Then without hesitation, they head towards Mt. Tri-mus to where Tromer resides. After several minutes, they reached his house and the clan leader knocked the door.

Tok! Tok! Tok!

A few moments later, the door opened and a man emerged from it.

At the Sofori clan territory in their clan's Ancestral Mansion, Ancestral Mansions are the place where the clan leader and the elders do their meeting. It is also the place where big celebration or events are held. The elders and the clan leader are meeting when suddenly a knock is heard through the door of the meeting room.

"This is your servant, Clyde, seeking an audience to the clan master."

"Come."

The huge wooden door opened revealing a man wearing robes. He walked straight until he's near to the clan leader and elders. One of his knees bent down while his face was facing the ground.

"Speak. What happened to your mission?"The clan leader asked while the elders are dumbfounded, they didn't have any clue on what's the clan leader is saying. Mission?

Then Clyde spoke, "The residents of the rally to the Dowter clan territory bringing weapons of their own. The plan succeeds, and the people doubted the Dowters colluding with the demons. The priests of the cathedral also rushed when they are informed that the people are rallying. They plan to use the crowd to oppress them."

Clearly, this is what the clan leader said when he will handle the problem. He didn't want to attack them in the broad daylight really but in only in the shadows. This man is a schemer. With a clan leader like this, the clan prospers almost for a long time. He just added fuel to the rumors using Clyde. Clyde just said to the people that there is really a demon that attacked the Sofori clan. Obviously, the people didn't believe it but after some consideration, they started to smell something amiss. How can a low-class clan win against Sofori clan? Before they don't mind this, but now that Clyde fuelled their suspicious thoughts, they rally out of fear. They thought that maybe if they can outnumber the demon they will have a high chance of winning.

"You made a good job. You will receive another gold for this. You can now leave."

Clyde added, "Another thing Your Highness, Tomorrow, the demon will partake on the church's test to see if he really is a demon."

"Oh..." The clan leader said for a long time, pondering over the matter with a wide grin on his face full of wrinkles.

After Clyde had walked out of the room, the elders immediately asked him.

"Your Highness Baudry, what is this?" The clan's Grand Elder asked.

Then the clan leader explained them his plot of overturning the Dowter clan. "If they got news that we are the culprit behind this plot, surely we will be dead. I will remind you Your Highness that that man is extraordinary. Even the powers of the church are not a thing to him. Our guards and the Royal knights all died and has been trampled before him. If he retaliates again, surely we are doomed."The Grand Elder said worriedly.

"Don't worry, I am good at these things. If that man is proven to be a demon; the citizens will destroy the clan. If he dared to fight with the citizens, it will raise the ire of the people and this news will become a talk to the whole continent and out of fear, the people will cooperate and will use all the means to kill and destroy them, bwahahhaha!"The clan leader said full of expectation coming from his imagination. Just thinking of what will happen to the people who claim victory over their clan before makes his smile spread wide further.

On top of Mt. Tri-mus.

"That's what happened. The church is oppressing us with the citizens. We don't have any choice buy this. Mister, I hope you will take consideration of this. Pardon us for being disrespectful."After the clan leader of the Dowter clan explained the situation, he immediately requests for his help.

But Tromer's answer shocked them, instead of saying "okay fine" or "I refuse," he asked, "You are the clan leader right? What's your name again?"

"Um, right. My name is Julius Dowter. Farjan's grandfather."He replied.

"Is it okay if I call you Julius only? Personally, I didn't like those formalities and honorifics."

"Sure. Julius is fine."

"Okay, I will tell you the truth. I am not a demon. The true demon is acting like a god. Earlier you're talking to them."

"Huh?!" Julius and the elders instantly frowned and on their faces a huge trace of confusion is broadly displayed. "Sorry? What are you talking about? Demon? Acting like a god? Talking to them earlier?"

"Mister Tromer can you please say it straightforward." The third elder said with a huge frown.

"The church."

"Yeah! The church is oppressing us, and we need yo- w-wait, what? Don't tell me the church? Demon?"

"Yeah, the church and their 'god' is a demon, if you do not believe me then ask them to give out their emblems and look at this book." With that, he took out a book and flipped it in a certain page. "This is the book of the demons. Galvan is a lower demon of the abyss. This is his emblem, take a look at the church's emblem and see it for yourself. I have things to do, and I think you can handle it from now on."Tromer turned back and goes inside his house.

The Dowters all scratched their head. Clearly, Tromer didn't want to attend tomorrow, and they need to rely on themselves with the help of the book. They turned and walked away from the house, but after a minute the door opened again and Tromer goes out.

"Where's Farjan? Tell him to come to me immediately."

Then Julius instantly frowned, "Farjan is not at home he didn't come back home a few days ago. We thought that he was here with you?"

"What?! He's not here also, a few days ago he's not going here."

"Is that true?" Julius asked worriedly. "Then where is he?"

"I don't know, If I know, why would I ask you?" Tromer replied.

-----

After heading back, Julius immediately read the book with the elders.

The book is half an inch thick. Its pages are made of yellowish paper. After patting the book, the dust flew away. Clearly, this book was made many years ago. Flipping open the book you can see the images and symbols and the information about it. These are the depictions of the demons and their powers, abilities and other information about them.

When Julius saw the different demons inside his mouth gaped open. From lower demons up to the higher demons, it is all recorded. Many names here are unknown to him. His body hairs stood as he read several lines from it. After turning to a certain page, an image depicting a person with three pairs of arms and a head like that of a panther is displayed. On the right side of the paper, the emblem that symbolizes this demon is also drawn out.

Below the images, a name that has a huge font is written there, it said 'Galvan' below this name the information about this demon is written. Julius read it while the elders listen to him.

Their jaws dropped and their brows knitted as the information is transferred into their minds. The book has given them about the powers of this demon and his weaknesses.

Galvan is a demon from the abyss that is being worshipped by some mortals to give them powers beyond ordinary. Although these powers are not that powerful for cultivators, still, it is useful for mortals or crippled cultivators. He was an ordinary servant demon before but after getting some powers out of unknown pure luck he becomes a lower demon.

Although he is a lower demon, he has a weakness too. Because he got his powers just out of pure luck and not of cultivation his powers are unstable and when it is in the middle of the afternoon around 11:00 up to 1:00 his powers are being suppressed by an unknown force.

"Is this for real?" Julius said.

"I don't know, no one knows. Besides, how in the world does Tromer get this book?"The Fourth elder said.

"Let's not argue over it. This book has a clear and detailed information about demons. So there's a possibility it is true. We'll just hope that this book will be useful."

Then Julius said, "Okay, I have a plan. We will make those old men from that demonic church be embarrassed and regret that they fight against us!"
