Chapter 122 The Prayer of Expelling Angels

Roy stood where he was for a while and found that nothing had happened, so he could only try again.

He thought that the fluctuations were something like spatial fluctuations, but this time, Roy was prepared and realized that he was mistaken after experimenting again.

The effect of the fluctuations turned out to be a disturbance to the power of the world!

The moment he activated the scroll, Roy found that the repulsive force of the world that had been acting on him all along, and had been continuously strengthening, had an intense change in strength. It suddenly became much stronger before falling back to its original level in an instant. Although this change happened very quickly, he was able to feel it when he sensed it carefully.

Roy immediately realized that the effect of activating this scroll was probably another type of ‘expulsion prayer’, and it belonged to the expulsion prayer used by demons

This expulsion prayer was not meant to expel demons but to expel angels! This was because it was not just demons who were beings that belonged to another world, but angels were as well, meaning that the repulsive force of a world was not only effective on demons but also on angels. Since there was a special incantation that could trigger the repulsive force of a world to expel demons, then there would also be an incantation that could trigger the repulsive force of a world to expel angels! The reason why that high-rank flame demon brought this scroll with him was to use it to fight against angels. After all, compared to low-rank demons, high-rank demons were more likely to encounter angels when they went to other worlds.

Tia Dalma had said before that in order to resist this high-rank flame demon, the people of the church had used a type of magic to pray for an angel to descend. But the summoning was unsuccessful, probably because this high-rank flame demon had used the power of this scroll. Such fluctuations in the repulsive force of a world would indeed interfere with the formation of a world teleportation gate. Of course, not only would the Gates of Heaven not open, but the Gates of the Abyss would not open either, so that high-rank flame demon could not summon other demons to come and help.

Moreover, Roy guessed that it was not just the demons’ expulsion prayer. Maybe even the expulsion prayer on the side of Heaven was the same. They were all indiscriminate attacks that could not distinguish between friend and foe. Any being from another world would be affected.

Roy thought of the attacks of the expulsion prayer that he had suffered when he fought against the Spanish Invincible Armada. It was obvious that this expulsion prayer had been sent by angels to humans to let them deal with and expel demons. Because humans were creatures of this world, the repulsive force of the world would not affect them. Therefore, using this expulsion prayer was much more convenient than using angels.

This kind of incantation that could invoke the repulsive force of a world was not a type of magic but more inclined to the effects of the spirit of language. Thus, the magic power that Roy had input earlier was just like having it sink into the ocean and did not cause any reaction. Instead, it activated after using demon blood. This might be because the medium of blood could also produce an effect like the power of the spirit of language.

However, this method of activating it with blood was probably not the best method to use the expulsion prayer. Otherwise, the repulsive force of the world that Roy felt just now should not have been the same fluctuations as interference, but the kind that continuously strengthened.

The best way was probably to chant these words directly… However, this scroll was just a rubbing after all, and the power of the spirit of language attached to it was incomparable to the original version. Moreover, the sixth chapter of this Demon Bible was relatively long, and there were some blurry parts in the middle, making it very difficult to recite completely.

From the looks of it, this so-called Demon Bible still had some unknown effects. Unfortunately, demons had not done well in disseminating it. Not only had they failed to spread the Demon Bible to the human world, but many demons in the Abyss did not even know of the existence of such a Demon Bible… Thus, people had even changed the name of the expulsion prayer to exorcism prayer, thinking that only demons could be expelled, but they did not know that angels could also be expelled.

In any case, getting this scroll was an unexpected joy for Roy. This meant that he would have an additional method to fight against angels when he encountered them in the future.

In fact, he did not even need to fight against angels. When he saw signs of angels coming, he could directly use this expulsion prayer to prevent angels from coming!

Of course, Roy needed to find a way to modify it. Since he knew that the repulsive force of a world could be affected by others, then he could actually create an expulsion prayer himself. But creating something out of thin air consumed a large number of souls, so it would be better to use the power on the scroll and modify it directly, which might save a lot.

Ca.s.sandra was currently processing the slave traders and had not returned, so Roy had nothing to do and decided to start on it.

He opened the system interface, found the material he originally had drawn for Frostmourne, and erased the demon characters that he had randomly drawn on the sword. Then he stored the scroll in the system and turned it into a similar material. He then used the clip method to cut out the demon characters on the scroll, placed them on the sword blade, and arranged them!

For something like the spirit of language, its power did not come from the carriers but from the character symbols, so the scroll itself was nothing special at all. What was special were the characters on it. Roy’s current process was actually like transcribing them. This way, it was equivalent to having Frostmourne carry the expulsion prayer, and the original scroll was destroyed.

After completing the transcription, Roy defined the attribute.

Expulsion: When activating the characters on the sword blade with magic power, the power of the expulsion prayer contained within will activate. The expulsion prayer will not affect the sword wielder.

Roy did not specifically define the expulsion prayer and instead used the power of the original characters on the scroll. This way, he would not need to consume additional souls. But when he activated the expulsion prayer, he certainly did not want himself to be affected, so he specially set an exemption for himself.

Of course, this was only if he activated the expulsion prayer. If an enemy initiated an expulsion prayer, he would not be able to avoid it.

He could not set himself to have complete immunity to the repulsive force of a world because such an attribute definition meant deviating from the rules of the world, and the consumption would definitely be an astounding figure. Even if Roy could circ.u.mvent this rule like César and get himself a demon-human body, it would not actually be considered immunity to the force of world repulsion because a demon-human body could only remain in the current world forever. He would also be repulsed when he entered other worlds.

After adding this expulsion attribute, if Roy encountered enemies that were angels or creatures from other worlds in the future, Roy could let them have a taste of being expelled. If the other party did not want to be disturbed by this expelling force, they would have to consume more magic power to resist it, which would invisibly weaken the opponent.

After completing it, Roy chose to materialize.

Due to him making modifications to the original foundation, Frostmourne did not disappear beforehand. When he materialized, a ray of light flashed on the sword, and the original character symbols were erased. Then the character symbols that came from the Demon Bible slowly emerged on the sword blade.

Even though the text was moved onto the sword, its power of the spirit of language did not change. After the text was engraved onto the sword, it still had traces of corrosion, and even the Abyss aura contained within it appeared. Now, Roy’s Frostmourne not only had the auras of darkness and ice but also the scents of sulfur and flames from the Abyss aura. These auras mixed together, but there was no conflict, causing Frostmourne to become even more terrifying and strange… Roy raised the sword, looked at it, and found that the system had unexpectedly helped him automatically fill in the unclear words during the materialization. This was equivalent to the current Frostmourne being a new item that had inherited the content of the Demon Bible’s sixth chapter.

Roy had paid more than 1,400 souls for this modification. It almost caught up to the cost of creating Frostmourne. The addition of the text might not have cost too much, but it was relatively expensive to set himself exempt.

Of course, Roy could accept this price of souls compared to a self-made expulsion prayer…

After Roy completed the modification and stored Frostmourne, Ca.s.sandra returned. And beside her were dozens of ghouls that had been transformed from the slave traders…

Unlike the priest from the Inquisition, the ghouls transformed from these slave traders were not conscious and completely under Ca.s.sandra’s control.

Ca.s.sandra offered all of their souls to Roy. Among them, there were eleven souls that were pitch-black fallen souls, possibly from the leaders of the slave traders. Roy was certainly happy to see such fallen souls, because according to the calculations of the Horadric Cube, a fallen soul was equivalent to ninety-nine ordinary souls! Eleven fallen souls was equivalent to more than a thousand ordinary souls.

These ugly ghouls with saliva dripping from their mouths still had an instinctive fear of Roy when they saw him, and their entire bodies were crawling on the ground. Roy ignored their fear and said to Ca.s.sandra, “Now, your only target for revenge is your despicable father, right?”

“Yes!” Ca.s.sandra nodded. “In fact, I’m not willing to call him my father. My only relative in this world is my mom!”

“Okay, let’s go to Spain!”
