"Good boy."

The self-proclaimed master walked forward and aimed to pat Leviathan's head, but was blocked by Leviathan's right arm. He then proceeded by twisting his wrist and grabbing Leviathan's forearm with his hand. The master then used it to pull Leviathan towards him. With his free hand, he stroke Leviathan's scalp and retreated, before Leviathan managed to counter.

"You are looking for death!"

A murderous aura leaked out of the Great Water Demon after having been treated as a child. He raised his hands and summoned a giant bubbly waterfall over the two masked men.

The retainer by the master's side immediately threw out a black protective barrier over them, which prevented the water from hitting them. Then the black substance that the barrier was const.i.tuted of started to expand around the water ma.s.s before encasing it completely.

The encapsulated water then started to shrink and was soon completely eradicated. What remained was only a black clump, which flew towards the retainer and disappeared.

"Dark magic?" Leviathan was taken by suprise and forgot to continue his a.s.sault.

Dark magic was a hallmark of the Royal Demon Clan. If the men in front of him were royals, he would be in deep trouble.

"Who are you really?"

"Who do you think we are?" The master asked as he finally released his aura. Leviathan's eyes widened in fear as he immediately knelt down.

He recognized the origin of this mighty aura. It definitely belonged to the Royal Demon Clan and the fact that the owner could hide it indicated that he was of the direct line. The one he was facing must thus be either a prince or the Emperor himself!

"This subject apologize for his offence towards the prince. May the prince please forgive me."

Leviathan had met the Demon Emperor several times in the past and possessed some insight of his character. Based on his judgement, he didn't believe that the Emperor would personally come and visit him. Thus the only candidates left were the Demon Princes.

"Seems like you still possess a bit of a brain after all. Then my trip here won't be wasted."

"Why have you come, your Highness?" The Water Demon was curious over the reason for the Demon Prince's visit. He doubted that the prince had pa.s.sed by on a whim.

The prince took a step forward and looked down on the kneeling demon.

"Pledge your loyalty to me."
