Chapter 524: Demon Murmurs

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

When she fell into the Void, although Auriel had broken free from Roy’s Frostmourne, she didn’t get far from him. But because they were in the Void, they were both blind and didn’t have any perception, so they didn’t know that the other party was actually nearby.

Roy thought that Auriel had been separated by the Void, and Auriel thought that she had escaped from the terrifying demon king.

It was not until he completed his self-evolution and could see in the Void with the help of the newly born Eye of the Void that he discovered her.

Compared to Roy, this cheater, Auriel was not so lucky. Her current situation was very bad.

Originally, in the eyes of the Archangel of Hope, the world was colorful, dazzling, beautiful, and full of the light of harmony and hope. Auriel had long been used to this perception. But after she fell into the Void, all hope and beauty disappeared.

She couldn’t see any light, hear any sound, or feel the wind. This stark contrast suddenly appeared, causing her to panic like never before.

Angels also had emotions. Although their emotions were mostly positive and energetic, this didn’t mean that they didn’t have negative emotions. They would also feel panic, fear, anger, and anxiety.

Facing the strange environment of the Void, she subconsciously activated her holy light shield to cover her entire body to prevent unknown damage.

But then she discovered that the holy light shield was not shining, or rather, she could not see the light of the shield. She could only feel the holy light power on the shield rapidly escaping and dissipating.

Of course, Auriel had heard of the Void, but she had never truly come into contact with it. In her understanding, the Void was endless darkness with danger lurking everywhere. This understanding made her not dare to be careless at all. So even though she found that her power was dissipating, she was doing her best to maintain the shield.

If the dissipation of pure magic power in the Void was considered slow, then the dissipation speed of elemental spells transformed from magic power was more than ten times faster. By the time she found that her holy light couldn’t be replenished in the Void and finally calmed down, it was already a little late. At least half of her magic power had transformed into holy light and dissipated for nothing.

When she calmed down and canceled the holy light shield, she found that the Void was still corroding her. As an Archangel, her body had already completely transformed into holy light. But in the Void, the holy light in her body kept dissipating.

Then she found an even bigger problem. Her abdomen that Osiris’s demon sword had stabbed wasn’t healing. A very powerful curse power was stopping the elementalization of her body, leaving a hole in her abdomen.

“Oh no…!” Auriel immediately realized the seriousness of this matter. Normally, no matter how powerful the curse was, she could resolve it through holy light. But now, in the Void environment, her holy light couldn’t be replenished at all, meaning that her strength was limited.

Therefore, Auriel was now facing a choice. Should she gather her strength to eliminate this curse or leave it alone first?

If she chose to eliminate the curse, it meant that she would be able to last less in the Void. If she chose to let it be for now, she could last longer in the Void, but the curse would cause more damage to her.

Auriel was not indecisive. After thinking about it for a while, she chose to ignore the curse for now.

She firmly believed that Imperius, Tyrael, and Itherael were thinking of ways to bring her back from the Void. As long as she could return to the High

Heavens, there would always be a way to remove the curse from Demon King

Osiris’s sword. On the contrary, if she couldn’t last long in the Void, in case Void power corroded her severely, even if she returned to the High Heavens, she would probably bring immense trouble to the material world.

The corrosion of Void power seemed to cause corruption. Auriel had more or less heard of this. In her opinion, the corruption of the Void was much more serious than the corruption of dark power…

Auriel curled up on the spot, wrapping her light wings around her body, and waited motionlessly. She didn’t know how long she could last nor how long it would take the other Archangels to bring her back. But as long as there was a glimmer of hope, Auriel wouldn’t give up.

Hope was her authority, and she would always wait for the moment when a

miracle came…

When Roy saw her curled up, he naturally knew what Auriel was doing.

To be honest, although Roy had pulled Auriel into the Void at the last moment of his exile, he actually didn’t have any hatred for her. At the time, he only had the thought of dragging someone down with him and randomly chose a lucky opponent. Putting aside the natural hostility between angels and demons, he quite admired her. After all, he had even sent a warrior like Imperius flying. A support like her could still bravely face him and restrain him. Such fighting will was worthy of admiration.

However, this was just how it was between angels and demons. Hostility didn’t need a reason. If he and Auriel changed positions, and she could move in the

Void, it would become that he could only defend and wait for reinforcements. He believed that she wouldn’t hesitate to deal with him.

Therefore, since he had discovered her, he couldn’t let her go just because of his admiration. It was impossible.

Roy wasn’t very interested in the Eternal Conflict between angels and demons in this world. He didn’t want to be trapped in this world and fight this back-and-forth war against angels like Diablo and the others. But in order to end the Eternal Conflict, one side had to win. As a demon, he naturally couldn’t turn on Mephisto and the others—In that case, he would probably not be able to survive in the Abyss in the future—so he could only think of the High

Heavens.

Attacking the High Heavens was part of his plan. Now that there were only three Archangels left, he naturally couldn’t let Auriel go back and increase the obstructions for him.

Roy wanted to fly toward Auriel, but then he found that he couldn’t fly. It was useless to flap his wings. There was no air in the Void, nor was there space. Flying and flashing in the conventional sense were useless here!

He had no choice but to consume some of his stored souls to evolve his wings and add the attribute of being able to fly and move in the Void.

Now, Roy’s wings could no longer be called mist wings but should be called ‘Wings of the Void’…

The Void world seemed to have its own set of rules. After obtaining the ability to move, he came to Auriel’s side, but she didn’t notice his arrival at all. He floated beside her, and if he lowered his head slightly, he would even be able to smell the holy light on her (if scents could spread in the Void). But she didn’t notice him.

This situation made Roy feel a little amused, but he was also secretly afraid. The Void environment was so dangerous that an enemy could be so close, yet she still didn’t know anything. If he hadn’t used a cheat to obtain Void Vision and really encountered an enemy, he wouldn’t even know how he died.

Speaking of enemies, he remembered that creatures could actually be born in the Void. Every Void creature was extremely dangerous, but he didn’t know if

he would encounter them here.

As he got closer, Roy saw the wound on Auriel’s abdomen. After becoming a demon king, Frostmourne’s curse power had strengthened correspondingly, so it was effective against an Archangel like Auriel. But she didn’t choose to treat this wound, allowing him to understand her thoughts immediately.

He knew that she was prioritizing resisting Void corrosion, but she didn’t seem to realize that curse power was also a type of dark power in the material world. In other words, the curse power attached to her wound was actually dissipating from the corrosion of the Void. Although it was relatively slow, it would always disappear completely.

As long as time passed, this curse would heal without any medicine. It could be said that Auriel had made a mistake.

However, this would only happen without external interference… And Roy was beside her now!

He knew that Auriel did not have any perception of the outside world, so he boldly stretched out his fingertip and shot a ball of Chaos energy from afar at her wound. This way, with the isolation of Chaos power, the dissipation of the curse immediately stopped.

When Roy created Frostmourne, he had created it according to the abilities of Frostmourne in his memory. So those who were affected by this corruption curse would continuously hear murmurs coming from their souls during the duration of the curse. These murmurs were generally echoes in the depths of their subconscious, constantly magnifying the dark side in their hearts and increasing their negative emotions, eventually leading to the corruption and depravation of those affected.

Auriel was an Archangel, and Roy wasn’t sure how effective this corruption curse was on her, but he still decided to continue and slightly modified the words in the murmurs.

Auriel was resisting the corrosion of the Void while diverting her attention to resist the influence of the curse. But suddenly, the murmuring and whispering voice echoing in her mind became much clearer.

“Archangel Auriel, what are you waiting for? Are you waiting for your brothers to save you?”

“Give up. This is the Void, a world that angels haven’t explored. They won’t be able to find you!”

“You are in the depths of the Void, the reverse side of the material world. Here, the power of the Void is everywhere, but your power can’t be replenished at all!”

“The Void will slowly corrode you bit by bit and eventually devour you. The holy light power you’re so proud of can no longer protect you.”

“Your holy light will eventually extinguish, and your body will dissipate. Your soul won’t be able to return to the High Heavens. It will either completely disappear or be seized by the Void to create an ugly Void creature.”

“No one can save you. The hope you persevere in is empty, and miracles won’t happen. As your strength fades away bit by bit, you will sink bit by bit.” “If you want to escape this sea of bitterness, then say the name Osiris. Only he can save you. Only he…’

These words were so clear that they kept echoing in Auriel’s mind over and over again. Although she knew that this was the effect of the curse, she couldn’t block the murmurs. She could only try her best to empty her mind to reduce this interference.

Roy was not in a hurry. His curse was a mark on Auriel and also a set of coordinates. The seed had been planted, and he only needed to wait for harvest time to come…

Roy left.. He came gently, walked gently, and waved his sleeve, leaving only a

recorder beside Auriel…
