"NO, I don't have a death wish, Brother-in-law. And that's why I'm retreating now."
Nero raised an eyebrow when the Ancient Devil's body suddenly turned translucent.
At that point, he knew that it would be useless to attack the bastard.
But was he really leaving, just like that?
"What did you come here for?"
"I'm looking for Princess Neoma," the Ancient Devil said. "But I've already confirmed that my princess is not here, so I have no reason to stay longer."
Nero just kept his mouth shut, neither confirming nor denying it.
Neoma, you really attract lunatics, huh?
Anyway, he chose to ignore the Ancient Devil until the bastard disappeared completely.
And, as soon as the enemy was gone…
"We're sorry for failing to apprehend the enemy, sire."
Sandford Devon and Raku immediately got down on their knees and bowed their heads towards him while apologizing.
To be fair, Nero didn't feel the need to scold the two.
It's the Ancient Devil, after all.
