"Hey! You animal, be careful. Tonight might just be your last. Don't say I didn't warn you.'' Lucia finished and held Martin's hand and they walked away.
After a while, Cornelius came back from the trance he was in and looked around with a confused expression. He placed the glass of wine down and walked out of the place.
"Why didn't you let me finish him? I haven't tasted human blood in a long time due to the rule passed by Lord Walden'' Martin said as he wrapped his coat around Lucia's body.
"What is the use of a useless meat? He is dirty, don't waste your time. And you, you should be careful with your words, what if someone hears you?''
"But, what did you mean by what you said earlier on? You told that man to be careful.''
"Nothing much, I was just warning him. You know how dirty people tend to attract evil spirits and demons to their side. Anyways, let's get out of here. I'm disgusted by these fake humans.''
"Yes, my lady'' Martin got into the car with Lucia and drove away.
Martin was Lucia's
After they left, Cornelius came out of building to his car and also got in.
Cornelius drove out of the hotel and entered the highway road. He started whistling as he drove. After a while, his car stopped and he couldn't turn it on again.
"Assh, what kind of mess is this?'' he cussed and got out of the car.
Cornelius went and opened the hood to check the engine.
The air around him suddenly turned eerie and he felt a chilling cold. Cornelius looked around him and realized he was at a place he couldn't tell. He closed the hood and went to open his car.
When he bent down to pick his phone, something like an animal rushed forward and carried his body away as he screamed.

Next day….
Kenji Apartments.
Walden came out of his room and saw a man sitting at the hall quietly. Walden walked to him and asked.
"What is it so early in the morning, Mason?'' Walden sat across him.
"There was another killing last night. Four bodies were found at the highway.'' Mason said.
"So?''
"I need you to find out who did it.''
"What does that have to do with me?''
"You are the guardian of this world. If anything happens to disrupt the order, you will have to explain it to the council.''
"What do you have on this killer? Is it a he or a she?''
"Is a he and a she. There are two suspects.'' Mason placed an envelope on the table and Walden took it.
"Two days ago, there was a reported breakout of two demons from the gates of hell. They are the soul eaters. They eat both the soul and body of humans. Right now we don't know the total number of souls they've devoured, but we can't let that number be up to 7. You know 7 is the complete number for a demon to become immortal. When that happens, we won't be able to find them easily. They will become like humans and hide amongst humans after losing their special scent.''
Walden opened the envelope and looked at the pictures of the man and woman. 'So, these are the two that escaped?''
"Yes. They were able to do that because of the full moon. On the night Liam came out to find that woman, those demons came out with him. If you don't find them soon, they might come for that human girl next.''
Walden looked at Mason for a while and asked, "so you knew about her? Looks like I was the only one who didn't know anything.''
"I am not obligated to answer your questions, but if you are able to catch these two demons, I promise to put a more powerful spell on her that will make it difficult for a demon to locate her''
''Keep your promise then…'' Walden said and stood up.
"Before that, what exactly do you plan on doing with that human girl? Are you going to kill her?'' Mason gave Walden a suspicious look.
"I'm still thinking about it...'' Walden said and walked away.
Mason smiled and vanished from the hall.
…..
Apartment 3030.
"Alonso, are you done?'' Alison came out of her room dressed in blue pants and yellow blouse.
"Elder sister, how do I look?'' Alonso came out of his room wearing his new clothes.
"Whoa! Now that you are wearing new cloths, you look taller. Get your bag and let's go. I will send you to school first.''
"Alright!'' Alonso smiled and went into his room. He returned and said to Alison.
"Elder sister, let's go!''
"Okay!'' Alison looked at him and smiled. She picked her bag and went to the porch to change her sandals.
When they came out of the building, they saw Lucia standing by her car.
"Hello…'' Lucia said as she waved at them.
"Lady Lucia…''
"Hi, Alonso!''
"Hurry or we will be late...'' Alison said as she got into the front seat.
"That is my car and I didn't come to see you… oh, that is your CEO's car. He must be getting ready to come down. Alison, let's wait!''
"I'm driving the car if you don't get in.'' Alison said as she moved over to the driver's seat.
"Coming… you are no fun at all.'' Alison got into the front seat and Alison drove away.
"Take this and find out where they are hiding.'' Walden said as they walked out of the building. They had just walked out the moment Alison drove away.
"Yes, boss!'' Ali took the envelope before opening the backdoor for Walden to get into the car.
"Has she left?'' Walden asked.
"Yes, lady Lucia was here a few minutes ago. They are sending Alonso to school.''
"I can't believe she is sending a demon to school. This girl is so audacious!''
"Well, as least she didn't drive him out.''
"We didn't give her a lot of choices. Right, what kind of work does she do in the company?''
"She is under the marketing department and often runs errands, arranges meetings and sometimes delivers coffee to the workers. The team leader recommended her for a promotion but she rejected it.''
