Chapter 185 Questioning

After entering the Black Stone Throne, Roy had planned to fight the blood angels head-on after the demon guards consumed them, but Lilith’s appearance broke his original plan.

There was no big shot who disdained to take action and just watch the drama from the side. After Lilith appeared, she directly attacked the blood angels. It was probably because this was the demon king city, so Lilith naturally could not tolerate the angels acting wildly here. Moreover, as she had said earlier, the reincarnation pool required energy. If the demon guards died in large numbers, it would consume a lot of the reincarnation pool’s energy.

Of course, Roy was happy that the big shot took action. But he did not expect that Lilith would not kill the blood angels directly but instead charm them and watch them kill each other… Lilith was simply toying with them.

The life of the demon king must be very boring… Roy thought.

The blood angels naturally understood that their companions were charmed by Lilith, so they tried their best to avoid their companions’ attacks. They could not bear to fight back, and as they dodged, they shouted loudly at their companions, attempting to wake them up.

But it was all futile. Under Lilith’s powerful control, the blood angels had no chance of escaping. Before long, a blood angel finally fell under his companions’ swords. Two charmed blood angels pierced his chest one after the other. When they killed him, the eyes of the two charmed blood angels were still red, completely lacking any mercy. “Demon woman!!” After seeing this scene, the leader of the blood angels roared angrily at Lilith, then decisively swung his sword and killed a charmed companion in front of him.

The other blood angel who was still clear-headed followed suit and cooperated with the leading blood angel to kill the two remaining charmed blood angels.

They had personally ended the lives of their companions. This blow was extremely huge to the angels. In such a short time, only the two of the original six blood angels remained. But before they could recover from their grief, Lilith raised her hand again and easily controlled them.

But this time, Lilith did not have them fight each other. Instead, she controlled them to cross their angelic swords and swipe them across each other’s necks!

Golden blood sprayed out more than a foot high. At the very last moment of their lives, the two blood angels finally escaped her control, but they slowly fell to the ground with confusion in their eyes…

“Done!” Lilith clapped her hands lightly, looking as though it was as effortless as coming out to throw out a pile of trash.

The six blood angels that could kill a demon lord were killed like puppets in Lilith’s hands. Roy could not help but s.h.i.+ver after seeing this. Lilith’s charm control ability was too bug-like. It seemed like he had to make some equipment to guard against this kind of control in the future…

All along, because he was a frost demon and used frost power, Roy was the only one controlling others when facing multiple enemies. But now that he saw Lilith’s power, even he felt a little afraid.

The blood angels were dead, and six blood-red souls with a golden color in the center floated out. These souls that the Blood Oath had stimulated were supposed to dissipate like ordinary souls, but Lilith stretched out her hand, and the six souls flew in front of her. Roy did not know what kind of magic she used, but she quickly controlled the process of the souls dissipating and put away the six souls.

“The souls of blood angels are really rare. I don’t know how different they are from the souls of ordinary angels, so I can research them!” Lilith murmured to herself, but her words seemed to be meant for Roy and Julia. After the matter with the blood angels was over, she turned around and looked at Roy and Julia. “Now, it’s your turn! Follow me!”

Lilith’s tone revealed an irrefutable meaning, causing Julia to look at Roy worriedly. She did not know what Lilith was thinking.

The Mad Queen Lilith nickname was not for nothing. Lilith was notorious for being temperamental, and she never acted according to reason, which was why she had this nickname. Although Samael had indeed granted Julia permission to access the Black Stone s.p.a.ce, it was now Lilith who made the decisions in the demon king city. Who knew what her att.i.tude toward this was? Therefore, it was not impossible for her to be angry and punish Julia and Roy…

The two of them followed Lilith into the depths of the demon king city. Although Roy’s heart was thumping, he could not help but curiously look at the scenery along the way.

Lilith led them around the city, and they finally came to… a bedchamber!

The reason why he said it was a bedchamber was that there was a huge bed in this hall! Although this bed was not as big as a fantastical fifty-thousand-square-meter house, it still occupied about half of the hall. In particular, the carvings of skulls and demons on this bed were even more eye-catching

What Roy and Julia did not know was that there was only one throne in this castle, and that was Samael’s throne. Even Lilith did not dare to sit on it, so Lilith brought Roy and Julia to her bedchamber to discuss some matters.

The light sound of the chains came as Lilith lay down on the big bed. She lay on her side seductively and looked at Roy and Julia. They could only obediently kneel on one knee in front of the bed and wait for Lilith to inquire.

Lilith asked Julia, “Since you’re Samael’s personal guard, why are you here with this frost demon?”

Julia did not dare to hide it, so she talked about the battle between Samael and the Destroyer. However, she remembered what Roy had reminded her before, so even though she told Lilith about Samael’s situation, she did not beseech her to save him.

Roy was observing Lilith’s expression from the corner of his eyes without showing any trace. Sure enough, when she heard that Samael was defeated and sealed, Lilith did not show any surprise. She only said, “So, it’s like this. Okay, get up. It’s not your fault. With your strength as a high-rank demon, it’s indeed difficult for you to intervene in the battle between demon kings!”

Julia replied respectfully and stood up. Then Lilith looked at Roy.

The moment Lilith asked her question, Roy was shocked!

“I haven’t seen a high-rank demon frost demon for a long time. Are you Demon Osiris?”

“Your Majesty Lilith, how do you know my demon name?” Roy asked carefully.

“Because not long before you came, a visitor came to this s.p.a.ce!” Lilith was lying on the bed with an arm holding her head and smiling. “This visitor was a Horseman of the Apocalypse…”

Roy heaved a sigh of relief. “Was it Fury?”

However, Lilith’s answer was unexpected. “No, it was Death!” Roy was stunned. “Death? Then, how do you…”

“Because he learned your name from Fury and told me after coming here!” Lilith explained.

Roy was relieved. He quickly recalled to mind that in the original game plot, Death seemed to have come to the Black Stone and seen Lilith. However, why was Death so fast? But then he remembered that the flow of time in these alternate s.p.a.ces was not the same as the flow of time in the main world. Some were faster, while others were slower. After the Charred Council imprisoned War, Death had been searching for ways to resurrect humanity in various alternate s.p.a.ces in order to clear War’s name. Because of the differences in the flow of time, his progress might be much faster than Roy had expected…

“Has only Death come here?” Roy asked, wondering where Fury was.

However, Lilith did not answer and instead told Roy with great interest, “You should have seen the ma.s.sive ‘Corruption’ vortex in the sky above the demon king city. In your words, this Corruption power in other worlds is known as the ‘Void’, so I’m quite curious about your experience. Tell me the story you told Fury!” “Yes!” Roy replied respectfully while his thoughts moved quickly.

Clearly, Death has come here to see Lilith. I don’t know what his purpose was, but he must have talked with Lilith about Corruption power. Otherwise, Lilith would not have deliberately left Julia and me behind to talk after meeting the storyteller. Roy was thinking about why Lilith wanted to hear the story he made up again. What is her motive…

Moreover, most importantly, Fury found Death, so does he know from Fury about whether I’m pursuing the secrets of the nephilim, and has he told Lilith my intentions…

If possible, of course Roy wanted to obtain the secrets of the nephilim from Lilith, the creator of the nephilim, rather than from Fury, a second-generation nephilim. But Roy was really uncertain about what kind of att.i.tude Lilith would have after knowing his intentions. He was only a high-rank demon and was too far away from the demon king hierarchy… Therefore, when he made a deal with Fury, it was only settling for the second-best solution…

His mind turned quickly, but he did not delay and recounted the story he told Fury…
