Princess' personal painter

Erin thought with some heartache.

She was thinking about Sisyana in a daze, but neglected to be vigilant about her surroundings.Irene felt that Luna on the side suddenly grasped her hand, and took a few steps backwards abruptly.

The half strand of hair that had been shaved off was frozen in the eyes for a moment, and then the sound of breaking through the air that came long ago brought Irene back to her senses.She raised her gaze and stared at the figure exuding a strong decaying aura in front of her.Then, Erin was surprised to find that she knew the person in front of her——

Rogge Wolfred, the leader of the Imperial Knights and one of the Four Knights of the Throne, was known as the Grand Knight closest to the holy rank in Wakabayashi. He once fought side by side with Irene in the battle against the orcs.Irene still clearly remembered that it was he who led a group of elite knights to break the orc line.

But right now, the sharp blade in the hand of this former comrade-in-arms was pointing at him mercilessly.

More importantly, Roger Wolfred's pupils were shining with a red light that yearned for violence and killing.There is no doubt that at this time he has become a death knight.

Chapter 88 Mother-in-law

"Hold me tight!"

"Ah."

After discovering the intruder, the horns of the undead became sharper.Countless undead emerged from the deep dense forest and surrounded the two, with powerful death knights like Roger Wolfred chasing after them, the situation of Irene and Luna suddenly became very critical.

In order to escape the pursuit of the undead, Luna hugged Irene, who was unable to move on her back with one hand, and held a dagger in the other hand, crushing the skeletons trying to block them one by one, and galloped through the dense forest.

As for Irene, she took out her staff and used holy light to expel the undead who tried to approach from other directions.

In this way, compared to the bulky undead, the two evacuated faster.Not long after, they got a distance away from the undead, only the previous death knight Rogge was still chasing after them not far away, and it seemed that they didn't intend to just let them go.

It should be quite a distance away from the dark city of Iris, and only the death knight is left among the undead who are still chasing in perception. Irene thought for a while, and then said: "Bypassing the huge tree in front, we will Stop and fight back. Luna-chan, quick battle."

"No problem." Luna replied.

As a result, Irene entered a state of meditation, secretly accumulating momentum.But at this moment, a misty female voice suddenly sounded in his mind——

"Please come to the giant tree..."

The gentle and sad tone rang directly in his mind.

Irene was stunned for a moment, her gaze stayed on the giant tree in front of her for a few seconds, but she could only notice the huge tree trunk with a height of tens of meters and the intertwined branches occupying a huge area... Such a giant tree is in the It is not uncommon in the forest, generally speaking, it will become the habitat of some kind of powerful monster. Besides, Irene has not found any clues around the giant tree.

Clearly noticing Erin's hesitation, the ethereal female voice said again——

"Please, please come to the giant tree and meet me, it's safe here..."

The gentle tone flowed into her heart like a clear spring, and for some reason Irene felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity from it.With a slight movement in her mind, she made a decision: "Luna, go to the left, go to the giant tree."

"it is good!"

Although I don't know why Irene suddenly changed her mind, Luna has absolute trust in her, and immediately adjusted her direction and ran towards the giant tree.

"Thank you, please come inside the 'door'."

When it was about to reach the bottom of the giant tree, a shimmering 'door' emerged from the wrinkled torso of the giant tree.Luna put Erin on her back, turned her head to look at this unusual scene, and asked doubtfully, "Are we going in?"

Irene released her perception, and after a little exploration, she didn't find any dangerous aura. It was just a channel made of magic, so she nodded: "Hmm."

So, the two held each other's hands and walked into the door ahead.

The brilliant lights and shadows crossed in front of my eyes for a moment, and when I saw the scene inside the door, Irene couldn't help but widen her eyes in amazement—this is a huge hall with a radius of about ten meters, with an elegant and noble atmosphere. The layout, there is a long table in the middle of the hall, and there are three stools on the left and right... If Irene's memory is correct, this should be the layout of a hall in the depths of Elise's winter palace.

Could it be that the door we just passed through brought us back to the dark city of Ellis?

Immediately afterwards, a strange breeze blew across her cheeks, and Irene immediately sensed the aura of undead in the air, and she suddenly became vigilant, and quietly clenched the staff in her hand.

"Miss Pastor, thank you for trusting me."

Accompanied by an ethereal female voice, a figure walked over from the front and sighed in a melancholy tone: "It's been a long, long time, and I haven't talked to a living person..."

The overly ethereal timbre, the oppressive aura that kept approaching, and the looming translucent figure made Irene confirm that the other party was the "Wraith" recorded in the church classics. Even though the other party did not show hostility, she still did well. Prepared for the battle——however, when the figure of the wraith woman gradually became clear, and when Irene saw her face clearly, she couldn't help but stand completely in place.

Under the wavy hair, there is an indescribably beautiful face like a peerless pearl, and there are hardly any flaws on the facial features like a work of art.And her body has a certain lingering melancholy temperament, which makes people feel a sense of pity.

She is a beauty that is not inferior to the elf queen, Ramir.

More importantly, she has a pair of blue sea-like eyes, and her face is clearly similar to Sisyana and her sister Anita.

Staring in a daze at the other person's face, which is enough to overwhelm a country and a city, Irene naturally thought of a certain woman who was loved by Ruobayashi people.Although the appearance and temperament are very consistent, but if I remember correctly, Xi Ya's mother concubine Corneli Bella should have passed away ten years ago...

But the woman's next statement confirmed Irene's thoughts.

"My name is Cornelie Bella Casdeil, the only daughter of the Earl of the Franz Red River, and the wife of King Andrey Theresia of Jolin... I am doing a long, long After the dream, I realized that I woke up, but became an existence without a body..." Connelly Bella stated her situation in a melancholy tone, looked up at Irene, and begged, "Both Strong man, you are the only ones I have ever seen who can escape from the pursuit of the death knight, can you grant me a request?"

It really is Qian Ya's mother and concubine... But, she actually appeared here as a wraith, and why she can still maintain her sanity as a human being after becoming a wraith... And, do you want to tell Qian the news? Ya...she has always missed her mother very, very much...

All kinds of thoughts rushed through her mind, and Irene's mood was complicated and inexplicable for a while.

Noticing that the girl wearing a nun's uniform in front of her was looking at her so firmly, Cornelia Bella said hesitantly: "Miss Priest, you have an unbelievably friendly aura about you. It may be possible to ask such a question all of a sudden. A little presumptuous... Do we know each other?"

Actually, it was the first time we met, but...we have already become very close to your daughter.Um, even though it was in front of my mother-in-law, it's better not to talk about it, right?I only heard Irene whispering: "I was entrusted by Xi Ya to come to this world to find her father and brother."

Cornelia Bella was taken aback for a moment, and then showed a surprised expression: "It's great that you know my little daughter, please tell me how she is doing now..."

Chapter 89 Cornelia Bella's Sorrow

"That's it, he's really a kid with his own mind."

After listening to Erin's story, Cornelia Bella sighed: "I heard you said that Xi Ya has grown into a great beauty. It's a pity that I couldn't watch her grow up with my own eyes."

In the face of this mother-in-law, Irene only roughly talked about her resignation from Anluer and the current situation of cleaning up Wakabayashi's domestic chaos, but did not mention Wakabayashi's situation on the verge of civil war. Therefore, Cornelia Bella did not Knowing that Sisyana was in a hostile situation with her two older sisters, she looked at Irene with pleading eyes: "It's a proud daughter to have excellent people like you help me by my side. .Can you tell me about Siya again...Miss Irene, please!"

Meeting Corneli Bella's expectant sight, Irene thought for a while, then said softly: "I was determined to follow her because I was saved by her in Insterburg..."

As she spoke, Erin flicked her fingers in the air, and a demure and elegant girl emerged in the air, with the same blue hair and blue eyes as Cornelia Bella, and the light and confident smile hanging from the corner of her mouth. This is the beautiful image of Sisyana, who is praised by the world, which is not inferior to her mother and concubine.

Cornelia Bella looked distractedly at the phantom of her daughter, and quietly listened to Eileen's story about how she saved hundreds of thousands of people in Insterburg, and how she helped Nicky Aldridge in Silesia. As for the battle on the battlefield, when she heard about the thrills, she unconsciously showed worry, and when she heard that Sisyana had finally won, she would also show joy and excitement.Of course, Irene also told a lot about Sisyana's trivial daily life, that is, about Sisyana's hobbies, her favorite food and her favorite style of dressing, her usually conservative but sometimes whim-like Temperament... In order to satisfy Cornelia Bella as much as possible, every time Irene talked about it, she would copy Sisyana's demure and elegant or heroic, or frowning and distressed and coquettish and shy All kinds of images are vividly displayed.And Cornelia Bella, who was listening to this, was like all mothers in the world, as long as it was about her daughter, she would never get bored... Time flowed, and several hours passed without knowing it.

After Erin told almost all the things that can be said, the magic power that can be mobilized so far is almost exhausted.Staring blankly at her daughter's image disappearing from view, it took Corneli Bella a long time to come back to her senses, noticing Irene's tired appearance, she hurriedly said gratefully: "Thank you... for being able to satisfy my impolite request , thank you so much..."

As she spoke, tears welled up in Corneli Bella's eyes—if she wasn't in a spiritual state at this time, she must have shed tears of joy and emotion.

"This is what I should do." Irene said softly, and after thinking for a while, she asked aloud, "About Elise City that fell into this world...does the princess know anything?"

Cornelia Bella showed a sad expression, shook her head and said, "I just woke up not long ago, and I don't know how long it's been here... Maybe about three months... Except for one Other than that, I don't even know why I woke up..."

"What's the matter?" Erin asked.

Cornelia Bella hesitated a little, but she still whispered: "My husband and King Andrea of ​​Ruolin is the ruler of that dark city. However, after he became a dead soul, he seemed to be I completely lost my mind, only the idea of ​​'conquering the world' remained, and I couldn't communicate with him at all... Now, I know that he has accumulated enough troops, and he should lead the army to start a war soon."

Irene was startled, and exchanged glances with Luna next to her.

If this undead army of nearly a million people walks out of the dark area and wages war against the demons in the north, it will definitely be a huge disaster for this world.Even though demons and humans belonged to the category of deadly enemies from a standpoint, Irene still couldn't sit back and watch so many lives disappear in the undead catastrophe.

"Your Highness, please leave with us...I will take you to see your daughter."

Cornelia Bella shook her head: "I tried it, and I can't leave that black city too far... This feeling is very strange, as if my soul is bound by something over there." After a pause, Cornelia Bella said bitterly: "I am already a dead person. If I didn't want to stop my husband, I should ask Miss Irene to purify me... The world that belongs to death is like this. It's cold and empty, if I'm left alone for a while, maybe I'll become a real wraith..."

Irene promised: "I will definitely come back as soon as possible to visit Her Royal Highness the Princess!"

"Compared to this, I hope that my soul can ascend to heaven, but if I become like this, I should be ineligible?" Cornelia Bella sighed, "Please don't let my soul go to heaven when we meet." Tell others, especially our sons and daughters, they will definitely be sad for me... next time we meet, I hope Miss Erin can cleanse me with holy light, can you? Just let me be here for the last Watch for a while, and repent for the mistakes you made in the past in solitude..."

Irene couldn't help asking: "Past mistakes?"

"That might be... the biggest mistake I've ever made in my life." Cornelia Bella showed confusion in her eyes, but she didn't explain, but said in a low voice: "Finally, I still have A presumptuous request... Enolie, she seems to be buried in this dark world too, if Miss Irene sees her tomb, please bury this sachet beside the tombstone..."

As she spoke, Cornelia Bella handed a light blue sachet made of silk to Irene's hand, showing a look of reminiscence: "My mother passed away because of my dystocia. It is said that I grabbed her waist at that time. The sachet on it is crying. For this reason, this sachet has been with me all my life and I have never taken it off... Enolie also said that she likes this fragrance very much. I don’t know if this can bring her I'm a little bit happier..."

After walking out of the passage and leaving this hidden palace, Irene stood there in a daze, looking at the sachet with a special meaning in her hand, and didn't come back to her senses for a long time.Seeing this, Luna couldn't help asking: "Ailin sauce, why do you show such a sad expression?"

"Because... I suddenly remembered that Enolly is the name of Jacqueline's mother."

Meeting Luna's concerned eyes, Irene said softly: "Also, the princess's painful and regretful expression at the end... I remember very clearly that there was a person who showed me almost the same expression..."

"That's it." Luna nodded and didn't ask further.

However, I will not make the same mistake again... definitely not!

Bracing herself up and taking a deep breath, Irene held the hand of the girl beside her, and in this gloomy and gloomy forest, she took steps towards the still indescribable future.

Chapter 90 The Demon God's Daughter

Behind the purple sky in the dark world, the center of chaotic consciousness.

The huge eyes like a Kunpeng slowly opened, and began to overlook the world.

In his field of vision, the dark world is like a balloon full of fluorescent lights. Inside this balloon, there are 3000 million demon population and various creatures.These creatures who believed in the law of the strong cannibalizing the weak had imprints that belonged to him deep in their souls, which was the proof of being born in this world and blessed by him.Occasionally, he will select a few potential creatures, differentiate his own seeds of consciousness, and bestow power and wisdom on the selected creatures—of course, while these creatures gradually become stronger with the seeds he bestows, they will also gradually become stronger. Assimilated by the seed, he became his food and the bearer of the purest power of evil.

As the ruler of the dark world, while using his powerful power to prevent the world from continuing to decline, he is also constantly replenishing himself in this way.

Once upon a time, this gloomy world also had an open sky and a vast land. However, in the war between Him and Jelisha thousands of years ago, the despicable and shameless Jelisha violated the agreement not to destroy the world, and the strongest man among mankind They shot together and forcibly shot down the world where the demons lived.After that, even if the dark world survived by chance, its size has shrunk to less than one percent of its original size, and it is on the verge of extinction.

As for the world in which the various races dominated by human beings live, after the balance of the twin worlds that protect each other is broken, it will begin to decline sooner or later. This is the "original sin" that Jelisha and human beings will have to pay for sooner or later— Unfortunately, that day is still very far away.

Even as a god, he can only wait quietly in endless time.

Over the years, due to the fact that the decline has been getting worse year by year, more and more areas in the southern unstable dark area have begun to fall into the bottomless abyss, and he has to adopt a more aggressive method than before to obtain Power, that is to expand the scope of hunting and spread more "seeds".At the same time, because the huge empire on the other side of the human world has collapsed, even Jelisha can hardly stop the four wars and conquests. He also began to respond to the requests of some human beings, allowing them to become "seed" carriers.

Faint fluorescent lights dormant in every corner of the world. Although most of the seeds planted will die halfway, some of them will definitely bloom elegant sinful flowers, exuding a seductive fragrance, that pure and flawless His sins are also His favorite food.

However, during this period of time, the flowers that He was most looking forward to cut off contact one after another.

Even as the ruler and manager of the world, he cannot monitor this huge world all the time, so he did not notice what happened, nor did he know the successive incidents that occurred in the capital of the kingdom of sin and the kingdom of confusion What exactly does it mean... In order to maintain this broken world, most of its operating and thinking systems are focused on resisting decline and maintaining the ecology of the natural world.

He couldn't help but think of the human being who came to challenge him four years ago. It was the first time he saw a human being so strong that it could threaten the power of the dark world... He, who has gained an infinite lifespan, if he Given a certain amount of time to grow, maybe you can really reach the level of being on par with God.

However, whether it's the lost seeds, or the internal disputes of the demon clan as the dependents, or the occasional powerful individuals... In his field of vision, these are all trivial matters.Because, since half a year ago, he has felt a more imminent crisis that can almost destroy the entire world.

In the past six months, in order to find out the source of that threat, the tentacles of consciousness repeatedly explored in every corner of the world.And now, he finally discovered the huge plague-like army that had quietly gathered in the dark area of ​​the south. Even though he was as powerful as him, he suddenly felt something similar to fear.

Gods also feel... frightened?

No, he quickly deleted this useless emotional module, and turned to look at this matter from a purely rational perspective-it stands to reason that even if nearly a million lives were sacrificed, those low-level It is impossible for people to gain such a powerful force, let alone pose a threat to the world he rules.In other words, there are other powerful beings pushing this matter?

Is it mean and shameless Jelisha?

When thinking of the name of the old enemy, the central operating system was in a state of disorder, which made him have to allocate more energy to suppress this same redundant emotional module.Not long after, he came to the conclusion in his thinking that what Jelisha needs is the faith of living people, and it is absolutely impossible to touch that plague... So, after eliminating one enemy, another, older opponent emerged.

The earliest aborigines in the twin worlds are the sealed ancient gods.

The ancient gods themselves were born in the void, and did not need living believers to replenish their strength. On the contrary, when a world was destroyed, they could instead capture the energy that escaped into the void.They are the craziest existences who don't care about the survival of the world, and it is not surprising that they use undead as followers.

If this world is really destroyed, the ancient gods who have gained more powerful power will definitely attack Jelisha.Hahaha, Jelisha, you shot down this world with your shameless actions back then, causing some ancient gods to escape from the seal... The time for the crimes you committed back then has finally come to this moment of repayment!

Crazy thoughts galloped through the huge system for a while before being captured and sealed by the control center.He has calmed down, thinking about the way to deal with the threat... So naturally, his thinking circuit was placed on the "holy body" enshrined in the temple——

A human girl with deep black hair and a classical beauty.
