[Michael's POV]

"Apologies for the disturbance. As you can see, I was a little occupied. Now then, let's begin our 'conversation', shall we?" I smiled.. making him take a step back with his body shaking a bit.

Smiling, I moved closer to me as I sensed the presence of the two strange people above vanishing from the second floor. My eyes reached up to find Angela standing there. Her expression seemed like she had a lot to say.

'Well, we will come to that later. For now, let's deal with this one here,' I thought as I moved closer to that demon, but 4 men clad in black, wearing masks of different shapes and types, appeared in front between me and that demon.

Not only them, there were 3 more persons with the same presence who appeared up there around Angela. Though it didn't seem enough to worry about, after all.. they were all weak.

"He is strong.. we must run.. you can't handle him,"that demon spoke with fear, still instilled in his voice, making the other 4 look at me with even more caution than before. One of them tried analyzing me with his red eyes before he added,"but he doesn't have even an ounce of energy in him.. are you sure about that?"

The others felt complex about this as they observed me.

-AAAAAAAA!!!

A sound came from the top as all of them looked above. A guy wearing the same black dress as those men fell down burning in a black flare before he withered like a broken doll. His eyes gouged out of its socket as his body twisted inside out before turning into black charcoal.

This scene horrified those 4 men as they looked at me before gulping and beginning to vanish but..

[Time Rejection!]

"Come on now. What's the hurry?" I spoke as I looked at the guy who was capable of using teleportation magic. That shit is rare, to be honest.. Though his eyes were filled with fear as he looked at me.

"I will buy sometime.. you guys run," one of them brave enough to step up.. jumped at me with all his might. The demon was about to stop him, but it was already too late.

"I will give you.. 2 points for bravery," I spoke as I slashed once in the air and

[Time Rejection!]

[You have gained +125 Exp]

And it hit his weakest Vital point, killing him in an instant as his body fell on the ground. I, then, turned to the other guys who didn't even manage to move from their position. Their eyes filled with horror looked at me as if I were the devil himself.

"Come on now. All I want is to have a conversation.. Why are you guys making this difficult?" I spoke as I smiled at them, taking one step closer to me, while they took one step away from me.

"What do you want to talk about?" The demon, while still afraid of me, asked with some courage while the others just observed me with a horror filled face.

-AAAAAAAAAA!

-AAAAAAAAAAA!

"I-" I was about to speak but I heard another scream as two men came falling behind me as they too burned into charcoal in the same manner as the previous one did.

-Thud!

-Thud!

I turned around to see Irene and Angela jumping down from the second floor as they stood behind me, without any change in their expressions. Angela seemed quite bored, while Irene seemed like she had a lot on her mind.

"Now.. First things first. Who are you guys?" I asked as I looked at them. Their eyes looked at us with a stupefied expression. I mean, we came here to take out Vintage while also trying to find out about the Dark Oracle, but I have been fighting all this time without knowing if they are Vintage or not.

"..."

"..."

"..." For the next few seconds, an awkward silence filled the air while Angela shook her head and so did Irene. While those guys looked at their dead pals, wondering what exactly was that they had died for?

"Hmmm.. you guys from Vintage?" I asked to avoid any further confusion, and they nodded as they looked at me. I then smiled as I spoke,"then it's fine. We more or less came here to wipe you guys out anyways."

"..."I think you should take a look at

"..."

"..."

Their eyes widened again as they saw all their hopes dying as soon as I spoke those words. That demon looked around as if trying to find an escape..

"May I know the reason for my death.." one of those men spoke as he looked at me with a fear filled expression. His eyes were still trying to think as much as they could.

"Hmmm.. where should I start with.. Is it that you eat children literally, kill and r*pe women here and there or is it the fact that you extort money from poor and kill them for fun? Well, the list goes on and on,"I spoke as I looked at his [Status] using the [Inspect] spell.

Their expressions turned pretty ugly as they observed me. Though I had no intention of letting any of them leave at all. They were worse than scum that I encountered in the Apocalypse.

"Angela.. Find their connection with the Dark Oracle," I sighed as I spoke while I turned around to look at Leeway, who was still unconscious on the floor at a distance.

-AAAAAA!!!!

-AAAAAAAA!!!!

Meanwhile, those people screamed at the top of their lungs as I reached Leeway. Looking at him, it doesn't seem like he was injured much.

'When will he wake up?' I asked as I looked at him

[12 Minutes: 13 seconds]

I nodded before using the skill [Time Reduction] to reduce the time by 5%. It was a minor thing which wasn't going to achieve anything, but since I had the capability to do it, I decided to go with it.

After checking his pulse and everything else, I finally confirmed that he was pretty much fine and decided to leave things be as they were. My eyes focused on the other side as I saw Angela finally being done with everything.

Only the Demon was standing now.. or sitting on his knees with pure fear in his eyes as he looked at Angela. He wasn't as afraid of me as he was of Angela now..

"What did you do?" I asked as I walked towards her, making her smile a little as she spoke,"showing a bit of reality to this worm. He seemed to still not understand the gravity of the situation."

"My lord Mordock.. he is going to come here.. and once he finds all this mess.. you are going to regret this,"the archdemon spoke as he looked at me.. though looking at his fear-filled expression, it seemed like he was doubting his own words.

"And is he connected to the Dark Oracle?" Angela asked as she sent a dark energy making him bow down even more than he hit his face on the floor.

"He is the direct subordinate of.. Lord Cable.. you are going to regret messing with him.. he is beyond ruthless-"

"What did you say?" Angela looked a bit surprised as she observed this archdemon. More appropriately, she was surprised to hear that name.

"You know this Cable person?" I asked curiously as I observed her and she nodded,"not exactly, but.. I figured out something. Michael, in this reality, Belial isn't the ruler of this planet.. the current one is.. Demon Queen, Ursula... This is.. not good."

Angela seemed genuinely worried about the whole situation as I waited for her to collect her thoughts and explain.

"You know the Queen's name?!!!!" That demon was genuinely surprised as he looked at Angela while she spoke,

"Ursula, one of the upper queens of the Demon realm, was strong enough to challenge the Zombie King in his early days. Though from what I have heard, she was killed by the Zombie King before he started taking control of the demonic continent.

She is strong but.. that is not all Michael.. she is one of the focal parts of the entire Demonic realm.. And if she isn't dead, then that means.. in this reality, the Zombie King isn't the only problem we are going to face." Hearing her words, I pondered over a couple of seconds before looking at the archdemon, finally breaking a smile.. though..

"Is that really a problem?" I asked as I looked at her. We are going to get stronger with time, and we will be stronger than ever. To be honest, I was going to face the Zombie King anyway in the future.. adding another powerful foe does make it difficult.. but is it something that I should be really worried about right now?

"What do you mean.. by that?" Angela asked, a little confused as I spoke,

"We may face the demon Queen or we may not.. we may face the Zombie King and we may not.. but our priority is to return to the previous reality and start from there.. this place doesn't even close to feel home to me, you know? Why should I worry about the problems of a reality I am not even a part of?"

I was feeling pretty alien in this place.. not somewhere I would like to fight for my life unless necessary. The only thing that I need to care about are the ones who are with me from my time. Like Irene.. and Caroline. Angela is borderline safe, but that is all..

"Is that so?" Angela was lost in thought as she looked at the demon before turning to me,"So what is it that you want to do now?"

"Right now, huh? There is something that I want to try.." I spoke as I smiled at the demon.. making him shake to his core..
