Princess' personal painter

Alyssa Mina St. Olysses...she's still fighting.

Converted to the time on the other side of the world, the battle has lasted for three days and three nights.

Affected by the scarlet moon above the Dark Moon Capital, people in the city are still trapped in killing each other. Although they have been obstructed by Irene several times, once the desire in people's hearts is aroused, there is absolutely no way out. easily suppressed.And Luna also continuously draws strength from this delicious ceremony, her strength becomes stronger and stronger, and at the same time she is getting closer and closer to the real "god".

However, Luna is not the only one who can draw power from the festival.

Those who sacrificed their lives in the mutual killings also became the source of Irene's strength.Whenever she was exhausted, the influence of the scarlet moon would rekindle people's desire to kill due to the loss of her suppression, resulting in a rapid increase in the number of victims, and these souls scattered like fireflies In turn, it became the nourishment of Irene, bringing her strength back to the same level as Luna.

This seems to be an endless cycle.

Therefore, although Luna has the upper hand most of the time, as long as she still can't make up her mind to kill Irene, this tug-of-war will continue...until the hundreds of thousands of people in the city become festivals. The sacrifice on the table became the sweet bait for the two in this battle.

Finally, Luna said blankly: "You can't stop me, just give up."

"No." Erin replied in a low voice.

She has long been in a state of extreme mental exhaustion, almost relying on her faith to support her until now.Those cries of pain and despair that were almost close at hand, and the scenes of people killing each other from time to time at the edge of her vision, made Erin suddenly return to the scene of the massacre that happened in Inster City. She was powerless at that time. Facing Prince Charles' iron cavalry, he had no choice but to flee desperately, praying that someone would come to save him... Later Sisyana was like a goddess descended from the sky, saving all the survivors including her.

And now, she was standing in the same position as Sisyana back then.

Luna went on to say: "Instead of pity others, you might as well think about your current situation."

"I know, I already feel... the malice of this world towards me."

In this world ruled by demon gods and rejecting light, Irene's unscrupulous use of holy magic to fight has already attracted the attention of the world's powerhouses.In her perception, at least ten strong men above the holy rank had already come outside the city, watching the battle between her and Luna.A little farther away, there are tens of thousands of legions marching towards this city, presumably they will be able to surround the Dark Moon Capital in a short time.

Perhaps because of the scarlet moon on the sky, the strong outside the city did not enter the city for the time being.

And the killing that was happening in the city seemed insignificant to those strong men, they stood indifferently outside the city, and no one chose to help their compatriots.There was no attempt to open the closed city gates, allowing the people in the city to escape this desperate area by themselves.

Yes, this is the code of conduct of the demons who believe in "evil".

Even if Irene saves the city in the end, she will be besieged by demons after exposing her human identity.

Luna snorted coldly: "Have you seen it too? The battle between us is meaningless now. We are not enemies. As long as I can stand at the top of the demon clan, I can represent the entire demon clan and form alliance with you." Alliance, I have such qualifications as the avatar consciousness of the demon god. At that time, even if you want to rebuild the dismembered holy empire, it will be an extremely simple matter...Why are you still so obsessed with it?"

"...Can I take these words as my approval?"

Luna raised her proud head: "No, this is just my pity for 'her'."

"So, which one is the real you? The 'Luna' who couldn't lie and was unwilling to face killing? Or the 'Luna' who put on a clown mask and became cynical? Pursuing the evil 'Luna' for the 'Demon God'? Please tell me the answer."

Luna looked at Irene with ridiculous eyes: "Who am I? Is there any difference? After a while, I will truly merge with her. And all you care about is this beautiful skin." .As long as you promise to form an alliance with me, it doesn’t matter if I hand over this body to you to play with. This is what you’ve been looking forward to, isn’t it?”

"No, it's different." Irene shook her head and said in a sad tone, "You have let go of the unforgivable crime, so I can't just forgive you without authorization. But, even so, I want to see To the 'Luna' I was with before, I want to know if it is her desire to destroy this city, and if she is longing for salvation... As long as there is a possibility of salvation, I will never let it go She fell into the abyss of sin..."

"Wanting to save her...that's a ridiculous way to say it."

After being silent for a while, Luna's tone suddenly turned cold: "In that case, let me see if this sentence is from your sincerity." Then, she stretched out the dagger in her hand, and slapped it in the air. A closed arc was cut out in the center, and while she was completing the movement, a drastic change occurred in this field.

The frenzied breath seemed to be frozen, and the scarlet moon on the sky turned into a crystal clear ice blue in an instant, and the endless screams from afar also dissipated in an instant, and this piece of land that was still full of frenzied aura just now disappeared. The space suddenly became cold and silent.It was only after Irene was a little dazed that she realized that the killings in this city had stopped due to the disappearance of the restless red moon.

Under the returning cold moonlight, Luna, dressed in silver and white satin, was as bright and ruthless as the moon god who descended into the world, and she said expressionlessly: "As you wish, the festival of the full moon has been suspended. I will give you a chance to defeat me... as long as you can defeat me, I will return the real 'Luna' to you."

Irene was slightly taken aback, and then showed a firm expression: "Is it enough to just defeat you?"

"Yes, very good conditions, right?" Luna said mockingly, "Did you know that the so-called Demon God is the biggest gambler in the world... But, Demon God rarely loses bets. As the candidate she placed her last hope on, do you now have the courage to take this gamble?"

"Of course!"

As soon as the words fell, Irene felt a terrifying red glow shooting towards her.She was startled from the bottom of her heart, but when she wanted to dodge, she was a bit too late. The sharp dagger cut through the skirt of her clothes, leaving a deep gash on her left arm, and the warm blood immediately disappeared. Welled up from the wound.

"Don't blame me for not reminding you, if you lose the bet, your only fate is death." Luna said coldly, "She was always reluctant to hurt you before, but my patience has been exhausted, from now on From the beginning, I won't be merciful anymore."

The severe pain from the shoulders, on the contrary, made Irene's consciousness clearer by three points.A raging fighting spirit was ignited in her eyes, and she said in a deep voice, "It's exactly what I want!"

The festival of killing has been temporarily suspended, which means that neither he nor Luna can gain power from the festival of sin and death.Obviously, such a situation was more dangerous for Irene, but it also allowed her to temporarily relieve her burden, and no longer had to be distracted by the death that happened nearby.

Seeking a chance of victory in adversity, isn't that what I have always done?

Thinking of this, Sisyana's dazzling figure when she saved Insterburg flashed in her mind again. A smile flashed on the corner of Irene's mouth, and she took a deep breath and said, "Your sin and evil Arrogance, let me purify it!" As she spoke, she pointed forward the holy staff in her hand, and a dazzling beam of light suddenly fell from the sky, illuminating the entire city in an instant.

On this day, the earth-shattering battle between Irene and Luna is destined to cause violent turmoil in the world that has been staggering in darkness for a long time.

Chapter 68 Holiness That Will Wither

"Ultra-level-Holy White Domain."

A cold and solemn singing sound spewed out from Erin's lips.

At this moment, people in the whole world could see the incandescent beam of light that appeared in the north. The extremely brilliant light turned half of the world into daylight, and it was reflected in the fearful eyes of the demons.Almost at the same time, this level of super-holy-level magic also caused a fierce counterattack from the dark world. Around the light beam, there were also countless vine-like gloomy lights breaking out from the ground and intertwining towards Baimang.

The fierce battle between black and white forces ignited gorgeous fireworks around the Dark Moon Capital.

The violent energy formed a storm that swept everything, and the shaking earth let out a rumbling roar. The scorching magma took advantage of the situation and tore through the surface of the earth, and began to flow on the earth... This is like the end of the world. The strong had to back away in shock.

The demon army, which was marching towards the capital of the dark moon, was also frightened by this terrifying power for a while, and stopped dozens of kilometers away, waiting for instructions from the upper echelons.

The center of the storm, the altar where Irene and Luna confront each other.Both of them were bathed in the splendid holy light. Irene held her staff flat with both hands, concentrating on continuously pouring out the holy power to exert pressure on Luna, but the latter was not suppressed by the vast holy light, and remained as if she was idle. Ting strolled towards Erin like walking.

"This body has human blood, you can't suppress me with light magic."

"I know." Erin responded in a low voice.

Luna showed an expression of great interest: "So, are you planning to make an enemy of the whole world?"

Irene showed a weak smile: "If this world is wrong, what's the point of being an enemy of it?"

"Very well, being regarded as an enemy by the world, it is impossible for you to survive no matter what. Instead of letting you perish under the backlash of the world, it is better to let me take your life." Luna licked her lips expectantly , "This last piece of sweet sin is really very tempting!"

As soon as the words fell, there was the sound of something breaking in the air, and Eileen felt a sharp energy suddenly extending to her side. Her expression changed, and before she had time to react, she felt two pitch-black shackles coming from her. The soles of her feet came out, and her ankles were bound in an instant.

Immediately afterwards, several other shackles soared into the air, rushing towards Irene from all around with their teeth and claws open, and they were about to touch her skin.At the last moment, I only heard Irene yelling "Holy Flame" in a low voice, and the flames suddenly rose around her, and the black shackles were quickly burned to ashes in the continuous sound of "chucking", and Irene's The magic circle glowed under her feet, and it carried her away from the position just now.

Even so, several bloodstains suddenly appeared on her ankle.

Irene was about to drive the holy power to heal the wound, but she felt that Luna was approaching rapidly like a sharp blade, which forced her to take a defensive posture.After a short while, red arrows appeared from mid-air and shot at her. Amid the continuous "bang bang", Irene's figure was like a boat in a huge wave, crumbling and might capsize at any time .

Sure enough, even if he used powerful domain magic to turn this battlefield into his home field, he still couldn't compete with the mighty her.

A wry smile appeared on the corner of Erin's mouth.

It seems that the only way to gamble is to use that method.

In the midst of her thoughts, there was quite a sudden moment in the defense. A scarlet arrow pierced through the sacred wall and pierced deeply into her thigh.Under the impact of the huge force, Irene groaned and half-kneeled on the ground, blood quickly spread on the holy white robe.

Enduring the severe pain, Irene quickly calmed down, strengthened the protection of the magic circle, and at the same time put one hand on her thigh, and was about to drive the holy power to heal the wound—however, with the swaying of the space in front of her, she was dressed in silver A well-dressed Luna appeared in the field of vision, and the dagger in her hand shone with breathtaking light.

In terms of close combat skills, Irene knew that she was definitely not Luna's opponent, so she gritted her teeth again and recited a spell: "Cross Holy Judgment!"

In the eyes of the strong outside the city, the cross formed by the inexhaustible holy light exudes a shining holy light, pressing towards Luna with undeniable power, and the terrifying momentum once again made the world I felt trembling—but was cut into two pieces by the scarlet sharp blade in the next instant, scattered into colorful fluorescent lights under the violent buzzing sound, and sprinkled tragically on the altar.

Taking advantage of Luna's offensive being blocked for a while, Irene opened the distance again.With a few taps of the staff in her hand, dazzling light bloomed from the tip of the staff, spreading into several rainbow-like ripples in front of her, and she quickly chanted: "Angel's wings—please give me hope body!"

However, before the formation was formed, Luna's ghostly figure reappeared in front of Irene.The pair of ice-blue pupils glanced at Irene indifferently, then heard a clear cold snort, and saw the daggers flying straight through the colorful rainbow light one after another, in the scene like broken glass. Amidst the sound of "cracking", the dagger destructively destroyed the magic circle that was about to take shape.

The wings exuding rainbow light fell sadly, and Irene, whose magic was forcibly interrupted, spit out a big mouthful of blood because of the backlash.She subconsciously held the cross on her chest, her brows were tightly furrowed, and in the sudden gust of wind, her nun's robe, which was almost stained red with blood, fluttered for a while.

The more holy, the more heroic.

"Is this your limit?"

In an extremely mocking voice, Luna appeared behind Irene like a tarsal maggot. She aimed the dagger at the back of Irene's heart, and said in a cold voice: "It's only to this extent, but it's not enough." It makes me feel a little boring... Don't worry, I will let you die without pain!"

After all, she handed out the dagger expressionlessly.

At this moment, due to the successive severe injuries, Erin's severe pain has already exceeded the threshold of what she can bear.Under Luna's rapid offensive, she didn't even have time to heal herself.Moreover, due to the temporary suspension of the Crimson Moon Ceremony, she was no longer able to gain power from those dead souls, and she completely lost the ability to resist in the face of Luna's fatal blow.

However, even at this time, Erin still had her last hope in her heart. She closed her eyes and said softly to the people behind her: "Even so, I still miss our days as companions."

After Eileen finished speaking, she felt a bone-chilling cold piercing her back.

Accompanied by the sudden burst of strange blood, that holy figure withered and fell.

Chapter 69 Waiting for redemption in the fire?

Qingyue calendar [-] years, the beginning of the new year.

In Xili, the capital of France, the coldest season has passed. After clearing the snow from the streets, there are gradually more pedestrians on the streets.The dignitaries wore mink fur coats to visit relatives and friends whom they had not seen for many days; in the dilapidated slum areas, people also opened the doors and windows that had been closed for nearly a month, and came to the streets in search of jobs that could make a living.

But at the main entrance of the Patriarch Church, there was a strange fanatical atmosphere.

Those people with righteous indignation on their faces picked up stones on the ground, or eggs and fruits in baskets, and threw them to the stake in the center of the square.Their eyes were burning with anger, and they cursed the most ugly words, as if they had some deep hatred with the person on the stake.Under the leadership of a certain young man, their lines gradually merged into the simplest sentence——

"Burn her to death!"

Detained on the stake was a petite figure in a black robe. The wide black robe was covered with mud and filth, and barely blocked the stones and eggs that were thrown.Judging from the pale golden hair hanging down her cheeks, she seemed to be just a young girl.Near her, a row of soldiers belonging to the church were stationed. They held sharp spears and separated the prisoners from the onlookers.

Under the prisoners, haystacks have been prepared.I saw a man wearing a black priest's uniform with the emblem of the Inquisition on his chest holding a burning torch. After waiting for the bishop to finish his prayer and nod his head, he handed the torch to the executioner. .

In the louder shouts of "burn her to death", the executioner walked to the edge of the fire rack and threw the torch onto the haystack, and the flames spread rapidly amidst the heart-pounding sound of "squeaky" open.

At the same time, the onlookers cheered enthusiastically.

"Great, the wicked witch is finally going to be burned to death!"

"It must be because of her black magic that caused the bridge to collapse."

"Damn witch, she tried to get close to my son in vain before. Thinking about it is really terrible. I hope my son has not been planted by her with any terrible curse."

Amidst the noisy voices, the so-called witch girl, Luna Desmuela raised her head in confusion. Until then, she felt the burning sensation rising from the bottom of her feet. Scanning around, she found that everyone was looking at her. She saw the fanatical crowd, the soldiers waiting in battle, and... the middle-aged man in black priest uniform, looking expressionlessly at this side.

The moment Luna met his gaze, Luna's body trembled.

She finally remembered.

This time, she did not escape the pursuit of the Inquisition.

The reason was that she was penniless, and in order to get food money, she found a temporary job in Xicheng District.It was a construction team building bridges. After she concealed her appearance a little, she became a temporary porter in the team.However, due to the person in charge's cutting corners, the bridge collapsed only halfway through construction.At this time, her real gender happened to be discovered by a worker and reported to the person in charge.

So, the person in charge who was eager to get rid of the crime had an idea, and found a witch who was doing bad things as an excuse, and secretly reported her as a scapegoat.He didn't know if Luna was a witch, but he only knew that this little "boy" was surprisingly strong, which saved him a lot of expenses for hiring temporary workers.Of course, at such a juncture, it would be best if he only needs someone to take the blame for him.

Fortunately, this kid who disguised herself as a man seemed to be really a witch, and she was already on the statistical list of the Holy See.The Holy See even dispatched high-ranking priests from the Inquisition Institute to find a gap where the target was sleeping and capture her in one fell swoop.Therefore, after the witch was successfully captured, the person in charge's previous actions of cutting corners to fill his own pockets were also concealed, and instead won praise from the Holy See for assisting in the capture operation.

As for Luna, who was judged to be a witch, she was detained in the square without trial, and was brought to these fanatical believers for execution.

Recalling the whole story, Luna still hasn't recovered from her confusion.

Could it be... Am I going to be burned to death?

Luna was thinking with some confusion. She gradually smelled the choking smell of burning sackcloth in her nostrils. She knew that the flames were rapidly rising from the bottom of her feet, and the burning pain on her skin began to become more intense. This made her frown, and cast a look of help to the onlookers—but what responded to her were all hateful glances that wanted to eat the flesh alive.

Why do these humans hate me so much?Luna thought sadly.
