The Hound Ring, a legendary item said to have been given by Belial to King Solomon, could summon the phantoms of two hellhounds to track a target.
Roy hadn't had a chance to use this ring before, but now it finally came in handy.
Taking the Hound Ring out of his inventory, he put it on his finger and silently pictured Ophelina's appearance in his mind.
Soon, the hellhound patterns on the ring emitted a faint green light, and then two phantom hellhounds appeared in front of Roy.
These phantom hellhounds were only visible to Roy; no one else could see or touch them. As they tracked their target, they also left behind a green trail, which only Roy could see as well.
When Roy saw that the green trail actually led towards the back of the hotel, rather than towards the main entrance, he couldn't help but be surprised.
This Ophelina was truly cunning and had pulled an unexpected move, not taking the most direct route through the front door but instead going around to the back.
If it weren't for the hellhounds, Roy might have really lost her.
"Sir, this is the hotel's office area. Guests are not allowed to enter!"
Roy had just started to head towards the back when a staff member stopped him. Roy immediately pulled out his FEA badge – this was exactly the kind of situation it was for.
"FEA investigation! Anything you need to discuss can be addressed with my colleagues later. I'm currently tracking a dangerous criminal!"
With that, Roy pushed past the staff member, who indeed didn't try to stop him again.
After all, the staff member only earned so much; stopping him once was probably enough to satisfy the boss.
Roy rushed into the office area and followed the hellhounds' trail to the back door, just in time to see it still swinging open.
"She's pretty fast!"
By the time Roy burst out of the hotel's back door, he saw a car driving away. This must have been the vehicle Ophelina had prepared in advance.
"Damn it! Bumble—bee!"
Roy shouted, and soon a yellow Chevrolet Camaro pulled up.
"Bumblebee, switch to manual control!"
Bumblebee couldn't see the hellhounds' trail, so Roy had to drive himself.
At this moment, Isabella also ran out of the hotel's back door.
"Mr. Black, take me with you!"
Roy thought for a moment and decided to bring the black-clad nun along.
Ophelina was driving a red sports car, speeding out of New York City towards the safe house where Morte was located.
Even now, Ophelina's heart was still pounding. What had happened tonight was far beyond her imagination.
First, she faintly smelled her mother on a girl, then a human with terrifying fighting power appeared, and finally, a genuine angel showed up!
As a witch who had lived since ancient times, Ophelina could naturally recognize that Isabella was a real angel.
How could this not terrify Ophelina?
If this guy knew that the angel inside Isabella was Michael, it would probably scare her so much she'd wet her pants.
"How did things turn out like this?"
Ophelina was driving, somewhat absentminded. She felt like she'd been having a particularly bad run of luck lately, with everything going wrong.
Starting from discovering the unidentified female corpse in Salem, to finding Morte to predict the corpse's location and arousing suspicion, and then having her identity exposed the night before last...
It was as if she had been cursed!
Well, so far, Ophelina still believed her exposure was due to Morte. She had no idea that the real reason was just the four little witches from the Apocalypse Society having a sudden whim to play a séance game.
Could it be that Marie Laveau was really cursing her?
Marie Laveau was the voodoo queen who had appeared on the "Night Owl" program before, skilled in various voodoo magic, with curses being her specialty.
And Marie Laveau happened to be one of the Supreme Witch Fiona's mortal enemies. The two had clashed many times in their youth.
It was only because it was late at night and there weren't many cars outside the city that Ophelina's driving hadn't caused any accidents.
But driving like this was still very dangerous, so when a yellow Chevrolet Camaro bumped into Ophelina's red sports car, she didn't react at all.
The red sports car lost control and crashed into a tree trunk by the side of the road. Ophelina got out of the car with a pale face, and then saw Roy and Isabella getting out of the yellow Chevrolet Camaro across the street.
Ophelina's pupils constricted. She had absolutely not expected Roy to find her.
"Who exactly are you?"
"The Supreme Witch really has a bad memory. My name is Roy Black. You should have heard of it."
Roy looked at Ophelina with a grin, his face full of mockery.
Ophelina's face flickered with confusion. She had indeed heard this name, and this was the fourth time.
When she was still Fiona, Ophelina had even taken a job from Amacham to kill Roy, but just a few days later, she was the one about to be killed by him.
"So it was you!"
Ophelina glared at Roy hatefully, then cautiously glanced at the black-clad nun beside him.
She was actually more afraid of Isabella, the angel, because angels had many unreasonable abilities that could completely counter witches like her.
On the other hand, Roy had so far only shown himself to be a warrior with surprisingly good physical attributes. Witches had many ways to deal with warriors.
"Ophelina, I advise you to surrender obediently to avoid suffering!"
Roy cracked his knuckles and slowly began to walk towards Ophelina.
Ophelina had already revealed her name in front of the little witches, so she wasn't surprised that Roy could directly say her name.
Ophelina's expression changed, and she immediately released the purple flames she had used before, creating a sea of purple fire that separated her and Roy.
Roy frowned slightly, touched the purple flames, and then discovered that they didn't have much heat but would burn his spirit.
To be honest, Roy wasn't really afraid of flames that burned the body. After all, his current physique attribute was already 59 points. Pain was just pain.
But spiritual damage was hard to say. Even though Roy's current mental attribute wasn't low, he didn't want to take the risk.
"Mr. Black, do you need my help?"
Isabella behind him seemed to see Roy's difficulty and offered to help.
"No, I can handle this myself."
Roy gritted his teeth and decided to just charge forward. The worst that could happen was he'd need to rest for a few days afterward.
At this moment, Ophelina suddenly spoke.
"Mr. Roy Black, I admit I underestimated your abilities! How about we just let this go? I can give up attacking those girls and completely withdraw from the Witch Coven, as long as you let me go!"
Ophelina was ready to admit defeat. After all, her life was more important than her pride.
But how could Roy let Ophelina go? This person's ability to parasitize any female human was truly insidious and hard to guard against. Roy couldn't just cast a magic circle to identify the soul of every woman he met, could he?
Moreover, Roy had already promised Lilith that he would deal with her daughter. He couldn't go back on his word.
Speaking of which, Roy was now technically Ophelina's stepfather, but unfortunately, she didn't know about his relationship with Lilith. Otherwise, there might have been some fun to watch.
"Sorry! I work for the FEA!"
Roy didn't hesitate to draw some aggro towards the Federal Emergency Agency, then leaped towards Ophelina.
Ophelina gritted her teeth, ready to fight Roy. She manipulated the purple flames around her, transforming them into a giant fire dragon that tried to devour Roy.
To be honest, the power of this purple fire dragon had a bit of a resemblance to a certain old wizard's ultimate move, the Fire God's Path.
(Fire God's Path)
Although it was the poor man's version.
Just looking at the scene was quite intimidating. Roy couldn't help but transform into his demon form and crash into the purple fire dragon.
Instantly, Roy's spirit suffered a strong burning sensation. The intensity of this torment was a severe pain he had never experienced before.
This was the first time Roy had consciously felt this level of spiritual damage, and it was indeed more terrifying than physical damage.
Fortunately, his 53 points of willpower still played a role, allowing Roy to successfully withstand the spiritual damage and use his transformed strength attribute of 72 points to shatter the purple fire dragon with a single punch.
The flames dissipated into the sky. Ophelina tried to teleport away, but Roy had been watching her and directly unleashed his Fear Domain, interrupting her spellcasting. Then he grabbed her.
"I've got you!"
Coming back to her senses, Ophelina looked at Roy in his demon form, then at Isabella in the distance, and showed a look as if she had seen a ghost.
"You're actually a demon!"
Even if Roy had transformed into an angel, Ophelina wouldn't have been this surprised. But he was a demon, and the angel in the distance hadn't reacted at all.
This was as unbelievable as a cat and mouse becoming friends... well, that analogy might not be quite right, after all, the story of a cat and mouse becoming friends is often shown on TV, and even the child-like intelligence of Elrohir knows it.
"There will be even more surprising things to come! Just come with me obediently!"
Roy was referring to Ophelina soon seeing the soul of her mother, but that wasn't what she thought.
Ophelina instantly recalled all the cruel punishments she knew, and fear began to fill her heart.
"No! You won't take me away!"
As she spoke, Ophelina's eyes suddenly turned pink.
"What are you trying to do!"
Roy was about to unleash his Fear Domain again to interrupt Ophelina's spellcasting when he suddenly felt a headache. Due to the spiritual damage he had just suffered, he actually failed to use his ability!
This probability was no less than Roy winning the lottery jackpot with a single ticket. It was simply outrageously absurd!
And Roy just happened to have the Reaper's Gaze, which could infinitely magnify certain probabilities.
What seemed like an extremely small probability would become 100% when the Reaper's Gaze was triggered.
"What the f—!"
Roy had just finished cursing when he felt his mind go dizzy. A certain desire sprouted in his heart, and his hand involuntarily loosened its grip.
The magic that Ophelina released was actually somewhat similar to Roy's Desire Domain.
After all, Roy's Shadow of Desire ability itself was obtained from Lilith's Treasure Chest of Conquest. The ability to control desire was originally one of Lilith's powers.
As Lilith's daughter, Ophelina naturally also possessed Lilith's magic.
However, perhaps because Roy also possessed the Desire Domain, the ability Ophelina used didn't have a very good effect on Roy. He returned to normal in just a few seconds.
And at this time, Ophelina had only just teleported a short distance away.
This made Roy very angry. He felt like he had been tricked.
"Still trying to run?"
Ophelina turned her head and saw that Roy had actually broken free from her trump card magic so quickly. Her expression was quite surprised.
But soon, Ophelina looked behind Roy, and the expression on her face changed from surprise to horror.
Roy also felt that something was wrong, because why would it suddenly become as bright as the sunrise behind him in the middle of the night?
He turned his head and saw Isabella with twelve wings sprouting from her back, her whole body emitting a dazzling white light, floating in the air like a sun.
What was going on?
Sure enough, there was a reason why the Reaper's Gaze had suddenly caused Roy's ability to fail. The main event was actually on Isabella's side.
What happened between Roy and Isabella that night was already a serious mental flaw, even a kind of inner demon, for Michael within Isabella.
Just now, Ophelina's indiscriminate release of desire magic successfully activated the memory that Michael most wanted to forget.
If Michael were to go back to that night, do you think she would want to kill Roy to make up for the mistake she made?
Michael had definitely thought about it. This was probably the inner demon of the Judgment Angel.
Inner demons are very terrifying for pure angels. Lucifer was cast into hell by God because he couldn't overcome his inner demon.
Now, Michael was temporarily controlled by this inner demon.
"Roy Black! Prepare to die!"
Michael's current state should be her strongest form in the human world. An angelic halo hovered above her head, six pairs of wings of light spread out from her back, and the long whip she often used had transformed into a long sword burning with holy flames.
Her aura was like a celestial being descending to earth, making people (dare not look directly).
"F—!"
Roy cursed. He couldn't worry about the escaping Ophelina anymore. He had to get through Michael first.
When Ophelina saw this scene, she suddenly felt a sense of escaping from a desperate situation. She quickly sped up her escape, fearing that the angel would target her after killing Roy.
A twelve-winged angel was an Archangel, and there were only four such beings in all of Heaven.
An angel of this level was definitely not something a witch like Ophelina could contend with, so running was the only option.
As for what would happen to Roy, the demon, Ophelina couldn't care less.
Soon, Ophelina rushed out of the forest and arrived at a logging yard. She saw a pickup truck parked there, and the keys were even in the ignition.
"This is just too lucky!"
