Hyperdimensional Warlock

Chapter 358 Seeing the Shadow for the First Time
When Barr was in his dream, he could still see the people he had tortured and killed.

They had pale faces with bloodstains on their faces, and some even lacked arms and feet. Even if there was only a human pillar left, they kept chasing him, shouting "pay for life"... Finally, Barr was forced to the ground. dead end.

"Ahhh——" Just as a pair of bloody hands pinched Baal's neck tightly, he finally yelled out and passed out in a dream.

At the same time, in reality, Barr sat up from the bed, panting heavily, with cold sweat all over his back.

After a while, Barr came back to his senses.Whispering in a low voice: "This, is this a dream?" Why is it so real?
"You are haunted by old nightmares even in your dreams, Barr, it seems that you have done a lot of bad things." A clear male voice came into Barr's ears.

Who dares to say that to me? !Baal raised his head angrily, and saw a figure leaning against the door frame.

When he saw the man's face clearly, Barr rolled down from the bed in fright, then knelt down in front of the man, and said courteously, "My lord, why are you here?"

"I should ask this question." Angel turned around, nodded slightly to Du Shan who was looking around curiously in the living room, then walked into the room and closed the door.

"Why did you come to see me?" Angel sat on the sofa and asked leisurely.

Barr was at a loss for a moment, he hadn't realized what happened.How did he wake up from the bed?When he saw a hint of impatience on Angor's face, Barr suddenly recalled what happened in the early morning——

Barr originally came here in high spirits today, because Leon Rik, who was once aloof, actually sent his cronies to beg him to come here. You must know that he almost kidnapped Leon Rik's daughter a few days ago.But in just ten days or so, Leon Rick didn't care about Magda anymore, and even sent him a big gift to beg him.Just for him to send a message to the wizard.

Barr was a little puzzled, why Leon Rik didn't come over in person, but asked his former enemy to interrogate him.But he didn't think too much about it. If he could get benefits and gold coins, so what if he made such a trip.

Then, he came here by boat, and before he entered his old house, he...saw a ghost?Then passed out? !Barr glanced at Angor secretly, and thought to himself, maybe Leonric didn't trick him into summoning him because he knew the weirdness here?Damn, how dare this old man cheat me!
"I... I just came here to give Leon Rick a message..." Barr hesitated for a moment, but still said what he wanted.

"Leon Rik?" Angel raised his eyebrows, "Does he have any message for you to pass?"

"I don't know either. I just said some inexplicable things and tricked me into coming here... Well, it's not a trap, it's not a trap!" Barr slapped himself on the mouth: "Look at me, I mean, He asked me to send a message to the lord, but the message was very strange, I guess he was teasing the lord!"

Angel: "Say it straight, what message did he bring to me?"

"He just said some strange things, saying that he found an urban legend, there is a race in the legend, what is called Kukabala? Or Kukabala's..." Barr had a strange expression on his face: "I also forgot Well, anyway, it’s just some unknown words.”

"Kubakala? Kubakara..." Angel frowned, muttering softly, "Could it be Kura Kuka?"

Barr's eyes lit up: "That's right! It's Kura Kuka!"

Angel grabbed Barr's collar suddenly: "Is it really Kura Kuka?"

Barr was lifted into the air out of thin air, and he nodded in fright: "That's right, it's Kura Kuka! I remembered, that's the name he said!"

Angor threw Barr on the bed, and whispered, "If Kura Kuka is a little black shadow, then that person yesterday must be..."

When Angel said this, he turned and left.

Barr stared blankly at Angel leaving the villa, and he wanted to cry without tears: "Your Excellency, you are gone... What should I do now?"

……

Under the deep waterway, in the basement of a building.

The magician was originally researching the "Water Sending Technique". His model was basically constructed almost the same, but the model always collapsed at the last step. He wondered if he should ask the mask.

However, at this moment, the copper door was suddenly pushed open.

Angel, who was wearing a black and white striped windbreaker, appeared in front of the magician.

"A mask?" The magician looked suspicious and defensive... How could someone break into his residence?Why didn't the people outside call the police? !

"What are you doing here?" The magician said with vigilance.

Angel didn't mean any greetings, he just waved his hand, and the magic power surged out of his body.The magician backed away in fright, and began to quickly build a model of his best tricks in the thinking space.

But before his model was completed, Angel asked in a deep voice.

"Is this person a shadow?"

The magician raised his head suspiciously. He saw that the magic power released by Angel before had turned into a kind of stable nodes. These nodes depended on each other, and then constructed a real illusion.

If the magician hadn't known that this was his room, there would be absolutely no way for "Snow and Streetlight" to appear, and he would think it was actually real!
What a brilliant illusion!The magician praised secretly, with envy in his eyes... It would be great if he could do this too.

With the current situation, it seems that Mask is not here to find fault and start a war?The magician relaxed a little, but he didn't cancel the model in the thinking space, but continued to maintain it with magic power, and he could release it immediately if he got sick.

"Let me ask you, is this person a shadow?" Angel saw that the magician had been silent and his eyes were wandering, so he suppressed his impatience and asked again.

The magician was pulled back to reality by Angel's words, and looked at the vivid illusion.

If you change places, this illusion will be greatly appreciated by the magician, because the illusion is full of loneliness and loneliness, and the composition is very in line with the aesthetics of cold school.

——Alternating black and white background, falling snowflakes, a lonely and shimmering street lamp, and a man with a cigarette dangling from the corner of his mouth.

The man couldn't see his face clearly, but the iconic leather boots, leather jacket with rivets, and wide-brimmed hat made the magician recognize him immediately.

"That's right, he is the shadow!" the magician said firmly.

"you sure?"

"I'm sure! This guy is usually indifferent and doesn't talk much. But his dress is different from his personality, and he is extremely flamboyant, especially this rivet leather jacket. He has worn it several times. When he went back to Charming Tavern, he He was wearing this leather jacket with rivets, and it even scratched a dancer." After the magician finished speaking, he asked curiously, "Did you see the shadow last night?"

Only last night it snowed, and the time of the snowy night in this illusion is obvious.

"That's right." Angel was expressionless, "This guy is not as indifferent as you said. It's just... his behavior is a bit weird."

The magician nodded: "It's really weird. I still haven't figured out why he joined our extraordinary party. He is so powerful that he couldn't get anything from our party. Instead, he told us A lot of useful knowledge, I can't believe he is so kind!"

Even if he gets benefits, for a magician who doesn't trust anyone and only has a long-term interest relationship, he is actually more vigilant about the shadow than Angel.

"I see, thank you for letting me know." Angel said, turned and left.

"Wait!" The magician stopped Angel, and in the puzzled eyes of the other party, the magician smiled and said: "I have studied the water delivery technique for a day, and I have a little doubt here, I need to ask you."

……

After leaving the magician, Angel went directly to the suburb of Waterglass.

Leon Rick brought Magda back home from the Golden Cross Medical School. He already knew that his daughter was not suffering from a disease, so he couldn't let her stay in the hospital, where a group of quack doctors watched and studied.

He hired several careful nurses to take care of Magda. Just in case, he also wanted to invite two Chinese doctors, Tyrell and Caroline, to live at home and take care of her nearby.However, because Tyrell was punished by the wizard, he saw the horrible ghost for three days, and his energy and spirit were greatly reduced. He is still in a state of nerves, so he can only stay at home to recuperate his body.

So, in the end, only Caroline accepted his invitation and lived in the Earl's Manor.

At this moment, he was discussing with Caroline how to improve Magda's mental state.

——Although he knew that Magda was not sick, since Magda woke up, she knew that she had lost her shadow, as if struck by lightning.So he locked himself in a dark secret room, and did not come out and see no one.This already belongs to the category of mental illness, so he has to pay attention to it.

Caroline talked about a long section of measures to improve her mental condition, sunshine and rain, the world is beautiful... But at the end, she couldn't help but sigh: "Obviously living in the sun, but found that I was about to fall into the abyss, Such a strong contrast is hard for anyone to accept. For the current plan, if she can't find the shadow, she can only let her figure it out in despair. However, this kind of "figuring it out" is probably the most painful thing in the world. .”

Caroline's emotion made Cyndia couldn't help it, and the tears in her eyes burst again.

Leon Rick hugged Cyndia, and comforted in a low voice: "There is hope, isn't there a masked adult?"

Cindia shook her head while crying: "Tyrell offended Mr. Mask that day, will he still help us?"

When it came to Tyrell, Caroline was also a little embarrassed, especially thinking that when she went to apologize to Mr. Mask yesterday, she bumped her nose, and she felt full of embarrassment.

"I don't know either..." Leon Rick said nah.Although he passed on the matter of 'Kura Kuka', but thinking of that urban legend, he didn't think that Kura Kuka was related to the little black shadow.

But Leon Rik still held onto a glimmer of hope and passed the news on.But because of the uncertainty of this matter, he didn't even dare to go there in person, for fear of ruining the relationship, and finally he found Barr...

At this moment, a knight in silver armor walked in: "Report, Mr. Mask is here!"

Leon Rik stood up, and Cyndia stopped crying in shock.

"I'll go to meet you now!" Leon Rik held back his surprise.

"No need." At this moment, Angel's figure came in from the door: "I'm already here."
