Chapter 69: Chapter 69: Confrontation, Unexpected Situation, Tastes Good?
“Human, you still dare to enter the Abyss!”
“Die!” Demon Duke Ethan’s voice was extremely loud, filled with anger.
But he was too far away. Even though the red ball he launched was extremely fast, faster than any demon warrior could fly, it couldn’t hit Aiden right away.
Before disappearing, Aiden quickly raised his right hand and made a thumbs-down gesture toward the distant Demon Duke Ethan.
The attack from The Flame Demon Oslu, and the invasion of The White City’s Abyss, were all because of this guy.
Once Aiden was strong enough, he would definitely find a way to kill him!
Watching the figures of Aiden and the two Miko disappear, Ethan’s six huge demon wings behind him began to vibrate wildly.
He had been mocked by a weak human?
He, the Demon Duke who ruled countless demons, had been humiliated like this!
“I remember you, human! The one who killed Oslu and ruined my plan! I will kill you for sure!” Ethan shouted into the empty land, full of useless rage.
He tried to control his anger and gave the two demon warriors beside him a cold look.
“Idiots!”
“Contact the Evil Demons Guild. Tell them no matter what, they must catch that human!”
“Anyone who dares to disrespect me will regret it!”
…
In the Abyss, the territory of the Miko clan.
The space slowly shook and ripples appeared. A white Hexagram magic array quietly appeared.
Aiden, along with the Miko Rainn and Cheryl, suddenly appeared.
Without hesitation, Aiden immediately used the Epic skill Shadow Stealth again.
His figure disappeared again. Rainn, who had just used the long-range teleportation, looked pale, her legs weak, and she collapsed to the ground.
Cheryl, on the other hand, was a little shocked at first, then quickly stepped in front of her sister, guarding her and watching the surroundings carefully.
Rainn’s eyes flickered. There was no surprise in her eyes—she seemed to have expected this.
She slowly said.”Don’t worry, we won’t attack you. After all, without you, both me and my sister would have died there.”
She struggled to throw the last Epic Demon’s Heart she had left onto the ground and continued.
“Of course, without my skill, you would have been killed by Ethan.”
“This is the remaining Demon’s Heart. I’m giving it back to you. We’re even now, okay?”
Unlike the calm Rainn, Cheryl looked at the Epic Demon’s Heart on the ground, her eyes showing a little sadness and pain.
This was an Epic Demon’s Heart!
The area around them was completely quiet, as if there was nothing else alive except the two of them.
Aiden, hidden in the shadows, used his detection skill.
Only now did he have a chance to look at the two Miko carefully.
First, he looked at the tall, gentle-looking Miko with long legs and a smart look.
[Miko Rainn of the Abyss
Tier: Epic
Level: 69
HP: 10 million]
Then he turned his eyes to the other Miko, who was on high alert.
She was a little shorter than Rainn, maybe around 1.7 meters tall, but had a full figure. Her loose black robe couldn’t hide her shape.
[Miko Cheryl of the Abyss
Tier: Epic
Level: 65
HP: 8 million]
Sure enough, both of the Miko had high levels, but their current condition wasn’t great. If a fight broke out later, Aiden still had a chance to try.
He looked at the Demon’s Heart on the ground with no reaction, because the Miko named Rainn was very smart.
Aiden couldn’t be sure if she really didn’t want to kill him, or if she was just choosing a temporary truce because of her bad condition.
He stepped back a bit, making sure he had enough time to react if the two Miko attacked. Then he slowly stepped out of the shadows.
“You’re smart. The smarter someone is, the more dangerous they can be.”
Aiden said to Rainn in a calm way. He really wanted that Pure-blood Dragon Egg, but in this situation, he wasn’t sure if he could get it.
Rainn nodded and said.”Thank you for the compliment. But the same goes for you. If Ethan hadn’t shown up, the real winner would probably have been you, the one hiding in the shadows all along.”
“I’ve never seen a human like you before. You killed that Earth Demon so easily. You must be some kind of genius in the human race.”
Genius in the human race?
Aiden smiled a little. He was just a Magic Apprentice after all.
She probably couldn’t find out his basic information, so she was just testing him.
The Epic Black Tortoise Shielding Technique really worked.
Between two smart people, there’s always a natural gap.
Aiden knew clearly that he and these two Miko were stuck in a chain of suspicion. Both sides thought the other was up to something tricky.
In this silence and standoff, Aiden’s figure disappeared into the shadows again.
He felt the warning compass shaking!
Aiden used a little magic power and 10 Spirit points. He saw a red dot appear behind the two Miko sisters.
Aiden’s eyes darkened. This wasn’t good news at all.
That red dot probably wasn’t a strong demon. Their speed wouldn’t be that fast.
Plus, this was the Miko’s territory. So Aiden guessed it was probably a new Miko appearing.
If he stayed here and kept facing Cheryl and Rainn, he might be in danger.
Aiden took a deep breath and kept his calm expression. He reappeared in front of Cheryl and Rainn.
“I want that Pure-blood Dragon Egg. Let’s talk about a price.” he said.
Rainn shook her head. “Sorry, but this item is really important to me.”
Aiden sighed. He had expected that. If he had something so valuable, he wouldn’t want to sell it either.
Too bad!
Behind Aiden, the Abyss the Flame Demon cloak slowly opened. He floated into the air and looked toward the back of the Miko sisters.
An Onyx dot appeared at the edge of his vision.
He couldn’t stay here any longer.
Aiden turned and flew off in another direction.
Cheryl didn’t hesitate at all. She quickly picked up the Epic Demon’s Heart from the ground, her face full of joy.
“Sister, he didn’t even want this precious thing!”
“Since he doesn’t want it, then it’s ours now!”
After she said that, she didn’t hear her sister’s answer. She turned around quickly and saw blood slowly coming out of Rainn’s mouth.
“Run! I was holding on just now. If that human comes back, we’re done.” Rainn said, her face pale. She was clearly hurt badly.
Normally, her long-range teleportation skill needed some time to prepare. Using it forcefully would cause side effects.
Cheryl quickly helped her sister up and said.”I actually think that guy isn’t bad. If it wasn’t for him, we would have died back there.”
Rainn looked a little in pain and replied.”The temptation of a Pure-blood Dragon Egg is huge. We don’t want to hurt others, but we have to be ready to protect ourselves.”
“Come on, let’s go. If he comes back and thinks he has a chance to kill us and take the Pure-blood Dragon Egg, what are you going to do?”
Cheryl nodded. She wasn’t in top condition, and using a forbidden spell would probably kill her.
Miko forbidden spells come at a great cost — they use life energy, and their power is terrifying.
Just as she was helping her sister Rainn up, and preparing to leave as fast as she could, a figure suddenly appeared in the sky not far away.
A tall old woman in a red robe, wearing a blood-red pointed hat, with a hooked nose, a bump on her chin, wrinkled skin, and a cruel look in her eyes. She licked her dry lips and said:
“Tsk tsk, today’s luck is really good. I found two prey coming straight to me. Hahaha!”
“I was wondering why there was a strange space disturbance around here. It turns out it’s a surprise!”
Rainn’s already pale face turned even whiter, like a piece of white paper.
The Killing Miko!
A special type of Miko from the Abyss. She gave up her normal Miko identity and chose to kill and drink blood. She gets stronger by eating other ordinary Miko and keeping her beautiful look.
They had accidentally entered the territory of a Killing Miko!
“Get out of here!” Cheryl shouted, pushing her sister behind her and staring hard at the ugly Killing Miko.
The Killing Miko looked at Rainn and Cheryl with a resentful and jealous expression, and said in a cold voice:
“I will peel your faces off and put them on the floor.”
“Especially you — your chest is so big and high, really… it makes me drool.”
The Killing Miko stretched out her thin, dry fingers, and a ball of black light began to form at the tip of her finger.
Swish!
The black ball of light moved very fast and shot straight at Rainn.
Cheryl reacted quickly. She pulled out a huge staff that was two meters long and started swinging it.
She hit the black light perfectly, making it change direction.
Boom!
The black light hit the rocks around them with a loud noise. A lot of stone pieces flew everywhere, and dust filled the air.
But Cheryl’s breathing became heavy. She gritted her teeth, looked at her sister behind her, and without hesitation, tried to use a forbidden spell.
Rainn’s eyes were full of pain. She couldn’t fight anymore and could only watch her sister about to give up her life.
“Human! Are you still here? I can give you what you want!”
Rainn shouted loudly.
But there was no reply. Only the sound of rocks falling to the ground.
The Slaughter Witch watched the surroundings carefully and said.
“Human? Even if a human appears, he will still become food!”
At that moment, a soft voice appeared.
“Delicious?”
