The Author's POV

Chapter 114

-Fwap!

Appearing from the other side of a tall building, standing in the air, a two-meter tall demon with two large bat-like wings covered the sun. Staring at Angelica from above, Everblood slightly laughed

"Kukuku, it seems like nothing escapes your perception, Madam Matriarch, or would you prefer it if I called you Angelica Von Droix?"

-Vooom!

As soon as those words escaped from Everblood's mouth, as if he had triggered Angelica's reverse scale, an overwhelming pressure bore down on everything that was around her. Everything that was around her blew away as fine miniature crevices appeared beneath the ground of where she was standing.

Staring at Everblood with bloodshot eyes, she venomously spat

"It seems like you have a death wish, Everblood..."

Noticing Angelica's expression, Everblood covered his mouth. From time to time his body would tremble as he tried his best to hold his laughter...in the end, he failed.

"Kukuku...kukuku...kuku-hahahahahaah"

"What are you laughing at!"

After a couple of seconds of maniacal laughter, wiping the tears that had appeared on the corner of his eyes, Everblood couldn't help but say

"...there's no need for you to pretend anymore"

"What are you talking about?"

Leisurely standing in the air, Everblood glanced at Angelica with slight contempt in his eyes.

"...That as of right now you are not my match"

As if Everblood's words pierced her heart, Angelica couldn't help but grit her teeth in anger. Staring at Everblood in the air, with her jaw clenched, Angelica angrily spat

"...so it was you who planned all of this?"

Pausing for a moment, whilst still in the air, Everblood shook his hands as he innocently said

"No, no, no, believe me. I'm innocent with regards to this incident."

"...Than what are you here for?"

Pausing, a wide smile appeared on Everblood's face. Glancing at the black coffin in the corner of his eyes, he slowly said

"...I'm just here to borrow the coffin of the cursed night"

-Vuam!

Instantly, the world around Angelica became dyed in red, as a humongous pressure bore down on everything that was within her vicinity. Taking a step forward, Angelica glared at Everblood.

"How dare you!-pfff"

However, before Angelica could finish her sentence, abruptly putting her hand on her mouth, black blood dripped from the gaps of her hands.

Noticing Angelica's predicament, licking his lips, Everblood couldn't help but chuckle as he slowly descended from the air.

"Ah...it seems like you've run out of gas, what a pity...kukuku"
