Arad's unruly savior

Chapter 3990 Benali's Spell
Yudia was startled by the attacking special life form and frantically knocked on Sakuraba's door, seeking help.

Ye Lin unleashed a sword strike, slaying the two special life forms at the spiritual level. The vast sword light traversed the universe, annihilating the enemies with overwhelming force. The eerie crawling sounds that had been heard earlier vanished abruptly, and the strange, greedy heat that had permeated the void ceased to linger.

Everything happened very quickly, arising and ending in a very short time. The wills of many inhabited planets fell back into slumber, and where Ye Lin's sword fell, a withered cherry blossom petal trembled a few times before disintegrating and disappearing.

He didn't actually draw his sword, but instead casually picked up a petal from Benali's courtyard and tossed it into space.

Yudia sensed the crisis was over, calmly patted her dress as if shaking off dust, and then said in a deliberately profound tone:

"I feel that the universe has changed, but I can't pinpoint exactly what has changed. It's incomprehensible, and there are more and more things that are outside the rules."

She nibbled on half a petal of Sirocco, an item related to the realm of primordial destiny. As her spiritual will rapidly strengthened and expanded, she caught a glimpse of a blurry future, but she couldn't understand or describe that state.

Then, Yudia shook his head and left Sakuraba, getting away from Yoru's strange gaze to avoid him suddenly becoming talkative.

She still has many things to do and must continue to overcome her tribulations. As the will of the world of life, her psychological age and real age are not equal to her current appearance.

Benali held a cup of tea, took a slow sip, and smiled, "Tell me about your story with Yudia. Have you known each other for a long time?"

"Yes, it has been a long time, but this is the first time I've seen her will form." Ye Lin smiled, prepared for a moment, and began to talk about Sirocco.

Late at night, a magic lamp was lit in the room, its light neither too bright nor too dim. Benali held a slender ballpoint pen and wrote a summary of the events at her desk... This thing was much more useful than a calligraphy brush.

The lineage of priestesses of the Endless Demon Chronicles are Onmyoji who exorcise evil spirits and suppress demons. They are the guardians of this world and the recorders of history. Benali inherited the responsibility of recording major events that have occurred and passing them down to future generations in the form of books.

"We come from beyond the heavens... The laws of the worlds are secretly clashing, affecting everyone... Adventurer Night Forest unveils the veil of these laws, sorting out the discord, and accelerating the merging of the Endless Demon Codex with the world of Yudia..."

"The rise of the world's will has attracted the attention of some kind of monster from the depths of the universe. It is a special life form on a spiritual level, invisible to the naked eye..."

Benali truthfully recorded everything that happened that day. After finishing writing, she carefully reviewed it to make sure it was correct. Then she used magic to make a copy, sealed it in a different way, and placed it in two different places.

Backing up important data is a good habit.

After sealing the records, Benali looked at the complete map of the Endless Demon Compendium hanging on the wall and sighed softly. The world depicted on the map was much larger than it is now. That was because nearly a hundred years ago, a predecessor gathered all his strength, seized a corner of the world, and transformed it into a vessel to cross the void in search of a new world.

She was still wondering if the complete map was even incomplete, and if the original Endless Demon Register was even larger.

The "cowardly" Benali refrained from asking Ye Lin whether those ancestors had found a suitable world for life. She harbored complex emotions in her heart. Not asking meant not knowing, and the unknown meant that they might have found a world for life similar to Yudia.

After experiencing today's events, and through her understanding of Yudia and Ye Lin's account, Benali was able to make connections and roughly deduce what her world originally looked like.

The Endless Demon Compendium likely originated from a complete living world, and was a part of it. Then, perhaps due to resource depletion or an attack by external enemies, the original living world came to an end. Finally, the world's will and the original powerful beings jointly crafted the Endless Demon Compendium, condensing laws, evolving and cycling, transforming it into a world within a painting, or rather, the Demon Compendium world.

She had heard Ye Lin say that there was a life world called Kronkula, which, in the moment of its annihilation, used a solid piece of land to send its last child, Anton, to another world.

“The world I originally lived in was a world dominated by demons. Ancient records say that our ancestors possessed a sacred artifact called the Hundred Demon Compendium, which recorded the names and characteristics of a hundred demons… Later, the Hundred Demon Compendium was taken away.” Benali murmured to herself, then rubbed the temples on both sides of her head.

After a long period of silence, Benali opened the drawer beside her, took out a blank talisman, and then carefully drew a talisman she had never used before, a talisman she had created for the first time and was preparing to use, using magical ink.

She had made her decision and was fully prepared.

In another room, Ye Lin and Ma Hu were playing chess. The little guy picked up a chess piece with his chubby paws and placed it on the chessboard, looking smug and proud because he was in the lead.

Ye Lin, who wasn't paying much attention, was thinking about how he hadn't done his daily tasks yet, hadn't served the curator's "royal kitchen," and Alice's daily drinks should have produced a new beverage.

Just as he was lost in thought, a beautifully folded origami crane circled twice in front of him before landing on the chessboard.

"I concede." Ye Lin immediately got up and left the room, leaving behind the chessboard he hadn't finished playing with Ma Hu. The origami cranes were Benali's hint.

He gently knocked on Benali's door, and after receiving permission, Ye Lin quickly opened it. The beautiful scene that greeted him made his eyes widen and his heart skip a beat.

Benali knelt with her legs together, her posture upright and elegant. A soft, warm, luxurious carpet was laid beneath her. When she saw him open the door, she slowly lowered her beautiful, smooth body, placing her hands on the ground with her forehead touching the back of her hands. Her soft and beautiful curves conveyed a sense of submission, and her fair and warm skin reflected a flawless, pearly luster under the dim light.

Her beautiful red and white shrine maiden outfit was neatly folded to one side, along with the hemp rope around her waist, the wooden clogs and white socks on her jade feet, the jewelry on her forehead, the bell rope tied around her thighs, and her close-fitting underwear, all neatly arranged to the side.

"Please... take good care of me in the years to come." Benali's voice was filled with shyness and unease, and she was still in a submissive kneeling posture, a tradition of the Endless Demon Codex.

When a woman gets married, she will show a gentle and respectful attitude to her beloved partner on her wedding night.

Ye Lin closed the door with trembling hands, then gently said, supporting Benali's delicate arm:
"Only the first night will we follow your traditions. In my family, mutual respect is the norm."

Benali slowly straightened her graceful waist and then leaned against him, her posture obedient and charming. The girl's beautiful face still had a touch of immaturity, but the curves of her chest had already developed remarkably, with an extraordinary arc. It might not be as good as Mile, but it was not much inferior. She subconsciously covered herself with her arms.

Ye Lin was surprised to find a talisman covered with mysterious symbols pasted on Benali's smooth, flat abdomen, which slightly disrupted the harmonious beauty of her jade-like body.

"What is this, Benali?" Ye Lin asked. He had never seen her use this kind of talisman before, and now she was specifically sticking it on her body, so there must be something special or necessary about it.

Benali bit her lip slightly and told them in a very soft voice that this was a special talisman of their lineage, a tradition, used to test a woman's virginity. If she was not virgin, the talisman would not stick and would fall off on its own. If any glue or paste was used to forcibly stick it to her abdomen, the talisman would heat up and become very hot, showing very obvious abnormalities.

Benali also showed Ye Lin her lineage's book of talismans, which contained knowledge about various talismans, including the one she was currently using. The pattern drawn on it was absolutely consistent, proving that she was not lying.

The magic lamp in the room went out... After an unknown amount of time, low breathing and cries of pain came from the darkness, and the talisman on Benali's lower abdomen fell off.

…………

Mahu and Wumiao Umbrella huddled together, chattering away about their travel plans. Benali had already agreed that once things were settled here, she would take them out to play, to another world.

"Meow." Dressed in a red and white shrine maiden dress, with a pure and elegant temperament, Benali waved her hand. The Meow Umbrella swung in the air and then flew into her hand. Her complexion was fair with a rosy glow, and her eyes shone.

Mahu rolled around excitedly, then immediately put on the backpack he had prepared for a long time, and even stuck a flag with a tiger claw pattern on it.

She had already taken care of most of the matters concerning the Endless Demon Records. Everything has its own order, and she now had enough free time to leave Sakura Garden and go to the world where Night Forest lived to see it for herself.

There's no need to worry about Sakuraba either, as he's protected by a magical barrier.

The first stop has been decided: Xu Zu, where Sister Xiao Yu is.

Xiaoyu has already extended an invitation to her and prepared a gift to welcome her.

The portal opened, and Benali held up the Meow Meow Umbrella, leading the bouncy and excited Mahu, and linking arms with Ye Lin, heading towards Xu Zu.

Since winter had already arrived in Xuzu, with temperatures below zero and the outdoors frozen, Benali specially wore an extra layer of warm underwear and white silk leggings under her shrine maiden skirt.

A new talisman was also pasted on her lower abdomen, covered with mysterious patterns. According to Benali's talisman book, the talisman's effect was contraception.

…………

The Forest of Dolls.

Crazy Bear wore an apron for cleaning and used a broom that was even higher in rank than Yue Na's to sweep up the fallen leaves and petals in the courtyard, piling them up. Bear was always very diligent and didn't need to be paid.

After returning from the Earth Orbit Center, Xiao Su went to the village of the Retti tribe, bringing with her a handwritten letter from the astrologer Rossello. As the leader of a powerful force, Rossello's promises were trustworthy.

Yu Xia leaned against a window in the dark mansion, staring blankly at the Forest of Dolls. Her long eyelashes didn't blink for a long time, as if she had wandered away from home and her consciousness was not in her body.

Imiwu and Yuena habitually, routinely, couldn't stand a day without bickering and making a ruckus. Their voices echoed throughout the magnificent, palatial mansion, chattering and creating a lively atmosphere.

Yuxia yawned slowly. She had caught the gist of what was going on. Yuena was righteously trying to requisition the Dark House and build a Remidia Nose in Bolonx... to spread the light and love of God. Imiwu said that she would rather tear down the Dark House and sell the bricks than give it to her.

Anyone could tell that Yue Na was just joking and chatting idly, but that didn't stop those two guys from having an excuse to cause trouble.

The next topic is whether the Goddess of the Moon should really consider recruiting new members and finding a few successors. Diobel can handle ordinary visitors as a butler here, but she is ultimately not part of the Goddess of the Moon's system.

The key point is that she is older than Imiwu.

Yimiwu said that she already has a preliminary candidate in mind and is currently conducting a rigorous evaluation. She is not going to be careless. Once the candidate is qualified, she will bring him to the Dark Mansion.

She was actually quite nervous and worried. She was the only one left in the lineage of the Goddess of the Underworld. If the "little witch" she chose was not up to standard and caused trouble, wouldn't that be a disgrace to the sect and a disgrace to the Goddesses of the Underworld? She would be too embarrassed to go and worship the ancestral tablets.

So it's not that Yimi Wu never wanted to find apprentices, nor that she didn't want to carry forward the lineage of the Goddess of the Underworld. She was just afraid that she wasn't doing well enough in this regard. She didn't have any predecessors in the system to discuss things with, and she didn't have a large organization to support her. Therefore, Yimi Wu always hesitated and kept looking for something better.

At night, Yimiwu often tossed and turned, filled with anxiety and worry, her mind a jumble of thoughts. She wondered if Yelin could open a back door for her and resurrect the former Goddess of the Underworld. Only with an adult to rely on could she be a carefree little witch.

However, during her trip to the Kingdom of Wisdom, Imi met the "memory" of the former Goddess of the Underworld in the Temple of Memory. The latter calmly accepted her death and had no intention of leaving any lingering attachments in the world.

Imiwu was not in high spirits and looked somewhat sullen. He said helplessly, "I don't have an archbishop to oversee things, nor do I have priest friends to give advice, and I don't have as many brothers and sisters as you, with the same duties and the same system. I am actually all alone."

Within the clergy, clergy members address each other as brothers and sisters.

In matters concerning the recruitment of new members for the lineage of the Goddess of the Underworld, neither Yue Na nor Ye Lin could offer much assistance.

Seeing the short, lonely man's desolate state, Yue Na suddenly felt a pang of sympathy and spoke softly, saying, "Then who is the child you've taken a liking to? Although we can't truly understand the standards and requirements of your lineage and can't offer good advice, we can help in other ways."

Yimiwu replied, "You actually know that child too. He's about the same age as Shumo, a little older, but a tiny bit younger than Hazel and Alice."

"That means he's at most thirteen or fourteen years old, much older than the short, stout girl the previous Moon Goddess picked up," Yue Na thought to herself.

Like Shu Mo, Dwarf Winter Melon was picked up while still an infant.

Then, without keeping everyone in suspense, Imiwu said:

"It's Ronnie, Domina Hayley's sister and Bibi's best friend."
