Just as she was feeling disappointed, Chloe asked in a hesitant voice, "How much?"
Elena was stunned, seemingly unable to understand Chloe's reply, and even felt that she had misheard.
Seeing Elena's stunned expression, Chloe seemed to have made up her mind. She stomped her foot, then put her hands on her hips and shouted loudly to Elena in a spirited voice, "How much? If you have enough money, I can take you there!"
The volume of those words was so loud that Elena's ears were ringing.
If she's paid, things are easy. Chloe might even risk sending her to the human border... After all, it's just a small border town. Even if Chloe's demon identity is discovered, no one can stop her except for the saintess Elena mentioned.
As for sending the potatoes back? Well, the potatoes have already sprouted, and I'm not worried that they won't survive if I leave them here... Besides, it won't have much of an impact if I send them back for a day.
Well, making money is more important, after all, she can't live off Lulum forever...
"There's no need to shout so loudly, I can hear you... As for money, I have some here..."
Elena's tinnitus subsided after a while, but she was very pleased to see Chloe looking so agreeable.
Surprisingly, money did come in handy; luckily, she managed to grab some valuables while fleeing the church…
The secret she learned was something she wanted to tell the Holy Maiden as soon as possible, since the Holy Maiden was still on the border of the human race, and she could contact the Holy Maiden as a wanted criminal of the church... If the Holy Maiden returned to headquarters, she didn't know when she would get another chance.
The sooner we tell the saint about that matter, the fewer variables there will be, the safer the saint will be, and the sooner the church can get rid of those pests...
So, with a voice made even weaker by tinnitus, she prepared to talk to Chloe about money.
Just as she was about to talk to Chloe about money, there was a soft knock on the door.
"Did Lulum send someone to pick me up? That's perfect, I can have that person take the potatoes back for me..."
Upon hearing the knock on the door, Chloe sensed the strong demonic aura outside and instinctively assumed it was one of her own.
After all, this place is within Rurumu's barrier, and the person who came is a demon who knocked on the door honestly. There's no way they could be an enemy...
"Those outside are demons! Don't open the door!"
Elena sensed the presence of the person knocking on the door and exclaimed in surprise.
Seeing Elena's panicked expression, Chloe didn't know how to explain things to her right away, so she deliberately spoke to Elena in a mysterious tone:
"Don't worry, no matter if the person who comes is a demon or not, she wouldn't dare to hurt me here..."
After saying that, Chloe walked to the door and prepared to open it.
However, although Chloe said that, she knew that if she could chat happily with a demon, Elena, a member of the church, would definitely suspect her identity.
So before opening the door, she thought to herself, "I'll have that demon at the door cooperate with me in a little act, have her 'attack' me, and then I'll 'unleash' my power to drive her away... Hmm, it's a simple script, but as long as I'm not discovered, it's a success..."
After thinking it through, she slowly opened the door.
Chloe paused for a moment, looking at the black-robed figure outside the door who was about the same height as her.
However, Chloe was stunned not because she had any doubts about the black-robed man's height, but because she saw the twisted, tentacle-like object held in the black-robed man's pale little hand...
"Hello, goodnight~" the black-robed man said to Chloe in a sweet, yet enchanting tone.
After saying that, the man in black robes released the twisted object from his hand, and the tentacle-like thing suddenly attacked Chloe.
"No, I haven't told her I'm going to act yet...and why tentacles?"
Chapter Seventy-Six: The Knife!
After the three Heavenly Kings failed to defeat the cult leader, Shadow King Lucas immediately activated the emergency contact line with the Demon King and reported the situation to Lulum.
This is why Lulum sometimes shows "busy" when Chloe uses the communication scroll.
Because Chloe's scroll was the emergency communication line, and it was being blocked by the Shadow King.
Lulum showed great interest in Lucas's report, but as a master of mental magic, she also shared her analysis with the three Heavenly Kings:
"That person probably doesn't have power above the Saint level, and might just be someone who has just stepped into the Saint level. Considering her ability to read Lucas's thoughts without him noticing, and her mental magic level of escaping with a mental clone right in front of you, if she were really stronger than you, would she need to waste so much time talking to you?"
The three Heavenly Kings agreed with Lulum's analysis. That cult leader did indeed have strange abilities. Apart from the Shadow King, who was mentally invaded and suppressed by her, the other two did not feel threatened by her.
However, the way she disappeared was truly bizarre... probably some kind of domain ability.
Furthermore, that Abyss Order member has no desire to fight. If she doesn't come looking for him, they probably can't do anything to her except for Lulum, who is the Demon Lord.
And Lulum is unlikely to leave the Demon King's Castle in the next month or two.
Therefore, we don't need to worry about that Abyss Order cadre for the time being.
The most important thing right now is to deal with those two super monsters that have been infected by the abyss and gone berserk...
Crimson King Tepera and Demon King Mukia said, "Since we're already here, let's just take care of those two super monsters... We can use that as an excuse to skip today's work."
So the two of them excitedly ran off to deal with the super monster, completely abandoning their authoritative and composed demeanor in front of their subordinates.
The Shadow King, who was left standing there, shook his head and said: "He's thousands of years old and still loves to play... It's not like he's with a pretty boy, what's so exciting about that?"
Then he turned and walked towards Chloe's location. Now that the threat was gone, he needed to continue his escort mission...
……
Chloe hates tentacles.
Ever since she became a loli succubus and received the same name as a certain magical girl, she has developed a strong aversion to anything resembling tentacles.
I was afraid that I might accidentally trigger some strange CG.
So, when she was about to be attacked by the tentacles, she subconsciously raised her hand to block them, and planned to switch accounts, use the larger version of Power to kill the tentacles first, and then have a good "heart-to-heart talk" with the guy in front of her who looked like a loli succubus.
Why is such a cute little girl playing with tentacles?
Indeed, Chloe sensed a kindred spirit emanating from the petite figure in black robes before her; this figure was most likely also a loli succubus.
But before Chloe could switch accounts, she noticed something was wrong...
After releasing the tentacle-like twisted object that attacked Chloe, the man in black walked straight into the house without giving Chloe a second glance, seemingly very confident in what he had released.
After entering the room, the man in black robes observed the room for a while, sighed with some disappointment, and then looked at Elena, who was struggling to get up from the bed.
"So this is the second time you've seen me, isn't it? I can't believe those useless trash have kept you alive until now..."
"It's you! You demon who colluded with the bishop! What did you do to that half-elf girl named Chloe?!"
Although the voice of the man in black was not familiar to Elena, she was still certain from his words and actions that he was the demon she had discovered who was colluding with the bishop!
The church's bishop colluded with the demons in an attempt to control the church; this was the secret she discovered.
Upon hearing Elena mention Chloe, the man in black smiled and said:
"That little girl? Don't worry, she smells familiar to me, so I didn't kill her. I merely bestowed my 'gift' upon her; whether she survives or not is up to fate... Sigh, old age really does make one talkative. Why am I telling you all this? You're going to die anyway. Blame it on knowing the Order's secret..."
The man in black shook his head, seemingly blaming himself for talking too much. He then walked to Elena's side, made a knife-like gesture with his finger, and pressed it against Elena's heart. In a sorrowful tone, he said, "Sigh, to be honest, killing a weakling like you is really pointless... Do you have any last words? Or you could try to persuade me not to kill you..."
"..." Elena looked at the man in black robes, or rather, the man behind the man in black robes, and silently closed her eyes.
Seeing the silent Elena, the man in black robes chuckled, rubbing his forehead. "Hmph, hahaha... As expected of that saintess's follower? I was actually looking forward to seeing your pathetic struggle... Fine, I'll grant you peace..."
However, before the man in black could finish speaking, she suddenly felt a strange sensation in her lower back.
"Um?!"
She looked down at her waist and saw a bright green short sword stuck there at some point.
“I’m very interested in your ‘cult.’ Could you explain it to me?”
Behind the man in black robes, Chloe, holding the Demon Sword, whispered something in her ear in a sly tone.
……
The tentacle-like things released by the black-robed man were devoured the moment they touched Chloe's left hand.
That's right, it was swallowed up.
To be precise, those twisted tentacles were captured and devoured by the emerald green vines that suddenly sprouted from the markings on Chloe's left hand after they came into contact with the invisible patterns on her left hand.
Chloe was momentarily confused by the sudden appearance of the green vines that had sprouted from her hand, but she quickly realized what they were.
These vines are "magic vines" that have parasitized her through the contract on the back of her hand, and these markings on her body are where they parasitize!
Because she hadn't used the Demon Sword for a long time, the markings that weren't glowing hadn't really stood out lately.
If she hadn't been constantly stuffing random things into the engravings, she might have even forgotten their existence.
However, she did not expect that these vines would be interested in these tentacles and would rush out to devour them.
Although the scene of vine tentacles versus twisted tentacles is quite sanity-draining.
However, the mysterious man in black robes seemed oblivious to what was happening here...
Chloe looked at the black-robed figure with his back to her, completely unaware of her current state, and thought to herself.
She then pulled the Demon Sword from under her skirt and tiptoed behind the man in black.
During this time, the black-robed man, who was in his "talkative villain" mode, still didn't notice Chloe.
Chloe, standing behind the man in black, overheard some "good stuff."
Finally, Chloe, who had followed the man in black to the bedside, winked at Elena, who was looking at her, and then used the Demon Sword in her hand to stab the man in black hard in the waist...
Well, I must say, it feels really nice to the touch...
Chapter 77 Your hands are so beautiful.
After Chloe plunged the Demon Sword into the black-robed loli's body from behind, she was quite certain that the Demon Sword had worked.
Because I could clearly feel my energy recovering rapidly, and the markings on my body were emitting a dazzling green light.
Most importantly, the black-robed loli's aura was also visibly weakening after she stabbed her.
However, the effect didn't seem to be as "outstanding" as Chloe had imagined.
To be honest, Chloe didn't expect the sneak attack to go so smoothly. The black-robed loli was even stunned for a moment after being stabbed before she could react.
Of course, Chloe did not forget the characteristics of the Demon Sword. Even if Lulum touched this sword, she would instantly lose her strength due to the loss of energy, let alone the black-robed loli in front of her whose aura was not as strong as Lulum's, who had been stabbed.
If you get stabbed, you can refer to Chloe stabbing the ground with the Demon Sword. The target of the stab is not only energy, but also various kinds of energy such as life force and magic power, which will be greedily absorbed by the Demon Sword.
According to Chloe's analysis, any creature stabbed by the Demon Sword should be devoured instantly... The same thing happened to the magical beast she stabbed before, and the person who tried to kidnap Alesia...
However, stabbing this black-robed loli only weakened her aura.
That's right, Chloe intended to kill him from the very beginning.
Although Chloe was very interested in what the "Cult" the black-robed loli was talking about was, she actually had no intention of holding back from the very beginning.
After all, judging from her aura, this black-robed loli is only weaker than the Four Heavenly Kings, and is very likely a Saint-level powerhouse.
If a sneak attack fails to completely incapacitate the black-robed loli, she is very likely to be killed in return.
Of course, capturing the black-robed loli alive would be ideal, since Chloe was still very curious about what the "Order" she mentioned was up to.
However, if Chloe wanted to get something out of the black-robed loli, why didn't she use her full size to subdue her, instead of directly killing her with the Demon Sword?
Because the main character and the black-robed loli are both Saint-level, the black-robed loli is very likely to become instinctively alert the moment she switches to her main character and her aura is leaked.
Whether Chloe will be able to defeat the black-robed loli at that time is uncertain.
However, to Chloe's surprise, this black-robed loli was much more resilient to grass than Chloe had imagined.
After being stabbed by the Demon Sword, she actually appeared to be completely unharmed.
If Chloe hadn't sensed the black-robed loli's aura rapidly weakening, she would have thought the Demon Sword hadn't worked.
"Why does it feel like it's better to just rub against the outside than to insert it?" Chloe wondered.
Could it be because the target is a Saint-level being that the effect of penetrating is not as good as the effect of rubbing?
Since Chloe would never normally use Saint-level beings for experiments, she wasn't entirely sure.
Although the effect wasn't as good as Chloe had imagined, it was just right... After all, judging from the black-robed loli's rapidly weakening aura to the point of almost dying, it perfectly met Chloe's requirement of capturing her without being killed in return.
"Wait, could it be that the Demon Sword knew I wanted to capture it alive, so it didn't just drain it to death?" Chloe suddenly thought of this possibility.
However, she hasn't had time to investigate further yet.
……
After whispering in the black-robed loli's ear, Chloe sensed the loli's frail, almost lifeless aura. To prevent the loli from dying instantly, she pulled out the Demon Sword that had been embedded in the loli's waist.
After drawing her sword, Chloe looked at the black-robed loli who was "forcing herself" to stand still, without saying a word or responding to her questions. Chloe assumed that she had burned out.
So he quickly checked the status panel of the black-robed loli.
