"Say... are you one of the mbers of that hidden cult that did nasty work behind the scenes?"
Upon hearing what he said, the demonized leader’s eyes imdiately turned sharp.
"You..... how did you know about it?" He asked.
There were many questions in his mind he wanted to ask this person, but it was more important for him to know how this person found out about the cult. What is his relationship with them?
Without responding to his question, under the mask, the lip extended into a cold smile. "I see. I take that as a ’yes’ then."
"If you don’t want to hurt you, just answer my ques—"
*Bang!*
The demonized leader demanded in a cold voice but his word was stopped by a loud bang along with a streak of red-orange light.
Wha-?
The demonized leader looked stunned at that mont.
His hand subconsciously touched his itchy neck. But he was imdiately confused when he touched sothing wet on it and sothing seed to be flowing.
What the hell?, the demonized leader thought as he tried to see what wetted his fingers. However, it was dark because it was nightti and the lamp inside had been destroyed a while ago, so he could not see what it was.
Anyway, that didn’t stop him from knowing what it truly was that wetted his fingers. The sll of that liquid was enough for him to identify that what wetted his neck was his own blood!
Add to that the prickly pain he felt, he was more or less certain that there was a wound on his neck.
He touched his neck again and figured out that there was a hole in it.
Wha!? How did I get this?
His eyes were shaking as he tried to recall how he got the wound.
Right, that mysterious noise and spark of light just now. It must be the cause!
He looked at the masked man in front of him and noticed he was pointing an object in his direction.
"Y-you..... what is that?" Despite having a hole in his neck, the demonized leader still asked him as if nothing serious had happened to him.
"Just a random toy."
This ti, that person replied to him.
The object had a dark hole in its muzzle and a little smoke was coming out of it. He could not recognize it. It was the first ti he saw it. But his intuition told him that it was a powerful artifact.
He wondered what kind of weapon it was. Seeing that it could carve a hole in him without difficulty, there was no denying that it was a powerful weapon.
If I have that, climbing to a higher position in the cult will be much easier for .
With that in mind, "I see. Hehehe! Wonderful!" The demonized leader suddenly chuckled as though he found sothing interesting.
"Even though my skin right now is a hundred tis tougher than a normal human’s skin, that toy of yours was still able to make a hole of it! Wonderful!" Added the demonized leader.
"A hundred tis? I see..." the other party just said so before he fired another shot. This ti, it was three consecutive shots.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The demonized leader tried to dodge by following the streak of lights, but the bullet ca out faster than he thought. As a result, both his shoulders were hit and the center of his head was penetrated and now there appeared another hole.
The demonized frowned and looked more shocked.
It not only had strong penetration power, but it also had a speed of light! The leader thought in admiration towards that weapon.
Even with such injury, the demonized leader’s expression was more excitent than worry. His frown was due to the inexplicable power of that weapon.
I need to get my hand on it.
Thankfully, he had the demonized body. Because of his demonized power, he could easily regenerate his wounds.
Eman, who was behind the mask, watched as the enemy healed his wounds in an instant. The wound automatically healed. Well, he already expected it from such an opponent.
Upon arriving here, he was not shocked when he saw the enemy’s appearance. A demonic creature is what he saw. His figure could only be described as fiendish.
The creature looked identical to those elite demons he encountered in their mission in the Sunville Village.
But on second look, he noticed that this one was sowhat different.
Unlike the mindless demons he encountered before, this one seed cool-headed and had full control of himself despite his demonic appearance. Eman could not help but recall in his mind the aristocrat demon.
The words the aristocrat demon told him are still in his mind, but Eman is still debating whether he would believe him or not. He also needed to think about what benefit he would get if he went to the other side of the mist.
He sent a sneak glance at the person beside him.
Eh?
Eman was surprised to see who it was. He did not expect to see him here.
Why is Rossbert here?
As far as he knows, Rossbert and Zennie went to the capital because they need sothing in the rchant Guild.
Before arriving in this mansion, he learned that this place was known as rc Town. It was located in the southern part of the empire. It was slightly farther from the capital.
A while ago, after entering the town, he rode on Sphin’s back. While in the air, he noticed strong magical energy in this part of the town.
Watching from above, he learned that the strong magical force ca from this mansion. So he decided to co here and check what it was.
As he was above, he noticed the sll of death in the air and the gloomy atmosphere below. He also spotted so people sneakily moving around, but Eman was not interested in them. He was more interested in the strong magical force he felt a while ago.
However, by the ti he approached here, a strong demonic aura suddenly erupted. That’s why he decided to co here. eting Rossbert here was just a pure coincidence.
