Chayan was awakened by the third kick of the small lord that was looking at him as he was the prey that needed to be eaten.
The combat boots connected harshly on his head.
“Are you sane yet?” The lazy voice was directed above him. “Wake up now.” She gave him another kick before striding elsewhere.
Chayan, who was laying on the ground grunted, he pushed his body off the ground, his hazy eyes fluttered a moment to find his ground. His head was ringing for a whole different reason although he knew who was the cause of it.
He snickered ironically inwardly.
The small girl that was sitting on his throne with one leg topples another and leaned sideways with a propping head and wearing a less scary mask that
“Good morning to all sleepyheads.” Shadow ran through the house with the apron.The trouble Elijah followed behind her, helped her if she belatedly should do so. Like when they spotted the dirty clothes on the floor, Elijah was figuratively transported next to it and vacuumed everything.In a sense, Shadow acted like a supervisor instead of helping around. It was always like this even after years they had the master-servant bond, though she couldn’t protest. A protest made by Shadow would always receive encouragement from Elijah instead of properly listening to Shadow.So, Shadow learned to let them be.“At least, I know my way around the kitchen, I am a
Shadow was visibly relaxing on the couch, shutting her eyes with a serene expression. She was currently resting inside the cottage while David and Elijah were doing outing activities like buying a grocery for dinner today.Their principle when it came to their lord was somewhat strict but it was manageable to some extent.However, the busy Shadow was now looking peaceful without doing anything. She had to mobilize all her body just to come here, seeking information. She was sleeping peacefully instead.No one knew what plan she had stored inside her mind but they hoped it brought the satisfaction of the lord. For the very least, met the initial goal that no one knew of.“May I inquire with you?”“James
Elijah and David soon returned with a bag full of groceries. After giving their self-made compulsory greeting, they went to the kitchen to put away the groceries while James and Shadow conversed.“For two years, I only answered the angry call.” She answered James’s next inquiry.“The expansion around your town was because of answering the challenge of others?” James couldn’t bring himself to believe the words.She looked like someone who attacked them first like when she attacked the demon lord.Shadow sat on the couch and propped her elbow on the edge of the head’s couch. “Did I ever attack you?” Her eyebrows raised in question.James wet his lips in guilt. He was t
James had a complicated face on his face. It stayed a full minute while his brain was working hard. Once the information and the fight of the Shadow interrupted his black thought, it concluded his thinking.“I will follow the Overlord to the end of the world, for the rest of my life.”Shadow took the warm cup on the table. “You have pledged to the lord Shadow,” she made clear to him. “LORD SHADOW.”“Yes!”“Great,” an ambivalent grin planted on her lips.Ding dong!James and David instinctively swiveled their heads to the front door that was 20 meters away from there.Shadow flicked her hand a
SWWOOOOOOSHHH~~Her hair and attire flapped to the back due to the strong gust. King fluttered his black wings repetitively while gripping tight her shoulder.“How strong,” Shadow stated, low. Her elbow shielded her face from the wind as she was sitting on the tallest tree’s branch. She kicked her legs in the air, humming happily.Below she was the burning town and a few fallen citizens that were trying to burn the tree she was on.“Don’t you think what they are doing is rather pathetic?” Her lethargic eyes were witnessing the pathetic defense of this unknown town. “They are nothing but a bunch of vampires’ string dolls.”KAW! KAW!
Although the victory was hers, she couldn’t afford to fall asleep because she had an urgent matter to attend to, thanks to the capture of the four politicians and one instigator. In a single evening, the town had been cleansed by her people. The town people were locked inside the dungeon to minimize any escape plan that might form inside their creative minds. After cleaning herself up with the help of Elijah, she entered the torture room in her favorite tulip-ish dinosaur onesie. Conan inevitably grabbed his phone and captured every moment with a small coo under his breath. Specifically when he wanted to attract the attention of the lord. Miraculously, Shadow listened to the plea. Her head followed the voice’s direction and yawned at his direction every time for a
“I wish for you to fulfill your job as the war prisoners. Failure to do so will lead to the punishment that you will experience around you soon enough.” Shadow warned them with her dry voice and her lazy eyes. She wiggled one of her feet in the air to entertain herself.They recoiled in fear whenever the agony screamed echoed around the building. The ugly shriek could be heard by everyone. Every pleading sound, groaning, grunting, and crying were resonating and some escaped inside their cell. The vibration of the shriek was from in front of them, their back, their left, their right, their ceiling, and on the floor.It instilled fear inside them.A psychological effect that led to the easiest path to find the answer.
“I will talk.” Gunner decided to surrender for good. It wasn’t for the threat, it was his conscience. “Let me talk.”Amel was visibly pleased while the lord maintained her cold gaze. The raven just hung on the table pecking at the biscuit meant for Shadow.The dice of his fate have been cast. It’s time for Shadow to see what number he imprinted on.Shadow’s cheekbone rose, and her crescent moon’s eyes stayed on Gunner. “Tell us, Gunner. For I, the lord of the Overlord Town will ease your worry once my spirit of inquiry is sated.”“Then, I would like for you to release my comrade from his misery.” He bravely tried to negotiate the terms before he started. His fierce eyes fought Shadows.
