The War God's Homecoming novel Chapter 120

Chapter 120 Envoy From the Place of Darkness

"Tell me, why did you want to capture Rakshasa alive? I'll spare your life if you tell me!" Billy demanded.

Ever since the incident in the park of Ozin, where Rakshasa had forced Flame Enchantress into a corner and threatened to kill herself, Billy had been suspicious. He couldn't understand why someone seeking revenge would bother capturing their target instead of just killing them outright.

It was clear that Rakshasa was hiding something important.

"The Place of Darkness has been searching for something very valuable. It might be on her..." Devil of Blood replied as he ran.

"What is it?" Billy furrowed his brow. He knew things were never that simple.

"It's... a map," Devil of Blood continued.

"What kind of map?"

"I don't know either. I've only heard about it and never seen it myself." Devil of Blood replied loudly.

"Do you think I'm seven years old?" Billy snapped back. "You sent people all the way to Glavale to capture Rakshasa without even knowing what kind of map it is?"

"I swear it's true." Devil of Blood insisted. "There are many people like me who are searching for this mysterious map because there's a huge reward offered for finding it."

"Who put out this reward?" As he spoke, Billy closed in on him until he was only twenty or thirty meters away from him at most.

"I don't know, I'm afraid no one in the Place of Darkness knows that." Devil of Blood added hastily before continuing with desperation in his voice, "Please let me go! That's all I know!"

"From the moment you sent someone to Ozin, your fate was already sealed. In your next life, be a good citizen!" Billy responded in a deep voice.

With that said, Billy wielded his blade.

"No..." Devil of Blood shouted out desperately.

Just then, a majestic force came crashing from the side and collided with Billy's blade, producing a deafening roar.

Devil of Blood was pulled back from the gates of hell.

"Hmm?" Billy narrowed his eyes slightly and turned to look at a man who was walking towards him from not far away.

The man was wearing black robe attire, skull mask, with a fierce chill enveloping him. He should be a Tier-two Warlord.

"Mr Messenger, kill him! He's one of Glavale's men who caused trouble in the Place of Darkness a year ago!"

Hearing the words of Devil of Blood, a hint of surprise flashed in that man's eyes. He looked up at Billy and asked, "Are you Commander Gardner from Glavale?"

"Give me your name!" Billy narrowed his eyes again.

"Nameless nobody, you can leave if you want to!" The man spoke coldly. "But Devil of Blood cannot die. If you try to stop me from killing him, I'll owe you a favor!"

"Sorry, I don't need you to owe me anything," Billy said calmly. "Today, no matter who comes, I'm taking his life! If you don't want to get into trouble, it's best to leave now. I can let it go and not argue with you!"
