The clock ticked over to 8:03 PM. I stood on top of the tallest building in Lightglen City, staring down at the view sprawled out beneath me.
City lights shimmered below. From up here, everything looked small—the houses, the cars, the people—a miniature, bustling world moving along without a clue of what lurked above.
Tonight was hunting night. I headed out with my usual team of pets, although I left Foxy behind this time.
Celia wasn't doing so great; she'd had another breakdown, and I managed to calm her down, but she was still fragile.
After what Mrs. Clea had told me about the association, the last thing I wanted was for Celia to get caught up in it. I decided to keep her in the dark for now, so I passed the info on to Foxy telepathically. Besides, Celia had told me she was cooking dinner with Foxy tonight, so hopefully, that'd cheer her up a bit.
I shoved the thoughts aside. There was no time to get lost in worry. My eyes scanned the city streets below, watching my pets as they hunted down the wild demons lurking around. They were sharp, their senses trained and honed to a level that would put any Demon Compass to shame. I'd drilled it into them—no slip-ups, no half-measures.
After making sure they could handle their hunt, I left them to it, giving them an hour to roam freely before calling them back.
