Dark Fairy Tale: Will their desires be fulfilled?

Allen was stunned for a moment. The maid of the stinky sister? The daughter of Sister Aifu who was lingering with her father in the library?

He could never have imagined that Ellie, who was in charge of contacting the Duke of the Northern Territory in the imperial capital, would be hunted down by the church. It was too late to think about it, and Allen turned around and ran towards Ellie's location.

On the other side, outside the imperial capital, a petite figure swiftly shuttled between the trees. Judging from the extremely pale face, the situation was not good.

Ellie frowned her beautiful eyebrows and used a healing spell to heal the wound on her abdomen while being alert to a group of hyenas behind her.

In the imperial capital, she followed the clues left by members of her family branch and found a fragment of the ancestor's royal soul. Now she must bring this information back to the family.

For tens of thousands of years, there has been a legend circulating in the Haimes family that the day when all the fragments of the king's soul are found will be the moment when the ancestor returns to the world from the eternal darkness. At that time, the ancestor will lead the tribe to declare war on the seven major churches and take back everything that belongs to them. They will no longer have to hide in the shadow of the world forever, will no longer bear the family's mission, and can live freely on this land.

There is no more slaughter and betrayal, it is a kingdom of eternal light.

During this period, countless tribesmen have sacrificed their lives for this. Now that we have finally found a piece of the king's soul, how can we stop here?

She would follow Miss Elstin for her entire life until she ascended the throne of the Duke of the North.

You must not die here!

"You remnant of the witch, you have no way to escape! Why don't you quickly confess your heavy sins to us!"

A powerful voice came from behind, undoubtedly containing spiritual power, which made the eardrums roar.

Ellie endured the severe pain from her wound and barely dodged an energy ball. She didn't dare to look back, but just ran forward desperately.

The man in charge of the pursuit smiled disdainfully and turned to one of his men and asked, "Have the other teams arrived at the designated location?"

The subordinate smiled flatteringly and said, "Please rest assured, sir. This woman can't escape. Our people have surrounded the entire forest. She has no way to escape. She has no choice but to surrender!"

The leading man, however, was not proud. He said with a serious look on his face, "If the other teams get there first, then we won't get the credit! Pass on my order, everyone chase at full speed!"

Then the men behind him looked at each other and said cautiously, "Sir, didn't you order us to capture her alive? We didn't dare to use fatal attack spells, but now we can't catch her with just a few weak spells."

The leading man listened to his men's words and fell into deep thought. The value of the dead witch remnants was far less than that of the living witch remnants. For hundreds of years, the church had not been able to capture a witch remnant alive.

All of these remnants of the witches are ready to die. Once they find that they are doomed, they will decisively commit suicide by taking poison. The poison they take can even melt their bodies.

The leading man seemed to have made up his mind and said, "If we can capture her alive, we will. If we can't, we can't let other teams take advantage of us. We should kill her before she takes the poison. This way, we can at least get her body."

Everyone followed the order, and in an instant a flash of light appeared, and various powerful offensive spells were thrown one by one.

Ai Li had been seriously injured during her escape. Facing such an intensive attack, she gradually could not hold on. She was hit in the shoulder by an arrow of light transformed from spiritual power, and she staggered and fell to the ground.

Chapter 120: First Display of Strength

The hyenas followed the scent of blood and bombarded the area with spells of all kinds. The originally quiet forest became turbulent and the frightened birds fled into the sky like black mist.

Ellie covered the bloody wound on her shoulder and gasped for breath, cold sweat streaming down her extremely pale face. Even though she was almost exhausted, she still forced herself to run forward.

However, the hyenas behind her did not give her any chance to breathe. The leading man saw that the remaining witches were already shaky and could not help but become extremely happy.

As long as he could capture the girl alive, perhaps he could become a cardinal. Then he wouldn't have to work so hard doing dirty things for the church like he does now, but could gain a lofty status and enjoy women and wealth.

So he exploded all the spiritual power in his body and led several of his men to sprint forward. For a moment, colorful energy balls poured out from their hands, destroying thick trees along the way and raising a cloud of dust.

At this time, the frightened birds let out shrill cries and circled above the crowd.

A fist-sized red energy ball hit Ellie's slender back accurately, and her body staggered forward unwillingly and fell to the ground again.

A trace of blood flowed from the corner of her mouth. She tried her best to get up, but she couldn't muster any strength at all. Like a lamb to be slaughtered, she could only wriggle her body and make a final struggle.

Her beautiful eyes naturally revealed defiance and hesitation. The important information had not yet been delivered to Miss Elstin, and her life was about to disappear at this moment.

The noisy footsteps behind her were getting closer and closer to her, and a self-deprecating smile gradually formed on the corners of her mouth. She was just the illegitimate daughter of a lowly Northern Duke. She should have been given to a nobleman as a bargaining chip in a political conspiracy to be controlled at will, but she met Miss Elstin in the Duke's mansion, which gave her dirty and poor life a new life.

She originally wanted to pledge her allegiance to Miss Elstin with her body and soul. If everything went well, the information from the fragments of the King's Soul could help Miss Elstin secure her position as the Duke's heir.

This is why she tried her best to bring this information back, but she didn't expect that the enemy was much more difficult than she imagined.

Being captured by the enemy as a member of the Haines family was an extremely humiliating thing. Feeling that she was in a desperate situation with no way to escape, Ellie slowly took out a small black pill from her arms, wanting to end her life, in order to preserve the family secret and avoid bringing shame to Elstin's reputation.

This was the only thing she could do as the eldest lady's maid at the moment.

However, seeing that Ellie was about to swallow the poison, the leading man was horrified and shouted angrily: "Stop her!"

A more violent energy ball came at her, and in the blink of an eye it appeared in front of Ellie. With a few roars, Ellie's slender body was blown several meters away like a leaf in the wind.

Ellie struggled to look up and stared at the man walking towards her.

"With a face like yours and a body like yours, why don't you just be a lady? I can treat you gently." The leading man laughed perversely. He had already thought of ten thousand wonderful punishments to interrogate this beauty.

However, when he saw the disdain, coldness, and ruthless mockery contained in those beautiful eyes, the man's expression instantly became ferocious, and he said viciously:

"You remnants of witches are only fit to squat under my crotch and lick my iron pestle!"

As he said that, he was about to rush forward and grab Ellie's neck.

The next moment, the air was suddenly dominated by an icy chill, and the night sky seemed to wriggle with life, then slowly condensed into a human shape.

His whole body was wrapped in darkness, with a black windbreaker and black hair. His face looked down at everyone like an ice sculpture. His black pupils were so indifferent that it made people feel scared.

The leading man swallowed and, out of instinct, took a few steps back to get away from the dangerous beast.

The remaining few men were already frightened by the figure in front of them. When they saw their boss showing such a fearful expression, they were immediately filled with extreme fear and their whole bodies were shaking.

Ellie was the only one present who recognized Allen. Her pale face showed surprise at first, then joy. She could never have imagined that when she was in desperate situation, it would be the good-for-nothing son of the Duke, whom she had always sneered at, who would come to her rescue.

She suddenly felt a little worried. It had only been a few months since Young Master Allen awakened his bloodline talent, and the hyenas from the church in front of her were so powerful that even she was unable to resist them. Could he be their opponent?

Allen looked at the cute maid who was seriously injured. The blood flowing from her shoulders and abdomen soaked her black robe and two slender legs. There was no trace of blood on her thin lips. His eyes became even colder as he stared at the culprits on the other side.

The leading man used his spiritual power to spy on Allen's strength. After confirming that he was just a low-sequence transcendent, he regained his arrogance and said to Allen proudly:

"I didn't expect that I would lure out the witch's accomplices. Look, I'm going to catch you all! Haha! Now my position as cardinal is secure!"

Seeing their boss regain his strength, the men behind him also began to take advantage of the situation, looking at Allen and Ellie with sinister looks.

Looking at the hyenas eager to try and acting arrogantly, Allen snorted coldly and murmured, "Can I kill them?"

"As you wish." Inoda responded coldly. No matter what, she was the founder of the Haines family. Even though the girl in front of her was just an illegitimate daughter, she was still a member of the Haines family. She was not broad-minded enough to watch the hyenas of the church bully the people at will.

Allen witnessed the hypocrisy and cruelty of the church. His family had been hiding in the shadow of the world for more than 20,000 years since the fall of the Witch Era. Apart from secretly accumulating strength to fight against the seven major churches, they had never oppressed their people in the territory they ruled. On the contrary, due to the good governance of successive Northern Dukes, they were deeply loved by their people.

Even so, they are not tolerated by the seven major churches. Once their identities as the remnants of the witches are discovered, they will be besieged by them.

In the face of tyranny, kindness becomes a sin.

Allen couldn't help but laugh at himself. Looking at the church hyenas rushing over, Allen smiled evilly, slowly raised his right hand, lowered his eyes, and whispered softly:

"Tide of Darkness!"

In an instant, a black mist spread out from around him, drowning everything with supreme will. Even the sound disappeared without a trace, and the space became dead silent.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the church hyenas turned around and ran, but the black fog was like an endless tide that dragged them in in an instant. Their howls of fear were their last words before death.

Watching the enemy's soul being scattered in an instant, Allen clenched his right hand that had been casting the spell, as if he was still savoring the killing. The indifference and cruelty revealed in that moment made Ellie startled.

He suddenly turned around and smiled at the shocked Ai Li: "If you were a step later, you would have been captured. So, how are you going to thank me?"

Chapter 121 Repay in the way you like

"Just do one thing for me, and then you can do whatever you want to me."

As she spoke, a hint of shyness appeared on Ellie's pale face. She took out an ancient ring from her arms and handed it to Allen.

"What is this?" Allen stroked the ring in his hand. Even after injecting spiritual power into it, he didn't notice anything special about it.

"There is no time to explain now! Please hand this ring to Miss Elstin! The nearby enemies will be here soon! Please leave me alone!"

Before she could finish her words, Ellie's physical strength had reached its limit and she fell asleep.

"You're quite stubborn." Allen smiled helplessly. He picked up Ellie and realized how badly she was injured. The blood had already soaked her entire back. Her breathing became extremely weak and she looked like she was dying.

The internal organs of her body were severely damaged. It was a miracle that she could hold on until now with such serious injuries. Even if she was treated with a healing spell at this moment, it would be difficult to save her. If she continued like this, she would definitely die.

Besides, Allen was not good at healing spells. When he was thinking hard about countermeasures, the voice of the ancestor came in his mind: "Find a safe place, and then use a trace of the king's soul in my body to heal her wounds."

Allen was extremely happy after hearing this, so he traveled through the night again, carrying Ellie all the way to an open area, and then built a defensive barrier.

A circle with a radius of ten meters enveloped the two people, completely isolating them from the outside world.

Then, he gently placed Ellie on the grass and closed his eyes to feel the divinity of the First Ancestor.

Inoda had already prepared to cast divine magic in the soul world. She took over Allen's body in the next second. Countless mysterious black marks covered Allen's body. The complex marks formed even distorted the space within the barrier for a time.

A gorgeous and mysterious golden hexagram seal then appeared in Allen's eyes, and the bright light released enveloped Ellie's delicate body. The wounds on her shoulders and abdomen were repairing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and her pale face gradually showed a hint of blood color.

Soon, the mysterious light completely healed Ellie's injuries, but because she had consumed a lot of mental energy before, she was still in a coma.

As the golden hexagram seal in her pupils disappeared and turned back to its original black color, Inoda returned to the spiritual world again. The magic she used with the King's Soul consumed a great deal of her soul. At the same time, only in this way could she heal the dying Ellie's injuries. This respectable tribesman was willing to pay the price of his life to retrieve the fragments of the King's Soul for her.

No matter what, she couldn't just sit back and watch.

"Successor, I must rest for a while." Hearing the weak voice of the First Ancestor, Allen couldn't help but worry. He kept calling the First Ancestor, but got no response.

On the other side, the nearby punitive team was attacking Allen's location.

Not only did he hurt Ellie so badly, but he also put the First Lord into a deep sleep, so he couldn't chat and joke with him. Allen was just worrying about where to vent his anger, but he didn't expect the enemy to come to him.

He had no mercy on these church hyenas, and slaughter was their confession.

So he walked out of the barrier, concealed his breath, and ran towards the enemy quickly.

There were twenty people in total, divided into two expeditionary teams. Before they could find any trace of Allen, they were dragged into the endless black fog by the tide of darkness cast by Allen, and not even their bodies were left.

After dealing with the enemy, Allen returned to the barrier and carried Ellie back to the villa in the imperial capital.

It was dawn and Elstin was still asleep. After Allen settled Ellie down, he saw that the naughty sister had not woken up yet, so he did not disturb her and planned to explain the situation to her later.

After tossing and turning all night, Allen returned to his room and fell asleep.

When he woke up, it was already evening. He then remembered that he had not gone to college for classes during the day. Credits would be deducted. Alas, his living expenses for the next month would be reduced again.

In fact, Allen had no interest in the boring courses in the college. If it weren't for the monthly living expenses, he would have continued the fine tradition of his previous college and played truant.

On the other hand, the three major churches jointly founded this college with the sole purpose of cultivating more human resources that can be used for consumption.

The seven major churches sometimes fight each other for their own interests, and at this time they need a large number of cannon fodder to serve them.

For the purpose of training cannon fodder, they are reluctant to spend a lot of effort to share their monopoly on the promotion path. If the cannon fodder has awakened and wants to climb higher, then sorry, you have to sign a 996-year labor dispatch contract with the church first, during which you have to practice the "" work standard and serve the church with extremely low compensation.

Once you have accumulated enough contributions, the church will sign a soul contract with you, recognize you as a member of the church, and officially begin to train you.

If you are gifted and talented, you will also receive special treatment, and you can skip the 996 labor dispatch step.

Of course, this kind of "talent" is not limited to bloodline talent.

If you have a perky butt and are good at sticking it out, then there will naturally be no shortage of big figures in the church who can act as your mentor and become the noble person in your life, and "hand in hand" guide you to cross classes and become a distinguished figure in the church.

However, Allen's witch blood talent alone shocked the three deans of the academy, and they all agreed to train Allen as an exception.

Therefore, he didn't have to worry about skipping classes, let alone having his living expenses deducted. In order to please Allen, the three deans would naturally make every month's report card very beautiful and send it to the Duke's Mansion in the North.

Elstin saw that Allen did not come back all night and now he was lying in bed and sleeping until the evening. She was very curious about what he did last night.

As soon as Allen woke up, he was caught by Elstin, who had been waiting by his bed. She asked him in an irresistible cold tone:

"Stupid brother, why did you come back so late?"

Allen opened his sleepy eyes and recalled what happened last night. Then he handed over the ring that Ellie had entrusted to him and said softly, "Ellie asked me to give this to you."

"Ellie?" Elstin asked doubtfully. However, the moment she took the ring, she felt the unshakable barrier seal inside.

Then she held the ring tightly in her palm and asked with a complicated expression: "How is Ai Li now?"

Seeing the reaction of the stinky sister, Allen knew that Ai Li must have been carrying out the extremely dangerous mission under the order of the stinky sister, so he comforted her: "Don't worry, she is fine now. Fortunately, I discovered in time that she was being chased by the hyenas of the church, and I have eliminated all the enemies."

Elstin pursed her lips, then raised her eyes and said reluctantly, "Thank you."

The sound was very soft, but it sounded like thunder to Allen's ears.

What kind of wind is blowing? That cold and self-respecting little sister actually took the initiative to say thank you to me?

Allen looked at her in disbelief, and saw that she held the ring even tighter.

What is so important... Allen's curiosity was aroused, so he asked tentatively: "Is there any secret hidden in the ring that Ellie brought back?"

Elstin fell into a brief silence, her soft black hair falling on her forehead, completely covering her pearl-like eyes, and her expression became even heavier.

Then, she kept silent about the origin of the ring, and said to Allen with a sad smile:

"Don't worry. I'm not the kind of person who won't repay a favor. I will return all the favors you gave me for saving Ellie and for giving me this ring that means so much to me."

"In any way you like..."
