At any party, there were several guests and members but they were only a few people who were able to move here and there in the part and one of them was the caterer...
And there she was, short black hairs, a well-proportioned body brimming with the allure of youth, and a bewitching figure that could stop anyone in his or her track. Even when she stood among the crowd, her beauty stood out and there was no doubt that she was the center of attention.
Looking at her, Devon arched his eyebrow and a demonic smile appeared on his face.
She walked towards the kitchen quietly, entirely ignoring the ugly stares she was receiving from both men and women at the party. The tray of wine in her hand was already empty, so she went to get more.
"I can help you." the woman was still in the kitchen when a strange voice echoed in her ear and pulled her away from her puzzled state. She looked left and right for the person who had just spoken to her, but there was no one to be found.
"I can give you that item." The voice echoed in her ear again and again. Until the woman began to assume that she was becoming after all the pressure she had to deal with, "Please leave me!" she screamed out, with her hands grabbing her head.
"Don't you want to save your mother anymore." When those words got to her, the screaming and head grabbing stopped, she stumbled down to the ground with tears in her eyes.
"I'm going to ask one more time! Don't you want to save your mother?" The woman bit her lips and very quickly she answered, "Yes, yes.... I do."
She wiped the tears off her eyes, as she knew crying wasn't an option. There was no doubt that the person talking to her didn't have a shred of sympathy.
*PUFF*
A bottle containing two tiny pellets appeared in her hand. Upon seeing them, the lady's eyes lit up, and she held her grip on it even tighter. As though the pellets meant everything in the world to her.
"I want you to distract the guests and guards on the floor!" the woman couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief, as the job she was given was well within her ability.
Without a word, she went to make outside the kitchen, making her way to the stage.
Women are one of the most dangerous creatures in the universe, it wasn't even up to thirty minutes after the guards had left their original position, they were now standing at the front of the lady with their full attention on her performance.
"A dancer, I must say she's one of a kind." Devon stood there with his arms clasped beneath his back. The devil was called the devil for a reason and in order to get the woman to that point, Devon broke another deal with it.
...
Stepping into the vip's floor, Devon felt like he has been assaulted by celestial energy, if the main compound energy was like a pool, then this was a lake. If a level 1 powerhouse steps into this place, he or she was bound to leave here as either a level 4 or 5 powerhouse.
The people who were on the floor looked at Devon with ridicule. From his expression, n, every one of them could tell that this was the first time he was experiencing something like this.
"There she is." Even amid this crowd, Brooke still stood out.v"The world's number one talent and your attendant is at your service," Devon whispered in her ear.
Brooke felt her body shake, she didn't have to look at the person before knowing who it was.
"Tell me why I shouldn't fire you if you're even going to be late on your first day." Even though she managed to regain her composure rapidly, her mind wasn't settled. How could someone of her level not sense him approaching her?
She knew with her current level, killing him with a wave of the hand wasn't impossible, so how wasn't she able to feel his presence.
Devon was too hungry to give her an answer, he grabbed the plates of food in front of her and began eating. One was in his hand, while the other four were hovering in the air.
You have to know, nothing makes a girl go crazier than being ignored.
Devon sat on his seat quietly with his full attention on the food in front of him.
"Boy toy, what is someone of your kind doing here." However, Devon was disturbed when a man appeared in his front.
The man's words made the crowd burst out laughing.
A frown appeared on Devon's face, even though they had just met once, he hated this man to the core. If it wasn't because the level gap between them was too much, Devon would have killed him already.
"Do you want to die!" seeing that he was being ignored like the first time, Jake slapped the food off Devon's hand.
*BAM*
The plates on his hand and the ones in mid-air dropped to the ground. This time around, he didn't hide the frown on his face and If looks could kill, Jake would have died more than a million times from Devon's stares.
Jake was about to lift Devon to his seat when Devon shook his hand off him and stood up.
Being treated that way in front of all the guests made Jake even more furious, as his body began brimming with intense killing intent, which enveloped Devon.
The killing intent felt like a soothing sensation to Devon. Even a smile was beginning to form on his face.
"Hahahahahaha...This is very bold of the two of you." Damian was sitting on a luxurious three-seater chair with two ladies on his side. All this seemed like a show to him, as he was laughing the entire time.
Devon turned his face looking into the direction Damian was at. "So we meet again Damian," Devon said
Damian smirked as he saw the look on Devon's face. He still hadn't forgotten the embarrassment of that day, "Hmmm… Ladies and gentlemen, the party is over. We have an important guest to attend to." Damian waved his hand at the guards, giving them a signal to send the guest out. And in so
The guest had all left, leaving only five people left in the room.
"Kid, I wanted to kill you after what you've done to my servant, but seeing how interesting you are, I have better plans for you." Damian's voice sounded
Devon pulled the chair beside him and sat down on it. From the way Damian addressed the issue, he knew this matter was more intense than it appeared to be.
"Jake said you've been harassing his fiancee and my colleague lately and there is nothing he can do about it because you're a core member of the alliance."
"..... Furthermore, you seem to have some connection with that woman, which makes it harder for anyone to mess with you."
Devon slowly shook his head, he didn't know where these words of Damian were going to but whatever he had in mind, it usually wasn't good. Devon stood from his chair and was about to make his way out of the floor when something happened.
Bum! He stumbled upon a barrier, that hindered him from leaving the room.
"You see boy, the only way you're leaving this place is if you battle with Jake. The winner gets the beautiful lady."
"I'm just a personal attendant, I have no interest whatsoever in Elder Brooke. She belongs to the man of her dream." The situation was terrible and Devon knew that, so he was thinking of different ideas on how to escape away from here.
Jake brought out his weapon, "Boy toy if you can survive one strike from me, I'll take you as the winner."
"Don't....." Brooke was about to stop her fiancée from making a terrible mistake when she got a frown from him. With the little time, she had spent with Devon, she knew there was something unusual about him.
A smirk appeared on Devon's face, there's always a light at the end of a tunnel. "Let get things done quickly, I'm a very busy man," Devon said.
"Urghhhhh! Die!" the anger was evident in Jake's voice, as he slashed his sword at Devon in full force.
The force from the sword strike sent explosions and ripples in the form of red lightning towards Devon. The strike was going to destroy its target completely or better still it was a one-hit kill strike.
"I guess I'm the winner, good day, boys." Devon released his grip on the sword and was making his way out of the room, leaving the stunning trio. Devon's move was completely out of ordinary, as he didn't move from his position and still he somehow made Jake's body to be covered in blood.
In his contract with the Devil, there two gift given to him and it was this gift that intrigued Devon and also made him act as he wished. One was a drop of life water and the other was the hit card.
As long as he still had a few breaths left, if the life water was able to touch his mouth then Devon would be completely healed of every single injury within seconds and he would also be at his full potential.
While in the case did the hit card, the card allowed Devon to repel any attack which was being directed at him. The hit card would also make the damage two times stronger than what it used to be.
Earlier which Jake had attacked Devon, and had used the hit card to get out of that attack immediately.
The moment, which everybody in the floor were stunned, this was the chance to flee and without further ado, Devon took that necessary step.
Right about when he was about to leave the room with only a single step left, Devon felt something pierce through his body from behind.
"Puchi!" Devon spat out a large amount of blood from his mouth, falling straight down to the ground.
