Time passed in Anna's anxious waiting, she seemed to hear a voice coming from outside in a daze, and quickly got up and walked outside the church.

Watching her move, Father Louis recovered from the reverie that she could not speak to outsiders, and hurriedly got up and followed.

As soon as Anna walked to the door of the church, she saw Evan, Guy, Jem, Adele, and Little Evan, who hadn't seen her in more than half a year, hurriedly approaching.

As soon as he saw her, Guy strode over, hugged Anna tightly, and choked up: "Goddess! My Anna!"

Anna hugged Guy back, her eye circles were a little red, and she hadn't seen her for half a year. She was in that situation when she left. She was worried that Evan and Guy would not forgive her.

She took a deep breath. At this moment is not the time to reminisce about the old days. She quickly said: "Mom and Dad, you can go with me. For the specific situation, I will tell you on the road, the time is urgent!"

Anna thought it would take some words to convince Evan and Guy, but Guy said quickly, "Okay, Anna!"

During the days when Anna was away, Guy and Evan would remember from time to time what happened before Anna left, and regretted that they didn't go with her at the time. Now that more than half a year has passed, Anna, whom they have been worried about, has returned. Seeing her safe and sound, they almost cried with joy.

Gay had imagined countless times that if the goddess had mercy and turned back time, Anna asked them to go with her again, she would agree without hesitation. She didn't expect such an opportunity to come so quickly, so she didn't want to ask Anna why this time.

As long as the family can be together.

Anna didn't expect Guy to promise so quickly, and then looking at Evan, she also nodded at her.

She didn't ask any more, turning around and said to Father Louis: "If the devil chases after him, I'll say that I have gone to Black Cloud City."

"Black Cloud City?" Father Louis asked questioningly.

After all, it was a city in another country, and Father Louis, a small local priest who didn't care much about cities in other countries, hadn't heard much of it.

"Black Cloud City is in the Principality of France. He will know where you are talking." Anna looked out. The carriage was ready, it was a very ordinary carriage, and she said to the priest, "Thank you Father Louis , We are leaving now, and will not cause you trouble."

Father Louis regretfully watched Anna get into the carriage and leave with her family, thinking that he still had so many doubts that had not been answered.

Anna wanted to drive the carriage by herself, but Evan didn't let it go, and the group went out of the city gate and walked in the direction of Black Cloud City.

Guy kept looking at Anna, as if trying to make up for the missing half of a year.

Seeing that Guy didn't ask aloud, Anna didn't explain it for the time being. She just looked nervously to the sky outside, for fear that Rothgar would catch up at this time. At the same time, she was also using detection techniques to prevent Father Louis from sending people to chase her, and to use wind gathering techniques to remove the traces left by the carriage.

Anna knows very well that if she finds a place to hide alone, Rothgar will find it difficult to find her, but she is also very worried that if he can't find her, he will vent his anger with her family and friends. Therefore, even at the risk, she had to take family and friends out of Rotgar's sight.

After walking out of the city for a while, Anna yelled to Evan, who was leading the car, "Dad, stop!"

Here is just a fork road, one can lead to Black Cloud City, and the other seems to be in the direction of Green Pine City.

"Go this way!" Anna pointed in the direction of Green Pine City.

Evan didn't ask much, and drove in that direction.

The fork in the road recovered calm after the carriage moved away. After a while, a figure flew out of the woods and hurriedly flew towards Blue Rock City. It was Rothgar who was chasing after him.

He was completely wounded, and the corners of his mouth were a little torn and flushed, without covering his figure, he quickly flew close to Blue Rock City.

It is very difficult to find a person in a small city with a population of tens of thousands. Rothgar did not intend to conceal any more, and flew directly to the city lord's mansion and went straight to the lord's residence. He once possessed Parrish and knew exactly where the lord lived.

But when he arrived at the lord's residence, he didn't see the lord. He recalled that he hadn't met anyone on the way.

Such an anomaly caused Rotgar to frown, and he flew into the air and headed to the church.

Because his path was not covered, people in the city had already discovered him, and there were shouts of exclamation everywhere. He didn't care, but when he arrived at the church, he saw the Father Louis he had seen standing at the door of the church, and he did not avoid him.

Rothgar knew that Anna must have been here, and Father Louis had long known that he would come.

"Where's Anna?" Rothgar asked without talking nonsense.

"She went to Black Cloud City," Father Louis said peacefully.

"Is this what she wants you to say?" Rothgar asked.

Father Louis did not hide: "Yes."

"She took away her family?"

"really."

Rothgar frowned. There are only two places that Anna will worry about, one Blue Stone City and the other Black Cloud City. After she took away the family from Blue Stone City, the only concern left was Black Cloud City... Natalie.

She deliberately told him where she was going through Father Louis, and her words were not credible. However, this may also be her intentional, making him believe that she did not go to Black Cloud City, but actually went to Black Cloud City quietly.

Rothgar will not underestimate Anna's cunning level. She can discover another way to activate the teleportation array without his attention, and use Balan to create an opportunity to escape the devil, setting a small point in this matter. The trap is too normal.

Even, she may still be in this city, deliberately saying that to trick him to leave.

Rothgar couldn't guess which way Anna chose, but he knew where her end was.

"Tell Anna that I'm waiting for her in Black Cloud City. If she doesn't come, she won't stay alive in the city." Rotgar said coldly to Father Louis, and then flew into the air.

The face of Father Louis changed drastically, and he hurriedly said: "Anna has left, I can't talk to her!"

But Rothgar didn't listen to Father Louis's words, and quickly went away.

If Anna is still in the city, after knowing what he said, she will definitely rush to Black Cloud City. If Anna is not in the city, he believes that she will also go to Black Cloud City sooner or later. Therefore, he only needs to go to Black Cloud City and wait for her.

Rothgar just flew out of the city gate when he saw Balan approaching him.

He frowned coldly, only thinking that Balan was as annoying as the flies in the human world. He also didn't talk nonsense from Balan, and punched him head-on.

The two demons immediately fought each other.

On the other side, Anna still bothered to remove the traces of the carriage. After a long time, she saw the green pine city in front of her.

Green Pine City is much larger than Blue Stone City, but Anna did not let Evan stop, instead turning to the west.

She really read a lot of books when she was still in Black Cloud City, and she knew that there was a city to the west of Green Pine City called Hongxia City, which belonged to the Duchy of France.

At this moment, it was getting late, Anna thought for a while, and thought that since Rotgar hadn’t chased him now, she’d been led away by her or stopped by Balan, so Evan was asked to stop and the group of people got off. Carriage, walk around and stretch your muscles and bones.

Father Louis was quite considerate, and there was some dry food in the carriage, enough for emergency.

Anna was still worried that Rothgar would come after, so she didn't start a fire.

And in the wild, because she has spells, she is not worried about danger.

Just now, Anna had been busy removing the traces and didn't talk to Guy and the others much. At this moment, a few people were sitting and resting under the trees on the roadside, and she knew she should make things clear.

At this moment, Anna is sitting on one side, her family is sitting on the other side, Guy and Evan are sitting side by side, Adele is holding little Evan and leaning in Guy's arms, because Anna smashed when they separated half a year ago Guy's head, Adele is still a little wary looking at Anna, and the young Evan is a lot stranger to Anna. Jim remained silent, sitting aside, lowering his head and not looking at anyone.

"Mom and Dad, I'm sorry to suddenly break your peaceful life." Anna looked at her family in this world and apologized, "But because I provoke the devil, I am worried that he will hurt you, so I have to do it. Really. I'm very sorry."

Guy also had a foreboding of Anna's words. She heard what Father Louis and Anna had said before departing from Blue Rock City, but it was not convenient to ask at the time.

"Yes, is that the demon?" Guy's voice was a little hesitant and panic.

The devil in the legend can stop children from crying at night. Ordinary people are afraid of demons, but they don't really believe in the existence of demons, so after hearing Anna's words, Guy still can't believe it.

"Yes, with long horns on her head, blood red eyes, and a demon from the devil." Anna said, raising her fingertips and lighting a small flame. "Moreover, during the time I was away, I had become a demon. A mage."

Nobles and mages are all high-ranking "adults" to commoners. When they suddenly saw that Anna had become a noble mage, Guy and Evan couldn't believe it. Even Jem, who kept his head down, looked up. There was a little flame in his pupils.

Seeing her family were stunned, Anna retracted the flames and continued: "During this time, I became a mage in another place and made some friends, but I didn’t expect the demon to chase me there... and Now he is chasing me here again."

Anna didn't elaborate on the situation, they didn't know some things, and it was useless to know more.

"So... what should I do? Should I go to Father Louis to destroy the demon... No, that's not right..." Guy suddenly realized as he said that, I was afraid that Father Louis could not destroy the demon, otherwise how could he send the family away? Woolen cloth?

She didn't know that Father Louis had sent them away under the threat of Anna. She thought that Father Louis was compassionate and helped them instead of the goddess.

Anna shook her head: "The devil is very powerful, and the most powerful wizard can't beat him... The only thing I can do at the moment is to hide from him."

Evan, who had been listening, suddenly asked, "Anna, if the devil finds you...what will happen?"

What happens if Rothgar finds her?

This question struck Anna for a moment, and she smiled bitterly: "I don't know. Anyway, if you can't be caught, you won't be caught."

Guy wiped his tears and hugged Anna, and choked up: "My poor Anna, how could such a terrible thing happen to you? Goddess, why can't you protect your devout believers?"

Anna thought to herself, even if there was a goddess, she would definitely not be able to protect her, she was a pagan who didn't believe in the goddess.

She hugged Guy. This strong and powerful hug made her feel at ease, but it was a pity that she couldn't indulge in such a hug.

Anna gently pushed Guy away and whispered: "Mom, after arriving in Hongxia City tomorrow, I will help you settle down first, and then...I will go to Black Cloud City again."

Guy suddenly grabbed Anna's hand: "Anna, do you want to leave?"

"Black Cloud City still has my friends, I'm afraid the devil can't find me and I will hurt them." Anna said, she won the time in Blue Rock City, I don't know if she can also rush to Black Cloud City in front of Rotgar ?

She can only hope that Balan can work harder and buy her more time.

"But that's the devil, Anna! Are you not afraid of him hurting you?" Guy held Anna's hand tightly and refused to let go, his tone hurried, "You stay with us, we will live a good life in Hongxia City. The devil will not find you!"

"I know, Mom." Anna put her hand on the back of Guy's hand and smiled helplessly. "But I provoke the trouble of the devil, and I can't involve my friend."

Anna had been clear before that escaping from the Demon Realm was only the first step, and the next thing was the real trouble, but she couldn't stay in the Demon Realm and wait for death.

When Rothgar realized that he liked her, he would just pursue it if he liked her like an ordinary man, but if he felt that it hurts his self-esteem, he planned to kill her as a client and wipe out the evidence?

After all, demons and humans are different races. In the kind of situation where she is completely weak, she would not pin her hopes of life on the other's charity and kindness.

So, even if the risk is great, she must try to escape. Since Blue Rock City arrived first, she took her family away and hid them as quickly as possible. And next, she must go to Black Cloud City to deal with the aftermath, this is her bottom line of life, even if she pays a huge price for it, she can't help it.

Anna saw Guy wiping tears because of her words, and she felt uncomfortable, but she had no choice, so she didn’t say anything, just hugging Guy and comforting her softly: "I’m a mage now, neither There is no chance of defeating that demon at all."

Moreover, Black Cloud City is more prosperous than Blue Stone City. Before Black Cloud City had a major event such as summoning demons, the power in the city may be even stronger at this moment. Maybe there is a strong warrior who can beat Rotgar?

Both Leon and Natalie have family burdens and are unlikely to leave with her, but if there is a strong teacher or something that can resist the devil, then she can happily go back and live in seclusion with her family after warning. .

At night the family huddled up in the carriage and fell asleep. Adele no longer warned Anna as before, but lay next to Anna and called Anna softly before going to sleep.

Anna gently stroked Adele's hair, because she couldn't sleep, she just sat meditating.

Early the next morning, the carriage continued on the road. About noon, Evan suddenly stopped the carriage and said nervously, "There is a road ahead!"

Seeing the panic on Guy's face, Anna smiled and said, "Mom, don't be afraid, I am a mage now!"

Anna asked Guy to stay in the carriage with three small ones, jumped out of the carriage by herself, and saw five brawny men lined up ten meters away. They were holding horse-stripping ropes in their hands and they didn’t look very good. Sharp swords, looking at them grinningly.

"Leave everything, and we won't kill you!" The leader shouted, and then he saw Anna getting off the carriage. He immediately looked straight and pointed at Anna and said, "But you have to stay and wait until we are cool. Let's go after that!"

Anna showed a sneer: "How do you think we, old and young, dare to walk in this wilderness?"

The leader was taken aback, and just about to say how I knew, I saw Anna slightly raised her hands, and lightning flashed in her palms.

Yes, it's a mage!

This thought flashed through the minds of these tribulations, and the light of thunder and lightning engulfed them all, and after an uncontrollable tremor, they all threw to the ground.

Anna didn't go to see if these people were still alive. If they were dead, they deserved it. If they were still alive... if they were electrocuted like this, I'm afraid it won't be better for the rest of her life.

Before she got into the carriage, she waved her head back, gathering the wind to wind up the three "steep corpses" in the middle of the road, and threw them to the sides of the road, and then said to Evan: "Dad, let's go!"

Evan was stunned by the scene just now, and he hurried back to drive after hearing Anna's words.

He didn't feel much about the little flames of yesterday. Today, seeing Anna easily knocked down these roadblocks, he finally realized how powerful his daughter is now!

Anna, who bullied ordinary people with the strength of a three-star mage, didn't feel ashamed. On the contrary, she felt very happy.

She also felt very good when she pretended to be forceful in front of Father Louis and Parish.

After being oppressed by Rotgar for so long, she, the three-star mage, was not as good as ordinary people when facing him, and after leaving the devil world and returning to the human world, the strength of her three-star mage became stronger.

It's so cool to have the strength to crush others.

Seeing Guy's complex expression, Anna smiled and said, "Mom, you see, I am no longer the weak and helpless person I used to be. I have the strength to protect myself, so please don't worry about me."

Guy took Anna's hand and nodded slightly. She knew that she couldn't change Anna's thoughts. Now Anna is no longer the little pitiful who can only be bullied.

The carriage drove all the way, and in the afternoon, it finally came to Hongxia City.

Hongxia City is slightly larger than Blue Stone City, but not as good as Black Cloud City. After entering the city, Anna and his team first found a local slum, and then inquired about people who had available houses nearby, and finally found one that was willing to rent it out on the spot. Down.

When there was only her own family, Anna gave almost all the gold coins she grabbed from Rotgar's treasure chest to Guy and Evan, as well as two gems mixed in it. The money will be enough for them to live for a long time.

These gold coins are not the gold coins generally used in this city, but the value of gold coins lies in themselves. As long as it is gold, it has the ability to exchange and pay. Anna herself only took two gold coins on the road just in case, and didn't stay much for one night, so she left Hongxia City with the carriage when she came.

Anna changed into Evan's men's clothing, put on a headscarf, and wiped her face dirty. She looked like a boy. She hurried to leave before the gate of Hongxia City was closed, and ran all the way to the west.

At the beginning, she and Dibian were walking to the Black Cloud City. It took half a day to rest and half a day to walk. It took half a month, and the carriage speed was three or four times faster than walking, but the horse could not hold on for long, if she wanted to To get to Black Cloud City as quickly as possible, it would be better to rely on your own wind gathering technique to assist you.

Anna rode in the carriage for most of the night, but the horse finally couldn't run. She got out of the carriage and untied the horse's reins, let the horse go free, took the last bit of dry food and water, and used the wind gathering technique to hold her forward quickly.

By the time it was bright, her mental energy had consumed half of her energy, so she stopped meditating and rested, taking food by the way to replenish energy.

Just walking around like this, it took Anna almost three days to finally reach Black Cloud City.

At this moment, she suddenly noticed the sound of fighting coming from not far away. She paused and listened carefully, but because she was too far apart, she couldn't hear more useful.

Now she didn't have the curiosity to see who was fighting, so after a little detour, she hurried to Black Cloud City.

Anna didn't enter the city directly. Looking at the huge city from a distance, she couldn't see anything abnormal, but she also couldn't know whether it was safe.

It was a lively morning at the moment, and the entrance and exit of Black Cloud City was quite lively. Anna quickly got into the crowd, arching her back slightly like an ordinary boy, walking slowly at a speed similar to those around her. City gate.

Just as Anna walked to the gate of the city, she heard the gate guard exclaiming: "Oh my God, what is that? Is it a bird-shaped monster!"

Anna looked back abruptly, and they were fighting in mid-air not far away. Who were they not Rotgar and Balan?

She suffocated her breath and trot across the city gate quickly. Her reaction was not outstanding. After all, the ordinary people who saw the suspected warcraft fighting in the distance all ran into the city in panic.

The guards were also shouting: "Hurry up and notify the Mage Association!"

Anna ran forward for a while and stopped. There was an intersection in front of her, one leading to Natalie's house and the other to Lyon's house. She just thought about it, turned her feet, and ran to Natalie's house.

Natalie is more important to her, and she believes Rothgar will think so too. So she must go and tell Natalie to find a place to hide before he breaks into the city.

It has been a month or two since the summoning incident. Maybe the city has the power to resist the devil. Natalie must know better than her. As long as she finds Natalie, the follow-up will be simpler.

Anna arrived at Baron Wright's mansion soon, because she was in a hurry, she didn't enter through the front door, but went straight over the wall.

She knew where Natalie lived, avoided the servants, and soon reached the small building where Natalie lived. Now she only hoped that Natalie would not be in the Mage Association, then she would have gone for nothing.

She hasn't seen Natalie for a long time, and she must have worried about her before coming to Natalie. don't know how cute Natalie will react when she sees her...

Anna sneaked into Natalie's place and came outside her bedroom door.

The door was open, and there was a woman inside, but it was not Natalie.

Hearing the movement at the door, the gorgeously-dressed woman turned around and saw Anna dressed as a dirty boy, exclaiming: "Oh my God, who are you!"

Anna quickly said: "I'm here to find Natalie, I'm her friend!"

The woman stepped back and looked at Anna's eyes becoming more alert: "What are you kidding? Natalie is dead, are you looking for her ghost?"

The expression on Anna's face froze.

"What are you talking about? Natalie... she's dead?"
