This is also the vision that all the Deep Mages hope for.

Only by standing outside the real world can they be qualified to monitor those alien lives and creatures from other dimensions, and recast the glory of the mages in the Golden Age.

Instead of being forced to set up an organization like the Night Hunters and engage in passive defense as is the case now.

"No wonder Miss Claire asked me to keep this secret."

"It turns out that the master she knew didn't want to be noticed by the world."

Amos's apprentice came in with a pile of materials in his hands.

"Teacher, aren't we going to start mixing the potion yet?"

Amos sighed.

He sat down on the chair tremblingly and said slowly:

“Return all the materials and instruments.”

"We have no use for them."

Under the puzzled gaze of his apprentice, Master Youshen muttered to himself.

"Maybe I should find another mentor."

Chapter 35 Poison

monastery.

Vera was standing in front of the statue of Themilas, the goddess of the dark moon.

She was wearing a nun's uniform, with her hands clasped on her chest, her beautiful eyes lowered, praying devoutly.

But she wasn't praying for faith.

Pray for someone's safety.

At this moment, time stopped.

Demons from the outer realms have returned from the deep underworld.

It spoke in an ethereal and majestic voice:

"The thread of death that entangles Faro has been reduced."

"That is to say, you did successfully save his life once."

The praying girl heard the news.

Her tightly furrowed brows finally relaxed and she let out a long sigh of relief.

The pitiful, delicate and sad face also revealed a faint smile.

She had been worrying whether Farrow's destined death could be avoided with her help.

Now that I heard that he was fine, the heavy weight in my heart finally fell.

"According to the contract, I helped you save him once."

"You should accept some of the transformation caused by the Deep Pollution."

After saying that, the devil reached out and touched her forehead.

Vera did not dodge or avoid, allowing the darkness to corrode her body.

Soon, she felt sharp pains in all her muscles, as if her soul was being burned. The immense pain made her face turn pale. She subconsciously bit her thin lips, and cold sweat broke out on her cheeks.

About ten minutes later, part of the contract was completed.

Vera was exhausted, and her body, which had been normal just now, became weak.

She could feel the deep power in her body expanding.

This means that she can release profound magic more freely.

It is also a sign that she is gradually becoming a witch.

Until finally, her soul will be annihilated because of carrying too much pollution.

The demons from outside the world will take over this body and become its new master.

The devil was silent.

But looking at Vera's expression, it still spoke:

"Of all the humans I've ever met, you're definitely the weirdest one."

"All the people I've come into contact with made wishes for themselves without exception. Even if they knew it wouldn't end well, at least they would have a happy time."

"But look at you."

As it spoke, it pointed to the small puddle on the ground where Vera's cold sweat had gathered.

"I was the one who proposed this contract, and I don't feel any self-blame or regret about it."

"But you seem to have no remorse at all, and that's beyond my comprehension."

Vera said lightly:

"I'm just repaying him."

"If he hadn't pulled me out of prison, I might have died on the operating table of the Deep Mages."

The demon shook his head and retorted:

"He has rescued you. You could have lived a peaceful life, but you still embarked on the path of self-destruction."

"But this is a good thing for me. I like your container very much."

Vera smiled faintly and said:

"Don't you demons have feelings? Don't you have someone you can devote your whole life to?"

The devil was stunned, as if the words had hit the nail on the head.

"Yes, but that's not what I meant."

"I'm asking again, is your original intention really just 'for him'?"

Vera's expression changed slightly and she became a little angry.

"What do you mean?"

In Vera's view, the devil's words were undoubtedly a blasphemy to her feelings for Faro.

I am willing to sacrifice my life to help Faro change his inevitable death. Isn't this for him?

The devil's emotionless voice came again:

“It’s easy for humans to confuse selfishness with giving.”

"Do you really want him to survive and it doesn't matter if you die?"

"You are just sacrificing yourself and forcing others to accept your dedication."

Vera's eyebrows raised.

"That's not the case! No matter what, I really want him to live..."

"And are you able to make peace with the fact that he knows nothing of your sacrifice?"

Vera was about to retort, but was stopped by the devil's words.

She opened her mouth, wanting to speak but no sound came out.

Yes, can she accept it herself?

"You silently sacrificed your life in exchange for his life. Have you ever thought that he won't give you anything in return?"

At this moment, Vera had completely lost her previous momentum and looked stunned, as if she was shocked by the devil's words.

After a long while, he whispered: "I don't care..."

The devil smiled.

It didn't understand why a smart girl like Vera would be so stupid at this moment.

"He won't know it was you who saved him."

"He's taking the safety that was bought with your life, and he doesn't even know it."

"He doesn't thank you."

The demon whispered in her ear.

"He is young, handsome, powerful, and has a bright future. He will definitely have no shortage of suitors."

"That day, you just saw him and Celia being intimate, and you couldn't help but ask me to wake him up."

"What if one day he falls in love with another girl?"

"You gave silently, but in the end it helped him to be with someone else. Even so, do you not care?"

Vera's body trembled.

Like the demon said, she had never thought of this.

Just taking it for granted that Faro would be nice to me, that's enough

But she is simply making things easier for others!

It was she who sacrificed her life to ensure Faro's safety.

So the person Faro loves...why can't it be himself?

"Your true wish is not just for Faro to survive."

"You want to live with him, and you want him to fall in love with you."

The demon said and sighed.

"You made the wrong wish."

Vera lowered her head and remained silent, not knowing whether she agreed with this statement.

"If you want something, don't give it up, or you'll have no place to cry."

The devil seemed to feel that it was too cruel for him to say all this.

So the tone slowed down a little.

"You traded your life for his. Using my logic as a demon, the result is obvious."

"You are the most qualified to decide who he should love in this life."

"He's yours, isn't he?"

What the demon doesn't know is.

At this moment, Vera's psychological defenses had been shattered by this cold reality, as if her heart was burning with poisonous fire.

But to Vera, her own voice seemed like an antidote.

......right.

I saved Farlow's life.

I should be entitled to have him do something for me.

And I just want Faro to love me...I deserve it.

Vera's eyes gradually lost their luster.

She thought of the gentle smile on Faro's face when he rescued her that day in the dark prison.

I love Faro too...

Who could help Faro better than himself?

I can help Farlow with everything…no one else is needed.

All I need is Farrow...

same.

All Faro needs is me.
