The next morning,
Ronan, with Black Demon, left the demonic seal castle in a carriage.
Their destination was the Emperor Palace Throne Hall, where the Demon Emperor summoned Ronan for an audience.
It was what was written in the Golden Scroll he received from Puppet Servant NO.8,430.
NO.8,430 looked at the departing carriage with a peculiar glint in his eyes. He didn't return inside the Demonic Seal Castle but headed to the herb garden at the west.
Some numberless puppet servant saw NO.8,430 doing something out of his routine and found it strange because as long as they could remember, NO.8,430 never broke his regular pattern.
However, they didn't think much about it since it might be Ronan's orders, so they minded their own business.
Yet, the truth was this NO.8,430 wasn't the real NO.8,430 but Ace impersonating NO.8,430!
