Chapter 242 Upgraded Quest

The man in the military uniform stood there confidently, there was a smile on his face that looked at Zain, and taking no chances, Zain had the weapons tied onto his back. He would often do this rather than keep them in his system when he was out on missions and this was a pretty big one.

"Hey, the rest of you can come out as well, I know you're all there." The soldier stated.

The group did nothing until Zain was the first that eventually spoke.

"Just come out, but don't get too close." Zain ordered.

Hiding behind pillars, large platforms, and more they came out one by one and were looking at the soldier. They didn't know why, but this human gave them the shivers when looking at him.

Maybe it was the fact that he was so confident in this situation, but how could a human, apart from Sarah, be so confident like this. They knew he wasn't a Reborn from the smell coming off him.

"What's with the silence, you were following me because you wanted to know something, or find out something. Maybe you were even ordered to do this, so speak?" The man said.

"Who are you?" Zain asked.

It was a simple question, there was a good chance that this person didn't know them. Since they had never seen each other in the Reborn group.

"Who am I? Don't you think you should say who you are first, but I guess I can already see that." The man said. "All of you are zombies, considering the way you are moving around and the area we are in, a safe guess would be that you are part of the Reborn group.

"Don't be so shocked, I am on good terms with Sarah, we understand each other. At least I thought we did, until I saw you guys."

Based on these words, Zain had figured out that this man didn't know whether or not Sarah had sent them after him. Which would mean they weren't friends, but just had some type of deal with each other.

"We weren't sent by Sarah, we followed you on our own accord. We've never seen you before, so why are you and Sarah meeting up?" Zain asked again.

This question had caused the man to break out into a laugh.

"I see a curious bunch, but if Sarah didn't send you, then it means you know absolutely nothing about me, and if you guys were to disappear, then she would know nothing about it either."

The others took a step back out of instinct. It was the look in the person's eyes again. The fact of being in this situation and showing no fear, to the point where he could even threaten others.

"You're a little wrong." Zain said. "I know a little about you. You have met up with Sarah more than once before. When you come to the Reborn base you come alone. Sarah wishes to hide you from the others for some reason.

"Based on your military uniform you aren't of significant rank so you hold no power in the military either."

"Oh, you got those facts right, but that doesn't tell you who I am?" the man replied.

"You travelled on your own to the Reborn group, you have no weapons on you either. Most likely, since it's dark outside at the moment, it means you don't fear what comes out at night.

"All of these things could be cleared up if you were a Reborn, but you don't smell like us. Lastly, your identity is a Diamond card reward."

The others were following Zain a little bit, as well as the man until the last sentence, because they had no clue what he meant by this.

"All of these things mean one thing, you are a demon."

"A demon!" Dab shouted hearing those words. "Why… why would Sarah be meeting up with a demon?"

"That's probably what Zain wants to find out. Why has she been meeting with the demons in secret? The beings that kill humans and zombies without a second thought!" Kun shouted.

The man started to clap, echoing in the tunnel loudly.

"I would give you 4 out of 5 stars for your deduction. You were close, but there's one important part that you missed out. A demon making deals with the Reborn group, do you really think I was just any demon?"

Sprouting out from the military man's back, several tentacles could be seen. Unlike the four or six that demons would usually have, there were so many on each side, that it almost looked like the demon had a pair of giant wings.

The skin started to rip from the man's head, and fall off to the ground, it was torn by the forearms, and all over, until there was nothing left. All they could see now was the demon's brown skin, and body.

However, not just the amount of tentacles were different about this demon, but also its size, it was two times bigger than a regular demon, and in the subway station, the top of its wing-like tentacles were almost touching the ceiling.

[You have discovered who the mystery man is.]

[You have come across a Demon Leader]

'A Demon leader, so Sarah was trying to make some type of deal, but what, what does she have to offer them and what can they do for each other?' Zain thought.

[New quest received: Escape the Demon leader]

[Reward: Diamond card]

[New Quest received: Defeat the Demon leader]

[Reward: Master card]

'A master card… that's a reward I've never seen before. If this was a game I would try getting it in a heartbeat, but we only get one chance in real life.'
