Shadow of the Beautiful World

boom

An hourglass with a slightly different style from the hourglasses of other hell lords was thrown on the table by Merlin.

Looking at the maharajas with different colors in front of him, he shrugged and said with a light smile:

Mephisto's accusation against me is only due to the bad character of the old devil himself, but believe me, everyone... the fact that the power of fear was stolen really has nothing to do with me.

I mean...

Lord Raven increased his voice, he looked around, and said:

Everyone, while you are busy besieging me, there are new visitors in the lively venue of the King of Hell Contest.

You always think I'm out of group, but they, they are the ones who really don't intend to follow the rules and want to turn the table.

And, Mephistopheles, I warn you, we're getting on very well.

On the tower at dusk, the raven's eyes searched for the lords of hell, and finally fell on the silent old devil.

He pointed at Mephistopheles maliciously, and said:

But if you continue to slander me like this next time, I will definitely come to you in person for a 'chat'. I think you haven't forgotten what I said when we met last time...

Merlin sneered a few times, and in front of the other maharajas, he stretched out his finger and scratched his neck.

The meaning of this threat is simply off the charts.

But under the curious, amazed, or lively gazes of the other hell lords, the old devil Mephisto, who has always been good at talking, unexpectedly ignored the raven's provocation.

It's like being scared stupid.

Seeing that Mephisto didn't respond, Merlin didn't say anything more.

He looked at the other hell lords, and leaning on his cold cane, he said loudly:

Seniors, I am not familiar with you either.

I originally planned to say some hypocritical things to let everyone relax their vigilance against me, but considering your identities, I will not play tricks. After all, I am just a junior in the business of playing tricks.

Merlin smiled, he didn't talk nonsense, pointed to the hourglass he threw on the table, and said:

Since I came here today, I left this thing here to show my attitude to the seniors. I abide by the rules in hell, even though there are no rules in this ghost place...

If you want to continue to surround me and monitor me, you can do whatever you want, and I don't intend to explain anything.

The cane in Lord Raven's hand touched the ground. Amid the sound of the collision, the gate to the wasteland opened behind him. He said to the Lords of Hell who were looking at him:

I'm here just to remind you.

Everyone's 'insiders' are noisy, and noisy is noisy, but if outsiders take advantage of the chaos and let outsiders sit on the throne of Satan majestically, then we hell lords will be ashamed sent.

Merlin stretched out his hand to straighten the scarf around his neck, he said:

Okay, that's all for now.

I still have something to do at home, so I'll leave first, don't bother seniors chatting here, it's a waste of time.

After finishing speaking, Merlin turned around quickly and walked into the light gate.

The other children of hell also threw the hourglass representing their identities, and also left the Tower of Twilight without saying a word.

This scene made the other hell lords a little silent.

They tried their best to surround Merlin Riley, not because they were idle or bored, nor because they were insane and provoked by Mephisto. They did so for a reason.

Just look at Merlin and his friends.

This group of young people occupied three hells in just ten years.

There is also Limbo, which is so important to all hells, and what's worse, unlike the situation where the old Yinbis are intriguing with each other, Merlin's side is very united.

Yes, solidarity.

This word that shouldn't appear in hell at all has been fulfilled in the children of hell.

What those young people lack is power on paper. Once they are given enough time to develop, the children of hell united around Merlin will definitely overthrow all the guys who stand in the way one by one.

The unlucky Marduk, who died without a place to die, has already proved this prophecy.

But now, as Merlin said, while they were busy besieging the ravens, some unknown guys joined the battlefield of the King of Hell. What's worse, those guys had the ability to cheat.

Maharajas, you look at me and I look at you, waiting for the first person to speak.

Tsk tsk, who said ravens are brutal?

Maharaja Baal, who has always been outspoken, threw out several thunderbolts and hit Merlin's hourglass, but was blocked by the orange light.

I think, isn't this young man quite polite? Look at his manner, he is no different from a real creature from hell.

Well, indeed.

Lucifer, who pays the most attention to demeanor, also nodded and said:

The temperament is outstanding, and the appearance is barely handsome, and he didn't embarrass the group of Hell Majesty. He also used soft and hard words, but he was a little blunt. It seems that he also has resentment in his heart.

Tch, don't be fooled by him.

Without saying a word just now, the old devil Mephisto, who pretended to be a coward, sneered.

It grabbed its Lothahu, turned its red eyes, and said:

He's trying to turn our attention elsewhere, inside and out, and it's clear he's plotting something...

But he's right!

The Great Demon Lord Belial, who had been silent all this time, knocked on the table and interrupted Mephisto, who said to the other Great Monarchs:

Compared to ravens and children of hell, the new entrants are more threatening. If they can really manipulate fear, then we have already lost this game!

Whoever stirs up fear in the world will make wedding dresses for those guys in vain. The harder we work, the closer we are to failure.

The gloomy, shadow-like demon king squinted his eyes, and said in an obscure tone:

Either, change the rules now; or, everyone has to come up with a solution.

Change the rules?

Mephisto screamed exaggeratedly as if his tail was being stepped on:

Do you think this is a child's play? Change it if you say so? The rules of every battle for the king of hell are to swear to the throne of Satan, unless we are willing to wait a few thousand years...

The old devil snorted and said:

Everyone is waiting, and everyone knows it well, even Abaddon and Samael, who never come to a meeting, are clear about it. Isn't it just the intersection of the celestial spheres? The moment when the boundaries of the dimensions of the worlds disappear completely is enough to make hell Armies can enter any world without hindrance.

I've always hated Mephisto's shameful face, but I also have to admit that it's right this time.

Barr slapped the table and said:

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The last time Marduk relied on... Hey, it's meaningless to say this now. In short, if you miss this time, just wait another 5,000 years!

I also don't agree with changing the rules.

When Lucifer finally spoke, the King of Fallen Angels said worriedly:

It's not too cumbersome. For us, 5,000 years is nothing more than a matter of sleeping. It's just that I have a strong hunch.

The battle of eternity is very likely to enter a new stage. If we can't take this opportunity to decide on the king of hell...I'm afraid we are very likely to encounter the eternity of shame in the battle with heaven. It's the real big deal.

Having said that, Lucifer raised his head, looked at the burning sky of hell, and said:

You may not know that a few days ago, another archangel reappeared in heaven, Haiwen...that is my sister who was dear to me. Her return may herald some changes.

Then since everyone does not agree to change the rules.

The Great Demon King Belial shrugged, looked at the hourglass that was stagnant in front of him, and said:

Then tell me, how to deal with those intruders?

I don't want to be used as a gun.

The old devil was the first to speak:

Especially being used as a gun by Merlin... I'll go find out first, I always feel that this matter has something to do with Merlin. Hell, look at me with that look! This is not a personal grudge...

Seeing the weird gazes cast on it by the other maharajas, the old devil grinned, shrugged, and sprayed a few strands of flame from his nostrils. He admitted shamelessly:

Well, this is a personal grievance, and I have never concealed it.

I hate that Raven guy!

—————————————

Lord Raven's first appearance in the Twilight Council was not long.

He also has no intention of talking more with the other hell lords.

Merlin is very clear about the current situation, even if the Lords of Hell know that there are people in this world who can bypass them and collect the fear of the world directly, this explosive news is unlikely to make the old Yinbis relax their surveillance of the wasteland.

But Lord Raven is not in a hurry.

The other hell lords don't care because they still don't know much about the abilities of big snakes and nightmares in the field of fear.

As long as those two friends show some threats, these realistic and selfish hell lords will definitely shift the target of siege from Merlin to Orochi and Nightmare.

If they continue to focus all their attention on Merlin, and let those two guys continue to ingest the fear of reality so rampantly, then the lords of hell will not have to fight for the throne of Satan.

According to the development of the current situation, the final candidate for the King of Hell must be contested between Orochi and Nightmare.

In the business of playing fear, no one can play better than those two guys.

So the meaning of Merlin's appearance in the Twilight Council this time is actually very simple.

Either everyone sits and watches outsiders ascend the throne, and applauds, cheers and curses for the birth of the new king of hell.

Or, let's put aside the monopoly on Merlin for the time being, and get together to find a way to drive the cheating Orochi and Nightmare out of this competition first.

I hate that old devil.

After returning to the wasteland, Merlin said to the glasses girl waiting for her:

Mephisto, that guy is staring at me, and he even feels a little crazy.

Then just fight a hell war.

Icarus was holding a stack of documents, just like Merlin's little secretary, she shook her long blue hair, waved her fists, and said to Lord Raven:

Let's fight Mephisto Hell first. If we use up all our strength, we can destroy it without any problem.

What about after it's knocked out?

Merlin stretched out his hand and flicked Icarus' nose, and he said:

Don't make up your mind. Before the siege net of the hell lords is revoked, any movement on our side will attract a siege. It's not that we are afraid of them, it's just that there is no need to go to war.

Just wait, the opportunity will appear soon. By the way, Elsa said that she will invite her family to have dinner at the manor in Marseille tonight.

Merlin suddenly remembered something, and he said to the glasses girl following behind him:

You can go there tonight too, and call Zatanna by the way. What is she up to now? I haven't seen her for a long time.

Hide from the nightmare.

The glasses girl who was in a happy mood after receiving the invitation pushed the round glasses on her face, and she said to Merlin:

Since returning to Earth, Nightmare has been looking for Zatanna, trying to invade her and your dream world. Recently, due to the increase in power, Nightmare's pursuit has become more frequent.

Zatana should be in her ancestral house now, it is said that that place can prevent the infiltration of nightmare power.

Speaking of this, the glasses girl glanced at Merlin, and she said:

I don't understand, why do you want to avoid it? If you fight with the Supreme Mage, it is not difficult to defeat the nightmare, right?

I was still counting on the nightmare to muddy the water in the Hell King's Battle. I'll clean it up now. Orochi alone may not be able to support this drama.

Raven explained:

And the big snake should have its own plans. Except for Aum, there is no sign of the other six Skyhammer Venerables. The big snake is very cunning. Before the situation is clear, it probably doesn't want to participate in this muddy water.

At least not now.

Merlin shook his head and said:

But there are some things that he can't do if he doesn't want to do them. It's already in the game, and it's too late to withdraw now.

While talking with the glasses girl, Merlin put the winter scepter in his hand on the table.

He was going to take a rest and prepare for the family gathering at night, but just when Icarus took off his glasses, took off his coat, and secretly prepared to make out with Merlin, a blinding white light curtain suddenly lit up in the throne room rise.

Ciriya jumped out of the light curtain wearing riding boots and a white hunting suit with a sword on her back.

Her long silver hair fluttered, and her steps were brisk. Looking at Merlin and the dissatisfied Icarus beside him, she said hurriedly:

Come with me! Something big is going on.

What's wrong?

Lord Raven stood up subconsciously, he thought that Xilia had encountered some crisis.

Xi Liya is now shouldering several important projects. If there is no accident, it will definitely be a headache.

But fortunately, this time it is not troublesome to come to the door.

is a good thing.

Cilia stepped forward and grabbed Raven's wrist, she said:

The infinite formula you want has been made!
