Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 2259

It was drizzling on the shores of the Yellow Sand River.

At Vauxgan Pavilion, Rick and his subordinates were patrolling along the banks of the Yellow Sand River and keeping a lookout for any movement in the waters.

If anything happened, Rick would follow Zeke's instructions and report the situation to him.

Not far away, a figure was hiding in a bush of reeds.

It was none other than Daemonium.

Holding this breath in his hideout, he managed to conceal his presence thoroughly.

Therefore, even when Rick and the others were very close by, they failed to detect his presence.

To Daemonium, Rick and the others were just like ants on the ground. He could easily kill them if he wanted to, but he didn't show himself recklessly because he sensed Zeke's presence in the air.

Daemonium was unsure whether Zeke was around or if it was a trap.

Besides, sensing an unknown yet strong presence at the bottom of the river, he became apprehensive.

Previously, Daemonium discovered an important treasure at the bottom of the river.

The treasure's importance to him was so significant that he ordered Cesar to transform some of the Dulliouds into spider men. After that, he sent them underwater to guard the treasure.

As Daemonium sensed the strong presence from underwater, he realized that the person must be aiming for the treasure too.

However, he didn't dare to reveal himself without knowing the identity of the person.

What should I do now? What should I do now?

Daemonium was frustrated about what to do next when he suddenly sensed a familiar presence approaching him at top speed.

It was none other than the presence of his new subordinate, Cesar, the Dullioud sorcerer.

Upon seeing Cesar, Daemonium's eyes lit up as an idea crossed his mind.

Morphing into a flash of lightning, he left his hideout and ran toward Cesar's position.

While Rick and the others were still unaware of Daemonium's presence, Daemonium and Cesar met.

Upon Daemonium's arrival, Cesar hastily knelt before him. “Greetings, Master.”

Daemonium nodded. “You may rise. You're just in time. I need you to do something for me.”

Cesar replied, “It is my honor to serve you, Master.”

Daemonium began, “There's a few people patrolling around Vauxgan Pavilion. I need you to pretend that you're a passerby and check on the situation there.”

Cesar nodded. “All right. I'll go right now.”

Daemonium was afraid that Zeke would ambush him if he went to check on the situation personally. If Zeke was around, Daemonium would be attacked the moment he showed himself.

Daemonium brought Cesar near Vauxgan Pavilion.

When Cesar took a closer look at Rick and the others, he was instantly enraged. “Damn it! Why am I bumping into them again? No wonder they weren't at Durbaine. Looks like they have been here all the time!”

Cesar's reaction caught Daemonium by surprise. “Why? Do you know them?”

Cesar nodded and replied, “Yes, I know who they are. They are the Dulliouds. I sent them to stand guard at Durbaine. When the situation at Durbaine became out of hand, they fled here instead.”

Daemonium frowned. They are the Dulliouds?

With Zeke's presence stronger than ever and Rick's patrol, Daemonium couldn't help but suspect that the few people from Dullioud had betrayed him and pledged loyalty to Zeke!

“You! Go ahead and sound them out,” Daemonium ordered.

Cesar replied, “Don't worry. Since they ruined our plan, I will not let them off easily!”

As Cesar approached Rick and the others menacingly, he yelled, “Rick Baker! How dare you come here without my permission?”

Rick and the others looked in the direction of the sound. When they saw Cesar, they fumed in rage.

F*ck! This is the scumbag that got Dullioud into trouble!

Ever since their families, friends, and colleagues turned into monsters and sank into the river, all they wanted to do was to avenge their loved ones.

However, they couldn't find their enemy.

Now that the enemy showed up, they had no reason not to begin their revenge.
