The Devil WithInn 28 Chasing After Her 3

At first, they didn't recognize the man in red. They never had a clear view of his face because they were busy focusing on survival. But they were stunned when they saw him closely.

He looked absolutely enchanting!

He had long black hair that flowed and shined freely like silk. And his gray eyes looks absolutely mesmerizing and mysterious. One could lose oneself in his gaze alone. He was clothed with red robes that made him look like an Immortal, devilishly alluring. But, for some reason, as they looked at his red robes, they felt that it was familiar.

The team looked at each other as it registered in them.

That man!

He was that man in red!

The one sitting by the boulder!

He's alive?!

He was able to escape but he returned. He must be strong!

"Save us! We'll do anything!" Renee screamed again but for some reason, her dazed eyes were stuck to his face.

The man raised an eyebrow at their 'request'.

They had no second thoughts about using him but now they ask him to save them?

Shameless! Truly shameless!

Nevertheless, he decided to comply for now.

The bear froze when it saw the man again. But before it can even recovered its senses, the King leaped gracefully and gently touched the bear's forehead with his finger.

"Sleep." The King muttered.

The bear felt a cooling sensation coming from his finger that spread towards its whole body. Soon, the sensation felt so relaxing that it immediately fell asleep.

The team looked at the King with their mouths agape.

One finger! He knocked it down with just a single finger!

They looked at the man in awe, completely forgetting the fact that they used him as a scapegoat.

Nol was the first to recover his senses as he tapped Rod.

"Let's go."

They all nodded and was ready to sneak out when a voice suddenly spoke up.

"Move one step and I'll make sure you'll all regret it."

The murderous tone it had made the whole team freeze in their spots.

The King approached them and was about to ask something when he noticed 4 other familiar auras present. But apart from being momentarily stunned, he acted normally.

"Sit." He ordered. The team was filled with fear so they obeyed willingly.

"You." The King pointed at George. "You were with a woman in a cave?"

George looked at the rest of the team, asking for advice if he will admit the truth or not.

But it seems like the rest of the team had another plan up ahead.

"Respected Sir." Renee spoke sweetly, batting her eyelashes in a seductive manner. "Your purpose must be for little Georgie here."

She giggled lightly and approached the man.

"Why don't you let us go....." She trailed off sweetly before continuing. "... and we'll give you little Georgie here?"

She tried reaching out to touch his arm but he held her back with a stare.

"Never touch me." He said with disgust. He flicked his sleeves at her as he backed away. This made her retreat back to the team, her ears were tinted with red from embarra.s.sment. She was confident of her seduction skills and her body but this man didn't even change his blank look nor even look her way.

"I have no need for such dealings. I can easily force you to cooperate. Besides, even if you give him to me, and you all leave, it will still result to your deaths." He said while looking at the four Reapers behind them.

The Reapers knelt down in his presence, waiting to see if their King would bestow a momentary pardon for the humans they were a.s.signed to harvest.

"10 minutes from now." The King said, looking at the numbers changing above their heads. "You will meet a pack of Lightning Tigers as you try to escape."

The team didn't believe him, but after a few minutes, they felt multiple eyes watching them from the distance. It made them feel on edge and made them believe in his words a bit.

"So, now, do you still wish to escape? Or do you wish to save us all the trouble and cooperate?"
