Chapter 209: My evil, cunning, kidnapper Demon Lord

"Is this why you asked Heraz to follow the Hero?" Natha asked after Heraz left the room to get on with his new mission.

"Yeah, why else would I care about him?" I shrugged. "I need to track when they would arrive in the Lair and contact you."

And avoid a potential bloodbath--but I didn't tell him that. 

"Huh..."

Natha made a face as if he was in a daze, like he was thinking of his past attitude and probably regretting it a bit. I shifted closer to poke his cheek and grinned. "Hehe...do you finally realize your jealousy is ridiculous?"

He raised his brow at my words and twisted his lips for a bit. Was he feeling embarrassed? I did not really know how he looked when he was embarrassed because he had been preventing me from looking at it. 

"No," he replied dryly, making his face flat.
