Chapter 173.2
Aishe’s sarcastic words of contempt were answered shortly by Camille, as if trying to suppress his emotions.
As evidenced by Aishe’s words and actions, Camille’s voice within Demons was weak. It would have been different if her mother was still alive, but there was no point in dwelling on a future that could never have existed.
Camille was the son of the Demon king. However, the son of a King did not necessarily become the next King.
His mother was from the Khalfaan Empire, and when she died, his father became depressed and lost his will to live. Even if she had remained in the Demon Kingdom, Camille, with his human blood, would have been killed by those who wanted to claim the throne.
But even when he fled to the town of Cutlass to live, Camille could not escape his fate as a Demon.
Leaving Aishe’s office, Camille walked alone through the dark corridor without sunlight.
The fact that the people Aishe had mentioned had traveled this far probably meant that the death of his father, King Demon, was approaching. The fact that he saved the two prisoners this time should make Camille’s position even worse.
It could be taken as an act of treachery against the Demons, and he could be held in captivity without receiving a [Selection Ceremony] and imprisoned until his death.
“…”
Why was he so concerned about saving her? He reasoned that he owed her a debt, but there was certainly another unspoken thought that existed inside him.
–Katsun.
“!?”
At that moment, he received a strong shock along with a faint noise. What had happened? Was there someone who wanted to kill me in the mix? Although his training in the town of Cutlass and his Rank 4 status had made it impossible for anyone to easily attack him, Camille clenched his fist and knew that he should never have separated himself from his followers.
