Chapter VII
It had been seventeen days since Count Dracula had disappeared from the Demon City. The Demon City that was entrenched on top of Mark Webb's mountain was still firmly sealed by the seal made by the four Godly Beasts.
The castle that towered into the clouds was completely surrounded by a ball of light. Not even a bug could fly in. Inside the castle, a large number of demons were using their special abilities to attack the light screen with all their might, hoping to break out of the seal as soon as possible.
Some snow maidens were attacking the seal at the city gate with freezing magic, while a large number of hellhounds were scattered on the city wall, spraying flames at the light screen. The half-human half-fish fish demons were responsible for the seal at the sewers, and their water arrows were constantly shooting at the light screen. In the Space Garden, a large group of winged armored soldiers were stabbing the seal above their heads with spears.
The other witches, demons, skeleton soldiers, and even the prisoners in the city joined in the battle. They took out their magic treasures and attacked the light screen from every corner of the city.
Fireballs, water bombs, icicles, lightning strikes, and even powerful tornadoes were everywhere in the city. These powerful attacks did not have much effect on removing the seal. Instead, they caused the centuries-old demon city to become a mess, and the walls shook.
Luo Lan, who was standing on the pathway leading to the penthouse on the top of the city, looked at the large group of demons that were like headless flies. Not only did their frenzied attacks not cause the seal to disintegrate at all, but they also looked like a demolition team that wanted to forcefully demolish the castle.
If this continued, the Demon City would be destroyed by these bastards. He had to stop them as soon as possible. Having made up his mind, Luo Lan ran straight to the main hall of the penthouse.
Georgianib was using his scythe to hack at the light screen at the entrance of the hall. Luo Lan ran forward and grabbed the long handle of Georgianib's scythe."George Nibbs, please stop. I have something to say.”
"If you have anything to say, say it later. Don't hinder me.”Impatiently, he pushed Luo Lan away and swung his sword again.
"Stop it! If you don't stop, when the Earl comes back, his house will be reduced to ruins.”Luo Lan shouted anxiously.
"What do you mean?" Georgianib stopped his knife and asked.
Luo Lan pulled him to the side of the penthouse.""Look, this large group of people has made the city more lively than the fireworks during the king's celebration. Look at the smoke and feel the shaking of the castle. If they don't stop, I think it won't be long before the city collapses.”
Georgianib looked at Rolan's fuss with a disapproving expression and said,""Tsk, I thought it was a big deal. This castle was passed down in the master's family. After that, the master had renovated and strengthened it many times. Under the supervision of the master, this castle was basically sturdy and durable.”
"I know that you have always believed in your master's ability, even to the point of blind worship. However, the Earl is not an architect. He thinks that it is strong, but it doesn't mean that it is unbreakable. Moreover, with such a large group of people wreaking havoc everywhere in the city, even the impregnable castle could not withstand their torment!”Luo Lan said anxiously.
" Stop trying to scare us." Georgiani ignored Luo Lan and continued his work.
At this moment, a loud noise came from the hanging tower hall. The two of them turned their heads to look inside. It turned out that the huge portrait of the earl hanging in the hall could not withstand the violent vibration and fell from the wall.
"Look, the portrait has fallen. Why aren't you stopping?”Luo Lan said.
"If the portrait is dropped, you can pick it up and hang it up again. However, the master is missing, so it's not that simple. Do you know how many days the master has been missing? It had been a full seventeen days. He had never disappeared for so long without any explanation. Moreover, he was injured. Something big must have happened. Do you know how anxious I was? "I can't wait to fly out and find him. If it wasn't for this annoying seal, I would have found my master long ago. Get out of my way and don't get in my way." The anxious Georgianib grabbed Luo Lan's collar hysterically and glared at Luo Lan with his two black holes.
At this moment, the strange old man from the library, Wen Jing, had also arrived at the penthouse. When he arrived at the entrance of the main hall, he saw Georgianib dragging Luo Lan and speaking fiercely. Hence, he flew over and kicked Georgianib's butt.
"You brat, are you trying to tear down the palace that Master painstakingly built? Hurry up and tell those good-for-nothings below to stop.”
Georgianib covered his butt and turned his head, wanting to fly into a rage. However, he realized that it was the strange old man, Wen Jing. This strange old man had served the Earl for several generations. He could be said to be the elder of three dynasties. Even the current Earl respected him as an elder. He could not afford to offend this man.
"Ah, Old Master, why aren't you staying in the library? What are you doing here?”said Georgianib respectfully.
"Library? The bookshelves of my library were all knocked over by you bastards. The books were all flipped over the ground. If I didn't come, the entire library would have been destroyed by you.”
When Wen Jing said that, he gave George Nib a knock on his head. "Hurry up and tell everyone to stop." The strange old man gave his order.
" But, but," Georgiani didn't dare to dodge and could only cover his head with his hands.
"But what? You bunch of trash spent a few days and still couldn't break a little girl's seal. Do you think it'll be useful if you continue? Stop right now." Wen Jing began to roar.
" Ah, yes, I know." Georgianib held his head with one hand and covered his butt with the other. He circulated his spiritual power and said loudly to everyone in the city,""Everyone, listen up. Stop and wait for orders.”
These monsters obeyed Georgianib's orders completely. They immediately stopped attacking and looked at each other. Then, they shrugged as if they didn't understand why the God of Death suddenly asked them to stop.
"Old man, I've already done as you instructed. What do you think?”Georgianib said with a big smile.
"That's more like it. Next time, don't be brainless and do something that is thankless.”Wen Jing said with satisfaction.
"But what about this barrier? How should we break the seal?”George Nibbs asked Wen Jing.
But Wen Jing said,"How would I know? These things are your responsibility as the head guard!" Hurry up and think of a way to solve this for me."
" Well," Georgiani thought for a moment and said," Alright, in that case, I'll have to use this trick."”After he finished speaking, two black wings appeared from the back of his black robe.
He spread out his black wings, which were as long as two people, and waved them hard. The strong wind almost blew the strange old man down. "I'm going to use my feather clone to attack.”said Georgianib, flying into the air.
Luo Lan hurriedly whipped out his whip and wrapped it around his leg, saying loudly,""Hei Yu's clone will consume a large amount of your spiritual energy and physical strength. If you are not proficient in using it, it will endanger your life. Even if you are lucky enough to be fine, it will take several years to recover your strength after using the clone technique. Don't use it unless it's absolutely necessary!”
George Nibbly broke free from Rololan's whip and continued to fly upwards. He didn't forget to lower his head and say,""Now that the situation is so urgent, we can't care too much. As long as we can rush out and find Master. Even if I have to lose my magic power forever, I am willing to do so.”
Georgianib flapped his wings high up in the sky and dropped many black feathers. Then, these black feathers all transformed into the Grim Reaper. They flew towards the barrier that surrounded the top of the city, and together with their original bodies, they released a dazzling ball of light that attacked the seal.
In the sky, dozens of Georgianibs activated their magic power and shouted loudly. "Ah-ah..." The black wings flapped up and down, and the black robes billowed in the wind. All the demons in the Demon City looked at their guard captain, who was as heroic as a god who had descended to the mortal world. They all burst into enthusiastic applause and deafening screams. The entire Demon City was in an uproar.
In contrast to the noisy and chaotic situation in Demon City, the quiet and comfortable life in the small clinic was the complete opposite.
Dean was lying on the bed with his back against the headboard, leisurely enjoying the peeled apple that Skally had personally fed him. The sweet and juicy apple was personally fed by such a charming girl. Dean felt the sweetness from his mouth to his heart. He could not help but recall the scene when he had just woken up from his coma.
That day, when he slowly woke up from his stupor, the first thing he heard was Scarlet crying in his ear. "Dean, wake up! Dean, wake up! Please open your eyes and look at me. I'm Carrie.”
She kept sobbing." S-Sorry, it's all my willfulness and self-righteousness that harmed you. If I had listened to you earlier or didn't leave the Demon Hunters Association and pretend to be some damn gold-medal assassin, you wouldn't have suffered such serious injuries. It's all my fault. Dean, you should get better soon. If you can wake up, I'll do anything you want. Dean…" The more she cried, the sadder she became. She laid on Dean's body and cried loudly.
"You have to keep your word." Dean couldn't bear to hear Scarlet cry. He forced his eyes open.
When Skally, who was crying, heard his voice, she hurriedly raised her head and met Dean's green eyes. She saw him smiling at her. His slender eyebrows were curved, and his round and full lips were slightly curled up. Although his face was very pale, it did not affect his handsome appearance at all.
I had never noticed that he was so good-looking, especially his eyes. They were simply mesmerizing. Moreover, I seemed to have seen those eyes somewhere before. Scarlet tried hard to think.
Why couldn't he remember? Anyway, this pair of beautiful eyes was right in front of him. What was the point of thinking so much?
After looking at Dean for so long, Skally suddenly realized that he had woken up."Ah, ah, you, you, Dean, you, ahaha.。。。。。”
Scarlet was so happy that she was incoherent. The tears on her face had not dried yet, but she broke into a smile. As she smiled, she buried her head in Dean's shoulder and said with tears and snot,"You, why did you sleep for so long? Do you know that I've been waiting for you for more than ten days? I was so worried that you wouldn't wake up. You, you were so worried that I was going to die.。。。。。”
Dean let Skally cry on his shoulder and wiped her tears and snot on his clothes. He didn't expect her to care so much about him. He felt his chest heat up.
He raised a hand and gently comforted her,""I'm sorry for making you worry, but I'm fine now. Look, I'm fine by your side, right?”
Scarlet raised her head. Tears were still swirling in her blue eyes. Her entire pair of big eyes were swollen, and her nose was red.
Dean wiped away her tears with his hand and said,"Alright, silly girl, don't cry. I'm fine now.”
"You're fine, but I'm not." As if she had thought of something, Skally suddenly put on a stern face and questioned Dean."You, why didn't you let Dr. Luther save you first? Your injury was obviously much more serious than mine, but you still insisted on holding on. The doctor told me that you were very seriously injured and only had one breath left. You didn't let him save you first. You, you don't cherish yourself too much. Or do you want me to feel guilty for the rest of my life?”
"I-I did this because I was worried about you.”Dean said guiltily as he looked at the serious face of Scarlet.
"What do I have to worry about?" "I'm a gold-medal killer," said Scarley, raising her voice.。。。。。”
Dean could not help but laugh out loud."Gold-ranked assassin? Aha, aha, oh my god, aha...。。。。Ah, aiyo." Dean had no choice but to hold back his laughter after accidentally touching his wound. However, he could not help but laugh out loud after holding it in for a while. He had no choice but to cover his wound with one hand and cover his mouth with the other.
This made Scarlet, who was beside him, puzzled. He reached out and touched Di's forehead, saying,"What are you laughing at? What's so funny? Do you have a fever?”
"Ah, hehe, huhu, it's nothing. I just remembered that when I was unconscious just now, someone seemed to have said that they were pretending to be a gold-medal assassin or something.”Dean looked at her with an evil smile.
Scarlet was stunned for a moment before she suddenly reacted. However, in order to hide her guilty conscience, she decided to strike first. She blushed and pretended to be angry as she said,"Ah, so you woke up a long time ago, but you deliberately didn't open your eyes to make me worry. You even eavesdropped on my conversation. Apologize to me quickly.”
"Wow, Miss, it's really a waste for you not to be an official. You're simply a model of reversing right and wrong and bullying the weak. You were the one who fell on me and said it loudly for me to hear. How did it become me eavesdropping?”
Scarlet stood up." How am I bullying the weak? Your magic power is much stronger than mine. How am I bullying you?”She glared at Dean.
"Okay, okay, okay. You didn't. Then you said that as long as I open my eyes, you'll do anything, right?”Dean said helplessly.
"When did I say that?" You must have heard wrongly. I didn't say that.”
" Ah, you-you!" Dean looked at the scoundrel Scarrie and had nothing to say. He had an idea and pretended to be sick.
He covered his wound with both hands and shouted with an exaggerated expression,"Ah, it hurts, it hurts."
This scared Scarley. She quickly leaned over and asked with concern,"Ah, Dean, what's wrong? Is your wound hurting again? I'm sorry. I shouldn't have angered you. It wasn't easy for you to wake up.”At the same time, he did not forget to gently caress Dean's wound.
"It's fine if you don't want me to be excited. Tell me about pretending to be a gold-medal assassin.”Dean took the opportunity to grab Scali's hand and put it on his chest.
"This…" Skally looked at Dean with a troubled expression. "Ah, it's happening again. It hurts so much.。。。。。”Dean used the same trick again.
"Alright, alright, I'll tell you. Let go of me first!”Although Skally felt that Dean was pretending to be sick, she still couldn't bear to see him in pain. After all, he had just woken up and his face was still very pale.
"No, just say it." This time, it was Dean's turn to act shamelessly.
" Sigh." Skally sighed and sat down beside Di."You already knew that I'm from the Demon Hunters Association?”
Dean nodded. "But you might not know that the Demon Hunters Association has been established for several thousand years.”
"Wow, it has been around for so long!”Di exclaimed.
" Yes, the reason why the Demon Hunters Association was first established is said to be to kill the first generation vampire Cain. At that time, the Archangel Michael, under the orders of the Lord God, passed the method and tools to kill vampires to the founder of the Demon Hunters Association, Lord Saint John.”Scarlet recalled the origin of the Demon Hunters Association that she had heard since she was young.
She tilted her head and thought for a moment." Oh, at the same time, the angel left behind the four sacred beasts and chose a young girl from the humans to be their master. This young girl would become the Guardian Saintess of the Demon Hunters Association, and her responsibility was to protect the safety of the Demon Hunters Association. Therefore, the Guardian Saintess 'defensive spiritual power and sealing barrier were the strongest.
Every Saintess could have an immortal body for 1,000 years. After 1,000 years, she would choose an heir to inherit her magic power. Only then could she put down her burden and live a normal life.”
"Then, then you, you can't be already, already a thousand years old, right?”Dean stammered.
"I'm not that old. She was only chosen by the previous Holy Maiden last year. I'm only eighteen.”Scarley explained anxiously," I was unwilling to stay in the Demon Hunters Association's headquarters as a guard. I wanted to prove that the Guardian Saintess could also be a Blood Hunter, so I snuck out. The only great vampire I knew was Dracula, so I decided to hunt him. I didn't expect to end up with you, and so many things happened.。。。。。”
Dean thought back to what Skally had said to him and could not help but mutter to himself,"That proves that we are fated.”
"Hmm? What fate?" Hearing Dean's inexplicable words, Scarlet stopped what she was doing and asked.
Dean put the fruit platter in her hand aside and held her hands tightly in his palm."You snuck out of the Demon Hunters Association and spent so much time and effort to find me. We've experienced so many things together.”
Hearing his words, Scarlet's cheeks flushed red. I went to hunt Dracula, and I didn't expect to meet a scoundrel like you.”Maria tried to pull her hand away, but Dean held on tightly.
"This shows that we are fated! It must have been God's arrangement that we were able to meet under those circumstances. So I won't let go. Also, I'm not a scoundrel. Have you ever seen such a handsome scoundrel?”
"If you aren't a scoundrel, then what are you? Your injuries are clearly healed, but you still want me to serve you every day. You even want me to feed you a fruit. Every time they mention that you want to go back to the Demon Hunters Association headquarters, you pretend to be uncomfortable. If it's not a leg pain, then your chest hurts.”said Scarley as she struggled free from Dean's big hand.
Dean put on a sincere expression and said,"I really haven't recovered yet. When I recover, I'll personally send you back to the Demon Hunters Association. I can't let you go alone.”
At the same time, there was a voice in Dean's heart that said crazily,"Actually, I can't bear to let you go. I really want to be with you." One more day was one more day. I like it when you feed me medicine and peel apples for me. I like it when you're angry at me and I like it when you act coquettishly to me. I like it when you're blushing and shy. I like you, I like you, I like everything about you. I want you to be with me forever. Even if I can't recover from my injuries for the rest of my life, I'm willing.”
Dean himself could not understand why he and Marilia had only been together for a short period of ten days. At first, they were still enemies, but he had fallen hopelessly in love with her. He could not help himself. Although she would probably hunt Dean down after she found out his true identity, he still fell headfirst into it. Sigh, if only Mother was still by my side now.
Although Dean looked like a 20-year-old boy, he had actually lived for more than 30 years. However, due to the blood kin genes in his body, he did not age as easily as humans. However, he was practically a blank sheet of paper when it came to his love life and dealing with emotional problems. This was because his mother was killed by his father with a sword before he even knew what love was. Other than forcing him to practice spiritual power and swordsmanship every day since he was young, that hateful demon had never taught him anything else.
Mother, please tell me what I should do. What can I do to keep her by my side? Dean searched for the answer in his heart over and over again.
"We should do this." Skally picked up a cup of hot water and splashed it on Dean's leg, who was lying on the bed in a daze.
"I should have done this a long time ago. He's talking to you, but you're still pretending to be stupid.”
"Ah, it's so hot, so hot." Dean was brought back to the real world by the heat of his legs. He jumped off the bed and kept stamping his feet. He hurriedly pulled up a corner of the bedsheet to wipe the water off his body.
"What the hell are you doing, Scarlet? Do you want to burn me to death?" Dean grumbled.
Skally looked at him and smiled."I'm just helping you heal your injuries. It seems that the effect is not bad! Just now, someone said that his injuries had not recovered and he could not walk. It seems that my medical skills have already surpassed Dr. Luther's?”
"Ah, it hurts so much. I must have pulled my wound from the movement just now.”Dean said with an exaggerated expression as he hugged one of his legs.
Scarley walked up to him and whispered in his ear,"Next time, before you pretend to be sick, first figure out which leg you injured. Don't mistake your leg again, idiot.”
After saying that, she did not forget to step on Dean's foot heavily. Then, she quickly walked out of the room and slammed the door shut. The door slammed shut tightly, leaving Dean, who was annoyed that he had made a mistake in his leg, still rubbing his foot that had been stepped on by Skally.。。。。。
