The Reader and Protagonist Definitely Have to be in True Love

Chapter 18 - Protagonist: Give it back to me

The person with the purple eyes, under the Lord of Halphas City's glassy stare, smiled menacingly.

A strong sense of crisis assailed the heart of the Lord of Halphas. He knows that what he should do now is to retreat, but the magic sword in his hand won't let him. How can a magician clash swords with a warrior? The Lord of Halphas City doesn't know why, but he is reluctant to let go of the demonic sword. That moment when he didn't retreat resulted in an almost fatal scene. The Lord felt a pain on his waist. He had used stone skin magic, but there was something sharp enough to break open his stone skin, cut into his flesh and blood, and almost pull out his intestines.

His near death crisis finally led to the Lord breaking free of the Burning Desire Demonic Sword. He let go of the sword and, jerking to the side like a rolling meat ball, successfully avoided the attack. He never felt so close to death before. In order to survive, the Lord began chanting magic spells even while he was still lying down on the ground, summoning countless thorns from the ground.

This action did save the Lord's life. The attacker clicked his tongue, expressing his dissatisfaction. His flung his hand to the side and shook off the blood and flesh gouged out from the Lord's abdomen. With one hand, he held the black-haired youth who was still in a coma while his other hand picked up the demonic sword. A pair of black bat wings tore the back of his shirt and he jumped into the air. His wings fanned out, looking majestic and raising his stature in the eyes of the onlookers.

The Lord crawled up from the ground, dirty from rolling around in the dust. He saw the wound on his belly - pain... blood pumping out as he breathed... He raised his head angrily, but when he saw the figure in the air, he inevitably froze in shock. Not only him, but almost all the demons stared at the figure in disbelief. The gnome became... a demon?

The huge bat wings fanned behind his back. His black hair was swept back, exposing two curved horns, and a pair of purple eyes with vertical pupils shone brightly on his handsome face. However one looked at him, Xiu looked like a genuine member of the demon race.

The demon held onto his personal property and flicked away the blood that was on the sword. When he looked at his arm, it was no longer the thin childlike arm of a gnome. Xiu was pleased at the arm's graceful muscles and the power it contained. The abdominal injury did not hurt so much; instead, it acted like some kind of catalyst that made him feel more excited. Now he can escape from these demons, but... he doesn't want to.

Unwilling, unwilling, unwilling -

The Burning Desire Demonic Sword is trembling, an inaudible whisper seems to hang in the air.

Since you don't want to leave, then go ahead and do it.

Xiu stared at the Lord of Halphas City below him, narrowing his purple eyes.

Dan looked at the slender figure. The businessman's face is full of interest; it has been a long time since he has seen such an interesting creature.

The Lord, on the other hand, did not think it was interesting at all. That person was originally a gnome and turned into a demon, but all he wants to do is to cut him into a thousand pieces to make Xiu pay for the flesh and blood that he gouged out.

"Kill him! Kill him! Kill him!!!"

When the Lord roared out this command, the demons moved to act, but Dan floated himself up and projected his voice so that all of the demons could hear him clearly:

"Alas, don't be too ignorant of the rules, do you not see that the demon is 'challenging' the Lord?"

The demons stopped and looked at each other while the Lord turned green with anger. The demons follow the law of the jungle and respect personal strength, so in each of the 72 cities, the Lord of each city must be the region's most powerful demon. As long as you are the strongest, the region's demons will spontaneously support you.
