Chapter 24 - The Maid's Courtyard

They couldn't understand what just happened because Devon was still walking, so how did his hand pass through the other party body like there was no one there.

Devon continued walking but with each step, he took the guard who was on the floor could feel his body crumbling. At first, it was his right arm that began to crack first before everything was finally ripped apart. Then the same happened to his left leg till it was also ripped off.

Blood was splattered all over the ground of the housing estate.

The other guards watched everything from afar, not even bothering to go help their partner out. This scene wasn't surprising to any of them, as it was every man for himself in this world.

"Please save me!" the guard who was on the floor managed to shout out those three words before he fainted on the ground.

Devon looked behind him and smiled at what just happened, he turned around walking out of the estate with the eyes of all the members and guards looking at him.

"Wheeeewww, the voice did you see what I just did right there," Devon spoke to the voice in his head.

"Where did you learn that from?"

The voice asked Devon with a serious tone.

"I.....i....i." Devon was about to say something when he stopped and realized that he didn't have anything to say to the question the voice asked him.

He could remember what he just did back there, but he couldn't remember how he did it or where he learned it from. To him, he felt like the ability just happened the moment the guard tried touching him.

Things were beginning to get weird....

Devon stepped inside the inner compound and closed his eyes, enjoying the celestial energy gushing through his body. Though it wasn't as good as the one he gets at the main compound, but it was far better than the energy of the outer compound.

He brought out a map from his storage ring, It was the alliance map he bought from the voice some days ago. Devon stared at the map for a while and returned it to his ring.

"Who the hell made flying prohibited in all the compounds," Devon muttered in a voice that only he could hear.

The alliance regarded flying in any of the compounds to be a sign of disrespect to their ancestors. It made them feel like they were walking on the graves of their ancestors, so they banned it. It was one of the forbidden rules of the alliance as if a member was caught flying he or she would be sentenced to death instantly.

It took a while, but Devon finally arrived at his destination because he had to transform into his real self, so it took time.

The maid's courtyard.....

This was one of the most important places in the alliance. Throughout the alliance, this was the place that had the most information about anything that was happening, both in and out of the alliance. It was also the place with the least security and the scariest.

Someone once said taking control of the maid's courtyard was the same as taking control of half of the alliance itself.

..... Devon pushed the door of the courtyard open, which revealed something that was beyond decent. This place was just too neat and quiet, but what made it weirder was that all the houses here were white.

"Hmmmmmm." Devon walked inside the courtyard elegantly, he wasn't going to be fooled by all this. The whole scene made him even more vigilant.

"Contractor is being watched."

A smile appeared on Devon's face, now he was sure that there was something very strange about the so-called maids' courtyard.

According to his map, the maid's courtyard had a receptionist office where people are being attended to. It didn't take long for Devon to find where the place was.

"Hello, hello, is anyone here?" Devon asked. If he didn't see the receptionist board out there, he would have thought this was the wrong place. The office was empty.

The voice kept notifying him the whole time, it even got to a time that he knew the exact number of people watching him. He waited for a considerable amount of time, but still, no one answered him. He turned around and was about to make his way out of the office.

"Aiden, please seat, we will attend to you very soon." Devon's heart skipped a beat when he heard his name, but then he relaxed this was the maid courtyard which member information didn't they know.

The office was empty, but immediately after the woman spoke, everything began to form out of celestial energy. A chair then a desk followed, it didn't take long before everything was set, and it now resembled a regular receptionist's office.

Devon stood there, his pride didn't make him sit on the chair. He felt it was beneath him to obey someone who didn't speak to him face to face.

Half an hour later, a middle-aged woman walked out from one of the walls. It seemed that was her way to making a grand entry. This woman's body made Devon swallow his saliva, she had a slender waist accompanied by a voluptuous curve and a clean set of glasses.

Devon licked his lips at the woman's body, to him, a milfs body was one of the best dishes in the world.

If it was some years back, it would have been very hard for him to have this kind of mindset, but after signing the contract with the devil everything about him seemed to be changing.

"Voice what is happening!" Devon could feel that the atmosphere had changed, even the woman who was walking towards him had stopped. She just stood there like a statue, he looked around and realized that everything had stopped moving. There wasn't even any celestial energy.

It seemed like time itself had frozen.....

"Congratulation on entering adulthood, Devon Reid."
