In order to hold back the raven demon, Arthur deliberately asked: "May I ask, messenger of hell, what price do I need to pay?"
"To thank you for freeing me from my bondage, this time is free."
Arthur was a little confused, but he continued to talk nonsense: "Please tell Beelzebub for me, if I see it again next time, I will kick its ass!"
"What?"
The slender demon raven suddenly lowered his head and met Arthur's eyes, "Are you crazy? You still want my life. In the endless years, I am only outside the Palace of Gluttony. , I have seen the figure of the Lord before. I am just a messenger, delivering letters for the lower-level demons in hell, or an intermediate-level demon with a less bad temper, so you should change it!"
Arthur didn't expect Beelzebub to have such a great reputation in hell. The raven didn't even dare to say his name.
"Okay! Just send me a message to Baphomet. If I see it again, I will break its horns!"
"What? Are you crazy? You still want my life. I have only seen the Marquis outside the esoteric church. You should change your mind! I am just a little messenger."
Arthur pretended to be very angry at this moment and said: "Huh! You can't do this or that. What kind of messenger are you?"
Raven spread his hands and shrugged, "I only send a message to those friends who miss their families."
"My family won't be there."
The raven blinked, as if he didn't understand what Arthur meant.
"Messenger, what is your name?"
Arthur thought that the other party would not be stupid enough to tell him his real name so easily.
Unexpectedly, the raven demon was surprisingly honest, "My name is Corvis, and when I turn into a mailbox, my name is Skira."
mailbox?
Arthur immediately realized that the mailbox should be the scarecrow during the day. At this time, he also thought that he might have burned the scarecrow to death with his blood during the day, and at the same time let it get rid of control.
Suddenly he remembered that Sher was burning the magic circle, but if he tried to stop it at this time, it would be too late. However, he now knew the raven's true name, and Arthur was no longer afraid of it.
Sure enough, white fire began to burn not far away, and Raven Corvis gradually disappeared into the air.
Sher ran over at this time, "How was it? Did you destroy the demon?"
Arthur couldn't help but feel a little distressed. If he didn't burn down the magic circle, he could still operate it. In this situation, he could only see the raven while soul roaming.
But Arthur suddenly had a flash of inspiration and shouted to the place where the raven disappeared just now: "Corvis, obey my call!"
As he shouted, the raven Corvis appeared from where he was just now, but this time it was not a huge human bird, but an ordinary raven.
"Dear friend, have you thought of any letters that you would like me to deliver?"
Although the raven demon's form has changed, its voice remains the same.
However, it startled Sher beside him, he picked up the pistol and pointed it at the raven.
"What exactly is going on?"
While Arthur stopped him from shooting, he explained: "It's just a messenger and does no harm."
Xie Er didn't think so. The bloody head during the day was still in the wheat field!
Arthur also thought of this and couldn't help but ask the raven: "As far as I know, demons cannot appear in reality, but why can you?"
"This is a contract signed between me and your human Gaius Julius Caesar. In order to deliver a message to my dead lover Cornelia, the news that he is about to get married, I made a contract with our ravens. As long as If there are still people in the world who know his name, then the raven can walk in the world. And he will turn into a scarecrow during the day and collect letters from humans. A gold coin must be put in the letter as a fee."
Arthur opened his mouth in surprise, "This is really a secret that I have never heard before!"
At this time, Sher frowned and poked Arthur with some embarrassment.
"Who is this Gaius Julius Caesar he is talking about?"
Arthur glanced at Sher helplessly, "Caesar!"
This was a name that was widely circulated even in the 18th century.
At this time, Arthur asked the raven again: "Then can you tell me who used black magic to control you?"
The raven shook his head vividly, "I'm just a little messenger."
Arthur already knew what it was going to say, so he waved his hand and interrupted: "Okay! Goodbye, Mr. Messenger. I hope you won't be taken advantage of again."
The raven called "croak, croak" twice before disappearing into the dark night.
Although he still hasn't found the manipulator behind the scenes, this matter has come to an end, so he can finally breathe a long sigh of relief.
In the manor, Arthur lay on the bed and opened the "Hell Bible". As expected, there was another demon raven in it.
The name read, Skylar Kovis.
The level is that of lower-level demons, which are almost indistinguishable from those evil spirits.
But this time Arthur also saw that it was not the lower level that meant less danger, especially for ordinary people, no matter which one they were, they were very deadly.
Arthur also became increasingly wary of the people behind the scenes.
The raven was okay, but the Mirror Demon and the Painting Demon were definitely not lower than Baphomet. Such big demons could control each other, so he must be a person who is very proficient in black magic.
With his soul wandering, Arthur came to the church again. Father Klaus held a candle and observed every character on the wall.
In order not to trigger the mysterious instrument on his body, Arthur could only stand and watch from a distance.
At this time, Klaus's chest flashed with light again, and Arthur couldn't help but look at the location and felt that it shouldn't be him.
Sure enough, the light from the instrument that Father Claus took out shot to another place, which was the mirror covered by Arthur with a white cloth.
Because of his reminder in the morning, Father Claus couldn't help but feel a little hesitant now. Arthur was also wondering. According to his speculation, if the mirror was covered, the two demons would not be able to come out again.
At this moment, the entire piece of white cloth suddenly rushed into the air, as if there was a person standing inside. Arthur could not see clearly what was inside because of the obstruction of the white cloth.
Father Claus was so frightened that he fell to the ground. Holding the instrument, he kept shouting at Bai Bu: "Devil, I order you to leave, leave quickly."
The thing in the white cloth didn't seem to be afraid of Father Claus or the instrument in his hand at all, but now that Arthur was standing next to it, it looked at Klaus for a while, and then looked at Arthur again. It’s as if he doesn’t know where to start.
Arthur also had his heart in his throat at this moment. What he was most afraid of was the oil painting devil wrapped in the white cloth.
If that were the case, he might really have to abandon Father Claus and run away first.
