Chapter 324: Drakzen’s Interruption
After healing the two demonoids who were half-death in the settlement, I made my way to the area where Vespera and Drakzen were fighting.
They had gotten out of the settlement into the adjacent fields, which were wholly burnt to a crisp from all the destruction their attacks generated.
When I looked at Vespera, she was quite beaten up, with a drop of blood coming down her head and mouth and the bottom of her dress somewhat ripped apart.
Drakzen was in his half-demon form, which was the one I was most used to seeing at this point.
"Ah, I ran out of time... How unfortunate," said Drakzen as he saw me arriving.
"What the hell do you think you are doing?" I asked in a low tone of voice laced with anger as I stood next to my companion.
"My job, of course. Gathering powerful beasts," Drakzen replied indifferently.
"So, you thought you could take my companion from me?" I asked again with my eyes sharpened against Drakzen.
The devil grinned and shrugged, which only made me angrier, making my body go into a soft-awakened state with phoenix fire.
I rushed at him at full speed with my bo in hand, but instead of fighting back, Drakzen started running away.
’Where is he going?’ I pondered as I followed him, noticing that he was going back to the settlement.
