The next Sera adorned her white mask reverting to her identity as Shadow of Death. She headed to the guild headquarter upon receiving the guild master summon. Walking on the long corridor, she stopped before giant doors, and guarding these doors were two guards in shining armor and holding spears. The mont the two guards saw Sera, they imdiately opened the path and let her enter.
Taking a deep breath before entering, Sera cald down her heart and walked in.
The first thing you would see upon entering the eting room was the big throne at the other end of the room, and sitting on this throne was a handso man exuding elegance and an air of arrogance extre, this man was none other than the guild master of one of seven strongest guild in the capital, although located at the bottom of the Seven, it didn't stop Lucifer Morningstar from acting arrogant as if he owned half of the world.
Upon seeing Sera's arrival, the man sitting on the throne, Lucifer placed one leg above the other and said, his voice was practically loud, so loud that it resonated through the eting room.
''Welco, Shadow. We have been waiting for your arrival.''
Sera nodded and sat at the other end of the giant table in the middle of the room; as she sat, her eyes quickly scanned the room. There were twelve n with her addition; Lucifer was not counted among death. Lucifer called them the twelve demon lords, such a childish naming, but you could lose your head if you underestimated any of them.
Most of them showed hostility upon seeing Sera sitting together with them, but she showed no emotion as if they weren't worth her ti.
Just when one of them wanted to say sothing, a man with red hair, a magic swordsman because he felt displeased with Sera's attitude he froze when those brown eyes locked him in place, the man soon found himself in the middle of blood sea, corpses littered the sea like an endless nightmare.
Qkil gulped down as he felt cold sweat run down his back; Sera killing intent was so intense that it was able to twist reality; he wondered how many people she killed in the real world to be able to have this killing intent? Just by imagining it made Qkil shudder intensely.
Because Sera quickly concealed her killing intent, Qkil heaved a sigh of relief; he lowered his head, feeling ashad of himself. The others frowned as they could also feel Sera's heavy killing intent, the one that felt the most uncomfortable was the man in shinning platinum armor, a handso middle-aged man with blonde hair and a beautifully trimd beard.
The reason for his uncomfortableness was because of his class, a paladin. He was the strongest after the guild master. His na is Sir Perceval; the man frowned but chose to stay silent. The others also did the sa.
Seeing the tense atmosphere reigning inside the eting room, Lucifer chuckled before touching her most prized weapon, Angel of salvation, a legend-grade artifact.
By the way, artifacts are classified by grade, such as:
Common; Bronze, Silver, Gold, Legend, Mystic, and Godly.
So Lucifer possessing a Legend grade artifact could be said that he had the right to be arrogant because Legend grade artifacts aren't easy to acquire; only a few exceptional individuals and the guild masters of the seven guilds owned one, by the way, Sera was part of those exceptional individuals as she owned a legend grade dagger called Silent night, this was one of the reasons why Lucifer valued her so highly coupled with near-perfect assassination skills, it was thanks to Sera that the Fallen Angel guild managed to occupy the highest seats among the lowest of the seven guilds.
Finally, Lucifer opened his mouth to announce.
''We will begin the Ancient civilization quest soon. As you might know, this is a Hell mode quest. We fought hard to acquire this quest; we must finish it soon because the other guilds are eyeing us; if we fail, they will snatch the quest from our hands, sothing I particularly didn't wish for to happen.
I know that so of you are dissatisfied with Shadow but bear in mind that I shan't tolerate any misbehavior. She had proven her worth by slaying our enemy vice guild leader, she earned her place, and I fully trust her.''
The others could only grumble at this ntion; Qkil clicked his tongue and looked away; there was another person who reacted the sa way as Qkil did; however, unlike Qkil, she didn't look away but glared at Sera, her eyes full of hostility. There was a reason behind this hostility of the female mage; At the sa ti, none of them present had ever seen Sera's figure, they reckoned that she must be an extrely beautiful woman judged by her deanor and the air surrounding her, there was even a rumor circulating that stated that Lucifer accidentally saw Sera's real face and thus beca infuriated with her.
Whether all the twelve present believes in such rumor rest to be proven, but the female mage who goes by the na of Sharon, Lucifer's childhood friend, obviously believed in this rumor which made her extrely wary of Sera; however, she could not do anything for fear of enraging Lucifer who seed extrely fond of Sera, she could only ground her teeth in hatred while suddenly abiding her ti until it was ti to strike.
Once again, Sera ignored her entourage and waited for Lucifer to continue.
''We will attack with all our force, the enemy Boss is a 4 Stars Boss, nothing we ever faced until now. We must be careful. I know it is unwise to focus all our force on this quest, but we do not have the choice. Don't worry; I made sure that the other guilds will not attack our headquarter during our absence.''
Upon hearing Lucifer's words filled with confidence, the others nodded, feeling a bit better as they fired nothing other than getting attacked while not being present; if soone were to acquire their guild's stone, it would be over.
Lucifer nodded his head pleased; he then proceeded to look outside, toward the endless tower in the distance. Although they are in the capital, their position was too far for the Tower. To climb up the tower, you would need the astronomical amount of Fa Points, and this quest they were about to complete would give them a lot of Fa points, enough to try going into the tower once.
Lucifer smiled, already seeing his glorious return from the tower. He will step over them and reign as a supre demon.
