Chapter 10, The Demon of Hong Kong Comics
In his place stood a strikingly bald man, with a visage even more brutish than that of the butcher Zhang from next door, and a body adorned with formidable muscles. As he turned, Su Mo could even feel the fibers of his tailcoat stretching under the strain.
Although this gift may appear somewhat strange, the noble demeanor it conveys is indeed captivating
It seems there is no awkwardness. Seeing Lady Lise's brief moment of distraction, Su Mo felt quite satisfied. He was once a teacher at the Royal Academy of Etiquette in England, and the culture of this world is quite similar to that of England. With a little understanding, he could perfectly integrate into this world.
Then take good care of your injuries, I will go out to scout for a while. Su Mo walked over to Madam Lisi, performed a flawless gesture of etiquette, and said, "This beautiful lady, would you be willing to accompany me?"
I can give you time, and I can also allow you to act independently, but you must help me take revenge! Otherwise, it is impossible for me to entrust my soul to you". Trelan fixed his gaze on Su Mo, speaking each word deliberately.
"Do not rush, take your time, this woman still has her uses," Su Mo said calmly
A wicked smile appeared at the corner of Su Mo's mouth, "From now on, please refer to me as—Sebastian Jamode, my young master"
Because apart from this, this guy has nothing else
Passing through a wooden door, the two individuals entered a room where several corpses lay, blood slowly flowing over the stone slab
The dining knife? Upon seeing the dining knife on the forehead of the corpse, Su Mo was momentarily taken aback
Oh, how much do you know about summoning demons?" Su Mo continued to ask
He is completely unfamiliar with this island, and fighting away from home, having an insider who has already been scared silly will undoubtedly make the operation much easier
That person showed no reaction at all, continuing to charge forward while shouting loudly, with a face full of terror, heading straight towards the two individuals, seemingly intending to knock them aside directly
I can wait, " said Trandon in a low voice
"Yes, it is." Su Mo casually replied, "So, were you originally planning for me to be your butler?"
Merely meeting Su Mo's emotionless and cold gaze, Lady Lisi suddenly came to a realization: no matter how perfect the man's actions were, or how his smile made one feel as if they were basking in spring breezes, it could not change the fact that he was a demon
Moreover, there is also a flintlock pistol from hell left for Trandon, and Lady Lilith feels that she cannot find even the slightest opportunity
"By the way, who are the people at the top of the tower?" Su Mo continued to ask
"Do not look at me, it has nothing to do with me." Su Mo had an innocent expression. If nothing unexpected happens, such a chaotic scene will also occur later, and the creator of it is Su Mo
The chaos above is entirely unrelated to him
Is it a flintlock from hell
Lady Lise naturally did not dare to be negligent and gritted her teeth to keep up
"What the hell, who are you?" Su Mo was taken aback and blurted out.
What is this?" Terandon was taken aback.
There was no need for Su Mo and the others to ponder deeply about what had happened. After climbing a few steps up the spiraling staircase, they saw a person rushing down towards them in a state of utter panic
"What happened?" Lady Lisi was taken aback for a moment and couldn't help but look at Su Mo. In her view, the only one capable of causing chaos was the demon standing before her.
Sebastian Jamod, a peculiar name. Tran Dong murmured softly, his face showing no signs of joy
Madam Lise's cheeks trembled incessantly, making it almost impossible for her to take a step: "Could it be another demon?"
The sharp blade pierced into the wall behind, its tip trembling, exuding a cold aura like a newly polished dinner knife
"You dodged my knife, kid. You have the potential to become strong! You are different from that group of losers." The bald man displayed an approving expression towards Su Mo.
Regardless, she could not conceive that a human could accomplish such a feat. Since a demon had already appeared before her, the emergence of a second one did not seem entirely impossible.
"Did you kill that woman?" Terandon suddenly sat up.
"The flintlock from hell, I believe that with the young master's intelligence, he will quickly learn how to use this thing." Su Mo led Lady Lisi out of the room
As they moved upwards, a series of hurried footsteps and shouts reached the ears of Su Mo and Madam Lisi
This is far from the black butler that Su Mo envisioned, but rather a burly man in the style of Hong Kong comics
Lady Lise widened her eyes, seemingly unable to comprehend why the demon, who had just exuded boundless malice, had suddenly transformed into a gentleman
Is this the case, that Li Gui wants to meet Li Kui? The rapid unfolding is a bit overwhelming" Su Mo said with a smile, yet his expression showed no signs of panic; instead, he continued to walk towards the top of the tower with great interest
Indeed, I will leave this island, return to the Empire to inherit the Wobbs family, and then slowly search for the murderer. " Trandon nodded. He was not truly an immature youth; being able to summon demons in such an environment was not the act of an ordinary person.
Is this the underground? Su Mo asked as he stepped out of the room. Outside was a narrow corridor, at the end of which was a spiral staircase leading upwards
"Not much, I only know that this time it seems a new method has been found..." Mrs. Liss did not continue, it was evident that this new method had succeeded, and it had succeeded remarkably, to the extent that Trandon alone successfully summoned the demon
What level of strength is required to achieve this extent
It should be fine. Su Mo's response left Telandong feeling uneasy, but it will take some time
"You actually avoided it?" The owner of that voice revealed a hint of surprise in his tone and turned to look at Su Mo
"Stop! What has happened?" Mrs. Lisle immediately inquired.
Allowing her thoughts to drift, Su Mo walked to the bedside and lifted the quilt
This is the Tower of Sacrifice, half above ground and half below. Lady Lise immediately said, "Young Master Trandon is the most important sacrificial figure, so he is specially imprisoned at the bottom of the tower to prevent any unforeseen incidents"
The person in charge of the island, Joyce. All the rituals for summoning demons are conducted by him, Lady Lilith said
Without mentioning the despairing feelings of Lady Lise on this side, Su Mo has already rushed into the room at the very top of this not particularly tall tower.
By the way, young master, are you interested in changing your name to Charles? How does the name Charles Wobbs sound? Su Mo continued to indulge in his wicked sense of humor
Su Mo said without the slightest regret: "What a pity, if the young master would be willing to change his name, it would be quite interesting"
Is there any difference between this and Black Butler ... ... " Su Mo appeared to be contemplating life, wearing a serious expression, but internally he was actually mocking, "With such a similar script, could it be that the mastermind behind it is the British royal family? And there is also an androgynous angel by their side, wait, this seems to be an original from the TV series."
"Oh, are there still miscellaneous fish?" As Su Mo stepped into the room, a voice rang in his ears, and at the same time, a cold light flashed before his eyes
As for what to do to the master Tlandon in a self-reflective manner, it is entirely outside of Lady Liss's considerations. The black, cold, and lifeless behemoth in the room might very well be the pet of a demon
As one continues along the path, the number of corpses increases, all of which have had their lives ended by a bright dining knife, and the screams emanating from above gradually diminish, returning to a state of tranquility
"No." Trelandon firmly refused; as a nobleman, how could he change his name
It seems that outside, or rather above, has fallen into a state of chaos
After hesitating for a moment, Mrs. Lis bit her teeth and reluctantly followed. This is an isolated island, where two ships arrive every two months to deliver new supplies and offerings
The man before me, dressed in a sleek black tailcoat and wearing white gloves, stood like a green pine, exuding an air of distinction—yet it was merely an air of distinction.
The term "young master" is clearly meant to be a respectful title, yet when uttered from the mouth of this demon before me, coupled with such a malicious smile, it exudes an unmistakable air of mockery.
I can't believe it, even the speaking style has become like a Hong Kong comic, which dimension of reality are you a demon from
"Let's hurry, it seems there is a good show to watch." Su Mo smiled and quickened his pace
"Oh, so clever. Would you be interested in following my young master?" Su Mo stopped in his tracks and turned to say with a smile
Madam Lisi was also momentarily lost in thought; indeed, the bright dinner knife was quite sharp, but it was not sharp enough to pierce a person's skull and take another's life.
"Alright, take me away from this island, can you do that?" Trandon said somewhat irritably
Su Mo slightly tilted her body, raised her foot, and directly kicked the man who rushed towards her aside. Naturally, there were no handrails on the spiraling staircase. The man lost his balance and fell straight to the bottom of the tower, his terrified scream abruptly cut off
Let it be just a butler
Mrs. Lis opened her mouth but did not respond
No black hair, red eyes, handsome appearance
However, that is a matter for later; at present, Su Mo has not even encountered the third person in this world.
Holding the composed Mrs. Liss tightly, Su Mo suddenly turned around at the door, took out a black object from his bosom, and threw it beside Terandon
The ship just departed yesterday, and the next docking will be in two months. Even if one escapes now, there is no escaping the two months of death that follow.
Is that so? Then I will take my leave first. This fellow cannot be allowed to be killed, as I still have use for him. With that, Su Mo suddenly quickened his pace and soon disappeared from Madam Liss's sight
Trandon touched the cold gun barrel and whispered a phrase
