Chapter 100: My Demon Lord is cute when he got jealous
I already felt the demon’s presence when Natha rubbed my back, which was why I asked him if we really would proceed to...you know.
Heraz, as someone in charge of espionage and infiltration, must have known what we were doing the moment he landed on the balcony. And through my heightened senses, I could feel his flustered and panic. He was probably confused about how he should proceed. Should he leave since we were in the middle of something? Or should he stay since we hadn’t done anything more?
There was probably no protocol on how he should act in this kind of instance, since the Lord never had a lover before.
And now, he was crouching in front of Natha and me, as we move to the front of the fireplace. His skin was paler than usual, and I couldn’t even see his face from how deep he was bowing.
"Forgive me, my Lord, for my impudent trespassing," there was a slight tremble in his voice, which I couldn’t blame. After all, Natha was looking at him coldly, visibly annoyed at the timing of his appearance.
Well, I knew this, but I also didn’t think I could concentrate on anything without hearing what this demon wanted to report to me. And that was why I insisted on letting him inside to hear about it. Better fulfilled my curiosity first rather than having my mind flying everywhere in the middle of...whatever it was Natha wanted to do earlier.
"No need for too much courtesy, just spill it fast."
Wow, he really was impatient, huh? It was also refreshing seeing this side of Natha, since he was always the one who remained calm in any situation usually.
"By your command," Heraz bowed even more, at this point looking more like he was groveling than kneeling. The pale demon shifted slightly so he faced me rather than Natha, and started to give his account.
This too, felt different, since I usually received the report alone without Natha being there. Having Heraz facing my direction made it clear that Natha’s order about him serving ’me’ was still in effect. So he gave the report to me, not Natha.
"As Young Master instructed, we continued tailing the hero and his new companion. The boy from the monastery seemed to learn about priesthood from the books and notes that were left in the church, and became a priest through a ceremony in Estalla Kingdom."
