Whispering Verse

Shade nodded and placed the box on the windowsill. Even if it is a cherished extraordinary item, the devil's creation must not be kept, it needs to be destroyed.

"I can see that your desire is more than that. What else do you want?"

The old musician asked again, and Xia De thought for a while:

"What about power? Say something and people will do it."

The devil nodded and agreed with this view. He took off the golden buttons on his cuffs and handed them to Shade:

"Wear this on your body and go speak in public. People will be convinced of your opinion and follow you. Maybe you can start in the tavern."

"very nice."

Shade nodded again, and from the corner of his eye, he saw Dr. Schneider walking in from the door. The doctor was much faster than him, and at this time he had noticed who Shade was talking to.

"But your desires are still more than these. Tell me, young man, what do you want most?"

The devil continued to ask with a smile.

Shade raised his eyebrows and looked at the window next to him. The room was very lively, but Tobesk seemed very quiet in the dark night. He saw from the reflection that Dr. Schneider was very close, and that he would come over in about twenty steps. But at the same time, he seemed to see a blurry figure behind him flashing past:

"What I want most..."

Shade chuckled, scratched his head and gave the answer sheepishly:

"Of course pretty girl."

After hesitating, he added:

"A lot of pretty girls. I confessed my sins to a priest in Coldwater Port. I like a lot of pretty girls."

He said half-truthfully.

The devil showed an understanding expression:

"Yes, young people of your age always think so. It's very good. This desire is very good."

This time, it dug out its left eye and handed the eye with some sticky black liquid to Shade. The eye socket of one missing eye was bleeding, but everyone around him seemed not to have seen this scene:

"Put these eyes in your sockets, and any girl who looks into your eyes will fall in love with you."

The old musician who was missing one eye clapped his hands and looked very happy:

"In this way, your desires can come true."

But Shade didn't take the eyeball, rather disgusted with the blood on it:

"I didn't expect you would be satisfied just like this. Do you think this is all my desires?"

Shade asked with some dissatisfaction.

"Um?"

The ancient evil demon raised his head and looked at the young man in front of him in surprise. The only remaining eye was slightly narrowed, not caring about the strangeness in the other person's language, but instead exploring the truth of the other person's desire more carefully:

"Is there more to your desires than just that? Fun, greed, laziness, oh, and that horrible lust for gluttony."

The demon spreading desire looked at Shade inquiringly. He saw part of the truth, but soon noticed more things:

"what is that?"

It seemed to see another familiar shadow in the body of the young male human in front of it. With just a little thought, the ancient memory automatically completed the truth.

Shade thought it saw the First Fire, or even divinity, but the demon saw something he didn't expect.

A laughing woman’s head, a mermaid’s tail made of countless naked and white hands and feet, and an existence that has swallowed countless souls to the point where it is the incarnation of some extreme power——

"【desire】!"

The answer came out of his mouth. The unbelievable answer made the devil take two steps back. A look of panic appeared on the old musician's face, which was unimaginable for the devil:

"How could you have her power! A big sin!"

After saying that, he turned around and wanted to run, but bumped into another person head-on. With the power of the devil, it should have knocked away all the obstacles, but this time, it was knocked to the ground.

Shade supported it from behind, and Dr. Schneider, who came over with a cold face, reached out to hold its hand:

"I finally found you."

The middle-aged doctor with a faint red glow in his eyes whispered, his voice a little smooth:

"Where are you going to run to this time?"

As soon as the doctor's hand touched the old musician, the old musician seemed to have had all his strength drained from his body. If Shade hadn't been holding him up, he would have fallen to the ground immediately:

"you you......"

No one paid attention here, but the doctor's mouth, which was cracked in the palm, had already bitten the devil's arm. In the sucking sound that only Shade could hear, the demon's power was being rapidly absorbed by the doctor.

"Do you think this is the end?"

The old musician squeezed out the sound from his throat with difficulty, and with only one eye left, he looked at the doctor fiercely in the scarlet light:

"I am the demon of desire... multiplication. Do you think this is my only body?"

"I know, the other body is on the roof."

The doctor said softly, his expression not very serious:

"We're going to find it right away, you can't escape it."

"I know you are chasing me. Now, let me tell you a secret."

The old musician was helped by Sha De and came to the window. His eyes were fixed on the doctor:

"I have prepared a special gift for you, a sage-level relic. Once my body dies, another body will release the relic on the roof of the building. No one of you can even think about it..."

Dr. Schneider stretched out his hand to break its neck expressionlessly, and at the same time let go of his right hand:

"What's here is not the main body. It seems to be smarter than I thought. The main body is upstairs."

Shade looked at the old musician's body, which had been dead for a week, and placed it there, as if lying on the window sill looking at the night:

"A sage-level relic..."

He sighed softly, and a red light flashed in the doctor's eyes:

"Devil-contaminated corpses, if not dealt with in time, will become a breeding ground for other evil spirits. Once the matter is resolved, write a letter and tell the church. As for the relics..."

He looked up, as if he could look at the ancient evil through the floor:

"It's normal for an ancient evil demon to have some strange things in its hands. Let's go, detective, to the roof. It didn't escape, it's waiting for us."

The Royal Festival Hall has one underground level and four above-ground levels. Because there are summer open-air concerts on the roof of the concert hall every summer, the top floor should actually be five floors above ground.

After leaving the dressing room on the second floor, under the leadership of Dr. Schneider, they continued walking to the east, hoping to reach the top floor directly through the stairs. Taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, the doctor lowered his voice and said to Shade under the gas lamp on the stairs:

"The other party probably understands that I also use the power of demons, so it most likely arranged a relic that specifically restrains demons to deal with me. It is thought that it will decide what to do next after I and the relic work out the result. If possible, it will be necessary later Stop that relic."

Shade, who was holding the violin case, nodded slightly. Sage-level (level 2) relics should never be underestimated. The only sage-level relic he had encountered so far that fully demonstrated its power was the [Fishbone Pirate Ship]. But after all, the fishbone pirate ship is one of the more powerful among the sage-level relics. If it were a sage-level relic that was purely aimed at demons, Shade felt confident that he would try to stop it.

There are special stairs for the musicians to go up and down the floors for performances. The stairs for the guests that the doctor took Shade to take are rarely used by anyone to go up and down at will during the performance.

They walked on the red carpet towards the upper level. Although they were careful along the way, they did not encounter any relics that attacked them.

The door to the roof was locked with an iron chain, but that didn't stop the doctor from breaking the lock. After arriving at the top of the building, Victor Fannie, standing alone in the night, seemed to be waiting for them.

Snowflakes started to fall in the sky at some point, and the snow soon became heavier and heavier. The snow on the roof earlier this week had not melted completely. A series of obvious footprints extended from the stairs to the devil and back from the devil's feet. Apparently, someone had come before Shade and the doctor. Got here.

Because it was snowing, the weather was gloomy, and coupled with the thick gray fog, there were almost no stars in the sky, and even the moonlight was so hazy.

Bill Schneider stared at the demon under the moonlight, while Shade looked at the full-length gray angel standing in the shadows. The angel statue stands behind the devil, with its head lowered and its face covered with hands, as if crying.

[Outlander, you have been exposed to whispers and miracles. 】

"Is this a relic?"

Angel statues were actually quite common as decorations in this era. But the one in front of him has no sacred meaning whatsoever. On the contrary, just standing there makes people instinctively uneasy.

The whisper element is very terrifying, and this relic is probably the most dangerous type even among sage-level relics.

The doctor had no time to pay attention to the statue at this time. He looked at the demon in front of him and took a step forward:

"I'm surprised you didn't run away."

"I'm also surprised that someone like you exists."

Victor Fannie also looked at the doctor with a weird smile:

"I know you want to devour me, and I even know what you are. But it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. Your desire is equally delicious to me. You treat me as prey, and I treat you as prey."

The devil and the doctor who sealed the devil stood together in the snow. Behind the former was a statue of an angel, and behind the latter was a stranger carrying a violin case who inherited the witcher's equipment in the sixth era.

They both looked at each other until the demon pointed to the ground:

"Tonight, use this concert hall as a stage and a hunting ground. Let's give it a try and see who is the best hunter."

The demon took a step back, and the dead-like statue of the masked angel actually took the initiative to slide forward a step:

"Sage-level relic, Weeping Angel."

It smiled and said to the doctor:

"I know you are confident in dealing with me, but how are you going to deal with this relic?"
