Chapter 66 Dogs Fighting, a Mouth Full of Fur

Maggie recovered from her dizziness and then heard this terrible news, causing her vision to go black on the spot.

A novice mage fighting the Undead Queen is simply boosting her power level.

The first thought that flashed through Maggie's mind was 'summon Safa,' but she rejected it in less than a second.

Putting aside the fact that she couldn't be sure if summoning him too many times would lead to the discovery of loopholes in the contract.

Even if, hypothetically, he came here seeking something like a longer life in return, she might as well die.

Maggie wouldn't have relied on the devil if she hadn't been desperate and had no other choice.

If she really wants to rely on the Demon King's power every time she encounters danger, then what's the difference between her and a truly fallen demon apostle?

Fortunately...

We just found that Mirror Spirit; there's still a glimmer of hope for it.

Maggie shook her head vigorously to drive away the discomfort and gently comforted Roy.

"Roy, don't panic. She's evolved into the Queen of the Dead, there's no way she can escape. I have other ideas."

Her extraordinary composure calmed down Roy and the little ghost, who were initially panicking.

Only by maintaining emotional stability can problems be solved.

What she calls madness is just one of Maggie's methods for solving the problem.

"Tell me first, where are Harun and the Mirror Spirit's true form located?"

Maggie's mind raced, the route she had just taken flashing through her head.

"Harlen is rapidly approaching us. The Mirror Spirit's true form is in the storage room on the second floor, covered by a black cloth."

Roy quickly relayed the message to Maggie.

"I understand. I'll wait here for Harlen to come down."

Maggie got up from the stairs and confirmed that she was on the third floor. A chase was about to begin, and she needed to find the shortest route to succeed.

Fortunately, she had walked through the building earlier in search of 'Miss Ghost', so she was fairly familiar with its structure.

"They're here!"

Roy looked up at the top of the stairs and saw Harlen rushing down, holding the Demon Key in his hand, followed by Nesser and Perkin.

The other two were expressionless, both rushing to escape, but Nesser's face showed fear, yet the moment his gaze fell on Maggie, he still spoke up to warn her.

"Sister! Run! We can't beat her!"

Maggie didn't bother to answer at that moment; her gaze fell precisely on the Demon Key in Harun's hand.

"Give me the key! Go to the last room on the second floor, lift the black cloth covering the mirror, hold down the mirror spirit, and take the person inside!"

Maggie yelled at Harlan.

Harlan's eyes flashed with surprise, not understanding what Maggie was planning to do, but he did not hesitate and threw the Demon Key directly at Maggie.

"You should go too, trust me."

Maggie caught the Demon Key with precision and calmly spoke to Roy and the little ghost.

"good."

The little ghost probably guessed what Maggie was going to do, and without hesitation, it flew with Roy towards the second floor.

As Bella's terrifying footsteps and almost ghostly cries rapidly approached, Maggie didn't hesitate and snapped the Demon Key in two.

The next second, a grayish-purple aura rapidly condensed in the air, gradually transforming into a ferocious and terrifying demon. Unlike Safa, this great demon was not humanoid; it was a half-beast form.

"Great Demon, it's your turn to appear!"

Maggie muttered to herself, having experienced the joy of Pokémon, though the things she summoned were a bit exciting.

Before the great demon could fully take shape, Maggie threw away the broken key and quickly turned and ran towards the storeroom.

Besides summoning demons using traditional methods, one can also destroy the Demon Key, which is equivalent to breaking the demon's seal and allowing it to wreak havoc on the continent of Karal.

Theoretically, if there were a power in this world strong enough to destroy the Demon King's Scepter, it would also allow the fully-formed Safa to break the laws and reside permanently on the continent of Coral.

When a demon is no longer bound by laws, its first instinct is to kill the person who destroyed the Demon Key; most people wouldn't do something so foolish.

Maggie thought, "I guess only she would be this crazy."

A loud 'boom' came from behind, accompanied by a huge shockwave. At the critical moment, Maggie slammed the door of the storage room shut, and in front of her was the true form of the Mirror Spirit: Howling Vengeful Woman.

However, she didn't rush in. Instead, she stood quietly in the storeroom, listening to the sounds of Bella fighting the demon outside.

The floor trembled, the door teetered on the brink of collapse, and the illusion of the building was on the verge of crumbling.

Perhaps because Bella didn't want to lose this place of refuge, the noise outside was much less than Maggie had imagined, making her a little uneasy, afraid that the Great Demon and Bella might not fight and instead shake hands and make peace.

However, this was purely her overthinking. Although they are both evil creatures, the undead and demons are naturally opposed, and it is impossible for them not to fight when they meet.

Maggie gripped the moonstone tightly and began using her magic to destroy the internal structure of the magical gem.

Harun's decision not to confront Bella, who had become the Queen of the Dead, was a wise one. The Great Demon was no match for the Queen of the Dead; the difference in their power levels was enormous.

Bella's evolution was completely beyond Maggie's expectations, but it would be reasonable if she went berserk because the Abyss Soul Stone was stolen.

Thinking about it this way, it might have been easier to fight if Harun hadn't gone to get the Abyss Soul Stone.

But it's too late to regret it now.

Maggie closed her eyes, listening intently to the sounds outside. The roars of the Great Demon and Bella were extremely penetrating, and Maggie could only frown and endure the torment on her eardrums.

"Damn undead, don't go too far!"

The demon, symbolizing despair and pain, and the undead, symbolizing death and the abyss, engage in a dog-eat-dog battle, with the irrational Bella indiscriminately attacking anything that stands in her way.

As soon as the great demon broke free of its seal and arrived on the continent of Coral, it was immediately beaten up, which naturally enraged it.

Five or six monsters of a higher level than Maggie were fighting each other. Even the residual power of their battle was oppressive to her. She was still holding her breath and guarding outside, just to completely eliminate Bella.

They fought like the snipe and the clam, and Bella would be greatly exhausted after defeating the great demon, so Maggie gambled on the moment Bella rushed in.

Time passed second by second, and the sounds of fighting outside grew fainter and fainter until the flames flickered outside, and suddenly a burnt smell reached their noses.

Maggie knew that the devil had lost.

The dead demons will turn into flames and burn completely, and it is said that they will return to the magma of hell and reform into new demons.

Maggie was on edge, clutching the moonstone tightly in her hand, which was just one step away from detonation.

The dead can sense the presence of the living; Bella will surely come!

As Maggie was still thinking, a terrifying aura suddenly enveloped her, the intense smell of death even overpowering the acrid smell of a demon's death.

In the nick of time, Maggie didn't hesitate to sever the last stable structure in the moonstone and throw it towards the door that had been violently opened. She then leaped and rolled into the mirror.

The angry howl lingered behind Maggie, fading into the distance. A split second before she crashed to the ground, Maggie heard a deafening explosion. The shockwave made her head buzz, and she instantly lost consciousness.
