18 Chapter 18 (1/2)

Somewhere inside the city was a room with a group of people having a meeting while sitting around a round table. Suddenly the man that interrogated Lucifer ran into the room with a pale expression.

”My Lord! I have urgent news about the demons!” the frightened man yelled.

”What!?” the man sitting in the largest chair yelled.

The other men around the table all had shocked expressions upon hearing this.

”Demons are here?!” some of the men sitting around the table murmured.

”Hire a courier and inform his majesty at once!” the lord yelled at a nearby guard.

.....

A few days pass and in the middle of an open area outside the city, two people were sparring. One of the men was in a black robe while the other was in a bright red robe. The man in the red robe had a slight advantage over the person in the black robe due to experience and technique but the man in the black robe made up for this weakness with strength.

Then suddenly the man in the red robes through a faint and instead struck at his opponent's legs.

The man in the black robes wasn't able to defend and fell down to the ground.

”Your loss,” Kir said to me.

Kir helps me up and says ”Your getting better, at first you could not even defend against my strikes but now you can defend against most of my attacks.”

I couldn't help but think back to the ally where I saw that woman murdered. What was that creature?

I put that question behind me and asked if Kir wanted to join me on a subjugation quest from the guild that interested me.
