Seeing that Anos didn’t say what the Pope’s prophecy was, Luo Mi was very sensible and didn’t ask any more questions. He just started to describe the “evil deeds” of the non-existent demon with added details.
In his description, he became the weak, innocent victim who was captured as a sacrifice, and the peasants were the poor people who were charmed by the evil spirit. He ran out immediately after finding the opportunity. Even though he knew that he was a succubus and might be purified by the Holy See, he still decided to go to a nearby church to report it.
Whenever it came to what the original person did, Luo Mi always referred to it as “that devil”, never mentioning himself – anyway, it was indeed not Luo Mi himself who did it, so there was no psychological pressure at all when talking like this.
When it came to the emotional part, Luo Mi even had tears in his eyes, and still tried to look at Anos with his eyes wide open, letting the other person see his “sincerity” and “compassion” clearly.
Luo Mi was not sure whether this effect would be good or not but seeing that Anos never meant to purify him meant that at least it had no negative effects.
Luo Mi then became more active and tried harder to talk to Anos, in order to get closer to him, so as not to let him cause trouble and kill him later; at the same time, he could also test the character of His Royal Highness the Holy Son.
The fall of the Son was certainly not without cause. It was a pity that Luo Mi was rambling on one side for most of the day. But apart from a perfunctory reply, Anos’s longest sentence was “Can you be quiet? There is a demon’s breath nearby.”
Luo Mi closed his mouth in grievance and complained to the system in his heart: “Is he not talking nonsense? I am right next to him. Of course he can sense the aura of a demon.”
Before the system could respond, Luo Mi suddenly felt a chill at the back of his head!
A dark aura filled the air from behind, and a deep voice sounded in Luo Mi’s ears: “Kill him.”
This voice sounded like some kind of instruction. Then Luo Mi felt his body going out of control. Then he pulled out the dagger from his waist and suddenly stabbed at Anos beside him!
The impossibly beautiful Holy Son’s blue eyes were still staring forward, but his left hand moved slightly and accurately clamped Luo Mi’s wrist.
Luo Mi’s wrist hurt, and the dagger fell to the ground with a clang.
Anos didn’t look at Luo Mi, he raised his right hand with the palm forward, the cross emblem on his exquisite white gloves lit up, and a blazing, magnificent holy light shot out from his palm, blasting forward like a torrent!
There was no loud noise. Wherever the holy light went, no matter the rocks or vegetation, it disappeared from the material level, leaving only a trace like melted butter on the edge where the holy light passed.
Luo Mi’s body was suddenly able to take control.
He stared blankly at the ravine swept out by the holy light in front of him, and after a while he came back to his senses: “What just happened?”
This holy light strike was so cool! It was like a laser cannon!
Anos finally glanced at him and said calmly: “There was a high-level demon controlling you just now.”
Luo Mi recalled the feeling of being out of control just now, and touched his neck with some fear: “Can they still do this?”
He quickly explained to Anos, “I was being controlled, and I had absolutely no intention of doing anything to His Royal Highness the Holy Son!”
Anos stared into Luo Mi’s eyes, nodded, his expression softened slightly: “I know.”
Luo Mi breathed a sigh of relief.
“Unlike humans, high-ranking demons have the natural authority to dominate and manipulate lower-ranking demons.” Anos glanced at Luo Mi. Although he didn’t say much, his sea-blue eyes clearly said, “Why are you doing this? You seem like you have no idea”.
Is this happening? Luo Mi took advantage of the situation and continued to clear his name: “I grew up in the human world and don’t know about demons.”
Anos’ eyebrows moved, not sure whether he believed it or not. He stretched out his hand towards Luo Mi’s neck, and his gloves lit up again.
Luo Mi thought that the Holy Son was going to purify him with holy light and was so frightened that he almost ran away – but he only felt the back of his neck turn slightly hot, as if it had been roasted by fire.
Anos quickly pulled back without explaining what he had done.
Instead, the system provides an analysis of the collar:
[Anos added an isolation circle to the collar, which can greatly reduce the degree of dominance over the host by high-level demons.]
Luo Mi touched his neck: “The Holy Son is pretty good.”
Instead of directly purifying him as an unsafe element, he chose to help.
Why did a high-ranking demon really appear? Luo Mi didn’t know whether he should be thankful for the moment – the appearance of another demon confirmed the authenticity of his words. Seeing that Anos ignored him from the beginning and was now willing to explain, it showed that the other person had gradually tended to believe him.
The two of them continued to walk forward to where the holy light struck.
The holy light had blasted a large pit of more than 200 square meters on the ground. Anos walked around the pit and seemed to have gained something. He asked Luo Mi: “Did they set up the summoning array here?”
Luo Mi felt that the surroundings looked familiar and happened to see half of the iron cage melted by the holy light: “Yes, this is it.”
He saw that Anos was very concerned about the destroyed summoning magic circle, and just as he was thinking about taking credit to show that he had deliberately tampered with the magic circle, he heard Anos sigh.
Anos’s beautiful golden eyebrows furrowed as he stared at the pit melted by the holy light: “This time they summoned an incredible demon.”
Luo Mi was stunned for a moment, swallowed the words that were about to reach his lips, and asked cautiously: “Summoning from the magic circle… was successful?”
“This magic circle connected the Demon Realm with the smallest amount of magic power, and summoned a high-ranking demon through the weakest point of the barrier – and there was not even a sacrifice.” Anos’ blue eyes were solemn and confused, “Such a sophisticated summoning array was actually arranged by a group of ordinary people by following some drawings, this is simply unbelievable.”
Luo Mi swallowed: “Does such a magic lineup have a high error rate? I saw that they seemed to have made a few mistakes…”
Anos shook his head: “The more advanced the magic circle, the higher the precision requirements. Even if the summoning circle is drawn crookedly, the summoning will inevitably fail.”
Luo Mi: “…”
He looked back in his mind to remember how he blindly directed those people to modify the magic circle before.
At this moment, Anos suddenly took out a small, square box from the pocket of the priest’s robe and put it on his ear. After a moment, he said “hmm”: “Bring the captured person to me.”
