Bride of the Great Demon King

"Since when has our faith become a stain that cannot be seen. Since when has our strength had to be hidden under a disguise. The glory of Mensa will begin from the moment I step into the 'gate'! Red The man with long hair gathered his cloak and walked into the ancient stone gate under the worship of the tribe."

……

A glowing red ring stood quietly on the ground, and it looked a bit like a strange long oval mirror.

Bailiel tilted his head and looked around, and found that he couldn't see the scenery behind the ring through the ring, and he couldn't see his own reflection on it. He could only see many lights distorted in the plane.

"this is?"

"The portal." Mensa raised his eyebrows, "You don't think we're going to walk, do you? This is a portal that can only be activated by Mensa's blood. Pass through and you'll be there. Don't worry! Mensa The portal of the family is very stable, and it is by no means comparable to the inferior non-directional portal."

In fact, Bailiel has never even seen that kind of "inferior non-directional portal", but considering that Sean standing aside did not raise any objections, there should be no danger, so he nodded and walked towards the circle go.There was a vague sense of loss in my little heart, why didn't the big devil come to see me off?

"Hey? Wait! Let me go there first, lest you be instantly killed by some passing monster as soon as you leave the portal." The red-haired demon grabbed Bairiel's arm and hurriedly took a step forward. The figure disappeared in a flash.

Bairiel pursed his lips and glanced in the direction of the castle for the last time, then turned and walked towards the portal.

"Master Bailie, please be careful on the road."

"Well, I will." The boy replied casually, and his figure disappeared from sight along with the portal.

Sean took out a pocket watch-like thing from his pocket, and flipped it twice with his fingers.After the dashboard was completely still, he nodded and put it back as if confirming something.

"What a busy day..." The four-armed servant sighed softly and walked quickly towards the castle.

The scene in front of him suddenly changed, and Bailie was startled by a strange face that suddenly appeared in front of him.

"This is a dog-eared ape, the most suitable summoned beast to serve as a warning." Mensa pointed to the ape that was about as tall as Bairiel.

The coat color is various shades of gray-green.On the face of the ape, there is a scar across the left eye, and the bridge of the nose seems to be collapsed, which looks ugly and funny.The ape's ears resembled those of a dog's, which Buriel guessed was how it got its name.

The place where they appeared was a circular platform, although all kinds of vines grew all around, and even the weeds did not dare to grow on the platform as if they were afraid of something.A red monster with two pairs of wings on the back, like a lion's hind body, an elk, and a woman's face, is engraved in the center of the platform.Thirteen lifelike monsters with different images surrounded her.

Take out a small table and put it on the ground, put a cushion on each side, spread a map on the table, and then put two kettles on both sides of the table, the red-haired demon takes things out of the baggage like flowing water Bailiel stared blankly.

"How many things are in your luggage?" Bairiel couldn't help being curious.

"I like to carry all my belongings with me. Although it is a bit troublesome to carry, but in the past... someone helped me carry it."

Bairiel keenly noticed the frustration on Mensa's face.

Fortunately, the red-haired demon immediately cheered up again. "Look at the map. We are at this location now. We are going here. There are seventeen troublesome monsters on the road, and we have to go around. You must follow me closely, don't make any noise, and don't talk to me say."

"Why don't we just teleport here?" Bairiel pointed to another place on the map that marked the same circular portal as their current location.

"Because the portal there has been destroyed. It's permanent." Mensa suddenly saw those clansmen who had fled to the portal but were nailed to the ground with a sword.

"Do you still have questions?"

Bairiel shook his head.

"Then let's go!" Mensa patted the dog-eared ape's head, and the nimble ape immediately rushed forward to explore the way.

Perhaps it was because the concept of the territory of hell creatures was too strong, and the two who happened to find out the spheres of influence of various monsters and passed through the gap did not encounter much trouble on the road.The only two alarms were also easily resolved by Mensa with summoned beasts.The extremely fast-paced battle made Bailie dizzy watching, and felt a little excited. So, is this the feeling of fighting monsters?

"Fortunately, there are no monsters with a keen sense of smell nearby, otherwise it would be too troublesome not to see blood every time." Mensa used a dagger to deal with a small monster that suddenly attacked, and threw the body to his ape.

Bairiel was a little puzzled, why didn't Mensa use his usual long knife since arriving here?

"That's it." The red-haired demon pointed to the entrance of the cave that suddenly protruded from the ground not far away.

That's it.He repeated to himself in his mind.Where the Mensa family is buried...

The high-intensity trek made Bailier a little out of breath.Holding the staff in one hand, he put his knees on the other hand and tried to calm his breath.Although his physical strength is much better than when he first arrived in Hell, it is still far from Mensa who has been active in the wild all year round.However, the boy never once asked for a rest on the road, which even surprised Mensa.

If it is a goal that can be achieved by working hard, then we must do our best.Bailiel did not forget the promise he made to the castle of the Great Demon King.

When they reached the entrance of the cave, a strong smell of blood and rancidity made the two of them stop at the same time.Mensa put away the ear ape, tried hard to restrain the sudden urge to escape, and walked into the place where he lived in his childhood pretending not to care.

The corpses all over the ground were not much different from when he left.Among these corpses were those of demons and summoned beasts. The severed limbs and internal organs were mixed together, showing how tragic the battle had taken place here.Perhaps it was because of the special climatic conditions in the wilderness, or maybe it was because of the residual magic power in the corpse, the corpse was not badly decomposed, and Mensa could even easily distinguish the faces of many tribesmen.Time went back in an instant, the body trembled involuntarily, and the miserable howls of the clansman echoed in his ears.

"Aren't you afraid?" Mensa clenched his fists tightly, trying to distract the young man beside him.

"They're all dead." Bairiel blinked and said flatly.

"Ok?"

"I'm still alive." Bairiel suddenly laughed, "Why should the living be afraid of the dead?"

"Hehe...you're right, there's really no need to be afraid." Mensa casually pulled out a black rapier from the body, "the invaders didn't leave a single body behind, but they may not have suffered fewer casualties than my clansmen. .It's just that they won in the end. You see, they didn't even have time to take their weapons, and they fled our place in a hurry."

Bairiel stared at the rapier in Mensa's hand, and suddenly felt that the sword looked familiar.Where have you seen something similar?

"Why did they come?"

"A question of belief." Mensa smiled wryly, "a small question of belief. According to that fool who lives in the royal court, all demons who do not believe in him should be executed. The Mensa family chose to hide in the wilderness, but in the end Still haven't escaped his despicable minions..."

"Do you all live in underground caves?" Bairiel suddenly felt a little pitiful for Mensa, who looked like he was about to cry but forcibly held back.He is different from himself, he should have had many close people, right?But for me, as long as I can protect the most important one, that's enough.

"Well... There are many spacious and comfortable caves connected to both sides of the main passage. Each cave is the residence of a family. Fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, and their summoned beasts share the space. The summoned beasts provide us Bringing back prey, guarding our homeland for us, while we confuse them, satisfy their needs, and control their power. The subordination and interdependence between the summoner and the summoned beast form our special family structure. The largest cave of all It is the kitchen of the whole family, you can never imagine how many different kinds of food we have to cook to meet the weird dietary requirements of the summoned beasts..."

Mensa stopped suddenly.

The straight passage has come to an end, and at the end of the passage is a cave that is not too spacious, and a corpse lies in the center of the cave.

A half body...

"We're here." Mensa's lips trembled, his face pale.

Bairiel lowered his head and saw a face exactly like Bastian's. This...should be Mensa's father?

"Don't you need a burial?"

The boy's words successfully brought Mensa back from his misty thoughts.The red-haired demon smiled stiffly: "I didn't have the courage at the time. Maybe after I successfully get the summoned beasts behind the 'door', I will bury them all with my own hands."

Mensa continued to move forward, touching an inconspicuous stone door in the deepest part of the cave with his fingers: "This is the 'door' that the Mensa family swore to protect."

The stone gate is also engraved with that kind of red monster with wings like a lion and a deer and a woman's face on the back.Some shallow traces are all over the stone gate. Judging from the broken sword on the ground, it should be that the intruders tried to destroy the stone gate, but because the hardness of the stone gate was far beyond their imagination, they had to give up in the end.

"Behind this door is connected to the summoned beast space. As I said, "Summoner's Code" No. 15, the sealed summoned beasts exist in another space, and the gem is just the key to connect the two spaces , and any research that tries to understand another dimension will bring disaster. The Mensa family has always only guarded the 'door', but never thought of opening it. Until one day, my father found a research note. It states The correct way to open the 'gate', and the world behind the 'gate' hides a large number of high-level summoned beasts, those who can enter can ignore their original contract and sign a new summoning contract with them..."

"He couldn't resist this temptation. I don't think any summoner can, right? So he opened the 'door' and successfully brought back Bastian, becoming the strongest of the Mensa family. The whole family People are crazy for him, thinking that this is a sign of the upcoming rise of the Mensa clan. Looking back now, could it be that the seeds of destruction have been planted since that moment?" the red-haired demon murmured.

"Then why did you open it?" the blond boy asked with a frown.

"Because I want to become stronger. I want to become a veritable high-ranking demon." Maybe there is another reason, wanting to take a look at the place where that guy once lived for a long time?

"What about you? Do you want to come in with me?"

"Of course." Bairiel opened a magic barrier beside him, "I also have the same reason as you."

The red-haired demon nodded, walked to the front of the stone gate and closed his eyes.

"Son of darkness sleeping at the end of the world, I offer you the blood of Mensa, please use lies to open the way for me, and fully reveal the world of beasts in front of me."

"Beast Gate, open—"
