Primordial Soul's Rebirth

Alex hadn't disappeared for a long time, but many people had turned tense the moment he did disappear.

Especially because they knew who Selina was and what she could do.

As said before, no one other than the selected few people knew about the battle between Alex and the demon generals, so although everyone knew that he was strong, they didn't know how strong he actually was.

In their minds, Alex still wasn't strong enough to defeat a general, and Selina, who seemed to have kidnapped the demon Lord, was as strong as a demon general.

So, the moment it all happened, the bodies of many high demons tensed.

'Are we going to have a war?'

'Is the number of mythical ranked beings in our empire going to go down again?'

Such questions appeared in many of their heads, as what Selina did could be considered treason.

But nothing was certain; maybe she didn't mean any harm, or maybe she was just showing the demon lord something.

Those actions could mean many things, and it was soon cleared as they saw the demon generals and the demon ancestry arrive at the scene.

"Is everything, all right?"

Someone muttered as they saw the demon generals frowning, but before anyone could even answer or look at the owner of the voice, they saw the demon ancestor nodding his head at no one before he spoke.

"Everything's fine; go back to whatever you were engaged with."

Those words brought relief to the demons who heard it, and in a way, every demon in the ball heard it as the hall had gone completely still the moment their demon lord seemed to have been abducted.

No matter who it was, everyone present here knew a thing or two about politics, so they knew what kind of impact this act could have.

They were demons—a race that craved destruction and despair of every living being—but that didn't mean that they would want to see their own empire being plunged into a war.

But as soon as they heard the demon ancestors' words, which seemed to be aimed at every demon in the hall, they turned back to whatever they were doing.

Their eyes, however, would glance at the place Alex was last seen; they still weren't worry-free, after all.

*Woosh*

But as soon as Alex, the demon lord, appeared with a baby wolf in his arms, they sighed in relief.

The breaths they had held for a while finally got released.

They did find the wolf's presence a bit weird, as it wasn't there the moment Alex had disappeared, yet when he appeared, it was with him.

Soon, however, that thought was waved away as it was nothing major.

The wolf did look cute; maybe it was a gift by Selina for Alex.

But that was just what the weaker ones thought; the stronger ones didn't find it strange as they knew that it had always been there on Alex's shoulder.

Noctura was just under her stealth skill since the start, so not all demons could see her; now, however, she was sleeping, meaning her skill was deactivated, so everyone could see her.

Luna Tuner, the former association head of the orange country, was moving toward the first floor after excusing herself from the bunch of women of lower nobility.

"I want to create a secret organization here as well."

This was what Luna wanted to do; she had even asked for Alex's permission, and Alex, who had already seen her capabilities, agreed readily.

He knew that she had the ability to control things, and with her new set of skills, she was completely capable of doing a better job than before.

That was the reason why she was talking with the women of the lowest level of noble ranks.

Those women were someone who knew how to survive in this empire better than any other; after all, they were weak, didn't have authority, and neither did they have connections, but they had one thing, and that was knowing when and what they were supposed to do.

And Luna wanted just that, so she aimed for them, not as an individual person but as a close person of the demon lord as well.

There was something she was going to use as a way to make them unable to deny her invitation, but that could be done later.

Right now, Luna, who was worried about Alex the moment he disappeared, just wanted to get to know if he was fine.

So she moved toward him.

"Are you all right?"

She questioned as soon as she saw Alex's eyes gazing at her.

In response, he just smiled at her.

"Of course, what could happen to me?"

He raised a brow as he waved at Azaroth, who didn't seem to have finished whatever he was saying. He was gesturing for Azaroth to go away for now, and the demon ancestor did just that with a bow of his head.

Why did Alex do that?

Didn't he want the information Azaroth was giving him?

Well, the answer was simple, other than the origin of Selina, which Azaroth already told him, he knew everything else; he didn't need Azaroth to tell him that.

"No, but I was worried."

Luna, who heard his reply, puffed her cheek and muttered in a grumpy tone, seemingly unhappy by the unbothered tone in Alex's voice.

Alex just raised his brow in amusement before he commented.

"What can I say, sorry for worrying you?"

He questioned with a playful smile, and Luna's frown finally vanished.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"The feeling of having an emperor apologize to you is not bad."

Luna muttered with a satisfied smile before she moved closer to Alex and stood on the balcony with him.

"So, who was she?"

Luna questioned curiously; no jealousy or other kind of emotions could be sensed in her words, and Alex knew that she was just aching that question out of pure curiosity, but he still teased her.

"Do you smell something burning??"

The playful undertone in his voice was clear, but Luna just gave him a dead stare before she shrugged.

"Don't tell me then; I already have connections, and I can find out about her myself."

"Oh?"

Her confident words caused Alex to raise a brow in interest.

"You are already forming your little organization?"

He questioned curiously, his palms still caressing Noctura's head, not wanting to wake her up, as her waking up right now when Luna was right next to them, would only be asking for a headache.

"Not entirely, but in process…"

Luna answered his question before she puffed her chest and added.

"And it's not going to be a little organization; I'm going to expand it all over the world."

The certainty in her tone, as if she was sure that she could do it, caused Alex to be a bit surprised, but as he recalled Luna's past—her struggle, what she had achieved, why she was special—he just realized again that bringing her with him might have been one of the better decisions he had ever made.

He was slowly starting to like her after all.

But just then, as if recalling something, Luna's eyes brightened, and she spoke in a cryptic tone.
