Chapter 1768 The King's Name
"Do you really remember?"
Seeing that Rhode seemed to think of something, Tess was also shocked and asked him immediately.
"Hmm..." Rhodes nodded, with memories showing in his eyes, "It was not long ago that she and I sought divination from a powerful being. At that time, I didn't recognize that powerful being." The identity of existence, I just thought it was an ordinary divination, and didn't think about the deep meaning in it."
In the end, Rhode's expression was completely dignified.
"I have never believed in the results of divination. I used to think that it was just a way for the weak to seek psychological comfort. If you put all your hopes on divination, you will only get closer and closer to the time of death. But that Divinations made by powerful beings are always astonishingly effective."
Tiss nodded, and patiently listened to Rhodes' narration, her eyes glowed, as if she would believe no matter what Rhodes said.
"The succubi also have unique divination techniques. Which method do you use to perform the divination?" Tiss asked softly.
"Prophecy cards." Rhodes replied, "That is a set of magical prophecy cards. If you use them properly, the things drawn on the prophecy cards will appear in front of you in physical form. Even the phoenix is extinct. Creatures, prophecy cards can also be transformed."
Tess nodded, with a longing look in her eyes.
Speaking of the prophecy card, Rhode couldn't help but recall the current owner of that unique set of cards. I don't know if Rowling can handle everything in the surface world well during his absence.
In the surface world, the changes originating from demons have attracted the attention of all creatures. Even those Erathians who hated the Necromancer to their bones would not choose to take revenge on the Necromancer during this period, which made Rhode feel a little relieved.
"You said that you remembered the name of the King of Lust. Is that related to the prophecy card and the fairy dragon you mentioned...?"
Tiss looked at the dark yellow monster and asked with some uncertainty.
Her words were intermittent, and she seemed a little unconfident. In the end, her voice became more subtle. Rhodes had to concentrate on listening to understand what she was saying.
"She drew the prophecy card, and the one drawn on the card is the girl named Cecilia."
Rhodes didn't notice Tiss' abnormality, but explained in a deep voice: "I remember that on that card, besides the girl named Cecia, there was also an elf named..."
Speaking of this, Rhodes' words stopped. Regarding the one that only appeared on the prophecy card,
Rhodes' memory of the elf's name after only hearing it once is already very vague.
"It seems to be called Butch... or something else, anyway, he is an elf." Rhodes replied.
"Butch..." Tess seemed to have thought of something, with a puzzled look in her eyes.
"Do you have any impression of this name?" Rhodes asked immediately after discovering Tiss' abnormality.
Tess shook her head, but did not answer.
Rhodes glanced at her, and then said: "According to the person who divination for us, Butch is Cecilia's lover. When Cecilia fell into hell because of falling in love with a foreign race, Butch awakened his heroic will , in order to retrieve Cecilia's soul, he once went to hell alone and defeated the most powerful arrogant king..."
As he said that, Rhodes took a deep breath, and his gaze followed the lake of fire in front of the magic ship to the end of the scarlet color.
Tiss listened to Rhodes' narration, and she had already forgotten her original thoughts in her heart. She opened her mouth slightly, with a look of surprise on her face: "Is this... all true?"
"I don't know either." Rhodes shook his head and answered helplessly.
"That sounds almost unbelievable..."
Tiss' emotions were still immersed in the story Rhodes told, and she couldn't calm down for a long time, but her reason told her that this seemed impossible: "The arrogant king is an invincible existence, he is hell The master of hell, the leader of all hell kings, how could he be defeated by other creatures?"
"I didn't believe in this story before." Sensing the doubts in Tess's heart, Rhodes stretched out his extra arm and gently stroked the top of her head, "Until I found out that the person who predicted me was also the king of hell. The story told by the king of hell should not be false."
Tiss looked at Rhodes in surprise, with longing in her eyes: "Have you seen those kings with your own eyes?"
"That's right."
Recalling the appearance that belonged to Messiah, Rhodes admitted this to Tiss.
Even so, Rhodes did not disclose to Tiss the real mission of this trip to the Gate of Betrayal.
"That's a great honor." Thinking of what Rhodes said, Tiss's eyes became more yearning, "All demons are eager to see the true face of the demon king and be appreciated by the kings. I didn't expect you to be able to do this..."
"I don't think it's an honor." Rhodes waved his hand, refuting Tiss' statement, "Those kings of hell are just stronger demons, and I don't need their appreciation. All I need is Power, power stronger than them."
Tiss glanced at Rhodes in surprise, and seemed to be surprised by Rhodes' words: "But...they are the kings of hell. Demons like us are born to serve them."
Rhodes curled his lips: "You are wrong, Tiss. Since you were born in hell, you have your own will, and no one asked you to do what you were born with. You can serve the king of hell, but that is By your own choice."
"I'm sorry, Lord Ellot..." Tiss pursed her lips and said in a low voice, "I still can't believe that the arrogant king will be defeated by the creatures in the surface world."
As she said that, Tiss looked at the dark yellow monster in front of her with some worry, as if she was very worried that her questioning would arouse his anger.
However, the dark yellow monster wasn't as angry as Tiss thought, and didn't even show any offended expression, but said a little seriously: "The one who defeated the arrogant king was not a simple surface world creature, he is a hero."
"Hero..." Tiss murmured, the word that Rhodes emphasized emphatically.
"Yes, hero." Rhodes seemed to have thought of something, with a firm look in his eyes, "The hero has awakened his own will, and can do things that other creatures can't imagine. With the blessing of the hero's will, there is nothing to do If not, even defeating the arrogant king is still possible."
