Chapter 439: Go ahead and kill her (3rd update, 10700 words! Please give me a monthly ticket!)
Aiwass did nothing else.
Whether it was to report safety to Bishop Mathers, or to find the Great Guardian who might still be searching for Isabel with the Eye of Avalon, or to find the whereabouts of the missing Countess Emma, or to ask Isabel what happened...
As for what went wrong last night, Aiwass no longer cared.
After Aiwas returned to the Temple of Silver and Tin, the first thing he did was to find Ligeia, briefly explained what had just happened, and handed Isabel in the form of "Yulia" to her.
"Don't worry, kid! I'm watching, nothing will go wrong."
Ligeia narrowed her eyes slightly and said simply, "Just do whatever you want to do!
"If you need help, come back to me anytime!"
The implication is that there is no need to worry about Emma's identity.
Kill her.
It doesn't matter even if we declare war directly on Xingti.
If a war breaks out, she will be at the forefront.
This world-class strongman, whose age is close to three digits and who has devoted her life to the cause of peace, was really angered by the despicable behavior of the Xingti people.
But she did not suggest "letting Aiwass protect Isabel while she kills Emma herself."
That would certainly have a higher chance of success - Emma would never be able to defeat Ligeia.
Even though they are both at the fifth energy level, there are still differences between the fifth energy levels.
The gap between the fifth energy level and the fifth energy level is even larger than that between the fourth energy level and the first energy level.
If her "father" had come, Ligeia might have been a little wary. But against Emma, Ligeia didn't even need the scepter or the crown; the Dragon Blood Command Spell alone was enough to kill her.
But Ligeia knew that Aiwass would not agree.
Although Aiwass didn't look angry—his skin didn't flush with excitement, his face didn't become ferocious with hatred. His body was relaxed, his hands hanging naturally. His neat clothes were not a mess, even his bow tie was tied properly.
His voice was calm and gentle, and his eyes were clear and bright.
It looked more like he was about to give a speech on stage, or solemnly sing a hymn to the candlelighter in a chapel.
However, Ligeia knew very clearly that Aiwass was going to kill someone.
This elegant man was completely enraged. Ligeia had never felt such clear and calm murderous intent in Aiwass.
It wasn't about wanting to murder someone. It was more like I was trying to complete a task.
Just like a storm descending and a flood rising, he wanted to kill the other person, just as if it were a natural disaster that was irresistible and inevitable.
Ligeia, though childless, was married, and lived many years, pretending to be foolish, though not truly foolish.
She understands men.
At this point, she would not interfere as an elder and would only give Aiwass the utmost respect and support.
Aiwass nodded, then went to his bedroom solemnly and took all the equipment he had not brought with him.
Fortunately, I made preparations last night, Aiwass thought.
In this way, it won’t be a problem if you want to kill someone.
He also took a ceremonial knife, tied it to a rope and used it as a necklace, hanging it directly on his chest. From a distance, it looked like a shining cross.
only……
After Aiwass left, Ligeia looked at "Yulia" and whispered, "Why don't you change back?"
——Were you so scared that you forgot?
This is the subtext that she has not yet said but is hidden at the end of her language.
But Isabel just shook her head.
“If Aiwass kills Emma, it will inevitably lead to war.
"But if war comes, Avalon will not be the one declared against—we have nothing to defend, nothing to argue about. We are the ones who are more angry.
"If there must be a war between Avalon and Star Antimony, it must be started by me. It cannot be Aiwass who kills Emma, but Emma who tries to attack me."
Although this was indeed the case, Isabel was safely rescued by Aiwass.
"Not many people will know what happened before. I became Yulia, was attacked, and then started a war. This might bring trouble and criticism to Yulia."
Isabel said calmly, "Besides, those previous stories were too convoluted and complicated, making them difficult for people to spread and understand. Audiences crave simpler stories that can stir their emotions and be understood by those without cultural backgrounds."
"So, I had to do another play. And I was going to be the actor – and that's why I didn't [take off my makeup].
"I think Aiwass must have guessed it. That's why he handed me over to you."
She is conscious and has clear thinking.
She felt that her mind had never been so clear as it was now...
This was the first time that Isabel tried to use her own will to achieve some strategies that could be called "conspiracy".
Even if its purpose is so simple and its means so clumsy...
But at least this was the first script Isabel wrote on her own accord.
Isabel asked Ligeia earnestly, "Can you protect me? Even from Emma's attacks, sneak attacks, and manipulations?"
The little dragon girl, who was even shorter than Isabel, just smiled broadly.
She said without hesitation, "Of course..."
Ligeia said this and suddenly laughed: "Ah, it seems you don't have to go to the market.
"—They're here. They're really proactive."
Ligeia's brows were slightly furrowed, but her young face looked majestic.
"Let's go out and take a look."
She whispered.
At this moment, Aiwass had not even left the Hall of Silver and Tin - he was just walking into the Round Table Hall when the howling of the storm came from outside.
Outside the Temple of Silver and Tin, the situation shifted dramatically. Sensing hostility, the griffins on the Griffin Bridge took flight, attempting to intercept.
However, in the storm stirred up by Philip, he forcibly brought the Great Guardian and a somewhat unfamiliar demonic being, tore apart the storm net, and broke into the Temple of Silver and Tin without any scruples!
Aiwass stopped on the glass steps and looked up.
When Philip was far away, he raised his voice to warn: "George and I may be controlled, Aiwass... But even so, I must stand with George. Sorry..."
Then, it was suddenly whipped.
Then he uttered a low gurgling sound and suddenly lost consciousness and the ability to speak.
"I know, it's not your fault."
Aiwass said calmly: "Emma is fine... a true fifth-level succubus would definitely not be able to withstand the Great Guardian."
He raised his left hand slightly. As a blue magic circle appeared, the Book of Law appeared out of thin air, floating above his palm.
He looked at the demon that was hugging George.
Just by making eye contact, Aiwass felt his soul trembling with the astonishing beauty.
Her skin was a drunken red, and behind her were a pair of bat-like wings. She had long, silvery-white curly hair that reached down to her thighs, a pair of small, delicate horns, and a tail that resembled both a scorpion and a lion.
She was naked, save for a very long, silver-white snake wrapped around her. It looked like underwear, a rope, and shackles, covering her insignificant parts while leaving her vital parts exposed.
Her eyes were pink, and her pupils were a dull black. Scarlet thorns dangled from her wrists, resembling chains or whips. It was a demon at least three times more beautiful than Emma, and its appearance was completely different from hers.
The master of the "lust" mark, the beloved concubine of the Fallen Angels. A high-ranking phantom demon on the same level as the Night Demon and the Punishment Demon.
——The real "succubus".
As soon as she appeared, she looked at Aiwass with extremely enthusiastic eyes.
The Great Guardian's upper body was naked, his back covered in several pink whip marks, as clear as scars, which flickered with each breath. His pupils were completely devoid of light, and he stood motionless before the succubus like a puppet, staring at Aiwass expressionlessly.
It was completely different from the gentle "charm" and "suggestion" before.
Those who are struck by this whip will offer complete loyalty.
Aiwass stood on the glass steps and sighed, "I didn't expect you would dare to attack the Temple of Silver and Tin directly."
"Why shouldn't I? I'm not her."
The succubus laughed sweetly, and spoke in a soft voice that was completely different from Emma's: "Emma doesn't dare, what does it have to do with me?
"She serves her 'father', and I serve only for my own pleasure—"
Aiwass understood.
The succubus's implication was that it didn't matter at all if war broke out.
She is not a child of the moon, not a star person, and she does not have a deep relationship with her previous generation of children of the moon.
Rather, the succubus harbored a kind of hatred towards Red Phase—a hatred that had long been sealed within Emma's body and could never truly be hatched.
If Emma is not killed, she will never get out.
She was eager to bring trouble to Xingtan to avenge the "Red Phase" who sealed her away and kept Emma in a stable state.
"You don't have a natal demon yet, right?"
The succubus looked at Aiwass eagerly, holding her chest with one hand and a bright smile on her face: "Why don't you take me in...how about it?
"After all, it was your blood that awakened me... My master, my beloved. You are my father, my benefactor, my lover..."
The succubus' eyes were filled with tears and rich emotions, but because they were too rich, they seemed a little artificial.
She reached out her hand to Aiwass, singing like an opera: "When I woke up, I remembered who woke me. I went through so much trouble to get her to let me out... I came here to find you.
"I swear to the Fallen Angels that I have come to you to make a contract... As long as you are willing to give me that sacred blood..."
The succubus' voice became gentle and charming: "I am definitely not your enemy..."
Even if it's just a sound, it's enough to bewitch the mind.
But Aiwass just remained silent.
He simply extended his right hand and gripped the ceremonial knife in front of him, blood seeping from between his fingers.
His eyes became compassionate, and the Book of Law held in his left hand began to automatically turn the pages rapidly.
"I see," Aiwass said softly, "I understand."
"So you mean—"
"——As I said before, I'll give you a tarot card."
Aiwass said calmly: "Although it seems that the subject has changed, the promise is still valid.
"But... I need to sincerely apologize to Sizhu first. I'm afraid I might disrupt his ceremony."
After Aiwass finished speaking, the crow perched on his shoulder suddenly opened its eyes, and its blood-red, gem-like pupils stared at the succubus with strong murderous intent and malice.
It shattered in an instant, and countless black, phantom-like feathers scattered. The sun, which had just passed noon, was suddenly replaced by a bloody night.
The dark cloud of chaos and fear gradually spread across the entire Glass Island.
The clear water had turned to blood without anyone noticing. A fine rain of blood fell from the sky.
The Night Demon, like a broken doll, stood in front of Aiwass.
"I have remembered this grudge for a long time."
Vignes uttered a disembodied yet malicious voice: "Whether you are her or not... you must pay her debt."
The succubus was stunned: "Night demon?"
Countess Emma did not recognize the "Raven", but the succubus definitely knew her own superior demon.
But soon, the succubus's expression suddenly changed: "Sixth energy level? How is it possible——"
"Be careful, Vignes. Don't kill George and Philip."
Aiwass interrupted the succubus: "Go ahead...kill her."
