Chapter 190 A Secret Visit
During these three years, the Mad Queen Lilith did not express anything about Roy and Julia’s inaction of not completing the mission. She did not send anyone to supervise them, nor did she show up, as though she had completely forgotten about the two of them. Instead, the Lord of the Hollows felt a little anxious. He had once appeared and asked Roy why he had not killed Abraxis.
Facing the Lord of the Hollows, Roy appeared extremely respectful, but he did not mention it. He laughed and avoided the subject until the anxious Lord of the Hollows finally forced him to answer, so he simply said that he could not do it!
After all, he was only a high-rank demon. No, plus Julia, it was two of them. Even if Roy, a frost demon, showed stronger combat strength than ordinary high-rank demons, it was still far beyond him when it came to assassinating a demon lord. No matter how the Lord of the Hollows tricked him and how tempting the reward was, Roy’s mind was still very clear, and he would not fall for it.
Roy said that unless the Lord of the Hollows fulfilled his promise in advance and allowed him to have the power to match a demon lord, he would definitely not provoke Abraxis now.
Although Roy did not know what the issue between the Lord of the Hollows and Abraxis was, his attitude was very clear. Don’t think of using me as a tool. I’m not a hot-blooded fool with no brains. Either you fulfill your promise and give me power in advance, or you wait until I have the ability to kill Abraxis before I go. I didn’t say that I won’t help you, but it’s hard to tell when. Anyway, demons are long-lived, and waiting hundreds of years is nothing…
Faced with this situation, the Lord of the Hollows was very helpless. He had left the Abyss for too long, making this ancient demon’s thinking a little stiff. For those angels and demons who came to him to seek to free themselves, he had to first ask them before taking away their souls. With this kind of behavior, he had no way to deal with Roy’s procrastination tactics, so he could only let out a long sigh and return to his Hollows Space.
Julia was initially a little worried that Roy’s uncooperative attitude would anger the Lord of the Hollows, but Roy reassured her because he could tell that this old demon would not do anything to him.
After the End War began, it could be said that the Three Kingdoms had been stirred up. Under the complicated situation, all sorts of monsters and snakes had jumped out. The Lord of the Hollows must have had some special purpose to find him. As one of the former members of the Charred Council, even if he had begun to age and his magic power began to decline, shouldn’t he still be able to defeat Abraxis? But he had not taken action and instead found him. Wasn’t there some ulterior motive?
Roy was even wondering if the Lord of the Hollows saw Julia following him and thought that he was Samael’s subordinate, so he was thinking of ways to instigate him into killing the Destroyer’s subordinate to deepen the enmity between Samael and the Destroyer. When Roy could not guess the other party’s true motive, his best solution was to do nothing to prevent himself from falling into a difficult situation… Fortunately, after seeing Roy, the Lord of the Hollows probably realized that he was acting too anxious and aroused Roy’s suspicion, so he did not appear in front of Roy for the next two years.
In the following days, Roy and Julia stayed in their territory every day, and the thing that they did the most was have sex. Roy felt that Julia really wanted to have a child with him. It seemed that Roy seeking the secrets of the nephilim had given her many inspirations and made her believe that even though the two of them were different races, there was still the possibility of giving birth to a descendent. Therefore, during this time, Julia’s greatest passion was to find ways to squeeze Roy dry every day… Roy felt both happy and pained about this. He felt that the fallen angel was beginning to move closer to a succubus. There were more and more tricks, but his nutrition seemed to be unable to keep up…
After three years of unremitting collection, Roy obtained more than two hundred thousand standard units of souls from low-level demons. Most of them were the animal spirits of mutated demonized creatures, mixed with a small number of human souls.
Just as Roy thought that if this continued, he could collect more than a million animal spirits, the person he had been waiting for finally appeared.
It was a dark night without any starlight. In fact, three years had passed, and the dust clouds covering Earth had not completely dissipated. At night, on this planet, there was still no moonlight visible. Similarly, there was no sun during the day, only a dim yellow light spot hanging in the sky. This weather was very convenient for demons to move about in.
Roy and Julia’s residence was a castle built by low-level demons. The castle was not large, and it was brightly lit at night because of burning torches hung on the walls.
In the bedroom, there was a huge stone bed, and Julia had fallen deep asleep on it. Roy was hugging her by the side with his eyes closed, seemingly in a deep sleep.
A torch burned, producing light explosions from time to time. The oil from the mutated demonized creature was used as fuel, and it was like this when it burned. The flame swayed and reflected on the surrounding walls, bringing flickering light and shadows.
A black shadow quietly snuck into Roy and Julia’s bedroom. The shadow carefully hid in the shadow of the fire and slowly approached the sleeping Roy and Julia.
It was getting closer and closer. Under the shadow of the bed, the black shadow stood beside it. It slowly stretched out its hand to touch Roy…
But at this moment, the black shadow suddenly stopped!
A sharp, triangular tail tip appeared in front of it, exuding an intense cold aura. The three-segment blade on the tip of the tail slightly opened and closed like an eyeball staring intently at the black shadow, making it not dare to move rashly.
