《A Demon’s Journey》A Demon's Journey

The shout from a guard had immediately startled all of Bernado's guards.
Only Bernado and Bianca weren't aware of this scene because they were seated in a soundproof room.
The guards came outside and laid their eyes on Edwin's body in the sky. They noticed he was flying. It indicated he was a 5 Star Warrior.
However, they sneered and thought 'Just a mere 5 Star Warrior dared to spy on us? How ridiculous!'
Meanwhile, a servant rushed inside the room Bernado and Bianca were sitting. He looked extremely shocked as he informed the Third Prince, "Your Highness, an intruder has been sighted."
Bernado was slightly shocked upon hearing this information, but he immediately ordered, "Then what are you waiting for? Go and capture him!"
Although the presence of this intruder had surprised him, he knew that his guards could take care of a single person. He couldn't allow this matter to ruin his plans.
Meanwhile, Edwin was flying in the sky, staring at the man who had sensed him.
'He possesses a Bloodline related that sends out ultrasonic pulse. He probably spent a lot of time finding my exact location by sending many ultrasonic pulses. And once he was 50% sure, he attacked in my direction. His bloodline must also be sensitive to killing intent. This explains why he managed to sense me.'
'I need to be more careful next time. I always need to be cautious about these sound techniques. I only have a few methods to detect it.'
Edwin seriously thought while looking at these guards flying towards him.
One of the guards reached the same altitude as Edwin. He was nearly 100 meters away from Edwin right now.
"Who are you? And who sent you? If you reply truthfully, we might consider being kind to you. His Highness is fond of talents like yours," The guard spoke calmly.

"Pfft…" Edwin began to laugh upon hearing those words, "Finding me was your worst mistake."
The man coldly replied, "We will see about that."
'What a fool this man is. If he had accepted our offer, he could have a chance to serve under High Highness,' The man thought in his heart.
Edwin looked around and noticed 9 warriors, each one at the 5 Star Rank moving towards him.
If the guy ahead of him was included, there were a total of 10 warriors here who planned to fight him.
"You all don't need to take action. I will have his head," A man holding a Halberd spoke excitedly.
Edwin noticed that the other warriors actually consented to his words.
'I see… These warriors use this guy to test the strength of the opponent.'
When Edwin glanced at this man's delighted expression, it was apparent that he had no clue that his friends were using him to put the opponent's power and talents to the test.
They didn't want to take the risk because they feared getting hurt by an unknown ability. However, if they learn about Edwin's abilities, the likelihood of Edwin hurting or killing them would decrease substantially.
The man was using Wind Element to greatly increase his flying speed as he charged towards Edwin.
The Halberd in his hand was glowing with white light as it moved towards Edwin's head.
Edwin remained at his position, his hands still in his pockets while staring at that attack getting closer to him.
The warrior's halberd struck Edwin's throat. However, as the warrior struck Edwin's throat with his halberd's blade, he realized it couldn't move ahead.
He couldn't slice off Edwin's head.
'How is this possible?! The blade of this Halberd can even pierce the skin of a Purple Alligator Lord! How can it not even pierce a human's head?'

His shock was quite genuine since a Purple Alligator Lord had rather powerful defensive scales. To be able to damage his skin... The blade of this Halberd could be considered very sharp.
Edwin stared at this man and spoke, "Wind Burst."
In an instant, the wind burst tossed this man towards a particular direction. The sensor of this group was located in the direction this man was thrown.
The sensor immediately flew to the side to dodge this attack while also thinking about Edwin's abilities.
'High defensive capabilities. And judging from this attack, this man possesses good progress in wind element as well….Wait, what?! Where is he?'
Before he could more deeply, he noticed that Edwin had disappeared.
'How can that be? He disappeared in the blink of an eye? Is he using some sort of ability to conceal himself?' The sensor thought while staring at the spot he had seen Edwin.
Around this time, he heard a voice from his right side, "…You are not sensitive to killing intent. Moreover, your sensing skills are so bad that you couldn't detect me even though I stood so close to you. Tell me, how did you find my location?"
When the sensor turned his head, he saw Edwin staring at him with a puzzled expression.
There was not a trace of worry or fear on his face. He didn't seem to care that he was massively outnumbered.
In fact, he was more worried about something else.
Edwin suddenly grabbed his throat and asked, "Was that a fluke then?"
The other warriors around Edwin took action at that moment. They fired their long-range strikes towards Edwin so that he wouldn't be able to grasp and throw them like he had done with their comrade earlier.
"Assault Flaming Incinerator!"
"Volt Shredding Barrage!"
"Geo Arrow!"
"Zap Blaster!"
These four attacks were simultaneously launched at Edwin.
The Assault Flaming Incinerator was more or less a thin stream of pure flame energy that was shot at Edwin.
The Volt Shredding Barrage was quickly launched at Edwin. It consisted of multiple voltage bolts that were shot at him.
Edwin was struck by these bolts rather quickly, and the lightning energy tried to damage his internal muscles.
As for the Geo Arrow, it was clear from the name that a gigantic arrow created from Earth Element was thrown at Edwin.
The Zap Blaster was a pure wave of lightning energy thrown at Edwin. Unlike the Volt Shredding Barrage, it was a single bolt, possessing a great amount of energy.
Edwin ignored these attacks and remained focused on the guy ahead of him. He wanted answers to his questions!
The man hadn't spoken anything yet. He was terrified of Edwin. And also, he had no idea how he could explain what he had experienced.
The attacks thrown at Edwin suddenly struck an invisible barrier. It was then the other warriors understood why Edwin ignored their attack.
He was already prepared.
In reality, even if their attacks struck him, they wouldn't have hurt him. He set up this barrier to prevent someone from assassinating the man in his hands.
"Speak!" Edwin ordered coldly.
"I-I don't know…." The man muttered out.
Edwin knew he was telling the truth due to his Mystic Eyes of Perception. A cold glint appeared in his eyes as he spoke, "I see…."
"Soul Reading Skill!" Edwin immediately used this skill.
However, right after he used this skill on this man, he sensed the spirit of the man suddenly getting berserk.
Before Edwin could do anything, the man's soul exploded!
Edwin continued to levitate on that spot with a blank look on his face.
