Riley and Seraphine entered the castle, their steps echoing in the grand hallways. I was in the throne room, deep in discussion with Aurelia. We looked up as Riley and Seraphine approached, our expressions turning serious when we saw their grim faces.
"We have some news," Riley said, her voice steady but urgent.
My eyes narrowed. "What happened?"
Seraphine and Riley took turns explaining what they had overheard and the fight that followed. I listened intently, my concern growing with each passing moment. Aurelia stood beside me, her frown deepening as the details unfolded.
When they finished, I let out a long breath. "This is worse than I thought. A self-proclaimed Demon King with the power to turn humans into demons... This could lead to a full-scale war."
Aurelia nodded, her expression grim. "And if he's as powerful as they say, we'll need all the help we can get."
