Becoming a winner in life starts with becoming a shadow

But it is precisely because of this that Alexia was very unhappy when she saw that her limelight was taken away.

After all, the one who should really attract the public's attention in the VIP seats should be Rose Oliana beside Beta.

As for Beta, who used the alias Natsume, she was just a new writer who had just emerged recently, and her status was not comparable to that of the princesses of the two kingdoms.

In fact, if the organizer of this event was not the church, and the acting archbishop Nelson, the LSP, had not invited Beta, she would not even be qualified to enter the VIP seats.

Especially at this moment, Beta's demeanor was very artificial, and every word and action clearly exuded a strong tea art atmosphere.

Of course, as a princess representing the kingdom, Alexia was still able to control her emotions, showing an impeccable smile and playing the role of a perfect princess.

Until she glanced at Beta casually and saw her unilateral mocking smile, something in her mind suddenly broke with a snap.

The next second, Alexia stepped directly on Beta's instep.

This time it was Beta's turn to feel uncomfortable. After all, her status was far inferior to Alexia's, so even if her foot was stepped on, she could only warn him out loud, and could not take any radical actions.

Looking at Beta's twisted face that was about to burst, Alexia felt inexplicably happy.

But she didn't realize that the moment she stepped on him, the magical aura on Beta's body surged.

Alexia was unhappy with Beta because of Beta's behavior at this moment, but Beta was unhappy with Alexia because she won the first place of Li De.

In this regard, none of the few insiders in the Shadow Courtyard could stand Alexia.

In Beta's view, Alexia, who was sitting on her left, was a pest who used the princess and classmate's position to get close to the beloved master.

This woman, who flatters the public with a disgusting and pretentious tone, waves her hands with a suspicious smile, and plays the role of an ideal princess, is too annoying no matter how you look at her.

Women like this who usually behave perfectly are often very sinister inside.

Although she didn't think that her beloved master would be fooled by such a shabby woman at first, there is always a chance of something happening.

And that chance has really become a fact that makes her hate it.

She is obviously better in ability, beauty, and thoughts about her master, so why did such a shabby woman win the first place?

What a joke!

Even if she lost to Alpha, she shouldn't lose to this black-bellied poor woman who shouldn't have appeared in the master's world!

In fact, it should be Alpha that should be Reed's first woman.

But Reed chose Alexia at that time mainly because he wanted to create a situation that would make Alpha and other women anxious.

As for the reason, it was actually to pave the atmosphere for the slave contract.

After all, he didn't know that the nine people he chose were willing to sign the contract.

If he had known earlier, Li De would not have chosen Alexia as his first woman.

It was because of this incident that Beta's dissatisfaction with Alexia far exceeded Alexia's dissatisfaction with her, which led to the sarcastic provocation.

In fact, if it weren't for Li De's pressure, Victoria would have the urge to run to the academy to kill Alexia.

After all, in her opinion, Alexia was not worthy of her master.

And as the most loyal servant, she should clean up this kind of pest for the master.

In fact, all of the new nine shadows have this idea, but she is the most radical one.

It is precisely because of this that Beta wanted to fight back and teach Alexia a lesson the moment she was stepped on by Alexia.

But Beta finally endured it with her loyalty to Li De and the Shadow Courtyard.

Of course, even if she didn't resist, Beta was constantly telling Li De about her grievances in a pitiful tone through the contract.

"Master, Alexia, this black-bellied woman is really too much. Not only has she been stepping on my instep, but she is also grinding it hard. My foot hurts so much!" Beta's delicate voice was transmitted into Li De's mind through the power of the contract.

"I can see it, but I can't do anything about it. Beta, just be patient. After all, who told you to be so beautiful and sexy? If Alexia wasn't jealous, she would never do such a rude thing in public with her temper." At this moment, Li De could only comfort her.

"My beauty and sexiness belong only to the master!" Hearing Li De's praise, Beta replied happily.

"I know that my Beta is a unique treasure!" Li De then gave her a little love talk.

Before wandering around the world, Li De had watched a lot of romantic dramas, so he still knew what to say in this situation.

"Master." Beta's voice immediately became moist.

"Ahem, Beta, that's enough!" Ipsilon's voice interrupted at this moment.

"Delta is also the boss's unique treasure!" Delta also spoke.

"Shadow, I will replace the last person." Alpha spoke after Delta finished speaking.

"Well, you just need to seize the opportunity." Li De said immediately.

When the few people talked about this, the trial was about to begin. Alexia took back her foot that was stepping on Beta's instep, and then the three women sat down.

Following Acting Archbishop Nelson's speech, patterns of ancient writing slowly appeared on the floor in the arena.

The ancient characters with white light spread out in a circle, and the entire arena suddenly burst into cheers.

The emcee who presided over the trial immediately introduced the first challenger.

Li De knew this person, and he was one of the knights' guards who came with Alexia.

After entering, I waited for a while, and then the man left the venue cursing.

Just as Li De thought, he was really not strong enough to summon ancient warriors to test him.

In other words, his one gold coin, which is the registration fee of one hundred thousand ordinations, was in vain.

Of course, he was not the only one who wasted his registration fee, it was the same for the next dozen people.

It wasn't until Annie Rosette, a traveler from Bekada, the Kingdom of Swords, appeared in the original work that the first ancient warrior was summoned. Then this female swordsman defeated the ancient warrior and obtained it. victory.

Of course, this ordinary was only for now. After the next hundred or so people challenged it, Li De realized how valuable this ordinary was.

Of those who appeared after her, only a few summoned ancient warriors, but these people still wasted their registration fees.

Because none of these people defeated the ancient warriors. Instead, they were carried out by the staff after their own defeat.

It's no wonder that warriors who pass the Goddess Trial can find jobs more easily. After all, this trial is indeed very valuable.

As time went by, this goddess trial came to an end very quickly.

"Here comes the challenger from the Kingdom of Oriana, George Lucas. Please welcome this challenger with applause!" Although more than a hundred people have been introduced, the master of ceremonies is still in high spirits so far. enthusiasm.

However, along with his voice, the person shooting out of the player channel made the audience stunned for a moment.

Isn't George Lucas supposed to be a male human?

How did she become a blonde female elf?

Where did this elf with a dark mask come from?

Just when everyone was puzzled, the ancient words in the venue reacted.

A burst of white light enveloped the entire arena, and then these luminous ancient characters gradually condensed into a figure.

When the light dissipated, a woman with long black hair and gorgeous violet eyes appeared in the center of the field.

Underneath a thin black robe is a deep purple gift and fair skin, exuding an artistic beauty as if the statue has come alive.

"Disaster Witch Aurora!" Beside Alexia, Beta could not help but sigh in a low voice.

"It was Aurora who was summoned?" Behind Beta, Nelson couldn't help but widen his eyes and said in shock.

"Disaster Witch Aurora? I've never heard of this name!" Alexia couldn't help but look at Nelson behind Beta.

"I haven't heard of it either, but you seem to know something, Natsume-sensei?" Rose on the side also asked.

"I just heard it!" Beta said, shaking his head.

After all, many ruins have been found in the Shadow Courtyard and a lot of ancient history has been interpreted, and some of them mentioned this name.

But no one knows exactly what kind of chaos this woman known as the Calamity Witch Aurora has caused and what kind of destruction she has done. Her mystery is second only to the mystery of Diablos.

While Beta was speaking, she took out a notebook from the deep ravine in her chest, and then sketched down Aurora's figure.

"Is Teacher Natsume recording the subject matter of the novel?" Rose asked curiously.

"Well, that's right! Well, Archbishop, if you don't mind, can you tell me more about Aurora?" After answering Rose, Beta took the opportunity to speak in a coquettish tone and tried to trick Nelson. .

Hearing such a soft voice that made his bones feel weak, Nelson said proudly: "It's natural for the two of you to know nothing about her. It should be said that Teacher Natsume would know, which surprised me a little. After all, In the church, this name is known to only a few people. Although I don’t know who this elf suddenly appears, I didn’t expect that she would summon Aurora. What a bad luck!”

"Is Aurora very powerful?" Rose asked curiously.

"She is the strongest woman in history. This elf on the field who doesn't know where she came from has no chance of being her opponent! Unfortunately, that's all I can reveal." Nelson said unhurriedly.

But his expression conveyed such a meaning to several women looking at him, and the rest would be known by looking at him.

Yes, Nelson, who knows Aurora's details very well, has a full understanding of Aurora's power.

"Let's begin!" Following Nelson's reminder, the three women also turned to look at the center of the field.

To be honest, Alpha was a little surprised when he looked at Aurora at the moment.

After all, in her opinion, the one she should summon is Olivia, the elf hero who is one of the three heroes.

At this moment, Li De in the audience breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, if Aurora doesn't show up, Li De will have to consider whether he wants to play in person.

Because for Li De, whether to unseal Aurora seems to have no obvious interest in himself at present.

So if Alpha really didn't summon Aurora, Li De would really consider whether to take action while Alpha was fighting.

Of course, now that Alpha summoned Aurora, Li De didn't have to consider this issue.

In this way, he could also watch the battle that had already begun in the center of the venue with peace of mind.

As for how the battle started, it had to start with the bright red spear that suddenly stabbed out from under Alpha's feet.

Just when Alpha was about to attack Aurora, her front foot suddenly retracted.

The next moment, a bright red spear stabbed out from the position of the footprint.

After Alpha dodged in advance, the bright red spear split into two and attacked Alpha.

On the other hand, Alpha seemed to have encountered such an attack a long time ago, so she dodged the attack on one side while cutting off the attack on the other side with the sword in her hand.

But this was not the end, but the beginning of the gorgeous special effects.

The bright red spears entered the infinite proliferation mode in the next second, and continued to chase Alpha who was moving quickly.

"Even if they gather in groups, mosquitoes can't kill powerful monsters!"

With a cold voice, Alpha injected the mutated magic power into the blade.

When the silver-white blade became extremely black, a terrifying slash destroyed all the chasing spears.

Then it continued to slash towards Aurora in the center of the venue.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Accompanied by a few roars, several extremely thick bright red spears emerged in the center of the venue to form three rows of spears.

After the first two rows were cut off by Alpha's slash, the three spears in the third row suddenly became thinner, and then turned into a large area of ​​thin lines full of thorns, covering Alpha.

After all, Alpha's slash only had one line, so Aurora chose to attack the surface.

For her, as long as she cuts the opponent's skin, she can basically rely on controlling the opponent's blood to determine victory.

Of course, this is something that only the original Aurora can do.

And facing Aurora's attack, Alpha is not panicked at all.

In fact, it is not the first time he has faced such an attack.

Yes, it is not the first time, because after returning from the pirate world, Elizabeth, who has become the ruler of the black tower of the city, has served as a sparring partner for Alpha.

Coincidentally, the attack method used by Elizabeth is exactly the same as Aurora's.

This also made Alpha guess Aurora's identity after seeing this familiar attack.

After all, there are only a few characters that can be summoned in the goddess's trial. Among them, the only character who can be more powerful than the three heroes is the sealed one.

So Aurora's identity is about to be revealed.

Of course, before the real confirmation, Alpha needs to get rid of the existence of the thought body in front of him.

Thinking of this, accompanied by a click, the sword in Alpha's hand began to emit a strong chill.

As the chill spread out instantly, it enveloped the entire venue, and the blood thorn net that Aurora condensed with magic power was instantly condensed.

Seeing this scene, even Aurora's eyes were a little surprised, and then her eyes looked at the sword in Alpha's hand.

At this moment, not only Aurora was staring at the sword in Alpha's hand, but many people were staring at it.

After all, in the eyes of many people, the sword in Alpha's hand should be as powerful as the ancient artifact inherited from the royal family of Midgar.

Alpha didn't care what the people present thought.

After using the power of the Snow Snow Fruit, Alpha didn't hesitate and rushed towards Aurora head-on.

As for the blood-colored thorns blocking the road, they didn't play a blocking role at all.

The strong cold air caused the temperature of the entire economic field to drop sharply in an instant, and many spectators couldn't help but shiver with their arms folded at this moment.

And every time she took a step, frost would condense on the ground, and then quickly spread out towards where Aurora was.

Then the sharp ice spikes rose from the ground and stabbed towards Aurora.

The next second, a bloody sickle of death passed by, and Aurora's body began to flash while she swung the knife to smash the ice spikes in front of her.

In addition, Aurora's eyes were obviously surprised.

Because Alpha's ability was very restrained by her ability.

Yes, at this moment, apart from the bloody sickle in her hand, Aurora's previous blood attack had been sealed by the rapidly falling temperature.

Aurora was not afraid of anyone snatching the control of her blood alone, but most of her blood was composed of water.

The condensed ice and snow belonged to Alpha's control range, and Aurora could not snatch it.

After sealing Aurora's long-range attack method, Alpha did not rely on the ability of the snow fruit to counter it remotely.

Alpha chose close combat. In just a few breaths, the two women fought hundreds of times in the arena, so fast that the audience could not see clearly.

However, this dazzling battle that blurred people's vision did not last long.

Half a minute later, Alpha cut off the death sickle in Aurora's hand with a knife, and opened a huge gash in her chest from the left shoulder to the right rib, and blood spurted out like a fountain.

Although her body was seriously injured, Aurora couldn't help but smile.

"As I said, this elf who came from nowhere was completely suppressed. How could she fight back? What kind of ancient artifact is that? It's so cold!" In the VIP seats, Nelson, who was watching the changes on the battlefield, couldn't help but raise his voice several points when he saw Alpha swinging his sword.

Because Alpha's attack was really beyond his expectations.

Of course, for Nelson, the real shock has just begun.

Especially when Aurora used intensive attacks, Alpha froze her directly and started a fierce close combat with Aurora, Nelson couldn't help but open his eyes wide.

Because he had never heard of the sword in Alpha's hand, and he shouldn't have heard of such a powerful ice ancient artifact.

In addition, the opponent she faced was the disaster witch Aurora!

Even if it was not a complete form, it was not something that could be easily solved.

Or, how could Aurora be solved!

And just when Nelson couldn't figure it out, there was a bright light in the arena.

"Alpha, leave first!" Seeing that the Holy Land began to respond, Li De immediately said to Alpha.

"Okay!" Alpha jumped up directly on the spot and rushed into the night that had already fallen.

After Alpha left, the light in the venue disappeared, replaced by a white door full of ancient characters, and at this moment the door was gradually opening.

"The Holy Land responded?" Nelson looked at the scene in front of him with a little disbelief.

"What response do you mean?" Alexia asked on the side.

"As you all know, today is the annual day when the Holy Land Gate opens." Nelson said while staring at the open Holy Land Gate.

"But I heard that the Holy Land Gate is in the Holy Church!" Rose also said.

"Yes, it is indeed in the Holy Church. But there is more than one door. The Holy Land will change the type of door according to the person knocking on the door. There are the Door of Rejection, the Door of Summoning, and the Door of Welcome. However, you will only know which one it is after you enter." Nelson stared at the door of the Holy Land and answered Rose's question.

"In short, the Goddess's Trial can no longer be continued. Let the audience leave." Nelson added.

The relevant personnel who heard it immediately executed his order.

Under the command of these people, ordinary audiences began to leave in an orderly manner, and the people in the VIP seats also stood up and walked out.

"No one is allowed to approach the door!" Seeing that the door was open enough for one person to pass through, Nelson issued an order again.

"Please leave as soon as possible!" Nelson said to the three women in front of him.

But just after he finished speaking, Alexia and Rose drew their swords and stood back to back.

"What happened?!" Nelson looked around belatedly, and then found that he was surrounded by a group of people covered in black robes.

"I'm sorry, but before the door closes, please stay here!" A pleasant voice like a bell rang in the ears of several people.

"You guys. Could it be...!?" Nelson seemed to realize something when he saw the people coming.

But he didn't say the name of the Shadow Courtyard, because Li De has not officially appeared yet, so the name of the Shadow Courtyard has not been called out.

The only thing Nelson knew was that there was a secret organization against the cult, and the people in front of him fit the description of that organization.

In the black group, the leading woman wore a long robe like a dress and walked towards the door gracefully.

After saying the first sentence, she didn't pay any attention to Nelson who was in shock. Instead, when she passed by Rose and Alexia, her eyes looked at the two women for a moment.

Instantly, the two of them felt their shoulders shake, and their backs were pressed tightly together.

So strong!

Compared to Rose, Alexia could feel a stronger sense of oppression from that sight, and she had an overwhelming presence that seemed to dominate the night.

Although for the two women, the woman in front of them was comparable to the woman in the previous venue.

And Alexia's eyes had already subconsciously glanced at the audience seats across the venue in the distance, and she was eager to hope that Li De would pay attention to the situation here.

After all, in Alexia's heart, only Li De could give him a sense of security.

If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have taken Sid with me without caring about the outside world's eyes.

It's really a ghost, watching the annual goddess trial, and I actually encountered such a moth thing.

How unsafe is the kingdom!

However, no matter how Alexia complained in her heart, Li De didn't appear beside her like the figure stepping on the seven-colored auspicious cloud.

"Ipsilon, the next step is up to you. Ladies, please be good children!" Gamma's voice sounded again.

Yes, Gamma still found time to come in person, but he was not called by Alpha, but was teleported by Reed.

After all, Alpha called Aurora, and then he would definitely not be able to enter the sanctuary through the main gate. If Reed did not find someone who could suppress Delta to lead the team, it would be difficult for him to rest assured, after all, Delta was famous for being reckless.

Gamma is currently ranked first among the Nine Shadows, Alpha is ranked second because of the restraint of his ability, and Elizabeth is ranked third.

Yes, Delta, who was originally ranked second, is now ranked fourth, which makes her very dissatisfied, but helpless.

Before she was strengthened by Li De's resources, she really couldn't beat the three women who have been strengthened.

"Leave it to me." Ipsilon nodded immediately.

"Wait! No entry to the sanctuary!" Nelson shouted immediately.

But his shout was ignored by Gamma, who immediately disappeared into the depths of the light gate with Delta, who had not spoken.

"So, what is your purpose in doing this?" Alexia didn't like this kind of development that was out of control at the moment.

"Shut up, stay here before the door disappears, otherwise don't blame me for being rude. In addition, Nelson, the acting archbishop, please come with us!" Ipsilon looked at Alexia fiercely before saying.

In fact, if it was Rose who asked, Ipsilon's tone would definitely not be so harsh.

But who told Alexia to be a pest who cheated Li De's virginity in Jiuying's eyes? He had already tolerated it without taking action to eradicate it, so how could he still have a good face.

"Uh"

Alexia, who was retorted by Ipsilon, looked solemn at the moment, because she felt the hostility of Gamma and Ipsilon towards her, and the eyes that looked at her like pests.

"What do you want to do in the Holy Land?" This time it was Rose who spoke.

"It's not about what to do, but what is there. As long as you stay here obediently, we won't harm you." Ipsilon's tone was much better, but he restrained Rose and the others with his eyes.

His beautiful eyes, as clear as lake water, stared at the two women without a trace of carelessness.

This woman is also very strong.

Although not as strong as the previous two women, she still has the oppressive feeling unique to the strong.

Damn, where did these strong people come from!

Alexia was a little crazy at the moment.

"If you act rashly, I don't know what this woman will do!" Ipsilon said as if he read the hostility between Rose and Alexia.

Following her line of sight, there was Beta, who was caught by the black-clad women under the alias of Natsume.

"Yes, I'm sorry." Beta lowered his eyes as if he felt very sorry.

"Teacher Natsume!" Beta's posture of holding back tears seemed to tightly pinch Rose's chest, who said Rose was a fan of Beta!

"You can also ignore her!" Alexia said in a voice that only Rose could hear.

"No!" Rose refused decisively.

"It's better to ignore it, after all, it's so suspicious!" Alexia said again. After all, strictly speaking, she and Beta don't like each other.

"No means no!" Rose refused very firmly.

Alexia felt a headache after hearing this.

During the question-and-answer period between the two, the gate of the sanctuary finally opened completely, and then began to close gradually.

After this scene, the people of the Black Group continued to enter the gate, and the captured Beta and Acting Archbishop Nelson also walked towards the gate.

Rose and Alexia could only watch this scene.

Even if Alexia wanted to do something, she couldn't act because there was no flaw.

In Alexia's eyes, everyone in the Black Group was very strong and well-led.

They followed the group in front in groups of three. Even if they entered the tiny gap, it was easy to imagine the scene of mutual cooperation between the groups. It was an extremely refined group activity.

With the entry of the frontline people, the gate was gradually closing.

"Don't, don't be so rude!" Beta, who was forcibly forced into the gate, was now performing a sad resistance.

"Teacher Natsume!" When Rose shouted, the strength of the sword in her hand increased a few points, which shows how good Beta's acting skills are.

"I, I'm fine, please don't worry!" Beta said in a trembling voice, and then he was taken into the door.

Rose, who was not far away, saw this scene with an expression on her face that looked like she was about to cry.

"How suspicious!" Unlike Rose, Alexia was not fooled by Beta's acting.

At this moment, the only ones left were Ipsilon and the tied Nelson.

After confirming that everything was fine, Ipsilon was ready to take Nelson into the door.

But Nelson struggled, and this struggle distracted Ipsilon's attention for a moment.

The next moment, a black shadow jumped down and swung a sword at Ipsilon.

"Well done, 'Executioner' Venom!" Nelson's laughter resounded throughout the venue.

As the sword flashed, two black objects on his chest flew directly up.

Then Ipsilon controlled the remaining magic power in the two parts flying in the air, making them maintain their shape, perfectly suppressing the magic power leaving the body, and at the same time attracted the magic power to instantly return to its original position and join together.

This move would be praised by anyone who is an expert.

This precise control that cannot be wrong even in millimeter units, and the speed of instant restoration, it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a unique skill.

Especially the shaking texture reproduced at the end, this is the reason why Ypsilon has the title of "meticulous". “Good job?” When Nelson looked behind him, he found that Ypsilon, which should have been beheaded, was standing there unscathed.

"Did you see it?!" Ypsilon's gloomy voice immediately sounded.

And this gloomy voice was accompanied by overwhelming courage.

"Did you see anything?" Ypsilon asked again.

"I didn't see anything!" Nelson shook his head quickly.

"Did you see it?" Ypsilon immediately asked Rose and Alexia.

The two women immediately shook their heads in denial with cannibalistic eyes.

"That's good, come here!" Ypsilon said.

The sound at this moment was like the sky clearing after the rain, which made people breathe a sigh of relief.

Not accompanied by Epsilon grabbing Nelson's neck and dragging him towards the light door, Nelson shouted: "Why are you still standing there, Venom! Why don't you save me!!"

"Stop screaming, that man's words are dead!" Ypsilon whispered in Nelson's ear.

As soon as Ypsilon finished speaking, the head of the executioner behind her rolled to the ground.

"Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeing this scene", Nelson's only voice was horrified at this moment.

But Ypsilon didn't care about him at all, dragging Nelson into the door that was about to close.

The door then closed and disappeared.

In fact, the moment before the door closed, Alexia's body moved forward.

It's a pity that she couldn't even take a step, her body was fixed in place by invisible force.

After the light door disappeared, Alexia's body immediately regained its mobility.

What happened just now? !

Naturally, Li De used telekinesis to prevent Alexia from entering the sanctuary.

After all, the attitude of Gamma, Beta, Ypsilon and other women toward Alexia is much worse now than in the original work.

If Alexia was better and more advanced like in the original work, Li De couldn't guarantee that she would be taught a lesson in the sanctuary.

In addition, Li De did not want Alexia to know about the Shadow Courtyard and the Order of Diablos.

"Shadow, a portal appeared in front of me!" After Alexia's problem was solved, Alpha sent a message to Li De.

"Come in!" The moment he said this word, Li De was already at Alpha's side, and then the two of them stepped into the dark red door in front of them.

After the surrounding environment changed, a very desolate room, a door, and a woman with limbs fixed to the wall appeared in front of Li De and Alpha.

"Are you the woman just now?!" Alpha looked at Aurora in surprise and said.

"I have indeed just seen it!" Aurora nodded, but her eyes were full of surprise at the moment.

After all, she had been sealed in the Holy Land for more than a thousand years, and this was the first time a living person appeared in front of her.

"So is this an invitation from you?" Alpha asked immediately.

"Invitation? I don't have that kind of plan. But, I'm very happy!" Aurora's tone was a little excited at the moment.

"It seems that this should be attributed to the changes in the sanctuary." Alpha said with a slight frown.

"That should be it. By the way, do you know how to get out of here?" Li De then asked Aurora.

"I don't know. I have no memory of going out. Although my memory is incomplete, among the people I remember, the female companion next to you is indeed the strongest, and she looks very much like me. A certain opponent. It would be nice if she was here in my time." Aurora said, tilting her head.

"It's an honor!" Alpha replied politely.

"By the way, why are you here?" Aurora asked Li De and Alpha with confusion in her eyes.

"Suddenly a door appeared, and as soon as I walked in, I appeared here!" Alpha answered.

"I'm confused!" Aurora was very confused at the moment.

"By the way, didn't you just have a battle with Alpha? How could you not know how to leave?" Li De asked Aurora.

"It was there when I realized it. It was my first time doing that, as far as I can remember." Aurora shook her head and said.

"Shadow, there happens to be a door, keep going." Alpha said to Li De.

After all, Aurora can no longer collect information here.

"There is a beautiful woman in front of you with her limbs restrained. Aren't you going to try to save her?" Aurora pursed her lips and said before Li De made a choice.

"Shadow, do you want to take her with you?" Alpha asked looking at Li De.

"Bring it with you, it won't cause any trouble anyway." Li De nodded and said.

The next second, after several cold rays of light flashed, Aurora, whose limbs were fixed on the gun, was finally let down.

Stretching out with a comfortable look and showing a smile that always looked a little nostalgic, Aurora said: "Thank you. This is probably the freedom that comes after a thousand years!"

"A thousand years?" Alpha was very sensitive to this time.

"It's just a rough estimate. After all, I don't remember it, but it must have been that long at least!" Aurora said immediately.

"Before we leave, we are partners, right?" Li De asked.

"Indeed, I want to be liberated, and you want to get out, right?" Aurora immediately understood the meaning.

"Indeed, before we officially cooperate, I want to ask again, do you know how to get out?" Li De looked at Aurora and asked.

"I don't know! But I know how to liberate. The sanctuary is a prison of memory, and there is a magic core in the center of the sanctuary. As long as it is destroyed, I can be liberated." Aurora shook her head firmly and said.

"Prison of memory? It turns out that this is a special space. It seems that the only way to get out is to destroy the magic core." Alpha analyzed immediately.

"The sanctuary will disappear because of this. It seems that Gamma needs to speed up." Li De also nodded and said.

"Has anyone else entered the sanctuary?" Aurora couldn't help but ask in a strange way.

"Well, we were together originally, but we were separated, but we can still contact each other through special means." Li De did not hide it from Aurora.

"But it's not that easy to destroy the sanctuary. This place is very close to the center of the sanctuary. Even if you want to refine magic, it will be immediately sucked away by the sanctuary core." Aurora suddenly opened her eyes wide when she said this.

Because Alpha used magic!

"How can this be right? Your magic is very strange. It feels a bit specious." Aurora looked at Alpha in amazement and said.

"Well, let's go ahead anyway." Li De just perfunctorily passed by.

"Okay!" Aurora immediately walked forward after saying that, and then opened the door without hesitation.

After passing through the door, the forest in the early morning appeared. The sun poured down through the gaps between the trees, and the grass moistened by the morning dew was shining.

Li De knew it in advance and was relatively calm, but Alpha was a little surprised.

"This is in my memory!" Aurora said.

"Your memory?" Alpha couldn't help asking.

"I have an impression of this place!" Aurora did not nod, but said something ambiguous.

After she finished speaking, she walked forward, and Reed and Alpha followed her.

After walking in the silent forest for a while, the view suddenly opened up. In the square where the morning sun was pouring, there was a little girl sitting there with her knees hugged.

It was a black-haired girl.

"She seems to be crying." Reed said.

"Yes!" Aurora nodded.

After walking in, Reed and Alpha bent down to look at her face and found that tears were constantly overflowing from her purple pupils.

"This child looks like you." Alpha looked at Aurora and said.

"Just like!" Aurora tried to fool her.

"Then what should we do?" Reed eased the atmosphere that was beginning to go wrong.

"If you want to move on, just end this memory." Aurora said slowly.

After Aurora finished speaking, Miss Direct held the girl's face, and then continued: "Even crying can't solve the problem!"

After that, she slapped her face with a snap.

"It's too much!" Reed couldn't help but complain.

"That's good, it's me anyway!" Aurora said nonchalantly.

"In the end, you admitted it!" Alpha looked at Aurora and asked.

But before Oro could answer, the world began to break, like a broken mirror, the forest in the early morning became shattered and disappeared into the depths of darkness.

The surroundings turned directly into empty darkness, and the three of them were suspended in the darkness at this moment.

"Let's go!" Oro said and walked forward.

Although there was no direction and coordinates in the darkness, it was not a problem, because Aurora was moving in the direction where the magic power was sucked away.

After moving forward a little, we were surrounded by the crimson light.

This is a battlefield dyed red by the sunset, and the blood-red sun shines on the battlefield on the horizon.

The fallen soldiers buried the earth, and the black blood imprinted its color here, extending to the end of the horizon.

"Is this an ancient battlefield?" Alpha couldn't help asking.

"Let's go!" Without giving an answer, Aurora seemed to know the direction to move forward and walked straight in one direction.

After a while, Reed and Alpha saw a bloodstained girl crying in the center of the battlefield. Without stopping, the three of them walked straight to the girl.

Even without seeing her face this time, Reed and Alpha knew that she was Aurora when she was young.

"Is she crying again!" Alpha had more and more questions in his mind at this moment.

"After all, she is a crybaby. Lend me the sword!" Aurora immediately said to Alpha.

Alpha did not hesitate, after all, she knew that she needed to do this if she wanted to move forward.

Taking the sword, Aurora stood in front of the girl with the sword. She had no expression on her face, and it looked like she had driven her emotions away.

At the moment Aurora swung the sword, Reed and Alpha noticed something.

After a few bangs, several corpses flew out directly.

"The corpse actually moved!" After kicking the corpse away, Alpha couldn't help but frowned.

Because what was moving at this moment was not just a single corpse, but the endless corpses on the entire battlefield were standing up.

"The Sanctuary is rejecting it. It would be difficult without you!" Aurora swung down Alpha's sword as she spoke.

As the girl's body spurted blood, the world was shattered again.

Li De and the other two stood in a dark world again.

"Thank you!" Aurora said smoothly when returning the sword to Alpha.

"It doesn't matter!" Alpha took the sword and put it back on his waist.

Then Aurora continued to move in the direction where the magic power was sucked away, until the light surrounded the three of them.

The center of the sanctuary has finally arrived!

On the other side of the sanctuary, without the intrusion of Alexia and Rose, Gama entered with Delta and others and immediately launched an investigation.

As for Nelson, he was directly burned to ashes by Gamma before he got close to the center of the sanctuary.

Everyone knows what the process in the original work is like, so there is no need for Li De to cause trouble for himself.

Anyway, we couldn't get much useful information from him, so there was no point in keeping the eleventh seat [Greed] of the Diavolos Order.

After getting rid of Nielsen, Li De and his team could leisurely conduct investigations in the sanctuary.

In the center of the sanctuary, Li De and the other three immediately saw a huge door after arriving here.

There were dark bloodstains on this door, and the front was densely engraved with ancient writings.

And several chains thicker than a human body were wrapped around it, tightly locking the door.

On the pedestal on the side of the door, there is a very luxurious sword.

From the looks of it, I know that this must be the so-called holy sword.

I checked it before coming to the Holy Sword, and the ancient characters on the pedestal had already been deciphered.

The Holy Sword can only be drawn by the hero's direct lineage!

"Alfa, go and try to pull it out!" Li De said immediately.

"Okay!" Alpha nodded immediately.

After seeing her holding the hilt of the holy sword and pulling it out easily, Aurora suddenly realized.

No wonder she found Alpha's face familiar. He turned out to be a descendant of Olivier.

"Shadow, are you going to open the seal directly next?" Alpha asked Li De.

"Wait a minute, Gama's side doesn't seem to have completed the investigation yet." After Li De asked Gamma using the power of the contract, he shook his head and said.

"Then just wait a moment!" Alpha said immediately.

It wasn't until a while later that Li De was notified by Gamma that he had collected all the information and pictures that could be collected in the sanctuary.

"Afar, let's do it!" Li De said immediately.

"Um!"

Following the sound, Alpha jumped up. The holy sword in his hand was like a hot knife cutting through butter. He directly cut off all the chains on the huge door, and then stepped forward to push the door open.

What was behind the door really surprised Li De.

It was a black lump that was a giant arm. Dark, thick, ugly and fat. It has sharp claws and pieces of flesh that are ready to move.

But at this moment, his arms were tightly locked by several other chains engraved with ancient characters.

Seeing this arm, Alpha showed a look of understanding on his face.

As for Aurora, her face was full of disgust, as if she had seen something disgusting.

"So how to deal with this?" Li De felt a headache when he saw the arm of the demon Diablos.

"We need to take some samples for research. As for the future..." Afar also said that he had not thought about it here.

"If possible, can it be destroyed?" Aurora suddenly said.

"Are you sure?" Li De couldn't help but look at Aurora in surprise.

"Well, I'm sure!" Aurora nodded with firm eyes.

"It seems that the only way to evaporate it is with that move." Hearing this, Li De was speechless. After all, he had no intention of using a move.

However, this also proves one thing in disguise, that is, although Aurora and Demon Diablos have the same identity, they are in two forms.

The normal form should be that of Aurora. As for the state of Demon Diablos, it should be caused by some new mutation.

There is a mention in the original novel here that Olivier's participation in the battle may have been the order of the cult to obtain new cells in the mutated form, which triggered the legendary battle between the three heroes against the demon Diablos.

Then in the original book, after Sid evaporated the entire sanctuary, the last words Aurora's will said before disappearing were: "If you find the real me, please kill me!"

This shows how much Aurora hates and hates her mutated self.

"It's been collected!" While Li De was talking to Aurora, Alpha had already collected samples from the arm of Demon Diablos.

"Then you leave first!" Li De said to Alpha immediately.

"good!"

After Alpha finished speaking, he closed his eyes and casually manipulated the space in front of him. A door appeared, and then Alpha walked into the door.

This method of opening the door was found by Gamma.

Seeing Alpha leaving, Li De didn't say anything, but directly pulled out the Nine Stars.

The next second, astonishing magic power continued to gather towards the Nine Star Sword.

"So you are more powerful than her!" Aurora couldn't help but cover her mouth. After all, even she in his prime would be helpless when faced with Li De's ultimate move.

"I·Am·AllRangeAtomic!" As Li De recited the spell to show off, a short-range all-round annihilation magic nuclear bomb was used by Li De.

The next second, the red and black mutant magic swallowed the entire space.

And Li De also disappeared in the Holy Land at this moment.

After a loud bang, the Holy Land disappeared on this day.

"It looks like you are going to disappear!" Li De said to Aurora who appeared beside him and had begun to speak transparently.

"It looks like it." Standing next to Li De, Aurora's face was full of relief at this moment.

Looking at the beautiful sunrise, Aurora continued to say: "It was me who called you, sorry for lying."

"It's okay!" Li De waved his hand and said.

"Besides that, there are other lies!" Aurora continued.

"It's all over." Li De shook his head and said.

"I've always wanted to disappear early and forget everything. Now I can finally be free. Thank you, I'm very happy." As she spoke, Aurora's body became more and more transparent, and the forced smile seemed a little sad.

"If you find the real me, please kill me." Aurora's figure disappeared with an inaudible voice.

"Kill you." Li De said and his figure also disappeared.

"Where did you go last night?" Early in the morning, in the hotel room, Alexia, who was leaning on Li De's chest, couldn't help asking.

It's not that she got up early, but she didn't sleep at all, after all, Li De didn't come back all night.

Especially after Li De released a magic nuclear bomb, the whole Lindblum was awakened by the huge vibration.

Although Li De did not cause the terrifying scene like in the anime, the whole Lindblum was like a large earthquake.

The center of the lake near Lindblum also set off a huge wave of tens of meters high.

So Li De was discovered by Alexia as soon as he returned to the hotel.

"Last night's events were so interesting, I must follow up and go to the Holy Land to have a look." Li De said casually.

"Did you get any useful information?" Alexia continued to ask.

"It's useless. No matter what information is in there, it is written in ancient characters, so it's hard to find anything. But your annoying bald man died in the Holy Land." Li De said slowly.

"Is Nelson the bald man dead? It seems that the Holy See needs to re-select the acting archbishop. By the way, what's the matter with the huge noise this morning?" Alexia finally asked the point.

"I blew it up!" Li De answered directly.

"You blew it up?" Alexia looked at Li De in shock.

"I don't understand ancient characters, so I can't open the door to leave the Holy Land. Naturally, I can't get out after entering, so I blew up the Holy Land." Li De spread his hands helplessly and said.

"Uh" After listening to Alexia, she didn't know what to say.

"Can I learn this move too?" Alexia asked immediately.

"It depends on your performance, but don't expect me to teach you in a short time. After all, this move requires very high control of magic power." Li De shook his head and said.

"Really? I'll remember this sentence." Alexia saw that Li De did not refuse, and immediately showed a bright smile on her face.

For the magic nuclear bomb move, Li De did not intend to be stingy.

When Alexia teaches, Li De will see when the time comes, but as for Alpha and others, Li De will teach them as long as the conditions are met.

After all, Li De is not Sid in the original book. In the case of being unable to go to other worlds, he can only use this move as a bottom line.

Of course, Li De will not popularize it, but only limit it to Nine Shadows.

As for Alexia, when he can't get through, he will teach her an abridged version.

After the incident in the holy land of Lindblum was resolved, Li De and Alexia also embarked on the return journey.

And soon more than a month passed.

In a remote manor in the capital, two people stood opposite each other in a small training ground.

The next second, with a puff, one of them disappeared.

The other person who saw this scene turned around slowly, and then waved his sword to block the sword that suddenly appeared.

Then the figure kept flashing, and the clanging sound of metal collision was endless.

It was not until ten minutes later that the constantly flashing figure returned to the original place, and then half-knelt and panted.

"Not bad, great progress! But Alexia, you still rely too much on [Shave], which makes the attack method too single." Li De looked at Alexia and said.

"It's just you, Sid. If it were someone else, it would be impossible to dodge a move." Alexia said indifferently.

"Teaching you this move is to give you a trump card, just like [Moon Step] and [Paper Painting]. If this move is used all the time, it will not be a trump card." Li De said a little speechlessly.

"Okay, I get it. It's because you practice with me that I keep using it. After all, the more proficient you are, the better the surprise attack effect will be when you really need to use it." Alexia is not stupid, how could she not know the principle of keeping something in reserve? Li De's worries were actually unnecessary.

But Alexia enjoyed Li De's futile concern, and even deliberately used words to induce Li De to say so, just like before.

"It's up to you, that's all for today." Li De said immediately.

"Sid, tomorrow is a holiday, do you have any plans?" Alexia asked.

"Yes!" Li De replied briefly.

"Oh!" Alexia couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

"See you next time!" Li De turned around and walked away.

This is not because he didn't recognize people, but mainly because Alexia's recent tea art level soared, which made Li De emotionally immune.

In fact, for Li De, going to the Pirates of the Caribbean to perform the mission will not delay him much.

In his opinion, the rest time on weekends is completely enough.

The reason why he didn't take time to perform in the past two months was just to use up the rest time he got before as much as possible.

After all, the difficulty of the Pirates of the Caribbean mission is hell-level, and the rest time obtained is a full 360 days.

If the previous rest time is not used up as much as possible, the time afterwards cannot be accumulated, after all, the maximum number of days that can be accumulated is 360 days.

This is the reason why Li De is not active in carrying out the mission.

You must know that the rest time belongs to his own private time, which is truly his personal time.

In fact, Li De doesn't even want to waste even one day of such time.

But sometimes, it is impossible not to waste it.

For example, now, Li De has more than two months of rest time left. If he uses up all this time, the summer vacation will be over.

So Li De can only waste a little time. After all, he will wait until school starts again to carry out the mission. If there is any accident that delays the time, he will have to say hello to Alexia again.

Although Li De doesn't mind, it is difficult not to be noticed if he misses a lot of time in a semester.

Therefore, Li De would rather waste some time than wait until the end of the vacation to carry out the mission.

That night, after notifying Jiuying, Li De accepted the mission and went to the Pirates of the Caribbean world.
