The fact that the Demon King had yet to appear was becoming increasingly strange.
No one said anything about it too. Instead, an uneasy atmosphere had gradually settled over the gathering.
Nathan noticed that several of the provincial lords and their right-hands were looking in his direction, occasionally exchanging glances with one another.
Their expressions were difficult to read, but there was something suspicious about the way they were watching him and Jillia.
Nathan's eyes moved from one side of the gathering to the other, carefully observing them.
Then his eyes met those of Eorlagar's; a demon lord who suddenly grinned.
His eyes flashed red in tandem and in the next instant, Eorlagar disappeared in a burst of speed.
Nathan's expression changed into sudden urgency as Eolagar reappeared directly before him, both hands gripping a massive red axe as he brought it down with tremendous force.
