Blood Bath and Medium (3)

A huge, pale spirit appeared behind Layton. Then, it gently raised its hand, and Layton's head floated up. A soul was dragged out from the stump of his neck and stuffed into its cloak. Then, the spirit instantly disappeared as if it had never existed.

As this happened too suddenly, everyone in the conference room was stunned. It wasn't until blood splattered from Layton's neck onto his body and a second person's head flew into the air that someone remembered to scream.

William, who was controlling Liliana's mirror shadow, calmly took out a key from the waist of Layton's decapitated corpse amidst the screams around him and undid the shackles on his body. He could use spells to destroy these shackles, but the durability of his response terminal was limited. He still had to use 80% of the Liliana Mirror Shadow's interface to deal with a Demon General under an unknown master. It was better to conserve as much as possible.
