At the same time, in Josiah's room.
White magic particles gathered in the room, and in just a few seconds, the gathered magic particles formed the figure of a human.
This figure eventually condensed from an illusion to a solid body.
A human female appeared in Josiah's room. She collapsed on the ground, exhausted. The magic robe she was wearing proved that physical strength was not her forte.
On the end of the delicate short staff in her hand, a line of small words was engraved: "Hiri Leuder."
That was her name.
She was a magic apprentice who traveled around to learn. Due to financial difficulties, she hitched a ride with a caravan, ready to go to the capital of magic, Noland, to find her sister for help.
Who knew that something unexpected would happen, or maybe she was just too unlucky. Not only was the caravan she was on was robbed by bandits, but she was also kidnapped by a group of dangerous demons.
Every time Ciri recalled the scene of her being kidnapped, she would feel a lingering fear in her heart. After all, she only had a glimpse of the existence of a Karmic Demon from the records of books.
When she really faced the dangerous existence of the sin demons, fear had long made Hiri forget to breathe.
After the demon kidnapped her and some villagers who survived to the Realm of Devils, it only locked her in a cage and did not kill her.
What was waiting for Hiri in the cage, Hiri did not know. Perhaps she would be fed to the monster as food, or become a sacrifice for some bloody ritual.
The impression humans had of demons was cruel and tyrannical, so Ciri couldn't continue to wait helplessly for death in the cage, so she chose to use the most valuable thing she had on her, a ring engraved with the "short distance teleportation" spell.
Watching the ring on her fingertip turn into powder, Hiri's heart seemed to turn into powder along with it.
This thing was enough to cover three years of her food expenses. Back then, she had to put down her pride and ask for it from her rich sister.
Three years of food money in exchange for her life was very worth it.
Hiri used this method to convince herself, but she was still in the Realm of Devils, where a lot of demons lived.
Escaping from the cage didn't mean anything. He had to find a way to return to the human world.
Hiri looked around the room. It was so messy that Hiri thought it was some kind of storeroom.
In the storeroom … there were so many books piled up on the floor. Perhaps there was a map of the Devil Realm?
With this thought in mind, Hiri began to search through the piles of books on the floor.
In a place like the Demon Realm where danger lurked everywhere, running around without any plan was undoubtedly courting death. Hiri's courage was not that big yet.
As long as she could find the map, her chances of survival would increase.
She began to search through the pile of books nervously. Gradually, her search area expanded from the ground to the desk next to her.
Beauty and the Devil? What is this?
A stack of white paper on the table attracted Hiri's attention. More accurately, it was the title written on the paper.
Curiosity was something that every magician needed, and Hiri was no exception. She reached out her hand and opened the first page of the folded paper. When she saw the first line of words, her attention was instantly attracted.
"A long time ago, there was a rich merchant who had three daughters. This merchant was a very wise man. In order to educate his children … "
When Hiri finished reading the first paragraph, the idea of "taking one look and then leaving" in her mind completely disappeared. Instead, her mind was filled with the story constructed by the words on the white paper.
As a magic apprentice, Hiri had always thought that words were a boring thing, and that the function of the invention of words was to record.
The great magicians recorded their latest discoveries with difficult words. There were theories about magic, and when put together, they became a book. Most of the books in this world were like this. They were indeed filled with all kinds of useful knowledge, but they were so boring that Hiri wanted to sleep.
At this moment, Hiri was shocked to find that … words were such an interesting thing.
What was the development of the story? What happened to Belle's father in the end? Did Belle go to the devil's castle?
Similar questions filled Hiri's mind. It was like a person who had not eaten for a long time tasting a delicious meal.
Just as Ciri was engrossed in reading, the story had just advanced to the exciting scene where the female lead, Belle, confronted the demon in the castle … Ciri flipped to the next page, only to find that it was completely blank.
Why is it gone!?
To confirm, Hiri turned a few more pages and found that they were all blank. The story stopped at the most exciting part.
This kind of eagerness to know the development of the story made Hiri extremely depressed.
Who … Who the hell wrote this thing?
She now had the urge to find the author and force him to continue writing everything.
But in a flash, Hiri suddenly came to her senses.
She … was in the Devil Realm! In other words, the author was very likely to be a devil, and she was now … running away!
Oh my god!
It was too late when Hiri realized that she should be looking for a place to escape and not be engrossed in these words.
The door of this room was slowly pushed open.
…
Josiah returned to the Imperial City from the reception hall alone.
The problem of the female lead was temporarily solved. The biggest obstacle in the remaining filming plan was the problem of the camera.
Josiah had to find a way to solve the problem of the scenes stored in the raw crystal as soon as possible.
Josiah had no sense of direction. It took him more than ten minutes to reach the door of his room. Before he pushed the door open, Josiah sensed that there seemed to be a … little mouse inside?
Sure enough, the moment Josiah pushed the door open, the surrounding magical elements began to move restlessly. A huge impact hit Josiah, and the candles in the room were instantly extinguished by this impact.
Gray magical power overflowed from Josiah's hand. He gently clenched his fist, and the impact made up of magical power instantly dissipated into nothingness.
Although Josiah was the weakest among his siblings, it didn't mean that Josiah was so weak that he didn't even have the ability to fight. After all, the Chaos Devil was the top race among all the devils.
The little mouse's attack was not over yet. Pale white inscriptions flickered around her body. A few books on the ground floated up and became her weapon, shooting towards Josiah.
Josiah's pupils contracted. The gray magical power in his hand instantly overflowed and crushed the magical power surrounding the books.
The unique magical characteristic of the Chaos Devil was' chaos'. Not only his own magical power, but also the enemy's magical power, Josiah could also make them fall into a state of 'chaos'.
