Azeroth hesitated for a mont but hearing Lucas's words about crushing that thing, he gritted his teeth and spoke"Okay, I agree. But you have to swear that you will not kill ."
"Why not? Let's begin now?" Lucas spoke while smiling in satisfaction.
"As a fellow human being, I swear that as along Azeroth, a human mber of Villain Society answers my question, I will not kill him. I swear by the mana that rules the world."
As soon Lucas spoke the words, the mana in the surrounding gushed and swirled around Lucas and Azeroth as if it was asserting that they are the witness to Lucas's pledge.
The mana that was dancing and swirling around finally quietened down after a mont.
Azeroth finally breathed the air of relief and look at Lucas with a pleading gaze and spoke"What do you want to know?"
"So, Demon Azeroth from the Demonic Country. Speak about why did you infiltrate Villain Society." Lucas spoke.
Lucas's words rang as thunder on Azeroth's words and his face beca colourless.
With a trembling voice, he asked"How did you know, I am a demon?"
Azeroth was almost unconscious when Lucas called him a demon a few monts and his state was too worse to notice Lucas's words.
Lucas didn't speak but stared at him and pulled out his sword and put it near Azeroth's throat
Azeroth's pupil shrank in fear and he shrieked "What are doing, didn't you swear you won't kill ?"
"Hey, bastard. Did you forget my words? I will not kill you as long as you answer my question and you are asking questions, instead of answering. Do you think I have ti to play questions tag here," Lucas spoke coldly with his sharp gaze landed on Azeroth.
"I will.....answer, I will answer. Please put down the sword." Azeroth pleaded as he cursed his luck.
'This bastard had more screw lose than . He is taking out his sword every ti, he pissed off.'
'Just how did I catch his attention.'Azeroth thought. He was on the verge of a ntal breakdown.
"Since you are capable enough of knowing that I am a demon, you must have already known that ther are demonic spies in human countries."
"Yeah, so what?" Lucas asked robbing his chin.
"Since, there are already spies in high authorities in many departnts. Our group thought of doing sothing different." Azeroth spoke.
Lucas's brows furrowed on hearing Azeroth's words.
"I thought if we can increase our influence over the Villain Society and can take it under us. We will have another huge card as well as manpower to play at our disposal." Azeroth lanted.
pᴀɴda nᴏvel His plan was going quite well until he t this bastard.
Lucas rubbed their chin and asked, "Do you know the nas of the spies or do you rember about any post, they are present?
"No, I don't know that much. Except for the higher authorities, the demon who was sent here as spies doesn't know anything about it. Moreover, we are just low level and were just scouted and given orders through parchnt, we don't even know the demon who is in charge." Azeroth explained slowly and steadily as he feared that the boy may kill him due to his frustration.
"Okay, let's leave it You don't know the demons who are working as spies but you may certainly know a thing or two about the nobles who are siding with Villain Society," Lucas smirked.
Gulped
Azeroth swallowed his saliva in his mind, he had already pictured the fate of these people.
"Langs, Cornerstone, Hundlewood and Sparks. I don't know about others. I have only heard about these noble houses collaborating." Azeroth spoke.
"Are the head of the house collaborating or soone from their houses. Do you know the nas of the houses?" Lucas asked.
"No!" Azeroth shook his head.
Lucas rubbed his forehead as he thought it was quite troubleso. The chance of the head or soone from the main beach colluding with the Villain Society is quite less. He can't just shoot an arrow without knowing the real culprit otherwise, he would be one who will be trouble.
As Azeroth looked at Lucas lost in his thoughts, he rembered sothing and spoke"There is another house. We aren't collaborating with them directly and they also don't know that we are Villain Society."
"Go on." Lucas looked at him curiously.
"We need a stable supply of manpower for various things. They have an illegal slave business and according to our demands, they were able to capture people and sold us as slaves. I knew about this because there was once where I was given the mission to escort the slaves" Azeroth spoke.
Lucas's eyes widened as he heard the revelation about the illegal slave trade.
"Who!" Lucas spoke coldly and his voice carried an authoritative power.
Sweat started to trickle down on Azeroth's forehead as he noticed Lucas's angry expression and thought, 'Why did he beco angry suddenly.'
Azeroth cald himself and spoke, "It was Reeves's house."
Lucas frowned as he thought about the house na and thought it sounded quite familiar and suddenly he rembered.
The Vice President of the Student Council belongs to Reeves house.
"Haaaa." Lucas sighed as he thought things are getting troubleso
Lucas asked Azeroth about so other info about Villain Society and Azeroth spoke as much as he knew.
There wasn't anything useful in this information. The Villain Society wasn't much organized at a lower level and only leaders work in a coordinated and orderly manner.
Lucas after noting everything now move on to the next thing.The real thing for which he did all this.
Taking information is just an appetiser. Now it was ti for real business.
"Azeroth, I want the ring that you carry," Lucas asked in a commanding tone.
"Ring...What ring!" Azeroth exclaid in surprise.
"The ring you have taken after killing and torturing a man you t on your way to Cyprus," Lucas spoke.
Azeroth's eye widened in horror as he heard Lucas's words.
'Just from which hell did this man crawl from. Am I the demon or he is the demon? Even a real demon falls short of this boy's cunningness.'Azeroth muttered inwardly.
"Hmmm. What did you say?" Lucas asked?
"Nothing, "Azeroth muttered
"Okay, don't waste ti and give the ring and you are free to go," Lucas spoke.
Azeroth hesitated but finally decided to ask"How did you know about the ring?"
"The man you have killed is one of my family mbers. We have a tracking bloodline ability. Before you killed him, he put a tracker on you."Lucas spoke and smirked.
"Now did you know why I knew many things about you?"Lucas grinned.
Azeroth trembled as he looked at Lucas's golden eyes.
So, he had been always in the palm of this boy's hands. He cursed his luck and regretted killing the man and taking that weird ring.
Azeroth raised his hand with difficulty and summoned the ring.
A vapour of violet colour appeared on his palm and as he dispersed, a beautiful ring with a black gem embedded in it appear.
Lucas looked at the ring and thought his efforts were not wasted.
The ring was in a separate dinsional space device that Azeroth kept. These devices can only be used by demons. If humans tried to intervene, it will explode.
Unless you are a 7-Star and forcefully overco the barrier responsible for identifying the mana between humans and demons, one has no chance to obtain the things demons kept in ther storage.
Lucas took the ring and it disappeared into thin air.
Azeroth looked at the magical scene with a surprised expression.
Lucas stood up and held the hilt of the sword to pull it out.
" Oh!! By the way, I heard you demons have demonic power so where are your horns and wings appear."Lucas asked curiously.
"There are two types of demons, Primitive demons who looked like a monster and humanoid demons who are higher-level demons that can change their appearance."
Not all demons have wings. Most of us just look like normal humans. Only high-class demons those who hail from prominent families have a fierce demonic form." He answered.
"Moreover, I am a mixed demon born by the union between humans and demons. My mother was a demon while my father was his slave." Azeroth spoke sorrowfully
"Oh!" Lucas exclaid and threw a potion at Azeroth.
"My mother used to..."
Before Azeroth could speak more, Lucas cut him off and spoke"Stop, I am not interested in that bullshit."
"Now our deal is over. You will be in your way and I will be on mine." Lucas spoke and put down a potion.
Azeroth looked at the potion quite greedily and taking it with his trembling hand, opened the lid and raised it near his mouth.
But before he can take a slip.
A red crimson line flashed and his head fall to the ground with a small thud.
Blood spurted from his neck like spring and splattered on the ground.
The head that fell on the ground had still his eyes opened with a surprised expression which was asking why.
"Since, you have already died. I think I should answer your question."
"In the oath, I said as a fellow human being which ans, I considered you as human but Takk...Tskk" Lucas clicked his tongue.
"What bad luck you turned out to be a demon. So the oath was already invalid in the beginning." Lucas grinned.
"Now all those who are still alive and watching the scenes. Do you want to kill yourself or let kill you"
"But let remind you if I kill you, you will not die peacefully," Lucas shouted.
The limbless n who lay on the ground shuddered in fear.
Lucas after checking that everyone is dead walked toward the side where a bookshelf was present.
He pulled out a book.
The wall shook and bifurcated opening into two halves and in the middle, stairs were going in an upward direction.
