Chapter 22 - 22

Abhay was stunned. He haven't even joined the academy yet and this town is going down.

'I don't have much time left. Since this place will be immune, I can just call everyone back and wait till everything's settled. '

After coming out of his room,

"Bob".

" Yes,master ".

" Call everyone back. Everyone. And take this money and go buy atleast six months if food for everyone. The more you can get in one hour, buy it. Come back early. "

"Yes".

****

Elena was sitting in the mansion library, reading the books abhay told her to go through.

'Elena?'

'Yes'.

'Come back here. Take all the books, equipment or whatever you can get your hands in one hour'.

'Yes'.

***

Bob did as he was told. He bought food for all the people here that can be fed till a year.

All the subordinates also returned.

"Master".

Elena entered the hall, then stood in front of abhay.

She handed him a ring.

Abhay looked inside only to be dazzled.

There were a few thousand books inside.

Apparently, Elena has Sneakily emptied the whole library of city Lord mansion.

She couldn't get her hands on equipments from the mansion as the inventory was only accessible to some people only, and she obviously wasn't one of them.

To make up for it, she went back to her house and emptied the inventory there. She even took all the money from the treasury.

'A loyal companion indeed'.

He smiled mischievously. He knew it's all because of his hypnosis but the feeling of having a loyal companion to a guy who's always been single is still new.

He wanted to forget about everything and just quickly do the deed with Elena but he controlled himself.

'There's no hurry. We all will be staying here for quite some while now. I can have all the fun I want'.

A sudden red mist erupted from the mansion, quickly engulfing the surrounding area. Whoever who gets in contact with the mist falls in a temporary coma.

The mist was slowly spreading throughout the town. With a burst boom, a blast was heard bt people who haven't come in contact with the mist.

They all simultaneously looked at the source of sound. A huge shadow increasing in size every second was rising from the centre of the town.

The mist was completely covering the shadow hiding its appearance. Not long after that, the mist completely submerged the town, leaving no one conscious.

The guy who was imitating the Lord, saw everything unfold from the underground chamber. He took out a talisman from his pocket, activated it and closed both of the doors. There was a little magic circle below his feet, and a fresh corpse of a spirit fix in a corner.

The shadow was waiting all this while to absorb enough demonic energy to initiate his attack. It didn't had much time and the mist releasing from his body will soon attract some big shots.

In his prime, it can easily slaughter these so called big shots but for now, he have to lay low. His plan was nearly perfect. He can't come here himself so a summoning ceremony was arranged. Materials were prepared to quickly restore some strength as hurriedly as possible.

He'll restore some strength, kill everyone in one go, capture all their souls to perform a custom ritual that wasn't in action for years.

A remote town like this was perfect for this as it'll take those big shots some time to reach here, enough for him to complete his mission.

His power kept rising, rising, still rising and then

Boom, kachaw

With one swift flick of his wrist, a power wave erupted. In one fell swoop, everyone died. He took out a pouch from his pocket, opened it and then closed it after a few seconds.

This is what would have been seen by the naked eye. In the few seconds the pouch was open, thousands of souls entered inside, captured.

He then crushed something he held in his other hand and disappeared just like that. The impersonator came out at this time, saw that the mission was complete, quickly left.

After around a few minutes, three powerful auras can be felt coming towards here.

They did some research, found the cabin and corpse of the fox and realized what actually happened.

After looking around for a while, they got the complete picture of the chaos that occurred here. They decided to leave this matter to the Royal family of tempest kingdom.

They eventually left.

Abhay, who was sitting inside his room, using the newly received surveillance system. He can see any place in the town as long as it's in the range of this underground maze.

Since this maze covered around one-fifth of the town, his surveillance was spreaded to one-fifth of the town.

He saw the demon kill everyone, the small guy leave and also overheard the conversation between those three.

Their reinforcements will arrive in about thirty minutes to clean up this place and deep investigation.

So he have thirty minutes to clean up the leftovers of the town himself.

He immediately pulled up tama who was sitting on her knees beside his chair, her hands and mouth moving in a rhythm. He placed her on the chair, wore his pants and walked out.

"Bob?".

He called out Bob and gave him the order. Clean up this town completely in fifteen minutes. Food, ornaments, artifacts everything.

They all then divided into teams,

One team went to clean up everything on the market and black market.

One to clean up the noble households and last to clean up all the big or small houses and shops.

Even though ralph town wasn't very big, but to actually cover it all with twelve hundred people in fifteen minutes is basically impossible.

So the priority were market area and noble households.

In fifteen minutes, they completely cleaned up the market and noble households.

How?

He first sent Bob to go to beyond store and get all the rings there. There were around five thousand rings found in there alone, the other shops are left yet.

With rings in both hands, they all just took everything that seemed expensive or valuable.

With this efficiency, they cleaned up one third of town just like that. They took all the food as well. Due to space laws in the rings, food does not spoil inside them.

With this much food, they can easily survive in here for a year. The amount of money obtained was also too good. Counting the books, artifacts and other things, well counting is hard so I'll just add it later.
