Erica stood under the scarlet blood moon and let the violent snowstorm cut her cheek.
She stared blankly at the monstrous red demon, as if going crazy, tearing a crack from the gloomy sky and ruthlessly ravaging the two giants as tall as two hills.
In its hands, the two giants were like two insects, being tossed back and forth by it.
Until it becomes fragmented.
The red demon held the huge body dripping with blood in his hands and roared to the sky with a victor's roar.
That gesture was like showing off to people, showing off his power and cruelty.
Several phantoms flashed through Erica's eyes.
She touched her hot forehead and felt a little dazed.
She understands the horror of demons better than anyone else.
Because she had faced that kind of existence before.
Almost unable to resist.
The moment the demon appeared, she also had doubts.
Why does the devil appear here?
Having the same idea as Gwen, Erica unconsciously linked the incident of demons appearing in the mountains behind the academy with Victor.
She clearly remembered that the demon of greed, which was as terrifying as a black mountain, appeared on Heni's body.
Hernie is Victor's teaching assistant.
Since she fell into coma, she had almost only heard about what happened next.
No one mentioned Hernie during the demon battle. On the contrary, the one they mentioned the most was the pig-headed professor of the Lesser family.
Devin Lesser, during that incident, was described as being a demonic carrier.
She once had doubts that the person possessed by the devil was obviously Heni.
But no one mentioned her name.
Behind this incident, it was as if there was a hand controlling everything, shifting the focus of the incident at will.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in Erica's mind, causing her to subconsciously look for Victor.
While everyone else was cheering for the demon that destroyed the two giants, she was the only one looking towards the farthest distance.
Those two figures.
Erica's pupils were slightly condensed.
She was very familiar with that figure and would never admit it wrong.
Professor Victor.
The person in his arms is Knight Commander Gwen.
Erica watched Gwen collapse in Victor's arms, and the two looked intimate.
"..."
What are the two of them doing?
Suddenly, a flash of light lit up in front of her eyes, and her attention seemed to be forcibly diverted, looking to the side of Victor's shoulder.
A crow's single eye flashed with blue light. He turned his head and stared at Erica closely.
As if guided by the strange blue light, Erica involuntarily fixed her gaze on the crow.
Suddenly, an extremely violent aura came towards him.
Blowing her golden hair, dancing irregularly on the snowy field.
Her eyes seemed to be invaded by a strange scene.
The snowfield illuminated by the red moon began to become unstable, and began to tremble like a fluctuating mirror lake.
In the blink of an eye, a pure white picture jumped out from before his eyes.
At this time, she was standing above the clouds, with several towering giant pillars standing up from the boundless white sky.
A golden sun hung in the very far sky, and its warm breath shone on Erica's body, as if she had escaped from the snowy field in an instant.
The huge white temple slowly emerged from the giant pillar array, and an extremely huge bird kept waving its wings in the blue sky and flew around the temple.
The huge air current lifted Erica up from the clouds, spinning and flying freely in the vast space.
It was as if freedom was in her hands for a moment.
The clear power gradually integrated into Erica's body.
Under her golden eyes, a white rune slowly appeared, which was a rune symbolizing wind.
inherited--
A flash of lightning flashed across Erica's mind, and such writing appeared subconsciously.
She saw the dark crow in a trance and felt the light body.
And the crow's joking laughter gradually began to echo in his ears.
"It's this power again."
Erica was a little confused.
She still remembers that in her dream, the existence that claimed to be the evil god gave her the power of inheritance.
But this time, it was the wind.
Erica slowly stretched out a hand, as if to test, gradually stimulating the wind element in her body.
Even the runes and formations didn't need to be carved. A powerful air flow instantly gathered from all directions and began to swirl in the palm of her hand.
The power of wind.
When she raised her head again, she tried to look at the crow.
But a hoarse cry was heard.
'Rage, it's time for you to go. '
In an instant, the picture in front of Erica's eyes collapsed crazily. A few seconds later, feeling the red glow and howling cold wind around her, she realized again that she was back in Northern Xinjiang.
"this....."
After receiving the order, Wrighton threw the giant limb in his hand into the water.
It reached up to the sky and tore open a huge red gap. With a sudden force of its legs, it jumped into the scarlet gap.
With the departure of the devil, the gloomy dark clouds gradually dispersed, and the red full moon became bright again.
The bloody snowfield was reflected in front of everyone's eyes, looking even more terrifying.
Everyone witnessed the appearance and departure of demons in this war.
Only Erica looked at the malicious one-eyed crow on Victor's shoulder.
I felt a huge tremor in my heart that lasted for a long time.
…
"It was the devil who saved us!" 》
"Knights and Demons, Who is Right!" 》
Countless slogans were engraved on the buildings of the Pale Magic Guild and spread wildly among the territories.
In the battle of annihilation of the barbarians, the warriors of the Pale Sorcerers' Order achieved absolute victory.
Annihilated most of the barbarians and drove them out of the northern border.
The Magisterium will be victorious! Only some brave magicians died heroically while trying to block the barbarians' way.
However, no one thought that this victory was actually brought by a demon.
From the moment that devil came into the world, he had completely doomed the fate of the barbarians.
The scarlet sky seems to welcome the arrival of the devil, and the bloody ocean is like the galloping home of the giant crocodile.
That brutal and extremely exciting scene became an eternal memory in the hearts of the members of the Pale Magic Order.
At this moment, the Pale Sorcerers' Society was in a state of celebration that they had not experienced for a long time.
The members all took off their robes, wore their own clothes, and sang and danced around the huge bonfire in the territory.
Everyone held their wine glasses high, with red smiles on their faces.
These warriors stationed in northern Xinjiang no longer have to worry about barbarian invasions.
After this battle, the two barbarian clans, which had lost most of their main force, were no longer something to be afraid of.
As for the other small tribes, the Pale Magic Guild has not paid much attention to them yet.
Members even gathered around Vladimir, dancing and drinking barrels of wheat wine.
Erica sat quietly and watched the cheering scene.
Although the cheerful atmosphere can infect people, she is not stationed in Northern Xinjiang all year round, so naturally she cannot experience the high joy of the soldiers and residents of Northern Xinjiang.
However, she could still feel directly how hateful the barbarians were.
Her mood was a little complicated. She held her head and tasted the bitter wheat wine in her hand.
A figure slowly sat next to Erica.
It's Amelia.
Erica knew that she was the only third-level mage in the Pale Magic Order, and the mage group was led by her.
The two sat in silence for a long time.
In the end, it was Amelia who spoke first.
"Our power is very small, and everyone lives in the territory governed by the Magical Council."
"The land for survival has been reduced layer by layer, and even information is difficult to transmit to the outside world."
Sooner or later, there will be a day when the Pale Magic Guild will fight those brutal barbarians with all their strength and risk their lives.
Otherwise, simply waiting will usher in absolute slow death.
Erica listened quietly and continued to be silent.
A lollipop was handed to Erica, with the familiar candy wrapper still on it.
Erica looked at the candy in a daze and slowly took it.
"Thank you Victor for us."
Amelia stood up and walked towards the cheerful crowd again.
Erica lowered her head and looked at the candy in her hand.
As if she had made a decision, she stood up.
…
The blizzard was blowing, and Victor stood alone on a snow cliff.
The windbreaker on his body kept making noise in the wind and snow.
The crow stood on his shoulder, letting the wind and snow blow away its feathers.
Erica appeared behind Victor, looking at the lonely back.
"……professor."
Victor did not look back, Erica continued:
"I... saw you on the wanted poster."
"But I believe you! You must have been wronged."
He turned around slightly and glanced at Erica lightly.
Erica's eyes met Victor's, and her heart skipped a beat when she saw his cold eyes.
But she did not move her gaze away and continued to stare at Victor.
But I heard the voice of the person in front of me slowly ring out:
"I didn't expect you to be here."
Erica was slightly startled, but Victor had already turned back:
"They were not wrong. I did cripple Angus and his heirs with my own hands."
Listening to Victor stating the facts, Erica was suddenly extremely excited.
"Then they deserve it!"
After staying here for a few days, she also knew how infuriating the actions of those northern knights were.
But, from a certain perspective.
But no one could find fault with Angus.
He did fulfill his mission of guarding the northern border and preventing the barbarians from invading the northern border of the empire.
As for those closer to the north?
Who allowed you to live in such a dangerous place?
Erica could even recall the ugly and disdainful faces of those nobles when the lives of those in the far north were threatened and they asked the royal capital for help.
If you have the ability to leave the North, who would want to stay in this land of scarcity?
They can only stand and talk without back pain.
Erica always believed that Victor did nothing wrong, even if he was wanted by the knights across the North.
"Is it."
She couldn't see Victor's face clearly, but she could hear the faint smile in Victor's tone.
"But even so, they still stay safely in the north and live a carefree life."
"With all the barbarians wiped out, who will get this credit?"
Erica was stunned.
The existence of the Pale Magic Guild was not decided by the royal family.
The real group that nominally guards Northern Xinjiang is still the group of Northern Xinjiang knights who do nothing.
Under Angus's influence, the nobles of the royal capital naturally gave priority to trusting the Northern Knights.
This is also something that can't be helped.
Even though Angus's indifference to the people was exposed, he did not neglect his duties above the law and responsibilities.
Even if the emperor looked down upon him, it was impossible to arrest Angus for this reason.
What's more, Angus was once the emperor's subordinate.
The nostalgic old emperor would not take down Angus' position for such a reason.
So, where can we find a strong reason to convict Angus?
Suddenly, Erica thought of something and froze on the spot.
"……demon?"
The demon took all the anger of the people in the north and incarnated on the ice field, wiping out all the barbarians.
So where does the anger of these northerners come from?
It's not just the barbarians.
And those northern knights who did nothing.
But, do the nobles really believe that the devil appeared because of Angus?
At this moment, Erica suddenly thought of the conversation between the evil god and the devil.
"Professor, so that demon is actually because of you..."
"Keep it a secret for me."
Victor's voice was indifferently hidden in the heavy snow.
Suddenly, a howling hurricane blew suddenly on the snow cliff, making Erica unable to open her eyes.
She tried to control the wind element in her body to make the wind and snow stop, but to no avail.
"what happened....."
Suddenly, a white rune slowly lit up on the collar of Victor's windbreaker.
In Erica's eyes, a white cloud slowly formed around Victor.
Among the clouds and smoke, the silhouette of a creature seemed to be formed.
It was a giant white bird.
It soars above the sky, soaring in the sky of fluttering goose feathers, like the king of the sky.
At some point, Victor was already standing on the giant bird.
Erica's eyes widened as she watched the giant bird stir up a violent whirlwind.
The wind started to rise in the blink of an eye.
It penetrated the pale clouds, and the violent air current carried rich air waves.
Disappeared from Erica's sight.
She stood alone on the snow cliff, watching Victor leave.
Lost consciousness for a long time.
