go to Charles...tell him the truth, stop hiding it from him! We should have told him the truth long ago..."

"Use my body... to resurrect Katrin?" Sirna understood instantly.

Monroe's punch had an effect. He really smashed a gap in the barrier of the array and dragged Sirna out of the array.

"Monroe, what are you doing?" The Pope no longer pretended, she frowned: "Why are you stopping me at this time? Have you forgotten our daughter?"

"In order to prevent you from making more mistakes."

After he dropped these words, he raised his head and glanced at the Pope, who was both his student and his wife. Looking at his lover who had been distorted by obsession, he suppressed the anger in his heart and spoke word by word. He explained: "...What I am doing now is for our daughter. To prevent her from being tainted by your obsession."

After saying that, he led Hilna, who had just reacted, and pushed open the Pope's office to escape.

However, when the two opened the door, they could have left the Glow Cathedral as long as they ran through the spacious and bright red carpet corridor and then passed through a walking hall.

But at this time, the corridor, which was less than a hundred meters long, was like an unreachable horizon, with no end in sight.

The knights and guards standing guard in the corridor also disappeared without a trace. The bright red carpet on the ground became like a putrid swamp, and the paintings on both sides of the corridor all turned into mottled and dazzling colors.The space was completely distorted, and the entire cathedral turned into a deserted boundary.

The Pope took action.At this time, she was standing in front of her seat, looking at Monroe and Hilna who were hesitating at the door with a disappointed face, without saying a word.

Monroe knew that he would not be able to escape without a fight with his wife.

"Mr. Monroe, what should I do?" Hilna was really panicking at this time.This was the first time she had faced such an almost unsolvable death.

Monroe thought quickly, and after making up his mind, he turned around and looked at Saint Ann IV.

At this time, he was not wearing armor or sword, so he could only clenched his fists: "As long as she stops casting spells, she can escape."

"Are you really going to attack me? Teacher?" The Pope had already torn off the mask on his face and faced Monroe with his true face.

At this time, her face was full of disappointment: "I really don't want to hurt you."

"Don't say these words to me again." Monroe had given up trying to convince his wife: "You are crazy."

"Okay, as you wish, teacher." Saint Ann IV said, a tear condensed in the corner of her eye, dripping down the mask on her face.

It's just that her face was expressionless when she cried, making the tears look quite fake.

——————****——————

"In the end, Monro failed. The Pope at that time was equivalent to the arrival of the underworld. The entire Glow Cathedral was her barrier. Countless believers came to Glory City because of the 'miracle' and prayed around the city day and night. , their fanatical beliefs will turn into the power of the Pope at this time.

"As for Monroe, as a synthetic human, most of his power comes from the Nether World. These powers are almost completely suppressed by the Pope. If he wants to fight against the Pope, he can only rely on fists and kicks. Moreover, he actually did not wave to his wife until the end. The determination to break up with fists.

“Silna is still imprisoned by the Pope.

"The ceremony to resurrect Catlin has been fully prepared. And Saint Ann IV would rather drain the power of the seven sons of the Netherworld to achieve his goal."

151. Arrival

Ciel felt his heart tighten.

After leaving Ipoli, he summoned a ghost creature in the form of a war horse as a mount, got on the horse's back, and let Sharlanna sit in front of him.Then, he ran non-stop towards the west.

The war horses of Youjie ran tirelessly day and night, carrying the two men all the way westward on their camels, heading straight for Glory City.

On the way, the heavy sword he carried on his back became heavier and heavier, and the "Ether" sword kept shaking and making a strange buzzing sound - which seemed to be a bad omen.

Charles became more and more anxious. He was not only worried about Sirna, but also worried about whether something bad happened to his father-in-law.

What happened in Glory City.

"Father." Sharlana knew that her father was eager to leave, but she still said the words she had been holding back for a long time to her father in this rare moment of solitude: "I have something to say to you."

Her voice was mixed with the sound of the wind as she moved quickly, making it unreal.Although Charles was anxious, he still remained patient with his daughter: "Ask."

"Father...I can feel it." Sharlana said: "You are very tired now. You have too many things on your mind. You love Sirna and Sister Lovna. You hope that they will succeed in their careers, and you also hope that they will succeed in their careers." They live happily.

“You care about us seven brothers and sisters very much, even if we are created by demons, you are willing to accept us.

"You also desire to use your knowledge and strength to improve people's livelihood, promote education, unite residents, and build a prosperous empire... Even if it is extremely difficult to achieve these goals, and it makes you the oppressor you despise, you still have to Do.

“But these are contradictions.

"It is precisely because of your ideals and pursuits, as well as your expectations for the two of them, that Sister Lovna works so hard to understand you and make a career in Ipoli, even with cruel means. Make achievements.

"After Ms. Sirna returned to Ipoli this time, she has been depressed, unable to feel that she belongs, and full of a sense of alienation from us for some reason. She left without saying goodbye soon. It was probably because she wanted to do something privately. In order to win your appreciation.

“And the seven of us brothers and sisters also possess the power of demons. As long as we use the power of the underworld, we will definitely cause killing and pain.

"Your expectations of us and your ideals will cause them to live in entanglement, make them jealous of each other, and hinder their happiness.

"Actually, there is absolutely no need for this. No matter it is me, Sister Lovna, or Ms. Sirna, we all just love you simply.

"Why don't you put these things down and stop thinking about building a great empire and benefiting the people. This time, after you find Ms. Sirna, I hope you can have a good talk with her and Sister Lovna. It's best to let They let go. No one would blame you if you ignore your dreams of building a prosperous empire.
