Chapter 181: City In Need

Lake was getting tired of waiting, turning to Freed he said. "I feel like they should be back by now." He didn't actually think this because he had ridden the Elevators multiple times and it took a while. He was just saying this to see if he could waste time locating other Demon Worshipers while they were waiting for the people who went to the guild to come back.

"It shouldn't be much longer." Lake had expected for Freed to say something like this so he said his prepared line. "I'm gonna go out and check the city for the rest of the time until they get back. I'm worried something might happen while we're all here." Freed seemed on board with this plan of his and said. "I'll get you a map that has some hotspots for you to check."

Freed had seen what he could do earlier so Lake was sure now that he had offered Freed was excited to see what he found. Freed came back after a few minutes of talking with other team leaders with a hand drawn map that told him where he should go. Lake took it from him and said. "Thank you."

Lake planned to look everywhere later but he didn't have as much time as he would need so going to these few places would have to do for now. As he was reading the map, Lake realized the first place was extremely close to where they were now and it made him think the one who got away probably went here.

Since finding them was his whole reason to be looking at all, Lake went straight there and used Detector to look for them. Walking past the building Lake didn't see any marks made by Detector so he switched it to just look for all Demon Worshipers real quick so he could mark this location off of his map if there was nothing here.

Seeing nothing around Lake knew it didn't mean there was actually nothing here because the base could just be empty now or much deeper than the last few so out of his range but he doubted that would be the case since such an important thing had been only about twenty feet under ground in the last base they had raided.

Lake couldn't help but smile, if it hadn't been for them he would have missed this entirely but now he wouldn't have to worry about not knowing if this was an actual place the Demon Worshipers were using and trying to sneak inside to see without freaking anyone inside out. Marking this location, Lake started to head back towards the others.

He had killed a good amount of time by doing this and he would be able to pass the rest by talking to Freed about the things he had found. Returning Lake saw that they were still waiting for the people who had gone to the guild to get help so he found Freed and started up a conversation.

Donny looked up at the stone city and couldn't help but wonder why they had made the top tier taller. A lot of the important human families lived there so it was probably a status thing and had no real use but he did think it made the city look better at a distance. The next thing he noticed was the amount of unrest in the city.

Usually the people of the Metal Domain were very calm and worked hard so seeing them make any noise told you there was something bad going on in the city. It seemed the situation had become more serious in the time it had taken him to get here. Realizing this made him feel sort of bad about the fact that the only reason he had come to help was for money.

This was where he had grown up so the fact that he hadn't really cared made him realize just how much he had changed since he had left home and wondered what the other members of his family were doing about this. If he had never left he was sure he would be with a few of his cousins as they cleared out the infestation that was the Demon Worshipers and while that seemed like what he really wanted if he thought about it there was something he had always wanted more.

Because of all the training he and his father had done together Donny had spent a lot of time listening to what his father said about the shield and how it was made as not only a test but a training method for those who had the potential to become subordinates of the God of Metal and before he had even realized the test in the shield was all he really cared about.

Being power hungry wasn't a good thing and it had led to a lot of bad decisions that at the time he hadn't thought were that big of a deal but eventually all of them had led him to becoming a person of interest for the Demon Lord and had really changed his life for the worse. Donny's mood was starting to fall so he decided he should stop thinking and get back to work.

Looking at the only other member of the Fighters guild that was with his group Donny said. "I'm going to the guild are you coming?" Donny had learned by now not to expect any words as an answer and just decided that she didn't look like she was mad at him for talking to her as a yes. With them here at the city their mission to protect people was over so they could go to the guild and get their money but he planned to actually just start helping with whatever was going on.Continue reading on No_veLbIn
