Chapter 41 – The Loli Saint and the Snow Witch (1/2)

The Jackalweres’ attack on the camp was not a coincidence.

But in a sense, it could count as a coincidence.

One day prior

Black Lake Forest

Elona was still escaping for her life.

She could be counted as dead after being surrounded by the Crucifix Guards. Even Elona herself forgot how she was able to escape yesterday.

Although she survived and fled into Black Lake Forest, the dogs of the Holy Light Church no longer pursued her, but she was far from being safe.

Yesterday, the “Snow Witch” sent someone to set up an ambush, and attempted to seal her with a boundary, and catch her alive. Elona fell into the trap without any precautions, thinking that she had come to a dead end. At the last minute, she suddenly found a gap in the boundary, so she rushed out!

The 20 believers meticulous arranged the demon sealing boundary, a portion of the circuit seems to have been written with the language of the ancient gods, its power was enormous. Elona couldn’t understand why there was a weak point in the boundary. Not even a first-grade magic apprentice would commit this kind of low level mistake. It was impossible!

Did that “Snow Witch” do something? Did she abide by her promise, secretly destroying the boundary and letting her live?

It was impossible no matter how you thought about it. They were enemies and it wasn’t a guaranteed promise, she had no reason to do it. Elona didn’t believe that the other party would deliberately let her go.

Although Elona’s little life was safe, she couldn’t escape the effects of the magic boundary. Elona has lost all the power of being a demon, she couldn’t even restore her original form, she had no way of turning into a red-eyes black cat and could only run forward with her two legs in human form.

Her pitiful look has shamed the demon race, but she couldn’t fall down, she still couldn’t give up, she must arrive in Winterless City, and find the missing Demon King!

If she couldn’t, the entire demon race will face an unprecedented disaster!

“Why… does my head… so dizzy…” As she ran, Elona felt like the world was spinning around her, and it felt like a big block of iron was stuffed in her head, she would slant left for a moment, then slant right.

She saw a strange lake not far from her, the lake was a deep black, which appeared exceptionally strange in the middle of the forest.

She remembered that it was Black Lake, as long as she arrives at Black Lake, she would be safe!

“Strange… why can’t I… walk straight…”

Elona felt her legs become very light and fluttering, as if she could fly into the sky at any moment. She tried to move her body forward, but she could not help but sway all over the place, and could not move straight ahead. On several occasions, she almost slammed into a tree.

“Oh… why is it suddenly dark…”

It was still clearly bright out, but the scene in front of her eyes was getting darker and darker, and more and more blurred. Before she completely lost her vision, she saw a large humanoid type of demonic beast lying on the ground.

At the same time, the other party also noticed her.

“Jackalwere?”

The shape of the Jackalwere was twice as large as the ordinary ones. He held a broken sword and wore a complete set of armor, it looked impressive. It seemed to be the leader of the Jackalweres.

After noticing that a stranger was approaching, the leader vigilantly got up and strangely wailed. Soon, many Jackalweres emerged from all four directions, and Elona was firmly surrounded.

Seeing this group of Jackalweres, not only was Elona not afraid, but she showed a happy expression.

“Cute little jackalweres, hurry and save me…”

Before she even finished speaking, Elona stepped on air, lost her balance, and fell to the ground. With this fall her remaining consciousness was scattered.

The leader of the Jackalweres and others curiously walked over and did not understand what happened to this human.

The leader bent down and completely sniffed Elona’s body with its black nose, then suddenly froze. It realized that this girl was not human!

“Little wolfie, save me…” Elona closed her eyes and squeezed out those words, then fainted.

The leader howled and grabbed Elona with one hand and carried her on its shoulder and slowly walked deep into the forest.

……

……

At the same time

Southern Black Lake Forest

Gorgeous robes, holy white silver cross, thick covenant scrolls, all the things that came into view were out of tune with the dark tones of Black Lake Forest. They seem to be a light of hope from the sky. A desperate battle line built in the desperate forest, a clear boundary drawn between darkness and evil.

Dozens of believers of the Holy Light Church stood quietly, seemingly waiting for something. In front of them, a group of people with solemn expressions were lined up. They held various weapons and kneeled on one knee, and also lowered their heads deeply.

Unlike the believers, the robes of their group were not gorgeously decorated. They were very plain and pure white. Only a huge cross pattern was painted on their back, as if it was the mission and responsibility that they must bear in their lifetime.
