After getting rid of the guards in a few moves, Li Dou and Kikyo stopped sneaking in because the people on the other side had also arrived.
A middle-aged man in a purple robe walked over with a few people dressed in the same way.
"Sir, why did you barge into my residence?”
When he spoke, his facial muscles were extremely stiff, like a zombie or a living dead. His tone did not fluctuate at all, just like a machine, making people feel the urge to blow his head off.
Li Dou said lightly,"
"My sister is missing. I suspect that the human trafficker is here.”
The purple-robed middle-aged man remained unmoved, still like a machine."You are wrong. Your sister is not here. Please find another place."
At this moment, Kikyo walked to the side of Pear Dou and said softly,""This person has a demonic aura."
Since the professional had spoken, Pear Dou naturally trusted him unconditionally. His words were now more righteous.
"What if my suspicion is with you?”
"You're courting death."
The murderous words that came out of his mouth were like a machine intermittently saying things like the weather was good, hello, and so on. His eyes seemed to have lost control, sometimes turning inward, sometimes turning outward. The muscles on his face were also sometimes squeezed together, rolled into a ball, and suddenly opened, like a ghost face.
It was as if the robot had lost control.
However, although his face was out of control, his body was unusually agile. His fingers quickly took out a few pieces of talisman paper from his pocket and threw it at Pear Dou. With quick reflexes, Platycorp pulled out the arrow from its quiver. Not long after crossing the river, it hit the middle of the river and pierced through the talisman paper before it scattered.
"Oh, witch, very strong spiritual power.”
Without saying a word, Platyflower continued to pull out the arrow from the quiver and shot an arrow filled with spiritual power at the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man's expression did not change. He casually pulled over a subordinate beside him and blocked in front of him. Taking advantage of this time gap, he took out another talisman from his pocket.
The follower was struck by the arrow with a dumbfounded expression and was thrown away by the middle-aged man.
The talisman seemed to be controlled by a pair of invisible hands, landing at the pentagonal area around Kikyo and Pear Dou. The chains shot out from the talisman the moment it landed, intertwining with each other.
"This is a barrier."
Kikyo recognized him at a glance.
"Looks like we've been trapped. Kikyo, you're not experienced enough.”Pear Dou, who had just paddled the entire time and did nothing, looked at Kikyo with a smile.
"It's not your turn to lecture me," Kikyo said coldly.”
Her personality was cold on the outside but warm on the inside, but there was always a stubbornness in her. At this moment, being looked down upon by the person he liked, he was somewhat embarrassed and angry. Platycorp drew an arrow from its quiver. Its anger and shame drove the powerful spiritual power in its body. With just one arrow, it broke the barrier.
The barrier dissipated like sand.
After learning from his previous experience, he would definitely not wait for two hits if he could make a move. He shot out continuously like a string of arrows, hitting the middle-aged man's shoulder. A powerful spiritual energy erupted, purifying the demonic qi on the middle-aged man's body.
At this moment, his expression did not change. He cut off his arm cleanly and decisively, and a large amount of blood spurted out.
"Looks like this body is crippled.”
He muttered to himself. He then looked at Li Dou and Kikyo.
"Let me give you a compliment. You're already very powerful at such a young age.”
"However, I can't let you take away the seat. The City Lord can't just decline like this.”
Sitting Shiki Boy!
So that's how it was. Did Ryoko become a Zashiki Boy? After coming to this world, Pear Dou had to catch up on his knowledge of monsters.
It was said that as long as there was a Zashiki Boy, the family would prosper. If you saw familiar faces among your playmates, but you always felt that there was one more person than when you first started, it was most likely his doing. Zashiki Boy was a very honest monster whose figure could only be seen by children. Because of this, there were often selfish families who would hire mages with high magic power to trap them with barriers and control their freedom.
That was why this man had captured Ryoko, just to trap her so that her existence could flourish in this city that was clearly in decline.
It seemed that Ryoko had coincidentally become a demon after her death.
As for why medicinal herbs kept appearing in Flower Lady's house, it was probably because this kind little fellow had been thinking about her sick sister at home and kept picking herbs from the mountains.
However, why would Ryoko's tracks be discovered by this mage? Pear Dou suspected that there might be his spies on that mountain.
