1246 Following "His" True Feelings—Cowardice (1/2)
The Dark Demonic Wolf that was attacking Reinette Tinekerr seemed to sense something. ”He” slowed down and turned to look at the wraith that had just appeared.
”His” pupils which already occupied two-thirds of ”His” eyes had suddenly dilated, as if ”He” caught scent of a familiar but dangerous aura.
In the blink of an eye, the wraith raised her arms.
The ”Power of Wishes” in the surrounding area rapidly diminished at an accelerated rate. Godhood began to return, having reached the level of Sequence 4. Under the soil beneath the Dark Demonic Wolf's feet, pale-white and illusory arms emerged. They were densely packed like a forest, grabbing onto Kotar's eight legs, making this Miracle Invoker feel like ”He” had fallen into a cold and dead silence. ”He” was temporarily unable to break free.
Using this opportunity, Reinette Tinekerr, who had turned sluggish due to ”Her” controlled Spirit Body Threads, turned illusory as ”She” vanished.
In the pitch-black pupils of the Dark Demonic Wolf, the blonde Miss Messenger in a dark and complicated long dress that was wrapped with vines suddenly phased into existence and completed the possession process.
The actions of the God of Wishes instantly stiffened, as if ”He” had degraded from a living creature to a marionette.
”He” attempted to influence Reinette Tinekerr's Spirit Body Threads, so as to resist the Wraith's possession. However, from time to time, ”He” would be interrupted by the pale-white arms created by the female wraith. Success eluded ”Him.”
Klein maintained the looping of their Spirit Body Threads as he slowly raised the Staff of the Stars, aiming it at the black velvet curtain that had turned into a cloak.
He then constructed a scene in his mind.
The surrounding darkness suddenly flowed, as if it contained an unimaginable secret. Bit by bit, illusory candles lit up in such an environment, illuminating a long table laid out with flesh and blood.
On the two sides of the long table, three extremely blurry figures were holding up the flesh and blood, ravenously devouring them.
In the next second, the three figures turned their heads simultaneously and cast their gazes at the translucent black velvet ”curtain.”
The crazy suction force emitted by the ”curtain” came to an abrupt halt as it hovered in its original spot. It was as if it had momentarily forgotten who it was, whose side it was on, and what it should do.
Feast of Betrayal!
Fairy tale magic's Feast of Betrayal!
The fairy tale magic that Klein had just used was the ”Feast of Betrayal” that originated from The Hermit Cattleya. Its effect was to temporarily awaken the items in the target's hands or imbue them with intelligence, allowing them to carry out ”betrayals”!
This was a Sequence 4 Beyonder power, so it couldn't be used under the restrictions of the ”Power of Wishes.”
At the same time, as the Staff of the Stars's emulated spell was lacking compared to the original spell, as well as the fact that it didn't harbor any ill intentions towards the Dark Demonic Wolf, it only appeared lost and didn't fervently attack its master.
And the moment Klein extricated himself from the influence of the ”curtain,” he immediately snapped his fingers, letting the scarlet flames drown him.
In an instant, he appeared in a flame beside the Dark Demonic Wolf wearing a half top hat and a long black trench coat.
The scarlet flame soared up, transforming into a blazing flame that allowed him to easily leap out.
He arched his back slightly and raised the Staff of Stars as he dashed towards the towering demonic wolf.
Tap! Tap! Tap!
Klein ran faster and faster, as though transforming into a strong gust of wind. What welcomed him was the Dark Demonic Wolf that barely managed to lift up ”His” front two claws that had broken free of the restraints.
Pa! Pa!
Klein waved his black staff to his left and right, accurately hitting the two front claws of Kotar, making them pause momentarily.
At the same time, he crouched down and slid under the Dark Demonic Wolf's two front claws.
Amidst the howling winds, Klein turned around in midair and thrust upwards with the Staff of the Stars.
With a poof, the gem-embedded black staff pierced through the dark and short furred skin, driving deeply into the Dark Demonic Wolf's body. A ludicrous gash tore open.
Whoosh!
Deep black blood with hints of red gushed out like a flood, spraying a substance with strong corrosive properties that belonged to a Mythical Creature at Klein.
But at that moment, Klein's momentum had brought him flying under the Dark Demonic Wolf. He was preparing to launch his second round of attacks.
Suddenly, he heard an intermittent roar.
This was from Wraith's possession. Due to the difficulty in moving, what Dark Demonic Wolf Kotar meant was:
”Leo… de… ro!”
”…” Klein's gaze froze as the Dark Demonic Wolf's mocking smile appeared in his mind.
He wasn't the only one who could stir the remaining divine powers. He could do so, but so could Dark Demonic Wolf Kotar!
Even though this Miracle Invoker didn't know that Wind Angel, Leodero, had already become the Lord of Storms, he naturally knew what to do thanks to Klein's demonstration from before.
Who wouldn't know how to do a simple imitation?
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Silvery-white bolts of lightning smote down like gushing water from a water pipe. They rained over the ruins of the ancient castle, completely drowning all the figures.
