Marvel: Killing Makes You Stronger

Chapter 106: Black Magic and White Magic

Opposite are all kinds of treasures, metals, and other items collected by Lilith.

However, the actual place where these items are stored is not here. Instead, they are projected here as a realistic projection in this so-called treasure house.

If someone truly harbors greed and tries to break in, it will inevitably trigger the traps left by Lilith—black magic traps specially set by the demon lord, whose power is imaginable.

All kinds of insidious curses could cause other demon lords to suffer losses.

Bi Xiao could detect them mainly because he is also an expert in this area. Kamar-Taj is not only about white magic but also has a lot of black magic. He had consulted with the Ancient One many times, and he is quite a big shot in this field.

Noticing the traps, Bi Xiao stopped and did not proceed further.

With Lilith not present, Bi Xiao did not leave immediately. Since he came to hell, he planned to sneak into other demon lords’ territories in advance to gather information. This is part of his action process. Before he slaughtered the gang, he would also sneak in to observe the geography, information, and retreat routes.

This time, while diving the hell dungeon, he did not intend to cause too much commotion. Whether it was Lilith or other demon lords, he had to kill them silently.

Otherwise, causing a stir would attract the attention and alliance of other demon lords.

Additionally, he had to consider the reaction from heaven. Losing so many demon lords in hell would inevitably provoke a response from heaven. Occupying hell, enslaving hell is the inevitable result.

Furthermore, Bi Xiao would certainly become a thorn in the side for those angels in heaven. Heaven's domineering and aggressive nature would not allow such an unstable factor like Bi Xiao to continue existing.

...

Forks Town.

Bella was riding Bi Xiao’s Ducati motorcycle back home from school today.

After parking the motorcycle, Bella opened the door with the key. Charlie was not home yet, so Bella went to her room, recalling the basic magic knowledge Bi Xiao had imparted to her.

The basic magic knowledge was imprinted in her mind, but it was akin to rote memorization. To understand its meaning, she needed to comprehend it herself.

This was the third day since Bi Xiao left, and Bella was deeply engrossed in the magical knowledge. It was completely different from what she learned in school—more magical and idealistic.

After more than an hour, it was completely dark outside. The noise of a car driving up outside woke Bella from her magical studies. She stood up from the bed and saw through the window that Charlie had arrived and parked the police car below.

In the evening, while having dinner, Charlie looked a bit grim. Bella noticed and asked directly, “Dad, what happened?”

“Is it related to the rumors?”

The rumors Bella mentioned were what she heard at school today. Students were gossiping that there had been deaths in the town, not just one, and the deaths were very peculiar, with the victims’ blood drained and looking gruesome and horrific.

This caused some panic among the students.

Bella didn’t pay much attention at first, but seeing her father, the police chief’s expression, it was clearly related to this matter.

“Rumors? Has the news reached your school?”

Charlie’s hand holding the fork paused slightly.

“You know, the town isn’t big. Many things can’t be hidden.”

“You shouldn’t concern yourself with these things. You just need to go to school and do what you should, Bella. I’ll drive you to and from school for the time being.”

Charlie didn’t want to discuss these matters with Bella.

Hearing Charlie’s words, Bella understood and didn’t ask further.

The next day, as expected, Charlie drove her to school in the police car. Bella initially didn’t like riding in the police car, but now she didn’t mind. She no longer cared about how others looked at her.

However, the bizarre deaths in the town did not stop but increased after two days. The whole town was enveloped in panic, not just among the students but everyone.

The town’s police station was also busy, with the frequent sound of police sirens.

At school, the discussion and rumors about the sudden mysterious serial murders grew more intense.

Bella continued her usual routine of attending classes, studying magic in her free time, contrasting sharply with the school’s discussions and unease. However, despite this, someone still approached her...

After class, Bella packed her books and left the classroom, heading to the cafeteria for lunch.

While walking in the corridor, Edward, who hadn’t spoken to her for a long time, approached her. “Bella, be careful lately. Some outsiders have come to town.”

After saying this, Edward left, leaving Bella slightly raising her eyebrows.

Outsiders? What does Edward know?

Moreover, after school, as soon as Bella was driven home by Charlie, her childhood friend Jacob also came to see her, similarly warning her that a group of outsiders had arrived in town and advising her not to go out unnecessarily except for school.

Jacob also seemed dissatisfied with Bi Xiao, who suddenly left after she supposedly found a boyfriend.

At this moment, Bella increasingly felt that both Edward and Jacob were hiding something.

Additionally, whenever Edward or Jacob came to her, the necklace Bi Xiao gave her would always emit a magic that only she could feel.

It seemed to be warning her. This phenomenon never occurred with Charlie or any other classmates.

This made Bella suspicious of the Cullen family and Jacob.

Since meeting Bi Xiao and realizing the world was not as peaceful as imagined, Bella knew that there might be unknown dangers hidden among humans. Could Edward and Jacob be such?

Despite her suspicions, Bella didn’t intend to pursue them.

After all, whether it was Edward or Jacob, they showed kindness to Bella, which she could feel. She was more concerned about Charlie.

Charlie might be the police chief, but what if the one behind these strange murders was not an ordinary person?
