Chapter 220 The Legend of the Demon King

Chapter 220 The Legend of the Demon King
"Before?" There was a hint of confusion in Janos' voice, and there was an obvious pause, as if he was thinking and recalling. After a while, he explained with emotion and as if he was following the procedure. "Maybe I made a mistake before."

"It's not a mistake, but a change of person." Lucian, who was eavesdropping outside, muttered again in his heart, while also thinking about the real purpose of the soul hunter who had prevented Harvey from going to the northern demon nest.

"The reason why I want to let you go is because of my considerations..." Janos began to speak in the house, and Lucian outside the house might have listened more carefully than Harvey.

"Miss, we should go back. Teacher Niafu will check on your course progress later." At this moment, Mir, the maid who was in charge of taking care of Lula, directly grabbed Lucian's hand.

Lucian was stunned and subconsciously wanted to struggle. After all, maybe in a little while, he would be able to hear some secret information about the northern demon nest.

But as the actor of Lula, when he was not using ink or distorting the laws or circumventing the rules of dreams, his physical strength was forcibly suppressed to an extremely low level, and he could not struggle to break free from Mil's wrist at all.

"I don't want to leave!" Lucian sighed in his heart, but Janos, who heard the noise in the house, had stopped talking and opened the door a crack. He saw Lucian squatting outside the door and Mil who was about to pull Lucian up from the ground.

"What's wrong?" Janos' voice was gentle and calm.

“I want to hear my father talk about the demons!” Lucian made up his mind and acted like a child.

"Miss, Teacher Niafu will be here soon..." Mil reminded in a low voice, and at the same time explained the whole story to Janos.

"Okay, okay, go to class first. If you are interested, after you finish class, Dad will tell you the story of the five warriors fighting the devil." Janos looked at Lucian and felt that he was just a child throwing a tantrum and refusing to go to class. He comforted him and then cooperated with Mil to take Lucian back to his room.

"Children are trouble..." After being forced to return to his room, Lucian listened to the well-dressed tutor talking about etiquette with some boredom, but his heart was full of helplessness.

"Teacher Niyafu's mood is a little bit gloomy, as if she has encountered something, but her mood is bright and a little abnormal. She must be forcing herself to be energetic in order to teach me..."

Out of boredom, Lucian quietly began to hone his talents and began to check the emotions of his tutor through his mind-reading talent.

"It doesn't matter what happens to me, but what about Michelle?" Soon, as Lucian's observation became more and more detailed, he heard a voice from Teacher Niafu.

Is she worried about someone, even more than her own life? Lucian tilted his head slightly. At this time, he was basically sure that Teacher Niafu was not played by a player, but an ordinary person with her own story in the dream.

"Perhaps I can try to use Teacher Niafu's voice?" Lucian thought to himself. The talent he awakened was more of an auxiliary one, and not very useful in combat, but after listening to Niafu's voice, he came up with a bold idea.

"Okay, take a break first and continue later." Halfway through the class, Niafu clapped her hands gently, indicating that Lucian could pause for a moment and move around a little to relax his body.

But she just sat there silently. Although her sitting posture could be described as elegant, if you looked closely, you could find that she seemed to be forcing a smile.

"Teacher Niaf, is there something wrong with you?" Lucian took the initiative to move forward, his eyes fixed on Niaf's eyes. The power of his mind-reading talent reached its maximum at this moment. At this moment, he seemed to have turned into Niaf herself, witnessing the most heart-wrenching thing for her at this moment.

"Michelle, Michelle..." The picture shows a thin boy lying on a hospital bed. One can even see wisps of black air on the boy's chest. Next to him are two people wearing white priest uniforms and the six-pointed star holy emblem of the Awakening Temple on their heads.

"Ma'am, the evil spirit has entered your body. If you don't purify it in time, once your body is corroded by the evil spirit, even if you can be saved, your body will definitely become very weak, and you may not even wake up in your lifetime..."

A priest who looked a little older had an old voice, but every word he said seemed to hit Niaf's heart. In this mind-reading environment, Lucian even felt his heart aching.

“But… I can’t afford the holy water purification fee for now…” Lucian shifted his gaze away from Niaf and saw the image of Niaf whose nails had dug deeply into her flesh.

The next moment, the picture shattered, and Lucian's vision returned to the dream world.

"It seems that it is to treat her child, but unfortunately, the treatment in the Awakening Temple requires the consumption of very precious 'divine power', so the cost is very high. Not to mention that Niafu's child was attacked by evil spirits, and holy water is needed to remove the evil spirits."

Lucian understood what happened, but when he looked at Niaf, he found that a faint black color, representing malice, appeared around her body.

"I... I'm fine." Niafu turned her head away awkwardly, but her hands began to make small movements unconsciously, as if she was protesting, or trying hard to convince herself.

Lucian's pupils shrank slightly. At this moment, he understood the meaning of Niaf's words "It doesn't matter what happens to me".

It was obvious that Niafu was planning to take advantage of the opportunity to become her etiquette teacher and go all out, and her target might be herself!

Thinking of this, Lucian took a step back quickly and calmly, with all kinds of thoughts flashing through his mind quickly.

But soon, he thought of a way. He looked at Niafu, who seemed to be struggling between the good and evil sides of her heart, and smiled sweetly.

"Teacher... can you help me?" Lucian looked at Niaf, then took off a gem worn by Lula and held it in his own hand.

Niaf's attention was also attracted by Lucian. She looked at the gem in Lucian's hand, with a struggle in her eyes.

"Teacher, I want to go out and play, but Sister Mir insists that I study in my room. Teacher, if you can help me, I will give this to you." Lucian said, handing the gem in his hand towards Niafu.

At the same time, he was also prepared to fight back to prevent any unexpected situation from causing him to be instantly kidnapped by Niafu.

"No..." Niafu subconsciously frowned and wanted to refuse, but the image of her child lying on the hospital bed emerged in her mind, and her psychological defense became shaky at this moment.

“Teacher, please help me…” Lucian whispered, winking at Niafu. “I have already mastered what you just taught me. It’s just practice later. I can practice slowly when I have time. And I guarantee that I can stand up to your inspection.”

Lucian observed Niaf's emotions as he spoke. After noticing that the light black air currents had gradually subsided, Lucian felt relieved. He then struck while the iron was hot. "If the teacher feels that this is a little difficult, I can pay with mana crystals. I heard from my brother that someone picked up this kind of stone in the wild before and sold it to the Awakening Temple for a lot of money!"

"Magic Crystal Stone..." Niafu's body trembled slightly, because this kind of stone is one of the core materials for making holy water. Priest Stanley also said before that if she could get the Magic Crystal Stone, the Awakening Temple would be willing to exchange holy water with her.

So for Niafu, the magic crystal is her current weakness! And if it can be obtained so easily, it seems to be better than the method she originally thought of.

However, when Niafu thought about the fact that she had done something in front of her child that violated etiquette and what she had always adhered to, she couldn't help but feel a strong sense of betrayal and shame.

“Michelle…” Niafu said in a very low voice, as if she had made up her mind. She gritted her teeth and looked at Lucian. “Just this once.”

Lucian smiled widely.

……

"Very good, let's move on to the next set of exercises. Don't shake your arms too much when walking, and keep your body..." In the classroom, Niafu was shouting slogans as usual, but the students in front of her became air, and Lucian had already left the room under her cover.

There are some emotional fluctuations in the room on the left in front. They should be two servants who are taking a rest. Please keep your voice down...

After gaining his freedom, Lucian advanced cautiously inside the mansion with the help of his mental power and his mind-reading talent.

With the help of coincidences, he would quickly squat down when a servant turned around and enter his blind spot to avoid observation, or he would use his keen emotional perception ability to enter an empty room where some servants were and avoid the two servants who were about to meet head-on...

Soon, Lucian returned to Harvey's study.

"Unfortunately, the chat is over." Lucian's eyes swept across Harvey's study, but he did not detect the emotions of other people. He couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, but still carefully went into the half-open study.

“That’s it.” Lucian quickly searched through some paper files on the desk and soon found some information about the northern demon nest.

“What’s in there?” Lucian was also somewhat curious about the two demon nests. He silently and quickly browsed through the detailed information in front of him and memorized it quickly in his mind.

Suspected to be related to the 'Devil'?
Lucian looked at one of the pieces of information. On the file, there was a drawing of a heavy sword surrounded by demonic energy. On the blade of the heavy sword, there were also complex and strange special patterns.

Even Lucian felt a sense of oppression just by looking at the scroll, as if something was pressing on his heart, making him feel extremely depressed.

"Demon King... Demon King..." Lucian whispered the name softly. This was the sleeping leader of the demons, and the source of the birth of all demons and even the demon nest.

However, there are few records about the Demon King. Lucian only knows that he is the leader of the demons and will awaken in the demon tide in a year and a half, wanting to bring the world into the abyss.

A group of "brave men" led by Rafael will shoulder the heavy responsibility of slaying the Demon King and resisting the large number of demons emerging in the demon tide...

"Oh, right... Janos seemed to have mentioned the legend of the five warriors fighting the Demon King!" Lucian suddenly thought of something and couldn't help but pat his head. Isn't the information clue about the Demon King that he has been thinking about right next to him?

Thinking of this, Lucian couldn't help but speed up. After quickly recording some useful information inside Harvey's study, he quickly turned back.

……

"The story of the five warriors fighting the demon king actually tells the history of the founding of our human kingdom. Although this part of history has been deliberately erased, it is still passed down orally within our major families."

In the afternoon, under Lucian's pestering, Janos finally put down some of the things in his hands and began to tell Lucian the legend of the Demon King.

“Why should this history be erased?” Lucian asked directly, expressing his confusion with a look of great curiosity.

"Haha, because the identity of the Demon King is quite special." Yanos laughed.

"Before he completely fell, he was actually a human being, and even the sixth hero of that era. This is why the holy emblem of the Awakening Temple representing warriors is a six-pointed star instead of a five-pointed star. After all, each corner represents a hero who originally protected the temple."

Lucian's mind was in turmoil, but he continued to listen to Janos's story.

"In that long-ago era, a temple that suppressed demonic energy suddenly descended on the earth. The temple was built to suppress the demons, but the demons were too powerful. Some of the overflowing demonic energy infected many humans and animals, transforming them into the original demons, and then killing them wantonly."

"Afterwards, the humans who were unable to bear the annoyance organized six warriors as an exploration team to enter the temple that fell from the sky, and to explore the source of the demonic energy and find a way to deal with the demons."

"Inside the temple, they heard the voice of God and obtained six awakening stones, representing earth, fire, water, wind, light, and darkness. Among them, the light and dark awakening stones are the most powerful."

"After awakening the first six powerful talents, this team became the Six Heroes and led the army to defeat those original demons and established the prototype of today's human kingdom."

“What happened next?” Lucian asked at the right moment.

"Differences, serious differences." Janos raised his head slightly, but his eyes became a little vague.
