Chapter 182

"Ms. Diana, from your description, the devil you are talking about should be a kind of enchantment devil, who lives by sucking the essence of men. Most enchantment demons have powerful mind control ability. They can sneak into dreams and easily capture the essence of men through dreams."

Diana sat in a small wooden room and asked softly, "what happens to people who are sucked by demons?"

There was a soft female voice across a board from Diana: "actually, I haven't seen it. According to the description of church classics, it usually turns into a mummy, and the corpse will be wearing a strange smile. The eyes open. The eyes are the windows of human soul. Some people think that the demon not only sucks the essence of human men, but also devours the soul together."

"So Sister Maria, does a caster have the ability to control demons?"

"Ms. Diana, I can't give an exact answer to this question. Judging from the traditional experience, there are two ways to control the devil. The first is called by the caster, who controls the devil's medium of activity in the real world. In case of any accident, the devil can be repatriated to the abyss at any time. But as we all know, the devil is an evil creature, Their nature is chaotic and cruel. It's usually too late for the casters to find out that the demons have changed. Therefore, most of the casters no longer call them to serve as slaves, and they don't have the corresponding knowledge. "

"What about the second one?"

"The second is more complicated. In fact, it is difficult to find relevant records even in the historical books of the church. It is said that all demons have a real name when they were born. This name can't be read out in words and has no meaning. But when someone knows the name and the devil whose name is opposite, he will become the master of the devil, The devil summoned by the caster is subject to the caster because he does not want to be repatriated, but the devil will not have the slightest idea of resistance to the person who knows his real name. "

"What else? Is it possible for humans to live in peace with demons? "

"It's not impossible. After all, the devil also has wisdom. I can't say anything with my shallow knowledge."

"Enough. Thank you very much, Sister Maria."

"Kacha ~"

The wooden door of the confession room was pushed open, and Diana bowed to the person sitting in it to show her respect.

Shortly after Diana left, the wooden door of the confession room was pushed open one by one, and a woman in a strict black nun's dress came out. She was tall, and even a simple nun's dress could draw a graceful curve. Her silver hair was very conspicuous under the black scarf, her eyes were covered by a cross black bandage, and her delicate cheeks were exposed. She was wearing white gloves, The whole person looks solemn and mysterious, but also reveals some female charm that does not match the nun's identity.

Soon, a middle-aged male priest trotted in, sweating face full of fear: "may the Lord bless, Sister Maria, is Ms. Diana really not a devil? When she passed me just now, I could even feel the hot cross on my neck! "

The blindfolded nun nodded and said softly, "father Osborne, please don't worry. Ms. Diana herself is an ordinary person. From the reaction of the sacred vessel, we can see that there are demons in this city, which may also be related to Ms. Diana."

The priest's face broke down and he said, "God, what can I do? Cromwell chamber of commerce is the biggest benefactor of the church. God bless you!"

"Father Osborne, we just have to wait."

"But it's the first time in my life that there's a devil. It's too late when something really happens."

"Father, we can't do anything now, and as you said, we have no right to do anything to Ms. Diana."

The nun nodded and left.

The church has long lost its due position. Long ago, the church was a huge religious force that could influence the imperial power. However, in order to stabilize its position, the church put pressure on the royal family to hunt and kill the casters in the name of witch Association causing disaster. In the past century, as people know more about the casters, the rumors spread by the church have been broken, The royal family also put the responsibility of killing the casters on the church, which lost the trust of the people, resulting in great turbulence within the church and missed the best adjustment time.

This era has long been separated from the period of ignorance, the devil or witch can not be an excuse for the church to control the people, and the church can be said to have become a dispensable existence in people's eyes.

On the other hand, the church is also carrying out the obligation to destroy the devil.

······

Diana is a very independent person, even if Harvey asked her to leave it alone, how could she let go of Shirley's demonic posture with her own eyes.

Perhaps it was because of the lack of servants that the house was too spacious, and the noise of the street would not make the house too quiet. Diana liked this feeling very much, and she felt comfortable after living. After passing the studio on the second floor, Diana saw Shirley sitting in front of the drawing board, concentrating on painting. The cool wind blowing in the window lifted up her hair. At this moment, Shirley looked gentle and dignified, without the dark and strange feeling that Diana felt that night.

Diana never regarded Shirley as a servant, preferring Harvey's sister and her friends.

Thinking of what Harvey had said to her, Diana was sure that Shirley was closer to Sister Maria's second situation, and she was a little relieved. After a moment's consideration, Diana walks in with a light step and sees Shirley drawing a novel illustration of the dark age. An elite cavalry is standing on the top of the hill. Their figure overlaps with the sun, and their armor reflects the sun, making their bodies look more and more huge. Below the cavalry is a black army of millions of beasts, Diana was also amazed by the magnificent scene.

"How long does it take to draw this illustration?"

Shirley drew her shoulder a little. She was frightened by the sudden sound. She turned to see Diana and thought about it for a while. She replied, "I've spent three days on this painting. With the time of revision, it will take about a week to finish it, but not all the illustrations will take that long. This one is one that Harvey ordered to be carefully drawn, and there are a lot of details."

"Yes, I can feel it just by looking at it. It's amazing that I painted the metal texture of the armor without using color pigments." Diana looked at the illustration of the semi-finished novel and nodded. She said with an apologetic smile, "I'm sorry to disturb you."

Shirley grinned shyly. "No, it makes me happier to get Diana's praise. What's the time now?"

"About five."

Shirley stood up, blushing a little confused and said, "ah, I almost forgot to prepare dinner."

When she came back, Diana felt a lot more relaxed. She covered her lips and gave a low laugh: "I'll help you. I can't find anything more to do at home."
