As the Chariot started to head for the center of the city, I couldn't help but turn to Dorax and ask him about how and when did he got the news about the heroine, he said that this was reported by one of the royal guards, they were the one who managed to track her whereabouts .
I was starting to get anxious after hearing this, seeing how anxious I was, he seemed to have seen through my thoughts and he said :
Will, you don't need to worry much, even though they had found her whereabouts, they still hadn't found her yet and it's all thanks to them that we had acquired this news to start with .
The human is seem to be good at hiding her presence, she also seem to have picked a good spot to hide herself from those who wanted to do her any harm .
She was hiding in a Human filled district, an endless number of humans were in that district with all kinds of faces and shapes, finding her was like finding a needle in haystack, so there shouldn't be a problem for her to stay hidden from the guards eyes for some time .
At least, that was what I believed, after all, if she had indeed been captured, there should be news about it, not to mention that it have been two days since the news about her possible whereabouts were released, yet there hadn't been any news about her being already captured .
Looking at all the facts being laid in front of me currently, I couldn't help but grow more anxious, after all the logic of Dorax was a bit flawed, he thought that the girl should be safe due to the lack of news about here getting captured, but Devo might already have the girl in custody but he just wanted to release the news to divert our attention .
That was one of the possibilities I have in mind for what was going on, this was also the worst case scenario that could happen, first if the girl were to get captured again, then the chances of her escaping again would be quite close to impossible, second, if Devo managed to get her hands on her, then he can seal the news about her capture and cover up on her whole existence in his custody, which would hinder me from trying to rescue her .
After all, there was no guarantee where would such a shrewd guy keep her in, me randomly attacking the castle, may even make him become certain of what exactly are my intentions, then I would be forced to compromise with him for the sake of him not hurting here or worse sacrificing here .
As I thought like this, I couldn't help but grit my teeth and urge Dorax to increase the speed of the Chariot even more, he said that this might cause ruckus and troubles with the Law Enforcement Team, but I still insisted on him doing this and with increasing the Mana Stones used to run the vehicle and increasing the output of energy that is being used, the Chariot started to cut through the road like a flying streak of light .
I heard the screams and the yells from the people on the road who were startled by how fast we were moving, but I gave them no mind, I was determined to reach where that girl was supposedly staying as quickly as possible, after a few more minutes seemed to have passed, we seem to have finally reached the place where the girl was .
At least close to the lines of that place, we were stopped from going anymore forward by the royal guards, their armors were recognizable to the blind, they opened the door to the Chariot, at least they tried, but unless we allowed them to, they have no chance in opening that door forcefully .
I wasn't in the mood to deal with them, so I left Dorax do it instead, once he leaned his head out of the window, those guys were surprised after recognizing him, but the next second they still continued to tell him that it's better for him to leave the place, saying that this area currently was off limits and no one is allowed to enter or exit without the permission of King Devo .
After briefing him on what was going on briefly, they left him be, they weren't afraid that he was still going to drive the Chariot because of two reasons, first the road was completely blocked by barriers that sealed the whole area, forcing our way through using the Chariot would only end up damaging it, something that would be reckless and irresponsible, not to mention useless .
The second reason was more of psychological deterrent than a physical one like those barriers, it was the deterring effect of the King's orders, they thought this would be enough to step everyone from trying to enter, else they would be going against the Kind Devo's wishes and their fates are already set in stone if they were to do something like that .
Unfortunately for those guards, I was not in slightest worried or nervous about going against the Demon King Devo's wishes, in fact I was all for seeing how would he react when I broke it, after Dorax had told me about was going on, I couldn't help but smile and the family head was already aware of what might be going on inside my mind .
I didn't even need to say a word, before I saw him opening the door of the Chariot and leisurely going down, I closed my eyes slightly and thought about the aching headaches that had finally started to dissipate, I kept hearing the screams and yells of the gurads just now, after 5 minutes those cries quietened down and I heard a few knocks on the door of the chariot and heard the few words Dorax said, he said :
It's all done .
After hearing him say this, I too stepped out of the Chariot wondering what kind of scene would I saw, the old man was as refined as before, the scene around him and me give a bit unsettling vibe, there were dozen of bodies thrown in every direction there was, the whole place seemed to have been wrecked by a hurricane .
The barrier was now off, the gurads who were quite acting strong Just now were all casualties currently falling on the floor and some were still breathing rigidly and others were not breathing, he looked at me innocently, like as if he had nothing to do with what had happened here .
I looked at him and almost clasped him on his performance, but recalling that I was in a bit of a hurry, I marched forward and he start walking behind me, as we entered the area, I found that the place was deathly quiet, not to mention that the area was quite shabby and seem to be chaotic .
This is the district where humans adventurers can rent places to live, but it's not exclusive for human and this place normally won't be quite like this, but it seem that a curfew had been indued .
Hearing what he said, I couldn't help but wonder if the lack of guards was because they had already found the location where the student council president was hiding, I picked up my pace and started searching for a clues on where the girl should have gone, then as if destiny was giving me a hint, I heard a powerful sound of something exploding in the distance, wasting no time I flew there and saw a scene that surprised me quite a lot .
Two parties were currently fighting against one another, a Cyclop, a Werewolf were fighting against Levan and Tay, there fighting kept on getting more and more heated, then I heard another explosive sound coming from another direction .
I couldn't help but turn my head to where I heard the sound of turmoil coming from, only to found the Demons dressed in armors completely going around obliterating everything that seem to stand in their path, keep following them with my gaze for a while longer, I had finally understood what they were doing and I had mixed thoughts regarding this realization of mine .
They were searching, yes, that was way of searching, turning this place completely over, building weren't spared, other people weren't spared, families were completely wiped out, it was a scene that looked like to have come out of a horror movie, a purgatory on earth .
The two engaging in fighting with my two new subordinates were none other than Devo own subordinates, the match in fighting power between the 4 was uncanny, the Werewolf and the Cyclop were also ones of those who had joined the last meeting with King Devo, at that time they also made their stance clear, advancing and retreating with an order from Devo, very obedient dogs, ironically one of them actually looked like an actual dog .
Just almost as height as a two floor building, maybe even towering over it a little, what made him a troublesome opponent for Levan was his senses, they were quite sharp, Levan was unable to land a single hit without the latter finding his position and forcing him out .
As for Tay, she was also in a troublesome situation, her power and aerial advantage seemed to be rendered completely useless by the yellow skinned Cyclop who was able to unleash energy attacks and launch it at her from his eyes, forcing her time after time to evade and not giving her much time to breath or think of a counterattack .
All these people fighting here were of the Ruler rank, so as a result, a devastated damage had befallen the entire district and the people who lived in it, looking at the whole battlefield, I noticed that Fay was missing, the situation seemed to have fallen into a stalemate, but I realized that it was actually worked in favor of Devo and his side .
They have the numbers that allowed them to outmaneuver us and continue pursuing Takumi Sora senpai, recalling the honorific titles that already had slipped away from my tongue since I came here to this world, I couldn't help but laugh to myself a little now, the person I was trying to find was quite a serious and rigid person back in my old world, she was as an acting student council president even though she was the same year as me .
Anyhow, shaking the useless thoughts that suddenly appeared on my mind, I once again recalled that things were currently not going my way and that need to change fast, I thought for a while on what should I be doing, then I turned towards Dorax and order him to go and help the two guys with their fight, he looked quite reluctant to do so, but he know better than to argue .
I saw him shake his body and saying :
My old bones seemed to have quite rusted, what will you do ? .
Not giving him a reply directly, I shook my head and just pointed at where those guys were currently making their way to with my finger and started moving towards them without giving him much time to do or say anything else, after I went to where these guys were, my appearance had startled them slightly, but just slightly, then they started cursing at me and stopped what they were doing and came to encircle me .
What are you doing here, who are you, this place is off limits, what those stupid guys outside think letting you barge in here like that, leave once, else we will kill you instantly .
All kinds of questions, threats, inquiries were howled at me, I took all of this with a faint smile on my face as I said :
" I'm the Dorell family's heir, I would be happy to accompany all of you and talk earnestly and extensively, but sadly I'm currently quite busy, so I would much prefer if you just stepped out of my way and let me through, what do you think .
They looked at me as if I was stupid or something, but me towering over all of them in terms of height even in my normal form made them a little alarmed, they didn't dare to make a rash move else they ended being the one to pay the price, they were about to send someone to go and receive orders on what should they do from their leaders .
Just as this was about to be implemented, a sudden commotion happened, a shadow of a figure suddenly rushed out of the other direction, that place where the Rulers should be fighting in, it hadn't even been 5 minutes and someone seemed to have already retreated, the gurads were alarmed seeing that the shadow was dashing towards their group .
They raised their spears with shaking hands, hoping to at least being able to push that figure back, but they still weren't able to get in position quickly enough, the shadow directly clashed with them and cry of shock, pain, misery soon filled the scenery, the guys who were hit just now were like cones and they were directly sent flying into the air .
The figure that was responsible for this didn't seem to be able to stop and continued to cut through their lines as if nothing at all, but what startled me a little was recognizing the identity of that dashing figure, it was none other than the Werewolf from before who should have been fighting with Levan and the others now .
I finally realized what was going on, this guy was sent flying here after the stalemate had already been broken, turning to the direction it came from, I saw that there were a colossal bare chested red headed demon, that was Dorax Demon Form, it still wasn't as big as mine, but it wasn't that far off as well, seeing him like this, I couldn't help but turn to look at the victim that should have fallen into his hands .
That Werewolf had finally stopped after crashing into more than a dozen of buildings, he finally stopped rolling around and I was able to see that he was in quite the dire state, lost one of his arm, plucked out eye, numerous wounds covering his furry body, his legs were twisted in weird angles, he looked to be quite miserable .
A few seconds passed and this guy whose name was Shev, at least that what the guards around called him, Commander Shev, he was responsible for the Law Enforcement Team in the city, but now he was reduced to such a state still unconscious and bleeding out, the gurads around kept trying to call him out and heal him, but he was still completely out of it and seemed to have stopped breathing, was he already dead ? .
