How to fight against an enemy that you are completely unable to defeat?

The answer is to introduce another equally powerful and terrifying enemy.

Since there are no allies to be found, then just find yourself an enemy, a powerful being who also covets you.

Young Lor took the initiative to expose himself to the sight of demons and cults. He knew better than anyone that the so-called contract could not protect him. In the Principality of Thorns, everyone knew that there was an unshakable and terrifying existence high in the clouds.

That is the Duke of Jizui.

That is the true superior, the ruler who decides the fate of countless lives in the principality with a single word.

Over the long years since the founding of the principality, the Grand Duke of Thorn has passed down his rule from one Duke to the next. Her rule is unbreakable and her majesty is spread throughout the territory. Even the vampires who started the Eternal Night War retreated because they were afraid of her power.

Cults such as the Cult of the Secret Abyss were repeatedly encircled and suppressed by successive Grand Dukes who sent out knights in the Principality, making them so frightened that they dared not cause any more trouble.

If we can attract the Archduke's attention, perhaps we can find a solution to the problem.

……

On the outskirts of Thorn Country,

There were two figures outside the Islan Manor. One of them was short and fat, with slightly dark cheeks and light wrinkles, and narrow eyes. His eyes, which were usually full of viciousness, were now filled with flattery and compliments.

The man walking in front was tall, wearing a white pleated shirt, a black riding suit with gold embroidery, and high-heeled hunting boots. His long hair that reached his hips was scattered freely behind him, and his every move was nonchalant and indifferent.

"Your Highness Yilandani, it seems that the remnants of the Secret Abyss Cult can no longer wait."

Lor's aunt, the current acting head of the Islamic family, bowed and spoke respectfully, not even daring to look directly at the exquisite face of the noble woman in front of her.

The tall and beautiful woman sniffed the faint rose scent in the wind, with a mysterious curve at the corner of her mouth.

"The Rose Priestess of the Goddess of Beauty," Ilandani said without turning back, her voice as cold as water.

She quietly gazed at the silent manor,

"So, the gift for mother is also included?"

"Sir, my nephew is inside," Lor's aunt leaned forward with some fear and trepidation, "I beg Your Highness and the Grand Duke to forgive me for not being able to present the gift in person."

"That's thoughtful." Yilandani said calmly, "Since it's something for my mother, I can't let any random person dirty it..."

As if the king from high above had given an order, the earth began to tremble, a huge whimper came from the ground, and then in the vibration, something broke out of the ground.

Blood-red shadows emerged from the ground and shot towards the manor. From the outside, one could see that a layer of light with rippling water waves enveloped the entire manor. At this moment, those blood-red shadows were like needles piercing into bubbles.

In the violent tremor, the layer of water-like bubbles gradually dissipated, and the silence of the manor was broken. The roars of various wild beasts and panicked cries for help began to be heard from inside.

The servants of the manor were still there, but they were just mortals. They could not understand what happened that night, let alone imagine what would happen next.

In the manor.

The beasts that lived in the shadows leaped out of the darkness and hunted the mortals in the manor at will, but soon they encountered something even more terrifying.

The bloody thorns from underground were even more cruel hunters. They covered the sky and swept through the entire manor in a short time. The beasts in the shadows were pierced by the bloody thorns and hung on them before they could even struggle.

Only then can we see the terrifying appearance of those beasts:

It was shaped like a hound with tentacles growing from its mouth, its entire body was pitch black, with a ferocious mouth under the fur on each side. Even though it was pierced by thorns, the pitch-black fur continued to wriggle, trying to break free and escape into the shadows.

But then more thorns burst out of its body and pierced it like a sea urchin, and the whole beast was torn to pieces.

"The vicious dog herded by the God of Beauty, the shadow beast."

Ilandani walked in the manor with her slender legs in long boots and a calm expression. All around her were broken limbs, which were the remains of servants in the manor who were torn to pieces by shadow beasts.

Shadow beasts will not leave corpses. After being torn into pieces by thorns, they will melt into a pool of black mud and flow into the shadows.

Lor's aunt was so frightened by the scene that her face turned pale and her legs trembled, but she still mustered up the courage to follow the Grand Duke's daughter and continue forward.

On the other side, Lor could no longer hold on.

The blood was still dripping, and as it flowed away bit by bit, Lor's mind gradually became blurred. Many chaotic thoughts and broken pictures flashed by, but he could not capture them.

The air was filled with the scent of roses, and another familiar smell, richer, sweeter... and more holy.

That was a smell I had smelled before.

It's the smell of blood.

Could blood taste so sweet? Lor could no longer think, and Anne, hanging upside down from the ceiling, exclaimed in admiration again.

"What a talent and quality this person has! The legendary Holy Grail that caused the vampires to start the Eternal Night War is probably just like this."

At the bottom of the abyss, endless black fog was surging, streams of sticky black mud were gushing out from it, and there was a creepy sound of grinding teeth coming from it.

"It's about to begin, it's finally about to begin..."

Anne was shaking with excitement. This was a rare sight. The demons in the abyss devoured the pure and innocent lamb. The lamb's soul would be torn into pieces and swallowed by the demons as food, and the lamb's body without its soul would become a breeding ground for new demons.

The black mud took shape as it churned, like dozens of snakes entangled together, gently wrapping around Lor from bottom to top, moving over his body bit by bit. Wherever it passed, the remaining clothes silently melted away, revealing the fair and flawless skin underneath.

At the same time, the body that had been taking drugs for many years began to feel the desires rising under the touch of the devil, and Lor, who was completely unconscious, let out an uncontrollable murmur.

“What a beautiful picture.”

Anne felt her whole body tremble as she looked at the scene in front of her. Her delicate legs wrapped in black stockings rubbed against the maid's long skirt, and she felt a warm current surge in her heart.

The pure lamb is about to be devoured by the devil, and the entangled black snake is just the tentacle of something that has not yet fully emerged from the abyss.

He greedily tasted every drop of blood that flowed from Lor's neck, and felt the sweet aroma of the sacrifice. In the black fog of the abyss, a huge black mouth covered with fangs opened...

It was at this moment that a bloody shadow fell from the sky and pierced straight into the huge mouth that opened in the darkness. A deafening howl, like that of an injured wild beast, erupted from the abyss, and the entire stone chamber shook violently.

The demon in the abyss seemed to be hit hard, and the black mist began to shrink. The sticky black snake entangled with Lor tied up Lor's body, trying to drag him into the abyss.

But the next second, another bloody thorn emerged from the wall and cut off the demon's tentacles. The silk that bound Lor broke into pieces, and Lor fell to the ground.

"Who?!" Annie yelled angrily. Who dared to disturb the gods' meal? But before she could get angry, a thorn came out from the ceiling and pierced her back, piercing her in the air.

The entire stone chamber rippled like a punctured bubble, then completely shattered and turned back into a wine cellar under the manor.

The dark passage also turned into an ordinary stone ground. The demon disappeared without a trace. Only the tentacles cut off by thorns remained on the ground. They melted into a pool of black mud bit by bit, slowly wriggling and flowing into Lor's shadow.

The demon's territory retreated.

There were stone stairs on the ground leading to the wine cellar. The elegant and clean Ilandani walked down slowly. Her clothes were neat and new, as if she was on a spring outing. Her long boots made a clicking sound as she stepped on the stone stairs.

She didn't look at Anne who was pierced by thorns and hanging in the air, but walked straight to Lor. At this time, Lor was naked and had completely lost his mind. The desire of his body made him tremble constantly and he let out seductive moans.

Feeling that something seemed to be approaching, Lor took the initiative to hug it, hugged Ilandani's beautiful legs in long boots, and wanted to pull it into his arms and rub it continuously.

Ilandani looked down at Lor's white body and his delicate face, squinting her eyes slightly. She let Lor hug her long legs, leaned down, pinched Lor's chin with her right hand, forcing him to raise his head, and looked at his face carefully.

“It’s so uncomfortable…”

Lor opened his eyes, but they were still blurry. He struggled to lean towards Ilandani, subconsciously grabbing her arms with both hands and gently rubbing his young face against her hands.

"That's really mean."

There was a godly indifference on Ilandani's exquisite face, as if the person in front of her was not a stunningly beautiful woman. But her eyes were fixed on Lor's slightly open mouth and delicate lips, as if there was a hidden flame burning inside.

"Is this the gift you want to give to your mother?" Ilandani said coldly. Lor's aunt lowered her head behind her, staring at the tip of her shoes, not daring to look up.

"Yes, yes, Your Highness." Fearing that her words might offend the Grand Duke's daughter, Lor's aunt carefully organized her words, "I wonder if the Grand Duke is satisfied with this gift?"

"Hehe, she will like it." Yilandani narrowed her eyes, as if she thought of something, and suddenly chuckled.

"Since it's a gift from my mother, as her daughter, I should take it back for inspection."

After saying that, he picked up the naked Lor from the ground. Lor felt the embrace and began to rub his hot body against Ilandani.

Yilandani remained calm on the surface, but the fire in her eyes seemed to grow hotter.

"Ah, well, Your Highness, please say a few good words for me in front of the Grand Duke." Lor's aunt seemed to want to say something, but in the end she could only bow and watched Ilandani holding Lor out of the wine cellar.

"You will be rewarded."

In a place where no one was paying attention, something seemed to move in the shadow under Lor, and then became quiet again.
