Carson fidgeted at being addressed directly and seemed conflicted on how to respond, "Uh, sir, don't you think you should meet with the City Lord first?"

If we continued at our current pace we would reach the city in an hour but that wasn't what was important right now. I was still uninformed about the details we were dealing with and I wasn't going to trust what I was told wholeheartedly.

I wanted to see what we were dealing with first to ensure we weren't being led on a wild goose chase.

From the way the City was preparing it was clear they were readying for war, but that didn't confirm what we were about to face. I wasn't well versed in Demon Summoning Rituals but I could at least check the degree of skill used to carve it.

Compare what was there to what I or Gabriel made.

It would give me a good picture of what level the person responsible for this whole thing was. At least the Professional levels. The person's Class was a complete mystery.

You'd think that any who willingly summoned Demons was a Warlock of some sort but that assumption was faulty. ANY Class could benefit from making a deal with a Demon, which made finding the person responsible so difficult.

When literally anyone could benefit, it was hard to narrow down the suspects.

The reason I was so fixated on the person responsible for the summoning was because if we didn't catch them, the same problem would arise when they did it again.

To kill the threat, all the Demons and the person responsible needed to be killed or it would just resurface.

"Tell him to meet me there if you wish. Time is of the essence and I will not waste it on frivolous meetings." I told the man which only worried him more.
