Arnold walked down a deserted street.
He toyed with the Forbidden Magic Shackles, looking up at the Star Demon Eye that had appeared in the sky.
Arnold smiled. "He succeeded."
CLANG!
The Forbidden Magic Shackles clattered to the ground.
Arnold headed out of the city, putting distance between himself and Maple City.
'This city is about to be destroyed.'
When he reached the city gate, he suddenly stopped.
'Oh, I almost forgot.'
'Don't I have a daughter here?'
'Delis...'
Arnold shook his head and continued walking out of the city.
'Seventeen years of fatherly affection. This, too, is my offering to Lord Yubis.'
He smiled and strode off into the distance.
The guards at the gate were all stunned by the sight in the sky.
No one seemed to notice Arnold as he walked.
Inside the City Lord's Mansion, Delis stood by the window, her gaze trembling as she stared at the Star Demon Eye in the sky.
She felt as if she was being watched.
