Chapter 119

The man behind the desk, hearing what I had smiled a bit. 

"You may rise. As far as the rest of the world knows, I am dead and the dragon knights failed. Hahaha. Fools they are. These knights would never fail." The man seemed too much lighter compared to when I had seen him before. It was nice to see him though, he was the reason I was able to get into the rangers so easy and by exception the shadows.

I just had thought, really thought that the Dragon Duke was dead. Seeing him alive though made me more confused about what was happening in this place. 

The Duke seeing me thinking to myself, just smiled a bit. "You do not have to be so respectful you know? I am not a Duke anymore, I am just the secret commander of the demon slayers." His words did make me smile a bit. The secret bit was definitely correct, I doubted aside from us and a few other select members that anyone knew that he was even alive.
