Chapter Eighty-four My Mount is Arrogant
Maintaining her sweet and lovely smile, Eriol blew up and swung her sword, beheading the giant Flame Demon without even blinking.
So it's just 500 reward points after all? I'll just consider it as earning some extra pocket money then.
In the context of a demon invasion, Eliya, standing on the side of humanity, would naturally not show mercy to these bloodthirsty and cruel creatures. It's better to eliminate him before he can harm others in the future than to stop him from wreaking havoc later on.
The little loli is absolutely not like this because of Yanmo's sneak attack on her. She can swear with the integrity of her cheap brother!
Alicia, now back in human form after shaking off the fresh blood on her wooden sword, began searching for Byakuya's figure. She hadn't had time to worry about it earlier and didn't know where it had been blown away to.
A white horse was walking elegantly on the ground under the slanting sunset, its spirited eyes and the jade-like single horn on its high head showing its extraordinary qualities. Another black horse with a black horn on its head followed closely behind it, trying to get close from time to time in a flattering manner, but was shunned away with disgust.
What's going on here?!
Alyssa looked at Baiya leading the Dreammare in front of her with a divine gaze, and then glanced at the Dreammare's deep eyes, suddenly feeling that the little brain on top was flashing non-stop like thunder, reaching an extent that even Long Ao Tian couldn't withstand.
The reason why the two of them ended up like this is actually due to Eriol: during the map cannon, both of them were affected and the strong shockwave blew them back repeatedly until they crashed into each other and fell down.
Meng Yan is Gong's, Bai Ya is Mu's. We can think that Meng Yan took the opportunity to push down Bai Ya.
It wasn't until then that both sides discovered each other's gender. Even though the Nightmare had fallen and become demonic, it was once a unicorn after all. As the mount of the Goddess, Bai Ya's temperament and image were constantly being optimized and upgraded. The Nightmare became infatuated with it on the spot.
It's like when a delinquent youth, who was wandering around on the streets, accidentally bumped into and knocked down a rich young lady who had sneaked out of her house during her rebellious phase. He became thoroughly attracted to her and started thinking of ways to get close to her. Meanwhile, this young lady got into all sorts of trouble outside due to her pride and haughty attitude, but after the youth stood up for her and helped her out of danger, she realized her feelings for him. Then, a story full of passion, fighting, BL, cuteness, and humor unfolded - if you add in a cold and powerful assassin girl who was separated from the youth for many years, an ordinary schoolgirl who is weak and timid, and a lively life with a (divine beast) palace, it would be even more exciting. You see, that's how it happened.
Of course I don't plan on temporarily changing this book into some nonsensical story like "The Love Story of the Unicorn Bai Ya"…
Even with the thunderstorm raging on, Eriol calmly asked the nightmare: "You've taken a liking to my family's Haku?"
What's with the gaze and tone that seems like an old mother sizing up her daughter's boyfriend?! Don't put on a worn-out, worldly-wise expression on a 12-year-old loli face!!
Meng Yan nodded and also glanced at Bai Ya. The latter was looking at it, saw the situation, turned her head, closed her eyes, and disdainfully snorted.
Bai Ya, you're being arrogant again.
"In principle, I don't object to my contract creature freely falling in love, but you're like this..." Little Lori looked at Meng Yan with a clicking sound, "Although black and white matching is quite harmonious - for example, I know that some cold medicine is packaged as such, but after all, you are a demonized creature. Do you want to let Bai Ya follow you into the abyss to live in darkness?"
Bai Ya bit the hem of Xiao Luoli's skirt and pulled it, with a look on her face that said "What are you talking nonsense about?", "I never planned to live with this guy", and "Don't casually decide for others" - by the way, it's really not easy to clearly recognize these expressions on Ma Ke's face.
"Oh, it seems even Bai Ya herself doesn't quite agree."
The nightmare rushed up, and hurriedly surrounded Bai Ya, rubbing and sniffing and licking and wiping, the latter dodging it constantly, finally kicking it with a kick.
Alas, the revolution has not yet succeeded, comrades still need to work hard. Everyone complains that this year's proud and arrogant attributes are too fast, but if it's really like Bai Ya's slow transformation, it's not necessarily a good thing either. I still have to rush to the cursing sect's ritual scene to cause trouble.
Staring at the nightmare for half a day, unable to get rid of Bai Ya, Eriol's abdomen black master had no choice but to use her killer move: "Alright, Nightmare. You sign an equal contract with me, and I'll give you 5 lollipops every day. This thing should be the favorite of unicorns, right? Every day, you offer these lollipops to Bai Ya and ask if it's willing. My mount is proud, so you have to be patient."
"Last time it was a lollipop that tricked the Black Dragon, this time are you planning to deceive Nightmare!? By the way, shouldn't the attribute column of the lollipop be added with 'also has a strange effect on high-level magic beasts'?"
Bai Ya finally nodded after finding the stairs. Looking at Bai Ya's eyes filled with words like "I, I didn't agree just because I think you're great" and "I just wanted to eat free popsicles", the evil loli almost rolled on the ground. Meng Sang didn't care about that, it happily leaned forward and rubbed against Bai Ya's ears.
This time Bai Ya didn't kick away the nightmare, and at the same time proved how great a lollipop is!
"Alright you two, be affectionate later after we've finished our business." Eriol said with a pat on their heads. "Baiya, you go back first, Meng Xuan stays and signs the contract with me."
After Bai Ya returned to the summoning space, Xiao Loli immediately signed a contract with Meng Yan. After trying Black Cockroach, Black Bat, Black Spider, and even Black Mouse, Xiao Loli finally gave up on her evil naming plan and properly named Meng Yan as Hei Yan (Black Flame).
"Listen, Black Flame, I know this contract is unfair to you. It's okay, I can give you 6 lollipops every day, and the extra one you can use to flirt with other mother unicorns." The little girl whispered to Black Flame, who clearly saw a wicked expression on her face that was characteristic of an uncle.
Bai Ya suddenly burst out of the summoning space in a rage, "crackling" and turning Little Lori into a pile of charcoal - Eriol finally felt Li Hua's misfortune!
"Good grief, women in love are terrifying." Eliysha said as she stood up from the entangled black flames, "Let's not talk about it, we need to hurry up."
Then Eriol specially exchanged a cloak of the cursed sect from the system. After putting it on, she covered her head and looked like an ordinary believer except for her short stature - no, there was still a difference. On the chest of the little loli were embroidered two scarlet suns, which was the symbol she saw on Zayeni's body. When she rescued Vachis before, she found that the ordinary believers had stars on their chests, and some small leaders in charge of command had moons, all of which were disgusting scarlet colors.
This should be an identification of their internal distinction hierarchy.
Stars, moon, sun... Is the overall BOSS of this cursed sect a super fan of some chat app penguin or what!?
Alicia cut off her idle thoughts and walked onto the transmission array.
I am the dividing line of transmission
A highland area surrounded by towering mountain peaks, with snow-capped tops clearly visible. In this rare open space like a plain, a huge magical teleportation array is drawn. And not far from it, there is a large piece of black tents, many members of the cursed sect are using materials at hand to build simple defensive camps, but only half-finished.
Behind this camp, a swirling vortex like a black hole is the most eye-catching. It's not a transmission array or transmission gate, but a rift leading to another dimension.
Although Zorvath and the demons of Derelthor exist in different spaces, they are still within the same world created by Lockley, and can be connected through spatial transmission. However, being on a different plane means another world - of course, more possibilities are not formed worlds, but fragmented chaotic voids. There, the laws set by Lockley are all invalid, and only energy is the purest - in other words, if Hertisty's own energy can't compare to Eriol's goddess form, she still can't beat little Lori.
This is the Titaldi Highlands Snowy Mountains, one of the four adventure forbidden areas in Zhuerliwen, where various rare and powerful magical beasts roam. No one ever thought that a dimensional rift would appear here.
But the cursed sect discovered it, and even ventured into it to take a look. Inside, they found a plane energy storm that could instantly shatter saints or demigods, the legendary world barrier, an ethereal sea that isolated everything, and a sealed stone tower emitting a strong dark aura. Through exploration, they found that inside slept a powerful evil existence similar to the recorded demon king.
The excited cursed sect tried to move the stone tower out, but the power of the seal made their efforts in vain. The disappointed ones reluctantly retreated from the crack and prepared to return to their old nest.
They never did - rifts are extremely unstable and usually disappear within days. But this one somehow maintained its shape in the half-believing, half-doubting wait of the crowd, and to date has existed for nearly half a year!
The spatial mages of the Cursed Sect analyzed in vain and could only speculate that it was the existence in the stone tower and a certain life in Zhuo'er Liren that resonated, causing the connection between the two planes to stabilize.
High-ranking authorities wouldn't be interested in theories, they only care about results. After learning that the dimensional rift was stable, they began to plan to destroy the seal and release the demon king inside. However, due to the long-term plan of building a portal to guide demons in the underground world at that time, it was delayed. But after the plan was destroyed by a mysterious little loli, the cursed sect immediately implemented it.
Removing the seal requires a large amount of magical power, and the awakened Demon King will also need a large number of fresh sacrifices. From these two considerations, the Cursed Church set its sights on the Magical Girls. They contacted the Lone Wolf Thief Guild and formulated a detailed kidnapping plan - including Sophia's. In their view, offering up 10,000 ordinary girls would not be as good as offering a noble-blooded princess to express reverence and piety to the Demon King.
And now, although they failed to kidnap Sophia, they have already gathered enough girls with the necessary magical power to break the seal.
An evil ritual is currently underway!
