Chapter 25 Crimson Gate
Although Lonis had mustered her courage and wanted to save Elus.
However, this black-haired “girl” was like a demon, using all sorts of seductive words to force Lonis to “fall”:
……
“Hmph, Lonis… are you sure you want to save me? Do you know what your actions represent?”
“Wuwu…?”
“If you think I’ll treat you well after you save me, you’re gravely mistaken… To repay your kindness, I’ll torment you even more, fulfilling your masochistic desire to be ravaged!”
“No… No, I can’t!”
……
“Look closely, your boobs are really round, aren’t they? I say, you guy, could it be that you’ve never touched a girl’s boobs before, so you designed it this way?”
“Mind your own business!!”
……
“Cough cough… I’m vomiting blood again. Well, take this opportunity to say your last words, will you?”
“Elus, hold on, we’re almost there.”
“I can’t anymore, heh heh… I never thought I’d die on the back of a perverted masochist, what a disgrace!”
“What kind of disgrace is that, and I’m not a masochist!”
……
……
Although they babbled some nonsense, Lonis knew that this was also a manifestation of Elus’s strength… She didn’t want to die like this either, so she spoke to calm herself.
After all, for someone who was seriously injured, once they fell into a coma, they might never wake up again.
Lonis also ran all the way, taking lifts and traversing tunnels, moving forward in the labyrinth-like underground world, and finally arrived before a crimson gate.
……
This door stood at the end of the passage, about 20 meters high.
Although it looked like no one had set foot there for a long time, the surface of the door was still as smooth and spotless as ever.
A strange energy spread around the door, and Lonis felt her heart pounding, as if a strange power was resonating.
“Elus, this is…”
“This is the Temple of the Fiery Abyss, the place I used to serve… Hmph, if you smear my blood on the doorknob, it should open.”
“Oh…”
Lonis nodded. Elus had bled a lot on the way, and now it could be used.
However, even though Lonis smeared her blood on the door, it remained sealed, and no matter how much Lonis pushed, it wouldn’t open.
Seeing this, Elus frowned:
“What’s going on… Could it be that I’ve been rejected?”
“Elus?”
“Haha, hahahaha.”
Suddenly, Elus burst into laughter… She laughed so exaggeratedly, as if she didn’t care about her wounds at all.
After the laughter came a complete desolation: as if there was nothing in the world worth being happy about, even looking out, she couldn’t find any goals in her life.
Scarlet blood kept flowing from Elus’s body, drop by drop, flowing onto the steps.
“It seems that heaven wants me to die, I’m sorry… Lonis, you should leave here now.”
“Elus, what are you talking about? You could open it before, so you can definitely open this door now!”
“The Temple of the Fiery Abyss is an ancient ruin, and outsiders can never open it… Otherwise, why do you think Cru has been waiting here for so long?”
“Huh?”
“You should have realized, Cru rebelled to help the Demon Lord obtain the power of the Fiery Abyss. But in the end, because I escaped, his plan failed… Hmph hmph, speaking of which, I’m a princess who abandoned her country and subjects?”
Elus forcefully pushed Lonis away, and then, just like that, collapsed on the ground.
At this moment, even breathing was a difficult task for her.
Blood surged out from her skin, drenching the black-haired little loli into a bloodied figure.
Looking at Elus like this, Lonis felt heartbroken, but she was not going to give up.
Because…
“Elus, what nonsense are you spouting? You could open it before, so you can definitely open this door now.”
“Hmph! Lonis, you don’t understand… The Temple of the Fiery Abyss can only be opened by an approved girl. And now I have fallen, I am no longer the innocent and ignorant Snow Country Princess I once was! Now, I have completely lost the right to control the Fiery Abyss.”
As if unwilling to be ridiculed by Lonis, Elus raised her head and shouted at Lonis with her last bit of strength.
“Ugh!”
If it were the usual Lonis, facing such a fierce Elus, she might have already tucked her tail between her legs and admitted defeat… After all, in terms of knowledge or strength, she was no match for this girl.
But,
But!
Only the will to live, she would definitely not lose to Elus.
Because she had died before, Lonis knew the pain of becoming a ghost… You would lie in a dark space, unable to do anything, unable to see anything.
Boundless darkness would engulf you with despair: and when your consciousness completely dissipated, your thoughts completely numbed, you would truly disappear from this world.
So…
“If I can’t open it, I’ll smash it open!”
“Lonis, what are you trying to do?!”
“Isn’t it just some mere broken door? Watch me smash it open with all my might!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
Lonis let out a hysterical scream, then she slammed into the crimson gate with all her might.
“Boom!”
Of course, this sound effect was made by Lonis herself—in fact, she was dizzy from hitting it, but the crimson door remained as unmoving as a wall.
“Idiot, idiot! Are you an idiot? How can a body smash open the Door of the Fiery Abyss?”
“If you can’t do it once, then do it a second time.”
“If this method worked, Cru would have entered long ago!”
Although Elus was shouting, Lonis didn’t listen at all.
Because at this moment, her mind had only one thought: crashing through the door might offer a glimmer of hope, as it was old and run-down, and perhaps it would break open.
But if she just stood there and did nothing, Elus would surely die!!!
So, Lonis summoned her strength and slammed into the door again.
And this time…
“Ah, ah ah! It hurts!”
“I told you to stop!”
“I won’t stop, pfft… Elus, if you have the ability, then stand up and stop me~”
Under the violent impact, Lonis felt like her shoulders were about to shatter… This level of impact had exceeded her ability to ‘transform pain into pleasure’, and her skin had already turned blue.
But it was precisely this pain that boosted Lonis’s spirit.
Anyway, her body was so sturdy, it wouldn’t break no matter what!
So why not keep crashing~?
Next time, she would try with her head and her whole body, without holding back~?
Lonis clenched her fists,
And slammed into the door again with all her might!
This time, she used all her strength, and beyond the crimson door, there was nothing else in her field of vision.
And it was with this impact…
The enormous door,
Was actually smashed open by Lonis!
