Chapter 480 - Why me? (2/2)

”Oh, I will not kill you Harry. For I know you will come to our side eventually just like your father did. You see, the gauntlet has already told me you will. It will be Monk and Ray as my left and right hand men.”

At that point, Harry understood what had happened. Maybe Gary hadn't noticed it but there had been a slip up with names. He didn't say Monk and Harry, he said Ray. This whole time, even while possessed by the demon, the real Gary just wanted Ray back by his side like the good old days.

He was never after Harry, perhaps he had even gone searching for Ray but could never find Ray, and now he was using him as a cheap substitute.

”I'm not the main character in this story after all.” Harry mumbled. ”I'm sorry but what you wish won't come true. Ray will never be by your side. Not unless you return to us.” Harry said.

Gary's blood started to boil and rage from within. He wanted to do something, lash out to get rid of this rage, but he could hurt Harry if he didn't control himself. He would seem simply childish if he lashed out after losing this argument of his.

Turning his head, he saw a forger close to him banging away. He walked up to the large man and with the demon gauntlet he picked him up by the neck as if he weighed at all.

”Look at this, look at this power I now possess. All of these lives belong to me. They mean nothing to me and I can do as I wish with them all.”

”Kill him.” Monk said.

”If you think this is a way for you to get me to come to your side, then you are wrong.” Harry said. ”Do you kill innocent people as well? Soon even your own army will turn on you if you do that.”

”Kill him!” Monk said again.

Gary's grip appeared to tighten and the man was struggling to breathe. The other workers tried their best to ignore it, but it was hard when they could see their fellow man being held up and struggling to breath.

This was not a leader they wanted to follow. Morfran the dark guild leader would have never done things like this, he was still human and cared for his people greatly. But this young boy, Gary, was just a demon in human skin.

”Stop!” Harry shouted, running forward, there were no weapons in his hand, and Monk seeing this, went in for a strike with his dagger, but Harry ducked underneath it with ease.

”Monk, you would have become far stronger if you stayed at Avrion. You have no idea what we have been through!” Harry shouted now having reached Gary. With his full weight, he had marched into Gary causing him to drop the man to the floor.

But seconds after Monk had his dagger drawn and was ready to slice Harry's throat.

”You think I'm weak huh!” Monk shouted. ”Let's see you say that again with your throat ripped out.”

But before the dagger could reach, Gary had stopped it, grabbing it with the gauntlet hand. ”Do not kill him.” Gary said. ”He needs to see the truth and he will join our side. Tomorrow, the Redwing army will be upon us, and I want you to watch us win this war, as I do so without even losing a single soldier.
