Chapter 416 I Am Not With The Demon, Please Save Me (Corrected)



The walls of the city were high and brown. However, the very big, broad gates were of a steel nature.

The line into the city was long, and there were many who were sent away but went back to join the line behind in hopes that the guards would slip and they would pass through.

These guards, although werewolves, were in their human state. They wore bronze armor inlaid with patterns of what Lenny was sure was a giant fish with limbs.

The pattern snaked about the armor, and it was done with such detail that it gave one the impression that the primordial beast was about to come to life.

At the gate, there were a total of nine guards, and in the surrounding area, like high on top of the wall, there were even more.

Only a few of the guards had weapons in hand, and those were just clubs with a very rough body. Obviously, for beating those who were too persistent.

Lenny did not exactly know the criteria for entering this city, but he knew that he really had to.

He was of the opinion that at first he was gathering information about the new environment, but for some reason he could not explain, something pulled him to join the queue. It was as if a voice in his head was telling him that it was okay and that he had a free pass.

He could not explain it, but it was so.

Just then, he got an alert from the Satan System.

<Mission From the Fates: Defend the City of Milk and Honey!>

<500 points across all stats>

"What the fuck!?" Lenny cursed lowly.

However, just as he was contemplating the reason for such a mission and the wild and generous number of points, Lenny realized something.

Some guards were talking to one another in a low tone.

Lenny looked around; it was the same thing for the other guards.

As these guards whispered lowly to themselves, they kept on looking in Lenny's direction.

Lenny also noticed that their grip around their clubs had tightened.

This action of theirs made him frown.

Lenny was not so dumb as to not notice their body language.

Even the constant exchange of eye contact was very noticeable.

Lenny sighed. He could tell that trouble was coming. The only problem was, from which angle? and why?

However, six of the guards suddenly approached; none of them had smiling faces.

Lenny, on the other hand, being a good actor, smiled cheerfully at them, "Is there anything I can do for you, dear sirs?"

"So you are with the demon, huh?"

Lenny suddenly realized what was going on. It was the same thing as the last time. He face-palmed, not believing that he had forgotten something so important.

It was really simple. After all, it was all about Perseus.

Lenny had forgotten about it. It was the same thing with Town Skull Head.

In fact, he was not even surprised by the approach. After all, these were werewolves.

Both of them were half-born.

While Lenny's power and nature were umbrellaed by the Satan System, Perseus was not.

The worst part was that the brute was not aware that he was a screaming 'demon-alarm'.n0VeluSB.c0m

Then again, Gladiators never thought to hide their power. If for anything, they were supposed to always release their aura so as to scare their opponent.

The word 'tame' was not one that they were familiar with.

Lenny felt like punching himself. After all, if he had just kept his mouth shut, he would not have been roped in with Perseus.

But his instinct for always taking charge of the situation had kicked in.

A bad habit that had now raised its ugly head, only to put him in significant trouble.

He quickly shook his head. "No! No!! Sir, I am not with that demon." Lenny pointed to Perseus.

However, one of the guards stepped forward, "We never said who the demon was!

"Besides... *sniff* *sniff*... you both smell the same from spending a long time with each other."

"Shit!" Lenny cursed.

However, his head entered into overdrive as he tried another method of escape.

He suddenly knelt on the ground, screaming as induced tears and snot fell from his face. "Save me! Save me! This demon kidnapped me. He imprisoned me and did unspeakable things to me."

His tears and screams were very shameless and convincing.

If this were his former world, he might even have been given an Oscar for such acting if it were turned into a movie.

He rolled on the ground and even rushed to grab the leg of one of the guards.

However, Perseus was perplexed as to what was going on.

He scratched his head in confusion. He thought maybe Lenny was having another episode again, like the one he had on the ship.

He reached for him, "Lenny, are you okay?"

However, Lenny wriggled like a slug that had been sprinkled with salt away from Perseus.

"Leave me alone, you demon! I suffer at your hands no more!" He leaned into the guard, activating his ability, 'The influencer'.

Against these guards, his improved ability showed its significance.

"So you are a demon, and you dare come to the City of Milk and Honey? You are courting death!

Instantly, the guard swung his huge club at Perseus.

His intent was to smash it on his head.

However, Perseus caught it with a hand effortlessly, "Excuse me, I think there has been a misunder..."

*Boom* He had not finished his words before another club smashed into his back from behind.

This immediately sparked his anger.

He turned around and released a swarm of lightning at the guard, blasting him away.

As one would expect, the other guards rushed at him, and as they did, they GROWLED to the sky as they changed forms, instantly becoming big white wolves.

Instantly, they surrounded Perseus.

Meanwhile, Lenny used this opportunity to slip away. After all, all eyes were now on the 'Demon'.

However, as he was slipping through the gates, something unexpected happened....
