章節 126: Chapter 126: Marquis

Aengus and Bella settled the thousands of demons temporarily in the Fortress City's military barracks. They had come a long way, leaving their family behind for now, with the hope of building a new foundation here—if they could make enough contributions to the city.

The atmosphere at the barracks was tense, a strange air of unspoken rivalry lingering. The joined soldiers kept their behavior in check after a stern reminder from both Bella and Aengus, but there was an undeniable sense of competition. They engaged in small talk, mostly to gauge each other's strength.

Bella's side boasted nearly a dozen elder demons and around ten thousand lesser and greater-ranked demons, twice the number Aengus had brought with him. Together, they formed a formidable force, one that could significantly bolster the Marquisate's strength.
