Chapter 20 - Soul snatcher

" What is it, " I asked and her face turned pale

Fei said that he wanted Sone if he was to help City Lord Zang Len, they were going to arrest Sone in a state of panic.

Fei slashed the City Lord with the sword of the demon abyss, if the City Lord was not treated in time he could lose his soul realm or even die, this matter would create panic in the entire city if it gets out, so only the Lords were told of the treat

Fei was captured but his aura turned way too frightening and he said that he will help the City Lord only if Sone is brought to him

" Lady Zang, " Mika bowed her head seeing the figure in front of her " what may bring you to our humble shop," she asked,

Yumi only smiled, she had not recognized her but she would like to let her know her identity but this wasn't the time

" Master Zangi wants to see both of you in the City Lord's Mansion " Yumi replied

Mika was ready to go, if their class were starting early it would be a amazing, they will also get their fast allowance and she can finally help her sister

", we shall leave when you please " I answered and she handed me a void ring and amour, a little protection, iron type of defense, just in case, even tho Fei had been locked up, they still had to keep their guards up,

The way he got locked up made no sense, h walked in and handed himself in but even under interrogation he still laughed, not a bit of fear in his eyes, the only thing he said was if you want your master to live, bring Sone Chi

" So what happened to city Lord," I asked once we were in the carriage, even the silver masters that protected us didn't know the news so she had to whisper it in my ear, and I understood the danger City Lord was in, he had only one day to live, with only one slash of the demonic sword the effects are deadly to any one below Gold level and had weaken effects for people above

" So it's my life for his " I coldly said after she explained and her gaze turned frightened, she never wanted it to be this way but she had no choice

" it is more than that," she tried to explain" everyone is at risk if we lose him " she whispered

If the City Lord dies the city will be in chaos, and with the war erupting between the cities, many lives would be lost before the thin balance returns

" I will face Fei, " I responded mowing what am going against, there is one demon that wields the sword of the abyss if he is out it will cause much more damage than anyone thought.

My soul realm is still extremely vulnerable to any attacks but can hold for a minute or two, hopefully, enough time to prepare plan B

We arrived at the mansion and hurriedly walked through the building, the panic clear in every step we took.

The City Lord's room was filled with his brothers, as he lay on the bed with soulless black eyes

" Master Zangi here he is," Yumi said immediately we entire, she ran to her father's side and sat on the bed,

" it is a pity that we have to see each other again in such circumstances " I greeted the Grand Master, all eyes turned to me and Mika, gloomy expression with t are in each of them

" Sone, I apologize, but we have no other choice " The Grandmaster responded a moist eyes

" But what did you do " I walked to the man in the bed " the infection hasn't spread to any vital pasts

" What do you mean " one of his brothers looked at me, Master Zang Weng, the second born and head of the guards

" The abyss sword could take a trade, his soul for something else, if I could get my hands on it, " I said and my face turned cold again, Soul snatcher wouldn't let that stupid sword out of his grasp if it meant losing another body for it

" We don't have the sword, " Master Weng said and another idea popped up

" Then let's trade his life for mine, but I had a backup plan, even after that demon gets me he won't let your master live, so " I explained to them the pan and was on my way to see the demon, it was chained up in the City Court, they chained it but couldn't move it, it was waiting for me,

Once I opened the door a murderous aura hit me like a tsunami, this was a soul snatcher alright,

" soul snatcher, I thought I would never see you again " the name soul snatcher rattled the beast a little only a few people knew him as soul snatcher

" Who are you " his voice shook the entire court house

I let out a small laugh " sadly, you don't remember me, after all the fans we had, I thought you would talk with respect " I walked forward the room had candles all around but they glowed with a black flame

" Sone Chi, it can't be you again " all the flames went up and his eyes turned darker than the surroundings " you are the one who put me in that goddam prison" his voice made the chains rattle and flames go crazy bursting over and over again but that display never scared me a little instead my lips curled up

" ding! ding! that is me so...." and before I was done, the macrurous aura threw me through the door, I fell through the ground,

" You are going to die " his demonic voice darkened with rage, it was going to go to the heavens to look for him but I saved it from the trouble. It used to lightning-fast speed to hit me before I could see it, Master Zangi who was standing behind with backup was thrown further away. Before I could recover from the hit the demon had already launched another attack, the chains that held it all snapped with ease not slowing down his attack even a little, he had a punch that pushed me even deeper into the ground, and only one more hit and I dead.

It had gotten extremely strong for a demon that had been out for three days, it had to de the one killing the people on the trip, and with all the people that fought it only got stronger but I had a weakness that I was going to exploit

" You have gotten weak Sone, I will enjoy things, actually," he pulled out the Abass sword " I will keep your soul for eternity " when his sword raised his sword to make a strike a beam of laver fell on him, and instantly solidified

" This isn't good "I started to run seeing what was happening, this was only adding wood to the fire, the demon was at a silver rank but with this, it would reach gold

! BOOM!

before I was a meter away the rock of laver exploded and the environment turned dark with his flames surrounding me

" Lord Sone, running for his life, was a site " he laughed, I clenched my fists, I was supposed to be angered by him because it will only strengthen him but it was enough running

Am tired of running " I defeated you once I will do it again " I activated my soul realm but instantly fell on the ground, my soul realm was bursting the pain was unbarring

" I think this is the end of the line Sone " with its lightening speed it was already at me with the sword of Abyss
