Chapter 302 Escape

Gloria and Misai went all the way to the backstage of the stage. The closer they got to the stage, the clearer Horolia could hear the music playing on the stage.

"These voices are..."

The moment Misai heard the accompaniment sounding on the stage, he even slowed down his walking pace by several steps.

This female knight didn't have many opportunities to appreciate music in her life. Before the Chaos Demon appeared, music was still a 'luxury' that could only be enjoyed by the upper class in this world.

The songs that the Messiah heard were limited to the hymns sung in the holy city.

Even this time, the song that Horolia sang on stage also belonged to the same style of 'song', melodious and peaceful.

Mi Sai didn't pay much attention to the songs of other contestants, but the accompaniment style sounded on the stage at this time, Mi Sai had never heard of before.

This is not a symphony in any opera...

"I... heard some instruments I've never seen before, brand new instruments..."

Gloria stopped in her tracks. Instead of continuing to the rest area behind the stage, she walked in the direction of the accompanying bands.

"My Lady...it's dangerous there."

Misai wanted to stop Gloria's reckless behavior, and her 'third eye' reminded her never to get close there.

Although Misai couldn't know what was going on behind the scenes in the theater, she could be sure that there was a very terrifying existence.

But when Messi was about to stop Gloria from running around, her 'third eye' once again vaguely noticed something.

Following his own perception, Mi Sai looked towards the back of the stage, where the contestants gathered, and Mi Sai saw a familiar figure among a group of contestants.

It was an old man with graying hair, but his body was still straight, Krog Moral... the head of the Third Legion of the Crusaders!

He is also one of the oldest legion commanders in the Crusaders.

For this legion leader, Messi didn't understand much about him. According to Gloria's description, he was a "loyal supporter of the Pope".

"Come with me."

Hororia didn't wait for Misai to say hello to the legion commander, she directly grabbed Misai's clothes corner with her hand, and forced the female knight to walk to the depths behind the stage.

"My lord, his mission should be to protect your safety just like the vulture, but I didn't see the commander of Kroger's army all day yesterday."

Messi noticed the abnormality of Gloria, but under the order of the saint, he had to bend down his body and follow Gloria all the way to another direction.

"Protection? It should be said to be surveillance. He was sent by the Pope... So you should understand, Knight Messiah."

Gloria lowered her voice, led Misai quickly away from the crowd of contestants, and ran towards the back of the stage where the accompanying orchestra was.

"But... Lady Saint, if you want to avoid him, you shouldn't..."

Misai wanted to remind Gloria that there was a terrifying... monster at the end of the direction she was running. This female knight could only use monsters to describe the owner of that breath.

She didn't understand why this kind of existence existed in human theaters, but as long as she remembered that the owner of this theater was a Chaos Demon, everything could be explained.

"Run, Messiah!"

Gloria interrupted Mi Sai's words, took Mi Sai's hand and quickly ran towards the back of the stage.

The leader of the Kroger Army, who was looking for something among the contestants in the distance, finally found Herolia and Misai.

When Misai was dragged by the Holy Maiden Herolia and ran into a dark room... Misai also noticed that there were other figures at the side of the commander of the Kroger army.

The door...was closed, and when Messey adjusted to the dim light in the room, he realized that there was another theater...closer to the theater of "Singer of the World".

While her 'third eye' reminded her to leave here as soon as possible, she also felt a powerful magic circle inside the theater.

The function of the magic circle... probably is to shield a certain terrifying existence inside.

The sound of music that sounded strange to Misai was reverberating inside the theater. Misai looked towards the central stage of the theater and found that there was an entire orchestra playing on it.

And... the members of the orchestra are all undead.

Some of them are skeletons with only bones left. These skeletons wear straight dresses and join in the performance with musical instruments in their hands... others are ghosts with translucent bodies.

When the contestants of the singers of the world sang, their accompaniments were all played by these undead!

Even... when I was singing, the melodious music was also made by those undead!

Knowing the truth, Mi Sai felt an awkward feeling in her heart, but before this awkward feeling appeared, she felt that someone was holding her heart.

"You have a smell that I hate..."

A voice quietly rang in Mi Sai's ears. Mi Sai stared at the figure commanding the entire orchestra above the stage, and disappeared at some point.

Black mist gathered in front of her, and then turned into an undead with crimson soul fire burning in his eye sockets.

"The smell of those believers."

There was a harsh sound in the throat of the undead that made people want to cover their ears.

The moment Messai met its gaze, it already realized that this undead was very dangerous!

Messi immediately stood in front of the Holy Maiden Herolia, and drew out a dagger from her waist, ready to fight.

"You interrupted my performance."

The undead stretched out his fingers that had turned into dry bones and gently held the dagger in Misai's hand. The dagger seemed to lose its life and suddenly began to wither, and finally turned into useless dust and dissipated in the air.

At the same time, Mi Sai, who was staring at the pupil of the undead, suddenly found that her body could not move at all, fear gathered in her heart, and Mi Sai relied on her willpower to resist the inner fear.

But he lost control over his own body.

"As a punishment, maybe I can make you...strawberry jam?" The undead said a word that sounded cute in a harsh voice.

It is a pity that there is no smile on Mi Sai's face at this time, and her back is completely soaked in cold sweat.

The breath of death enveloped her, and just as Misai was about to mobilize the power of the holy light in her body to fight to the death, another familiar voice suddenly sounded behind her.

"Skeleton Lord, don't bully this poor female knight again."

Misai turned her head to the side, looked at the Chaos Demon walking by her side, and patted her on the shoulder by the way.

At this moment, Misai's heavy body suddenly became lighter, and the fear in her heart disappeared without a trace. Only her soaked underwear could prove that everything just now was not an illusion.

"Two contestants, it is my honor to introduce to you, this is the behind-the-scenes conductor of the competition's music accompaniment, and a part-time soundtrack director...you can call her Skeletal Lord."

Joshua introduced the Lich Lord next to him, and then looked at the female knight who had rushed in here and the calm-looking saint Herolia.

"Hello." Gloria saluted the Lich Lord very calmly.

"I should have written at the door that this theater is a forbidden area, Miss Gloria, can you give me a reason to break in here?" Joshua asked.

"Hmm..." Gloria thought for a moment and then said frankly, "We have encountered a little trouble."
