"What?!" Eisenhorn suddenly yelled out before Reign pulled the sword out and kicked Raigon away.

"So, do you care to tell me where the real Raigon is, or will I need to beat the information out of you?" Reign suddenly said as he stared at the fallen Raigon who was bleeding out on the floor.

"The real one, what are talking about, Reign?!" Eisenhorn yelled out as he took out his glaive and pointed it at Reign.

"You are the real Eisenhorn, which makes this even more interesting." Reign said as he glanced at Eisenhorn before staring at Raigon again.

"How did you manage to take Raigon's place when Eisenhorn and he were right next to each other?"

"The only possibilities I can think of is that Eisenhorn is working together with you guys, or that you somehow managed to trick the two into separating for a while." Reign said before yawning a bit.

"I don't really care, to be honest, Eisenhorn not having any corruption inside his soul is enough for me to clear him of suspicion, but I do want to know what happened to Raigon, so speak."

"What the hell are you talking about, you bastard?!" Raigon suddenly shouted as blood came out of his mouth.

"Eisenhorn, he's gone insane, help me out here!" Raigon said as he stood up and started emanating mana.

"Usually Raigon wouldn't do something like that, as a Creationist, he can use his mana to will anything into being, there's no need for him to strengthen his body with mana, you idiot." Reign said before disappearing from the spot and showing up behind Raigon.

"You can copy a person's looks, and even the mana signature, but not their abilities, huh?" Reign softly asked the demon as he stabbed his sword through the chest once again. His sword came out of the chest before Reign quickly took his other sword out and stabbed it through the demon's leg, pinning it down on the ground.

"I know you won't die from this much, you demons are quite a resilient species." Reign said before taking out another sword and stabbing through the other leg as well.

"So, speak, where is Raigon, what have you done to him?" 𝘧𝒓e𝑒𝑤e𝙗𝚗o𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝐜𝐨m

"Eisenhorn, help me, he is insanse, I'm Raigon!"

"If you were, you would have used your ability much earlier, even now, you could still use it to escape, well, Raigon could." Eisenhorn suddenly spoke before putting his glaive away.

"You bastards!" The demon raged as he stared at both of them in anger. Demonic energy started being released by him before Reign suddenly grabbed his head.

A head-splitting pain suddenly assaulted the demon as the release of demonic energy was halted.

"Trying to send a signal to those three that are waiting in ambush ahead?" Reign asked the demon whose eyes suddenly widened in shock.

"Oh, yeah, I sensed them even before I had stabbed you the first time, you guys really need to work on being stealthier, simply emanating your demonic energy like that is way too easy to notice, at least for me."

"Eisenhorn, was there a point where you and Raigon had split up before coming here?"

"Yeah, we visited a couple of cities, and decided to split up and search the second one, there was nobody there."

"After that, 'he' urged me to make haste and get here as soon as possible in order to find out what's going on."

"I see, well, I already know what's going on, but we need to get back to that town, Raigon is probably there since you didn't notice anything, then he's probably fine, at least I hope he is."

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" The demon suddenly started laughing maniacally whilst staring at Reign and Eisenhorn.

"Too late, there should already be a couple of my brethren making their way over there, even if you were to run back at full speed, you won't be able to get there on time." The demon said with a bloodthirsty smile.

"Oh really?" Reign suddenly smirked before both Eisenhorn and the demon stared behind them.

A figure was approaching with great speed, his wings sending him flying incredibly fast before he stopped about 100 meters above Reign and the others.

Raigon flew down before stopping right next to Reign.

"Reign, what are you doing here?"

"You!"

"How is this possible, how did you get out of the array?!"

"Humph, to actually call that an array would be an overstatement, but I am ashamed to admit that it did take me long to figure out that there were no inscriptions for keeping mana inside of it, which allowed me to use my ability to destroy it from the outside, pretty amateurish, I must say," Raigon said as he smirked at the demon who growled in anger.

"From what I was able to tell, you guys had placed quite a lot of those arrays inside the town, there's probably more in other towns and villages, but I didn't have the luxury of finding out as I was busy trying to catch up with you."

"But now, Reign, what has happened, where is the king?" Raigon asked as Reign stared at the demon.

"Let's get rid of this guy, and the ones waiting in ambush before talking, alright?" Reign asked Raigon before continuing on, "The king is fine, he is making his way back to the army, as will we after finishing these demons up, we will talk along the way."

"Alright, let's go then," Raigon said before Reign nodded and cut the head of the demon that had been mimicking Raigon before.

He of course didn't forget to take the soul of the demon with him. He wasn't going to take any risk and allow the soul to return to their leader, informing him of what had happened.

The three of them made way to where the three demons were waiting in wait and planning to ambush them. With them already knowing about them and their location, it was relatively easy to sneak up on them.

One of the demons was a mid-grade Tier III, while the other two were low-grade Tier III demons. Reign was a peak Tier III combatant, so they stood no chance of defeating the trio.

The battle only lasted for about 2 minutes before Reign and the other two managed to defeat their enemies. One face that made all three raise an eyebrow was that one of the demons was actually one of the Tier II combatants of the enemy kingdom that had managed to flee yesterday.

With the enemy being able to raise a Tier II combatant all the way to low-grade Tier III, the situation was worrisome and dangerous to them. There was no way of knowing exactly how many Tier III combatants the enemy possessed, and they would be hard-pressed if they were to fight a lot of them at the same time.

Reign took the souls of all three of them before making his way back together with Raigon and Eisenhorn. He explains to Raigon and Eisenhorn about what was happening and how the demon had created an array that brought forth demonic energy to the two kingdoms.

With great amounts of demonic energy, the demon then used a second array that forced the demonic energy to gather in towns, villages, and cities, turning the citizens into demonic creatures that had no normal thoughts.

The two were shocked and sickened to find out about what had happened to the two kingdoms. They were also in horror after realizing that the enemy now not only had an army of a couple of million demonic creatures but also seemed to have many Tier III combatants in their ranks as well.

As Reign and the two were making their way back, Reign sensed the souls of 4 Tier III demons that were speeding toward the capital. He and the others quickly stopped before charging at them.

Defeating four Low-grade Tier III combatants was nothing special as Reign could deal with them by himself. The four were definitely the ones that were supposed to take care of Raigon back in the town he was trapped in, but since he managed to get away, the four had seemingly charged after him in order to attack him and Eisenhorn with the others.

The demons that Reign had previously killed were not nearly as powerful as the first three he had come across and cracked relatively easily after Aethion started his torture.

He was able to find out that their leader had ordered them to only attack Raigon and Eisenhorn, whilst leaving the king and Reign alone. It seemed that they had another trap laid for the two near the capital, which meant that Reign's decision to return was correct and had potentially saved the life of the king and himself.

After dealing with the four demons and taking their souls, the trio made their way back to the army. Even though they were going back without scouting out the enemy capitals, they had already gained a lot of info, not to mention claiming the lives of 8 Tier III demons.
