Chapter 697: Old friends (3) (1/2)

The night goes on as the moonlight shines bright up in the sky.

Meanwhile, somewhere else, the space around a residence suddenly distorted.

This residence is not far from a cave. In the past, it looked like hut. But after years had passed, the hut is replaced by a grandiose and a large villa.

When the space distorted, the guards around the residence all unsheathe their weapon.

But when someone comes out from that space rip, the guards that a was about to charge through and protect the residence all halted.

They knew who that person was. It is hard to not know who that person was if they are a person of Pandemonium.

Some of the guards come from the villages deep in some deep forest where the statue of that person was erected and put in front of the entrance of their village.

the guards all kneel to the ground and some of them even prostrated to the ground.

Someone almost stabbed himself when he was trying to kneel.

This person is of course Azief.

He went to Will first. And Will is at the villa of the Immortal Couple. So, here he was.

He did not expect that the guards were so startled seeing him that all of them kneeled and some of them goes even beyond that.

Sometimes, he underestimated the reverence of the people who treated him like some guardian god of Pandemonium.

Most of the guards that guard the residence seems to be around twenty years of age. They are still young.

Some of them were probably in their teens when the Fall happens and many of them come to Pandemonium with their parents when he first opened it up.

Probably that is why they were sent here, he thought to himself. The task of guarding the Immortal Couple is probably the safest task any recruit of the army could do.

Most of them are in Ord Condensing and only one of them is in Energy Disperse Stage.

Azief saw that the young kid almost about to stab himself so he waved his hand. The wind heeds his Will and the wind slap away that person weapon from about to stab him.

The young boy was able to kneel safely without having being skewered by his own weapon.

The young boy steals a glance at him and shows an apologetic expression. Azief shake his head slightly with a smile to assure him

Then they all said in unison

'Your Excellency' The guards of this residence were all shocked from the sudden appearance of the highest person of Pandemonium.

Guarding the villa of the Immortal Couple is a relatively safe job and it has its benefits too. Many of the Palace Guards wanted such jobs.

Since the immortal Couple is the benefactor of Pandemonium and was treated very well by Death Monarch, nobody really dares to make trouble to the Immortal Couple even though the Heaven Flute Lihua has lost all her powers for summoning that demonic army.

It is a high paying job with low threat to one own lives. And every once in a while, there is some great figures of Pandemonium that would come to the residence to pay respect to the Immortal Couple.

But while of this is true, those with ambition would never wanted to be stationed to such a place since it is far from the capital of power in the Centre Palace.

Who would have thought that today, Death Monarch, the highest ruler of Pandemonium would deign himself buy coming to the residence?

Azief could see the respect, awe and fear in the eyes of the guards.

'Excuse yourself from this area. I have something to say to them' By now, he believes that the Immortal Couple would hear the ruckus

The guards all nodded.
