Chapter 371 Overlord and domineering?
Chapter 371 Overlord and domineering?
After Miss and others escaped from the town, they immediately left that place of trouble.
He thought the demon generals would notice something, but he didn't expect that after half a day, no demon general came to chase him.
After hiding in a dense forest, Miss cast a spell to conceal his breath and prepared to rest.
Except for Petra, the other demihumans were injured and could not move at high speed in a short period of time.
The blind old man successfully escaped from the dungeon and was ready to part ways with everyone else. "Miss, the demon world is not like your human territory. There are too many uncertainties. If you don't want anything unexpected to happen, just go back to where you came from."
He saw that Miss had other purposes, but moving with a group of wounded people would only increase the danger.
Miss was naturally aware of this, but his attention was entirely on the old man's words.
The old man's reminder was undoubtedly a well-intentioned reminder.
A demon king's well-intentioned reminder to the human race.
This matter is contradictory.
It is impossible for the demons to have good intentions towards humans, Miss has always believed this.
Especially the Demon King, who was influenced by the powerful Demon Eye and Heart, and saw only killing and blood.
"The magic eye and the heart that symbolizes identity? Could it be that... it's impossible? The demons are the demons. Even if they don't have the magic eye and the heart, they are still demons!"
Miss quickly crushed the sudden guess in his mind.
At that moment, he actually felt that the devil's eye and heart were the reason why the demons were evil in nature.
"If that's the case, wouldn't Avervanxon, who has become the Demon King, also be affected..."
Looking at Miss's conflicted expression, Petra thought that Miss was worried about her fellow demihumans.
After all, the goal of rescuing Licia has not been achieved, and Miss will not leave the demon world just like that.
And the subhumans are undoubtedly a burden.
"Miss, leave us alone from now on."
After hearing what Petra said, Miss was stunned, "What?"
Petra said: "We can't help at all, and will only cause more trouble for Miss."
Miss could see that she wanted to help him, "Petra, I said I would keep you by my side, and I promised your mother that I would bring you out of the demon world in one piece."
Petra lowered her head, not daring to look directly at Miss, "But if I stay with you, you will have to distract yourself from taking care of me, and I don't want that."
Seeing this, the other demihumans started to speak up, “Don’t worry about us, we can take care of ourselves.”
"It's safer for Petra to stay with Mr. Mis."
"We are not useless. We can find a way to leave here."
Several people refused to give in to each other and each had his own ideas.
The old man walked up to Mith and asked, "What are you going to do next?"
Mis didn't hide it, because he needed a guide, "I'm going to the central demon king's castle."
The old man nodded and said, "It's on our way, but I have to tell you that the little demihuman girl is right. If you really want to go to that place, you can't take them with you next time."
The old man's tone was telling Miss that the Central Demon King's City was full of dangers.
"At this time, almost all the demon kings are in the central region. If you insist on taking these demihumans with you, you will only harm them and yourself."
After listening to the old man's words, Mis sighed. After thinking about it carefully, he found that the old man's advice did make sense.
Compared to the central area where the demons gather, the danger level in the south is obviously not worth mentioning.
"Do you remember the way here?"
Petra could tell that Miss was asking her.
She showed joy on her face and nodded vigorously, "I remember."
Miss rubbed Petra's head and said, "Don't go back there directly. Hide nearby and wait for me to find you. Do you understand me?"
The old man at the side raised his lips slightly. He knew that Miss's words were obscure and he was on guard against him.
But there was no anger on his face, instead he looked somewhat relieved.
Petra understood what Miss meant, "Don't worry, I understand."
Like an old father instructing his little daughter on a long journey, Miss listed eighteen things that Petra was not allowed to do, which stunned the other demihumans.
Only after making sure that Petra had taken note of all the precautions did Miss let her go.
"Sometimes, you also have to learn to trust your partners." The old man said softly.
Miss looked at the gradually disappearing figure, his expression becoming cold.
"Okay, now we can talk about the problems between us."
Before he finished speaking, he quickly cast a spell, trapping the old man in place and ensuring that he lost his ability to move.
"As a demon king, why were you imprisoned by your own people? Why did you help a human like me? Also, what did you do to my eyes? Why did all the demon soldiers fall to the ground? Why were the demon generals so scared?"
The blind old man did not resist and let Miss do whatever he wanted.
"You have guessed my identity."
Miss kept an eye on the old man, fearing that he might have some means of saving his life.
"answer my question!"
The old man was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke, "Let me explain the problem with the eyes first."
"It is really thanks to our eyes that we were able to leave the small town safely."
"It was the wave of magic power released from your eyes that caused those soldiers to fall into a coma and made those demon generals unable to control the magic power in their bodies for a short period of time."
"It is indeed these eyes that they fear."
"The special ability of these eyes is that they can resonate with the magic power in the demon's body, disrupting the circulation, hindering the flow of magic power, causing the magic power in the demon's body to run wild, thus affecting the body."
"You can think of this ability as bloodline suppression, which only works on demons."
"The weak soldier couldn't handle the uncontrolled magic power in his body, so he fainted."
"The powerful demon generals can indeed suppress the runaway magic, but they cannot take back the control of the magic immediately."
"I think you can understand my explanation."
After listening to the old man's explanation, Miss swallowed.
"Damn, domineering?"
The old man didn't know what the "domineering" he was talking about was, and continued: "But I want to remind you that after you go to the central part, you must not use this ability in front of the Demon King."
Mis asked, "Why? Is it because it doesn't work on the Demon King?"
The old man seemed to be thinking, "It was possible before, but it probably won't work now."
He did not dwell on this point but simply changed the subject.
"Also, you may have discovered a long time ago that your perception of magic is much more sensitive than other people. In fact, it is also the ability of these eyes."
"Not only that, these eyes can also affect other people's emotions. If you use them properly, you can make a calm person furious, or make a heartbroken person smile."
"This is all I understand about these eyes. If they have other abilities, you need to develop them yourself."
Miss was extremely confused. He was well aware of the ability to be sensitive to magical aura, but he had no impression of the ability to control other people's emotions.
Suddenly, he remembered that the ability similar to "Haoshoku Haki" had never appeared before.
Until just now in the dungeon, when the old man used magic on his eyes.
If it wasn't the old man's magic that gave the eyes special powers, then it was the old man's magic that unlocked the seal on the eyes, restoring their original powers.
"Mr. Demon King, why are you so familiar with my eyes?"
