Chapter 193: Contact

"So… you are saying that you were assigned a mission to intercept a meddling 'Clearer' who has destroyed several of our reserve gates and may have even obtained some of the reserves' contents?"

After putting aside my disappointment for not being able to announce my name as Train Heartnet, incapable of taking advantage of the limited contact they had, as he already seemed to have some information, I started by telling him what I had deduced from the attack of the shadow assassin, supposedly named Jared, and the special gates holding the corrupted elemental crystals, yet he seemed to be explaining it in a more detailed yet elusive way, I was already starting to wonder if he still believed my disguise…

No matter how one looked at it, this demon was one of the deceptive masterminds, otherwise he wouldn't be assigned as the overseer of such an important base, which would turn into a war front eventually.

"Yes, I managed to catch him red-handedly coming out of one of the 'reserve' gate and went for the kill, however, he was somehow able to drag till he hid in one of the camps of the Light Association so I couldn't pursue further…"

"Yet, once he emerged, he managed to overwhelm you and drive you to a situation where you had to hasten your demonification process, which you could only use its advantage to run further to this gate, am I right?"

'Interesting…'

"Of course, it's as you said, as expected of the commander and the overseer of this war front! Your intelligence knows no bounds!"

"Hmmm, but you still managed to beat.... The target must be quite a strong foe…"

"Indeed, sir overseer! His surprise growth in the matter of a day or so growth proves that he would be a thorn in our side if he is left unattended, luckily, I memorized his looks, fighting style, and I do have some confidence in being capable of identifying his elemental aura if he operated his elemental abilities! If that would help on capturing that meddling nuisance, I would gladly share my information for the sake of our great cause!"

"Splendid, even if you are doing it for revenge, you still seem more loyal than some of those blockheads wandering in this base…"

"You flatter me…"

"Hahaha, it's quite amusing talking to you, you will be given your chance, fortunately, there's only 15 days left before we would be able to initiate our first contact with the subordinates out of the bases, all thanks to time wearing down the barrier, you shall use this opportunity to prove your worth, if they managed to remove the threat of that 'Clearer' thanks to your information, I would accept you as my direct subordinate!"

"Thanks you sir!"

"No need, you are worth nurturing after all, if it wasn't for your master underestimating that clearer, you wouldn't have failed so miserably, considering that you only managed to partially awaken, your strength is already considered terrifying! You can go ahead and rest in one of our rooms, I will talk to you tomorrow about what you are going to do for the days left till the first contact… Sand! Guide him to his room."

"As you wish, my lord."

Speaking of demonification as awakening… it did seem that the ideals of the demons were really rotten, I was already half-disgusted by acting like a loyal subordinate of such demons, however, stopping now would be nothing but an act of immeasurable stupidity! I had to endure so I can exterminate such demons before it's too late…

As for that first contact, there was no need to worry, after all, it was either me destroying this place within the next 10 days or the Lightning Brigade moving out to destroy this place in case I failed, if worst comes to be, I wouldn't mind fighting the whole base using guerrilla warfare till the last one of them is no more!

"Follow me."

"Alright." 

I put on a fake smile, hiding my displeasure as I followed behind the skinny Sand and wondered what that rotten overseer had in mind for me...

`~~`~~`~~`

After a sleepless night of fake sleep, I continued staring at the ceiling of the black painted room which actually had a bed made of rocks, I wasn't even sure if that black color was paint of just the color of the cave itself, it seemed that if even a guest room of the overseer's small castle was this small, then the organized looking city must have been only an outer view, it seemed that the ways of the demons were still crude…

However, the overseer's actual room that we talked at yesterday looked more sophisticated, almost similar to a noble's room, that only served to prove the fact that demons weren't all stupid crude creatures, or else they wouldn't start such a deceptive corruption war, it was more accurate to say that the demons I have met so far were just the main-stream ones who acted like foot soliders, barely above the level of inferior demons, which was also my current identity, yet still weaker than the Superior demons at the level of the overseer...

Knock. Knock.

"Yes?"

"The Lord is calling for you, he will be waiting for you at the hall, don't be late."

"Alright."

Finally getting out of the rocky bed, no longer needing to fake sleep, I exited the room as I made my way back to the 'hall'.

"Oh, you are here, I hope you have had a good rest, the mystic rock bed is especially soothing to the mind, enhancing the recovery effect of sleep. That aside, let's get going, there is a place I want you to see…"

Soothing? No wonder I had goosebumps all over that night, thankfully, I wasn't foolish enough to actually sleep or else who knew how much I would be 'soothed'...

"As you wish, sir."

I followed the overseer around, until we arrived at a small cave protruding out of the wall that's close to his mini-castle, seemingly connected with long rocky veins which spread further away into the wall.

"Here we are, that's the first benefit you will be given, you will be granted entrance to the sacred room of enlightenment for the next 15 days, though that's only for one hour, most newcomers only get half of that time or even less, but I do plan to give you better grooming considering the potential and the information you hold, of course that time could increase as long as the information you will deliver proves helpful…"

Upon entering the cave, I could only see the shiny sparkles covering the walls of the cave, as both delight and astonishment covered my face...
