Demonic energies clouded the space, Kyle could feel the pressure in the air, a single demonic spell was able to distort space itself, He focused his attention on the window, staring at what exists outside his room.
The demonic energies slowly vanished!
" One of the things I learnt in this world after my reincarnation is the fact that the two supreme religions, Zudaism and Pentagram are at war with eachother, the two oppositions cannot co-exist in a single area "
" Wherever there are demonic worshipers, Zudaists will surely attack them, and the same goes with the demonic worshipers, I simply threw a bait by releasing a certain amount of my demonic energies "
" This will agitate those repulsive Zudaists "
" Even if they are trying to keep a low profile, as long as there are some demonic worshipers within this land, They will surely go ballistic and when they do, I can see the perfect reason to wipe them out "
Kyle uttered and he giggled softly!
A trap, but not only a trap but a perfect one, only the Crossword Dukedom retains it's neutrality in the Empire, the royal capital of the Empire is already being swayed by the divine light of the Churches.
If the church of Cancer goes ballistic within the neutral land, the Duke has the authority to wipe them out without a single trace....if he doesn't kill them with his hands.
There's someone else who will do that for him, eitherway....they die!!
[Meanwhile]
" Huh? was...was...was that demonic energy? " Sister Juri questioned, turning her gaze towards the direction where she sensed the demonic energies first, since it's scattered....it's hard to trace it to the source.
But she did effortlessly!
" Yes, that's definitely the demonic energy, but to think there are demonic worshipers who would casually unleash their energies within the Empire that stands against them, they are quite bold, aren't they? "
A voice was heard within the vast darkness, the Zudaists who stayed in the room were stunned, the sounds of approaching footsteps was heard and he walked into the scene, with a smile seen on his face.
The Zudaists breathed a sigh of relief, they fell on their knees, bowing their heads before the mysterious figure!
" Greetings to you....we the believers of {Cancer} bows before thee, senior paladin, Rashmi! " They voiced out in unison, paying their respects to him with their heads bowed, Rashmi sighed out loud.
He turned his head, facing the curtain which covered the window!
Unlike the Zudaists present before him, the divinity that surrounds him is more densed and twisted, a senior paladin in the Church of {Cancer}.
He's no ordinary man!
" Senior Brother Rashmi, we were told you will be visiting later, why are you here? " Sister Juri questioned, she slowly rose up to her feets just as her brothers did, all four stood before Rashmi, he answered with a smile.
" I was supposed to make an appearance later while watching from the shadows but it seems things are much more complicated for me to do so "
" There's a demonic worshipper in this land, your mission which is to capture the tenth young master remains the same, I will be the one who deals with the demonic worshipper and I'll return with his head "
" Just as I've always done " Rashmi explained.
" Sister Juri, your brothers are in charge of this mission, no matter what you do, do not fail to bring the target, you should know the punishment for failures, that's all I have to say, bring me my prey "
The moment Rashmi vanished into the darkness, Juri giggled softly, her hysterical laughter echoed!
" What seems to be funny? Sister Juri? " One of the three hooded brothers asked.
" Nothing, I'm just quite in the mood for some hunting, so we will be attacking the target tomorrow evening, I should get myself warmed up already " Sister Juri answered, she licked her lips.
Within seconds...she vanished without hesitation!
------------
Appearing on a rooftop, Juri looked around, scanning the vicinity in hopes of finding a worthy prey, she has found her target, a lonely hunter who's returning back from his farmlands, completely stressed out.
Juri was about to make a move when she sensed something.
A rushing waves of lightnings scattered across space, If she had made a wrong move....she could have been chopped off already, Juri quickly turned back, facing a man whose left arm held his scabbard.
Cladded in a weird looking armor, she frowned.
" Who are you? and what do you want from me? " She questioned, she already positioned herself, waiting for any slight opportunity to attack but he wasn't moved, facing a divine worshipper laced with bloodlust.
A smirk appeared on his lips.
" When my father explained to us that demonic worshipers were more humane than those so called Zudaists, I doubted his words, after all, Divine is "good" and Demonic is "bad", that's what I've always been taught "
" But now I can see it with my eyes.... Zudaists are just pieces of shits "
His words enraged Juri, she gritted her teeths in anger, throbbing veins spread across her face and neck and within a few seconds, she disappeared, appearing right behind the figure within a split second.
" You fool, what do you know about us when you're just a foolish unbeliever, we Zudaists are entities close to perfection, it doesn't matter what you think or what they say, in just a few years "
" All you disdainful unbelievers will cease to exist "
She spoke out, pulling out a divinity engraved dagger, she swung her dagger against the target, aiming to pierce through his skull with her dagger, Juri widened her eyes in shock the second she stabbed the air.
He had completely vanished from the scene, erasing his presence...
" That bastard, where the hell is he? " She asked herself, scanning through the environment, a smirk escaped her lips when she noticed a presence behind her, she swiftly turned, unleashing her blade.
" Gotcha..."
" Divine Art: Severing chapter three, Nivox!! "
She chanted, pouring out her divine energy into her blade, she created destructive divine waves, storming space itself with her pressure but she was met with something, a power more destructive than hers.
Juri collasped on her knees, screaming out in pains, her right arm was chopped off!
Bleeding out, she raised her head, facing the man who severed her arm, standing before her, his gaze fell upon her, slowly shealthing his bloodied sword into his scabbard, he bent down, grabbing Juri by the neck.
Slowly lifting her into the air, tightening his grip with extreme pressure.
Her eyes widened when she noticed the silver color of his hair and the crimsoned eyes of his, she was overwhelmed with fear!
" You are on my father's property, if you were a demonic worshipper, I would have killed you on sight but you are a Zudaist, that's why I'm sparing you.....the next time you think of shedding bloods on my land "
" That would be your last, now get lost "
He tossed her into the air, sending her crashing aggressively, slowly cleaning his bloodied hands, two entities appeared right behind him, without hesitation, they fell on their knees, bowing their heads before him.
They were all Captain ranked knights!
" We pay our greetings to the first young master "
They voiced out in unison, their heads remained bowed, a smile escaped his lips, tilting his head, he turned to face the Head Butler Geran, a man who's here to welcome the first young master back!
" To think father would send you here to personally welcome me "
" It's being awhile, Head Butler Geran or should I said, Teacher " the first young master spoke out, the Head Butler Geran walked into the light, bowing his head before the first young master of the land.
" Its quite embarrassing for you to call me that but isn't killing that Zudaist the right thing to do? She was about to kill a citizen of your land....why let her go? " Head Butler Geran asked!
" I have my reasons and I'm in a good mood today "
" I can't just kill on the first day of my return and besides I heard some pretty interesting news, are they true? " The first young master asked.
" Yes, the tenth young master and your direct brother became the highest ranker in the first stage of the Caravan Ritual, right now....He's currently training for the second stage of the Ritual " Head Butler Geran answered.
" Hmmmm, I guess I mistook that little boy for some worthless trash, I returned from the capital after hearing the news, I hope the little prick doesn't disappoint me "
" Are you going to visit your father? " The Head Butler asked.
" Sure but that will be later, there's something I need to do first, before I got in contact with that Zudaist, I sensed demonic energy not too long ago "
" I will be hunting down that demonic worshipper first "
