Anime, but the Phantom Thieves of Heart

But he has enough confidence in himself. Even if it requires paying a high price, he will definitely be the final winner!

As long as he can defeat Parker, that short-legged kid will definitely not be his opponent!

Thinking of this, the smile on 'Z''s face became even more crazy.

So crazy that he looks like he is good at playing cards.

But would Lan Ke just watch like that?

"Your Highness, could you do me and Mr. Parker a favor?"

Because her attention was always focused on the battle between 'Parker' and 'Z' above her head, 'Emelia' seemed to have forgotten that she was still lying in Lan Ke's arms. However, when she heard Lan Ke's words, she instinctively looked up at Lan Ke.

"Can I help you with… 'Father'?"

Emilia has been under Parker's protection ever since she regained consciousness.

Even this time, the reason why he followed was because Parker was worried that his home would be robbed, so he decided to bring him with him.

So when Lan Ke asked for her help, Emilia was obviously stunned.

"Of course, there are things in this world that you, Your Highness, can do!"

"Then... I do!!"

Lan Ke then told Emilia all about his plan. After hearing Lan Ke's plan, she was obviously a little surprised, because this "plan" was not complicated, and what she needed to do was not difficult.

Thinking of this, her originally worried expression became more motivated.

After taking a deep breath, Emilia hugged Lan Ke's armpits with both hands and flapped her wings, flying towards the battlefield in the sky with Lan Ke.

Seeing this scene, both 'Parker' and 'Z' were visibly stunned.

Obviously, none of them had expected Lan Ke to involve Emilia.

Although he didn't know what Lan Ke was going to do, thinking of his eliminated 'assistant', 'Z' also raised the sword in his hand, and then a dazzling light appeared on the tip of the sword.

Parker immediately erected an ice shield, but Emilia, who was entering the battlefield for the first time, was instantly hit.

She only felt as if her head was hit by someone and was in chaos, but at the moment she fell, Lan Ke raised his cane at the same time.

'Patra'

Emilia's stun debuff was instantly removed. She shook her head but quickly flapped her wings again and flew towards the battlefield.

Seeing that the 'Night Flash' didn't work, 'Z' couldn't help but grit his teeth and raised his hand again to summon a bolt of lightning to attack Lan Ke and the others.

It was obvious that he also knew that he could not hesitate any longer.

He kept telling himself that 'the person in front of me is not the witch', and only then was he able to launch the attack successfully.

However, Lan Ke's movements were equally fast. Almost at the moment when the opponent attacked, he used a "Lightning Strike" on Emilia. The originally aimed attack was instantly deviated. Although it hit Lan Ke's body, at least Emilia was not hit.

Two consecutive attacks were broken, and the distance between the two sides was shortened to a certain range.

It was obvious that although Emilia had no combat experience, her level was not low, and her flying speed far exceeded that of an average Advanced Pixie.

Lan Ke also raised his cane, and 'Z' noticed the magic circle that appeared under his feet. He dodged and escaped directly outside the 'magic circle'. However, before he could taunt Lan Ke, he heard a voice suddenly coming from behind him.

"No ordinary treasure house can stop a 'little thief' like me~"

As the words fell, 'Z' felt a sharp pain in his waist and he stared straight ahead with wide eyes.

Lan Ke, who was supposed to be held under the arm by Emilia, had disappeared at some point.

There was no need to ask who the owner of the voice behind him was.

But at this moment, there was only one question in his mind——How did the other party do it? !

It's a pity that he no longer has time to think about this problem.

Lan Ke pierced 'Z''s kidney with his cane while swinging his 'Demon Sword' with his other hand to cut off the wings behind him.

Having lost the ability to fly, the opponent fell from the sky in a spin.

"boom!!"

With a loud bang, the opponent was smashed to the ground.

Lan Ke, who had completed the "buffer" with the help of the other party, also took the opportunity to roll and escape far away.

Lan Ke looked extremely embarrassed at this moment, but he was actually not injured at all. In contrast, 'Z' looked much more embarrassed.

Not only were the wings behind him cut off, but blood was also constantly flowing from the wound on his waist. He didn't know where the golden laurel crown on his head fell during the fall.

"You damn little thief!!"

Accompanied by a roar, the opponent exploded.

That’s right, in the surprised eyes of everyone, the other party exploded into a ball of blood mist and fell to the ground.

Even Lan Ke, who had launched a sneak attack on the opponent, was stunned by the scene before him.

Was this guy 'furious' with himself?

Isn't it?

But soon, Lan Ke knew the reason.

The ground began to tremble again. Parker and Emilia, who had already landed next to Lan Ke, looked at Lan Ke almost at the same time, as if asking Lan Ke if he was the one who did this.

But before Lan Ke could shake his head, the ground began to shake more and more violently, and a large amount of blood suddenly gushed out from the ground in the distance. Then, a "giant" made of blood punched hard at the position where Lan Ke and the others were.

"Damn little thief!!"

Along with the surging blood waves, the surrounding "hellhounds" were also swept away, and countless lava pillars turned into obsidian pillars along with the rising smoke, but the dark red appearance made it even more weird.

However, compared to the other person's current appearance, it is quite normal.

The flesh monster made of blood and limbs had a large number of "faces" all over its body, except for the face. There were exactly 26 of them when you counted carefully.

The face at the top of the head is 'A'.

Until this moment, the final answer was finally revealed!!

Although it is unknown what method 'A' used, he has indeed been lurking in the bodies or minds of his descendants, influencing the decisions made by each generation, thus causing the twisted family of 'Roswaal Mezas' to grow pathologically under the nourishment of the flesh and blood of countless innocent people.

However, this monster, made from the flesh and blood of 26 generations of Roswaal Mezas, was even more terrifying than imagined. Even Parker was unwilling to take its attack.

Not to mention that it also consumed a lot of energy in order to protect Lan Ke.

"Narukami! Do you have any new moves?!"

'Parker' flashed a wave of blood and flew to Lan Ke's side, urging him on.

Lan Ke was helpless about this.

"Where did I get this new move..."

Lan Ke only has exclusive skills besides the normal 'buff', 'debuff' and 'negative status'.

The LV30 'Demon's Arrival' almost drained his MP. He had been standing on the rock pillar and could hardly move. His MP was almost drained and his consciousness was a little dazed.

The move just now, 'Dimensional Assault', is a new move obtained at LV40, and it also consumes a lot of mana.

Dimensional Assault

The name "Ramo" itself means "space", and the way he steals treasures is to cross space and take them directly from the treasury.

The effect of this move is to cross a certain space and appear directly at the destination.

That's right, this move itself isn't particularly offensive. Lan Ke's 'Kidney Shot' just now could only be considered a normal attack, but considering its effect, if we were to describe it in terms of the game, it would probably be...

"While teleporting, the next attack ignores the opponent's dodge and some defense, and the attack has a high probability of causing a critical hit, and the critical hit damage is increased."

This move was extremely terrifying, and even impossible to defend against. One had to rely purely on intuition to defend against it, but the problem was that this move was useless against the gigantic flesh and blood monster in front of him that was over ten meters tall!

He glanced at his 'cane' and saw that it was just like using a toothpick to poke a jar.

Moreover, this move almost used up the little 'MP recovery potion' that Lan Ke had left. Now his MP was at an extremely dangerous level. Not to mention that he had no moves at all, he didn't dare to use them carelessly even if he had any.

But at this moment, 'Parker' suddenly noticed that although the 'Hellhound' could be crushed to pieces with just one crush, due to its attack method, there were still a large number of 'Hellhound' ants attached to it, constantly devouring its flesh and blood.

"Narukami, can you summon those monsters again?"

"It's unlikely in the short term. I've consumed too much energy..."

"Energy?"

Looking at the 'flesh and blood giant' who looked like a demon, and then glancing at his daughter who was nestled behind Lan Ke, 'Parker' gritted his teeth as if he had made a huge decision.

"Narukami, I remember you were able to sign a contract with a 'fairy'..."

Lan Ke was certainly not a fool. He guessed what Parker was going to do almost the moment he opened his mouth.

It was obvious that Parker intended to rely on the 'contract' to transfer his energy to Lan Ke.

However, Lan Ke's first reaction was surprise, but he did not make a decision immediately.

There was nothing wrong with Parker's plan. From previous encounters alone, it was clear that Parker's level would definitely not be lower than 55 once he was transformed into a personality mask. He only needed to send the lowest-level Lion back to the Book of Masks, and then he would gain enhancements in all his attributes.

The increased MP was indeed enough for him to continue fighting.

Using a friendly force that has almost lost most of its combat capabilities in exchange for another friendly force's continued combat capability is a good choice, but the problem is...

"Mr. Parker, are you sure?"

Lan Ke glanced at Emilia out of the corner of his eye, as if to remind her that once she chose to sign a contract with him, she would no longer be able to take care of her daughter.

Unexpectedly, Parker sighed.

"My daughter is grown up now, and I can't care about her anymore..."

Parker's exclamation made Emilia instinctively panic, but the next sentence he said made Emilia's face flush red.

"I'll leave it to your care from now on."

After saying this, its face turned stern.

"So, Narukami, what's your decision?"

Looking at 'Parker' who was a little weak but still full of majesty, Lan Ke couldn't help but sigh, but then he showed a bright smile.

"Of course I won't refuse. After all, I've been 'spying on you for a long time'~"

Lan Ke's words were not a joke. After all, the other party was such a powerful "fairy", how could Lan Ke not want to transform the other party into his own "personality mask".

But the two sides got along quite well, and it hadn't reached a certain level, so he temporarily suppressed this idea.

Unexpectedly, before he could speak, the other party brought up the matter first.

Of course he wouldn't refuse.

Seeing Lan Ke make the decision, 'Parker' stretched out his front paw and placed it on Lan Ke's palm. With a dazzling light, the other party finally turned into a 'personality mask'. However, before the transformation, Lan Ke seemed to hear a strange sentence.

"I didn't expect that the target wasn't just my daughter, but me too..."

Then 'Parker' turned into a personality mask and attached directly to Lan Ke's face!

Almost at the same time, Lan Ke felt a force surging from deep within his body to every part of his body.

The originally tired spirit was lifted.

It can be said that their tactical goal has been achieved!

But just when Lan Ke was about to take action——

"Mr. Narukami!!"

Emilia's sudden words were somewhat beyond Lan Ke's expectations, but what she said next was even more beyond his expectations.

"Please let me... let me... become your 'possession'!!"

This sentence seemed to have drained away all of Emilia's courage. Her face flushed, she lowered her head and said nothing.

Although Lan Ke knew what the other party meant, he really wanted to complain to Emilia, "What you said is too ambiguous."

"Your Highness, there's no need for this. Once this battle is over, I will terminate my contract with Mr. Parker..."

"In that case, what's wrong with signing a contract with me?"

"What's more, everything started because of me. Whether it's 'Father' or 'Mr. Narukami', you've been dragged into this by me. How can I stay out of this now?"

At this moment, Emilia was no longer as weak as usual and appeared extremely strong. Seeing her tough attitude, Lan Ke sighed and nodded.

"In that case, I'll trouble you, Your Highness."

After receiving Lan Ke's consent, Emilia immediately smiled brightly. She took Lan Ke's hand and whispered something while emitting a faint fluorescent light.
