Standoff and change
"All of this sounds really nice," Crassian sighed before lowering his head and raising his hand to rub its back.
For a moment he stood in this lowered position, just rubbing the back of his head as if thinking hard.
But then, as he raised, merely a small, empty smile adorned his lips and looked up.
"But I fail to believe this is how you invade my land if a talk is all you wanted."
Crassian didn't need to signal his men.
And in a single second, despite numbering seven to nearly two hundred, the demon generals stood on alert.
"And I've noticed," the smile vanished as he stared Leo directly in the eyes, "all your plans depend on your ability to defeat me."
After vanishing, Crassian's smile appeared again, but this time… different.
This time, it was actually full of one, simple emotion.
Amusement.
