Chapter 315 Edwards's Origin

The crow grabbed the huge werewolf head and flew around. It circled an arc and found a gap between the many crawling objects and windows outside the castle to fly in. With its black wings spread flat, it glided over the heads of the fiercely fighting rebel coalition and landed lightly and forcefully in a corridor behind the battle line.

Bassam, Louis, and Donna are all here.

A skinned body of an evil creature lay next to it. The men were waiting anxiously. The little witch squatted in the corner with her head in her hands, and the pupils in her yellow eyes were dilated.

It wasn't until Clayton's head was placed on her body by the crow that her eyes focused again, and then the crow fell to the ground and was picked up by the dwarf next to her.

It's an alchemical creation, not a real crow.

Exiting from Asuka's perspective, Donna stood up unsteadily while holding Clayton. Her face was pale, she took a few steps forward, bent over and retched.

Clayton tried to speak, but his vocal cords were silent.

Bassem waved to his servant, who then took a knife to cut open the body of the monster next to him, and connected a pair of bloody and still moving lungs and trachea to the bottom of the werewolf's head. Clayton suddenly came out. He breathed out the accumulated blood foam.

"I sent you a message," Bassem said. "Didn't you see it?"

Clayton spat out a blood blister in Donna's hand: "What did you write?"

"Of course there is news that enemy troops are gathering on the west side. I don't know what languages ​​​​you know, so I ordered someone to draw a picture specifically."

Bassam's tone was bad, of course, and it was a shame for Creighton to be driven away from the area where he was stationed for ten minutes.

"Edwards used illusions to deceive us. The witchcraft was unusual. Not only were there illusions before our eyes, but the sounds and smells could also be tampered with. Therefore, neither I nor the other defenders noticed that they were gathering strength to attack the west wall."

"Edwards is not an illusionist." Basham sighed, and it was obvious that he was regretting his break with Edwards.

However, this is not something he can decide.

"Forget it, I have already informed others to send soldiers to support the first floor. Edwards' people cannot capture the first floor immediately. We can retake it." He looked at Donna: "But she has to stay here, she is The key to our defense against Edwards.”

Clayton did not refute, but used his eyes to signal his niece to cooperate with the dwarf prince's battle.

"Where is Adelaide?" he then asked Louis.

If he looked the most miserable, Louis was the second most miserable.

Priest Louis's upper body is covered with bloodshot cuts that are still healing, and yellow fat is exposed in some places. Moreover, because it was decomposed before, his clothes are all damaged. Until now, he is not wearing pants, but has a band of sin around his lower body. The skin peeled off something. Clara was still in her hand.

Not only does his current image not resemble that of a priest, but he is heading in the direction of cannibalism.

"She's gone. Now it's time for us to think about what's at hand," Louis said.

"I know this kind of witchcraft. It is the secret method of the Wiccan Order."

Bassem frowned. He had never heard of this name. The gap between the fairyland and the real world made many news less circulated.

Donna on the side had already recovered. She handed Clayton over to the dwarf servant, and she took out the "Borrowed" Book of Inquisition from the church again from the side pocket of her skirt. She flipped through it and found this He looked up after his name and asked the priest: "It's the organization that worships Ainat, the demon of lust."

She had seen this organization that was closely related to the devil before when she was studying the Black Mass, and Bracola also had records of the Witch Club.

The Witches and Demons Guild worships Ainat, the lustful demon god, one of the seven demons. They have members ranging from princes and nobles to farmers and beggars. Its core sacrificial ceremony is the "Secret Holy Marriage". It is said that every member of the guild has They can see with their own eyes the object of their worship - the goat-headed demon god whose mortal body possesses both sexual characteristics. He will marry and have intercourse with his admirer, and the first child he will give birth to will be made into dishes. Initiates must eat this dish as an oath of everlasting devotion to Ainat.

This ritual is considered a variation of the Black Mass.

Every gathering of members of the Witch Club is themed around feasting. They seem to be always enjoying themselves and are tireless.

Members of this organization often appeared in the territories of lewd noble lords. The church severely cracked down on them many times, but the Witches and Demons Association never weakened.

The Demon Lord will leave a mark on his believers, so even if his believers have never met each other before, they can immediately connect with each other after noticing the mark on each other. This is what many devil-worshipping sects have repeatedly banned. s reason.

Louis nodded in agreement to Donna's question: "Yes, but the Wiccan Guild is not a strict organization. It is also the name of the ritual. As long as you have participated in the Wiccan Guild, you are considered a member of the Wiccan Guild."

Donna flipped through the book again: "But I didn't find any record of this witchcraft in the book."

"That's because this witchcraft is summarized as 'seduce others.'" Lewis affirmed Bassam's view here: "However, I have never heard of them using such witchcraft on others, because this Witchcraft is what the Wiccan disciples use on themselves.”

"Although those disciples of the devil are dissolute and have a taste for luxury, there are also many poor people among their members. They may not have the financial resources to provide for everyone's enjoyment at the party, so they will use this kind of magic on themselves to entertain themselves."

The magic of deception makes inferior food delicious, simple houses look magnificent, and ugly men and women become handsome men and beautiful women in the eyes of the caster.

It is worth mentioning that although many members of the Witch Society used such magic on themselves, they did not know that it was an illusion. Many confused members of the Witch Society were arrested by the church while lying in dirty and cramped huts. After being tortured, they still insisted that they had offered burnt offerings to the Father, so they received the guidance of angels and got the right to enjoy temporary pleasure in the luxurious heaven. The violent actions of the church were absurd.

However, the venison they ate at the banquet was actually rat meat, the wine was also rotten water, and the people who slept with them were not necessarily of the opposite sex.

They were so convinced that the judges of the church dissected the stomachs of many Witch Society disciples before they understood the truth of these heretical behaviors.

Edwards was obviously not comparable to these low-level Witch Society disciples, but the era he lived in was long gone, and even the secrets of the Witch Society had been cracked for a long time.

"Such secrets have limitations. Edwards' ability to cast such illusions on outsiders must be due to Osmar's contribution, but the root of this magic will not change. Next, you should often think about painful things and regretful things, so that his illusion will not work." Louis said. He lost his son not long ago, and Edwards' illusions had no effect on him.

Clayton's yellow eyes turned and looked at Donna quietly.

"The things that made me painful and regretful" he murmured and sighed.

"Your failure is not in vain. At least we know that Edwards is a member of the Witch Association." Louis held Clara high up. Her newly grown hands and the arthropod legs that occupied the chest position were all hanging down, looking like a weird big crab.

After being dismembered once, the priest's tone became more and more stern, and he had fewer taboos about demons:

"Now, you need her as the key to the attack, let her arouse the fire of the soul to burn those controlled by Edwards, which may save them."

Although demons are all invisible, their powers are also different.

The demons of different demon lords have different powers. The followers of Baal, the Lord of Power, are good at telekinesis and mental destruction, while the followers of Enat, the lustful demon god, are better at regulating emotions. In terms of direct material destructive power, Clara is actually more powerful than Edwards's servants.

"No!" Basham raised his hand: "Her power must be used completely on Edwards, and there must not be any loss before that."

He was burned once and saw how destructive Clara was in the black fog. It is not difficult to defeat those evil creatures and the civilians of this country, but they really need to deal with only Edwards, so they should keep this trump card and attack only at the right time.

Clayton opened his mouth and rolled his throat in a low voice: "Edwards has seen her, he should know her ability."

"But Edwards will not know whose family she is from. Humans cannot judge the type of demons by contact, and his familiars cannot tell him this." Louise said affirmatively: "In order to improve compatibility, it is also easy to control. The familiars of all disciples of the Witch Demon Society are their own children. These disciples summoned demons to possess them when their children were still young. Therefore, these familiars do not have the common sense of demons and have low intelligence, just like Clara."

"Clara is smarter than that cat." Clara said unconvinced in his hand. Louise ignored her, so she was twisted several times by her novice hands.

Donna raised her hand: "Wait a minute, but his familiar is in the body of the thief worm, right? That is obviously not a human, how can it be his child?"

"No matter what species the familiar is, it must be his child. The characteristic of the witches and demons is to carry out unethical reproductive behavior with the help of demons." Louis said: "It is not surprising that a person from the witches and demons gave birth to a horse. There is such a record in our classics."

Clayton and Basham looked at each other.

"Then let Clara burn something, I will go to the first floor with them, at least we have to deal with some people first."

Bassam wanted to refuse, but the two girls made it clear that they were unwilling to obey his command, so he had to let them go.

"Don't forget our agreement." He finally said to Clayton.
