Chereads / Demon In The Apocalypse / Chapter 21 - Escapee

Chapter 21 - Escapee

Bifrons had used his mana to activate the tube below his feet as he disappeared

Agma hit air

'Good' he thought as he looked at the skeletons and rushed at them

******

Aways away Bifrons appeared and started flying? Levitating? Traveling by air towards Lucifer's castle

It took days to reach it with Bifrons weak body and low mana from teleporting but he arrived in front of the castle

^Gulp^

In front of the gates Bifrons hesitated before knocking and being let in by a squad of death knights

Going through the castle filled with horrific art and knights Bifrons who regularly interacted with corpses started to feel uneasy

Arriving in front of a large door at the top of the castle the knight yelled

"Master there is a noble that is here to see you" the knight said through the door while kneeling

The door opened on its own as Bifrons saw the dark haired young man with red horns and a tail sitting at a ornate desk

"What is so important that you needed to come yourself Bifrons?" The man asked power eminating from his voice

While kneeling Bifrons started to speak to him about the traitor

"Sir Lucifer the traitor came and attacked my manor, I barely escaped alive. He is formidable and from his features he seems to be a demon prince as well" Bifrons explained

"Oh really? Do explain" Lucifer asked curious at how Bifrons would likely lie

"Sir he had horns blacker then ash, a tail with the same color. And my telekinesis didn't effect him at all" Bifrons said

Then Lucifer reached out his will to peer into Bifrons head to see the truth

"…" Silence

"We know where he is so we shall organize an attack force. We will be bringing all other nobles here, this is where we shall mount a defence against this rouge prince" Lucifer ordered

******

Back with Agma a few days earlier he was standing on a sand like platform

'Bifrons should be getting reinforcements from other nobles now, so I can just go after them in one fell swoop and get an actual fight out of them' He thought ignorant to Bifrons going to a prince

He decided to rest a few days to wait for Bifrons to organize a few nobles then he would start heading out again

******

At Lucifer's castle a meeting was taking place

There were 9 nobles and one prince equaling ten in total

"Why have you called us sir" One noble asked clearing a bit annoyed at being called on such short notice

"It seems the rouge prince has already killed andromalius" Lucifer said startleing all nobles in the room

"Are you sure there is a rogue prince, and are you sure they got Andromalius?" Another noble asked

"Yes, according to Bifrons he already has started to attack. That fact along with him being a prince comes from his surviving the encounter with him" Lucifer said

"How would Bifrons survive against a demon prince?" A shorter looking noble asked freezing Lucifer in his tracks

'Why did I not think of that, either he is a fool or he wanted Bifrons to escape, but what does that mean, what could he get out of him-'

Then it hit Lucifer
