"Shauna? What are you doing here?! "
When the two of them turned their heads, they were surprised to see a young figure lying on the ground. Karina immediately put down the gauntlet in her hand and ran to Lakshanna, who was also Lux, who was lying on the ground. But no matter how she called out to the little girl on the ground, the little girl's eyes were closed tightly and she didn't respond.
Li Ke also ran over and tried to keep Yatoku as far away from him as possible because the young Lux's reaction was almost exactly the same as Karina's. And after Li Ke arrived, Karina, who was carrying Lux, looked at the magical sword – Yatoku that Li Ke placed in the corner and had some guesses in her mind.
"What's going on? Could it be …"
Li Ke didn't refute because even when he first came into contact with Yatoku, he was almost attracted by the power on Yatoku's body and was pulled into an illusion by the murderous aura on Yatoku's body. Then, he lost his mind completely.
"I think so."
He didn't deny it. After all, it was very likely that Lux was secretly staring at Yatoku in his hand while eavesdropping on their conversation. And both Karina and Rhode fell into an illusion when they first came into contact with Yatoku, so the young Lux obviously couldn't avoid it. If her mind wasn't pulled out of Yatoku's illusion in time, it was likely to cause serious damage to her.
That was why he reached out his right hand to Lux's forehead, but Karina suddenly grabbed his hand. Then, when he looked over, she bit her lip and let go of Li Ke's hand. Li Ke didn't say much. He pointed his right hand, which was emitting blue light, at Lux's forehead that was starting to sweat. Then, he activated his magic and used his consciousness to search for Lux's consciousness.
But unfortunately, when he came into contact with Lux's mind and forced his way in, he happened to see a bright red and pitch-black power completely enveloping a little girl at the last moment. And in front of him, a huge demon with a pair of wings and a sharp sword in his hand appeared.
"Yatox!"
Li Ke couldn't help but call out the name of this demon who kept causing trouble for him, the former Celestial Warrior. If she was only intimidated by his murderous aura, he definitely wouldn't have appeared in Lacus' inner world, and Lacus wouldn't have been affected by his negative emotions so quickly. However, Yatokus didn't react much to Li Ke's voice, nor did he attack directly. Instead, he slowly walked in front of Li Ke and spoke to Li Ke in a calm voice.
"You are too lazy, mortal."
He looked down at Li Ke as if he was looking at something unbelievable.
"You came to this country to find a way to seal me, right? But look at what you've done. In order to save someone, he had to feign civility with a stupid woman? Are you serious? Mortal, do you really want to use this kind of attitude against me? And find a way to seal me? Are you looking down on me? "
His face was full of mockery, and his smile was full of disdain.
"I don't have time to talk to you about this. Yatox, get out of my way!"
A sword and saber also appeared in Li Ke's hand. Although his consciousness was suppressed in Lacus' consciousness, and he could not conjure countless divine weapons with a wave of his hand like in his own consciousness, he still had the ability to deal with Yatokus with weapons. But he also knew that it would be difficult for him to defeat Yatox's consciousness. As for Yatox's words, he didn't care about them at all. After all, if Yatox really wanted to find the Forbidden Magic Stone by hook or by crook, he wouldn't be himself anymore.
Moreover, although the Forbidden Magic Stone was precious, it wasn't something that couldn't be obtained with money.
"Hah, tragic courage. It seems like you think that because of yourself … Yes, because of an innocent child, you can die a little easier when you fight me. The thoughts of mortals are always hilarious. Alright, in order to let you feel that you've become stronger, I'll tell you one thing. If I kill that girl's consciousness here, then she'll be mentally retarded forever and live like a pig for the rest of her life … Tell me, do you think I should do that? "
Yatox smiled and pointed his sword at Lux's consciousness. Li Ke, who was ready to attack, brandished his sword at the same time and rushed toward him. But just like in the battle with Freldrod, Yatox easily suppressed Li Ke's sword and used his terrifying power to force Li Ke's consciousness out of Yatox's body. Li Ke tried hard to resist, but the moment he got close to Yatox, endless darkness and silence would appear in his mind. The Dark-Kin power in Yatox's body was also constantly corroding Li Ke's soul.
But Yatox was not in a hurry to force Li Ke out of Lux's consciousness. Instead, he gritted his teeth and continued to speak slowly beside Li Ke.
"Mobilize the power of an ascender, mortal. Otherwise, I'll let you watch as I kill this girl's consciousness and turn her young body into my nourishment."
Li Ke's eyes widened when he heard this. He looked at Yatox, who was close to him with tears of blood flowing down his face, while urging the little divine power in his body, as well as the Fire of Orne, to push Yatox's greatsword away. Then, he slashed Yatox's body with the two swords entwined with flames and lightning.
But unfortunately, the attack that could leave scars on Yatoku's body and even cut him in half didn't have any effect at all. Instead, it exposed his weakness, and he was kicked out by Yatokus, almost leaving Lux's consciousness.
And before he could regain his consciousness, Yatox's body appeared beside Li Ke as though he had teleported. He grabbed Li Ke's neck and forced Li Ke's face to be level with his own.
"I told you, didn't I? I told you to use the power of an ascender to fight against me! But you pretended not to hear it, right? Or are you only willing to use the power that comes from me if I really obliterate this little girl's soul … Fine, as you wish. "
After Yatokus finished speaking, he casually threw Li Ke to the ground, causing Li Ke's consciousness to suffer another heavy blow. Then, he took his sword and walked toward the black sphere that enveloped Lux. When Li Ke barely recovered his consciousness and 'stood up' from the ground, he saw Yatokus raising the sword in his hand and slashing at the black sphere.
Then, a pale blue light appeared in this dark space.
