Chapter 2758 Chloe's Magic

The red-haired sorceress who was waiting for Shade at the wellhead turned to look at the burning mansion. Although she saw the fire, she had no intention of putting out the fire because she had promised to wait for Shade here.

Suddenly, a fiery red light flew from the top of the building to the night sky. Miss Danister, who was well prepared, raised her hand and chopped out a moonlight:

"Moonlight Slash!"

The scarlet moonlight collided head-on with the firelight in the night sky. In the not-so-loud explosion, the figure in the firelight tilted and fell to the north of Hoy Manor.

"Chase it, it seems that thing ignited the fire."

The red-haired sorceress said to Shade behind her, and the two chased after the falling firelight together.

Hoy Manor was originally located at the northernmost end of the city. Leaving the manor and continuing northward directly left the urban area and entered the forest area. But it was not difficult to track the falling firelight, because it left a faint red mark in the night sky.

The flames fell into the forest with a loud bang, and a raging fire started in the forest before the two arrived at the falling location. The forest in autumn is very easy to ignite. From the sky, the fire is spreading rapidly around the place where the flames fell.

The center of the sea of ​​fire has been blown flat by the falling of the flames, and the fallen trees are burning rapidly. In the big pit in the middle of the open space, the moonlight split the sea of ​​fire while the red claws crawled out of the ground, and Miss Shade and Miss Danister also rushed over.

"Is this the devil?"

I saw that what crawled out of the deep pit was a hideous monster about three meters tall, roughly in human form, but actually made entirely of flames. It was not standing on the ground, but floating almost close to the ground.

The flames on its body were black and red, and the flames on its left hand were thicker than those on its right hand, roughly in the shape of a beast's claws. The flames that made up the right hand were in the shape of a human hand, but as the flames flowed, a whip was taking shape.

As for its head, there was a hollow in the flames, and two round holes and the crescent moon formed the shape of eyes and mouth.

Shad blinked, and the color of the thing in front of him in the vision of the "Visual Demon" turned into the deepest black with malicious intent:

"It does look like a demon, but why."

The flame whip swished through the sea of ​​fire and came to the front, hitting the ink-colored shield of the "Night Seal" and causing layers of ripples.

The seal disappeared immediately, and Shad pulled Miss Danister's hand and appeared ten meters to the left. The fire in the surrounding forest illuminated their faces, and Shade put his hand into his pocket:

"No matter what, let's deal with it first. I'll do it myself, and you'll be responsible for preventing it from escaping. Can you temporarily seal this open space?"

The red-haired girl looked up at the moon in the night sky dyed red by the fire:

"No problem, be careful."

The [Demon Seal] was worn on the finger of Shade's left hand, and as the monster made of black flames howled "Demon Hunter!", the surrounding sea of ​​fire exploded, and several flame tornadoes formed in the sea of ​​fire and gathered towards the central open space, but were immediately dispersed by Miss Danister.

Shade entrusted the formula of the exorcism potion given by the doctor to Miss Bell, who was still preparing it, so he took out the bottle of No. 3 holy water and the bottle of moonlight water. But the demon would not watch Shade cast a spell. The flames from under his body made it leap into the sky, and then he raised his left hand claws and pounced on Shade's position with a bang~.

But it did not hit Shade. When the black flames that melted the earth gathered again to become a demon, it turned back and saw the two liquids in Shade's hands intertwined with each other, forming a liquid long sword in his right hand. In Shade's left hand, the small witch ice doll had been stained with light by the spirit.

The complete life ring of the eight rings appeared behind him, and the aura of the miracle [Echo] spirit rune bloomed with an unparalleled golden light, and the small ice doll also turned into an ice-blue light and climbed onto Shade's body.

"Chloe's Ice Echo!"

As the life ring rotated, the rustling sound of freezing became louder and louder as the long sword in his hand froze. At the same time, Miss Danister, who was casting a spell outside the clearing to stop the flames from rushing towards the clearing, looked up and saw the falling snow in the night sky:

"Is it the power of the witch emperor again?"

But this time was obviously different from the last time, because when the heavy snow appeared above the fire, she actually heard a sigh from a strange woman who appeared in her ear.

The sigh seemed to make her see a melancholy silver-haired girl looking at the moon on the ice field surrounded by mountains. At this moment, the cold wind was howling in the forest. This time, the coldness was heartbreaking and more real than the last time.

Even the surrounding sea of ​​fire was suppressed by this magic. In the heavy snow, when she turned her head to look at Shade, she saw that as the long sword in his hand was completely solidified, the ice-blue transparent figure behind him hugged his neck with both hands, and then the strange girl put her head on his left shoulder.

Chloe's phantom hugged Shade tightly from behind. The little girl put her side face against Shade's side face intimately, and her face with closed eyes was peaceful and gentle.

And Shade, who used this magic for the first time, also got a hint from "her":

[During the magic, any attack released by the spirit will have the effect of ice attack. 】

"Moonlight Greatsword!"

The index finger and middle finger of the left hand wearing the "Demon Hunting Seal" were pressed together and pressed on the end of the frozen long sword.

As his fingers traced across the sword, the bright silver moonlight gradually enveloped the entire long sword. Finally, after the silver rune chain outlined by the light formed on the surface of the ice sword, the silver sword body completely wrapped the ice sword.

The power of ice, silver moon and [Demon Hunting Seal] were completely concentrated on this brand new weapon. Shade, embraced by the ice blue phantom, jumped up, and the moonlight splitting from the sky was already attached to it. There was a deep chill.

The flaming demon raised his arms and caught the moonlight from the front. After the arc-shaped moonlight was in a stalemate with it for a second, as the flames in the demon's arms were suppressed by the ice, the moonlight cut off the two flames. It hit its head directly.

"roar!"

The black flames spat out from the demon's mouth shattered the moonlight, but at this time Shade's figure had already arrived in front of it through "Raglai's Leap", and the moonlight sword pierced the demon's chest, and opened The white frost breath came out of his mouth, making the devil's body shrink in size.

After the flames on both arms were extinguished, what was revealed inside was the withered arm of a human mummy, but if you look more closely, it is clear that it is a piece of wood made to look like a human arm. The pair of arms that seemed to break at the slightest touch pinched Shade's neck, and the ice-blue phantom behind Shade also opened its eyes at this time.

Those eyes were not Chloe's golden eyes, but ice blue. At the same time that Shade's spirit disappeared without warning, wherever Chloe's phantom eyes could see, the demon's arms were directly exploded into ice powder, and the flames all over its body were once again destroyed. Suppressed, even the wooden mummy wrapped in black fire can be vaguely seen.

Shade held the sword in his right hand and raised it sharply, and the suppressed flames on the demon's body were divided into two parts. The demon still wanted to make a death struggle, and the mouth of the split burning head opened, and another black fireball was directed at Shade's face.

But immediately Shade also exhaled cold air, and with the opening of the eyes of Chloe's phantom on the left side of his shoulder, the fireball extinguished in the air, and then Shade's ring-wearing palm directly pressed on the demon's head:

"Shadow ball!"

The darkness emerging from his hands immediately began to petrify the wood carved into a human skull beneath the flames. At the same time, the chill completely extinguished the flames of the demon's head as the darkness spread.

But the sound of "dong dong dong" suddenly sounded in the demon's chest. Miss Danister, who had been paying attention to the battle here, immediately reminded loudly:

"It's going to blow itself up!"

Flame enemies seemed to like to self-destruct. Shade, who had been prepared for a long time, immediately penetrated the beating heart of the demon's chest with the sword in his right hand. But this did not stop the thumping heartbeat sound, but instead caused the flames in the demon's body to expand even more violently.

Shade immediately jumped back, using space to jump to avoid the power of the subsequent self-destruction. The red-haired girl came forward, and with a wave of her hands, the red moonlight enveloped the expanding flame.

So the demon exploded in the red moon. Although Miss Danister's face turned pale, she still managed to completely suppress the power of its self-destruction - this is also related to the fact that Shade's last sword greatly weakened its power:

"If the enemy wants to self-destruct, the best solution is not to hit it again, but to avoid or defend it immediately."

The eighteen-year-old girl who pinched her waist with one hand did not forget to "teach" Sha De, but what she looked at was not Sha De's face, but the ice blue phantom behind him.

"Yes yes, I know."

Shade had no choice but to say this. He did not cancel the spell, but quickly walked towards the location where the demon exploded. In the pit of the explosion, the brilliance of the red moon has not dissipated, and a small black flame is dancing at the bottom of the pit.

Shade then rummaged through his pocket and found the old lantern from the [Sin Mansion] that could hold fire, and filled it with the black flame.

The forest fire had not yet been extinguished, and Miss Danister's long shadow fell next to Shade in the pit. She did not feel relieved:

"I still don't understand. Has that demon been eliminated by us? I don't have as much experience in hunting demons as you, but from a common sense point of view, this matter shouldn't be that simple, right?"

Shade took off the ring on his hand and hung it on the lantern, and the black flames were immediately suppressed until they were almost invisible:

"Let's put out the fire here first. I think this fire is going to get out of control. As for whether it's too simple, sometimes it's better to be simple."
