Edwen Black

Austin opened his eyes and looked around to see himself back in the same place as before, beside the Tree of Life. Then he looked at the close tree to see Ingrid leaning on it while closing her eyes.

She looked beautiful with her tanned skin and pink hair, but he wanted to go back so he decided to get her attention as she was just closing her eyes and not sleeping.

"I'm finished, Ingrid." As he said that she opened her eyes to reveal a pair of beautiful amber orbs that seemed gentle and warm when one looked at them.

She looked at Austin and became surprised a little.

"Did you already finished? I thought you would take more time."

"Time flow differently in the soul space, it may seem like just seconds or a minute has passed but inside several hours have already passed."

"That much?!"

Austin nodded.

"Now, let's go back, I don't want to be late on Asagi and the others, I bet they are worried about me already." He said with a warm smile as he remembered his other four wives, which made Ingrid mesmerized by his smile and blush slightly which he noticed but didn't point it out to not make her more embarrassed.

Anyway, he stood up and walked toward the exit of the forest leaving the flushed Ingrid behind who snapped out of her state and immediately ran after him.

"Hey, you didn't tell me what were you doing?"

"Just something I should have done before." He said but didn't elaborate further, making her frustrated but sighed as it wasn't her place to demand things from him.

...

In skyscraper that was so tall and breathtaking.

At the last floor of that skyscraper, exactly in an office, a tall man with grey hair like needles and red blood eyes, wearing formal clothes consisted of white shirt and black tie along with black jacket on the top and matching pants, he was also wearing black formal shoes.

The man had a very irritated and angry expression on his face, his eyes glowed dangerously as his anger rose up by each passing second.

Slam!

"How the hell I lost two of my most loyal servants in a short span of time?! This is impossible!"

He slammed the office in anger breaking it in the process into two, making the papers and the laptop on it to fall down on the floor, but he didn't care about these things right now as he was so angry because he lost two of his most loyal servants, one of them was a previous Taimanin that provided him with essential information about the anti-demon association and the other was his most powerful and right hand and private secretary.

Oboro and Ingrid.

When he first lost Oboro he felt surprised and shocked because he was sure that she didn't die.

The reason?

Because he had a signal that his technique had been nullified from the target. It enabled him to track those he used it on them and know if they died or not and even could know if the technique had been broken, but he didn't consider this possibility at all because no one in this world could break his technique except some as you need a very high spiritual power to do it or have a high amount of mana which wasn't unlikely considering this world having a very limited amount of mana in the air and nature.

Although he was surprised at first, he didn't feel angry that much as he already had everything from her and was just waiting for a chance to get ride of her, but losing his most loyal and powerful servant like that, made him really angry.

He was even more shocked to know that the Corruption he planted in her soul had been nullified and purified. It was his most powerful technique to control those he consider powerful and had great potential to make them loyal to him and achieve what he wanted.

He was obsessed with Asagi considering her having the strongest spiritual power among all Taimanin beside she was so strong, he wanted to create a new world with him as Adam and her as Eve.

Beside that, he was also obsessed with her curvy sexy body, he looked at all women he had seen until now as if they were trash as he always compared them to her.

But he didn't expect an anomaly like Austin to appear and take everything from him, he took Asagi and made her his wife along with her sister, and on top of that, he was the one who broke his technique and corruption from Violet and Ingrid.

If he knew all of that, he would be burning with anger that he would cough blood.

Suddenly, someone opened the door of the office and went inside.

"Black-sama, I got the information that you asked for." The man with black hair and matching eyes wearing glasses said.

"Nagi, finally." Edwen Black, the CEO of Nomad Co. said as his anger subsided a little.

Nagi went and gave him the file that had the information he asked for while ignoring the damage that happened to the table and the office.

Edwen took the file and opened it to read and after a moment, he smiled.

"So she is married, huh." In the next moment the smile disappeared and was replace with cold and scary expression as his body trembled with anger.

"No one touch what is mine and go away easily, I will tear him apart with my own hands and throw his parts to the monsters to feast on them."

Nagi felt shiver down his spine as he felt the bloodlust leaking from Edwen, making him unable to breath and fall on his knees. It was so thick making the world turn red and Nagi could swear that he saw himself drowning in a sea of blood.

Edwen retracted his bloodlust when he saw Nagi on the floor unable to breath.

He throw the file in front of Nagi on the floor and said.

"Prepare our forces, seems I can't wait more. We will execute our plan so soon."

He stood up and looked down on the city of Tokyo through the glass window while putting his hands behind his back.

"Our target will be the elimination of the Anti-demon association and capturing Igwa Asagi no matter if she was dead or alive, rather being dead is better for me."

Nagi caught the file and stood up while fixing his clothes.

"As you wish my lord." He bowed slightly before going out of the office.

"I will get you in my hands Asagi and no one will be able to stop me even if it was your pathetic husband."

Edwen's expression was serious and solemn saying that.

Now, with the final battle between the association and the demons is nearing, the atmosphere will get serious and tense even more.
