Law of the Devil Chapter 63: Semel’s Appearance

“!!” Du Wei yelled and pushed the mercenary down next to him. Then taking out his dagger, he stabbed the knife into the thigh of that mercenary without hesitation, hoping the pain would be enough to wake him… But Du Wei was disappointed!

Despite his efforts, the guy showed no signs of coming out of their stupor.  Ignoring Du Wei and the bleed wound on his thigh, the guy struggled to climb up as he aimed for the lake. As he did so, the blood of this mercenary stained the ground an icy red…..

Du Wei felt hopeless at this situation. He wanted to use magic to help, but the range of a fireball cannot travel far… Not to mention the distance between him and the ghost is at least 5 to 6 hundred steps!

Unfortunately Du Wei still didn’t master the art of flight magic; otherwise, he would fly into the sky and throw a fireball!

It was at this moment an idea hit him.

Spiritual magic! There is still *** spiritual magic!!

Du Wei hurriedly struggled to remember what he had read about spiritual magic, but he felt hopeless because the set of spells he knew was in no way similar to that department. A spiritual magician was at the intermediate level. Based on the current strength of Du Wei, he still could not reach that level.

What could he do! The second mercenary had already jumped into the ice hole. Slapping himself for his own uselessness, Du Wei rushed forward with utmost speed to knock down other mercenaries. Then using a rope in his bag, he tied up all of the ones he managed to get to….

Although Du Wei tried his best, he was only one person. After tying up three people, two more mercenaries had dropped down the ice hole!

Du Wei wheezed and shouted loudly, “What the hell is that thing!!!!”

“It’s an attack from the ‘Magic Lake Monster’.” Semel said from the back.

Du Wei looked back and saw Semel in a red gown standing behind him. This lady looked overwhelmed with fear and surprise. Du Wei saw that even her red gown was shaking; you could tell that she was not calm!

“Semel! Shit! Why you are so late!” Du Wei shouted loudly, “You know that thing? What is that! You know how to crack that?! Oh man, the mercenaries are going to die!”

Semel seemed confused. She was stressed and clutching her head tightly. “I…I should know that…I’ve heard that before. What I am doing! What’s going on? I know what this thing is called! Why…there are so many things in my mind…

“There is no time for you to figure out these things!” If Semel was a real person, Du Wei probably would have grabbed her and yelled at her. Unfortunately Semel is just a shadow; he could only stare at her, “Tell me, how do I defeat this thing?!”

While Du Wei was yelling, he was also busy tying up Beinlich and Dadaneier at the same time. To lessen their speed, he even took out his knife and did his best to stab the thighs of each mercenary in order to slow them down! Although it would be painful for them to have their legs injured, but it is still better than losing their life in the ice hole!

“Think quickly! Semel! Think of the *** way quickly!!” Du Wei pushed another mercenary down to the ground. Du Wei was panting now. He used the dagger to stab the leg of the mercenary. His hands were bloody and he rubbed his face a bit.

Semel looked at Du Wei with confusion, but when she saw the bloody hands on Du Wei, she began to anxiously call out….

Inside the beautiful eyes of Semel, there was a sudden flash of change! Then the panic and pain felt by this lady suddenly disappeared, only to be replaced by nothing but emptiness!

With her bare feet, this beautiful lady slowly walked towards the lake. With her red gown still fluttering under the wind, she lifted her hands behind Du Wei….

Then a sharp melodic voice came from Semel!

Similar to an array, the sound pierced straight into Du Wei’s mind! Although the sound is so beautiful, it was causing the listener to suffer from an immense headache like they were being stabbed on the forehead!

If anything, it was like having his bone marrow stabbed with a knife….. No, wait. The more accurate term should be soul piercingly painful!

Semel kept singing despite his cries for help. It seemed that there were many difficult and strange words and symbols within the sound! Du Wei was very sure that the sound was a magic spell!

Thanks to her melodic voice, the noise caused by Semel overrode the calling of the ghost; therefore, stopping the mercenaries in their track! Shocked by having the spell so suddenly broken, the mercenaries all fell down one by one without resistance.

It was like they had woken up from a nightmare. After everybody fell down, immense cries of help echoed the area! Semel’s voice shadowed everybody’s ears and minds, even their souls! Everybody was trying their best to instinctively cover their ears, but the terrible pain could not be suppressed!

Thankfully, everyone here regained control of their mind due to the pain they were suffering at the hands of Semel!

Semel’s voice was getting louder and louder! The song was becoming sharper suddenly! That pitch was fluctuating and became sharper and higher… it felt like it was pushed toward the point of the wave, and went down repeatedly!

Du Wei already felt that the sound vibration would split his brain! He protected his head tightly. He shouted, “Semel! Stop it! Stop!”

Seemingly unable to hear any of his words, Semel continued to walk on the ice sheet! Her body was light and she kept making the sound wave as she kept going…

The ghost on the ice suddenly screamed creepily. It made an erotic sound and escaped beneath the ice!

“Humph, want to escape!” Semel sneered and that horrible sound wave finally stopped!

Du Wei was startled! When Semel sneered, the voice was still hers…but the tone was…!

It was indifferent. Prideful yet cold, but more importantly, it was filled with disgust!  It was not the same as the magical creature that always followed Du Wei around!

Semel floated on the air! She lifted her slim fingers up and her silver long hair cascaded like a waterfall. Within the freezing windy, the red gown was floating around. Then several currents started to swirl!

Semel’s fingertip quickly formed a kind light spot. That light spot then became a small light ball. The sparkle of the light ball was flashing!

“Humble and ugly magic monster…” Semel who was floating in the sky with arrogance and indifference spoke, “How dare you show your poor spiritual magic in front of me, Semel.”

Semel laughed even colder than before. She just pointed her finger slightly; there was a flash coming out from that light ball……

Snip!

There was a creepy sound coming out from the ice layer; then a huge crack extended! Far away from Du Wei, a faint roar immediately came out from the ice, and it separated towards both sides!

Underneath the ice, the lake water was churning…Soon, there were several mercenaries coming out from the lake!

That distant ghost screamed miserably. Semel then moved her finger a bit; there was an aura enveloping that ghost!

It was like an invisible hand, grabbing the ghost. The body was torn away from the ice surface!

That ghost was struggling in the air, but it could not make any complete sound. The miserable scream continuously came. It appeared to be begging for something.

“ Oh…Beg for mercy?” Semel sneered. She looked down on her opponent and whispered, “You use your dirty voice to take away other’s soul with such a dirty method? Oh…let me see what your dirty face looks like…your camouflage is too ugly!”

Her slim hands pulled slightly on the air!

Du Wei was shocked to see that the body of the ghost was split in two by an invisible force!

The body was split into two and dropped into the water, disappearing very quickly. There was a small thing left in the air!

That thing looked like meat covered with sticky mucus. The beige body was just like an octopus without tentacles. There was a little crack; it seems that was its mouth. The bottom part was like the tail fin of the fish. It kept struggling……

“Oh, that’s really a ‘Magic Lake Monster’, you’re such an ugly creature. Still not dead yet?” Semel was smiling callously. Then she stretched out a fingertip, the sharp nail scratched in the air slightly……

Suddenly, that monster got one more wound! There was some green mucus coming out from the wound. Then in it screeched, its upper body and bottom body were dissolved! Semel hummed and continued to scratch with her fingers. The monster was disintegrated and fell into the water. After that, she grabbed something; a green gem flew towards her palm.

“Huh, an adult lake monster.” Semel said, “The magic nucleus is quite big.”

Semel waved her sleeves. There were many bubbles on the lake. The wave pulled the mercenaries who had just fallen into the hole, towards the shore!

Du Wei was shocked!

His mind was confused…But the one point he was sure of was: This lady in front was not Semel! He hadn’t known this lady before; she must not be the magical creature who liked swinging her pretty legs in front of him!

She…her tone…and…Shit, she knew magic! She could use magic!

The magic creature, which is an illusion, could use magic?!

She……

Suddenly, an unbelievable idea popped into Du Wei’s mind:

She……perhaps, based on the tone she spoke with and the attitude……how she looked when she was teasing the opponent. She was similar to…the real great female astrology teacher! Semel!

While Du Wei was still thinking, Semel had walked back to the ground and approached Du Wei.

This lady was looking at Du Wei who was lying on the ground. There was still some blood on his face……

Semel was standing there and looking at Du Wei. There were many stars above her head, but her eyes glistened brighter than the stars!

She kept looking at Du Wei for a long time; there was something in her eyes which was indescribably……soft!

“Dear…the trouble is solved.” Semel’s voice was so soft, like the spring breeze. The callous feeling had disappeared. “Right…Sorry, I promise you I won’t use magic again. But when I know that you are in danger, I am so worried…Zack, you know how much I love you!”

After that, the lady closed her eyes and fell down in front of Du Wei!

The first thing came up in Du Wei’s mind was: Who was the lady?

The second thing was: Who was the mentioned “Zack”?!

Wait……wait!

Du Wei jumped up suddenly!

Zack …… Zack?!!

Shit! I remembered this name! This name was on the Family Genealogy!

Zack Rowling!! The Patriarch of the Rowling Family back in older times! That was…the husband of the real female astrology teacher, Du Wei’s ancestor?!

Ok! Now, he knew who Zack was…… So that lady was……

She……Du Wei moaned, “Oh my god…she is the real Semel…she is not the clone?”
