death bird

"est (primordial spirit out of body)."

Accompanied by this incantation, Ivan felt dizzy for a while, and after staying dizzy for a while, Ivan found that the world in front of him was different, it had become only black and white.He got out of bed and saw that his body was actually lying on the bed, falling into a deep sleep.

"It really is a dark world."

For some unknown reason, a small kerosene lamp appeared in front of Ivan. He picked up the lamp and started to walk in this dark world.

Thick fog gradually appeared around, and after walking a few steps, Ivan found that he no longer knew where he had gone, and it was all in darkness, only the kerosene lamp in front of him was shining brightly.

On the way Ivan was walking, he met a lot of people. Most of them lowered their heads, closed their eyes, pale and expressionless, with their long hair hanging down.Maybe it's a ghost.

Other children may feel scared when they see this scene before them, but Ivan has no reaction, and he is surprised to find that his strength has not been weakened here, because just now, he walked in front of a female ghost At that time, he clearly heard the female ghost crying in his heart: "Let me go, let me go."

Ivan continued to walk until a huge castle-like house appeared in front of him - an extremely familiar house - the place where Ivan used to grow - Bramble Cliff.

However, this cliff of thorns looks very different from the cliff of thorns in the world. If the original cliff of thorns is scary enough, then this one in front of you is still lifeless, with no sound, no crows, no sickness. There was no sound of fighting, not to mention the cheerful singing of the gramophone in the lounge.

A cloud of mist poured out from under the gate of Thorn Cliff, and Ivan opened the door in the air, and walked in holding a kerosene lamp.

It was dilapidated and dead silent, but it was terribly clean. There was not a trace of dust on the windows, and there was not even a speck of dust on the floor, just like a sterile ward.

In the hall of Thorn Cliff, Ivan saw the only color that came to this world. The statue of the Virgin Mary in the hall seemed to have been painted with two crosses with the brightest lipstick, and the part on the chest was also painted. It looks like a hickey.It looked extremely depraved.

Ivan continued to move forward, walked up the building, and subconsciously pushed open the door of a ward. There were at least three or four people standing in the ward, all of them grinning silently and horribly.Seeing that someone seemed to be coming, the ghosts suddenly raised their heads, which startled Ivan.

"heisthere. (he is there)"

They said a word in unison, then raised their left fingers at the same time and pointed in one direction.

Ivan looked in the direction of their fingers, only to see a small red door at the end of the corridor, where the fog was thickest.There is also an oil lamp hanging by the door.

Ivan pushed the door open, and in an instant, the whole world seemed to be colored, from black and white to colorful, and what he saw became magnificent, it didn't seem like he was on the cliff of thorns.

Ivan walked in this room, no, or in the more appropriate corridor of the main hall, and heard cheerful but incomprehensible songs coming from the room from a long distance.

Following the singing, Ivan came to the center of the hall, and was a little shocked by the luxurious palace.Gothic pillars inlaid with gold, crystal lamps shining with seven colors above the head, white marble carvings everywhere, and velvet knitted cloth, everything looks as luxurious as a palace.

This hall has two floors. Ivan raised his head and saw a little boy with ram horns, black feathers on his back, and a long scorpion tail on the second floor. He was humming and grinding with an iron wheel at the same time. My own sharp nails rubbed against each other, making crackling noises and sparks.

Ivan looked at the man in front of him, he was really an old acquaintance of his.

"Bafo is gone."

Hearing Ivan's voice, Bafomi turned his slender eyes and saw Ivan's figure. He was also startled, let go of the iron roller, and jumped directly from the second floor.

"Ivan?"

Bafomi didn't seem to expect that Ivan would come here, walked around Ivan several times, and sniffed Ivan again and again with his mouth shut.

"I really didn't expect that we would meet so soon."

Buffalo seemed very happy to see Ivan. His long scorpion tail kept slapping the ground. He grabbed Ivan's hand, dragged Ivan to his second-floor attic, and took a huge plush cushion, motioning Ivan to sit down.

Ivan looked at Buffalo in front of him, he still looked like a demon, but for some reason, he changed from an adult to a child.If he was holding a small triangular fork in his hand at this time, he would really be a typical image of a little devil.

"Why do you look so small?"

"I failed the bet with you. Those who bet that I won the big devil lost a lot of things. They could only vent on me, carve up some of my strength, and then throw me here. Satan punished me for guarding the undead on the first floor of hell." .”

While talking, Buffalo took out a flaming cake and stuffed it into his mouth, and started to enjoy it, as if he didn't care at all about his assignment.

"You look quite relaxed and enjoying yourself."

Ivan looked at Buffalo's appearance, as if he didn't feel the pain of being sent out at all, but seemed extremely happy to stay here.

"Of course, you have to know that the first floor of hell is the place where all human souls stay. Without Satan's approval, no demons or fallen angels are allowed to come here. Because human souls are extremely attractive to all demons." Great treats and toys."

Listening to Bafomi's words, Ivan recalled the scene outside the Red Gate, combined with Shaka's introduction about the first floor of hell, it really fits perfectly.

Obviously, letting Bafomi guard the undead is just like letting a vicious dog guard meat buns. Even if he cares about Satan's face, Bafomi secretly stole a lot from himself.

"Then it seems that you still have to thank me."

Ivan couldn't help joking.

Buffalo glanced at Ivan and pouted, looking very cute.

"Whatever you say, but let me ask you something, are you guys at war recently? Why are so many witches' souls falling?"

Buffalo didn't know where he took out a scepter, and tapped it in the air.

"Bang", a thick book taller than Ivan fell from the sky.Ivan roughly saw the words "Roster of Witches in the United States" written on it, and then Baphomet flapped his wings and jumped up, flipping open.

"Let me see. I'll see... one or two... wow twenty-five. That's more dead than in ten years."

Ivan also leaned in front of the book, and he saw that the witch column was densely packed with the names of witches.All those dead names were ticked off by Buffalo.The rest are followed by the date of birth and date of death.It's just that it's not yet time to die, and it hasn't been hooked.

Ivan read the names of these people one by one, but found a phenomenon in surprise: "Why is there no Annalie, Fiona and Mary Lavin?"

Buffalo turned the pages of the book, then closed it, and sat down on the book, with his feet up and down.

"Historically, voodoo queens and super witches are not under the control of this book, and are under the control of Lilith herself. You, I don't know."

The small scepter in Bafomi's hand tapped the book again, and the book disappeared with a "bang".

"Don't tell me I've shown you this book~ Although I don't care about things like regulations, but you know."

Buffalo, this old monster who has lived for an unknown number of years, is like a real child, winking at Ivan.

At this moment, the clock made a "dong dong dong" sound.

Bafomi looked at the clock, looked at Ivan reluctantly, and said, "You have to go, it's almost dawn, otherwise your soul will not be able to go back."

"I've only been there for a while."

It took only about half an hour for Ivan to walk to the Thorn Cliff and talk to Bafomi.

"Time goes by faster here~ Remember, just recite the spell backwards, and it'll be fine~ Hurry up~ Otherwise, in the daytime, the sun will do a lot of damage to the soul."
