A Demon Lord’S Obsession novel Chapter 68

Chapter 68: Worrying

”””””

Seal was pacing, worrying about what things might be discussed or scuffles that may take place.

He's been working at the castle at the beck and call for the previous king long enough to know when trouble may come.

He hated violence though he was pretty resourceful when dealing with the aftermath, he never was one to handle it head-on.

Once Leon went into the room Seal had Luna's lunch brought to her by one of his many subordinates.

Seal did his job to the best of his ability, he always wanted to make a good impression.

Seal could have been somewhere else in the palace, doing some other thing.

Instead, he was just worrying for his king, but maybe more for the Lords.

"Oh god, what..?"

He heard a loud voice come from the room.

Then once he came closer to the door he heard the signature sound a blade might make.

He heard once, twice, then a pause, till a couple more slice sounds made their way to the door.

He worried more and more until he backed off and took a breath.

The guards at each side of the door didn't seem to show interest in anything, they just stood there like statues.

(Leon's POV)

Me and others we hovering over the large map in front of us.

I moved my finger along it, passing the places where they shall preside.

"Your territory shall be here, what's your name again..?"

I gestured to the newest lord, never really paying attention to the competition lead me to be unfamiliar with him.

I looked toward the newest lord, he's seemed quite eager, I liked how he seemed supportive on my stances.

Though that could have been just his naivety that lead him to support me, I still decided to help him out.

So to give him some more motivation, I felt like moving him to a place that's easily manageable but has good benefits.

"Oh, I'm demon lord Titus Steal, Your Highness."

He did a small bow, and I looked back toward the map.

I moved him to one of the southern territories, I doubt he'll care where he's placed, to be honest.

No one seemed to have any objection, probably from the display I showed before.

I would have guessed one of the stronger lords would have revolted or something, but it seemed my slaughtering of half of them worked pretty well.

"Is there anything else you need me for, I'm all ears.?"

None seemed to have anything to say. They did a bow and I left.

They will probably talk behind my back, once gone but it's not anything that'll affect me.

I walked through the doors and was confronted by Seal.

"Your Highness, what happened did anything...?"
