Just like Amara, these five demons also didn’t look much different from humans. If they didn’t have the demonic vibe and a black horn on top of their heads, it would’ve been nearly impossible to tell them apart from humans.
In this demon group, three were male and two were female.
One of the female demons had a black scar across her face, which she got when she fought with Leticia. That was why, when she saw Leticia, she couldn’t stop herself and lunged at Leticia, wanting to rip her apart.
However,
“Stop!” One of the male demons shouted at her. He was dressed more luxurious than the rest, and had the aura of someone superior.
The scarred demoness stopped reluctantly, turned around to look at the man and asked through gritted teeth, “Why are you stopping me, young master Mehak?”
The demon called Mehak didn’t answer her. He walked over to her, and suddenly
Whoosh!
He grabbed her neck, squeezed it tightly, which made the demoness’ eyes widened in horror. She thought he was going to kill her, but Mehak didn’t use more force, just enough to make her suffer a little.
He then looked into her eyes and coldly said, “You don’t question my order. You just obey it. Understand?”
The other three demons frowned when they heard this, but didn’t say anything because Mehak was the youngest son of the patriarch of their Devil horned branch tribe.
“Y-Yes, young master.” The scarred demoness squeezed out the words.
“Good.” Mehak smiled and released her neck.
The other demoness looked at Leticia and the others and asked, “But young master, what do you want to do with them?”
Hearing this, Mehak looked at the group in front of him, his eyes glinting.
He slowly scanned every woman in the group before his gaze stopped on Leticia, her mother and Belen — the three most beautiful women in the group — and said while licking his lips, “I want to enjoy these fine women first.”
The demoness who questioned him raised her brows and said, “Young master, I don’t think we should waste time here. Why don’t you cripple their mana cores so they can’t resist us and take them with us? You can enjoy them after we have completed our mission.”
Mehak heard her and frowned. After the demon army landed on the human continent, demons below four-star were divided into teams of three, five and ten and their mission was to kill 100 natives of the human continent per person and bring their heads back, the stronger the people they killed the better.
They had three days to complete this mission and head back. If they failed, they wouldn’t get any cultivation resources and as a result, they couldn’t increase their strength, which would make it hard for them to survive during the war.
Seeing him fall into deep thought, the two other male demons exchanged their glances and said
“Young master. With our strength, it won’t take us much time to complete our target mission as long as we find an inhabited city. So, we can afford to waste some time here. Don’t you think so?”
Hearing this, Mehak’s eyes lit up. When the demoness who suggested they shouldn’t waste time here noticed this, she cast an angry glance at the demon who spoke just now and said to Mehak
“Young master, if you just want to complete the mission, we can, of course, spend a few hours or even a day.”
“Hm?” Mehak frowned.
The demon who suggested to stay here snorted, “What else? Don’t tell me you really believe the rumor that we would get some special reward if we performed better?”
The demoness gave him a look of derision, “It isn’t a rumor, you idiot. I’m sure the young master knows this.”
“If we performed better and meet whatever requirement the higher ups have set, we would get a few drops of emperor ranked essence blood. I’m sure you also know what emperor ranked essence blood entails, right?”
The two male demons and the scarred demoness looked at Mehak to confirm if what she said was true.
Mehak’s lips twitched, and he nodded. “She is right.”
Ha!
Hearing this, their breathing became faster in excitement.
“If I can get a few drops or even a single drop, my cultivation would increase. Perhaps I can even break through to the four-star realm. Then I would have a better chance of being ranked higher in the [Slayers Rankings].” One of the male demons mumbled with a dreamy look in his eyes.
He and the other male demons wanted to stay here so they could also enjoy these beautiful human women after Mehak was done with them. However, now these thoughts had vanished completely, and they said
“Ahem, young master. Since the rumor is true, we shouldn’t waste time here.”
Heng!
Mehak grunted coldly when he heard this.
He really wanted to have his way with these women right now because even though he didn’t know what the requirements were that the higher ups had set, he knew they weren’t strong enough to fulfill them and receive the reward of the emperor’s essence blood.
Since this was the case, why not enjoy himself? But now that all of them were raring to go, he couldn’t force them to stay. He could if it was only one or two, but not all four of them.
“Alright. We’ll leave. You can kill them all.” He said in a displeased tone.
“Yes, young master.” The two male demons nodded and moved toward Leticia’s group.
—
When Leticia and Belen saw that instead of attacking them, the demons had started talking to each other; they saw a ray of hope and their minds raced to think of some way to escape.
Unfortunately, they couldn’t think of any. If Leticia and Belen weren’t injured and these demons weren’t so close to them, maybe they could escape, but not now.
Others continued to look at Leticia and Belen hopefully as they were the only ones who could save them but when even after a while, they didn’t see them do anything; they started to panic.
And when they saw two of them demon lunge toward them with murderous looks on their faces, they became horrified.
“Run!”
