Chapter 37 - Provide me the jailbird

" Sire," Hayt bowed before Xavier and continued, " you requested my presence."

" How well are you taking care of the prisoner?" Xavier questioned.

" Torture is going flawlessly well sire, the prisoner won't die for we feed her demon blood, the injury will heal at a fast pace and torture shall continue just like you instructed my lord. "Hayt revealed.

" Why your Blood?" Xavier's index fingernail elongated and he pointed it at Hayt's throat.

" you are a high-ranked demon Hayt, why would you feed her your blood? Speak the truth or I shall slit your throat!" he slightly pushed his fingertip into Hayt'a troat.

" spare me, my lord, for have no ill intentions." he pledged. Sweat started to form at the corner of his head as he stared at the floor beneath. He was sure someone already told him before he was summoned or else how would he have known? He couldn't read his thoughts, could he? The blockage was still there he was sure of that!

" Hahaha, do you think of me as a fool?" Xavier pushed his finger deeper, and blood started to spurt out of the wound. " tell me Hayt, why are you blocking me from accessing your thoughts" Almost immediately a dark snake slid up his left arm and hissed loudly. " there, there, I know, a traitor right? We'll get rid of him, I promise." he caressed the snake's slimy skin and sighed.

" S—ss sire, I—I sire" he struggled to speak. The snakes weren't just used as torture? They were spies? His orbs enlarged. Then it means...

Xavier trusted his finger deeper into his flesh," Can't you utter ?!"

Suddenly his claws elongated and he slits Hayt's throat effortlessly" You rubbed out your chance. "

" Clear this niche " he commanded, and almost immediately a woman fitted in a black robe that swept the floor gracefully and exposed a good amount of her cleavage as the first three upper buttons were left unbuttoned tight silk black-hued pants appeared in the partition holding a long staff that was opaque. Her blond hair cascaded down her back elegantly and her blue eyes were enthralling enough to bewitch.

Immediately she appeared Xavier brought out a parcel and opened it as brisk as the wind and brought out a white flowery substance. " what do you want now you sly bitch."

" you killed one of my messengers" she replied in a displeased tone.

"There are more?" he frowned. " what the hell do you want!"

" stop using such inappropriate words old man" She strolled forward making her long robe graze the floor magnificently. " you know very well what I seek" She used his phrase and smirked devilishly.

Xavier chuckled calmly "My word you seem to have a passion for an early grave, don't you?"

"If I did, I wouldn't be here." she Returned."Where did you keep the prisoner!" and enlarged her tone, she made her eyes bulge so hard they threatened to fall.

" you want to join your species so bad?" his guards came out from the shadows and pointed their weapons at the blonde-haired woman.

" Tell them to lower their weapon, Xavier" she warned.

" then leave,"

" First I have to collect the prisoner, we had a deal, " Her voice stood dangerous, nonetheless serene. The way she spoke correspondingly rhymed with her movements.

" I changed my mind."

" Haha hahaha a deal is a deal old man, provide to me the prisoner, now!"

" Don't give me that attitude you crazy female! I hate it when someone yells word-for-word confronting me. Trust me Gnivah I won't hesitate in ending you if you endeavor such a stunt furthermore. And just so you know your powers don't work here."

"Don't be ridiculous old man, we both know that uoy blocks all sources of powers, even the most powerful of powers within its range, so your powers are of no use now demon."

" I don't need my powers to defeat you ordinary thing, to me you're nothing but a mere coward."

" Oh is that so? I'd like to see you make an effort" she smirked.

" my, you're something I must say. You're stupidly brave which could lead you to a premature tomb." he Unseathed his sword skilfully

Suddenly, something within the left side of his chest tingled, he touched it and felt a warm sensation spreading through his chest, again. What was that? He began to breathe heavily and his usually cold body instantly became warm. His sword fell from his grip and he tightened his chest. Beads of sweat trickled down his forehead, he looked like he had just finished having a long bath.

Gnivah stood proudly. " Are you that scared of me?"

"What did you do to her?!"

"your mate?" she sounded off with a wide grin. " don't worry about her, she will be just fine if you provide me the prisoner."

" you sly bitch, you had everything planned didn't you?!"

"Well well, look who is finally back to his senses" she smirked. " of course, I knew how you demons roll, so unreliable" She laughed" You're demons after all so I didn't expect any less from you sinful beasts "

Xavier felt like murdering her straight away, he gnashed his teeth so hard. He had just been swindled by Gnivah, she had one of her messengers take Bacillia captive, she was just a distraction, and she did all that on purpose so he would have no other choice than to release Alrak. She has known all along that he wouldn't give up the prisoner easily, so she used Bacillia as bait. And he couldn't rack or sense where she was because of the uoy blocking the proper function of his powers. He tried teleporting but it proved futile.

" Now give me the prisoner."

He knew better than to keep the uoy, this would give Gnivah the upper hand Because of his temporary emotional and mental breakdown.

" Ahhhh" they turned to where the scream was coming from and saw two beasts drop dead on the floor instantly, afterwards, a woman dressed in a green robe was uncovered holding up a large sword that emitted a glow.

"How?"
