I became a vampire princess and then a dragon girl?

"No, the magic system used by the enemy was lost long ago, so I have to do it."

"But--!"

"Don't worry, I can still hold on for a while. That's it!"

After saying that, without giving Melceris any chance to object, Melceris attacked directly in the direction of the demon, and Melceris had no choice but to clench her fists helplessly, and then she and Elizabeth turned into a beam of light and flew away.

§240 The Future Appears

"Huh? Looks like you've been left behind?"

Seeing the two people turning into streams of light and leaving, he had no intention of stopping them. Instead, he looked with interest at Melchis who was attacking him alone.

"..."

However, Melchis had no intention of paying any attention to him. She just silently waved the golden magic blade in her hand and attacked him.

"Humph."

The demon god, realizing that he was asking for trouble, snorted coldly and then moved forward to meet the enemy. He left a clone at the original place and began to control the black mud ball to launch an attack together.

"'Living Spirit Barrier'"

He raised his hand and used domain magic to divide the battlefield, blocking out the black mud balls and clones. When the swords of the demon and Melhis intersected, the clone that was originally outside the barrier magic suddenly disappeared, and then another clone appeared behind Melhis and stabbed the blade in his hand at her vest.

"Ok?"

However, the demon's attack missed, and Melchis's figure disappeared in an instant, and even the magic barrier was lifted.

When she appeared again, Melchis's figure had appeared in the distance again, widening the distance between her and the demon.

"I understand the principle behind his clones. He can make the possible future appear temporarily in this moment."

Melchis said in a deep voice during the communication magic between the few people.

After the close combat just now and the observation and analysis in the field, she has understood the principle of the demon's ability to clone.

Every time a clone occurs, a magical fluctuation will be transmitted from the two demon gods, and there is no difference in the power levels of the two figures, which means that both are genuine bodies.

So his so-called clone is actually the realization of a possible future in the present.

For example, when they were far away from the demon, the demon could take two actions: stay where he was and attack them with long-range means, or rush forward to fight them in close combat. The ability to clone himself showed both possibilities.

When the three of them are besieging, the demon may choose to fight any one of them, and three clones will appear.

Then the demon will choose to keep one of the most advantageous futures according to the situation of the battle, and the other clones will disappear.

As for when they were close, the clones seemed to appear based on the possibility that they failed to successfully block the demon's attack, so the clones flashed behind them and launched a pincer attack.

As for the limitations of this trick, after the future is determined, the clone corresponding to the other future will disappear. For example, after they fight with the close-range demon god, the future will be fixed in the close combat between the two sides. The possibility of the demon god launching an attack from a distance will disappear, which will also cause the distant clone to disappear.

However, the actual situation is a little more complicated, because from the situation just now, the demon can delay this process to a certain extent, and even make a non-existent future happen. The specific limitations are unknown.

For example, in close combat, as they blocked the demon's attack, there would theoretically be no future of failure, but the clone based on that future still appeared behind them and attacked them.

And the most troublesome thing is that there seems to be no limit on the number of times and intervals of use of this trick, and it can be used continuously.

That is to say, on the surface it is four against one, but in actual combat, the number of opponents they face will fluctuate between one and four.

As for how to deal with this clone, theoretically it is not complicated. We just need to determine the future that has not yet happened as soon as possible.

Even if the Demon God could use some means to prolong the possibility of a non-existent future, there would probably be more restrictions, otherwise he would not use it so rarely.

But it is not easy to do. After all, the attack of the other clone is real, and it will not be a good feeling if you get hit by it.

"Anyway, let's gather together first."

As Melchis finished speaking, Elizabeth, Melceris, and Bestia suddenly flew out and gathered around her.

During the battle just now, Bestia had recovered and summoned his weapon spirit - a pair of boxing gloves, which were quite suitable for this guy.

""appear""

In response to their reaction, the demon god used the same old trick again and split into two figures, one far away and one near, to attack them.

"Attack simultaneously!"

Facing the aggressive demon, Melchis gave orders decisively, and she and Melceris once again set up a magic circle and aimed at the demon in the distance, but did not choose to fire it immediately, but waited for the other side to be ready.

As for the close combat, Elizabeth and the Beast King took the initiative to take the lead.

Clang——Boom——

In the instant before the fist and sword intersected, the "Ode to Life" that had been accumulating power for a while burst out and attacked the demon in the distance. At the same time, Elizabeth and the others also collided with the demon.

"Did you find out..."

Seeing that both parties had timed the situation so accurately and feeling the power rapidly flowing through his body, the Demon God frowned slightly.

I didn't expect that his tricks would be seen through so quickly. It seems that I have to try another method.

"Future Limitations: Mobile"

The clone that was under siege by Elizabeth and the other person disappeared like a bubble. This time, the demon god chose to attack from a distance. Then, the dark beam of light that was fighting against the Hymn of Life swept towards Elizabeth and the other person like a huge lightsaber.

"what?!"

Subconsciously, she wanted to avoid it, but Elizabeth found that both she and the Beast King were like being nailed to the spot and unable to move. In desperation, she had to use defensive magic to take on the attack.

boom--

With a terrifying sound, the Hymn of Life and the dark energy column both hit their respective targets. As the smoke dissipated, Elizabeth looked a little embarrassed, but the Demon God was obviously prepared and blocked the attack unscathed.

"What just happened..."

After clearing the areas on her body where her defensive magic had been eroded, Elizabeth frowned slightly. The feeling of being unable to move had disappeared, and she could move freely again. The same was true for the Beast King.

But unlike the general methods of restricting people's movements, she did not feel imprisoned or anything like that, she was simply unable to move.

Moreover, the Beast King was very resistant to that kind of ability. Normally, only she would be imprisoned. Why were both of them controlled at the same time?

Tsk, he is worthy of being a demon god, with so many strange methods emerging one after another.

§241 Future Limitations

"[Future Limitation Magic]"

Without giving Elizabeth time to analyze the situation, the demon god unfolded a dark magic circle in front of her again and chased after her. It seemed that he had set his sights on Elizabeth.

There was no way. It was daytime and the sun was shining brightly, and there was still some time before sunset. Elizabeth's strength would still decline. She was the weakest among the four people present.

"Eh? Magic can't be used?!"

Subconsciously, she wanted to use defensive magic to resist the attack again, but this time her fingertips failed to draw a magic circle. It was Martina who acted on her own and pulled Elizabeth's body to the side, barely forcing the attack away.

"The demon seems to be able to prevent others from performing certain actions for a short period of time. I was unable to use magic just now."

During the communication between the four people, Elizabeth spoke uncertainly about what had happened to her, and her expression became even uglier.

At this time, the restriction on Elizabeth had disappeared again, and she could use magic attacks normally again.

As a result, before they could come up with a solution to the previous trick of future manifestation, the enemy once again came up with a new trick and waited for them to spend time to crack it.

From the beginning of the battle to now, in the few times they fought with the demon, they were basically being led by the opponent and had no control over the battle. This feeling of being controlled by others and being unable to display their strength is really uncomfortable.

Obviously, in terms of strength alone, the demon god in front of them was only slightly stronger than them, but with the support of various endless means, he was able to fight them on equal terms. No wonder the demon god in his once complete state could suppress the entire continent head-on.

But no matter what, the current battle cannot be avoided.

With this thought, Elizabeth regained her spirits and aimed her scythe at the demon that was attacking her again...

—·—·—·—·—·—·—

On the other side, Eve was thrown out from a space crack with a dizzy feeling. She spun around in the air for several times before she stabilized her body. Her long silver hair was already messy, and she looked a little embarrassed.

"Can someone tell me what just happened..."

Holding her forehead with one hand and covering her mouth with the other, Eve said that she was feeling a little overwhelmed.

Originally, everything went smoothly after entering the door opened by the afterimage of the God of Creation. However, for some reason, the originally stable passage was suddenly hit several times in succession by the outside, and then began to become unstable, with signs of collapse.

Eve, who was in the middle of it, naturally didn't feel good. If she were to describe it herself, it was like being stuffed into a washing machine with a wash-and-spin cycle turned on, which made her head hurt.

What's even worse is that she needs to spare some energy to maintain the stability of the passage, otherwise the exit might be opened in some weird place.

Even though she was trying her best to maintain it, the exit was still quite a bit crooked from the original location. But it wasn't a big problem, she could just teleport there.

"[Teleport: Outside the World Tree King's Court]"

As Eve finished speaking, there was a somewhat awkward silence.

"Ah, teleportation is prohibited."

Feeling the feedback when the magic failed, Eve shook her head helplessly. Fortunately, the giant tree in the distance was quite conspicuous, and she just needed to fly towards that side. However, when she looked closely, why did the giant tree seem to be a little wrong?

Before entering the wonderland, the giant tree from a distance gave Eve the feeling of a vibrant atmosphere, but now there was no such feeling at all, and black smoke could be vaguely seen rising from the foot of the giant tree, as if there was a fire burning underneath but no one was trying to put it out. This was not a normal thing for the elves.

As Eve got closer to the giant tree, she saw the reason why the tree had changed - only half of it was left.

Previously, because Eve was facing the intact side of the giant tree, she was unable to discover this incident in time.

"What happened..."

She knew the people who would be at the festival. Not only would everyone from the three poles of the continent be there, including her mother, but also Melchis, who had awakened as the God of the Spirits, how could this place be like this?!

What exactly happened outside during the time she was in the strange realm?

"call--"

Eve suppressed the questions in her mind and took a deep breath. The blood-colored magic power condensed into a pair of huge bat wings behind her. Then she turned into a blood-colored stream of light and rushed towards the giant tree.

No matter what, let's hurry back to the giant tree first. The Mother of Elves or the Mother should be there. We'll know everything if we talk to them face to face.

On the way over, Eve also saw a huge magic barrier that briefly appeared in the air. It seemed that the battle over there was still going on.

Due to the distance, it was difficult to see who were on both sides of the battle, but one side should be his mother and the others, while the other side seemed to have only one person, or at most two?

Eve found it hard to believe what she saw. How could there be someone on the continent who could contend with her mother and the others on his own?

However, before officially entering, Eve unexpectedly encountered a somewhat embarrassing situation - a blood-colored barrier blocked her way.

"Ah, no wonder I can't use teleportation magic."

Feeling the power of her mother on the barrier, Eve finally understood why she couldn't teleport directly over just now.

Perhaps in order to prevent the enemy from leaving through teleportation, her mother directly used magic to block this space, but accidentally stopped her as well.

Considering that a battle was going on inside, Eve did not choose to use communication magic to contact Elizabeth.

Since she and Elizabeth belong to the same royal family of vampires and are mother and daughter, she can rely on this kinship to overcome the obstacles of this magic barrier.

And it doesn't take too much time. After all, the obstruction ability of this magic is stronger inside than outside, and the difficulty of leaving is more than one level higher than the difficulty of entering.

"Hmm... is that the case?"

Gently placing her hand on the barrier, Eve then began to synchronize her magic power with Elizabeth's wavelength, creating a small barrier on the barrier to wrap herself in it, and then began to eliminate the part of the barrier in front of her.

"Okay, no problem."

After passing through the barrier, Eve turned around and checked the stability of the barrier behind her, then continued to fly towards the giant tree with confidence.

But this time, before setting off, she cast a layer of concealment magic on herself, wanting to see if she could catch her opponent off guard. It didn't cost anything to try anyway.

As for Wude? What is that? Is it delicious?

§242 Rescue

When Eve was trying to smuggle herself across the river, the devil attacked everyone again.
