Chapter 78 He was as terrible as that day when he said,
"Don't, don't kill me."
If Jim still doesn't understand what is happening in front of him, then he can go home and sleep. Everything in front of him showed him the fact that the person next to him who threatened to kill him was not at all a kind-hearted church saint who was easy to bully.
To the other party, his performance that day was a complete joke. It was because some misunderstandings with Sirius were not explained clearly, so he deliberately stood on his opposite side and pretended to watch him talk endlessly.
He said so much that day but actually didn't get to the point at all.
What they want is loyalty. Even if they are traitors, they still have to show their loyalty, right? But the problem is that what he expresses in his words is that there is no difference between humans and demons, and he only joins the demons because they are strong.
"La... Lord Siris, this person has the face of a speculator from beginning to end. Although I admit that the demon clan has declined now, this is the time when talents are needed."
Mo La knew that her current actions were very dangerous. It's nonsense, but at least from the current point of view, she has not made it clear that she is on the side of humanity.
Sirius might have guessed something, but as long as her identity is still the daughter of Netrei, and she is still the high-blooded witch who is valuable to the demon clan, she has the capital to speak directly to him now.
The reason why we want to point the finger at Jim is of course because the other person is really hateful and actually made him speechless.
Whenever Mo La thinks about this, her face becomes dull and she feels that her life has been in vain for so many years.
On the other hand, it was naturally a disguised form of weakening the talents available around Sirius.
Although Jim seems to be very vulnerable in their eyes, the good thing is that the other person is a human being. Letting human beings kill each other has always been the devil's favorite trick.
"No subordinate!"
"Look, he's still quibbling!" Mo La looked sarcastically at Jim, who was frightened and kneeling on the ground begging for mercy. "If it weren't for coveting the power of the demon clan, he would How can they be on our side?
Mo La believes that now is the time for the demons to recover their strength. We would rather hide in the dark and accumulate strength than recruit such untrustworthy humans at this time!" "
... "
Jim fell silent, because he found that he really couldn't explain anything now.
His purpose of joining the Demon Clan was indeed to master more advanced magic skills, and at the same time, he also felt that Sirius, who was secretly controlling the Xilin Empire at this moment, was more worthy of surrender than any other force.
At this moment, Jim could only secretly raise his head and glance at Sirius. Then when he saw that Sirius had not looked in his direction from beginning to end, but had been staring at the pattern of the tea cup on his hand, Jim felt that he might not be evil today. There is less luck.
"Moura, please sit down first."
Sirius didn't dare to look into Moura's eyes, because he felt that if he didn't hold his nerve, the other party would probably find out.
However, the reason why he still has the courage to remain calm in such a situation that may be exposed at any time is because after counting the days, he knows that today is the time to refresh the button.
In fact, he never knew the rules of the button refresh time before, but now he seems to have gradually discovered some rules, and today he can verify whether this rule is really effective.
And this so-called rule is that unless the day is calm, the button will definitely refresh before the moment when you face a crisis.
Of course, this is just a bold speculation based on the timing of the previous button appearances, and there is no substantial basis.
At the same time, he was also wondering about another question at the moment, which was why Mo La, as a witch, didn't see that the magic power in her body was not sufficient?
But it's not surprising that Sirius didn't understand, because Mo La, who was sitting opposite, had also been wondering about such a question. Is it because the current Demon King has just been resurrected, so his power has not been fully restored?
She even had an "illusion" in her mind that if she rushed forward now, she would be able to overthrow the devil immediately.
Of course, Mora did not choose to risk this, but continued to implement her current plan. She wanted to become the person Sirius trusted most.
So after hearing Sirius asking her to sit down, she calmed down and chose to calm down her somewhat excited mood.
There was a strange silence in the room. Jim, who was kneeling on the ground, never dared to raise his head again, for fear of seeing the determination in Sirius's eyes to abandon him.
Until the end, Sirius couldn't help but sigh, and then said slowly:
"Jim, I told you, I asked you to help me take care of Moira. It seems that the relationship between you... is not good."
"I'm sorry, my subordinate did something wrong and misunderstood what you meant, Master."
Seeing that there was still room for maneuver in Sirius's tone, Jim quickly changed the original title of "Sir" to "Master".
"And you, Moura."
"My lord, I..."
"Don't you think joining with a purpose is more trustworthy than a few words of loyalty?"
Sirius took a sip of tea. He said this This is not the first time he has said it. He had adhered to this principle when making deals with Luther before.
Although I don't have the abilities and identity that Jim said now, as long as I'm not exposed, it's impossible for the other party to betray me in advance, right?
As for after being exposed?
It’s all about death anyway, does it matter how you die?
"I have seen too many humans. I know this race much better than you do. And whether they are humans or demons, they are all self-aware and will not easily become anyone's vassal.
Unless you Use the magic of mind control to completely turn the other party into a fool who only knows how to execute death orders and does not think about himself. Otherwise, no one can guarantee that a person will only devote his life without asking for anything in return." "But..." "
But what? ? Do you think Bishop Calvin is a special case?"
"Yes." Although she was a little embarrassed to have her thoughts exposed, Mo La still nodded and said, "The bishop has been dedicated throughout his life, and he has contributed to the Church of Light. He doesn't ask for anything in return."
"Haha, really? Then why do you think he wants to control Anka's rights?"
"It's just to make Anka better."
"So it's not like he's asking for something in return. Do you think this is a dedication, but in fact it is a reward for himself. He has feelings for Anka, so he hopes that he will become better.
But if you want to put the same situation in Jim, you say that he Is your contribution to us making the demons better? I don't believe it."
After saying this, Jim's body trembled, and he was very afraid that Sirius's next words would be to execute him.
"But I believe in the purpose he is telling you right now. As long as this purpose is truly attractive to him, then he will not be able to betray it.
But having said that...why do I always feel like you are on the side of humans, Moura? "
Sirius had an immature guess in his mind, that is, the witch in front of him seems to have been saying good things to Calvin and the church.
"That's not the case, it's just that this subordinate has been lurking in the church for a hundred years. For a long time, I know very well who is leading the church now and what kind of person he is. "
Moura explained while observing Sirius carefully. Now she feels more and more that her judgment is correct. Maybe the demon king in front of her is indeed weak now.
This also explains why the other party fought against her last time. She had always been just defensive, which explained why the Demon King who once looked down upon humans would now speak for such a useless magician.
In order to test what was going on with Sirius, Mora secretly gathered the power of the wind element. Then he controlled a strong wind to knock over the tea cup in front of Sirius.
The howling wind blew the yellow curtain next to the window at the same time. Everything seemed so normal, as if the weather outside had changed. , because the window that was not closed led to the scene in front of her.
The brown tea in the cup that was overturned by the wind also wet Sirius's clothes at this moment. The occurrence of this scene also raised the tension in Mo La's heart to the highest level.
For such a disrespectful behavior, if it were the terrible devil back then, she would definitely realize that she was the one casting the spell, not the wind in nature, and she would definitely punish herself for such a disrespectful behavior.
But the risk seems to be worth it, Because Mo La noticed that Sirius didn't seem to have any other reaction other than frowning and then glancing at the unclosed window to wonder if it was a gust of wind coming from outside. He
didn't even ask other servants to come over and replace his cups. , just showed a dissatisfied expression and pushed the cup aside.
"Lord Sirius, how about I close the window? "
Moura pretended to stand up and close the window, but she was actually observing Sirius's reaction.
"Yeah. "
Sirius just treated it as an accident, so he didn't realize Mo La's true intention.
And just when Mo La got up to close the window and walked behind Jim, her whole heart changed and she decided to proceed. A bolder attempt.
She wants to kill Jim directly in front of Sirius.
If she succeeds, it means that all her judgments are correct. Sirius is still in a weak stage now, and even that battle has been exhausted. With all the magic power of the other party, the current opponent is just a paper tiger.
If it fails... If you are
lucky, the other party can forget the blame and forgive yourself for your reckless behavior. If you are unlucky, you will end up like your father at worst!
I have made up my mind. Mo La quickly gathered a dark purple-black fire ball in her hand, then turned around and threw it in Jim's direction.
However, just when she saw that the flame was about to touch the opponent's body, everything suddenly seemed like They were all distorted for a moment.
Then she saw a scene that made her hair stand on end:
Jim kneeling on the ground had disappeared. At the same time, no matter how she probed for his breath, she could not find that Jim existed in the whole house. Traces.
And Sirius, who was sitting not far in front of her, was holding his chin with one hand, lowering his head and saying nothing.
Just when Mo La wanted to say something, she suddenly found that all the glass utensils in the whole room had exploded. , the window in front of her also collapsed and shattered...
Wait?
How did the window get in front of her?
Mo La's pupils widened, and then she realized that even the position she was standing in had changed, or in this room The positions of many pieces of furniture in the room have also been moved to varying degrees.
This... what kind of terrifying power is this?!
"Mo La, you have gone too far. Your behavior just now made it very difficult for me~"
