The girl added a few more words, explaining why she believed they were from the Bloodstained Society. Her reasonable speculation immediately convinced the nobles that the Bloodstained Society was responsible, and their fear turned into anger.

Just then, Berea, the peasant girl Maginus had seen in White Dove City, came running up, panting, and said to Roslie:

"You must be Miss Roslie. Our captain invites you over. When will the Holly family guards arrive?"

"I'll go right away. Oh, and Miss Ilsis, thank you for your help. I'll prepare your reward later."

Rosly naturally wanted to be closer to the stronger people, as it would make her feel safer, and she didn't forget to say goodbye to Maginus when she left.

After she walked away, Bereia followed, but when she noticed Maginus's gaze, she stopped and turned back, looking puzzled.

"Miss, what's wrong?"

"……nothing."

Turning her gaze away, the girl noticed that the farm girl had changed a lot compared to before. She had a sacred aura about her, and her personality had become cheerful and confident.

Everyone has a bright future.

With a powerful leap, Maginus aimed outside the safe zone and jumped again. Looking down from the air, he saw that Mani and the Yue Liang siblings had already squeezed in, so he stopped paying attention.

Using his life senses to locate the hidden Laura, Maginus walked over and stared intently at her, who refused to reveal herself. The succubus, in an invisible state, rolled her eyes at the girl with utter boredom.

"Honestly, I thought you couldn't find me. Seriously, how did you even find me?"

"Eye."

Laura scoffed at the same excuse, not believing Maginus's words at all.

The two stood in a secluded corner, observing the battle between the church personnel and the Bloodstained Society.

The church members say they only act on matters related to demons and devils, but these good-natured people will still help out when chaos or assassination attempts occur.

It's highly likely that the Bloodstained Society has a bad reputation; otherwise, they might not have protected the nobles of Red Sparrow City.

They might as well pretend to be a revenge organization targeting evil nobles than pretend to be me.

Maginus focused her mind, keeping some of her attention on the battle.

About ten minutes later, the church's defenses were breached, and the assassins, whose fighting style was unlike that of assassins, swarmed in and attacked the guards and temple warriors inside.

The red mist really gave them a lot of convenience. While others were blinded, they could see objects directly, which meant they could effectively hide while also assassinating accurately.

Guards and warriors fell one by one, and the original defensive line collapsed and retreated. It was at this moment that the succubus stretched.

"I've had enough of watching the show. I'll go myself. You just stay here and make sure no one gets close."

She slapped herself on the forehead while invisible, and her face, hair, and even clothes were instantly burned by flames, changing her appearance so that it was impossible to tell that she had any connection with "Lola".

At this moment, she was wearing leather armor, which, in terms of texture, resembled human skin.

She produced a whip from somewhere, the black bristles at the tip of which were hair.

Upon seeing this, Maginus pulled out a black robe from her dimensional bag and put it on. Her hair turned light red, her eyes turned black, she put her longsword into the bag, and drew out a short sword to fight.

Fortunately, she can use short swords, long swords, and greatswords, and with the red mist covering her, not many people should be able to guess her identity.

Chapter 297 The Man Who Made a Deal with a Succubus

"Quick, there are still enemies here!"

Amidst the increasingly chaotic battlefield, Wright shouted to the warriors he led. The assassin's dagger struck his armor, leaving only a scratch. He then swung his sword and decapitated the assassin.

Huff

"Where did all these assassins come from?"

The series of battles had drained Wright of his strength. He leaned against the wall to catch his breath, his eyes never leaving Rosley Holly's location.

Mani and Yue Liang were still by her side, and there were many more people protecting her.

Ultimately, why was she the assassin's final target? Although she was a direct member of the Holly family, she was not in line for succession.

Most people's attention was focused on Rosely Holly, both the assassin and the protector.

The Bloodstained Society only sent a small group to attack other nobles in order to relieve pressure on the main battlefield.

The effect was remarkable. The temple members who were invited did not want to see more casualties, and more warriors were sent out to protect the nobles.

In comparison, the Temple sends out more warriors than the Bloodstained Society sends out assassins.

However, no one noticed that two furtive figures were steadily approaching the group of nobles.

Walking with Laura, they arrived at a spot close enough to the person Laura had described. Maginus whispered the location of the woman she was looking for:

"I'll stand here about 10 meters to your right front. Since you said I can't handle this, I'll stand here to keep you in check."

"Okay, see you later."

The succubus bid farewell to Maginos, flicked her long whip lightly, and left the girl's sight, disappearing into the red mist.

Closing her eyes, she switched to using her life senses to probe, observing the succubus moving through the crowd. Laura didn't take advantage of the chaos to attack others, and quickly arrived at her target.

Having confirmed that Maginus had indeed identified the person she was looking for, she licked her lips with her slender tongue and let out a seductive yet slightly wicked voice from her throat:

"You've been doing well lately, haven't you? Oh, or rather, Ms. Conova Jackson?"

The penetrating voice pierced through the red mist and reached the ears of others. The other nobles who heard the name turned to look at the person in the center.

The girl targeted by Laura trembled slightly upon hearing Laura's altered voice, a hint of fear appearing in her eyes, as if she were quite familiar with Laura's changed voice.

"No, it can't be them, it must be the Bloodstained Gang coming to kill me..."

Konova muttered to herself in a voice no one could hear, for her, being stained with blood and wanting to kill herself was better than any other possibility.

The nobles around her thought so too; some instinctively kept their distance, while others eagerly approached to protect her.

The Bloodstained Society members were a bit confused, as they didn't have this woman on their side, and the organization had no mission to take action against Cornova Jackson.

Could it be a revenge killing? If that's the case, let's not interfere. Let this leather-armored woman target the nobles instead.

The assassins communicated using coded language. Those who had originally intended to assassinate Laura dispersed and resumed their targets among the nobles.

Laura, who had taken away the Child of Slaughter so quickly earlier, was now laughing happily, clearly not in a hurry, and continued to mock Cornova from within the mist:

"Where do you think you can escape to? What good will it do to have the temple purify you or the mage conceal your presence? Your soul has already found its home, and that's something that can't be changed no matter what."

"Do you remember the contract you signed with me, you ugly woman? You gave me your lustful soul, and I helped you in return..."

"There's a demon here! There's a demon here!"

Now that things had come to this point, the woman targeted by Laura could no longer deceive herself and directly revealed her true identity.

As soon as she spoke, more nobles distanced themselves from the woman, realizing that she had probably made some shady deal with the succubus.

A deal involving the exchange of one's soul is not so easy to break. Contracts involving the soul usually involve the plane in which the creature that made the agreement resides, and secondly, the River Styx, the essential passage for the soul.

There are ways to break a contract, the simplest being to kill the party in the contract. But as things stand, it seems unlikely that Ms. Cornova will be able to defeat the demon.

Konova's shouts drew the attention of everyone in the temple. They looked over sharply, but the red mist made it impossible to see where the so-called succubus was.

Wright, who was watching the battle, immediately became alert, straightened his tired chest, and found Captain Kent:

"Captain, did you hear that?"

"heard it."

Kent, who had just repelled the assassin with his sword, rubbed his head and said, "Go check on things. I have important business to attend to here. If I leave, this guy will definitely be able to kill Rosley Holly directly."

Standing in front of him was a mid-level assassin, who had probably come to help after killing his original target. If Kent hadn't protected Rosly, she and the others around her would have been dead.

Wright received instructions and immediately left the area, breaking through the crowd alone to the location of the shout. As soon as he arrived, he heard malicious laughter.

After she was interrupted, some guards found Laura's location. Laura calmly dodged the attacks and continued speaking:

"You can't shut me up without magic, are you? Or are you planning to cover up the truth by screaming all the time?"

"You ugly woman."

Ugly appearance?

The nobles looked at Conova with astonishment. This noblewoman who married into the Jackson family was not ugly at all. Her features and face shape were perfect.

Could it be that……

With a forced smile, Konova said haughtily, "Don't listen to her lies, she's a devil, she never tells the truth."

"Yes, yes, I want to ruin your reputation."

Laura toyed with her prey, her eyes gleaming with interest, and blurted out everything at breakneck speed:

"You are a genie with goblin blood who became incredibly ugly after awakening your bloodline, and made a contract with me to become more beautiful so that your current husband would take a liking to you."

The speaker's extremely fast pace should have made him incomprehensible, but everyone around him heard him clearly.

Goblin bloodline? A warlock who has reverted to ancestral ways?

The nobles' minds conjured up images of goblins from storybooks and circuses, and they stared at Laura in disbelief. Laura's lips twitched, but she maintained her composure and said:

"This is all a devil's conspiracy; don't believe it."

Maginus watched like it was a play, thoroughly enjoying herself. When her life sense detected a familiar life force, she grabbed her weapon and headed towards Wright.

Temporarily postpone or increase the number of "coococoo" (a type of slang term for something that is not translated).

No update today. There will probably be even more missed updates in February. *cough*

Chapter 298 Strength far exceeded

"Hello, this road is blocked."

Lowering her voice, Maginus stood in front of Wright, her pale red hair peeking out from her black robe making her look somewhat familiar.

Even though her pupils were black, Wright still felt that her demeanor resembled that of the wanted person.

She really joined the Bloodstained Society... no, she has a grudge against the Bloodstained Society, it's definitely not Maginot.

First, the correct answer was eliminated due to interference from external information. Having just experienced a lot of battles, Wright raised his longsword and pointed the tip at the black-robed man in front of him.

"I'll only say this once: get out of my way, you Bloodstained Society bastards."

“I told you, esteemed paladin, this road is blocked.”

Maginus responded by lightly flicking his exquisite short sword and striking a pose, deliberately adopting a respectful tone.

Wright didn't care whether she respected him or not; the veins on his arms bulged as he swung his longsword!

A powerful attack.

Psionic: Enchanted Weapons.

The longsword swung down at Maginus, and at the same moment the girl enchanted her short sword, raising the blade only as Wright's attack came crashing down.

The two collided, and Wright stared in disbelief at the sword beneath him.

He was being slowly lifted up, and his strength was no match for the somewhat thin-looking guy in front of him.

The power of the bull!

Wright immediately cast a spell to enhance his power, which slightly stopped him from being pushed back. He frowned and stared at Maginus, as if trying to see her face through the hood.

Even with his own magical enhancements, Wright still didn't gain much of an advantage in the struggle, and in order to go and support the nobleman, he had to move his weapon aside first.

He moved his longsword aside in preparation for another attack, but things didn't go as planned. The opening that Wright made while moving his longsword aside was seized by Maginus, who rushed in front of the paladin without hesitation and swung her short sword down.

The two sides are enemies now, so there's no need to hold back. Besides, if he can't even withstand this move, he might as well just die.

Faced with a murderous attack, Wright gripped his longsword in a backhand grip, adjusted his posture, and blocked the path of the short sword with the blade.

The two collided, and a magical light flashed across the sword, steadily blocking the attack without leaving a scratch on its surface.

Of course, Wright didn't have time to pay attention to these details. After blocking the attack, he kicked out, trying to hit the girl in the stomach.

Maginus's reaction speed allowed him to see the slight backward trajectory of Wright's leg as he exerted force, and he raised his leg in advance to block Wright's kick and fly backward.

Break the evil!

She landed abruptly, her shoes scraping against the smooth marble floor. She looked up at Wright as the paladin's longsword flashed with a dazzling light as it fell toward her.

Is this the first time I've faced the Evil-Slaying Slash head-on?

The light was heavy and sacred, and Wright's face was full of determination. Maginus felt the pressure and developed a strange sense of disgust for the light and for Wright himself.

I hate the light, I hate the paladins.

Vitality and psychic energy intertwined with the short sword. Maginus took a deep breath and increased the force with which she swung the hilt.
