Before exploring the area, they tried to gather the remaining demon crystals they could get from the demons. Most of the demons that Noel killed didn't have anything left, so they searched for the demons they killed.

They were already quite lucky that they got about three thousand demon crystals with variety grades.

The most important ones would be the twenty peak level crystals and more than a hundred advanced level crystals. There was no Superior Demon this time though. The Supreme Devil Organization might be planning to use it during the actual siege.

After loading everything in the carriage, they rebuilt their camp on the other side of the river to avoid the pungent blood smell.

The next day.

Noel and the others continued their journey to the base of the Supreme Devil Organization, only to find it nowhere to be found. That was right.

The base had been destroyed completely with the only clue being the people that fled earlier.

"What should we do?" Layla asked Noel.

Aurelia looked around. "The area has been cleared up and there are traces of footprints. This should be their base, but it has been destroyed, giving the explanation of the visual to Layla."

"We'll chase after them. There is still a possibility that they bring out more demons, so I'll have you accompany me to visit some villages."

"Don't worry. I have some free time. While I can't do anything to those humans even if they attack you, I will keep all the demons away at the very least."

"That's enough." Noel nodded in agreement.

Now that they had made a decision, the group headed to the south, specifically the village to their south. It wasn't supposed to be a big village according to the mayor.

There were only about forty people residing in this village. Their location was not far from the river, but because of the demons, the city couldn't rely on them. In fact, they thought that the people in this village had died because of the demons.

On the way, Noel couldn't help but turn to Grandell. "Say. How far will you follow my order?"

After the transformation earlier, Grandell answered without hesitation. "I will do anything for you, Sir. Even if it means sacrificing my life."

"Is that so? If I were to order you to kill a little kid?"

"That's…" Grandell tensed up. On the one hand, he knew that the lord was a kind man, who wanted to provide the best for his subjects. On the other hand, that kind of order was sickening.

Noel looked like Anna in the past, trying to kill innocent people. However, Noel knew that the Supreme Devil Organization could disguise themselves as a normal person. They might take advantage of that disguise and wait until Noel lowered his guard before killing him.
