“Portal, black robes, underlings of the Thousand-Eyed Demon…”
Wayne received Do’s message and wondered why the demon’s underlings would be targeting Kristen. He had encountered them before. Every single one of them was foul-mouthed and quick to act on orders made by their lower head.
Londan had no shortage of service providers. If they were feeling pent-up frustration, they could’ve just paid to satisfy their needs. It didn’t make sense for them to go to such lengths at the risk of exposing the Thousand-Eyed Demon’s plan. They only had one life and wouldn’t have the guts for that.
Wayne couldn’t figure out the reason, but perhaps the Church of Heavenly Father might know something. Tonight, he’d pass the information to Mona and let the church worry about it.
Late that night, he emerged from the sewers and nodded at the small truck parked in front of Mona’s house. Even a starved camel was bigger than a horse[1], as they said. The church had prepared everything he needed in only one day.
He opened the car door and slipped into the passenger seat. When he noticed Mona in the driver’s seat with an expression that screamed she had seen through him, he snorted in annoyance.

“Somewhere secluded. This place isn’t suitable for opening a portal,” Wayne said slowly. “And remember to add ‘master’ next time. You’ve been captured and enslaved by me. You must show you’re conflicted rather than maintaining your poker face.”
