Chapter 4 - The Gifters

When he heard the words from behind, the masked man jumped onto the pole above him, his jump was so high that it looked like it was flying. The masked man then looked down and it was Geath.

"No wonder it's hard for me to get you, it turns out you're a gifter, which demon gave you power" Said Geath.

Then the masked man tried to escape through the hole in the roof, then Geath tried to follow him by running through the exit. Bianca, who saw Geath running outside shocked and stood up to follow Geath. Geath chased the masked man who escaped by jumping from tree to tree, Geath chased him by land while looking up. The hunt was aimed at the group of residents who were there.

Then the masked man jumped down the street and into the crowd, it was Geath started to approach him and almost caught him. Masked man then took off his coat and his mask tried to blend in with the crowd.

"Please, I'm being chased by a demon who wants to kill me" Said Masked man shouted to the crowd.

Hearing that, the crowd then turned towards Geath and started to look angry, then the crowd began to approach Geath, which made it difficult to catch up with the masked man.

"You stupid demon, don't you have a heart" Said Other Person.

"Damn demon" Said Someone else

"Just kill him" another word from the crowd.

"Don't disturb humans, leave our world " Some People angrily said.

Geath who couldn't move, then lost track of the masked man, the crowd's attacks on Geath continued, but Geath ignored it. Bianca who had been chasing Geath, saw him being attacked by the crowd. Bianca tried to run toward Geath and then shouted "Stop".

Hearing Bianca's screams, the crowd suddenly stopped and looked at Bianca.

"Why do you guys attack someone innocent" Said Bianca, standing in front of Geath.

"He's a demon, he chases innocent people with killing intent" Said Someone in the crowd.

"Then which person wants to be killed by him?" Ask Bianca.

"That, where is that person earlier" Said Someone, then the crowd looked for the person earlier.

"You guys just released a serial killer just because he's human you protect him, pathetic" Said Geath with a flat face.

"Shut up you demon, you have no right to say he is a serial killer. Are you a cop? You're just Disgraced Blood" said the crowd trying to justify himself.

"Your character hasn't changed from a hundred years ago. I'm a Senior Investigator from Government" said Geath then showed his badge.

After seeing Geath's badge, the crowd slowly left Geath but still made fun of Geath. Bianca who had been tensed standing in front of Geath now calmed down and fell.

"Thank god, they finally left. Are you okay?" Said Bianca.

"yes I'm fine, thanks for helping me" said Geath, who put his badge back in and cleaned his suit.

"I saw you are getting out of the ride over there, but I didn't see what you were after. Who exactly is it" Said Bianca who pointed to the ride.

"Looks like he's a gifter, no wonder that he can move his victim's body without anyone noticing" Said Geath.

"Gifter? What is it? This is the first time i heard that" Said Bianca then stood up.

"I can't explain it here, looks like he's still watching us, let's go to a safer place" said Geath then took the masked man's robe and mask.

Then Geath and Bianca go to his office, on way he called Barbatos to meet him in his room because he had something important to discuss and get in touch with Bianca. when he arrived in front of the office there was already a barbatos waiting for him and went straight to the two of them.

"Follow me we can't discuss anything in the office, looks like the government from the human side came to the office with a strange reason, hold my hand" said Barbatos while handing out his hands.

"Teleport: dungeons of demons" Barbatos recites the spell displacement to the destination.

they also moved to a place that Barbatos thought was safe, that place was the first place the demons would pass before leaving or entering the demon world, a kind of immigration room and only demons and humans who got permission could go there.

"This place is the safest of all the places in the world, so what do you want to talk about? to have to leave the meeting sooner" Said Barbatos then sit down.

"This is Bianca the person I mentioned on the phone, she is the person who was targeted for murder, I went to look for her because of the vision of Lord Naberius, and this is the item from the murderer that he left while running away" Said Geath.

"is there no more information you have regarding him?" Ask Barbatos.

"I can't get much information but I'm sure he's a gifter" Said Geath and gave the seat to Bianca.

"Gifter? no wonder it's very difficult to track him, who is the demon who helped the human. Damn traitor, I will not let him go" said Barbatos then took her phone and contacted someone "bring me all the list files for anyone who went out and entered the demon world one year ago, quickly".

then Bianca whispered to Geath "what is a gifter? I asked but you didn't answer".

"OK, I'll tell you. During the repair period a hundred years ago, the demons tried to clean up the earth, and they looked some people tried to help them even though they didn't have the strength but they tried their best. the demons were then compassionate and kind enough to lend power and the person who receives that power is called a gifter, but some humans who felt they had high power were jealous and asked the demons to give them power, when they asked why he answered to help mankind, but he forgot that the demon he was dealing, a demon who has the power to read a person's mind so that the demons are a little angry, and because a human who is given the power to ask the demons to give his power to that person make demons anger and changes his spell, he gains in power at the cost of his life within one year after the gift. strength" Said Geath.

"I see, but why did he ask for a list for the past year? It could be that he gave power much longer than that" Said Bianca with a curious face.

"The reason is that there is a child from a gifter whose father is getting sick and only ten days left before his soul is finally taken, he is angry with the demons level ten and steals the spell book stored in this place then asks for an exchange. Unfortunately, he accidentally dropped the book into the fire which set the book on fire, the demons who negotiated with him were angry and brought him to the demon world to receive eternal punishment, because in the world this book just one and doesn't have a copy, the princes of hell asked all the demons to write down the spells they remember, unfortunately for the power-giving spell they remember only the spell with the curse, so the spell that was rewritten and replaced the previous spell, so if the murderer is a really gifter then he only has one year to live, so Chief Barbatos asks for a list for the last one year" said Geath.

"okay I see, so what do we do now?" Ask Bianca.

"Waiting" Answer Geath.
