Chapter 23: The Mark (2)
At Castle Helion, Kingdom of Helion
"Imbecile!!!"
Devon roared as he strangled the neck of the messenger in front of him. Everyone inside the throne hall cringed as they watched their king run amok, venting all his anger to the poor servants around him.
Different shades of crimson splashes all over the floor and walls were not a new sight in Devon’s throne hall. Some bodies of the humans and other creatures whom the Demon King had killed out of rage were still plastered all over the place, and his temperament became even more wroth due to the absence of his favorite mistress.
"Make sure to send more capable spies inside Ebodia Encampment!" Devon roared at them with gritted teeth, his veins bulging out of his skin in fury. He still couldn’t believe that Ezekiel managed to root out all his eyes inside Ebodia. "I want eyes on the Seer of Ebodia at all times!"
"Why are you so worked up like this, My Lord? I thought you trusted her," Marla, one of his loyal mistresses, taunted as she approached him and caressed his face. "Didn’t you cast a strong spell on her and her brother? So why are you acting like this?"
She then started showering him with kisses and seductively caressed his body. But all Devon could think of at the moment was how much he wanted to infiltrate Ebodia’s encampment and have his hands on his Seer!
Yes, the damn woman was his and not Ebodia’s Seer. He simply lent her to Ezekiel just so she could awaken the Dragon King’s soul and its power inside that damn annoying prince.
Even more, he didn’t like the last report he received about how the prince of Ebodia had his woman sleep inside his tenth. For this reason, he was planning to see her by manifesting himself in one of the spies he planted in Ebodia’s encampment.
