BXBX NOVEL Chapter 79 Traitor Unmasked
Few minutes after Van had been informed about the location of Nicole and her group he had immediately rushed to a very dark room which on turning on the lights one could see that it was a well-equipped lab.
He walked to one of the large cupboards and pulled out a portable teleporter, it was just like the one Michael used only that this one was portable.
After making some adjustments he placed it on the floor and walked on to it.
His body was immediately covered by white light and when the lights dispersed he was no longer there.
Van appeared in front of the castle at the demon settlement and was easily met with lots of spears pointing at his neck.
"Hey, I\'m no enemy." He declared.
"I didn\'t think you would have the guts to show up here in person." A voice resounded from the back.
Standing at the castle\'s entrance door was a demon in a red sleeveless shirt and black trousers.
His hair was neatly arranged and seemed to be held in place with hair gel.
He walked upfront and with a wave of his hands ordered the demon soldiers to bring down their weapons.
"I didn\'t expect you to look so decent," Van said as the soldiers walked back to their normal positions around the castle.
The next thing he felt was a surging heat on his throat and with the demon\'s face very close to his own face.
"Hold your tongue human because we do not accept compliments here."
"Ok, I\'m sorry."
"This is just a warning." The demon said pulling his face back he hadn\'t even touched Van.
Van adjusted his cloth as he followed behind the demon.
\'All that heat from just his anger, I should really be careful here.\' Van thought.
"Yeah, you should be." The demon said.
Van had forgotten about one of the annoying traits of demons, which was reading their minds. The demon he was working with couldn\'t do that because of his willpower.
But this was a demon of a higher level and judging by how easily he had read his mind and what had happened earlier Van had confirmed that. There was no way he could pull a trick here even if he wanted to.
The demon who Van had just met was a demon lord, he was the demon Lord in charge of every demon lord in the kingdom.
He went by the name Zroka and had been given a task by Lucifer but to complete that task he had to use Van.
He took Van to an empty room with a table and two chairs as Van had told him that he had something important to report. But while Van took a seat he remained.
"Aren\'t you going to sit down?"
"Speak." He ordered without even giving a thought to Van\'s question.
Van explained how their plans were going successfully but he had a request to make.
"Why do you need such an amount of demons? They will just end up getting killed." Zroka said.
"That is where you are wrong my friend. The main threat to your plans is gone and I don\'t think there is anybody else capable of stopping your plans from going through." Van explained.
"And how did you get rid of this main threat?" Zroka asked.
"I didn\'t. Sola did."
"Sola," Zroka said and immediately began to laugh his heart out. "What type of main threat would be taken care of by Sola?"
"I didn\'t think he would be able to do it but one fireball from him and the guy couldn\'t get up again."
Zroka broke into another series of laughter which was beginning to annoy Van now but he tried his best to keep his thoughts in check.
"I\'ll give you the demons but you\'ll have to inform me when everything is ready, I would like to tear the whole place down myself."
With that said Van left leaving Zroka alone in the room.
He pulled out a tiny square device out of his trouser and placed it on the table.
A screen appeared on the table displaying a female with red hair.
"Tell Sola to see me now."
"Ok," The female replied, and immediately the screen disappeared.
Zroka was about to pick up the device when the screen appeared again.
"What is it?" Zroka demanded.
"Sola\'s communication device doesn\'t seem to be responding and I can\'t get his readings anywhere around the settlement."
"That\'s strange he\'s supposed to be back from his last mission."
"I got some teleportation readings a few days ago outside the settlement, I thought it was Sola and…."
"And you didn\'t inform me of this earlier." Zroka cut in with a furious voice, the female at the other side was just glad that they weren\'t speaking physically.
p
"Send some demon nobles and a growing demon to that area quickly!"
"Ok, sir." The girl said quickly, cutting the call.
"I just hope that was Sola as she thought."

After the demons were easily dealt with by Silvia, Nicole decided to do a headcount just to make sure no one was missing or dead.
After counting she discovered that someone wasn\'t there, they were short of one soldier.
"John is the only person not here."
"Maybe he was killed in the process."
"That can\'t be true. I didn\'t even see him while we were fighting."
While the soldiers were arguing Ella walked up to Silvia and whispered something to her ear, her eyes immediately lit up on hearing what Ella had to say.
Nicole called the soldiers to order and was about to say something when she felt a gush of wind pass her.
Silvia ran to the tree at the far end of the forest and quickly returned but now she was dragging somebody along with her.
The person she was dragging on the floor happened to be the soldier they were all talking about.
"Why\'s she pulling John like that?"
The reason they could see who she was dragging on the floor was that she had stopped running immediately when she got close to them.
"Here\'s your traitor." She said pulling John and causing him to land before Nicole\'s feet.
Nicole along with the other soldiers turned to John while they all had the same thought in mind.
\'Traitor?\'
