"Hey, what's going on?" Ignoring her severe shoulder injury, Philsa asked the enraged shadow of the wind in astonishment.
However, his response was another dozen or so wind blades.
Philsa sprinted toward Jelu, getting cut almost every time.
After reuniting with Philsa, Jelu anxiously explained, "Sister Sherry has completely... become a demon!"
"How is that possible? I clearly sensed the aura of the vortex!" He relied on his magical sense of touch to discern the outside world; it was impossible that he couldn't distinguish between humans and demons. It was absolutely impossible.
"You can't see what she looks like now!"
Jelu looked fearfully at the swaying shadows in the wind ahead.
The demon named "Shirley" finally broke free of the wind veil that bound her. Her eyes glowed, her body was pale, and her long, lush, crimson hair was half wrapped around her body and half flowing like flames.
She also controls the surrounding wind with her mind; as long as there is wind, she can turn it into a blade, a deadly blade sharper and faster than anything else.
"You're kidding me, right? She just defeated Midnight Slayer with me..." Before she could finish speaking, Philsa collapsed into Gerlu's arms, overwhelmed.
Is this fate? Yug resurrects his lover, who ultimately becomes a monster;
He resurrected Sherry himself, and in the end...
The Shadow of the Wind inexplicably paused its movements, its emerald eyes fixed on the two of them without ever stopping.
"Does she...does she know about our relationship..." Jielu whispered, her voice trembling.
It's not impossible that Sherry, while still surrounded by the tornado in the altar and with her soul and body merging, may have heard what Thin Blade said.
Thin Blade had tried to distract Gerlu during the battle by using the ambiguous relationship between Gerlu and Philsa as a starting point, knowing that Gerlu would reveal her weakness if he was involved.
With the help of his companions, Firza managed to stand, muttering to himself, uttering a sorrowful judgment: "I understand..."
"Wind Vortex" did indeed awaken as expected. The Shadow of Wind floated into the air and looked around, noticing a large group of people approaching.
Midnight Slash regrouped the rest of his men, intending to take down "Wind Vortex." Although they had lost their leader, they were still mercenaries and could act based on their own judgment.
Jelu asked Philsa what was going on, while staring blankly as Midnight Slash surrounded the "Wind Vortex".
The archers unleashed a volley of arrows, but none struck their prey—the arrows pierced through Shirley and scattered. She was like a phantom, impervious to ranged weapons.
The emerald mist spread again, then surged rapidly, transforming into countless wind blades. Sherry once again enveloped herself in the wind curtain, returning to her state of Wind Shadow, and began to sway and move like a swirling dance, releasing all the wind blades and attacking the crowd with a frenzied onslaught.
In an instant, blood filled the sky. Sharp blades slashed at enemies as easily as cutting vegetables. No one could see their shapes or their trajectories; all that could be seen was rivers of blood and mutilated corpses scattered everywhere.
The wind blades continued to fly back and forth, severing throats, limbs, and lives. The ground was a dark red, truly like a blood-soaked land ravaged by demons.
Seeing this, Jielu didn't even dare to scream; her whole body trembled.
Philsa learned of the horrific scene through her magical perception.
The suffocating power of the vortex, the terrifyingly violent evil aura, and the utterly cruel and unspeakable methods of torture...
She's not Shirley!
Philsala pulled Jelu back, sensing that the mist was about to spread to their side.
"She's not Sherry! She's Priscilla! The one who has awakened is the 'Femme Fatale of a Fallen Kingdom,' Priscilla!"
"How is this possible? Could it be... that the Wind Vortex Stone we obtained is fake?"
"It's true, Yug didn't lie to us! But..."
The secret that Shirley never told and dared not tell was that she and Priscilla were actually one and the same.
It wasn't a rumor that she was the reincarnation of the enchantress; it was an absolute fact. Felsa had long suspected this, and lately, whenever he thought of her, he would see her image superimposed on that of the enchantress Priscilla.
Jielu had heard her companions mention this matter several times, but she had almost forgotten about it.
She had heard from her companions that the enchantress Priscilla was connected to the destruction of the kingdom a thousand years ago and had orchestrated a massacre known as the "Full Moon Blood Dance".
Even if Jelu never witnessed the so-called Full Moon Blood Dance massacre.
But what we encountered today is probably just one example of it.
The shadow of the wind kept closing in on the two of them, and they kept retreating until they had nowhere left to go.
Even if they fought at their peak, they would be no match for Priscilla, who was practically an ancient witch.
Moreover, Felsa is currently seriously injured, unable to raise his left shoulder, and cannot even hold a sword. If it were up to Geral alone, he would die in less than a minute.
Having made up her mind, Gerlu raised her sword and suddenly stood in front of Philsa, ready to draw her sword and engage in battle.
"No! Get away!" Philsa quickly stopped her, ignoring her own injuries.
"If I die, it should be able to calm Sherry's anger."
"What nonsense are you talking about? She's not Sherry!"
"Indeed... but if that's the case, then I can swing my sword without hesitation!"
"Stop this! Get out of the way!"
But this time, Jerus didn't obediently listen to his companion. Instead, he pushed him aside and took a step forward himself.
This time, there was no escaping the final battle. She closed her eyes, and in that instant, many memories flooded back—the bittersweet experiences of the past, and that distant dream…
Just as she was about to concentrate, the extreme icy demonic energy erupting behind her disrupted her mind.
