162.Chapter 160 – Aleister’s Torture

Chapter 160 – Aleister’s Torture

There was a reason why Ivars’ first round of targets were aimed at York.

In fact, if you want to make a big deal out of it, it would be best to kill the Vice President of Boca. This is the most favorable means of planting evidence …… because there are really quite a few people who would kill such a lackluster lawyer as York, but the only one who wants to kill Boca is President Lloyd.

But Ivars was worried that this would instead help President Lloyd take over the Boca faction directly.

Conflicts would indeed be intensified – but as long as President Raohe’s heart was ruthless and decisive enough to directly admit his own heavenly flying pot to the sky, Aiwas would instead have to turn into a clown. Because he hadn’t done anything other than help the President clear the way.

In the end, only Vice President Boca had the ability to fight against the President of Lloyd’s, and the only person that the President of Lloyd’s was afraid of was Vice President Boca. It was just that Boca had never been able to make up his mind to tear his face off and confront him.

“Then I’ll make that determination for you.”

The corners of Aywas’s mouth rose slightly as he looked up at his destination.

This was the York Law Firm in the metropolitan area.

According to Aiwas’s investigation, Attorney York did not live in the Hermes Manor in the White Queen District nowadays.

Because Sherlock’s brother, Mike Lovett, was a smart man, York was worried that he would reveal something. Therefore, he chose to live away from the Red and White Queens …… It just so happens that the metropolitan area is a commercial area and has a high flow of people, and it is normal for him to live here for a long time as a lawyer.

Normally York lawyer will live in his own rented apartment.

The apartment and the lawyer’s office were directly across the street from each other, allowing for surveillance and observation of each other.

This is where York’s cunning comes in – he has specially hired someone to set up rituals so that if someone sneaks into it to investigate, steal or ambush, an alarm will immediately come from the other house.

His lawyer’s office is inhabited by his manservant, who handles the paperwork for him and also looks after the property within his office.

Attorney York’s personal maid also lives in the apartment building and is responsible for his food and shelter, making sure that there is always someone on both sides of the fence and keeping an eye on the alarms.

His own wife and children lived in a villa in the White Queen neighborhood, and his housekeeper was there as well.

It is said that the rabbit has three holes in the wall.

Since the alarm was going off from the other house, it wouldn’t have alerted the intruder over here either. And he couldn’t have reported it to the Inspectorate and let the Inspectorate handle the theft case, he must have handled it all himself. He was, after all, a Parasite Demon, and was quite confident in his own strength.

This is partly because the inspectors will arrive very late, can not catch the scene, and most likely can not catch the thief, can not recover the lost property; on the other hand, because, if the inspectors to investigate his property to determine the “value of the theft”, it is very easy for them to see something that York does not want them to see.

Moreover, if the information or items from the Lloyd’s and Noble Red’s associations were lost, he might die – not on the gallows, but at the hands of the assassins sent by the Gray and Green Lady.

But on the other hand, it could also be considered – it was a special means to lure him out of the house.

Ivars and Lily infiltrated as if they hadn’t seen the ceremonial threads, purposely stomped on the alarms all the way to the archive room, and headed straight for it.

He had Lily strike an oil lamp and go to the bookshelves to pretend he was searching for information. The angle, along with the translucent curtains that York had intentionally used, allowed York to see a blurred back from the second floor of the apartment, judging it to be a young woman, but at the same time not being able to make out her features.

Usually, young means weak. This could further allow York’s attorney to let his guard down.

Fittingly.

The hook had only been down for less than ten minutes when Attorney York came running angrily over.

He quietly pushed open the door to the file room and took a deep breath.

But not before he got a good look at Lily.

A hand suddenly came from the side and gripped Lawyer York’s throat!
In that instant, York was startled. He was instantly shocked to the core-

It was a fucking trap!
He realized in an instant that the female checking out the information was just a front to lure him out!

Luckily, she seemed to want to ask herself some questions. It was only a gentle grip on his throat, not twisting it or suffocating him.

“Friend, friend …… let go of your hand, and have a talk.”

In a trembling voice, York said evenly, “What do you want? Is it to ask for something? Or do you want money? I can give you both, but take it easy ……”

He said this while spreading his hands to show that he had no hostility.

But in the dead center where the other party couldn’t see, the backs of York’s hands suddenly opened several snake-like eyes.

Those were weak demons called “Lizard Eyes Demons”, and they were also naturally born demons. Their only ability was to paralyze others by staring at them.

York, as a host demon, was able to acquire this trait as well. As long as the back of his hand is seen, he can be paralyzed.

“Trap Demon,” York commanded in his mind, “Give me your power!”

The Trapping Demon, which was hosted in his body, had its power continuously drained away.

The bottom of York’s pupils slowly shone with a pink glow, mixed with a purple halo that lit up in synchronization – those were the magic eyes that could manipulate the will of others and entice them to fall just by looking at them.

If I were you, I would have just given up resisting.

But unexpectedly, the demon inside him just sneered.

…… What?
A gloomy and cold voice rang out, “What a catch, Mr. Fish.”

Counting the time before, this was the second time he had been fished by Aiwas.

Ivars kindly added:
“–And also, this kind of petty tactics won’t work on me.”

As his words fell, shadows spread out beneath his feet.

The entire room was covered in shadows, and the light source was completely engulfed. York instantly fell into an abyss where he couldn’t reach out.

His “Trapping Sight” ability needs to rely on eye contact …… but now he was completely engulfed by the shadows, and he didn’t even see the other party’s eyes the whole time!

This is ……

“…… Shadow Demon?”

York’s voice trembled a little. This couldn’t possibly be a Shadow Demon contracted by a Demon Scholar – even in the Star Antimony Kingdom, there were less than a handful of Demon Scholars who could barely contract a Shadow Demon. It was unlikely that a big shot of that level would specially come to trouble himself, wanting to torture himself by casually arranging a ritual and having his soul arrested in the past. Therefore, this could only be a Demon possessed by a Shadow Demon.

But he was the official member of the Noble Red Conjunction. He had never even heard of any demon possessed by a shadow demon in Avalon …… so this one was probably a wild demon.

York had been a Demon himself, and he understood the Demon’s situation well.

Before he broke free of demon control and became a Parasite, he too would lose control and have his body manipulated by demons from time to time. And the more he used the power from the demons, the deeper he was manipulated by the demons. And the more powerful the demon, the harder it was to resist.

The fact that he was able to defeat the trapping demon was the result of a combination of will and coincidence.

Being possessed by a Shadow Demon, it was basically impossible to have much of one’s own will left. In other words, the one talking to himself was not a demon at all, but a shadow demon that was manipulating his body!

Being of the same Demon lineage, it was obvious that York’s level was higher than the other party’s, but he was unable to defeat the other party.

It was simply because the combat power of a trapping demon was not at all on the same level as that of a Shadow Demon ……

“Even though it’s been shaking for a long time before, this time it’s for real.”

The opponent commented, “The acting isn’t working, Mr. Lawyer.”

“What exactly do you want! We’re both Transcendents, shouldn’t we be companions in Avalon!”

The power from the trapping demon surged again, and York’s voice became incendiary, “There should be something you want as well if you didn’t kill me right away!
“I’m also considered a high-ranking member of the Lloyd Society. It’s also a person of the Noble Red Junction …… Do you want to join the club? Or do you want revenge? Or are you short of money? I can do it all for you.

“Sir, anything you need me to do, you can also say to me by all means. We are all companions who share the same illnesses ah …… I was also once a demon!”

He didn’t dare to irritate the other party, directly calling him a shadow demon – if it happened to be a human consciousness controlling the body at this time, he might strangle him to death in a fit of irritation; and if he directly said “I have a way to help you suppress the shadow demon”, he might be killed by the shadow demon again.

His voice was subconsciously modifying the other party’s subconsciousness, which was the weakest modification of consciousness, just in order not to be detected by the other party: “In any case, we are at least not the enemy …… isn’t it?”

“I do have something to ask.”

In the shadows, the other agreed.

–Good, it’s good to be able to communicate!
“Just ask, I can answer anything!”

York was instantly overjoyed, and had even begun to imagine how Vice President Boca’s faction strength would grow after he introduced this powerful transcendent to the association.

Even if he couldn’t become a Parasite Demon, as long as he could grow normally to the third energy level …… then he would basically be able to utilize fifty percent of the Shadow Demon’s strength.

That would be their killer app!

York had always been very patterned. Such a small matter as himself being counted and sneak attacked is completely worthless compared to the benefits. Losing face was just a matter of making a harrumph and getting over it – even if he was slapped twice himself, he wouldn’t be angry at all. At least the face wouldn’t be angry.

As a result, the other party’s question caused York to fall into silence.

“Where does Vice President Boka of Lloyd’s Register live? What is his real identity? Does the family have any power?”

The other party said flatly, “Does he have any skills that he specializes in?”

York’s pupils contracted slightly and his mouth fell open.

“…… What the hell are you?”

“Wrong answer.”

An icy voice rang out.

A shadow needle less than the thickness of a pinky finger emerged from behind him, suddenly bursting the demon’s eye on the back of his left hand!
It wasn’t the pain of the back of his hand being penetrated, but the feeling of his eye being pierced-

The sharp pain made York subconsciously want to cry out.

But the hand at his neck suddenly tightened, stifling his cries of pain.

“I’ll say, I’ll say – Vice President Boca lives at 113 Green Vine Avenue in the White Queen District, and he’s a fourth-energy level Lawgiver and fourth-energy level Demon Scholar. The contracted demon is an Ice Demon, and his best skill is the Lawgiver faction’s Lawgiver art …… He is a judge of the Intermediate Court, and is now a Knight with access to the Hall of the Round Table …… He is not from a Knight family, his father was a dentist, his mother was a wealthy merchant, and his father was the lover she once kept ……”

With just one torture, York spilled all the information.

For he was very sensible – he was a good judge of character.

This person in front of him was obviously not someone he could fool.

Since he had a grudge against the vice president, then let him go to the vice president!

– – It’s none of my business!

“Thank you for the information.”

The other responded in a friendly manner, releasing his hand from around his neck.

Lawyer York breathed a sigh of relief and a smile piled up on his face again, “Geez, it’s good to talk about it. We’re all kindred spirits here ……”

“I believe that you are telling the truth. I am also very grateful that you were able to provide crucial information ……”

That low and gloomy voice fell, “But my mentor has orders, I’m sorry.

“Ivars Moriarty is ineligible to enter Lloyd’s. That is what killed you.”

As soon as his words fell, the Shadow Spear pierced Lawyer York’s heart.

For the demon, this damage was not enough to kill him.

Still, Lawyer York immediately closed his eyes and stopped breathing.

Waiting for less than a point! Updated!
