Chapter 409 – Great Sin Card: Night Demon (2 in 1)
Accompanied by Aywas’s chanting, the space around him fell into complete silence in an instant.
As colors as beautiful as oil paint were applied to the space, the “contrast” of Aiwas’ entire body suddenly began to rise dramatically, and his entire body became bright and prominent.
In the next moment, the right side of his neck, the left side of his chest, and his abdomen appeared in a brilliant red color.
It wasn’t the dark red of blood,…… but more like ketchup, or liquid fire.
In a flash, Aiwas entire body suddenly shattered, and the painting style and color tone returned to normal. And the sound also returned together.
His entire body was covered with shallow cracks that were about to split, and the ethereal and void aura from the Twin Mirrors overflowed from the wounds all over his body. The cracks all over his body were drenched in white light.
Those three wounds were three doorways.
Like three moons with different phases, they seeped out clear moonlight as they rotated.
The dark and cold aura belonging to the Fallen Heaven Division dipped in from below Aiwas, constantly intertwining with the moonlight and filling in the illusory purple outline of the cards.
The black and purple auras entwined together, constantly tuning in, condensing, and gathering.
Aiwas softly called out the night demon’s name: “Night demon …… Veneers, my little raven.
“I call upon your name at this moment, giving you the brand of jealousy.
“From now on, my life is your life, my destiny is your destiny ……
“- Obey me, Phantom Demon of the Beyond Way!”
The voice of Aiwas in the form of the Son of the Moon was soft and hoarse, like a murmur in the night.
And then, Aiwas and the Night Demon solidified at the same time. The surroundings once again became silent and darkened, only the colors of Aiwas and the Night Demon became clear and vivid. Just like the jewels reflected in the moonlight under a dark night sky.
The pupils of Aiwas and Night Demon were a similar scarlet color. The moment the two of them looked at each other, a black illusory chain emerged from Ivars’ heart and pierced into the Night Demon’s body.
It was a chain constructed from Ivars’ “soul” and “destiny”.
It was not a tough thing. On the contrary,……, it is an extremely fragile chain that needs to be taken care of.
If the Nightmare struggles, just tearing this chain is enough to instantly injure Ivars.
However, she did not put up any resistance, but stood still, allowing Aiwas to connect with her soul and complete the resonance.
In an instant, Ivars’ eyes went black, and he fell into the void of deep space.
When Ivars opened his eyes again, he saw that he appeared in the familiar but unfamiliar streets of the empire.
However, the person standing on the street was not the Beyadle that Ivars knew, but the black-haired girl who was even younger than Yulia.
The young girl walked alone slowly in the rain. Her wet pupils were clear and soft, shivering like an abandoned puppy. She was wearing a thin but delicate white dress, with a large brimmed straw hat on her head, her hands were outstretched to hold down her straw hat, but her long hair was still wet from the rain.
The people who came and went saw Bayard, and then went around on their own.
She walked on in a daze, the people who were much taller than her were like two walls of people, blocking the world in the drizzling rain. The street seemed to be endless, and there was no way to get to the end of it. The portraits of people on both sides seemed to spread to the end of the world, looking up how could not see the edge.
There was only the sound of rain in the whole world, and no one spoke to her.
The girl walked like this, I do not know when she turned into a cold-faced elegant young lady, outside the rain is still falling. The streets on the left and right had changed subtly.
She was wearing a long dress, with a servant holding an umbrella behind her. She was still walking amongst the crowd, and the crowd was still giving way to two walls of people on the left and right.
But as she walked down the street, there was still no one to respond to her.
As she walked further, she stopped and turned into a Moonchild with scarlet pupils, and the servants behind her were gone. Slender, white fingers rested against her mouth in silence.
At some point, that surrounding rain had turned into blood rain. And the originally densely packed people on the street gradually became fewer, and the stores on both sides of the street became broken and tattered.
And just at this moment, a shadow suddenly rushed over from behind her, pulling her forward with one hand.
That shadow was like she was contaminated by shadows, with two-thirds of it turning into a pitch-black silhouette. Only one eye remained on the originally white face. The other eye turned into a dangerous red light shining in the pitch-black shadows.
It was another self!
She stumbled forward after the fleet-footed shadows, but a rare smile showed on her face.
She happily chatted with the other person about something …… but the faster the shadow went the faster she gradually lost track. Then she smiled and chose to give up and let go.
When the shadow suddenly felt a lightness in her hand and looked back. She had already turned into a puddle of blood and melted into the rain of blood.
Those two walls of people had completely disappeared without a trace. The world had become so clear.
The blood rain just fell to the ground, and the Shadow Demon maintained her stance of looking back, bathing in the blood rain alone.
The streets were empty, and all that remained of the originally prosperous streets was a ruin after the war.
Pure smoke, steaming like black dry ice, emanated from her body, and two lines of blood slid down her face. I don’t know if it was tears or rain.
At that moment, she rubbed her eyes, looked into the sunless night sky, and shielded her eyes with her hand.
She opened her mouth, but in the end, nothing came out.
Because there was no need to.
Her side was empty. There was no one who cared that she existed.
What was sadder than the rage was that even the rage was reduced to nothingness.
And just then, there was a sudden gentle tap on her shoulder.
The Shadow Demon looked back, half wary, half expecting, and saw the white-robed priest with a black umbrella.
The hem of Ivars’ robe was soaked with blood, like waves. And the shadows that covered out under the umbrella only revealed half of his chin.
The corners of his mouth could be seen rising slightly. He smiled softly as he looked down, his mouth moving slightly to say something, and let his umbrella out slightly forward.
-That was a tiny bit.
A small amount of space given up without letting himself get caught in the rain.
When Shadow Demon turned back, she flew and began to change back to her previous form.
Shadow Demon, Moonchild, Missy, Little Girl ……
Eventually she turned back into the shivering, white-skirted girl and turned back to embrace Ivars in a hug.
Ivas didn’t reach out to hug her back, just lowered his gaze, compassionate and tender.
“Vignes, my little raven.”
Aiwas’s voice, for the first time, came clearly out of that bloody night.
The next moment, it was like the red curtain was drawn up again.
The entire world was submerged in a sea of blood.
When Ivars woke up again, his entire body appeared in a labyrinth of layered mirrors.
Countless shattered mirrors surrounded him, each containing a fragment of Veneus, or Bayard, at different times.
All of them looked at Ivas with smiles of varying magnitude but all full of sincerity.
Aiwas held up his hand.
Not stretched out in front of him, but raised high.
A huge, horizontal black spell was instantly created from above the earth, soaring upwards.
Under the reflection of the spell formation, the false images in those mirrors instantly disappeared without a trace. And the spell formation flew into the sky, and a crow pattern emerged in the sky.
A pitch-black circular seal was branded on the circle in the center, covering the crow.
In an instant, the spell formation began to collapse from the outermost circle.
Circle by circle, it contracted, and in the end, only the black circle in the center, which was about one person tall, remained.
The crow pattern inside slightly lifted its wings and raised its head to let out a silent yet excited caw.
Aiwas opened his eyes again and realized that the Night Demon had disappeared without a trace at some point.
The raven circle was only a palm diameter away, floating in front of Ivars, level with the ground.
And two brand new tarot cards, one on top of the other, were slowly printed out from the void, floating on the top and bottom of the circle.
Pitch-black electric light linked in the middle of these two cards, as if some kind of magnetic force attracted them gradually close together.
The original [Lovers] card was a naked man and a woman gathered together under the guidance of an angel, with two trees symbolizing reproduction and taboo behind them.
The newborn Lovers card, on the other hand, is the Emperor and Empress, who are close together like puppets under the strings of a white-robed sorcerer, with card faces as similar and opposite as mirror images. Numerous overlapping doors open around them, and behind them shines a path of emergent light.
The Devil card, on the other hand, originally looked like a long-horned devil sitting on top of a throne with reddish skin. It looked at the slaves bound by chains and manipulated by itself with a cruel smile. And the horns and tails, the symbols of demons, had grown on those slaves.
The newborn demon sign, however, was just a three-eyed white goat standing on top of a huge phallus. Its coiled horns looked like two DNA chains pointing to the sky.
Finally, as the two cards gradually generated and became clear, they slowly moved closer to the center.
The moment the two cards came together tightly, it suddenly erupted in a burst of brilliant light.
It turned into a thin card like a black crystal.
The shape of a raven was outlined on the face of the card in blood-like crimson.
It was cold, cruel, and mysterious.
It whirled around and soon came to a well-behaved stop in front of Ivars.
Ivars stretched out his right hand and gently tapped on top of the card, writing down his name.
Its attributes were immediately revealed.
[Cardinal Sin: Night Demon (Lover, Demon)]
[Level: 50]
[Beyond the Way, Attribute Dark]
Sixth energy level, upper phantom demon.
A truly destructive force – a powerful helper in defeating the Fallen Heaven Division!
Aiwas took a deep breath and pressed down the excitement in his heart as he checked the attributes of this card.
The Great Sin Card could not be “burned” to restore the number of times it could be used, but it could be used once a day on both sides.
Generally speaking, the positive side is close to the effect of a spell; while the negative side is to summon the body.
As expected, this card’s positive effect is a spell effect– [Orthogonal Summon – Nightmare of Nightmare].
[Positive Summon – Mirror of Nightmares]
[Required: Dark 5]
[Instant, Non-contact, Immediate]
[Effect: Summon the power of the Nightmare to erode the target mirror, generating a mirror image of itself; the mirror image can cast spells and has an independent mana pool, but cannot make sounds, move, use items, or deal any type of damage; when the mirror image lasts for one minute, is actively broken or is broken by others, it will deal Shadow/Stained Evil/Cursed type of damage to the surrounding area or to the person who broke it, and the damage can be toggled on its own, By default, it deals the damage with the target’s lowest resistance type.
[Reversed Summoning – Night Demon]
Required: Dark 5
Maintain: Dark 5*Daily
[Action: Summon]
【Effect: Summon Beast of Jealousy – Night Demon to fight for you; Night Demon is considered a summoned object; in non-combat state, Beast of Jealousy – Night Demon can transform into a Night Raven and enter the Follow state; only one Beast of Great Sin can exist at the same time]]
Like the other Great Sins cards, it consumes the same thunderous five points of blue.
The inverse effect is a normal summoning, just like calling on a small butterfly.
And the orthogonal effect …… Ivars looked at it a little and it seemed a bit interesting.
If Aywas didn’t understand it wrong, this skill meant that a self casting totem could be created.
Although it couldn’t “deal damage”, it could heal!
The ability to heal and add buffs, as well as the ability to draw cards with Ivars, rounded up to a double line of operation,……, only the mirror image can not cause damage, and will be broken when touched.
But it doesn’t matter if it breaks on impact – if someone attacks it and it breaks, then even if that enemy is far away from the mirror, they will receive a counterattack!
If you don’t interrupt, you stand still and help someone regenerate, dispel, or add status; if you interrupt, you inflict a powerful adaptive counterattack!
And looking at that “independent mana pool”, it seems that mirror casting can also be done without using Eywaith’s own mana!
If triggered actively, it can also be detonated to deal ranged damage!
“…… This is a PVP skill.”
Aiwas opened his eyes wide and sighed with satisfaction.
Unlike the Flame Butterfly provided by Little Butterfly, which could be used over and over again, it tended towards extreme bursts.
Its only drawback was probably that the mirror image couldn’t move.
And if you use it well,……, for example, with the Cloak of Shadows and invisibility, you may even be able to mislead the enemy into thinking that you are using instantaneous movement. Thus, you can let it absorb the damage to take the place of death …….
Anyway, the effect of this spell is an “instant” “non-action” spell. In other words, Ivars only needs to think about it, not reach out and point it at a mirror.
It’s just that it’s a bit of a pain in the ass for the little butterfly.
Ivars can’t have both the traveling Flame Butterfly and the Night Raven follow him at the same time……. He can only have one big beast in traveling form follow him.
Compared to the little butterfly, the Night Demon, whose battle power had already been molded, was more suitable to follow.
Not to mention, Aywas was now missing the Shadow Demon as a ready overseer. Little Butterfly lacked vigilance, and Night Raven could make up for that.
Before summoning Night Raven, Aiwas first took out his Book of Law and sent the card in.
The count of [Ivars’ Book of Law] immediately jumped two knots upwards, rising to (7/21).
The number of times Ivars could use “burn cards” also changed from once a day to twice a day.
At that moment, the Book of Law suddenly changed…
It blossomed with a gorgeous light, and the extraordinary feature originally written as “Unlocked after logging in seven Illusion Magic Cards” suddenly appeared.
[Transcendent Feature: Enhance the effect of a card with the same attributes at the cost of putting a registered Phantasmal Magic card not yet on cooldown on cooldown].
This is ……
“Great Sin Enhancement!”
Ivars eyes widened in surprise.
-Worthy of being his own Book of Law, it really is true that every phrase is an excellent one!
Update complete!
At least I finished writing the ceremony, I feel like I’m going to have to take tomorrow off, my body can’t take it anymore, so I’m going to restore my routine ……
