章 103: A New Threat

After a tranquil hour of walking through the forest, he emerged at his territory's edges.

He noticed a few demons narrowing their eyes at him from their positions on the sturdy wooden walls.

They lowered their heads in respect as he passed them by. Among them, one rushed to warn their leaders about the lord's return.

Yet, he ignored them, his eyes locked on a blurring figure and its fluttering green hair.

A warm sensation spread through his chest as his lips curled into a broad smile.

"Too late. I saw you." He shook his head, amused by Luna's reaction. "I wonder how she'll act when I see her later."

Chuckling in anticipation, he continued on his way.

Paved streets replaced the forest's soft soil as the cart's wheel rhythmical spinning filled his ears until he stopped at the altar. 

Before it, his trusted subjects clapped their hands and raised their fists to celebrate his return.
