Chapter 668- Invitations From The Various Factions (2)
The once beautiful attendants, who had appeared radiant and graceful, had been replaced by wretched looking beings with multiple arms and weird body shapes. Their forms distorted and their countenances twisted and grotesque.
These were the true nature of the elegant figures that attended to the demons. As for the melody that once enchanted the air, it now took on a sinister and demonic theme.
The once soothing tunes morphed into dissonant, eerie notes that evoked a sense of violence and malevolence.
As Simon stepped foot into the grand stage, an overwhelming sense of seriousness engulfed his body. He realised that this gathering will mark a turning point in his life from which there is no going back.
This was the Hexennacht, the social gathering of the demons and the pivotal juncture of his life that will determine the fate of his territory and his standing among the demon hierarchy. The stakes are high, and failure was not an option.
