You call this magic?

"Why didn't you respond to me, Master Solitaire?" She slowly stood up. "Ah, as that master said, you have betrayed us?"

At this moment, Solitier's stand suddenly felt an extremely powerful pressure coming down from the sky, as if the air suddenly turned into a huge rock, pressing her stand to the ground.

The next second, Solitier's stand was crushed by the huge pressure and turned into magic and disappeared into the air.

In the market town of Ang, Solitiel suddenly opened her eyes and gasped in fear.

Even if that was just her stand, several times weaker than her real body, but being able to crush her to death without even being able to cast a single spell, this was no longer an ordinary demon.

"What did you see?" asked Fulilian.

"Gravity... No, it should be [Air Solidification Magic]." It took Solitier a while to recover. Even if it was a substitute, for Solitier, who had attached his consciousness to it, it was tantamount to death. Being able to recover in such a short time was already remarkable. "I don't remember any demon who could use this magic."

"Are we going to arrest him and interrogate him?" Fulilian looked at Ethan.

"Well... let's get ready to go out. I'll go catch that guy." Ethan said.

No one doubted that Ethan could do it. There were really some very strange things in his magic system.

There is even no need for him to show up in person.

In the forest, looking at the silver-white figure in front of him, the demon's eyes became weird: "What are you?"

It didn't just wait for Ethan's answer, but while asking, the magic of solidifying the air was completed. In Ethan's eyes, this was not just solidifying the air, it could also make the air form a very exaggerated mass to press down, which was a bit unreasonable.

From that face, whose features were invisible, Ethan's voice rang out: "[Petrification]."

The demon's movements froze in place. After saying the words "all petrified", it could no longer move its body, including its mouth, and could not even make a sound.

The air twisted, and Ethan used [Teleport] to appear behind the demon. At the same time, the mass solidified from the air above Ethan's head fell to the ground with a loud bang.

Ethan opened his eyes again in the market.

"We've trapped it, let's go."

"Apart from that guy, are there any other demons?" Fulilian frowned and asked beside him. At this moment, there was even some obvious murderous intent in her words.

Frelian learns magic in order to kill demons more efficiently. The title of "Frilian's Destruction" is not something that can be given casually.

This was proof that she was the magician who killed the most demons during her time in the Brave Squad.

When entering the northern countries, everyone was mentally prepared to encounter demons at any time, but it was really outrageous that they encountered them before they even got deep into the country.

"Nothing has been found yet. Logically speaking, demons usually act alone. If there are other demons around it, it would be a big deal."

"Well, if it really exists, it means that there must be an army of demons nearby." Fulilian stood up expressionlessly and walked out.

Obviously, she was eager to take action.

The three of them walked around the statue of the Brave Squad. Under normal circumstances, they would at least observe it, but at this moment, no one was in the mood to do so.

After leaving the town, the three went straight to the location of the demon clan. Until they arrived, it had been in a petrified state. Although its consciousness existed and it could think and breathe, on the surface it was no different from a person whose time had been suspended.

When it saw Solitaire appear, the magic power in its body fluctuated violently, but Ethan just raised his hand to suppress it.

Don't even think about using any magic in front of Ethan.

Less than a second after he lifted the petrification on the demon's mouth, the demon said, "You are not Lord Sollitir, the great demon. How could there be such a being as you?"

It seemed to recognize Solitaire's identity.

They are not demons, nor humans, but another species that has never existed in this world.

"Are you curious?" Solitiel walked slowly to the demon clan, her red lips gently touching the demon clan's ear, and whispered softly, "Would you like to guess where the real great demon clan Solitiel is?"

"Give up." Just as Solitaire was about to take the next step, Fulilian's voice suddenly rang out, "All interrogation methods are meaningless against the demons. Any attempt to obtain information from them will fail without exception. This has been an absolute experience for thousands of years."

She surveyed the demon woman, "It's best to kill it as soon as possible."

"No, Master, leave it to me here." Ethan came to the demon girl, took Solitaire's hand, and asked her to step back behind him. Then, he rummaged through his backpack, took out a small bottle of Dionysus wine, and gave it to the demon girl without saying a word.

"Okay, go ahead and ask. If she doesn't answer, I lose." Under Fulilian's questioning gaze, Ethan patted his chest confidently and said, "I guarantee it."

As Ethan said, after drinking this drink, it doesn't matter whether you are a human or not, as long as you have thoughts, you will be hypnotized.

Next, it told the whole story of how it came here, just like spilling beans.

The matter was quite simple, and it was caused by the great demon Solitiel.

Although humans may not know her, there are very few demons who don't know her. Her research on human magic is still a reference material used by demons to deal with humans. Such a demon suddenly ran to the central countries inexplicably, so naturally other demons would send people to follow her.

This was sent by [Guillotine Aura], one of the Seven Collapse Sages, a few years ago. In order not to alert the enemy, Aura even did not allow it to kill people.

"Aura?" Ethan's expression was a little strange.

Aura, he is so familiar with her.

Does Ethan have to tell everyone, "I've read her book"?

Volume 3: The Fall of Fulilian (Part 2): Chapter 32: Thinking Too Much Will Only Affect Your Sleep

Just kidding, Ethan's familiarity with Aura is just so-so, definitely not as familiar as Fulilian.

Of course, it is true that I have read the book. After all, the most explosive sentence in this book is the one from the protagonist's mouth, "I have wanted to fuck you for twelve thousand years." Even after so many years, Ethan can still think of that scene the first time he mentions Aura.

That was truly a pure time as a corporate slave.

However, this is not something that can be said. The fun of it can only be enjoyed by Ethan.

"I've almost understood it. However, there are actually guys under Aura who can use this kind of magic. We should kill them as soon as possible." This time, Fulilian did not encounter any obstacles. A simple general attack magic turned the female demons into dust.

It has completely lost its usefulness and being eliminated is the best option.

Solitier was silent for a while. Perhaps the word "traitor" stimulated her. Even though she had only inherited the memory of the great demon Solitier, she could not completely separate herself from the identity of the great demon. After all, at this moment, she was able to grow up by absorbing the nutrients remaining on the body of the great demon Solitier.

Fortunately, it was Ethan, a human with unique vision, who hatched and nurtured Solitude. Now Solitude can live in this world from a human perspective.

"Similar situations will continue to occur after this." Fulilian's voice was low, a clear difference from her time in the Central Kingdoms. "We will continue to eliminate the demons. If you can't accept it, it's not too late to go back now."

"You misunderstood." Solitier came back to his senses. Hearing this, he realized that Fulilian might have misunderstood, and hurriedly explained, "I was just wondering why the great demon Solitier would travel thousands of miles across the northern border barrier to the Central Kingdoms."

At this point, Ethan and Fulilian were stunned, especially Ethan.

Oh yeah, how did she cross the border?

There has long been a magical barrier extending up to the sky on the border between the Northern Kingdoms and the Central Kingdoms. Although she was an unknown great demon, how did Solitiel hide it from the guards of the Northern Fortress and escape to the territory of the Central Kingdoms without being exposed at all, and without causing any problems until she broke into the Goddess Stele and revealed her identity to Ethan?

"No, isn't it in your memory? Why are you asking us?"

Ethan had never thought about this problem before. What he didn't expect was that Solitiel would ask him about it, which made him unable to solve the problem.

Even Fulilian had a confused look on her face.

"I don't know." Solitude revealed a bewildered expression and shook her head. "As far as I can remember, there was no purpose for doing this. It just felt like it had to come, so it came."

For a moment, everyone fell silent.

"Actually, that kind of thing doesn't matter." It was finally Fulilian who broke the deadlock. She took a few steps forward. "Just know that this guy is no longer a demon, but our companion. Overthinking it will only affect your sleep... We still have to travel tomorrow, so let's go to bed early today."

Now that Fulilian had spoken, Solitier and Ethan no longer had any thoughts of pursuing the matter and put it aside for the time being. Perhaps they could only find a reason after they arrived at Solitier's long-term base in the northern countries.

Back in the bustling town, everyone knew how to take things lightly and quickly put the matter aside and continued to enjoy the lively festival.

When they went to sleep at night, the three of them even booked a three-bed room. This was the advantage of not having the two young girls around, as they saved money on accommodation.

It’s just that the other people in the hotel looked at them with somewhat meaningful eyes. Even Ethan could feel someone eavesdropping outside the door in the middle of the night... No, buddy, that’s a pervert, right?

Sadly, I didn't do anything. Besides, even if I did, I'd have put up a soundproof barrier. Okay, what do you want to hear? Eat your shit.

"Well, let's talk about Aura." On the way to the next city, Fulilian said, "To be honest, I didn't expect that guy to come back alive."

"Tell me more." Ethan was very interested.

"When we passed by here, we completely destroyed the army led by the great demon Aura."

The content of this sentence is very terrifying. You have to know that the number of the army led by Qi Bengxian in his heyday is already very scary, not to mention the brave team that wiped out these troops with ease.

In the past, Ethan would only be shocked, but at this moment, he wanted to try Xinmei's swordsmanship.

This is also proof that he is becoming stronger and stronger.

"But in the end, when we dealt with all the enemies, we didn't find Aura. It turns out she's still alive." Fulilian's tone seemed unchanged, but Ethan could tell she was a little furious. "We must kill her, or there will be no peace around here."

"However, Aura's magic is terrifying," Sollitir said with some annoyance. "If you're a warrior and can't stop it from casting spells, you'll inevitably lose and become its puppet. Even a magician won't be able to resist its control if they don't have enough magic power."

[Magic that makes people obey], after all, requires complete control, and the conditions for successful activation are also very harsh.

"As long as the magic power is stronger than this, Aura will be controlled in reverse."

Having said that, the three of them suddenly looked at each other.

Fulilian, a magician who has lived for a thousand years, has countless magical powers in her body.

Solitier completely inherited everything from the great demon Solitier, including the powerful magic power in her body, and possessed a magic power reserve almost equal to that of Fulilian.

Ethan, even he himself didn't know how much magic power he had reserved. With the help of the grace skill, it was definitely a lot, but he couldn't really say exactly how much. But in a word, it was no less than what Fulilian had.

Ethan's eyes flickered. "So, if the three of us stand in front of it and it casts any spell, it will only cause Aura to be controlled in reverse. Is that right?"

"Maybe." Fulilian hesitated and was quite serious at first, but when she thought of this possibility, she immediately relaxed.

Yes, Philen and Yubel, who didn’t have enough magic power, didn’t come at all.

Shouldn't it be Aura who calls for help?

"However, just like the magician before, no one knows what kind of subordinates Aura currently possesses," Fulilian said. "Before we can test out the magic they use, we can't easily reveal our own cards."

Volume 3: The Death of Fulilian (Part 2): Chapter 33: Do You Know the "Magic Net"?

Imperial Capital, Censorship Office.

This is the border of the capital of the most powerful country in the entire northern world. The number of demons here is extremely small, much safer than other countries. The number of refugees and immigrants waiting to enter the country every day is quite exaggerated.

"This is the Northern Empire..." Xiutark was shocked. "Great, there are so many people."

Fortunately, they had special status and did not need to queue up. They entered the country directly through a special entrance, but they also had to go through a special inspection process.

No one envies Shutark, because anyone who enters from here, if anything goes wrong, will spend much longer in jail than an ordinary person, and even after they get out, they will basically be a useless person.

"This is the capital, kid." Shulit patted Shutark's shoulder, a relieved smile on her face. "Don't worry, those demons won't even think of getting close to here."

"Oh, that's great." Xiutark's excitement came from the bottom of his heart. How should I put it? The experience along the way was full of twists and turns.

They have basically been moving at full speed for the past few months. Whenever they encounter a town along the way, they only replenish supplies without resting. Unless they arrive at a town at night, they basically take turns driving the carriage.

In Gazzella's words, the sooner you get back, the better.

But when Shutark asked, no one could explain why. Rules? There weren't any. The Empire's next mission wouldn't be issued until they were in place, so they had relatively free time while on the road. Everyone just had a single, undeniable obsession—the faster the better.

Xutark himself is not the type of person who can concentrate on thinking. Since no one cares, he will not think deeply about it.

He was just told not to mention Ethan's name within the empire. After all, including Boss Levi, all the "names" used by everyone were pseudonyms.

Xiutark nodded, indicating that he understood. Keep it secret, right? Isn't that just not mentioning Ethan at all in the Empire? He understood it best.

Then, there was a lengthy immigration review. He entered the empire neither as a tourist nor as a citizen, but as a new reserve agent. The political review process was very complicated, and there were some questions about his background. However, after investigation and the confessions of Shulit and others, it was confirmed that he had no contact with Ethan, Furlin and others. In addition, after in-depth testing, it was determined that this person was not cunning. Subsequently, he successfully entered the country under the guarantee of the agent organization [Shadow Warrior].

"[Shadow Warrior], what a cool name." Shutark didn't care about anything else. Still a teenager, he just thought the name of the organization was cool. "So, from today on, I'm also a [Shadow Warrior]?"

The four of them looked at each other and smiled helplessly: "Don't be too happy too soon. The training that follows is not something that most people can endure."

The Shadow Warriors led by Levi were few in number but elite, so they were not afraid of the monster Ethan, or even Furlin.

Of course, it was the Frillian before she met Ethan. Now, having learned a lot from Ethan, Frillian is no longer someone who can be easily killed by one or two warriors at close range.

A typical magic is [Armor Protection], which is an instant magic. Once it is used, you will not die. If you fail to kill a magician of Frillian's level in one blow, the warrior will die in the next second.

Human armor cannot withstand Frillian's magic.

"Don't worry, everyone." Xiutark's expression turned serious, and he gently pounded his chest. "I have received rigorous training. No matter what I will face, I will not be afraid."

"Heh." Gazzela almost laughed out loud. After all, he was the male closest in age, and he and Shutark had the best relationship. "You'd better be."

"?" The young Shutark would soon understand how gentle his devilish master was compared to this group of imperial people.

When Shutark was taken away by the smiling Levi, the four people led by Shulit also got a long-awaited vacation.

"Okay, see you later, everyone."

"Xiulite, where are we going next?" Iris asked.

"Of course, it's a mission." Xiu Lit smiled slightly. At this moment, the expressions of the other three people also became dull for a moment, and then they nodded. "Yes, it's time to continue."

Ethan's face flashed through the four people's minds at the same time.
