The Vermax Empire is one of the Fourteen Higher Nations of Humanity, The Fourteen Higher Nations are the Greatest Nations of Humanity that holds most of the Strongest Huntsmen to be known.

The Vermax Empire exists at the Western Province and they are neighbors of the Zullin Empire!

And there are about to pass on judgements to one of their most ruthless Enemies, The S-Class Assasin: The Deathmaker.....An Infamous Assasin who is responsible for the Death of the Emperor's Younger Brother.

💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀

Captain Rudeus and the Princess Lily were Welcomed back into the Empire after The Empire were informed on what happened, Their Battle Suits is crafted to send Informations to the Empire.

The Barriers casted to prevent demons was removed so that the Demon corpses will be allowed into the Empire, The Deathmaker was dragged in chains into the Empire while the Princess and Captain Rudeus were on horses.

Recognizing the Deathmaker, The Soldiers were all happy.

There are thousands of People waving at the Captain and the Princess while booing and throwing things at the Deathmaker, Shown to the people....The Deathmaker sighed softly when he smiled.

" It's quite a suprise to see that not only does the Nobles hate me, Even the Lesser people despises me as well " The Deathmaker said while being dragged, He is chained to the horse of the Captain.

So the more the Horse moves, The more he is being dragged without mercy and the Princess has been quiet since the capture of the Deathmaker, She couldn't even utter a single word, She continued riding her horse.

" You are suprised? How can someone who killed The Emperor's Brother be suprised that the People of Vermax hates him? Prince Aiden was a Champion of The Vermax Empire and you killed him "

" You deserve whatever punishment you will be receiving " An Huntsman spoke out when he whipped the Deathmaker from his horse, The Deathmaker sighed when he slowly turned towards the Princess!

Their eyes met but she quickly turned away, The Deathmaker chuckled softly while he kept on being dragged as he is being spat on while the Huntsmen of the Squadron were being celebrated by the people.

" I wonder what my fate will be in this Empire " The Deathmaker said when he giggled softly!

He was taken with the Squadron to to Royal Capital, Captain Rudeus came down from his horse together with the Princess after arriving at the Royal Palace, Meanwhile the Deathmaker was surrounded by dozens of Soldiers.

The Doors leading into the Royal Palace opened up, A Masculine Figure stepped out of the Castle while dressed in his Royal outfit, Brown haired with longs beards, He stared at the Princess when he smiled.

" Princess Lily, It's good to see you in good shape, We were informed about the Incident and we are sorry we weren't able to send forces to protect you " The Man spoke out with a warm smile on his face.

" Lord Rivers, I'm happy to be back at the Capital again..... Although Demon Hunting was quite fun " Princess Lily said with smiles on his face, The Man who stood before them is The Lord Rivers.

One of the Emperor's Trusted Lords and A Retired Huntsman!!

" That's good to hear and as for you Captain Rudeus, Good job for guarding the Princess and Exterminating those demons, And as for bringing the Deathmaker to us, You will be rewarded handsomely " Lord Rivers spoke out.

" My Lord, It's an honor to serve the Empire, I only want to be the one in charge of Protecting the Princess " Captain Rudeus said as he bowed his head before Lord Rivers when Lord Rivers careesed his beards.

" You seek to be incharge of the Princess protection huh? Well we will see about that but first, We will be locking up the Deathmaker, He is the bastard who killed Prince Aiden " Lord Rivers uttered.

" My My....I really am in trouble ain't I? I wonder why, I simply killed Aiden because I was paid to, Is there anything bad with that? " The Deathmaker asked when he received a blow to the face by a soldier.

" Who asked you to speak? You are nothing but a dead man walking "

The Soldier spoke out with pride as he stood before the Deathmaker, The Deathmaker sighed after receiving the blow to the face, He remained calm while everyone watched to see what is going to happen.

Before the Deathmaker was brought to the Vermax Empire, The Empire became flooded with Active Huntsmen everywhere, Soldiers who were also granted Artifacts made up of demon skins, Everywhere is armed.

" I'm a dead man walking? You seems to have forgotten why they call me the Deathmaker huh? Do you so wish to die? " The Deathmaker asked when his eyes glowed brightly green, Even while in chains.

The Soldier who punched him coughed out bloods from his mouth as a large hole appeared on his stomach, The Soldier was killed in an instant while a large hole on his stomach and bloods gushing out of his body.

The Soldier's body fell heavily on the ground.

" You really are the Deathmaker, I hope the Emperor gives you a worthy sentence, Take him to the Lyxx, He is a Maximum Level Criminal after all " Lord Rivers gave out the orders and the Deathmaker was dragged.

Princess Lily watched as the Deathmaker was dragged away by countless soldiers!!

" Princess Lily, Come in with me.....Your Father is waiting for you " Lord Rivers said with smiles on his face, Princess Lily nodded when she made her way into the Royal Castle of the Vermax Empire.

Followed by Captain Rudeus and Lord Rivers with a few highly ranked Huntsmen and Soldiers, Princess Lily was greeted by the Guards and the Maids since she is the only Princess of the Vermax Empire.

A Sister with four older brothers who are all interested in the throne of their Father!!

" Lord Rivers, Where is father? " Princess Lily asked as she slowly took off her gloves, She is still on her battle suit, Her Suit Specially created for her since it was crafted from the body of an intelligent Demon.

" Your father sits on his throne, He is waiting for you with your brothers, They are all excited to Welcome you back " Lord Rivers said when Princess Lily smiled calmly, She is excited to see her father once again.

She was able to match the battle suit but is yet to understand the powers the Suit holds since she is still a Huntsman in training, She made her way into the Throne room of the Emperor who governs the Empire.

She walked into the Throne room when she stood before her father!!

" Greetings to you father, Your Daughter stands before you " Princess Lily spoke out when she fell on her knees and bowed her head before her father, The Emperor...And the Emperor slowly rose up from his throne.

Dressed in his Royal robe....He slowly climbed down the altars!!

The Four Royal Princes of the Vermax Empire were present with other Ministers of the Vermax Empire, Emperor Argilac DelRoy of the Vermax Empire stood before his daughter when he smiled brightly.

" You can ride my beautiful princess " Emperor Argilac spoke out when Princess Lily rose up to her feets and in that Second, The Emperor pulled her to him when he hugged her passionately with smiles on his face.

" Welcome my beautiful daughter, It gladdens me to see you are ok.....I was worried when I learnt that an Intelligent Demon attacked you guys while you were on your Demon hunting program " The Emperor spoke out.

" Father, There is nothing to be worried about.....Captain Rudeus is a quite capable Huntsman after all, If I am to join the Huntsmen....I would like to be under him father " Princess Lily said with smiles on her face.

" I see, So the Captain was quite a capable man huh? Very well then...If you pass your Huntsmen's Assessment Test then you will be able to join his Squadron and be under his Control " Emperor Argilac said.

" Thank you father, What about the Deathmaker? He saved my life " Princess Lily asked.

" I'm aware of that already Princess, The Deathmaker saved your life but he is the one who killed my little brother so he must be punished, Because he saved your life.....He won't receive the Death Penalty but trust me my dear little bird, He will surely be judged " Emperor Argilac spoke out with pride as he careesed the chin of his beloved daughter, He slowly turned towards Lord Rivers.

" Rivers, Where is the Deathmaker? " Emperor Argilac asked.

" Your grace, He is currently locked up in the Lyxx, Awaiting his trial, The Lyxx is the Special Prison Facility for people of his level, Even though he is an S-Class Criminal, He won't be able to escape " Lord Rivers said.

" Very good then.....Have him watched and starved, I need him to suffer before I pass on a judgement to him....The Assasin Guild will be silenced once their champion is destroyed " Emperor Argilac declared.

Meanwhile: Lyxx

The Deathmaker was thrown into the deepest cage of the Lyxx as he is being watched always with Strong Huntsmen dedicated to watching him, They are permitted to kill him if he tries to break out.

The Deathmaker sighed calmly as he sat down on the ground, Staring at his cell when he chuckled softly, He remained calmly while sitted on the ground, The Chains used to bind him was already removed.

But the Prison Facility is flooded with heat sensors and movements detectors, Surveillances watching him every movements in Lyxx and it's also self destructive, Everything is prepared to hinder him.

" So Vermax has been preparing everything to hold me down huh? But they have been underestimating me from the very start, To them.....The Name Deathmaker is an Assasin Title but they are wrong "

" There is one reason why I'm called the Deathmaker "

The Deathmaker spoke out when he caused a card to appear on his hand, Revealing his next target when he Squinted his eyes, The Picture of Princess Lily appeared on the card with her name on it.

There is one reason he chose to be captured by the Huntsmen of The Vermax Empire instead of Killing them all at once, And this is the reason!!

" Princess Lily? Well she was kinda cute tho but no hard Feelings, It's my line of work " The Deathmaker stated when he slowly took off his Eye-patch, Revealing his Glowing bright left red eye with a cross mark!

" You are just another kill of mine.....Princess!! "
