Chapter 117: Fall Out (1/2)

”So, what happened here?” Raya Pazier just said those words.

She was basically asking for what happened between Oumu and the Nocturnal Phantom.

There has to be something that happened since Nocturnal Phantom, the guy who was just surrounding Lucifer and acting as a guard dog this whole time, suddenly came out.

Besides, Oumu was lying on the ground so it would be weird if nothing happened instead.

Anyway, even though Raya Pazier didn't say those words to anyone, there is still someone who answered her, and that is Oumu, who has now worked up his way to get up.

”Well...it seems that I alerted those guys when I took one step nearer towards their Lord, so this happened.”

”No worries, though. It seems that we have finally resolved the misunderstanding.” Oumu said those words with a thin smile on his face.

It was as if he didn't undergo such a traumatic event where he could feel his whole life being endangered with just a single look of the demon incarnate.

Well, this just goes to show how fast Oumu would be able to regain his wits back.

However, it seems that there is someone who didn't agree with what he said, and that is...of course, Raya Pazier.

”Huh? What do you mean you cleared up the misunderstanding?”

”Are you forgetting something? You have not identified yourself. You did not say if you are someone who has come to serve Lucis or not.”

”In other words, you are still a danger and must be apprehended right at this very moment.”

Raya Pazier said, and what she said made sense. Oumu still has not confirmed if he would serve under Lucifer, so it would be too dangerous to let him run free.

In other words, there is no misunderstanding that happened between Nocturnal Phantom and Oumu.

And that was why...as soon as Raya Pazier said those words, a dark fog suddenly swept Oumu's words, and a body suddenly formed behind his back, which made Oumu fall down to the ground once more.

Thud! A loud banging sound resounded out as Oumu's body and the ground met.

But that was not all that happened as Oumu's hands were both grabbed by the dark fog that made him fall to the ground.

And as soon as the dark fog was sure that Oumu wouldn't be able to move anymore, a head appeared on top of the body, and Nocturnal Phantom...spoke with a very deep voice, the voice that seems to represent how angry he was right now.

”You...so you are not a servant of our Lord! How dare a fucking piece of shit try to even fool me, the great shadow of Darkness himself!”

”If you are not a servant of our Lord, then you are not needed here!”  Nocturnal Phantom said those words as he raised one of his hands.

His hand...turned into a very sharp blade, but that was not all.

Grimmy, the demon incarnate, also lent Nocturnal Phantom some of his powers as Nocturnal Phantom's hand that turned into a very sharp blade was shining like a real blade right now.

Of course, this is all because Oumu tried to fool them and say that he is not an enemy of Lucifer, their lord.

There's no way that they wouldn't be angry with something like that, now that their roles are to protect Lucifer while he was busy with something.

However, before even Nocturnal Phantom could slice Oumu's head like a soft butter being sliced by a hot knife, Oumu...spoke as he tried to move his body around.

”W-wait! I did not mean to fool you! Certainly not! You can ask that other guy, Rouge if you want to make sure!” Oumu said as he desperately tried to stop Nocturnal Phantom from slicing his head into two parts.

And because Rouge's name was mentioned, which is someone Nocturnal Phantom knows that he serves Lucifer as well, Nocturnal Phantom...stopped his actions.

However, the very sharp blade was still there, threatening to cut open Oumu's head into two parts right at this very moment.

Anyway, because Rouge's name was mentioned, Nocturnal Phantom immediately whipped his head towards Rouge, who was...right beside him, who had his hand out and seems to be reaching out towards the very sharp blade of Nocturnal Phantom.

It seems that Rouge was trying to stop Nocturnal Phantom from killing Oumu but it was to no result as Nocturnal Phantom's blade just keeps dissipating into a dark fog and returns back as a blade.

Anyway, Nocturnal Phantom paid no heed to that as he knew that Rouge would never be able to stop him, and he just spoke.

”You! What he said - is that right!?” Nocturnal Phantom angrily asked Rouge. It seems that he couldn't contain his anger right now.

It was very weird seeing Nocturnal Phantom like this when he was just being chummy and peaceful earlier while singing praises for Lucifer.

Anyway, now that Nocturnal Phantom was talking to him, Rouge spoke right away.
