Chapter 18: Kaldr!
Sapphire looked at her General, Karthus, who was looking at her, an incredibly respectful expression plastered all over Karthus’ face. As Sapphire heard Karthus’ words, a contemplative gleam flashed across her eyes, and a smile formed on her beautiful red lips.
"As expected of my son." Sapphire said, an immense sense of pride and fulfilment laced in her voice.
Karthus couldn’t help but smile wrly. To everyone else in the world, Sapphire was the Crimson Witch Of Destruction, Grand Marshall of the Divine Demon Empire and the Unkillable Succubus Queen, amongst many other titles. Yet when speaking about her own son, Sapphire would morph into a completely different person, and such a difference truly astounded Karthus, yet he could understand the reasoning.
"You didn’t come all the way here to just tell me something I could’ve easily found out did you?" Sapphire asked Karthus, her blood red eyes gazing at the General as a sense of pressure immediately weighted down onto his body, truly a testament to Sapphire’s strength.
Karthus cleared his throat and immediately spoke, fearing that if he wasted any more time, something truly terrible may occur to him, "Grand Marshall, Master Flandre has sent a message saying that his journey is nearing completion, and he will return to your side within a few years at most."
Sapphire’s face quickly went from the beautiful smile that was previously present to a cunning expression flashing on her face, and a curious yet excited glint flashed across her eyes and finally, a sly smirk remained on her face, a show of her emotions.
Karthus looked at Sapphire’s smile and nodded his head, saying, "It seems Grand Marshall really wants Master Flandre to return as soon as possible."
Sapphire simply heard his words and chuckled, looking at Karthus dead in the eyes before responding in a nostalgic tone,
"Of course, it’s time for Damon to meet his father."
