Chapter 261 - Only The Devil Is Scarier Than The Demon

Evan was surprised by this sudden attack, which was aimed not at him but the only surviving girl. He quickly jumped aside and looked at the place the dagger came out of.

Among the trees stood a tall girl with long blue hair and bright amber eyes. She was dressed in a noble vest of rare beast skin and a silk shirt. The girl walked in low-heeled shoes and had a short dagger in her hand. She looked graceful and incredibly seductive. She had an ample bosom and correct curves in all eye-catching places. This was Cloena Carnicero, and she was also a member of Azure Bridge.

Evan used Mammon's Gaze and frowned, this girl's appearance was clearly not part of his plan.

Cloena Carnicero

Race - Mage

Stage - Two-Pointed Star, zero flames on the platform

Warp - Purple

Evan was strong, but he wasn't sure he could handle such an opponent without getting seriously wounded. The mages in the - Two-Pointed Star stage were much stronger than the mages in the - One-Pointed Star stage. The gap between them was incredible. It was a whole different level.

"Why did you kill her? Aren't you comrades?

" Evan asked coldly.

"I don't know what she was going to tell you, but that means she's a traitor. I just took pity on her and gave her a quick and painless death. Now it's your turn!

" Cloena said loudly, and suddenly there were many magical circles in the air.

He didn't expect to be fighting one-on-one with a Summoner.

Whooosh.

Out of the magical circles flew many of the identical daggers she had killed the girl with. She could easily control them and summon them several times more. She was about to turn Evan's body into a colander.

Evan's

"Warp

" swirled, and a large bloody jaw appeared beside it. But, it did not pounce on the daggers flying at Evan, the jaw began to devour the bodies lying beside him.

He wanted to strengthen the jaws first before he used them against Cloena.

Bam. Bam. Bam.

Evan fought off several daggers, but two daggers stabbed into his chest and leg. They weren't fatal wounds, but they were bleeding fast enough that Evan urgently needed to fix them.

He pulled the daggers out sharply and drank one of the three blood recovery potions Virion had given him. Next, Evan coated his fingers with his blood, touched the black chains, and poured mana into them. This activated the Scarlet Sacrifice's unique ability, and the armor went into berserk mode.

Evan felt sharp needles sticking out of his armor in some places, piercing his skin. They sucked his blood like a vampire. Excluding the effects of the blood recovery potion, Evan had about five minutes to deal with Cloena.

"Wow, your armor is really nice, I want to get it for myself.

" Said Cloena and cast a few more spells.

Many daggers flew toward Evan, but now he was fast enough to dodge every one of them. As his armor went into berserk mode, scarlet energy began to emanate from Evan's body, and his attack power and speed increased significantly.

A magic circle appeared next to Cloena from which a three meter tall skeleton emerged. He was dressed in black armor and had a flaming sword in his hands. Despite its appearance and heavy armor, it was quite fast. The skeleton lunged toward Evan and swiftly struck him.

Evan blocked this attack, and Reykar quickly shot a beam at the skeleton, but the monster took no damage at all.

Evan thought, and with difficulty, stepped aside.

But, about ten daggers immediately flew at him. Evan put the scythe in front of him and started spinning it with great speed, thus creating something like a shield. In this way, he was able to fend off each dagger.

The skeleton pounced on Evan again, but a huge, bloody jaw blocked his path. It violently began to bite the skeleton, destroying parts of its armor.

Evan looked at Cloena coldly. He wasn't going to run away, he wanted to kill her right here and now.

Before leaving, Evan decided to prepare for a situation like this, so he had several demon sigils drawn on his back.

Evan quietly said,

"Sigil 72nd Demon - Count Andromalius, third level, activation!

"

He decided that such power would be enough. To get help from this demon by using a third level sigil, Evan would only have to spend three years of his life. That was a pretty small price to pay.

The next moment, more demonic energy began to emanate from Evan's body, and a curved dagger with a golden snake shaped guard appeared in his hands.

Evan lunged toward Cloena and instantly attacked her. She was ready for Evan's blow and tried to block his attack, but Evan suddenly turned and lightly grazed her with the tip of the dagger.

"Boy, maybe you should wear glasses. You barely hit me.

" Cloena grinned, looking at the small scratch on her arm.

The next moment, however, she saw a multitude of blisters appear on her skin. Blood trickled from her mouth, Cloena realized that Evan had poisoned her.

"You bitch!

" Shouted Cloena and used the spatial ring. She wanted to drink the potion and neutralize the poison, but Evan wasn't going to let her do that.

He sprinkled the dagger with his blood, and the blade of the weapon glowed purple. Evan looked at Cloena with icy eyes and swung the dagger vertically without emotion.

The poisonous wave fell upon Cloena, and her entire body was covered in a hazardous poison. Only a Summoner who knew very rare healing spells could save her in such a situation.

She fell to the ground and didn't even have time to utter a word.

"Shit! Why the ** did she show up here. Now I won't be able to get any information from the members of Azure Bridge, I'm out of luck once again.

" Mumbled Evan looking at the corpses beside him.

Reykar returned to Evan's Nirvana. He was about to walk, but suddenly Evan realized something.

Tremble.

At the exact moment, Evan felt a terrible pressure come over him. He looked up and saw a girl riding some kind of lizard flying toward him.

She looked coldly at the corpses beside Evan, then her icy gaze went to Evan. She was one of Azure Bridge's commanders, and she quickly realized that Evan had done it all.

Evan cast Ghost Step and, at top speed, tried to run as far away as he could. But he couldn't escape the sight of this girl.

Her Warp spun, and a spear of light appeared in her hands. It was so bright it seemed capable of banishing all darkness from the world.

The girl threw the spear toward Evan. Its speed was nearly the speed of sound, and it approached Evan in a fraction of a second.

But, there was no explosion.

Evan turned around and saw a tall man in a red robe with an ebony design standing with his back to him. He stopped the spear of light simply by grabbing it with his hand.

"I finally found you, so you were the source of that energy.

" Smirking, Rave said.

Upon seeing Rave, the girl's face turned pale. Fear appeared in her eyes, and already she tried to run away from the battlefield as quickly as possible, but Rave had a different opinion on the matter.

He destroyed the spear of light and quickly cast a spell. Giant streams of mana rushed toward his Warp. It was like an entire bottomless ocean. This alone made Evan feel an indescribable pressure.

Dark energy appeared in Rave's left hand, which quickly transformed into a dark spear. Rave threw the dark spear toward the girl, the speed of the spear instantly exceeding the speed of sound.

Booom.

In less than a tenth of a second, the spear reached the girl like black lightning, and there was a terrifying explosion. It was like an atomic bomb, easily capable of destroying an entire village.

Fixing his glasses, Rave turned to Evan and said,

"Well, hello, Evan Lynch.
