Chapter 21: The Devils Hunt 1
On the street, a few elves in their casual white and green clothes walked through the crowd. Their steps were a little rushed as they followed a human in front of them into a certain alley. When Eleine arrived at the mayor's mansion earlier, luckily, the mayor agreed to send his men; in fact, the mayor even came himself this time to see the evidence of the devils. Initially, he found her claims absurd—how could devils infiltrate Balin with all those checkpoints and guards? But he still remembered the words of Grand Duke Sylvaris before he departed for the capital.
"Give them the best service, they are important people and under the watch of the imperial family."
As the mayor of Balin, a city under the grand duchy of Sylvaris, he felt compelled to follow the Grand Duke's orders, especially since these people had the imperial family's attention. Without much delay, he ordered his men to follow Eleine. Due to the sensitivity of the information, the mayor decided to come himself to see the evidence of the devil cultivator. However, she mentioned that she only needed a small group of guards to accompany her in disguise to the location of the teleportation artifact, but the mayor insisted.
They finally arrived at the front of the house, and without hesitation, they rushed in. What they saw were a few corpses and two bodies of devils tied back-to-back using energy. A young man sat on a chair, looking at them. The mayor then looked at the young man.
"Are you Young Master Aldrian?" he asked.
Aldrian didn't immediately answer him. Instead, he checked his information.
