The Exorcist Boy: The Book of Conviction

Chapter 86 The Illusion in the Heart

So in the eyes of many people, such a strange combination appeared.

Snow, who was wearing a monster green doll costume, was followed by a woman in a white maid costume.

The two just walked aimlessly in the church, one behind the other.

"That...Miss Phyllis? Why do you keep following me?"

Perhaps some people couldn't stand the strange gazes of others, Snow finally stopped and asked a little depressed.

Because he didn't have any tasks at the moment, he planned to show off his new pajamas everywhere, but for some reason, Phyllis just followed behind him.

"I don't know where to go!"

The maid's answer was very crisp, and she now felt that she needed some orders.

And if possible, she hoped that Snow could do it himself and help him mend that extremely ugly green plush pajamas.

The thing looked like a moldy rug of assorted wool.

Although she didn't know what rare species the other party was making, it didn't affect Phyllis's deep-rooted opinion of the ugly thing.

And those stitches and stitches, which in the eyes of some obsessive-compulsive Phyllis are extremely uncomfortable.

"Nowhere to go?"

Snow shook his head in distress, he has nowhere to go, why are you following me.

"Yes, at this time in the past, I should be preparing breakfast, then dressing His Highness... and taking Lime out for a walk, and then..."

In short, Phyllis's daily routine is to revolve around one person.

By the way, it is worth mentioning that Lime is a little black cat raised by Adele, but when he went back this time, he was not found.

There is a high probability that she ran away during the war, which made Adele uncomfortable for several days.

Snow came to understand that Phyllis couldn't adapt to living a life for herself right now.

After all, the meaning of her existence in the past was for Adele, but now that she left him, she became at a loss.

"Would you like to try to meet some companions and make friends?"

"friend?"

Phyllis was silent for a while, and the haunting girl with twin tails from yesterday appeared in her mind.

It seems to be called Li Nali!
He always had to ask her around, as if he was still vaguely comparing something.

In the end, I don't know why she kept her head down, looking very depressed.

Thinking of this, Phyllis couldn't help but look down, and then she seemed to understand something.

But it's not a big deal, Phyllis felt that it was a burden to fight. She was even more envious of Li Nali's smooth long hair and tall figure.

"Actually, Li Nali is a nice person. She is the most gentle existence to everyone in the sect. It just so happens that you are all girls, so you must have a common language."

But as soon as the words came out of his mouth, he couldn't help but regret it.

Forget to think with your own brain before saying it.

But by chance, Li Nali just walked out from the corner with a stack of documents in her arms, so she must have heard it.

"It will make people feel very happy if you praise like this, but talking about girls behind their backs is not a gentleman's behavior."

Although that's what he said.

However, the steps taken by Li Nali's long fair legs under the short skirt became obviously lighter.

"Also, Snow, what's the matter with your weird clothes? It's really ugly. Let me mend it for you when I get a chance."

Almost everyone expressed the meaning of "garbage" to Snow's craftsmanship, which made Snow feel a little hurt.

This green dinosaur plush pajamas wasted a lot of his strength.

"Obviously the surface of dinosaurs is rough like this."

Snow muttered dissatisfiedly, he felt that no one in this world understood his good intentions.

Then he stretched out his hand, wanting to take over Li Nali's high burden.

"No need, Brother Komui told me to remind you to pick a suitable time to bring Phyllis there after seeing you. The Generalissimo seems to have urged you."

Li Nali did not accept the other party's kindness, but reminded him instead.

But what is the "dinosaur" Snow mentioned just now.

"Why so fast?"

Snow's face protruding from the dinosaur's mouth collapsed again, and the Muslim group was going to face that woman Sarah again in a few days.

"It's better to hurry up, after all, he is the Generalissimo!"

Li Nali kindly reminded her, although she didn't know why Snow had to put on a reluctant face every time he faced his "adoptive mother".

"Okay... I'll go right away."

Snow returned to his room with a sad face, then put on a set of normal clothes for himself, and led Phyllis back to the direction of Ferlinde Road.

On the way out, he also ran into Kanda and Allen. The two guys turned their faces to the other side, as if they were angry with each other.

In front of them was a search team member covered in bandages, who kept urging the two of them to speed up.

"That's great! You can go catch the train..."

Snow sighed with emotion, every new exorcist, except for the welcome ceremony, no one can avoid chasing a vehicle once.

It is said that when Kanda performed his mission for the first time, he didn't have time to buy a boat ticket, and the ship had just started.

Then he directly chose to jump into the water, relying on his powerful swimming skills to catch up with the rising anchor... His experience and techniques were extremely sophisticated.

22 Phillind Road...

Snow looked up at the building that looked like a witch's castle, and painful memories flooded his mind again.

Although this is a well-known wealthy area, this area occupied by No. 22 is extremely incompatible with the layout and style of the entire area.

"I am back……"

"excuse me……"

Snow pushed open the door. Unlike the gloomy atmosphere outside, the inside of the castle is quite bright, and the walls are covered with many murals that are very expensive at first glance.

The white candle is the only light source in the corridor of this old castle.

But from Snow's impression, the candles above seemed to have never been replaced, and seemed to have been burning endlessly.

After entering the formal hall, the style of the scene inside changed again. The colorful crystal pendant lamps decorated the inside as if it were an open dance party.

However, Snow was already very familiar with these things. Apart from giving outsiders a sense of mystery, this arrangement did not have any sensory impact on Snow.

"Sarah? Are you there?"

Snow yelled at the empty room twice.

It used to be like this. Although Sarah lived here sometimes, it was difficult to find her most of the time.

"Strange? Why does it feel like no one is there, obviously urging us to come here."

Snow turned to Phyllis and said.

So they searched from room to room, but they still couldn't find each other.

"Forget it, we still..."

Snow was startled suddenly, he felt that something was wrong, the layout of the room hadn't changed at all, every place was so familiar to him.

But everything here is exactly the same as his memory.

It was a trick, it was an illusion copied from his consciousness.

"When I first came here, I gave him a blow. I remember that I was like this at the beginning."

When he was first brought in as a child, he was also played around by the illusion.

While muttering, Snow looked back at Phyllis seriously, and found that although her expression remained unchanged, the deep part of her eyes was very dull.

She must have also been drawn into the illusion mirror. I don't know what she saw, but the Phyllis in front of her should be fake, just a memory illusion.

"Second 【INNOCENCE】—Activate."

Snow activated the second [INNOCENCE], and at the same time strengthened the telepathy between himself and Phyllis.

The most important way to get rid of illusions is to strengthen one's will and heart, and not to be confused by illusions.

Snow is already very familiar with Sarah's methods, and the current environment is nothing more than using his own memory to highly overlap and confuse it with reality, thus trapping him and making him unable to escape.

If I guessed correctly, they are probably still standing outside the door now.

Did you get caught when you opened the door?

But on Phyllis's side... what she was facing probably shouldn't be on the same level as him.

Because until now there has been no response from the other party.

"It seems that I haven't forgotten all the things I taught you, and your performance is not bad! You woke up so quickly."

The voice sounded from behind Snow, and the scene in front of him was like a shattered mirror, shattered all of a sudden.

The scene in front of him has changed, and they are still at the door.

Then Snow felt a burst of fragrance.

As soon as the back sank, it was soft and pressed against him. White arms stretched out from his back and looped lazily around his shoulders.

Sarah's disheveled head protruded from his right shoulder, looking curiously at Phyllis who stood motionless.

The original big wavy hairstyle is no longer what it looks like, and I don't know what life this woman is living these days.

"That's not good!"

Snow squinted at Sarah, who was not walking straight. Fortunately, he was used to her appearance long ago.

If an ordinary man saw Sarah like this, he might lose control on the spot.

This woman actually came out wearing a translucent suspender pajamas like this.

And one side has already drooped down. If she hadn't been attached to Snow's body, I really doubt whether it would have slipped down immediately.

"Oh! Don't you like it? I find it quite comfortable, and it's pretty..."

"I'm not talking about you, I'm talking about her..."

Snow whitened Sarah, and then pointed to Phyllis who was standing there dumbfounded.

Her face looked a little bad, frowning, as if she was going through some struggle.

The depth of digging into the heart depends on the power Sarah exerts on the caster. With the appearance of Phyllis in front of her, I am afraid that the sinking will be deeper.

"Oh! I was just testing it out, after all, you were the same back then.

But you say, what is the child seeing now? "

One of Sarah's abilities is to drag people into illusions, and the composition of the illusions she creates often depends on the deepest and most sensitive memories hidden in the parties themselves.

This ability has the same effect on demons, and it is even surprisingly good, because the soul inside the demon is chaotic and contradictory. Once it is hit by Sarah's moves, it will even collapse itself.

"What I saw was of course the most painful day in my life. As for the details, only I know."

Snow gave her an annoyed sideways glance, this woman has been engaging in such indecent acts since she came up.

As far as he knew, Phyllis had a lot of painful memories in her past, and she was really a vicious woman who exposed her scars as soon as she came up.

Right now, Phyllis's expression began to be painful.

"Maybe that child is experiencing a cliff that she can't cross! In fact, I have always wanted to know, what did you see in the illusion on that first day?"

Sarah pressed her cheek to Snow's neck, and this intimate gesture made Snow tremble all over.

"I?"

Snow was silent for a while, and he didn't know how to explain it, because the scenes he saw were completely out of his memory.

In contrast, he was more like a third party in that illusion.

A dazzling white light pierced the earth... It was a blood-red sky, with ruins everywhere, and countless meteors falling down.

However, this scene only happened once on the first day.

The rest is other things, like he was bullied by his classmates at school when he was young, and then he accidentally blown one of the balls...

This kind of memory will indeed be impressive and unforgettable.

But of course he couldn't tell Sarah, Snow turned his head to look at Phyllis again, the other's forehead was covered with sweat.

"Almost enough! Don't go overboard the first time."

"Oh! You actually expressed your concern for another woman in front of a woman."

Sarah puffed up her cheeks, then hugged her arms a little tighter.

No matter how acquainted the two were, Snow couldn't stand it. After all, he was a normal man, so he could only break free forcefully.

"Woooooo!"

Sarah's arms were forcibly broken apart by the man in her arms, and then her face collapsed, and her mouth began to whimper like a poor little animal.

Snow: "..."

But this time, he didn't intend to spoil this woman anymore, he directly stretched out his hand and put it in front of Phyllis, and then snapped his fingers lightly.

Accompanied by the fluctuation of psychic energy, Phyllis's body became alert, and her spirit was directly separated from the nightmare.

Regarding Sarah's general methods, Snow still has some experience.

Sure enough, after realizing that Phyllis had woken up, Sarah also stopped faking crying. It seemed that she was still taking care of her face as the Generalissimo.

Although the current appearance is very unconvincing.

"Long time no see, little white cat, how are you doing? How are you doing these days?"

As soon as Phyllis opened her eyes, she realized that the woman with shaggy hair in front of her was completely different from the queen with super aura in her previous memory.
