"I..."
Karl was also confused at this time. Space magic? What the hell is this?
If his ability really needs to be classified, it is time magic.
His plan was to reveal that he could control time and make the enemy in front of him despair.
But looking at the trio in front of him, he soon felt relieved.
Compared to the shocking ability of stopping time, space transfer does sound more acceptable.
He just needs to put in a little more effort to achieve his goal.
Carl looked down at the three of them and raised his hand again: "Because when you encounter a power beyond your cognition, you choose to deny its existence and then spend your life in mediocrity."
He pointed his finger at Chris again.
"Feel with your body and break the cage that imprisons your cognition."
Chris's face turned pale instantly, panic flashed in her eyes, and the swelling feeling in her stomach and abdomen was still irritating her nerves.
She subconsciously took a step back, her voice panicking: “No…don’t!”
She made so much the first time, she didn’t dare to imagine what would happen if it happened again.
In the next second, the whole world around stopped.
Chris's panicked expression froze on her face.
Carl stood up and walked towards the pile of gems behind him. These were the gems left by the evil dragon Carl. In a sense, he could be considered rich enough to rival a country.
He carefully selected the gems of various shapes, weighing them in his hands, and whispered to himself, "This one is too big. It will break."
He is not a devil. After all, Chris is his first woman, so she always has some special commemorative significance.
After some selection, Carl found six gems the size of his thumb.
Although the gemstone is a little bumpy, it's not a big problem.
He took the gems and walked up to Chris.
Chris's face was full of fear, but it still couldn't hide her holy beauty.
With the experience from last time, Carl moved skillfully. He lifted up her gorgeous nun's skirt and saw that her thighs were covered with liquid.
Apparently she wasn't able to control it with her muscles.
Carl took a look, then looked away and stuffed the gems in from the back.
Although the size of the gemstone was not exactly right, there was no bleeding due to the stagnation of time.
These lacerations will appear the moment the time stop is released.
“It looks so good.” Karl couldn’t help but put his arms around her slender waist and add some more ingredients.
Chapter 6 Am I a villain?
"Ah?!" Chris screamed in pain. She covered her abdomen with her hands and knelt heavily on the ground.
Fear, pain, and powerlessness appeared in her eyes.
The tearing and muddy feeling behind her made it almost impossible for her to breathe.
And unlike the last time, she could clearly feel a hard foreign object placed in her body.
"Chris!" Will exclaimed, his voice filled with surprise.
He had been trying hard to maintain the magic circle, but Chris was still injured, making his efforts seem like a sad joke.
Sylvie quickly squatted down and held the shaky Chris tightly. "How is it?"
Chris was in so much pain that she could hardly speak and her body was shaking slightly.
"I..."
Chris opened her mouth but couldn't tell the truth.
Being stuffed with gems, and not just one, the abnormal feeling was too embarrassing for her to talk about. She held Sylvie's hand tightly, with a look of fear and helplessness in her eyes:
"He... he can really use space magic, and can put weapons directly into our bodies. That kind of magic circle... is impossible to defend against."
Hearing this, Xi Wei still couldn't believe it: "How...how is it possible?"
She looked up at Karl with a confused look in her eyes.
If Carl is really so powerful that he can transmit weapons into their bodies at will, then wouldn't all their previous efforts be a joke?
All Carl needed to do was to teleport a long sword into her body, and she would be dead for sure.
This thought made Sylvie shudder. She looked at Chris's painful expression and her faith began to waver.
They thought they were ready to face any difficulties.
But now it seems that, is it really as Carl just said, they know nothing about power.
Carl breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the change in Sylvie's expression. Just as he had planned, the pastor's mentality had now collapsed.
Only two of the three enemies remain.
However, Sylvie's courage and faith have begun to waver, and the strength she can demonstrate will be greatly reduced.
Of course, even if Sylvie's strength had declined, killing him would only be a matter of one or two strikes.
"Don't be confused." Will suddenly spoke up. He still maintained the magic circle with a firm look in his eyes. "If Karl could use space magic at will, he wouldn't have said so much to us. All this is his trick. He wants to defeat us psychologically."
Will turned his gaze to Sylvie, his eyes revealing deep emotion: "I like you because you are the one who will bravely swing your sword no matter what kind of hardship you encounter."
Sylvie listened to Will's words, and after a brief silence, she held the sword in her hand again: "I understand. I have nothing to fear anymore.
For this country, for my father, my mother, and my sister, I will fight to the end with a portion of your strength.”
"I will support you, just like I have countless times before." Seeing Sylvie's fighting spirit, Will showed a relieved smile on his face.
He turned to look at Carl, his eyes unyielding: "Carl, let me show you the determination of the humans you have ravaged."
Sylvie's eyes had gotten rid of the confusion and hesitation from just now, and only a strong desire to fight remained in them.
Chris also stood up despite the severe pain and raised her cane.
"Damn it." Carl was stunned. He successfully made these three people feel that he was invincible.
But it was obvious that these three people were ready to risk their lives, not to defeat him, but to die, and wanted to use their lives to demonstrate the so-called human will.
“Do we have to fight so hard?” Carl sighed secretly, but there was no panic on his face.
Despite the trio's extreme reactions, he still had everything under control.
Now is the final moment.
Whether you can survive depends on this next shake.
"Hahahaha." Carl suddenly laughed out loud. The dragon clan's unique loud laughter echoed in the hall, arrogant and sarcastic.
He stopped laughing and looked at Will, Sylvie and Chris with sharp eyes:
"My existence is the foundation for maintaining peace in this country. Now, you actually want to kill me in the name of this country. How ridiculous."
The three of them looked strange when they heard this. Sylvie came to her senses first. Her face turned pale instantly, and anger flashed in her eyes:
"That's enough! Are you still teasing us?"
"Wielding weapons to kill enemies and using violence without restraint will only bring more misfortune." Carl supported his chin with one hand and spoke in a calm tone, which was completely inconsistent with his image as a dragon.
When Sylvie heard this, she felt a wave of absurdity in her heart.
Carl is an evil dragon who has been doing evil for decades, destroying countless families and killing countless people.
She found it ironic and ridiculous to hear him say that "violence brings misfortune".
"Sylvie." Carl said softly, "If there were no monsters, all humans could live in peace and it would become the peaceful world you mentioned. Then, would people be happy?"
This question surprised Sylvie.
Although she didn't want to discuss issues with a dragon like Carl, the strength Carl just showed made her instinctively feel that he was invincible.
Instinctively, I don't want to fight right away.
“Of course they will be happy!” Sylvie glared at Karl: “People no longer have to wander around because of you, and they no longer have to watch their parents and sister die in front of them and be powerless to do anything.”
"No." Carl shook his head: "If that happens, it will only lead to an even more tragic tragedy."
Sylvie frowned unconsciously, obviously thinking that Karl was talking nonsense.
"If there were no threats," Carl continued, "people would give birth to the next generation without worry. However, each acre of land can only produce a limited amount of food. When the land cannot meet the growing needs of humans, humans will begin to seek survival at all costs."
He paused, his eyes revealing a deep worry: "Those professionals, in order to survive, will start hunting and slaughter countless lives."
"When the beasts and land produced by nature cannot meet the needs of human beings. Human beings will begin to kill each other for survival resources."
"Until the human population recovers to a level that this land can sustain. By then, how many innocent lives will die."
"My existence is a part of the repair system, using the least amount of killing to prevent greater death."
"You're talking nonsense!" Sylvie's face turned pale.
She wanted to retort, but she was just a hero facing the words of the Demon King.
This was obviously beyond her comprehension, so she had no choice but to turn her gaze to her companions.
"The world you describe does not exist at all." Will was a prince after all, and he was not shaken.
"That's right." Carl looked at him: "Because you are here, you own a lot of land and wealth, and you will exploit the extra population.
They usually enjoy privileged positions in politics, abuse their power and engage in corruption, leaving the common people to live in perpetual poverty, oppression and slavery.”
After Karl finished speaking, he looked at Sylvie and said, “Just like what I said just now, I’m very happy that you can come all the way to me.”
"I see the possibility in you to end this tragic cycle and build a world where all living things on this land can truly achieve relative happiness."
"?" Sylvie opened her mouth wide.
"?" Will also opened his mouth wide. He vaguely felt that he was about to become a villain.
"?" Chris also opened her mouth wide. Why did this evil dragon do such an outrageous thing to her? The gem was still in her body.
Yet he can speak so gloriously.
Chapter 7 Time Stop Enhancement
"Countless brilliant and powerful people have appeared on this continent. They left behind epics that are passed down to future generations." Carl's voice was low, and when he spoke, he revealed the sharp and ferocious jagged teeth unique to black dragons.
But he does not have the brutality and arrogance that dragons have always given people. Instead, he looks like a wise man.
"But the creatures on this continent have not become happier because of this."
"Famine, war and exploitation still make life miserable. This world should not be like this."
A trace of sadness flashed in Carl's eyes: "Xylvie, you are lucky. You are a brave man. You have the power to defeat the devil."
"People are always used to blaming all evil on the devil, but nothing will change after the devil dies."
"The world will continue to move forward along the pathetic cycle. The weak will be exploited and oppressed, the fittest will survive, and the strong will prey on the weak, and people don't think it's wrong to do so."
Carl's tone slightly raised: "But this world is wrong! Any life born should have the right to enjoy this world and feel the beauty of the world, instead of becoming a slave and then giving birth to new slaves."
“Xylvie, tell me.” Karl’s every word seemed to carry a heavy weight: “Is your way of being a hero to become an accomplice in this tragic cycle?”
Sylvie opened her mouth as if she was struck by something, but found herself speechless.
Her identity was originally just a small villager, and she never thought that she would be involved in such deep thinking.
Of course, the premise of all this is that the dragon in front of her is far more powerful than her.
This forced her to think instead of just raising her sword and striking.
Will stood aside. As a prince, he instinctively felt that Carl was saying something very dangerous.
He saw Sylvie's hesitation, and his heart tightened. He shouted anxiously: "Don't fall for his trick! Sylvie!"
Sylvie's lips moved, but she only managed a weak "I..."
She could feel Will's urgency, but Karl was so strong that she chose to listen to his reason.
Sylvie is willing to sacrifice herself for her beliefs.
