There are a few days every month when my belly gets bigger

Sui Guangle:! ! !

What the hell is going on, one second I was still scratching my chin, and the next second my head is gone?What a joke!

It has been a long time since Briel gave him the ring, and Sui Guangle has almost forgotten the fact that he is just a skeleton, thinking that he is a normal person.By the way, his ring!

Sui Guangle thought of it all of a sudden, and quickly touched his fingers.Sure enough, at this time, only the bare knuckles were touched, and the ring he was originally wearing had disappeared.

Responding quickly in my mind, relying on intuition, Sui Guangle suddenly turned to Briel.The originally silent mage spoke at this time, looking cold and heartless in the endless darkness.

"Since you don't need this ring, I'll take it back, Lele."

Sui Guangle immediately retorted: "Why don't I need it anymore! Briel, you said this ring was a disguise for me!"

"You know it's a disguise," Briel said slowly.At this time, he had finished drawing the magic circle and could call it a day. He had already stood up and walked in front of Sui Guangle.His steps were light and silent, so that he had already walked in front of the young man, and the other party hadn't noticed yet.

Briel stretched out his left hand and accurately captured the skeleton's right hand.The five pale finger bones shone strangely under the holy light, but the middle and longest one was missing.He slowly raised his right hand, exposing the white phalanges between his fingers, but he didn't intend to put it on.

"...I disguised it for you to make you look like an ordinary person, so as not to cause panic. Since you have already broken your finger, why bother to pretend to be a human for others to see?"

Sui Guangle moved his fingers, but his phalanx was firmly held by one hand, and he couldn't move the slightest bit.

He was angry—this thought echoed in his mind, and Sui Guangle could be sure of the emotion of the mage standing in front of him.

"That's different. Anyway, you are the only one in front of me, aren't you? You won't be scared by me."

"...So, can you do this without any scruples?" Briel said heavily, pinching his fingers tightly.The huge force made people feel a sharp pain, as if the other party wanted to pinch his hand off.

Then, there was a "click" sound in the air.

Sui Guangle suddenly felt a sharp pain.At this moment, Briel lowered his head.He stared at his palm in disbelief, where there were five pale fingers.

——The remaining four fingers of the skeleton frame were all crushed off.

silence.

The silence in front of the magic circle was almost dead silent, only two human figures confronting each other.The tall young man pinched the white phalanx in his hand, while the extremely thin skeleton in front of him didn't move at all.He seemed stunned by this turn of events, and still maintained the posture of the young man with his palm resting on his shoulders.

After an unknown amount of time, someone finally broke the calm.The skeleton laughed hoarsely: "Hehe, Briel, are you studying how to make me look scarier?"

Blair: ...

He looked at the phalanx in his hand, feeling an indescribable sense of frustration.Originally, he wanted to let the young man remember that he was not allowed to torture his body like this in the future, but he never thought that his body was so fragile. With just a little effort, his remaining finger bones were all broken.

But looking at the skeleton's reaction now, he clearly didn't take everything that happened just now to heart.

Blair sighed helplessly, wishing that he started to use the most domineering contract, which could directly control the boy's actions.In this way, once he wants to do something that is not conducive to himself, he can be directly stopped by his mind.However, when the boy was first summoned, the situation was so complicated, and he had no choice but to use a method different from that recorded in the classics.

Suddenly an idea came to his mind, so he took the skeleton's metacarpal bone, walked to the side of the magic circle and sat down, then pushed the phantom ring onto the other hand of the skeleton.When he raised his head again, he only saw his own shadow in the blue eyes of the silver-haired boy.

"Hey, don't look at me like that, it's so weird!" Sui Guangle muttered, trying to move her head away.Briel looked at him so straightly, in his line of sight, it was Arlan's face that was magnified to the extreme.It was extremely awkward to stare at his own face at such a close distance.

Briel smiled lightly, but didn't stop the boy from turning his head, and bowed his head straight.He looked at the five phalanges in his hand, put the thumb bone on the fracture, and suddenly poked it in.

Sensen's white bones pierced into the warm flesh and blood, which should have caused pain.But Sui Guangle felt nothing.With the same sight, he could only watch Briel's movements, so he watched blankly as he picked up the crystal pen and drew on the palms and phalanxes.

One is the slightly hot skin, the other is the cold white bones, but the movements drawn by Briel did not hesitate at all because of this.As the action progressed, Sui Guangle realized that this was an alchemy circle, but he tried his best to search in his mind, but he didn't know what Briel meant.

He could only follow Briel's line of sight, watching his actions.Breuer draws slowly and carefully, with an undeniable focus.Sui Guangle originally wanted him to hurry up, it felt awkward being held like this, but feeling Briel's persistence, she didn't say a word.

Sui Guangle was already sweating profusely by the time Briel finished drawing the circles on the five phalanxes and connecting his phalanxes.He tried to move his fingers, and they were very flexible, no different from before breaking them off, even more dexterous.

So why did Breuer draw the magic circle?This question came to his mind, and Briel answered slowly as if he had understood his thoughts: "In this way, your five fingers will never leave your body again."

Sui Guangle: ...

This is definitely revenge for his behavior just now!Didn't Briel know how much pressure he was under when he was holding his hand to draw the magic circle? !I was so nervous that I was afraid that he would suddenly attack me!

"Okay! I promise you, won't you break your fingers in the future?" Sui Guangle whispered, "...I don't want to, but I can't see it, I can't draw a magic circle, I can only use this method, It will be fine next time."

"You still want next time?!" Briel raised his eyebrows.

"No more!" Sui Guangle immediately promised.Even if you can't see it, you can still feel the murderous aura on Briel, okay?He simply didn't give up pretending to be the big devil if he didn't get the answer he wanted for a moment!

In order to divert Briel's attention, Sui Guangle immediately proposed to summon the Holy Light.He stood beside the magic circle, snapped his fingers, and a cluster of intense rays of light immediately lit up at his fingertips, and then floated into the circle, merging with the originally weak holy light.

That cluster of light...may not last long.

Pray because of faith, and the power generated in it will be funneled into the Light, helping it last longer.However, according to the current trend on the mainland, the power of prayer does not seem to be able to meet the consumed quota.

Unless this cluster of holy light can last longer.

Sui Guangle thought for a while, subconsciously pressed the ring on his left hand, and at the moment his thoughts turned, his hand suddenly sank.

He raised his arm, raised it flat to his eyes, and clearly saw the whole picture of the object - the pope's scepter.

"... No wonder the lost scepter has not been found on the mainland for so many years. It turns out that he is in your hands." Blair sighed.

"Didn't you guess?"

"Many people speculate that the Pope's scepter is still in the hands of Pope Rose, but after all, no one can find it. If it is not for the summoning circle, I am afraid that you will continue to lose it even with the scepter."

Sui Guangle smiled, and lightly waved the scepter in his hand, the milky white gem at the top was lit up immediately, and soft light came out from it, and then the young man touched the nodes of the magic circle.The soft white light traveled along the nodes of the magic circle one by one, and every time it passed through, the lines of the magic circle began to shine.Blair watched this scene quietly. The magic circle he had drawn by himself began to be lit up one by one under the scepter waved by the young man.

The young man knew this magic circle well, and he waved it without any hesitation. The moment the last node was lit, the whole magic circle suddenly burst into dazzling white light, spinning, and all rushed to the center of the magic circle.

White holy light shot up into the sky, and it seemed that the entire church was illuminated for a moment.The light in the center went through layers of barriers and rushed straight to the dome, then sprinkled down along the colorful glass, and after refraction, it showed bright colors, and finally all gathered in one place——

Everyone looked at the church in shock, and the light that appeared at that moment seemed to illuminate the entire night sky.People thought it was just an illusion, but after rubbing their eyes, they found that the church in the center of the town was still lit.The power of the holy light emerges from the center, warm and reliable, it seems to dispel all the darkness.

The priest remembered the two outsiders who helped them resist the dark natural disaster. Their badges showed that they came from the thorn family of Emerald.It was precisely because of this identity that he agreed with the two of them to enter the most core place to investigate the divine light circle, but he did not expect this scene—even the former cardinal did not do it.

Is the God of Light, who has been away for a long time, finally willing to take care of his people?

People started to drop what they were doing and started praying spontaneously.They once thought that they had been abandoned by the gods, but the holy light that dispelled the darkness at this moment gave them great comfort.The priest murmured, and ran towards the center of the church suddenly, his usual elegant demeanor had disappeared, at this moment he just wanted to witness all this with his own eyes.However, when he finally ran into that place out of breath, he only saw the magic circle running quietly.

Those two people left, just as elusive as when they came, leaving only the shimmering holy light behind.
