Bride of the Great Demon King

"The fear of death is so intuitive and so strong that sometimes, even if it's just to live a second longer, humans will do amazing things."

……

"You...you are..." The prince felt that his heartbeat was about to stop.How could such a kind and innocent blond boy, who is like an angel, come from the depths of hell, trying to spread terror and darkness...

"Devil, the high-ranking demon Bairiel, this is my name." The blond boy smiled gracefully, "Thanks to His Highness George for taking care of me during this time, now it's time for His Highness to send me away in person. Oh, yes Yes! Please don't forget, you only have one hour."

"This is impossible!!!" The prince's eyes were full of pain.He had never wanted to turn back time so badly!

"Please think about the benefits. After sending me away, you can get my staff as a reward." The boy kept smiling.

Bailie's words made the prince's eyes widen immediately: "You, didn't you say that it is something that is second only to life?"

"That's right. So, in order to save my life to meet him, I had no choice but to give it to you." The young man sighed, "After all, if you only use your life as a threat, I probably won't be able to get it back. Wasn’t it the staff that you exchanged for when you left? With your personality, you would probably choose to die, right? But if it’s the opposite, it makes you feel that you didn’t ‘steal’ the staff from me, but passed a pile of If you get it in fair trade, the possibility of you helping me escape will be greatly increased." When the boy spoke, there was no pain on his face, but calmness and determination.

"But, there are paladins outside the mansion." The prince finally believed that the boy in front of him was a demon.

"That's your problem." The boy put the blade of lies back on his waist.

"Okay! I can help you!" The prince gritted his teeth and nodded, determined to temporarily betray his beliefs, "But I don't need magic to break the curse. I betrayed your trust, so I must take responsibility for it, but I must also End this plague alive. So, give me three days, after three days, I am willing to give this life back to you!"

"It's a pity that the devil doesn't accept morality as a bargaining chip." Bailiel flatly rejected the prince's request. The so-called inner torment caused by conscience was not within his calculations, and the so-called curse was just a teenager. Words of intimidation. "Take me away within an hour, and you will get the anti-curse magic and my staff." The boy said firmly.

Just as the clock struck nine o'clock, His Royal Highness, who accidentally drank a few too many drinks in the general's mansion, got into his carriage with the help of a petite maid. One minute later, the carriage engraved with the royal emblem galloped away in the dark night, and the loud sound of horseshoes echoed continuously in the empty streets.

"Where are you going? I don't think it's your intention to become a devil, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't have kept your identity hidden from me. Anyway, I believe you still have a pure and flawless heart. Could it be that ...This has something to do with your eyes? Are those demons bewitching you with sweet words?" Even though he was held hostage, His Royal Highness still showed great concern for the boy.He'd even made up a whole story about how aristocratic teenagers got duped to make things easier for him.

"Put me out of the car outside the nearest quarantine area." Briel didn't bother to pay attention to the prince's whims.The devil's sweet words brought back some important memories in him, which made him feel particularly bad now.And unlike the optimistic prince, he knew that even though he left the general's mansion, his current situation was still worrying.

"Are you crazy?!" If it wasn't in the carriage, the prince almost wanted to jump up.How could the boy survive in that place full of plague patients!

"The maid in the general's mansion helped you into the carriage, but you didn't get off by yourself. Although you can hide this from the paladins for a while, they will react soon. It is impossible for your carriage to take me out of the city before them, and you I don’t have enough power to protect me in front of the Church of Light, and I can’t escape the paladin’s hunt if I get off the car anywhere in the city, only the quarantine area can temporarily stop their footsteps.”

The young man's analysis made His Royal Highness, who thought his scheme was flawless, not know what to say for a while.

"But, but...there is a quarantine area..." The prince could only choose to continue to dissuade him weakly.If it wasn't for knowing that it is not allowed to bring a demon back to the palace, he really had such an idea for a moment.

"Do you think the devil would care about a mere plague?"

Despite bragging about Haikou in front of the prince, the young man who entered the quarantine area was groping his way forward, but he doubted whether he could escape the deadly disease.After all, his current body is just an ordinary person.

There was a smell of death in the air, and apart from the occasional creepy screams, there was no smell of living people in this place.Or, the ones who are still alive have to hide themselves for some special reason?The blond boy suddenly became alert.

It's terrible.

Carefully find an empty hut.The teenager groped into the kitchen, sat down against the wall in the narrow space behind the cupboard, and began to think about what to do next.

Only the blade of lies is left on him.

The so-called curse is only used to scare people. In fact, Bailiel just discovered the use of the blade of lies other than stabbing himself.

Just like what the owner of the beast circle once did to him, the person holding this dagger only needs to ask anyone a question, and once the other party tells a lie, he can be stabbed by this dagger.Unlike ordinary demons, Bairiel subconsciously answered the truth when asked his name by the owner of the beast pen, so the dagger that pierced his heart did not cause any harm to him.

This dagger is actually a tool to test lies with blood!

After thinking of this guess, Bailier conducted a small experiment on the old general.Sure enough, even a "lie" told out of politeness will be judged as a lie by Dagger, so that he can get in touch with the liar.

But there is still a small problem. For some reason, the first prince he wants to assassinate can see the dagger of this artifact.

It must have something to do with the lie!

After thinking for a long time, the boy finally had an idea.He fiddled with his dagger on the table after seducing the prince with his first lie.But this time, His Royal Highness could not see it at all!

The teenager couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.Sure enough, anyone who has told a lie cannot see the blade of lies!Unexpectedly, as the first prince of a human kingdom, this Prince George has never told a lie in his whole life!The young man was a little hard to imagine, what kind of smooth environment the prince grew up in, so he didn't have to say any false words.

But that was exactly what he had planned.

The intimidation went well, and the first prince sent the boy out of the general's mansion.It's a pity that in the current situation, even if no one can see the blade of lies, the feasibility of inducing the other party to lie before each use is really too low.

Bailie couldn't help but sighed.

There are patrolling soldiers outside the high walls of the isolation area, and every entrance is heavily guarded. This place is almost equivalent to a dead place where only entry and no exit are allowed.Can I really persist here until I am found by the Great Demon King?Have those Plague Cultists really delivered their news to the Great Demon King?And, what about the food?I remember that the prince once said that the food supply in the quarantine area has basically been cut off. How do the people in it survive?

Shouldn't it be...

The boy suddenly remembered the screams outside that stopped abruptly.

No!

You can't sit here and wait for death, you must leave, go to the camp of the plague cultists!

But the three-day period has passed, and the Epidemic Cultists may have withdrawn from the city. Even if they can leave the quarantine area, where do I go to find them?But if they are really related to the Great Demon King, they shouldn't abandon themselves easily, right?

The young man who was lost in thought did not realize that there were three pairs of blood-red eyes standing silently in front of the window above his head, looking down at him with extremely greedy eyes...

At the same time, a secret valley outside the city——

"Filin, are those stalkers gone?" The handsome Plague Cultist sprinkled the last handful of powder on the corner of the magic circle, then raised his head to look at the man who was running towards him.

Despite the crippled right foot, the ugly Plague Cultist was not slow.Walking on the rugged trail in the mountains, the brown figure is like a group of ghosts.

"Well. When our carriage left Notley City for more than ten kilometers, the pursuers retreated." The man who wrapped his whole body in a cloak and only showed the lower half of his face grinned, showing his teeth, " I left a little present on them."

"Oh?" Trio raised his eyebrows, "They let us lose five people, two for five, seems to be a bit cheap for them?"

"My gift is contagious." No matter the time, the voice of the ugly leader of the Cultists always had an eerie tone.

"Haha, of course! It really deserves to be called the plague demon!" Trio couldn't help laughing, "Where is the thing I want? Have you brought it?"

Throwing a green gemstone to his companion casually, Ferlin looked down at the complicated magic circle on the ground: "This is the magic circle calling for my lord to come?"

The engraving method of the magic circle does not look much different from the magic circle used by ordinary plague believers to pray.This man knows too many things, even surpassing what is recorded in all the scriptures in the scriptures.This made Filin feel suspicious.At the very least, he had never heard of this kind of summoning magic, and instead of using the skull or angel symbols used by the Epidemic Cultists in the center of the magic circle, a snake-shaped mark was used instead, which made him feel very puzzled.

"If you only use this..." Trio pointed to the precious green gemstone in his hand, "It is estimated that only one shadow can be summoned. The power of my lord is too strong, and the passage cannot be opened without paying a sufficient price. "

Feilin let out a cold snort with some dissatisfaction: "How long will it take you to finish it?"

"It will take another whole day. My Lord will come at midnight tomorrow." Trio seemed quite confident about this.

"That's good. We haven't reached any deals in Notley this time. If our lord can't find the person he's looking for, I'm afraid he will be severely punished." The ugly plague cultist said The tone of voice seemed to become more bleak during the punishment.

"Filin, are you worried about me?"

"I'm just worried about myself!"
