Walter stumbled backwards and dropped the glass of wine in his hands.
"Demon! Demon!" Walter shouted.
He quickly grabbed his necklace and held it high. The silver string had a large pendant with a red jewel in the middle.
"Get the hell away from !"
The red gem blasted out a wave of energy. It washed over Evelynn but she was unhard.
Walter widened his eyes. "How?!"
"Anti-Demonic Energy? I heard Master spoke about sothing similar but never thought I would see it for real." Evelynn stood up.
Her two bird wings spread wide. Evelynn opened her soft lips and sang. Invisible strings wrapped around Walter and pulled him closer figuratively.
In his eyes, the Siren in front beca the most beautiful woman he had ever seen. His heart pumped and his legs trembled. Walter walked closer to Evelynn with his mouth wide open.
He drooled unconsciously.
"My queen. You are so beautiful." Hearts appeared in Walter's eyes. He was fully chard by her spell.
Evelynn grabbed Walter's neck and lifted him high. He coughed but the lust in his eyes did nor waver.
"Take , queen. I love you!" Walter tried to take through the choke.
Evelynn squeezed her hands tighter. She also saw the tape. She knew what they did to her after her death. Maybe, they were even the culprits that killed her. Rage flooded inside her. If she was still a Half-Wraith, she would have turned into a full wraith already. But she's a pure siren now.
Evelynn cald herseld down and lowered Walter.
"That tape of . Where did you get it?" Evelynn asked.
"I..." Suddenly, Walter dropped down to the ground and convulsed.
Mater teleported inside the room. Crow erged from the ground as shadow. They rushed at Walter to check on him.
"Death lock... If he tries to say anything relating to that secret organization, it would trigger the curse." The black cat scanned Walter's body through his Octagram Eyes.
"What should we do, Master?" Crow said.
"Easy. Let see who's trying to stop ."
The black cat penetrated into Walter's Psycho Force and isolated the curse. The curse was a small black tadpole that radiated demonic energy.
The black cat bit into it. Through the telepathic connection inside the tadpole, Mater traced the connection back to its master.
The demon was resting in its chamber when the Chaos ca at it.
Xirak opened his eyes and blocked the agressive Chaos attacking him.
"Rank-3 Chaos User? How is there a Rank-3 here?"
In front of Xirak, a Chaos Avatar materialized. This was the main power of a Warlock when reaching Rank-3 but Mater never really felt like he needed to use it.
The Avatar was that of a shadow figure with gold veins running on his body. His eyes glowed gold and his hair floating like smoke.
"What are you?" Xirak stood up. He was not afraid of a re Rank-3. He was a Rank-4.
Xirak's power might not have awakened all the ways yet and was only at Rank-3 level. But his pride didn't allow him to back off of another lowly being.
"Hmm. Your power seems degraded. You're one of those recently woken up demons, aren't you?"
"You know a lot about us, huh?" Xirak frowned.
Hellfire began to appear around him. But the shadow figure was unfazed.
"Do not cause any trouble in Valeria." The shadow figure said.
"Or what?"
An orange spear appeared in Xirak's hand as he threw it through the figure's heart.
"Or I will co for you." The shadow figure slowly disappeared.
"Arrogant bastard." Xirak flicked his hand.
The black cat opened its eyes.
"Are you alright, Master?" Evelynn said.
"I'm fine. It's just a Rank-4 Demon." Mater said. "The organization that tries to make you into a wraith was the Red Keepers."
Evelynn rubbed her chin, "Why would they want to turn into a wraith?"
"Simple. To feed those weakened demons so that they can gain back their power. An ordinary soul is not as tasty as a troubled and haunted one. They're probably trying to make as many wraiths as possible to restore the demons back to their pris."
"What should we do with him?" Crow pointed at Walter.
"Learn what you can then get rid of him." The black cat said.
Crow grabbed Walter and pierced into his mind using Terror Break. Soon he learned everything there was about the influence of the demons inside the dia industry.
Suddenly, another 'terrorist attack' erupted in Aeliz City. Previously, the Von Schattenbergs was attacked. Now, many studios and dia companies were struck without even knew what had happened.
The culprit of it all, the one that ordered for the mummification of Evelynn, was captured.
"Do you know who I am?! I am Harry Wysting! Not even demon dares to capture ."
Harry was dragged to the Underpark. That place now looked like a proper cult structure now with beautiful stone wall and patterns everywhere.
The Psychics kicked Harry's knees and forced him on the ground.
In front of him, Evelynn stood there silently. She titled her head, her blue eyes glimred in the Underpark.
"Harry... No wonder my corpse was stolen." Evelynn said.
"Evenlynn?! You were a failure. But how?" Harry widened his eyes.
"I guess I am not that much of a failure, huh?" Evelynn smiled.
"Release ! Or else there will be unimaginable consequences!"
"What kind of consequences? Consequences like Xirak?"
"You?! You know him?" Harry widened his eyes.
"Your ti is over, Harry. You shouldn't have touched my corpse."
Sparrow was there. He ca over and gave Evelynn his Adventurous Lute.
"Go to town, girl!"
Evelynn grabbed the lute and bashed Harry's face with it.
With that, Evelynn had finally learned the truth behind her death. She died of an overdose. But not because of soone poisoning her. She died simply because she mixed up her dications.
But her death did allow Harry and Walter to snatch her corpse and make it into a wraith.
They weren't successful. And that allowed Evelynn to beco a Siren under Mater.
