"The magic circle probably failed and shattered because it didn't have Mr. Ari's magic supply, right? After all, even though it was only half of my annihilated magic source, it was still enough to stuff Mr. Ari, so he wouldn't have the mind to maintain that magic circle... But Grandpa's magic and this forbidden spell are really useful... It's just that the recoil is a bit strong and it uses up a lot of materials," Shesi said regretfully, looking at the magic wheel that had already shattered into dust.
At this moment, Ameri ran over, wanting to help Shesi up.
"Don't... My ribs are probably broken, and my hand is probably dislocated, so find someone who can use healing magic later," Shesi quickly stopped her and said.
"You idiot, care about your own body!" Ameri didn't know what to do for a moment and could only yell at Shesi.
"I'm not... sorry," Shesi originally wanted to crack a joke to lighten the mood, but seeing Ameri's reddened eyes and her effort to hold back tears, he lowered his head and said.
Kalego also flew over and looked at Shesi, saying,
"The engravings on your weapon should be a forbidden spell, right?"
"Yes, Kalego-sensei, I reported it to you in advance."
"You only reported it 30 seconds in advance! No, 27 seconds!" Kalego's veins bulged.
"Ah, would you trouble Kalego-sensei to help me find it? There's a high probability... emm, it should... maybe there's still one bullet, it's probably around here? Help me find it, if someone else finds the magic circle engraved on it, it'll be troublesome..." Shesi said.
"Nani! Find it quickly!" Asmodeus and Sabnock next to him quickly started searching. Someone would definitely come to clean up here later, and if that thing wasn't found... if someone accidentally activated the forbidden spell on it... Everyone immediately started searching.
"No... it's fine, the magic circle on that bullet isn't this one, there won't be too much of a problem," Shesi said, reassuring the tense group.
"Ah, Shesi, look, is it this one?" Ameri said, seeing a golden bullet in a corner. It was covered in patterns that made it look very beautiful, but in fact, the patterns were magic circles.
"Ah, yes, thank you," Shesi took the bullet and smiled at Ameri.
"You guys! You're messing around again... always putting yourselves in danger..." Kalego, seeing that the danger had passed, also started lecturing Iruma and Shesi.
"Sensei, you once told me not to get used to danger. I haven't forgotten. Before, I was too used to danger, underestimating its terror. But when the people I cherish faced danger, I remembered the feeling of danger approaching... it was very... terrifying, but I want to protect what I cherish! This is my desire! My ambition!" Iruma touched his heart, which was pounding wildly. Does the evil cycle not feel fear? How could it be? Right now, Iruma's hands and feet were so weak that he couldn't even take a step!
"My hands and feet... even my voice is trembling..." Kalego looked at Iruma in this state and fell silent, then looked at Shesi. Shesi, seeing this, also said,
"I think my brother has the potential to become the Demon King. I want to be a relative, so I have to protect my brother's ambition first."
"That's still no excuse to mess around!"
Opera next to him looked at Iruma and couldn't help but recall a question he had asked Chairman Sullivan when Iruma and Shesi first came to the demon world. Now, it seemed he had an answer.
"I see, I think I understand why you chose these brothers, Chairman."
While things had calmed down above, it was not so peaceful below.
"Look, it's the exit! Hurry and open it, we've successfully escaped!" The prisoners said excitedly, looking at the prison gate within reach, but the moment they grabbed it, a surge of magic bounced several people back.
"Damn it, it's magic."
"Wait, it looks like there's someone outside?" The demons looked out and saw The Six Fingers, cloaked in half-robes, kneeling on one knee, welcoming someone. Upon closer inspection, it was Kiriwo, the thinnest one in the rain.
"Kiriwo? Hey! We're here, open the door for us!" The prisoners shouted loudly, seemingly trying to get Kiriwo's attention.
"Wait, you guys see? Isn't that The Six Fingers? They're actually bowing to Kiriwo?"
"Welcome back, Lord Kiriwo."
"We, The Six Fingers, have come to welcome you," Ueytto, the First Finger, said.
Kiriwo smiled slightly, looking at the astonished gazes of the prisoners.
"So what's the plan this time?"
"We are here on Lord Baal's command to rescue Lord Kiriwo and then destroy Walter Park."
The prisoners behind the prison gate, hearing the plan and realizing there was no intention of releasing them, angrily shouted at Kiriwo,
"What's going on? Kiriwo, are you abandoning us?"
"Abandon? Don't make it sound so bad."
"I never said I would save you," Kiriwo took out a key and unlocked the collar around his neck, which was to suppress his magic. Otherwise, a mere prison gate couldn't stop those prisoners sentenced to decades or centuries.
At this moment, a voice sounded.
"Ah~ So it's Lord Baal~" The Six Fingers and Kiriwo looked in the direction of the voice, only to see Shesi and Sullivan in their demon forms walking out.
Time rewound to two minutes ago.
"Opera, you don't need to call Grandpa over... no, actually, call him," Shesi initially saw Opera preparing to tear the note with Grandpa's instructions to activate the teleportation magic circle on it, allowing Sullivan to teleport over. At first, Shesi didn't want to trouble Grandpa, but then he suddenly thought of something, a mischievous smile appearing on his lips, and then he spoke.
As Opera tore the note, a black teleportation gate appeared, and Sullivan immediately emerged from it, shouting as soon as he appeared,
"What happened? What happened? What happened to my grandsons?" Sullivan knew that unless there was a special situation, his grandsons wouldn't tear the teleportation spell... Of course, it also didn't rule out that his grandsons missed Grandpa~
As soon as he came out, he saw Shesi lying on the side, and his expression immediately turned grim.
"Who did this?" Suddenly, the surrounding demons felt an invisible pressure weighing down on them, unable to even stand. Only Balam, Kalego, and Opera barely managed to stand, but they were also pressing their hands to their chests, looking down at Sullivan.
"Grandpa, I'm fine. Can you help me recover, and then come with me for a bit?"
Time returned to the present.
The appearance of Shesi and Sullivan immediately silenced the scene.
"Senior Kiriwo, tell me, will you put on the handcuffs and shackles yourself and go back to serve your sentence, or... shall I help you?" Shesi said with a mischievous smile, looking at Kiriwo.
"..."
Kiriwo gritted his teeth... He had originally wanted to see the despairing expressions of those prisoners who were so close to freedom yet couldn't attain it... Now, it seemed it was his turn. He didn't want to see his own desperate expression again... even though that look was also perfect.
