Watching as Ram suddenly opened her eyes, Rem exclaimed in surprise. "What happened? Elder Sister?"
Fang Li also looked towards Ram, his eyes filled with inquiry.
In such a situation, Ram only said one line. "Found the little dog."
With just one sentence, both Fang Li and Rem raised their heads.
And then Ram began to move.
"This way."
After saying that, Ram decisively headed in a direction without waiting for Fang Li and Rem.
In that manner, it was just like when Fang Li had ignored the twin sisters and passed through the barrier into the forest on his own.
Upon seeing this, Rem couldn't help but laugh.
"Indeed, Elder Sister is quite similar to Lord Fang Li."
Hearing this, Fang Li helplessly spread out his hands and, together with Rem, caught up to Ram.
"Roar..."
"Roar..."
Along the way, demon beasts, like dogs smelling blood, kept emerging from the surrounding bushes and pouncing towards the entire group.
However, this time, Fang Li didn't even need to lift a finger.
"El-Fura!"
Ram, taking the lead, suddenly unleashes a blade of wind, traveling at maximum velocity, turning it into sharp invisible blades that swept through the air and attacked ahead.
"Al-Huma!"
Behind her, Rem's body surged with a wave of cold air, causing the moisture in the air to condense into sharp ice pillars that shot out like arrows.
"Pu Chi——!"
The invisible wind blade severed the demon beast's head, splattering blood.
"Pu Chi——!"
The sharp ice pillar pierced through the demon beast's body, pinning it to the ground.
This was Rem and Ram's magic.
Ram excelled in Wind Attribute magic, using gusts as her main attack method.
Rem excelled in Fire Attribute magic, using freezing ice as her main attack method.
In addition, Rem was also skilled in close combat, while Ram, due to her horns, couldn't move for long periods and thus lost the ability for close combat.
However, neither Rem nor Ram had taken out their close combat skills.
The reason was simple.
Compared to close combat, there was truly no one here who could surpass the terrifying lethality of that Murdering Demon.
"Pu Chi——!"
In the sound of slashing, the demon beasts that survived the wind blades and ice pillars barely approached the effective attack range before being killed on the spot by a chilly blade light.
In this way, the three continuously broke through the attacking demon beasts and finally arrived at an open space.
Ram pointed to the open space and said, "That's it."
"Yes," Rem nodded as well and said, "Rem can already smell it."
Then, Fang Li raised his head and looked ahead.
There, in the vast open space, a harmless little dog was lying on a rock, seemingly basking in the sun.
Looking at the dog, Rem, as if trying to suppress all emotions, whispered softly, "That's the little dog that bit Rem before."
"Is that it?" Ram's gaze became somewhat sharp but remained calm, "Then where's the Curse User manipulating it from behind?"
"Who knows?" Fang Li smiled faintly and said, "Why don't we go ask it ourselves?"
Saying so, Fang Li actually crossed the bushes and entered the open space.
Rem and Ram looked at each other in dismay, then seemed to abandon rational thinking. One had a smile of admiration, the other a sigh of helplessness, as they followed Fang Li.
"Sha Sha..."
The entire group parted the bushes and entered the open space.
On the rock, the young demon dog, basking in the sun, twitched its cute ears slightly, finally opened its eyes, and stared at Fang Li, Rem, and Ram.
Shortly afterward, the puppy demon beast, as if stimulated, tensed its body like an ordinary puppy, baring its teeth at Fang Li and the entire group, as if trying to intimidate them.
Unfortunately, the scene of the harmless little dog baring its teeth only made people find it cute no matter how they looked at it.
So even Rem and Ram couldn't help but start to doubt.
"Is this little dog really a demon beast capable of using the Curse Technique?"
This question was not immediately answered.
Fang Li only glanced at the cute dog making a threatening posture, then suddenly spoke.
"Alright, stop hiding, come out."
With just one sentence, both Rem and Ram were slightly stunned.
Not understanding Rem and Ram, Fang Li continued to speak as if talking to himself.
"Don't think that just because I'm not speaking, I don't know you're nearby. Even if Ram's Clairvoyance didn't see you and Rem's sense of smell didn't catch you, I still know you're here."
"So, come out."
"――'Demon Beast User.'"
As soon as the words fell, the air around tightened suddenly.
Rem and Ram seemed to finally understand the situation, both falling silent, but quietly gathering their Magic Power.
Meanwhile, the little dog that had been posturing on the rock suddenly quieted down as if a switch had been flipped.
The next moment, in a corner of the open space, the bushes swayed once again.
From within emerged a person.
A child.
Looking to be around ten years old, a very young little girl.
The little girl stared fixedly at Fang Li and softly said a line.
"Do you know me?"
Hearing her question, Fang Li smiled lightly.
"Meili, an assassin, possessing the ability to break Demon Beast horns and gaining control over them as a condition, thus earning the nickname 'Demon Beast User'. Am I right?"
Fang Li's words made the girl known as Meili silent for a while. Then she raised her head to look at Fang Li and said, "So that's how it is. You're the terrifying man Elsa mentioned?"
"Ah, you brought up a nostalgic name." Fang Li asked with interest, "What's that? Has that 'Bowel Hunter' mentioned me to you?"
"Because we're from the same assassin organization." Meili surprisingly didn't hide it, speaking with an innocent tone, "Elsa told me when we came here. Regardless of the others, if we really want to achieve our goal, we must first kill you."
"Unfortunately, I've been inside the mansion the whole time, so you had to make a move on Rem instead, right?" Fang Li looked at Meili, somewhat arrogantly saying, "Don't you think you're too hasty?"
"But, in reality, I did lure you out, didn't I?" Meili tilted her head, speaking with an innocent tone, "And in this forest, I'm invincible, you know?"
As Meili's words fell, countless crimson eyes began to glow in the surrounding bushes.
