447 Demon worlds portal (1/2)

'But why did they try to separate the demon killer mercenary squad? Also, what are they doing here?'

He was not surprised by the demon's plan to attack the mercenary guild; however, what made him puzzled was the actions of the demons.

”There is nothing in the cursed Abyss except for the death energy which is not that useful for the demons when compared to the demon essence of nature in the demon world. So, why?”

After thinking about the reason behind the demon's actions he was still unable to find their motive and shook his head.

”Anyway, I should go back and alert all the mercenaries about this attack on the mercenary guild,”

Since he was unable to find their motive, the guild master finally decided to return back to the demon killer's location and then go back to the mercenary guild to alert others.

He was not a normal mercenary that lacked experience. He was called the king of mercenaries for a reason.

He was known for his adaptability to any kind of situation and he could clearly analyse any situations and plan according to it. So, he didn't waste time on something that he was unable to find and decided to return back to the guild before facing the demon head-on.

...

As the guild master was returning to the demon killer's location, Ajax stood in front of a swamp with his eyes closed and tried to sense the space elements to find the portal to the demon world.

Behind him, there was a huge swamp crocodile that laid lifelessly on the ground. Upon its body, Edmond sat and looked at Ajax while hoping that he would find the demon world's portal in a short time.

”Sigh...”

Soon, Ajax opened his eyes and sighed before looking at Edmond and shook his head.

”No need to sigh, Ajax. There are only 2 more locations we need to check,” Even though Edmond also sighed in his heart, he consoled himself that we would find the portal very soon.

”Yes,”

Ajax nodded his head and immediately rushed towards another location which was a huge tree that was more than 1000 meters height and 10 meters thick.

As soon as they reached the third location, Ajax and Edmond found a demon that wore an armour that gave a terrifying aura.

'A demon?'

Edmond and Ajax stopped in their tracks and thought in their heads before looking at each others' faces.

”Don't kill me. Don't kill me”

However, to their surprise, the demon kneeled on the ground and started begging them to not to kill him.

”Huh?” Ajax and Edmond carefully looked at the demon in front of him and raised their brows.

”Ajax, be careful. He is from the royal family of the demon world,” Edmond's words made Ajax serious all of sudden because he could understand what Edmond's words actually mean.

Every demon that was from the royal family would be born with an inherent skill that was very powerful. So, Edmond asked Ajax to be careful.

”What should we do with him, Captain Edmond?” Ajax looked at the demon in front of him and asked Edmond.
