Chapter 1240: Chapter 526: Slaying the Glutton Demon!
——The jewelry that fell on “Aiwass” was essentially a kind of “spice”.
Sared on juicy roast at, making it a seasoning that spreads temptation to the fullest extent.
These Glutton Demon servants, whose pupils had turned into gold coins, would spontaneously attack anyone daring to snatch their “treasure”. They might even attack each other, engaging in mutual slaughter.
However, the actions of that giant Glutton Demon seed to impose a focus on them, converging everyone’s “greed” into a single point.
Just like concentrated light can ignite a fla, the place where these greedy gazes gathered also burst into a golden fire——
“——Ugh!”
“Aiwass” let out a muffled groan, emitting a cry of endurance.
Golden flas ignited on his body, flas with a golden liquid luster. They were as dazzling as the gold rolling in the lting furnaces of a tallurgical factory, and his flesh split, vaporized in the blazing fire, his entire skeleton transforming into gold——
However, the clothes on “Aiwass” did not burn as a result, undoubtedly a kind of illusion technique. Just like the illusion technique that the Glutton Demon used to manipulate others!
And at that mont, the pupils of “Aiwass” transford into dragon-like vertical pupils.
She shouted out with extre anger:
[——Enough! Wake up!]
That was not Aiwass’s voice, but a tender and clear one, like that of a child.
As her words fell, silvery-white brilliance blood.
Those who looked at her with eyes of greed suddenly had their gazes turned to terror. People’s bodies swayed, and more than a third of them awoke, the pupils imprinted with gold coins returning to their original color.
With the falling of wooden red masks, crashing to the ground and cracking, “Aiwass’s” body transford into the petite Ligeia amidst the violent trembling of the blazing flas.
Relying on her own resistance to illusion, Ligeia saw through this illusory fire directly. And the mont she realized it was rely a false fire, the golden flas vanished into thin air.
[I command——those bewitched, wake up imdiately!]
Ligeia shouted out once again.
Her voice, with unparalleled authority, was like a dragon’s roar, exploding like thunder. The imnse sound spread several miles, causing the earth to hum with violent tremors.
In an instant, the controlled Great Guardian, Amber Master, and two Cardinals from the Holy Nation awoke suddenly!
“I actually…would also…?”
Cardinal Siegfried murmured in disbelief.
He evidently believed his pure soul could disregard external temptations. Yet, he surprisingly fell into it instantly and wasn’t even awakened at first.
“…Tsk.”
Next to him, Cardinal Galatea also showed a sullen expression, her brows tightly furrowed.
She indeed knew what it was she greedily desired.
The essence of greed is dissatisfaction—it’s the discontentnt with what one already possesses, the longing for things not rightfully theirs. And she had long fallen too deeply in this regard.
The Great Guardian, however, was already used to it. After all, it wasn’t the first ti he’d been controlled.
Being on the Path of Authority, the willpower of a “Sky Cavalry” in this advanced profession is relatively the weakest. Whether a Legal Mage or an Arbitrator, their ntal resistance far exceeded his.
But being controlled frequently also had its benefits; at least his recovery ti after breaking free from control was shorter.
As soone who had been manipulated, he clearly realized that strength was by no ans limited to the Fifth Power Level—because just less than half a year ago, he had been controlled by a Fifth Power Level Succubus. Now, the Glutton Demon’s control over him was evidently much stronger!
“——It’s indeed the Sixth Power Level!”
The Great Guardian imdiately shared intel: “This is not right!”
According to the information Aiwass previously provided, within the “Demon Country” ruled by the Fallen Celestial Marshal, the Sixth Power Level was no longer suppressed by the Force of Equilibrium of the Hourglass. It’s just that they initially thought there was only one person at the Sixth Power Level, the Fallen Celestial Marshal, but now there were suddenly two more…
Yes, two.
Although the Mage Tower had no way to deal with the Fly Demon that could absorb mana, they still managed to deliver the intelligence promptly and kept a close watch on the movents of the fly swarm. Once they regained consciousness, they imdiately discovered that these two demons acted simultaneously.
And that wasn’t all the Mage Tower achieved!
During the Fly Demon’s flight, they even found an opportunity to glimpse the lower half of the Fly Demon’s body, noticing the face connected to that “Cicada Slough”!
These mages were all from the Narcissus Duchy, which had belonged to the Star Antimony not long ago. Therefore, although most mages were rather reclusive, there were so mages with strong control over information. They imdiately recognized who that “Cicada Slough” was.
It was one of the few artistic masters of the Star Antimony, a composer nad Adrian Leveque!
This composer beca famous at a young age, once renowned as a prodigy. Even the master’s from the Iris Flower’s Academy of Arts had co to invite him to study, but he proudly declined. On one hand, he didn’t want to leave his hotown; on the other hand, the young man at the ti had quite an arrogant notion—he wanted to surpass the Iris Flower renowned for art!
But he couldn’t go to the Iris Flower for further studies because doing so would lead people to attribute his success to the “outstanding educational level of the Iris Flower”. If he planned to establish an arts academy in the Star Antimony, people would consider it the “Iris Flower’s artistic style”; even if he cut ties proactively, people would still deem it ungrateful.
