Lord Demon is behind you

"...Is that all?"

Having said that, Shaka calmed down again.

"You're right. But..."

She gave the Demon King a few meaningful glances.

In an instant, the dark spells that poured down like a torrential rain flooded their positions.However, after the dust cleared, there were only big pits hit by the spell, and the traces of the witches did not know where to go.

"Are you running away again?"

The Demon King quickly locked on to the target, and his wings slid to the other side.

In the third form, the devil has the strength of crushing level.Not only can several advanced spells be cast at the same time, and they can be hit in different directions, but the chanting time is also close to zero.

While dexterously shuttled in mid-air, constantly casting spells to chase after the two witches, he was able to free up his hands to help the brave man fight against Xuelu from the air.

Although the location of the spell is not so accurate and its power has been attenuated due to the distance between the two parties and the fact that the two sides are constantly changing, it still caused quite a lot of damage to Xuelu, who couldn't dodge at all, and relieved a lot of pressure on the brave man. .

In comparison, the two witches in the auxiliary department were not able to help Xuelu, but were forced by the high-level spells constantly bombarded by the Demon King, and had to run around.

Even if Shaka can move in an instant to avoid the damage, after all, there is no way to fight back, so she can barely maintain the status quo.

However, even so, she still looked calm, and even had the mood to comfort Lana beside her.

"It doesn't matter, as long as we persist until the end, we will win."

"You—do you think that you still have a chance to stand up?"

The demon king temporarily stopped attacking the two of them, and hovered in the air condescendingly.Just cast one or two dark spells in the direction of the battle between the brave man and Xuelu from time to time.

"of course."

Shaka said calmly.

"You must have noticed it yourself, otherwise, you wouldn't have been suspended in midair and never fell."

With the Demon King's current posture, the biggest weakness is undoubtedly in defense and blood volume.Although the attack power is quite strong, the corresponding error tolerance rate is very low, as long as it is hit once, it will die immediately.Even if it can be revived, it will lose the opportunity to fight back and be taken advantage of by the witches.

Correspondingly, if he can maintain this state and suppress the witches until Xuelu is defeated, the two witches on the fifth floor will completely lose the possibility of turning over.

—— It is not an easy task to cut Xuelu's long blood bar to the end.

Therefore, the key to victory or defeat is whether the devil can maintain his current state until Xuelu is killed, or whether the witch can persist until the devil himself makes mistakes.

In terms of probability, there is no doubt that the latter is more likely.

The Demon King is now acting as if he can do anything with ease, but in fact, as long as a small flying insect hits his face in mid-air, he may die - he is so fragile.

For this reason, he had to put all his energy into avoiding all possible dangers in advance, which undoubtedly consumed a lot of mental and physical strength.

Even though he possessed almost unlimited magic power and powerful attack power at this time, the physical weakness of the original mage system still existed.If he can't make a quick decision, it will undoubtedly be very unfavorable to him.

"--not bad."

There was a hint of a smile on the corner of the Demon King's mouth.

"Now that you are a witch, you still have such a calm mind and can analyze the current situation so thoroughly; this is the only one among the crazy women I have seen so far. Based on this alone, I must Kudos to you. It's more pleasant to be a rational madman than a mindless madman."

"Compared to this, isn't it you who still have the mood to chat with the enemy at this time—is it even crazier?" Shaka gently wrapped her arms around Lana's shoulders, and while guarding against his attack, she responded tit for tat .

"Chat? I don't have the leisure to chat with lunatics."

While speaking, the Demon King never forgot to output spells to Xuelu.As of now, Xuelu's blood volume has dropped by nearly half.

"I'm just using a more efficient way to destroy you. As I said before, this is the most cruel way."

"Destroy? Us? Way?" Shaka seemed to hear something ridiculous, "Only by this? What is this, talkative?"

"You guys," the demon king ignored the meaningless ridicule, just stared at the two witches in turn and asked, "Where does your resentment come from?"

"Does it need to be said? Of course..."

"Love leads to hate? I'm afraid that may not be the case. The brave man is not even familiar with you, so how can love come about? A calm and rational woman like you should not understand this kind of truth."

The devil lowered a little, and continued to stare at the two of them—of course he didn't forget to continue to attack Xuelu from a long distance.

"Tracing back to the source, you didn't have feelings for him first, and then you developed a desire to establish a relationship with him. You——from the very beginning, you approached him just to achieve a relationship with him."

It doesn't take a lot of careful thinking to spot this.The way the brave man said about their first encounter before—what was rescued by the saint when he was bullied by gangsters, etc., combined with the nature of the two of them, can be called full of loopholes.

How could a person with strong mental power who could detect the malice of others at any time let himself and his companions fall into the hands of hooligans?Especially Lana herself is too sensitive.Under normal circumstances, shouldn't the companion be notified to leave as early as the other party's desire to do something?unless--

"Deliberately create an incident, get close to the brave man by getting close to his companions, and further join his team-this matter was planned by you from the beginning to the end."

"...That's right, but it won't have any effect on the facts." Faced with this kind of questioning, the two witches didn't look surprised, Shaka admitted without much hesitation, "We just didn't Just dodge in time when the bastard sees the color."

"In this case, things are very strange," the demon king said lightly, "Why do you do this? Did you fall in love with the brave man before you knew him? Even if, as you said, falling in love with him is a matter of world consciousness For the things that are destined to be necessary, we must meet first and then talk about it."

Shaka wanted to answer, but Lana grabbed her arm.The dancer and witch, who was like a small animal, held her companion firmly and looked at the Demon King warily.

"Ah, I remembered."

However, the Demon King didn't need her response either.He opened the corner of his mouth full of malice, asked himself and answered, "Didn't you—have you fallen in love with him in the previous life? This love has continued, so there is no need to meet him in this life."

"I see," Shaka patted the back of Lana's hand reassuringly and said, "Do you still want to deny our relationship even now? Unfortunately, this is impossible. Now that we have become witches, apart from this There is nothing beyond the heart. Only this heart will be defended until the last moment."

"Negating the mind? What I want to do is not such a gentle thing. It seems that what I said is the truth, is it because of that 'things in the previous life' that you care about him?"

Shaka acquiesced.

"The content of that 'past life' is the story you told when you were at the door. Are you the protagonist of the story?"

"So what?"

As a BOSS, the law of not being able to lie to the challenger took effect again.The Demon King hit everything, so Shaka still couldn't deny it at all.

Meanwhile, Lana had been clutching her elbow desperately.

The Demon King looked at the two of them repeatedly.

"One of you is the protagonist of the story, and the other is the protagonist's friend. Then—who is the protagonist and who is your friend?"

"It doesn't matter at all, and we can't tell the difference ourselves."

"Oh, that's even stranger."

The Demon King smiled happily.

"Although now you two have become a witch with one heart because of the relationship between sharing the Demon King's Throne, and you also share the skills of spiritual power. But as far as I know, when you were still a human being, you should not have this ability— —The one who is truly gifted in spiritual power should only be the naive and stupid dancer behind you. Isn’t that right?”

Swept by his gaze, Lana lost the aura of a newborn calf before, and instead tried to shrink back towards Shaka, not knowing whether she was afraid of the devil or something else.

"It doesn't matter at all. When we were human beings, although we couldn't truly be of the same mind, we could connect with each other. It doesn't make any difference whether it's hers or mine," Lana said, "Besides , we were going to marry the same man."

"Oh, is that so?" The Demon King casually waved his hand and threw an attack spell at Xuelu, showing a subtle expression.

"In other words, it was she who first noticed the things in her previous life and then told you about it, so you have become curious about him. Because of this curiosity, you will try to join his team——

"This really perfectly explains why an egoistic woman like you has such crazy and extreme feelings for him. A person like you must believe in the set of past and present lives-from the beginning! You just hold approach him with the purpose of generating love."

"What exactly are you trying to say?" Shaka gradually sensed that something was wrong, "With this little sophistry, we can't shake our relationship at all—"

"Let me tell you, sad witch," the demon king raised his voice, "does your so-called past and present lives really exist?"

"……what?"

"Everything you believe in is undoubtedly based on the so-called past life. But ah, does that kind of illusory thing really exist?" He repeated.

This sentence seems to have hit something serious.Shaka gritted her teeth immediately.

"It's just something that I can't prove, so it's all illusory. Is this the so-called aura of the high-ranking demons?"

"Whatever you say." The demon king flapped his wings slowly and circled half a circle in mid-air—of course, he still continued to attack Xuelu with spells.

"Indeed, your story is really good. Even I can't help but think, it would be great if it was true. If I had eloped with the brave man in my previous life, it would be too romantic to bear—— But even so, delusions can only be delusions and cannot become reality. I don't believe a word of 'stories from past lives'."

The devil's eyes suddenly sharpened.

"Do you still want to use your own ideas to deny the beliefs of others? What arrogance!"

Shaka held Lana's hand and insisted on retorting.

"I'm just curious."

While attacking Xuelu, the Demon King took the time to ask, "About—how did you learn about the past life, and how did you confirm that it was the previous life?"

"That's a mystery that relies entirely on spiritual power..."

"Before the brave man just told me that the dancer over there has the ability to 'predict the future' to a certain extent. He never said that she can understand the past. Even if she can understand the past, there is no way to find someone to confirm the so-called past life. Therefore, I can’t be sure whether it’s something that really happened, or it’s your delusions; maybe it’s just a dream you have in private... Would a normal person take this kind of thing seriously?”

That's a really bad accusation.

"But, you are not us! Why do you think we can't be sure that's what really happened?" Although Shaka's expression changed, she still insisted.

"I couldn't be sure. But now I'm absolutely sure."

The demon king suspended the spell.He lowered his eyes to look at her from a high place, stretched out a finger and moved it slowly.

"Why? This is really sad. Poor witch, look back at the expression of the other half you trust with all your heart—! Her appearance has undoubtedly revealed all the facts!"

"Lana...?"

Shaka looked away suspiciously, only to find that Lana's face was completely pale.

"What's the matter? Why are you trembling? Don't worry, I certainly won't believe what the enemy says. We are..."

The dancer broke away from her hand, and opened her mouth as if to say something repeatedly.

——The initial mouth shape seems to be saying "I'm sorry".

"—You... What are you talking about? Yes, you mean... How did this happen?"

After interpreting the meaning of the other party, Shaka's face immediately turned pale.She took two steps back slowly, and slowly collapsed to the ground.

If you activate the spell at this time, you will definitely be able to catch both of them in one go.However, the Demon King didn't do that, he just floated in mid-air with an unfathomable expression, quietly watching the scene in front of him.

Lana repeated the sorry mouth over and over again.His knees gave way and he fell down.She tried to reach out to hold her companion's hand, but Shaka opened it.

"Did you lie to me? Lana——you actually lied to me, since then—why, you would...!"

"Why would you lie to me!" She screamed almost out of control, "We are obviously the closest friends, friends who are of the same heart and unconditional trust!"

Lana shook her head in confusion, anxiously wanting to approach and explain, but Shaka obviously couldn't listen to anything for the time being.

at this time--

A slight click sounded.

Cracks appeared on the girls' skin, and the epidermis peeled off like shards of porcelain.

A ray of black quietly dyed the bodies of the two, and spread rapidly from bottom to top.

The white fragments fell to the ground, and soon the two of them turned into pitch black from the waist down. Shaka didn't react until this time.

"This is, how..."

The two witches gradually revealed their original postures.

Lana maintained her perfect female curves and became a shape like a black female sculpture.The instrument in Shaka's hand was mixed with her body and grew at the end of her left hand.

The two were completely wrapped and assimilated by the thick black——

This is the true posture of a witch.

What really terrified her was that while they were constantly losing their human form, their bodies themselves began to shatter and dissipate little by little.

Just like other witches after receiving a fatal blow, starting from the end of the body, a little bit of broken and scattered blue data flow——

"What exactly is going on!"

Lana screamed silently and threw herself into Shaka's arms. Shaka didn't care about her, but just stared at the devil with wide eyes, "It's you, what did you do...ah——"

Her movements froze suddenly.

"Could it be, it's...!"

"Have you finally figured it out?" The demon king lowered his eyes. "This is really a sad scene—so sad that I don't even bother to appreciate my victory."

"The two of you are witches with one heart. This also means that when the hearts of the two of you are separated to the two sides, when the original unconditional trust is broken, it is the fifth layer. When the witch perishes—"

"Yes...that's what happened..."

Shaka cracked and fell off half of her face, twisting into a sarcastic wry smile.

"Because, at this moment, is my trust in Lana... in this child broken? I... my heart was shaken by her lies.

"Is this... is your plan? The former Demon King." She said softly, "We...we were really... completely destroyed by you from the inside to the outside... just like what I said before... "

In her arms, Lana seemed to be crying.

Shaka raised her black and slender right hand—the end of each finger was shaped like a pick, and rubbed her hair.

"...Okay. I also... didn't blame you, just a little bit angry... a little bit. The most angry will pass in a while, don't be afraid."

Lana shook her head vigorously, but she had lost her face, leaving only a black face, and she couldn't even distinguish the expression.

"She didn't mean to lie to you, you smart witch."

The Demon King finally interjected.

"I guess, she must have told you just now that the so-called 'previous life' scene was just something she made up, right? She didn't use her mental power to get it at all."

Shaka's face trembled slightly, probably nodding.

"Indeed..." Her voice echoed in the surroundings, "Those were originally... all this child's imagination. If we had known earlier... No, even if we knew this, our hearts would not change. We... Our love will not change. There is nothing wrong with us... It's just that you took advantage of the loophole and knocked us down."

——It's just that because of the momentary loss of trust before, the two of them are now destined to be completely broken.

It is irreparable.

Of course the Demon King would not deny this.

"Well, the cause and effect of the matter is probably like this." He said, "First of all, the dancer accidentally saw the brave man who was going out, and unexpectedly found that she couldn't detect the negative thoughts in his heart. It was love at first sight. But for a woman with her character—after she has someone she likes, it’s not unexpected to have some girlish dreams about him at night, right?"

"Your so-called past life is probably one of her dreams. When she shared the dream with you, she must not have thought much about it, and most of it was just to share her own feelings. She is this kind of brainless woman.——However , and that's the point."

His voice sank slightly.

"It was you—you misinterpreted it as 'what happened.' It couldn't have come from her, it could have just been your own."

Shaka didn't deny it.

The legs of the two witches have disappeared, and the blue data flow continues to spread.

"In addition, you once had an agreement to marry the same person, so you have the same interest in that person, and in order to get close to his goal, you have drawn up a series of action plans-this is the root of all tragedies Cause."

"She gave the cause, and you gave the guide. The two of you are the source of each other's tragedy. Together, they lead to the current ending—"

The devil ended up like this.

"—No one can blame anyone."
