Demigods

Chapter 36

"What?"

"He's an Erokh demon" murmured Lio.

"Erokh's Devil? What's that like?" nada was confused.

"The devil eats the human heart. He can rule over humans and take advantage of their greed" Lio explained.

As Lio looked towards the room. Suddenly Vernan looked towards them.

Lio quickly pulled Nada to hide.

"We'd better get out of here first" whispered Lio, Nada nodded.

In a hurry, they returned to their room. However, on the way there. They were shocked by some guards.

"God. Is this gonna be a problem again?" mummified Nada.

"Why are you guys hanging around here?" said one of the guards.

"We ... Just looking for fresh air" said Nada.

"You can't wander around. You guys should stay in your room"

"Heh, I'm a customer but you treat me like a prisoner. Is there something you're hiding? Or do you have other plans for me?" said Lio.

"What are you talking about. Nothing is hidden here. Go to your rooms"

Tone unintentionally glanced at Lio's hand. Lio was seen flicking his finger while staring at the two bodyguards.

"alright. I will return" said Lio Lalau leaving from there.

Tone immediately followed Lio behind him.

"What did you just do?"

"What?"

"I saw you snap a finger. You look like you're trying to kill them"

"Oh, so you see it. I'm just trying my powers. And nothing happened. I'm still wondering why this could happen"

Nada immediately stood in front of Lio stopping his steps.

"What?"

"Show me" Nada said as she looked at Lio.

"What?" lio was confused.

"Your strength. Show me your strength. Show it again" whine Nada.

Swooss

In an instant appeared a blue-colored flame on Lio's body.

"Wooahh" muttered Nada in amazement. He extended his hand to touch Lio.

"Don't touch" Lio said.

"Huh?" Tone stopped his hand in front of Lio's face.

"You can burn to ashes"

"Oh" Tone pulled back his hand. "You can get it out now. So ... Why can't they in front?"

The flames slowly shrank into Lio's body.

"Eitherway. I still don't know either. Better, let's go back now. There's something important I need to talk to you about"

Lio walked back to the room.

"What's really going on?" said Nada shortly after Lio closed the door.

Lio pulled Nada's hand and led her to the corner of the room.

"Listen. You have to help me" whispered Lio.

"Help what?''

"Bring me a silver dagger"

"What?"

"Huh ..." Lio sighed softly. "He is the devil Erokh. He mastered the human soul and harnessed their greed in order to control humans. What did you see she was drinking?"

"The blood of the crow"

"Comm ... It was one way that he could remain in the human body"

"You mean he got into Vernan?" muttered Lio.

"What's? Then ..."

"He made Vernan's body his dwelling place. Now, we just need to force him out of that body"

"How is it?" nada was confused.

"Silver batter. With that thing, I had to cut off his neck in order to get out of that human body"

"You told me to bring you the silver dagger? How come?" said Nada. "We can't even hang around here"

"Hemm .." muttered Lio while thinking of something. "I know one way"

Lio also discussed his plan in a whisper. After that, they came back out of the room.

They went to the place they were. The place where he met Vernan.

In the room was already seen Vernan and Luis sitting on a sofa.

"Oh, Mr. Lio" said Luis.

"I advise you to stay here before the transaction" Vernan said without turning his head while fiddling with his fingernails.

"Why do you want to lock us up?" said Lio. "I'm a customer not a prisoner"

"God ... Didn't I tell you. Before the transaction is successful you can't get out of here"

"When are you gonna get it?"

"Tonight"

"Rem ... I'm on business. If he's out for a while and then tonight's back, what can it be?"

"No"

"How's this? It seems like this demon cannot be compromised"

"Two hours. If he doesn't come back in two hours you can do anything"

"Huh?" mummy Nada can't believe it.

"Is he crazy? Where can it be two hours? God, he's got me in trouble"

Vernan also grinned. "alright. Then he can go. But remember, only two hours"

Lio glanced at Nada to tell her to leave immediately. Tone looked at Lio irritatedly, then immediately ran out.

Vernan simply stared at Nada with a meaningful smile.

"You're not planning on making him run away, are you? Remember, you've got to hand him over to me"

Lio also went to sit down to a chair.

"of course. What about what I asked for? Can you find him?"

"Hehe" Vernan grinned. "Don't underestimate me. I also did not believe in the descendants of gods. But, I just saw it for myself"

"What does that mean?" Mumbled Lio while staring at Vernan flatly.

"Oh yeah? Why don't you catch him"

"Awhile more. Soon I'll catch him" Vernan said, leaning his back. "You know" continued Vernan while taking a deep breath. "There was once a goddess who descended from the sky. He traveled the earth and met a hermit. A very powerful hermit. They were married and had children" Vernan explained.

"The descendants of them are called the descendants of the gods. A Goddess and a magic hermit. So perfect. You know, it turns out that the descendants of the god were destined to kill the demons. So, the Goddess and hermit as well as her descendants were killed by the king of all demon kings" he continued and stood up from his place.

"Unfortunately ..." Vernan walked slowly towards Lio. "There was one of their descendants who managed to escape. For hundreds of years, the devil kept looking for the offspring but did not get it" Vernan glanced at Luis.

"And now I find him. But, what do you want with the god's descendants?"

"That's a secret. I was just researching something" Lio said.

"Good" Vernon walked backwards. "But you won't get it"

"What?"

"After I arrest him, there is or is no transaction between us. He's still mine"

Lio just silently looked at what Vernan was going to do.

Suddenly dozens of bodyguards surrounded Lio.

still the same, Lio looked calm and not riled at all.

"Hehe, you think I'm stupid. Do you think I didn't know you were sneaking into my private room? You already know my identity. So don't expect to get out of here."

"Did? You sneaky shit" muttered Lio.

"For the girl ... He's very special. Two hours is enough for my men to catch him back" Vernan said with a satisfied smile. "Kill him''
