Chapitre 538: Chapter 536 Chat?
"Ha... Ha... Ha... Ha..."
In the dense forest, Meili ran as fast as she could, clutching the puppy-like Demon Beast in her arms.
Her sole purpose? It was simply to distance herself as quickly as possible from that immensely dangerous area.
"What... what was that?! What on earth...!"
Recalling the chilling and terrifying sight of the surroundings being cleaved in half right before her eyes, with a blade that nearly grazed her nose, fear was the only emotion Meili felt.
"Elsa never mentioned anything like this!"
For this period of time, Meili had been operating in secret, spending a considerable amount of time contacting Rem and casting Curse Techniques on her, all in order to eliminate Rem for good.
Meili was confident that with the extensive curses she had placed on Rem, there was no way she could be saved.
Next, people from Roswaal's mansion would surely send out teams to investigate the deaths of their servants.
And all Meili had to do was devise a plan to quietly cast Curse Techniques on these people, gradually wiping out everyone in Roswaal's mansion. Eventually, Roswaal himself would have no choice but to personally intervene.
At that point, Meili could seize the opportunity to infiltrate the mansion and assassinate Emilia.
Yes.
Meili's target was Emilia.
Just like Elsa, Meili had accepted a commission to come and execute the mission to Kill a Royal Selection candidate.
Although she didn't possess combat abilities as formidable as Elsa's, Meili had the power to manipulate Demon Beasts. Once she controlled them, the threat she posed would surpass even that of Elsa.
If not for fearing Roswaal and being warned about Fang Li by Elsa, Meili could have simply infiltrated Ram's village, quietly destroyed the barrier, brought in a large number of Demon Beasts to Roswaal's mansion, and carried out a raid to eliminate the target.
However, due to Fang Li and Roswaal's presence, Meili cautiously chose to execute her mission in this manner.
But just when Meili was convinced that Rem was as good as dead and that she only needed to follow her plan to complete the mission successfully, suddenly, Meili felt that all the techniques and spells she had set up within Rem's body were being nullified.
This shocked Meili, who without hesitation, fled into the forest with the puppy-like Demon Beast.
Meili was certain that since the mansion's residents had discovered the Curse Techniques and successfully dispelled them, they would undoubtedly come to investigate Ram's village next.
When that happened, with Rem's testimony, the likelihood of Meili being discovered would increase.
So, again, out of caution, Meili hid in the forest, always accompanied by the puppy Demon Beast, masking her aura and scent, waiting for another opportunity.
However, Meili hadn't expected that Fang Li would directly barge in with people and employ such terrifying methods to kill almost all the Demon Beasts she had controlled.
Not to mention, after finding the puppy Demon Beast, Fang Li immediately confirmed that she was nearby.
That look...
"It's like he saw through all my actions!"
Such terrifying power.
Such a terrifying intelligence.
Such terrifying methods.
Such a terrifying character.
Terrifying!
Terrifying!
Terrifying!
"I... I have to get out of here!"
Meili made up her mind.
So, Meili ran for her life, as if her life depended on it.
Unfortunately, while Meili's ability to control Demon Beasts was rare, her own strength couldn't match Elsa's. And even Elsa's speed was far inferior to Fang Li's. How could Meili possibly escape?
And with Rem's sense of smell and Ram's Clairvoyance...
"Where do you think you can run to?"
"————!"
The sudden words made Meili's heart tremble, and she quickly stopped in her tracks.
"Ugh...!"
The next moment, the puppy Demon Beast in Meili's arms once again assumed a threatening stance, baring its teeth towards the front.
"Snap..."
In front of her, a branch was forcefully snapped by a foot.
There stood Fang Li, who had appeared out of nowhere, looking at Meili with a glimmering dagger in hand, emanating a chilly light.
Behind him, Rem and Ram followed closely, one catching their breath while the other looked disheveled, clearly having exerted a lot of effort to keep up with Fang Li's pace.
"You...!"
Meili couldn't help but take a step back, her neck shrinking with fear.
To this, Fang Li only glanced at the puppy Demon Beast in her arms with a hint of regret and said, "If you had abandoned that dog and fled alone, masking your aura and scent as you did before, it might have taken some effort for us to find you. But it seems you're unwilling to part with this card, which allowed Rem and Ram to find you easily."
In other words, although Rem and Ram hadn't caught Meili's scent or seen her, they had sensed the aura and scent of the puppy she was carrying.
"That's your trump card, isn't it?" Fang Li spoke with a half-smile directed at Meili.
"By getting rid of that card of yours, will you obediently surrender?" This question went unanswered by Meili.
No.
It should be said that Meili no longer had the mood to answer.
A murderous Demon stood right before her, smiling at her.
There was nothing more terrifying than this.
Even though Meili was an assassin, it was still the same.
So, Meili issued a command loudly.
"Hurry up!"
With these words, Meili forcefully threw the puppy in her arms into the air.
"Clang——!"
The next moment, the puppy, thrown into the air, burst into a dazzling light, and its body suddenly began to expand.
Its cute appearance seemed to be torn apart, disappearing altogether.
Its small body gradually enlarged, becoming terrifying.
The puppy Demon Beast expanded like this, eventually transforming into a huge hellhound.
Its size was comparable to that of a building.
Watching the Demon Beast grow larger, Fang Li's eyes narrowed slightly, and he smiled suddenly.
"Boom——!"
With a loud sound of landing, Fang Li, riding the blast wave, turned into a stream of light and dashed toward the gigantic hellhound.
"Bark Bark Bark Bark Bark——!"
A loud roar erupted from the hellhound's mouth, shaking the air.
Facing the frenzied roaring giant dog, the blade light gradually brightened.
"Flashing Scabbard- Illusionary Prison Monk!"
Countless blade lights flashed simultaneously in mid-air, with dazzling arcs, instantly covering the giant Demon Dog.
"Puff Puff Puff Puff——!"
Innumerable blade lights stirred up countless slashes.
The gigantic Demon Beast was cut into pieces, silently sinking into a sea of blood.
Blood splattered before Meili.
"Thud..."
Meili's legs gave out, and she fell directly to the ground, her expression filled with horror.
"So..."
Fang Li stood before Meili, holding the dagger in his hand, and pointing it at the collapsed girl.
His ice-blue Mystic Eyes were cold and merciless.
"Now, shall we talk?"
