A Demon Lord’S Obsession novel Chapter 37

Chapter 37: Jesse and Thomas

\~Leon's POV\~

I stood there and watched William barks

a couple of orders.

Two of his men, provided him assistance, helping him walk back to his quarters.

They might have taken him to get his wounds fixed up, I don't know.

I just stood there next to Jesse, the rest of the guards and knights slowly dispersed from the garden.

They probably went back to their posts or whatever job assignments they had to fulfill.

The two of us started towards to mansion's front door.

We kept walking until I started up a conversation with the guy.

I turned toward him and with an inquisitive tone, I spoke.

"Your father, Sir William, said your name was Jesse, correct?"

"Yes, that is correct."

"You seem a little to be a knight, how old are you?"

"Oh, I'm 17, though I'm not a knight yet, I'm training under my father to become one. Once I'm of age I'll be able to become a full-fledged knight, hopefully, to succeed in my father's position."

"Your fathers pretty strong, if you want to succeed him, you'll need to prove that you're just as capable or even more so."

"I'll do my best, Demon Lord Leon."

"You can drop the Demon Lord bit, just call me Leon."

"What?. That's too informal."

"Trust me it not, well it's not for me.."

After walking up the steps we made it to the door. Just before Jesse opened the door I spoke again.

"Hey, since we're going by first name basis', plus were relatively the same age, how would you like to be friends? It'll be good for me to have a few people on my side."

"Really.? Sure why not."

Jesse opened the large doors, we both walked in. The place was relatively empty, yet it seemed to be managed well.

Jesse looked around for a bit, he seemed to be looking for someone.

"Where is he?"

"Who are you looking for?"

"His name is Thomas, he's the head butler. He manages this mansion, as well as other things."

He walked off towards a long hall of to the side, he gestured to me.

I followed him a bit until he made it to a large kitchen area.

Thomas was there as well as a couple of maids.
