Chapter 67: Devil ~ Asking for a Monthly Pass~)
"boom!"
Although the doors and windows have been tightly sealed, the unlucky family must have no way to sleep well today. Oh, except for the gentleman who had been knocked out by the window, he seemed to be unable to wake up for a while.
The rumbling sound outside the window woke the two sleeping children, and the hostess also shouted the gentleman's name in panic. She needed the pillars of the family to preside over the situation. She didn't even dare to approach the confined doors and windows, because those doors and windows were obviously very abnormal.
"ah!!!"
Evelyn, who was shaking her body directly with a punch, screamed out loud. This was not because of the pain, but because of the frustration of being unable to fight back.
The demon chose to abandon the physical body amid the screaming, which was undoubtedly a very wise choice, because the behavior of maintaining the physical body would only turn her into Reed's sandbag.
The dark shadow that Evelyn turned into expanded rapidly, and in the blink of an eye it enveloped Reed and Bertrand, and the badger bear, and then spread farther.
The demon who feeds on pain wants to use the same trick again. She has used this trick more than once to escape from Reed's hands. In the thick and sticky dark shadow, Evelyn's body without physicality fluttered quickly.
In the darkness and in the shadows everywhere, even if a existence like Reed who is favored by the spirit of the strong wind cannot catch the demon Evelyn, who grew up in the shadows.
"bump!"
However, a ball of extremely fierce light exploded in the shadows, and the shadows Evelyn called were dispersed.
Her strange and erratic figure suddenly disappeared, which made Evelyn seem a little confused and at a loss because this was a trick that Reed had never used before.
"Do you think the same trick will work again? We are not without any progress."
A slightly smug smile appeared on Reed's face. He obviously made a lot of preparations to capture the demon, and the demon's reaction did not disappoint him.
"We have been escaped like this by her before seventy-two times. Captain, you must not let her run away again this time!"
However, the straightforward Bertrand directly dismantled Reed's station. They and Evelyn had fought too many times.
At the beginning of each fight, when the demon was unwilling to accept and wanted to fight back instead of running away, they would beat her up, but when the demon realized the situation and decided to sneak into the shadow and escape, they had no choice but to do anything to this creature.
"Don't worry, I won't do this time."
Reed pulled out the "slash" and "slash", and a layer of blood-red magic appeared on the demigod weapon. Reed rushed towards the demon who was invisible with the blazing light.
"One sword kills evil, one sword suppresses souls."
Two demigod weapons swung and slashed Evelyn's body without physical body, instantly tearing the demon's body apart. This time Evelyn finally let out a painful wail, because every sword of Reed burned her, burning her soul that should have been unconscious.
The shadow is constantly spreading, but it cannot cover the blazing light. The bursting light will only dissipate itself, and no power can annihilate it.
"Sentinel of Light! Holy Stone!"
Evelyn recognized the thing that burst out with a blazing light. While she was panicking, she avoided Reed's attack, she transformed into a whip rope with a spike to fight back.
But her whip rope couldn't touch Reed at all. The sharp blade in Reed's hands could easily cut off everything.
Facing this ancient Yodel, the young demon Evelyn had no power to fight back, just like before, but this time she could not even escape. The holy stone of the "Sentinel of Light" could illuminate all the shadows, and she felt fear for the first time.
"Everything will die, and some creatures need a little help. Are you willing to accept my help?"
The Demigod Blade, attached with scarlet magic, swung forward and slashed Evelyn's shadow body again, and the devil let out an unwilling roar and a painful wail.
This is not the first time Evelyn tasted this unspeakable pain. When she first met Reed, she was almost killed by the other party.
It is precisely because of this that Reed has the ability to cut her shadow body that she keeps running away.
"Devil, why don't you answer my question? How does this pain taste like? Can it make you feel more unforgettable compared to the pain of others you've tasted?"
Every sword of Reed made Evelyn's breath weaker. She was no longer able to retort at Reed. She felt that her consciousness might dissipate at any time.
However, the light of the holy stone that had begun to dissipate made Evelyn seem to have seen a life-saving straw in a desperate situation. When the light completely disappeared and the shadows enveloped her again, she could escape the clutches of the Yodel.
"Sher."
Perhaps it was because his spirit was too focused, or maybe it was because his consciousness was blurred, and Evelyn felt as if she had heard the sound of the extinguishing light.
"call!"
The shadow burst out from Evelyn's weak body, quickly swallowing everything around her, and also swallowing Reed, holding the scarlet double-blades. She was enduring pain, and Evelyn, who had accumulated the power of shadow, seized the opportunity.
She had no courage to fight back, but quickly fled with the cover of the shadow. She knew that she had no chance of winning, and the fear of returning to nothingness dominated her.
"Oh? Do you think you have seized the opportunity? Do you think you can escape? Do you want to refuse the help I provide?"
The voice of the Yodel was not as furious as Evelyn expected, but with a hint of joking, which reminded her of what she often did when training her prey, which made her feel chill.
"bump!"
Another muffled sound, and a hot ball of light exploded around Evelyn, dispelling all the shadows and completely exposing her figure to Reed.
Evelyn looked at the Yodel man. A holy stone pistol with a glimmer of light at the muzzle was being held in the hand by the Yodel man. The joking smile on the "vicious" bear face made Evelyn unable to tell who was the demon for a moment.
"Maybe you can call me, the demon's demon? It sounds pretty good, or else, the demon hunter can do it, it sounds cool anyway, doesn't it?"
Reed's words exploded in Evelyn's ears, and she knew that the Yodel man had done on purpose, and he wanted to let her die in pain, just as she had done to humans.
