Tranquil Summit Hotel was situated near the church. It was mainly for people who were on a pilgrimage. The pope of the church could be considered the head of this hotel.
For this very reason, this hotel had a relatively low price for staying for the night. However, the only people who could enjoy this low price were devoted humans who had come to this Wrihull City for the church. freewebnovel.co(m)
Currently, Lennox Rees stayed in this hotel undercover as a priest.
It was currently the night time now, and Azaroth and Tronte were quietly going towards this hotel.
Azaroth was a little dissatisfied with their walking pace, but he knew he had to match Tronte's speed. Only Tronte knew the precise room location of Lennox Rees.
After an hour or so, Azaroth and Tronte reached the hotel. They hid in the nearby bushes as they saw some men ahead of them.
In fact, these men were patrolling the perimeter of the Tranquil Summit Hotel.
"Fifteen 3-Star Rank Guards. Moreover, two of them even have sensory skills. It will be tricky to get past them all without alerting anyone." Tronte softly summarized.
Azaroth had naturally noticed them all as well. This security was just slightly below that of the Rhodes Family Mansion.
"Good thing I came prepared. Take this. And under no circumstances are you to flare your Ardor." Tronte pulled out a glass bottle and handed a black-colored round pill to Azaroth.
'A minor suppression pill? This will only work for those with an Ardor of 3 Star Rank or below that power. I guess I will have to manually suppress my Triquetra Ardor.'
"This pill will suppress your Ardor and keep it to the bare minimum level. It will be such that the sensors won't be able to find us out. Alright, quickly take it, and let's go." Tronte said while gulping down the pill immediately.
Azaroth also gulped down that pill and started to suppress his Ardor.
"Alright, wait for my signal. I will go ahead and tell you when to come in."
"No. I have a better idea. Tell me where the room is, and I will deliver the letter quickly before returning." Azaroth sternly said to Tronte.
"What are you talking about? It will be too dangerous for you alone! In fact, I didn't even want to bring you along for this task. I could have done it alone." Tronte didn't look convinced that he should let Azaroth do this task alone.
Azaroth shook his head and confidently spoke, "Listen, if we both go in, it will be more dangerous. Just let me go alone. I assure you that I am more than sufficient to finish this task."
"…" Tronte remained quiet for a short period before he finally nodded his head, "Alright. I will let you go in alone. But if something happens, I will distract the guards so that you can escape."
"That's acceptable," Azaroth replied with a nod, "Now tell me the room number."
"Third floor, 304 room. You can see it from the other side of this hotel. It's on the top right corner of the hotel." Tronte replied to Azaroth.
Just as Azaroth was about to leave, Tronte added, "Also, if Lennox Rees is there, make sure to not enter the room. We can't let him know of your real identity."
"Don't worry about that. Let me handle this." Azaroth reassured him before running towards the other side of the hotel.
He wasn't going straight towards the other side, but he was circling his way to the other side of the hotel.
Once he was on the other side, he stared at the guards in his way who were patrolling around.
"Shadow Movement."
A darkish aura flooded over Azaroth's body as he ran towards the hotel. Even though he was mere meters away from the guards, they still took no note of him and let him get past themselves.
Once he was near the Hotel's walls, Azaroth concentrated some of his Ardor in his legs. He quietly started walking on the Hotel's walls.
This all seemed far too easy to Azaroth as he effortlessly reached Lennox Rees's room.
Just as his sensing skill had told him, there was indeed a man sleeping inside this room.
Azaroth flooded Demonic Ardor over his body to keep everything as a blur to Lennox Rees's eyes.
Lennox Rees was merely a Rank 3 Warrior, so there was no way he could see through Azaroth's skill.
Now, Azaroth's task was simple. He just had to leave the letter on the table.
But instead of pulling out a letter, Azaroth went over to Lennox Rees and grabbed his mouth tightly.
Lennox Rees was utterly astonished as he felt someone holding his mouth with great strength.
He tried to open his mouth and let out a voice, but not even a whimper could escape from his mouth.
Moreover, the person he saw was entirely shrouded with a dark aura that just scared Lennox Rees shitless.
He had felt a dark aura similar to this one before. It was from the curse his daughter was infected with. And it instantly allowed him to conclude that this thing before him was a demon.
The only difference between this dark aura and the dark aura he sensed from his daughter was that this dark aura was much more sinister. It meant that this demon was far superior to the one who had hurt his daughter.
"You should know what I am, right human?" Lennox Rees heard that arrogant voice from the demon.
Lennox Rees was far too scared right now. Moreover, because of the large hand holding his mouth, he couldn't even speak right now.
"The terror in your eyes looks rather sweet. It appears that you do know what I am." The hand that had been holding Lennox Rees's mouth slowly loosened and Lennox Rees took deep breaths and coughed a little before staring at this dark thing.
The dark aura was so dense that he couldn't make out just how this demon looked. This wasn't especially strange since demons did use techniques similar to this to scare humans.
After he had coughed out for some seconds, Lennox Rees slowly raised his head and looked at what appeared to be the head of the demon, "Lord Demon, w-why are you targeting me? W-What have I done to earn your wrath?"
"What have you done to earn my wrath? You are quite stupid, human. You think you can do anything which would anger me?!" Azaroth's voice seemed to shake the room in that second.
Lennox Rees was utterly scared, and he backed away once he heard those words.
Azaroth looked at his pitiful look and finally said, "You can stand now. I didn't come here to kill you or curse you. Your importance lies in something much greater."
Those words only served to confuse Lennox Rees as he began thinking of the meaning behind Azaroth's words.
Azaroth threw a ring at Lennox Rees and spoke, "Take this. Give it to the Glerian Kingdom's King and tell him that I want to start a business deal with him. The things in this ring are just a tiny amount of what I possess. If he wants more, tell him to send a lot of demonic crystals holding a lot of energy."
Lennox Rees was quite surprised when he grabbed hold of the ring Azaroth had given him.
He used his spiritual sense to see what is inside. Moments later, he was utterly shocked as he saw hundreds of elemental crystals holding a lot of elemental energy. Some of them even possessed pure Ardor and could be used to recover a martial artist's Ardor.
'And this is just a small hint of what he possesses?! Just how rich is this demon?!' This question immediately appeared in Lennox Rees's mind.
Well, the wealth of a former Demon God was undoubtedly going to be incomprehensible for a businessman such as Lennox Rees.
"I-I will do as you order, Lord Demon." Lennox Rees knew well enough just what he had to do in this situation.
The task he had been assigned wasn't that dangerous for him. In fact, he realized that as long as he survived this situation, the future wouldn't be all that bad for him.
"Good. At least you have some sense in yourself. Get out of this town as quickly as possible. If I find you here tomorrow morning, I will kill you. Also, I will visit your town shortly. Until then, find the demon who has cursed your daughter. I need detailed information at that time." Azaroth's eyes glowed a little as he mentioned the last part.
Lennox Rees fearfully nodded his head and promised that he would have all the information at that time. free webno vel
Azaroth continued to stare at him and suddenly flared up his demonic energy. Lennox Rees couldn't handle all that power concentrated on himself and collapsed on his bed.
Meanwhile, Azaroth went out of the hotel from the way he came. Basically, through the window.
He went the same way he arrived, so there was absolutely no problem.
Tronte was in that same spot as before. He looked slightly surprised to see that Azaroth had come back without sounding the alarm. In reality, he had been prepared to distract the guards and create an opportunity for Azaroth to escape.
However, it seems that he was thinking only about the worst-case scenario while Azaroth had already accomplished the best-case scenario.
"You finished up?" Tronte dryly asked the question. He was just asking this for the sake of it.
"Yeah."
