- At night in the outer city -
The streets in the outer city look different than usual. Since this incident, the roads have become very crowded with guards roaming around with a ball of light surrounding them, making the night view look like a modern city on earth.
In one of the small alleys, the place where ordinary slaves or demons lived, as usual, two guards would guard the short passage.
The two guards are very focused; even a mosquito perches and drinks their blood; they just leave it alone.
After the mosquito was full, the mosquito went away and made one of the guards sigh.
"How many days have we been doing this boring job?"
Asked the guard, who sighed earlier to the friend who was beside him. The guards' eyeballs were red, and there were also substantial black eye bags under their eyes.
Before answering, he looked down at his friend and disdain.
"Hump, this is a small task, but you can't stand it; how can you become a part of the army?." He snorted in reply and refocused on watching the area around him.
Hearing this, his friend who asked became angry.
"Don't act; look at your shaking legs. Hump!"
Immediately, he argued, "Impossible !! You see that my hand, which is still strong, even this spear can thrust enemy right away and my eyes that can still see even if an ant passes in front of me…."
* thump *
But while they talked, they heard a sound like something being dropped from a height came from behind them, which immediately alerted them.
Their eye meets and nodded to each other.
"You check what it is; I'll guard it here."
"Why not-" he wanted to argue, but his friend stuck out his hand in front of his face.
"-Just do it; what if the officer comes and sees the guards here empty. We will be punished for guarding again!"
Thinking of this, he nodded his head.
"Okay, I'll leave it to you." After saying that, he entered the small alleyway to check on the demons.
When his friend entered, the other guard smiled slyly.
"Hehehe ... it's time for me to relax." He put his spear to the side and sat on the road, leaning against the building at the back to relax.
…
After countless minutes, he woke up only to see that his friend had yet to come.
"Hmm? I thought he won't let me relax?"
Seeing that his friend hadn't come yet, strange thoughts appeared in his head. He imagines that his friend was having fun with the demons.
"Ah ... that's disgusting, looks like I have to call him before the officer arrives."
Following his friend's path, he headed for the small alley, leaving the guard at the front of the passage empty.
...
Arriving at the end of the alley, he saw something very horrendous. His friend was lying on the ground, and also he saw a person with a black mask, putting some Demon children into sacks.
"WHO ARE-"
Before he finished speaking, the masked person suddenly closed his mouth.
Due to the swordsman's passive skill, he immediately brushed off the masked man's hand, threw away his weapon, and wanted to hit the masked man's stomach.
* creak *
But what he hoped for was not achieved, but instead, punching the masked man in the stomach, he felt that something was hitting his neck until he slowly lost consciousness.
.

"I almost got caught. " Desmond is the masked man who was taking a couple demons.
"Just overcoming one guard is very difficult; I have to get used to it.
Let's check if all the demons have entered. "
He slowly walked to the large pouch containing few demon children. Opening the bag, Desmond then counted the number of demons he was carrying.
"1 ... 2 ... 3 ... 5 looks like this is enough, let's do this again." Taking the sword lying on the ground, Desmond then sheathed his sword and slowly lifted the pouch.
"1 ... 2 ... 3 ... aarrrrg."
All the veins coming out, and his face began to turn red. Desmond slowly tried to walk forward, but the pouch only lifted slightly.
* thump *
"Haaah ... .. hahaha," panting breath, while looking at the bag that only moved slightly from its original position.
"This ... impossible."
Desmond then reopened the pouch containing the demon. It could be seen that a pile of demon children was crammed together.
When seeing this, he had an idea.
"It doesn't have to be a body full of blood, right? At least I can take only one and leave the others. "
He looked around, where the guards and other adult demons were lying on the ground.
"If I come back, it's possible that after this, the guards will become tighter.
System, scan the surrounding area, try not to touch the wizard or witch energy. "

"Sigh ... limited time, limited choice."
He then took out the demons that he thought were unhealthy one by one. After choosing a Demon child who he thought was healthy and fit, Desmond tried to lift the bag again.
"1 ... 2 ... 3 sets."
This time he quickly lifted the pouch-like never before.
"Custom spell: Light Distrosion."
Slowly his body began to disappear along with the pouch he was carrying. He followed the small alley until he reached the main road.
Lucky, this spell doesn't have to use your hands to activate it.
Body enchantment 3x.
After that, Desmond ran while heading towards the main gate.
* swoosh * * swoosh *
Moving like a cheetah, he fought the wind making some of the dust on the road fly.
I hope there aren't any wizards at the gates, even if there's impossible for them to find out about me. Luckily all the Masters had already gone into the beast territory and only left Grimm to stay.
…
After several minutes of walking, Desmond finally arrived at the dividing gate between the outer city and the inner city.
Seeing a gate this big and the guards guarding it made Desmond nervous as he repeatedly swallowed his saliva.
I hope it works ...
Desmond then took slow steps forward until he finally managed to get between the guards.
Meanwhile, the guards guarding the gate didn't notice the strange thing around.
"Hey."
The guard's voice made Desmond's steps stop; he turned to the source of the sound and saw the guard approaching.
Desmond indirectly stepped away from him and saw the other side that the guard was actually calling his friend.
A chance
Desmond immediately ran forward towards the inner city, scattering the dust in the surrounding area. This also caused the guard, who had initially wanted to approach his friend, to stop and see the dust scattered in the air.
…
Luckily this gate is open. Otherwise, I might have to throw this bag away and get it tomorrow.
