บท 1309: A Talk About Merlinus 2

-----

"So it seems a member of the cult has joined us," Erebus said. "That might give us a good insight of what has been happening recently, yes. But I am fairly sure this boy, Tomas, doesn't know all of the important information regarding Merlinus, his hideout, the cult, what they do, and also all their powers and even origins."

"Eh? Who are you…?" Tomas wondered, looking at Erebus. "I've never seen this girl before; I don't remember her from the magician tower…"

"He's Erebus," I explained. "The Demon King of Miasma's reincarnation."

"T-The Demon King of Miasma's reincarnation?!" Tomas gasped. "And you mean… a he? But I thought… Ah, sorry."

"Hmph…" Erebus crossed his arms and diverted his gaze from Tomas, directing his eyes to the rulers. "I can tell you his weaknesses, how his magic works, and more."

"So that's… the value you offer, I see…" nodded the King.
