The journey led us to the train stations with a private high-speed car that would take us to the Lancaster territory in the north. Upon entering it looked like a large hotel room with about 10 guards and 5 servants. I analyzed them finding that 3 were demons and attached threads to them as the train moved forward.
-The trip will be fast and smooth-Loise
-Don't go raising flags for us-
-You're a bit paranoid, you're safe with the knights and servants of my family-
I casually stretched out my BDSM tying finger ripping out the divine, spiritual energy with {Shadow Devourer} causing the demons to scream in absolute pain. Natalia, Anastasia, Ruby and Tina silently looked at Loise.
-It will be quick and easy-
-Damn demon sons of bitches-
-Watch your vocabulary, you already have a pretty face Loise to go around saying rude things like a vagabond-
Loise turned red.
-It seems that compliments are a weakness for Loise these days-Natalia
-Yes, she is a lady weak to compliments-Anastasia
-Poor thing, it seems that she will be the one who will easily open her legs to anyone who speaks nicely to her-Ruby
-Please leave your vulgar comments behind, especially the last one, I am not that easy-
The demons were tortured obtaining the information that there were demons infiltrated among the Lancaster forces with a good number of them. Loise passed the message to her mother to clean up the previously selected men.
The demons were devoured alive by Rose who entangled them taking them to my shadow.
-I'm sorry this happened-Loise
-Don't worry, I don't find it strange that demons abound in places that have status, authority and influence, it's easier to cause chaos, death and destruction if they reach positions of power and bring in their members or create slaves-
-Fuu, Dante I hope this doesn't ruin the experience of your visit-
-Don't worry, killing demons is obtaining divine resources of the death element, the more demons the better, the more divine resources-
-It's such a recycling and terrifying thought-
-Demons must be afraid of you-
-Tina, killing demons doesn't affect you-
-Why would it affect me?
-... Well-
-I'm not a demon, I'm a different race, don't classify us in the same type, I get negative energy by refining the emotions of the demons captured by Dante, I love the idea of Dante killing demons, I get stronger-
-Okay-
-Let's rest from the trip-
We sat in the dining room letting the servants give us snacks, it was a long trip of 5 hours, so we were just talking, although the oldest one who spoke was Ruby who was a little more outgoing. We arrived at the city of the Lancaster family being greeted by Loise's mother in an expensive car.
Loise's mother was the mature version of Loise developing all her feminine features in the appearance of 25 in a white and gold dress, long pink hair down to her knees.
-Wow, your mother is extremely beautiful-Ruby
-Too beautiful-Tina
-My mother is an Amazon princess, the Amazons are made of taking the best genes to have the best descendants in terms of power, appearance and race, my mother being royalty her lineage is the best of the best and I come from her-Loise said proudly.
-My girl let me hug you-The mother went to her hugging her.
-Mommy-Loise hugged her mother smiling.
Ruby made a painful expression.
-You are thinking of your mother-
-… Hmmp-
-You must be Dante Black, nice to meet you, I am Lala Lancaster, wife of Frederick Lancaster and duchess of these lands-
-Greetings Mrs. Lancaster, nice to meet you, Loise certainly inherited the beauty and charm of her mother-
-Hehehe, thank you-
-Did you take care of the demons we sent to you?
-We captured them considering that obtaining their memories could help us gather information-
-No problems, although I would like to request a reward-
-I have no problem paying you for your work-
I stretch out my hand using [Shadow Mastery] to give her the appearance of Ruby's mother and activate my watch using the World Hunter map with {Unlimited Vision} finding a point where she is still in the empire.
-This woman is Ruby's mother, she was practically sold as contraband merchandise, cutting off her tail, wings, arms and legs to use her as a sex toy, she is quite far away, could you send your men to locate her? She is in this position on the map, that is the only thing I will charge as payment for helping her, but I need you to deliver her to me as soon as possible, what do you think? -
-Well, Mr. Dante, do a demon cleansing in my home and I will take care of fulfilling your demand in the best way possible, is that okay with you?
-Excellent-
We get in the car and Ruby looks at me.
- Dante, how do you know where my mother is?
- I can only guess her approximate location with my powers, if she's alive or dead, it's just a matter of pure luck-
- Could you have done it before?
- No, just by chance I had enough power to achieve it, let's see if the Lancaster family is useful to do such a simple errand or I will have to intervene directly with my hands to locate her, keep an open mind for any outcome- In reality I thought Ruby's mother was dead and these months had not been my priority at all. Not to mention that {Limitless Vision} is not exactly omnipotent, just locating the position of that woman left me without energy.
- Thank you very much, I'll be prepared-
- Don't worry- I said smiling, caressing her head.
Ruby smiles cutely snuggling under my wing.
-Dante, you seem to be a kind person-
-I am kind and benevolent with my allies, cruel and merciless with my enemies-
-Well, I promise to find the girl's mother, if you help me with these demons-
-Sure-
We arrived at a palace located in the center of the city.
-Do all nobles have palaces?
-Perhaps only the imperial family, dukes, marquises, counts, marquises, barons and knights in charge of certain lands generally have mansions, they would not have the necessary resources to maintain a palace-
-Isn't it a pain to move around in such a big house? -
-You get used to it, apart from considering that most of the officials, knights stay within the palace territory, it is important to have a space to accommodate them-
-I understand-
We arrived at the palace where they decided to give us a tour of the mansion detecting the demons with their slaves, while moving us they were telling us some things like the decorations, collections, showing us how the knights trained. Although it was an excuse to explore the servants, those who were demons, Tina's horns lit up and I personally captured them if they were in my range of action. Those that I was not sure I could deal with, Mrs. Lancaster just grabbed them by the neck at high speed immobilizing them with brute force breaking them.
We met a man who looked like his 20s similar to Mr. Frederick and another Loise with short hair down to her shoulders fighting with halberds at high speeds.
-That's my 1st son Loren and my 2nd daughter Laila-
- Are they twins?
-No, my daughter Laila is 15 and my oldest son is 20-
-How old are you?
-That question is never asked to a lady, I was magically stuck at the eternal 18 and I will never get out of that age, I will die being beautiful forever- Lala smiled without smiling.
I pointed at all the demons and Mrs. Lancaster ended up throwing rays of holy light at them that turned into arrows.
- Do you have the same ability as the empress?
-When you are a rank 10, you learn to cause AOE attacks to large numbers of monsters or enemies to defend your territories, that divine art of [Holy Rain] is not something unknown in the community, I understand-
The attacks clearly made all the guards stunned watching their companions slowly transform into monsters. I took the opportunity to stretch my threads to attract them to my position on a mountain sending them to illusions with Linda obtaining all the information while Linda devoured them to accelerate their evolution process. Of the 6,000 workers, more than 1,500 were demons and demonic slaves.
All the videos of her memories were sent to Mrs. Lancaster's private number.
-Everyone, go back to your daily activities as if nothing happened-Lala said coldly to her knights.
-Mr. Dante, how about we stop in the garden to take a break with snacks-
-Fortunately, I have already eliminated the demons in the kitchen so that I know that they will not have poison-
--------------
The Lancaster family had a beautiful garden full of flowers and fruit trees as part of the gardening and cultivation hobby. They brought us tea and cookies for the table.
-Dante Black, thank you very much for helping us finish off those demons on our land-
-Thank me with actions and not words, Miss Lancaster, show me your sincerity and appreciation-I said calmly while eating cookies.
Mrs. Lancaster snaps her fingers and a woman appears from her shadow.
-Show her the information-
I take out all the information on Ruby since she separated from her mother and the approximate position.
-Send a team to look for her, including her corpse, they are allowed to use air transport, but I want that woman yesterday, send a team of 50 to locate her, do not let me look bad in front of my benefactor-
-Understood my lady-The woman disappears in the shadows retreating.
-My team will be looking for the woman now, considering the distance and flight time, it will take about 6 hours to reach the area shown on the map, it may take hours to locate them, so wait a few days-
-Ok, I will take those days to locate demons within your territory and I will leave you some flowers capable of locating them more easily and a system to locate them that way you do not have to resort to me in the capital, is that okay with you? -
-Excellent, I would not complain at all about your little help-
I activate my shadow and make signals to Tina.
-Tina, let's put flowers and locate bad guys in this big city-
-Understood, master-
Tina and I went out into the shadows.
-Tina can help me detect demons and criminals because, just like demons, they detect negative energy. I would recommend that if you manage to meet the asura race, try to capture them and let me know. I could teach you a way so that they don't become evil beings-
-Why are you sharing the information with me?
-Tina told me that her community is very pacifist and kind by nature, that they even avoid causing each other harm so as not to enter berserker states hurting their loved ones, however, their public opinion and similarities with demons practically make them a hated, despised and hunted race, if they saw the benefits of using them to detect demons, many figures like you who have status, authority, territories to take care of, could benefit by improving their public image, giving work and utility to said communities instead of giving them a reckless hunt-
-I understand, I will be considering it, if I find people of the asura race, will I contact you? Does that seem okay to you?-
-Excellent, it would be wonderful if I found them, preferably children, I cannot assure that the adults are suitable, since they can naturally be evil, that negative energy can turn them into villains-
-I will keep that in mind, Dante Black, can I know something? -
-If it is within my capabilities, I will answer you-
-Aren't you interested in my daughter Loise?
-Why are you bringing up the subject?
-I'm just curious-
-To be honest, your daughter is very beautiful and lovely, considering that I ended up like her mother or better, there is nothing to complain about in appearance, but currently I do not know her enough to get emotionally attached, certainly taking emotional responsibility for a woman is not one of my priorities but my growth and development as a divine hunter to take care of my own responsibilities and obligations of my dependents, if that were not enough I am a guy who is getting into several people who have emotional attachment to me and vice versa, if she wants to throw her daughter at me she must be aware of the man who is entrusting her to her and above all things she must do it by her own will being something that she wants from her heart and not because of responsibilities or obligations of her parents, since I consider it sad to be with someone you do not want to be with-
-I understand, although you are quite direct-
-It is better to be honest-
- Wouldn't you leave your girls for my daughter if I offered you the benefit of belonging to a great family of the empire?
-I wouldn't leave them-
-You didn't even doubt it-
-There was nothing that could make me doubt, if a man abandons the women who give him their time, care, love and attention with dedication and devotion, just for one who offers him the same holes and with more responsibilities, obligations being from a big family, it would only be a loss, would you trust your daughter to a man who abandons his women just for the benefits he can get? –
Mrs. Lancaster smiles looking at me.
-I like you, get along with my daughter please, it would be nice to have a boy as talented, skilled and powerful as you-
-Sure, whatever you say-
