Devil [GL]

Chapter 24

After hearing Metvia's affirmative reply, Bai Wanwan didn't hesitate much, and directly melted the shackles on her wrists with magic energy.

Perhaps it was because the Eswino continent had not been invaded by demons for a long time. This pair of handcuffs was very useful for ordinary magicians or warriors, but they couldn't resist the magic power and energy at all.With ease, Metvia broke free and regained his freedom.

It happened to be night at this time, and the darkness gave them a certain shelter.Their movements were very light, and the situation outside was too chaotic and noisy, most people didn't notice their small actions.

Even if someone noticed, but out of contempt for Metvia and trust in the handcuffs, they would only think that she was struggling uselessly, and would not think that she could really escape.

And what Bai Wanwan calculated was precisely the "contempt" in their hearts.

She doesn't have great strength, she doesn't have a huge backstage, and she doesn't have many friends who can go through life and death for her.

On this road, although there will be a little help from Bruno, she is the only one walking from the beginning to the end.

At a disadvantage, why not be scheming?

A weak woman's ability is far greater than what those people who only value force think.

Bai Wanwan looked at Metvia who was freed from the shackles, and the corner of her mouth slightly curved, revealing a gentle smile.

"Miss, wait a moment, wait until the turmoil outside becomes bigger." Bai Wanwan said softly.

Countless emotions rolled in her deep black eyes, with a little imperceptible madness, as if something was brewing invisible.

Metvia noticed this, frowned, and suddenly had some bad premonitions in his heart.

But she didn't say anything, just patted Bai Wanwan's wrist lightly, using the little mana in her body to calm Bai Wanwan's emotions silently.

Bai Wanwan was not far from those civilians at this time, and could easily be affected by their emotions.

Countless people's panic emotions add up to a lot, and passively absorbing them all will make her extremely painful...but it can also make her stronger.

From that time in the backyard of Post's house, she suddenly developed a magic energy, and when she was able to use the magic power that she couldn't use normally, she discovered that her ability was related to devouring, and she needed to be stimulated by the negative emotions of the people around her.

But in the final analysis, this ability is still related to the ubiquitous darkness and ugliness.

She lives by it, is strong by it, and as long as they exist, she will grow freely and have an inexhaustible source of energy.

Those hideous-faced nobles and those panic-stricken civilians were the nourishment she depended on for survival.

Bai Wanwan tilted her head and listened to the noise outside for a while, determined the timing, and suddenly patted the iron railing that closed Metvia.

Squeak.

With a clear and loud sound, the iron railing was opened.

Metvia realized something, and immediately tore off half of the long skirt, leaped, and jumped off the seat.

Her long black curly hair drew a beautiful arc in the air, and her figure was as vigorous as if she had never been locked in a dungeon.

When the nobles on the high platform heard the movement, they turned their heads instantly and looked at the scene in front of them in shock.

Mrs. Percival was the first to react. She didn't care about pretending to be a mother and daughter, and immediately yelled out in a shrill voice: "Quick! Where are the knights! Go and stop them!"

She knew how difficult it was to deal with her scheming daughter. If she really escaped, she might never be able to catch her again!

The "compensation" promised by the Demon King and the Empire to her and her husband will be completely gone!

The knights behind Metvia heard the order and quickly raised their guns to attack her. Unfortunately, their movements were too slow, and Metvia swiftly dodged them.

Under the panicked and angry eyes of everyone, Bai Wanwan smiled lightly, reached out to catch Metvia, and gave her the staff in the storage ring.

"It's important to escape, you cover, I'll grab the horse first!" Bai Wanwan said quickly in her ear.

Although she knows magic skills, she hasn't studied for a long time, so she is definitely not as proficient as Metvia.

At this time, most of the knights have gone to deal with the order outside, and she can still deal with the two remaining knights for the time being, but it is better for Metvia to do things like cover.

Upon hearing this, Metvia took the staff without any objection.

The two looked at each other and quickly separated. Bai Wanwan covered Metvia and retreated. Seeing the surrounding knights approaching, he shot directly and killed them mercilessly.

But Metvia shifted her attention to the candle lamp beside her, she didn't know what to think of, she had an idea, and suddenly opened her mouth to read the spell about the wind.

"Great Goddess of Wind, please grant me the ability to summon the wind—"

"She wants to turn off the lights! Stop her!"

Sharp-eyed people discovered Metvia's intentions, but their movements were much slower than Metvia's speed of chanting.

As Metvia's words fell, the candle lights surrounding the trial seat were extinguished a lot, and more than half of the entire trial courtroom was instantly plunged into darkness.

Many aristocratic wives have already started screaming, and the judge collapsed on the seat in panic.

Outside the court were countless chaotic and crowded civilians, and the nobles inside the court were restless, and the whole scene fell into chaos in an instant.

"Bruno, come back quickly! Take the knights and surround the sinners first!"

The old General Post had experienced many battles and quickly reacted.He issued an order on the spot, drew out the sword at his waist, and came up to arrest the two of them.

The magician beside him made a decisive decision, prepared to chant a spell and summoned a brighter flame.

Seeing this, Metvia's face sank, he gritted his teeth, and continued to chant spells to fight against them.

Her dark green eyes skipped over countless people with hideous faces, and finally landed on the girl with black eyes not far away.

Iris, I can't hold on for too long... You must come here quickly.

She didn't say a word, but her meaning was quickly caught by Bai Wanwan through her eyes.

Sensing Metvia's situation, Bai Wanwan turned her head and calmly looked at the knights who were about to rush up, not intending to give them any chance.In the darkness, her magic power endowed her with sensitive enough facial features.

She saw the timing, and when most of the knights were uncomfortable due to the sudden darkness, she directly attacked a knight not far away.

After the knight was accidentally seriously injured, Bai Wanwan jumped, kicked him off the horse, and took away his horse!

The horse immediately raised its front hooves and let out a struggling growl.

Maybe it's because the surroundings are bright and dark for a while, or maybe a large number of knights are crowded together, making it difficult to show their skills.Bai Wanwan took the opportunity to use some magic energy, causing the surrounding knights and horses to feel fear, and immediately ran away in a panic.

Being constantly hit by people around and being accidentally scratched by friendly guns, the formation of the Knights gradually began to become disorganized. Bai Wanwan saw the opportunity and directly grabbed a poor knight who had fallen from the horse, and directly sucked all his blood away with his devouring ability. Energy and vitality.

She lifted the knight's body high with her right hand, her eyes were burning, unstoppable: "Who dares to stop me?!"

Under the flickering lights, the originally healthy young man was sucked out of his vitality in the blink of an eye in her hands, and turned into an old and shriveled corpse.

This picture beyond everyone's imagination immediately startled the surrounding knights, causing their movements to pause for a moment, and the eyes they looked at Bai Wanwan became vigilant.

What kind of magic is it that can suck away people's life force so quickly! ?

Seeing that everyone around her was frightened by her move, Bai Wanwan seized the opportunity, and before the other knights could react, she reached out and snatched their guns, rode on her horse, and hurried to Metvia's side.

"Miss, I'm here!"

Bai Wanwan rode a steed, armed with a spear, broke through many obstacles, and rushed towards Metvia with a firm expression.

Her long hair was raised behind her, her eyes were bright, she broke through countless crises, and stretched out an arm to Metvia... just like a real knight.

Metvia was slightly taken aback, and immediately reached out and grabbed her hand tightly, allowing herself to be lifted from the ground by Bai Wanwan and taken away.

The next moment, after sitting firmly on the horseback, she immediately used up the last bit of mana and chanted a spell, attracting a large amount of yellow sand, covering their way and way.

Relying on the wind and sand released by Metvia's swing, most of the knights behind them were confused.

The two staggered on their horses and fled the trial court quickly, throwing all the roars and screams behind them under the heavy hooves of the horses.

After leaving the trial court and leaving the crowded civilians behind, they did not choose the main road, but rode their horses into the complicated alleys, and started an exciting escape journey.

Bai Wanwan and the others know that the army will soon catch up. Although Bruno will help them cover, but because the army is too powerful and Bruno's power is limited, he can't help too much, and he can barely help them escape. outside the city.

And the fact is exactly the same. After they fled to the edge of the imperial capital, they could clearly feel that there were more and more pursuers behind them, and they were getting closer to them.

After disrupting the opponent's line of sight by various means, and hastily fleeing to the river not far from the city, Bai Wanwan finally decided to throw off the pursuers not far behind here.

She took out two dummies wearing the same clothes from the savings key, tied them tightly to the horse's back, gritted her teeth, jumped off the horse's back with Metvia in her arms, and fell into the icy river .

With a dull sound of falling into the water, they successfully escaped their shells, and used horses and dummies to attract most of the pursuers to other places.

Choosing to jump into the river was originally an idea that came up suddenly, but fortunately, Bai Wanwan considered a lot of situations and prepared a lot of things before.She released a piece of driftwood from the storage ring, using it to slowly float herself and Metvia to the surface, and began to breathe normally.

Relying on the swimming skills they learned earlier, the two cuddled up to each other and barely swam into a reed by the river, barely hiding here through hiding spells.

At this moment, Metvia's whole body was soaked, and her long black hair was wetly draped over her shoulders and against her back.Her face was pale, her body collapsed due to excessive use of mana, and she leaned against Bai Wanwan weakly.

"When the search team passes by, we will flee to the Demon Realm," she said in a low voice. "After passing tonight, the surrounding towns will be heavily locked up. We will not be able to escape their search at all."

The Demon Realm is the only place where the empire cannot intervene, and it is also the most chaotic place recognized by everyone.

Not to mention, the people in the empire probably wanted to break their heads, and they would never have thought that Metvia, who had always hated the demon clan, would eventually choose to hide in the demon realm.

Bai Wanwan listened to her words and nodded obediently.

The bright moonlight poured down on her like strands, shining on her long black hair that had been washed back to its original color, reflecting her deep black eyes.

There is also the small red mole directly under the right eye, under the full moonlight, it seems to have a touch of soul-stirring color.

Even though she has such a gentle and well-behaved appearance, she was able to do such a bold and crazy behavior just now.

For some reason, looking at Bai Wanwan's beautiful face, Metvia suddenly felt her heart skip a beat, and even the simple dependence between the two of them changed instantly.

This change seemed to herald something very good but also very bad, completely turned Metvia's heart upside down, and made her feel a burst of secret joy and fear involuntarily.

"Iris...will you regret it?"

After a while, Metvia suddenly asked.

Her dark green eyes stared at Bai Wanwan motionlessly, nervous, as if she wanted to confirm something, and said softly: "Follow me, escape from here, away from the easy days, go to the chaotic demon realm...you will regret it ?"

Being an enemy of the empire, leaving home, Iris, will you loathe me, hate me, and eventually betray me because of this?

like those people...

Do you know?

"Will not."

Perhaps sensing Metvia's uneasiness, Bai Wanwan smiled with her lips pursed, her eyes curved into a nice arc.

"The people I have experienced, the things I have suffered, there are joys and sorrows, love and hate, but they are all chosen by myself. They have nothing to do with them, and they have nothing to do with you."

Even though the road ahead is bumpy and precarious, the ending may be a regrettable betrayal and parting.

But she will never regret it.

If I could do it all over again, I would still choose to meet you.
