Draegor stood still for a moment. "Your niece? The one you are searching for?" He asked, sounding angered.
"Yes." Bella nodded.
"You are certain?"
"I may not have seen her ever since she was born, but I still felt the same energy from her as I feel from Lilly, and that's more than enough for me." Bella confirmed.
Draegor took a moment to think. Meanwhile, Gilligan and the others had recollected themselves.
"Pardon me, but would you mind explaining to us what's going on?" Gilligan requested.
"I will hear your reason first as I have already told two of your men before." Draegor answered.
Seravis stepped forward. "We're here to put an end to you, coward!" He shouted in anger, then he charged the masked man with his blade.
"Seravis, wait!" Gilligan reached for his comrade but was too late.
"Activate: 'Sakuretsu Armor'!" Draegor chanted and his entire body was covered in a thick grey armor. He reeled back, then landed a punch square in Seravis' chestplate. The impact caused an explosion, sending the warrior back and flying into one of the buildings. "That is your one warning. Do not test me." Draegor warned with a tone of pure ice.
Gilligan and the others watched as Seravis slowly stood himself up from the ground. "You cheating bastard!" Seravis breathed.
"Ahem." Gilligan did his best to calm himself despite seeing one of his own men completely overpowered from just one counter. "Demon," He started.
"Draegor." The masked man corrected him, irritated.
"Apologies, Draegor sir. We have been given orders to escort you to the castle. There the Royal Family wishes to speak with you on certain matters, however, should you choose to resist, then we will have no choice but to take you down, here and now." Gilligan explained.
Draegor crossed his arms. "And what do they wish to discuss?"
"They are the ones to tell you that." The head warrior disclosed, but Carder leaned over.
"He's too dangerous. We need to take him down now." He whispered.
Draegor chuckled. "Do you really believe you will stand a chance?"
Carder gritted his teeth.
"Please come quietly and I assure you that things will go over smoothly." Gilligan offered.
Draegor thought for just a moment. "I will follow, but only under the condition that you treat this elf's wounds. They have been bothersome to more than just herself." He said as he looked to Bella. The elf huffed angrily.
Gilligan was taken aback by his request. "Really?"
"Yes. Traveling with severe injuries, whether they are of your own or someone else's, is not ideal to leave untreated." The masked man crossed his arms.
"I see. Then if you will follow us, we will grant your request, assuming that you remain disciplined." Gilligan offered.
Draegor nodded in agreement.
