Nicholas dropped his teacup with a click on the table, before turning his Amber eyes at his father who was sitting beside him on the bed.
William gracefully stood at the edge, keeping his presence close in case the mayor might need something.

"But you're fine now and the venom has successfully gotten out of you, you'll heal with time."
"Then what about the Demon?" His gaze turned cold as he asked, recalling he was on his way back from an important meeting to Ark Ville when the Demon showed up, creating an unforgiving terror.
"We killed it." William spoke up this time around, "It was a soulless demon, so it was quite easy to get rid of."
"Did you use the spell to confirm if there were more of them?"
William nodded, "yes, and there was no sign of them."
