404 The Demon And The Demon
Selma Payne’s POV:
Who wouldn’t want to decorate their own home? Who wouldn’t ept a gift from a friend? Were all the items in the Mullwica Family made by her?
Was there a possibility that the stone b was a gift from someone else or that she had bought it from somewhere?
And the issue of the family emblem.
As the family of Gand City’s mayor had picked up a gand, they used it as their family emblem. However, many people had a deeper connection with this gand, such as the witch who ate her lover. Her lover had eaten the leaf on the gand, and she had eaten her lover and gotten pregnant. Didn’t this mean that the gand gave her the child?
In that case, why couldn’t her descendants also use gands as family emblems?
Was the ck-robed witch who wandered by the cliff in the ancestor’s notes the descendant of the legendary witch? This way, the metallic essory on her head that was simr to the gand and the embroidery on the corner of her robe could be exined clearly!
If there was indeed a witch family with a gand as their family emblem, then there was a new exnation for the tes in Mullwica’s house. As a powerful legendary witch, it was normal for Mullwica to have three to five witch or wizard friends. It was amon etiquette in ancient times for friends to give each other items with family emblems!
After I returned to my bedroom, I immediately told Master Hayley and Dorothy about my guess. As an experienced and knowledgeable schr, Master Hayley felt that what I said wasn’t impossible. In fact, it was even more likely to be the truth than her previous guess.
The patterns on the stone b, whether the flowers or the eyes, were out of tune with Mullwica’s research. None of her books and notes showed their figures.
Dorothy listened to our discussion quietly. After a while, she suddenly said, “It doesn’t matter if it’s the legend of the gand or Mullwica. Have you noticed that there’s onemon point?”
“What?”
“Demons. Demons have appeared. Mullwica’s son summoned a demon to resurrect his adoptive father, resulting in aplete ethical tragedy. To take revenge on her lover, the witch summoned the demon, which ended up as aplete love tragedy. These two legendary demons seem to like to y with the story’s direction, causing them to go toward an irreversible ending,” Dorothy said.
“I know that this guess might be outrageous. After all, there are at least eighty to 100 famous demons, and none are good. But... Is there a possibility that the demons in these two stories are the same? It’s hard not to think that the offspring of the witch in the legend of the gand is rted to the witch who lives in seclusion in the Rocky Mountains. It’s a coincidence.”
This guess was indeed outrageous, but Dorothy strangely convinced me. “You mean these two demons are Azazel?”
“That’s right. In fact, I’ve been thinking about another question before. Why did Azazel’s party have to attack the Elven Capital? If they need sacrifices, why don’t they attack the cities with treasures?
“It wasn’t until I saw the chaotic internal affairs of the elven race after the Elf King went into a deep sleep that I realized this was a sophisticated n. Attacking the capital was not an unnecessary move. On the contrary, they wanted the sacrifice of the Elf King. Once the elven race falls into chaos without a leader, it would be easier for them to fish in troubled waters. They didn’t know that the Elf King had the mark of nature, but it didn’t matter if they couldn’t leave the Elf Forest because they had already chosen the elven race as their target!”
Dorothy was right. I was the one who had the preconceived notion that the evil cultists were forced into this corner. However, if the legendary demon were really Azazel, a sacrifice closely rted to him would naturally be the best choice.
At least, if the cultists wanted to rmend his followers to sacrifice themselves for him, thebination of ‘the gand’s descendants’ and ‘gand’ would undoubtedlyplete the broken gand into a real divine artifact. No matter how strong the physical body was, it could not bepared to it.
This almost made me certain that Azazel’s party woulde to snatch the gand. I sent a brief to the Elven Capital, hoping the Council of Elders would send some reinforcements.
Before reinforcements arrived, I received news from Dorothy.
After a few days of careful recovery, she could finally withstand the force of nature. For this reason, she was unwilling to wait a moment longer and immediatelymunicated with nature.
It was a mysterious state. During this time, even my mind-link with her was disconnected. I even felt that my connection with her kin was blocked by something. I could not feel Dorothy as if she had disappeared from the world.
She made me a little anxious, but what she just told didn’t even give me the time to be anxious.
They were performing a short-distance spatial movement! Almost at the very first second after themunication was broken, Dorothy shouted at me with all her might, “They’re less than a hundred kilometers away from Gand City!”
