"Black Knight" controls the enemy's shadow, "Dominion of Shadows", and "Spirit Flesh Blade" who can cut through all defenses and even attack conceptual targets, such as "Mirror World". Angel has already experienced it with Aurora Order's Saint during a sneak attack on Mr. X.

Therefore, her legs were bound by the shadow, and the experience of Greatsword being chopped off on the head did not make her panic. Instead, she felt a sense of familiarity in her heart.

Met the members of "Aurora Order" again!

Boom——

Blue flames ignited on both sides of the blades of "Angelica's Edge" in her hand, and the scorching heat instantly burned the mutated shadows under her feet to ashes. Even Greatsword in Black Knight's hand burned because of its "destruction" characteristics, and the aura that seemed to cut through everything was reduced.

Bang, two blades, one long and one short, collided together. The squirming black matter and the high-temperature flames instantly mixed together and then separated from each other. The flame color turned orange, the temperature dropped, and the black blade with a depraved aura broke into two halves again. The tip of the sword turned into flesh and blood, returning to the surface of Black Knight's armor and blending into the lightless darkness.

Before he could summon the same Greatsword again, Angel retracted his arm, held the sword flat with both hands, and stabbed the tall Black Knight directly in the chest.

A little black Cursed Flame ignited at the tip of the sword, covering the entire long sword in an instant, replenishing the consumed flame.

The black flames and the flames that gradually turned from orange to yellow-white merged harmoniously into one, forming a gray, strange flame that did not exist in the normal environment. It contained the aura of destroying everything inside, and it was about to penetrate Black Knight's breastplate without any obstruction and pierce into his body.

Black Knight's eyes on the visor suddenly brightened and turned into two spots of light.

"Mental Piercing!"

Angel His head suddenly stung, as if a dagger had been inserted into it and stirred several times.

The pain was severe and short-lived, but it was enough to make Angel stop what he was doing.

The next second, she was swept away by a Greatsword into mirror fragments flying in all directions. The sword's edge continued unabated, cutting off the big trees on both sides, and the leaves fell like rain.

Behind a tree that only two people could embrace, Angel's figure was outlined. There was a deep mark on her clothes, revealing the smooth skin underneath. It was the damage of "Spirit Flesh Blade" that spanned Mirror World.

If she had used "Mirror Substitution" later, I'm afraid it would not only be the clothes that would be harmed, but her flesh and blood and even her soul!

But her hesitation was not fruitless. The moment she was struck, Black Knight's body also ignited black flames that could annihilate Spirituality and burn his flesh and blood. At this time, Cursed Flame was spreading on him, penetrating the gaps in the armor, entering the interior, chasing all Spirituality, using it as fuel to burn everything.

This is the experience Angel has gained from many battles with "Secrets Suppliant" Pathway. Their Flesh Magic is most afraid of Black Flame who targets Spirituality!

Boom——

A huge fire ignited at the edge of the forest. Black Knight's pitch-black armor was surrounded by the taller Black Flame, almost becoming a burning torch. Angel grabbed hold of Straight Sword and jumped out from behind the tree. Spirituality was poured into the weapon, making it light up the sword blades on both sides again. He was about to step forward to make up for it with a sword.

She didn't believe that a Sequence 4 would die so easily under Black Flame.

Sure enough, the armor Distortion in Black Flame deformed and quickly turned into a black shadow, almost blending into the ground, and moved quickly under the sun. However, it did not try to stay away from Angel, but quickly approached, one person and one shadow walked towards each other, and they collided with each other in an instant.

The shadow "grows" out of the ground in an instant, transforming into a strong and tough "Black Knight". It nimbly avoids Angel's thrusts and chops Greatsword down head on.

But Greatsword, whose length is almost longer than the height of a normal person, is very Slowing in close combat. Angel didn't even use "Mirror Substitution" and just went around. Arriving behind Black Knight, she stepped on Black Flame to kill the shadow beneath her that was about to move again. She held her own Edge with both hands and activated Mighty Blow.

A tooth-piercing sound of metal friction came. Angelica's Edge penetrated the armor from Black Knight's lower back and left from the right shoulder, creating a huge wound that almost split it in two. There were even traces of melting on the edge of the crack in the black armor. The flesh and blood inside burned with flames, gushing out from this wound and other gaps in the armor.

In the next moment, the black armor, which was more than two meters tall and resembled an ancient giant, shattered into thousands of dark fragments. Black and blue flames fell to the ground, and then faded and disappeared.

Is this "Mirror Substitution"?

Angel frowned slightly, but was not too surprised.

It would be surprising if a "Black Knight" who was promoted from "Shepherd" did not have any soul from Grazing and only relied on his own ability to fight.

She immediately spread the disease, sweeping through the surrounding woods, the grassland not far away, and even penetrated deep into "Fountain of Youth" in the yellow grassland, capturing Black Knight who used the soul of "Demoness" of Grazing to escape the fatal blow.

But these occult diseases are like falling into the sea. Except for the rapid death of insects in the forest and maggots in the mud, no real "victims" appear within the range of Angel's perception.

He Grazing is a "desperate" Demoness, fighting against my occult disease?

Angel realized something and looked at the grass ahead.

In the sunlight, a figure was outlined. It was a lady wearing a black robe, with her hair and half of her face hidden in the hood, only revealing her white chin and eye-catching red lips.

Will the Demigod level "Grazing" even reflect the original appearance of the soul in "Black Knight"... Angel watched dumbly as the strong man who was split into pieces by a sword turned into a weak lady in the blink of an eye, with various thoughts flashing through his mind.

Immediately afterwards, she saw the "Despair" Demoness drawing out two Cursed Black Flame beside her, causing the flames to explode, and the black flame waves were dyed with an orange luster.

Then, two new figures walked out of the flames.

It was "Black Knight", and a short young man wearing a short shirt and wide-leg pants, with short blond hair like a hedgehog.

Flaming Jump!

No, that's not Grazing. The Black Knight of "Seer" appears together with the real "Seer", but...

Just now, Black Knight always moved a little slower, Dalielie's tactics of not caring about being attacked, and the ending of suddenly turning into mirror fragments all came to Angel's mind, and she immediately thought of a terrible possibility.

"Trick Sorcerer?"

she asked cautiously.

"Black Knight", "Demoness of Despair" and the young man who looked a bit like Intis showed the same smile.

This unified action made Angel seem to have seen the pranks Klein used Marionette to arrange from time to time, and confirmed his guess without any doubt.

But why is there Trick Sorcerer waiting near "Fountain of Youth" controlled by "Demoness Sect"?

If Black Knight can be explained by the cooperation between "Aurora Order" and Demoness, "Seer" and "Pathway" where "Trick Sorcerer" is located are almost all controlled by the mysterious organization Secret Order, and "Demoness Sect" has no intersection at all... By the way, most of the members of this organization are Intis people. No wonder one of the Marionettes he controls has a strong Intis style... However, this may also be his deliberate misleading. "Seer" is the best at deceiving people.

Constantly recalling every bit of information about the origins and abilities of "Trick Sorcerer" in his mind, Angel saw that the three men and women who were obviously Marionette, and at least two of them were Demigod, kept a strange smile, and did not try to launch an attack, so he simply asked:

"What is the purpose of your waiting here? To protect 'Fountain of Youth'? Or to wait for a certain promoted Demoness?"

The only reasons she could think of were these two, otherwise which Demigod would spend decades hiding in this special Mirror World, spending one miserable time after another on an isolated island?

Even if Demoness is with her, and she can even listen to the ravings of "True Creator" heard by Marionette, that would be too boring... She cursed, and saw "Black Knight" standing on one side, but with an imposing manner like the head of the three, and said:

"I said, everyone just takes what they need... Limited by a certain contract, I must get rid of those Demoness that do not belong to 'Demoness Sect', that's all."

On the other side of Demoness, the blond Intis young man took over the conversation arrogantly:

"So, just leave and no one will get hurt."

He uses Intisian, which is consistent with Marionette's identity, is it also some kind of "acting"... Angel can't help but compare Trick Sorcerer, who serves "Demoness Sect", with Klein, and is quite moved by his suggestions.

With her current strength, she has no absolute chance of winning against a trickster who has herded "Despair" and "Black Knight". If the other party has no intention of chasing, then I, first, leave... leave...

Her thoughts suddenly became Slowing, and her limbs entered a state of paralysis.

She was controlled by that Trick Sorcerer "Spirit Body Threads"!

As a partner of Trick Sorcerer, Angel naturally knows all the elements of this powerful Beyonder Ability. It can only perform preliminary control on targets within 150 meters of Trick Sorcerer, and it takes at least 3 seconds.

Although there is no "Trick Sorcerer" within 150 meters around her, through the transfer of abilities between "Marionette", Trick Sorcerer can extend the distance he can control Spirit Body Threads, up to the maximum control distance of Marionette, which is more than one thousand meters!

This means that "Trick Sorcerer" may be hidden anywhere in the core area of the island.

Although her disease can spread to this range, it will take more time and is being interfered with and offset by another "Despair" Demoness. This time is enough for her to become Marionette dozens of times...

In her dull eyes, "Black Knight" suddenly turned the black shadow on his body into Greatsword, and jumped out from the Black Flame guided by "Despair" Demoness, jumping down from the air towards her. The blond young man smiled and snapped his fingers, pointing at Angel, as if to convey some kind of power to her.

But apart from Hidden Holy Emblem on his wrist getting colder and colder, Angel didn't feel any other abnormalities.

Of course, thoughts that are becoming more and more stagnant are not included.

Boom——

Greatsword was smashed down, and "Angel"'s soul and body were separated in an instant, and its body was cut into two pieces. Spirit Body was smashed into pieces by the power of "fall".

Then, under the gaze of "Black Knight", their outlines faded and gradually disappeared.

That's a stand-in!

Without words, the minds shared between Marionette immediately understood everything that was happening. Demoness, who was wearing a black robe, kept flashing his eyes, and found Angel's hiding place in "Mirror World". Black Knight slashed to the side with a sword without any hesitation.

There was a faint sound of shattering mirrors, and a deep, dim light flashed above the empty grass, and the figure of Angel appeared again.

The "Angelica's Edge" she held in her right hand was placed diagonally on her left shoulder, deftly deflecting "Spirit Flesh Blade". Then when the opponent's Greatsword hit the ground, she raised Straight Sword with her backhand and pointed the tip of the sword at "Black Knight" and at the "Despair" Demoness behind him.

Blue-purple flames capable of destroying everything appeared from the tip of the sword, penetrated the black armor, penetrated a distance of a hundred meters, penetrated Demoness's black robe, and burned everything it touched to ashes.
