The Shepherd's Covenant

During a ritual to summon demons, Aihuas finally recalled memories of his previous life.

This was supposed to be an online game developed and operated by his own company for six years. Now, h...

Chapter 436: No Different (Third update, please give me a monthly ticket!)

Aiwass quickly found the Grand Guardian in the Candlelight Cathedral and whispered the matter to him.

It's not as simple as "Yulia" being abducted by Emma, ​​but a more complete version. That is, "Their Queen Isabelle was abducted by Countess Emma."

"...Is there such a thing?"

The Great Guardian frowned immediately: "To think that's the case..."

George immediately took Aiwass and hurried to the open space - it was quite difficult to find an open air space in the crowded Candlelight Cathedral.

He frowned as he looked for an open space.

He felt the pressure was immense. “I’m sorry, Aiwass. I was at the Candlelight Ceremony, but I was in the front row… It’s my responsibility.”

The Great Guardian didn't even notice "Yulia" at the back. And there was no way he could have noticed.

Because Isabel didn't enter the cathedral at all, but watched the ceremony outside.

While the Candle Festival didn't require high status to enter, and admission was on a first-come, first-served basis, it was incredibly crowded. And since "Yulia" was short, she couldn't see much if she couldn't get a seat. There wasn't much difference between being inside and outside.

They finally found a suitable open space.

As the Great Guardian blew the whistle on his chest, the silent whistle traveled far in the air.

After a brief delay, the hurricane carrying the griffin arrived in front of him in the blink of an eye, and George grabbed Aiwass and jumped up in an instant.

"Philip, Lloyd's Headquarters."

The Great Guardian shouted, "Hurry up!"

"OK."

A deep, steady and reliable voice echoed through the storm, and Aiwass and the Great Guardian disappeared in an instant.

The sudden two storms blew the people around them staggering - they were first pushed back and then pulled forward.

When the storm died down, most of them didn't even notice that the griffin had landed here, and two people disappeared out of thin air in the crowd.

Aiwass was a little anxious. He had no intention of taking the elevator, and neither did the Great Guardian.

Instead, he directly let the Great Guardian's griffin Philip fly outside the top floor.

He glanced through the window and saw that Emma's office was empty.

——The good news is that it can be confirmed that it was Emma who did it.

Because Aiwass had warned her not to leave Lloyd's Building. But now she was not there at all.

The bad news is that they have no idea where Emma took "Yulia".

"Well, Aiwass. I'll stay here and use the Eye of Avalon to search for them, while also keeping watch over them."

The Great Guardian made a quick decision. "Take Philip and search somewhere else—first, go to a port or something like that. Philip can hear my call and fly back no matter how far away he is. There's no need to worry about losing contact. If you find it there, come find me."

"No problem, leave it to me."

Philip said in a deep voice.

The next moment, the Great Guardian leaped from the griffin, and Philip, along with Aiwass, disappeared in a sudden storm.

From high in the air, George extended his right hand forward.

He didn't even draw his sword.

The raging storm, as he wished, shattered all the windows on the top floors of Lloyd's at the same time.

He took a few light steps as if walking on air and landed in the room. George stepped on the broken glass, and his hard black military boots made a sharp and piercing sound.

The Grand Guardian didn't even sit down.

He just stood in front of the window, reached out and pressed the Eye of Avalon on his chest, and immersed his mind in it.

His field of vision suddenly switched, turning into a perspective overlooking the entire Avalon territory from a high altitude.

As his attention focused, the images provided by the "Eye of Avalon" enlarged and switched at an extremely fast speed.

Avalon, Glass Island, Lloyd's Quarter...

With the building as the center, he quickly searched every street and every house around it.

Having Philip take Aiwass to look far inward was just a precaution and a necessary precaution.

George was convinced that Emma must not have gone far - the countess must be nearby.

——Because when he broke into the house through the window just now, he faintly smelled a very faint fragrance in the house.

Very light, very light...

Very light...

Very strong...

George's thinking suddenly began to slow down, and the images in front of him slowly stagnated and distorted frame by frame.

His thoughts were still stuck in the Eye of Avalon, unable to be pulled out, but at this moment he vaguely felt as if he were trapped in a warm embrace, and a numbing voice sounded softly in his ears:

"...Nice to meet you, Your Excellency, the Great Guardian of Avalon. This is my... full strength..."

At this moment, the material world.

The black teleportation array spread throughout the room and transformed into a pitch-black cage.

The naked Countess Emma gradually emerged from the void in a transparent manner, embracing the Great Guardian in an intimate, almost entwined embrace. Pink, blood-red, and black thorns grew from her body, entwining the Great Guardian and exchanging their blood.

His eyes, shining with white light, gradually dimmed. Black smoke, symbolizing the curse of the Path of Love, slowly dissipated from his seven orifices.

"My dear...relax..."

She whispered softly in the Great Guardian's ear.

——Traps and sneak attacks are the cautious Emma's favorite combat strategies.

It was originally intended to deal with the strange "Minister Moriarty", but unexpectedly it had an unexpected gain.

The Great Guardian, in the state of "Eye of Avalon", was not sufficiently wary of the outside world.

Anyway, Yulia had memorized the path and had already been branded. There was no need to worry about losing control—no one in Avalon could possibly remove the mark inflicted by the succubus herself.

So she hurriedly told Yulia's coachman to take Yulia home first.

Then, Emma immediately triggered the demon summoning circle she had set up on the top floor of Lloyd's and teleported directly from beside Yulia.

——If we can take this opportunity to charm the Great Guardian of Avalon, wouldn’t the benefits be much greater than charming that weird Minister Moriarty?

This thought suddenly popped up in her mind.

And now, under the full force of her charm, a sharp tail gradually grew behind Emma, ​​horns appeared on her head, and her skin slowly turned crimson.

Throughout the Lloyd's building, those merchants who did not participate in the Candlelight Ceremony began to become excited.

Their skin became redder and redder, and they became more and more excited, as if they were going crazy. Soon, with a scream and the sound of breaking glass, chaos broke out inside Lloyd's.

This is only a small part of the power that has leaked out, but it has already caused a very strong impact.

The characteristics of the succubus gradually began to emerge, a sign that the demon incarnation was using all its strength—one more step and the succubus within would be hatched directly.

but……

Emma felt that the Great Guardian's will was unusually strong, which made her frown.

The pure path of authoritarianism is extremely resistant to mental manipulation - in this tug-of-war on the spiritual level, she actually felt a vague tendency to lose control.

Was I wrong? Was I too reckless?

Emma suddenly felt something was wrong.

She asked herself this question and reflected on it secretly.

——No, I’m not wrong.

She quickly corrected her hesitation.

Anyway, I have already made the move, and there is no chance to regret if I make a mistake. If I miss this opportunity, I am afraid there will never be such a good opportunity again.

My side will also be exposed, and other plans will fail.

If the Great Guardian is successfully controlled, everything will go smoothly...

Winning is a win for both parties, while losing is a loss for both parties.

Thinking of this, Emma persuaded herself and reaffirmed her determination.

Although I can't help but feel a little regretful...but I'm afraid my time as a human being is coming to an end.

Anyway, Emma had already prepared herself mentally.

As a demon incarnate, this day would come sooner or later. That was also her, just like her as the child of the moon, and also her past self.

But Emma didn't realize it at all, and she would never realize it.

She suddenly decided to attack the Great Guardian of the same power level who was slightly more restrained. She temporarily ignored the most direct order from her "father" to "bring back the blood of Hercules" and decided to control the Great Guardian's thinking at all costs. The same goes for those who were charmed by her...

...no difference.

——Without any psychological preparation, Emma was bewitched by the succubus that had not yet hatched in her body at an extremely clever time!
