Chapter 38
Anna waited for a while, but she didn't see the demon rushing out. She was a little disappointed. It seems that this kind of stimulation is not enough?
She seemed to have been comforted by Balan, broke free from his arms, shyly stepped aside, and whispered, "I'm sorry, I'm so gagged."
Anna knew that the demon must be able to tell that she was acting now, but he had to see it.
So in his opinion, what is she for pretending to be Xiaoniaoyiren? Of course it was for Balan's pity, which is enough to show that she was moved by Balan.
And she only told the demon yesterday that she didn't like the four-star mage saint child and others.
She didn't like the four-star mage and saint child possessed by the devil, but she liked Balan. Isn't the devil angry? The prey he chose is about to be taken away by other demons, he still comes out to stop it?
Although she didn't notice any movement, Anna didn't just give up. Quantitative changes resulted in qualitative changes. If it didn't work, she tried a few more times and tried too many times. The devil's anger always reached the threshold.
At that time, she just had to hide next to her and shout "Don't beat you, don't beat you. You can't kill people like this."
Balan used to read countless women, but how could he not see that Anna was pretending just now? But of course he won't expose her, he likes women playing such cute tricks with him.
"It's okay. It's normal for a delicate girl to be scared by such terrible bugs." Balan smiled, and when she turned to Anna, her smile suddenly became strange, "But I'm very curious. A demon like me, Anna, aren't you afraid? ?"
The alarm bell in Anna's heart, she felt that Balan's words were full of temptation.
Indeed, because she was used to seeing demons all the time, although she was surprised when Balan appeared, she lacked the fear and vigilance that humans had when they encountered an alien.
"Because you saved me." As if not hearing Balan's temptation, Anna lowered her head and said shyly, "I just thought I was going to die, but you appeared. I know that demons are evil creatures in the legend. , But the legend is a legend after all. Shouldn’t seeing it be the truth? The fact is that you saved me. If you are malicious to me, the worst is just the way you did when you didn’t save me. I didn’t suffer."
In the first half, Balan thought that Anna fell in love with the person who rescued her when she was rescued, but only in the second half did she realize that she was actually a rational person.
A rational person, deliberately pretending to be weak and wanting to get close to him, is obviously an attempt to him, no matter what her real purpose is, he welcomes it.
"Anna, you said so well." Balan smiled, and then stumbled upon his friend. "However, not every demon is as kind as I am. You will see other demon in the future, Remember how far and how far you ran."
Rothgar stared coldly at Balaam deliberately causing him trouble, but he didn't care.
Of course he still possessed someone else and approached Anna today. How could Anna discover that he was a demon?
"Really?" Anna heard Balan mentioning other demons, and asked quickly, pretending to be curious. You too?"
"What's the same? Is it the same handsome?" Balan smiled happily. "Don't worry, there are only two demons in the human world. As far as I know, there are only two demons. The other's appearance is a little worse than mine, just a temper. Very bad. If you see him, don't talk to him, or you will be pissed off by him. He doesn't have any pity for women."
...This is the demon who has been staring at her!
That demon has a bad temper, and his mouth is sometimes very poisonous... But sometimes, he will also say some nice words. She now suspects that those nice words are probably from the memory of the person possessed by him. He pretended to be Di yesterday. Bian is quite similar.
When Baran talked about the demon's tone, Anna felt that the two of them were not like enemies, but like friends. This tone was quite intimate.
Then she wanted the demon to rush out to fight Balan, I was afraid that she would have a miscarriage. The two obviously have a good relationship. The demon has been staring at her again, and Balan suddenly came up with a hero to save the United States and deliberately approached her... Could it be that the demon felt unsure about her after the events of last night, so he asked his friend to come. help?
It's literally, he has to ask his friends for help even in reaping the soul, so he has no confidence in himself? No confidence to say, she gave it to him!
After figuring out that it was not two demons competing for a soul, but two demons cooperating to harvest souls, Anna really panicked.
She was already struggling to fight a demon with wits and courage, but now she has a clearly higher rank. How can she be able to endure it?
Anna took a deep breath and calmed down.
What about friends, can't friends provoke?
Knowing that the demon was listening, she smiled and nodded and said, "Okay, I remember. Thank you for reminding me. I thought every demon was like you... But I listened to your tone. Are you friends with that demon? Wouldn't it be bad if you talked ill of him behind his back?"
Balan thought, if it hadn't been for Anna to know that Rothgar was eavesdropping in the dark, he thought she had deliberately said these things to provoke his relationship with Rothgar.
"Don't worry, he has never cared about this." Balan said indifferently, and blinked, "Besides, isn't he here?"
Anna was smiling, but her heart was dripping blood.
These two demons seem to have a really good relationship, and they can't be easily provoked! Also, that demon can find Balan to help him harvest his soul, and it really makes a lot of sense.
Seeing that she couldn't provoke the relationship between the two, Anna had to give up the plan and continued to chat with Balan while walking.
"Balan, what are you going to do in Black Cloud City?" Anna changed the subject and continued to inquire from another angle.
Balan smiled: "Look at a friend's family."
"You have a lot of friends, but is it okay for you to go in like this?" Anna said. Balan’s answer contains a lot of information. The “friend’s family” in Black Cloud City is of course only human. In other words, he has a human friend, and, strangely, he is visiting the friend’s family. , Instead of looking at friends and family, what about his friends?
In addition, can demons and humans become friends? She thought that demons would only treat humans as prey. So why can't another demon make friends with her? She thinks that her soul is more beautiful in this body.
"It's fine to go in at night." Balan smiled, "Although there is no one in Black Cloud City who can hurt me, it is too troublesome to make a big noise."
Anna smiled: "That's right."
First, there is no one in Black Cloud City who can hurt the devil, what about other cities? There is hope for her plan to become a five-star mage to defeat the devil. Second, the devil's horns cannot be closed. Otherwise, if the horns can be closed like wings, he can swagger into the city, so what if his eyes are a little red? Haven't you seen anyone with pink eye?
Anna and Balan are walking in the gaps in the forest. There is no road formed by humans walking for a long time. It is a bit hard to walk, but Anna has walked through various terrains in the past 20 days, and she still followed. superior.
She thought that it was clear that Balan could take her to Black Cloud City directly, but did not do that. Obviously, it was to "cultivate" feelings with her on the way to Black Cloud City, so as to help her friends in this very short time. busy.
Since Baran couldn't instigate the friendship between Balan and another demon's friend, she didn't need to do anything more than just talk.
Anyway, as long as she gritted her teeth, she wouldn't let her go, and he couldn't do anything to her. He would kill her if he had the ability. She would rather die than surrender anyway!
"Let's take a rest here," Balan suddenly suggested.
Anna responded and found a place to sit down where Balan stopped.
Balan smiled and said, "I will go and look around. If there is any danger, I will solve them before you see them."
"Then I will trouble you." Anna smiled gratefully.
Balan's back figure quickly disappeared into the dense forest. Anna leaned on the tree trunk and closed her eyes to rest.
Did he go to find that demon? Could it be that they want to share the skills of harvesting her soul?
"Isn't Anna very easy to understand?"
Balan was giving his testimony, and standing in front of him was Rothgar who had followed them all the way.
Rothgar snorted, didn't want to talk, followed all the way, watched all the way, Anna's performance made him very upset.
"But she is indeed more complicated than an average girl." Balan analyzed his chin and said, "I saved her, but she didn't have much affection between men and women for me. Although she seems to be attached to me, I know, She was actually very wary of me."
Balan has seen thousands of women in this life. Does a woman love him? How can he not tell? Anna seems to be the same when facing him, but in fact it is because she knows that she is weak and has to act as if she is dependent on him, right?
"But while being wary of me, she also wants to get something from me." Balan continued, "Money, power, and strength, all she wants is this, but she is really an ambitious woman. It’s really rare to ignore my beauty."
He licked his lips, his red eyes were filled with excitement: "I really want to see such an ambitious woman fall for me, blushing and eagerly begging me to satisfy her..."
Rothgar frowned irritably when he heard Balan's words, and he mocked: "Didn't you have your love?"
Balan glanced at Rotgar and shrugged: "I'm just talking about it, since I have Catherine, I will be loyal to her."
Rothgar and Balan have been friends for thousands of years. It is ironic to say the word "loyalty" from Balan. If he hadn't been to Balan almost every time before, there were always things with dirty eyes in his castle, how could he not bother to set foot in Balan's castle later?
He didn't even bother to listen to Balan's words.
"But, knowing what she wants, isn't it easy to get her to answer?" Balan said, "She will be very happy to ask her to marry me. I am the Great Duke of Abyss. What she wants, just marry me. I can get it all. By the way, I have to mention my position in the demon world to her later."
Rothgar saw that Balan was full of confidence and didn't regard Anna as a big difficulty, so he couldn't help but sneer.
He hadn't been able to figure out Anna in nearly two months. If she was taken by Balan in one day, she should be prepared to face his anger.
After Anna was resting for a while, she heard the movement. She opened her eyes, and Balan walked slowly not far away. She should have made the movement deliberately so as not to scare her by approaching.
She thought, compared to that demon, Balan was indeed a lot more considerate. How many innocent girls should this deceive?
"There is no danger around, you can rest for a while." Balan was sitting on the ground two steps away from Anna, smiling, "Do you know that there are five Great Lords of the Abyss in the Demon Realm?"
"Ah? I don't know, I only learned for the first time today that the devil is real." Anna sat up straight, obviously interested in this topic.
Balan said casually, "Coincidentally, I am one of the five Great Duke of the Abyss."
Anna's face changed slightly, and Balan noticed, knowing that his bargaining chips had increased again.
"Why is it called Grand Duke Abyss?" Anna asked.
"Because our five demons all crawled out of the abyss of the demon world. The abyss gave us gifts and curses." Balan said indifferently about things that almost no one knows in the human world. See Anna With a curious expression on his face, he smiled and asked, "Want to know what the gifts and curses of the abyss are?"
Anna nodded expectantly.
Balan smiled and said: "This can't be said. This is our secret, and even I don't know the secrets of other Great Duke of the Abyss very accurately."
Anna has some regrets, "gift and curse", this sounds like a weakness of the devil, but this weakness is that she will not be able to talk about it no matter how much she wants to come to Balan. .
Thinking of the demon who had been staring at her, Anna couldn't help but ask: "The Great Duke of Abyss...isn't it all idle?"
Balan was taken aback and laughed: "It's really idle. We don't manage the land and population like the nobles in the human world. You don't know how idle we are."
Anna thought to herself, why didn't she know how idle they were? Balan is the Great Duke of the Abyss, and another demon must be too. A powerful and powerful Great Duke of the Abyss can't live with her weak humans every day, I am afraid it is because of Xian's problems!
"Although I don't like to manage others, in my castle, servants and treasures are all available." Balan continued to throw bait. "Whether it is a wise or ignorant monster, it will kneel and tremble in front of me."
He has money, power, and power. Isn't she still tempted?
Anna felt that it would be very impolite to not show a certain amount of envy and yearning when others are showing off. Especially when the other person is a devil, it is not only impolite, it is simply fatal.
As a result, she looked at Balan's gaze, and there was a little more admiration: "It's amazing."
Balan hooked his lips. He felt that Rothgar was too stubborn. Is it necessary that the person who loves him will agree to his marriage proposal? You can achieve your goals if you love his appearance and position of power. You must know how to adapt.
After all, just like Rothgard, which woman can't help but want to love him? If he wants his targets to love him, it will be as it is now, without any success.
Balan ridiculed Rotgar unceremoniously in his heart, and confiscated him as soon as he was good enough to play up his status in the devil world.
Anna said that she had rested well, and the two continued on the road.
After walking for a while, Anna found that there was a sense of familiarity around her, as if it was the place where the monster caught her, so she knew how to go on the next road.
It's a pity that Balan can't be thrown away yet.
As a human being, Anna gets tired easily and needs a lot of rest time. After walking for less than two hours, Balan realized that she was tired and proposed to rest again.
This time Balan didn't leave, so Anna simply meditated in front of him. Meditation helps to restore energy. Although Balan is an unreliable demon, it is easy for him to kill her anyway. She doesn't have to wait for her to meditate and kill her, and she will have nothing to worry about.
When Anna finished her meditation, she opened her eyes but saw a roast chicken in front of her.
……dream?
Before she had time to pinch herself, Balan laughed and said, "It's very lucky. I just went out and wandered around and found this roast chicken. Anna, are you hungry."
Anna watched the roasted golden brown and sprinkled all kinds of spices, but the roast chicken was somewhat cold, and she couldn't help falling into silence.
Where can I pick up this stuff? I'm afraid it was not "picked up" in someone else's caravan!
Anna had even eaten the meat of Warcraft, and of course the grilled chicken was cold.
But she didn't want to eat what Balan gave her. What if there was a kind of "obedient medicine" that didn't exist in her past world but existed in this supernatural world?
When passing through cities and villages before, Anna certainly bought dry food, and now she still carries two dry cakes with her, enough for her to walk to Black Cloud City.
"I don't like chicken, you can eat it." Anna said as she took out her dry bread, "I can just eat this."
Balan smiled: "The devil doesn't need to eat. It's a waste to give me food."
Anna thought, it's normal for the devil not to eat ordinary food, after all, there are delicious souls to eat. Who can eat durian, who wants to eat rotten apples!
"That's really a waste." Anna said wastefully, but she didn't mean to eat roast chicken.
Balan looked at Anna's mouthful of dry cakes, and only thought that her careful thoughts were so cute.
Because she didn't want him to see her indecent appearance of eating roast chicken, she deliberately said that she didn't want to eat chicken. It's a pity that he already has Catherine, otherwise he would really want to challenge her.
Anna could have rushed to Black Cloud City before dark, but she was captured by the three-headed monster and walked a wrong way when she came back, so when it was dark, she still couldn't see the shadow of Black Cloud City. Can only sleep in the street.
Because she had been in the wild for several days, Anna felt that she was covered with dirt and wanted to take a bath, so she admired that Balan didn't seem to dislike her at all when she faced her.
Balan found the branch, watched Anna set the lights with interest, and sat by the fire alone with her.
Looking at the girl on the opposite side quietly in the firelight, he found that the small face looked a little gray during the day, and it was a bit beautiful at this moment. Those sky-blue eyes reminded him of the blue sky that humans only like, pure. But it was profound, which made him want to find out.
Of course, he immediately thought of his Catherine, and threw this undesirable idea into his mind.
Conscious that he has gained enough favorability all day, Balan smiled and opened his mouth: "Anna, after I went to see a friend's family, do you want to go back to the Demon Realm with me?"
Anna was taken aback and asked: "I am a human, can I also go to the Demon Realm?"
Balan thought, look, isn't it easy?
She didn't ask him why he asked, but instead asked her the feasibility of going to the Demon Realm. Isn't it because she really wanted to follow him?
"Of course it can. Although it is a little troublesome, there is a way." Balan laughed, "If it's for Anna you, that little trouble is nothing at all."
Rotgar, standing under the tree not far away, was hiding in the shadows, watching this scene with biting eyes. He felt that he was humiliated when he heard that Anna did not immediately reject Baran's proposal.
Every time he proposed before, she refused very quickly and simply, right? Although the reasons are different, her refusal has never changed.
When it was Balan's turn, she hesitated.
All kinds of terrifying thoughts intertwined in his mind, Rotgar stared at Anna by the fire, waiting to see what destiny she had chosen for herself.
