Once Zeno and Shuna arrived at the city, they left their boat at the port and began to walk on foot.

Zeno had his face covered with a cloak in order not to draw any attention to himself as the Successor.

"Successor, people are staring at us, pull the stupid cloak off." Shuna uttered as she walked a bit further away from him.

They were in the middle of a busy market, where different people were trading amongst themselves.

"I'm surprised these people still have the will to move around so casually." Zeno stated, he could see dead bodies lying on some corners of the street.

"They are not to blame, they simply just want to live." Shuna immediately turned and pointed her staff at Zeno, "Fight if you want to live, if you don't fight, you will die! You told me those words." She uttered.

Zeno smiled back at her, she always managed to get him to smile which others find difficult to do at times.

They made their way past the busy market and were under a long bridge. It was a bit dark but not so much that they couldn't make out where they were going.

While they were walking, Zeno noticed a man lying on the floor, completely covered in dirt.

When the man spotted Zeno, he quickly crawled toward Zeno and hugged his leg, "Young Man… please… I'm hungry." The man pleaded with a weak, breaking voice.

Zeno was immediately sympathetic toward the man, "I'm sorry, please wait… I should have some snacks somewhere around here."

"Oi! Back off!" Shuna yelled, she didn't waste any time slamming the bottom of her staff on the ground which sent a flash of sharp lightning to the man.

The man leaped to the sky and slid on the floor as he hissed.

The movement pushed Zeno back a bit which caused the hood covering his face to fall.

"What the hell Shuna! Don't go around attacking people!" Zeno yelled.

"Relax, Successor, look." Shuna said in a calm manner as she kept her eyes in front.

When Zeno looked at the man again, it wasn't what he was expecting, the man had a small horn on his head and his eyes were glowing green.

"Uuuuu… you're the Successor aren't you?" The man said as he scratched his face continuously.

Zeno sighed, "He's been possessed." He uttered, feeling disappointed as he looked at the man.

"It seems some of them were so desperate to defeat the demon that they tried making a contract." Shuna asserted, "Once a human has been possessed, there's no going back."

"Uuuuu, the more I look at you, the more good-looking you seem." The man said with his eyes aimed at Zeno, "You really are a handsome guy you know that? I'm so jealous,".

"Not only are you the Successor, but you also got a rocking beautiful girl with you, I'm so jealous, jealous, jealous … I really wish you would die, die die die" The man kept repeating.

"A jealous type, don't worry Successor, I can tell you're bothered by it, I'll kill him myself."

"No, I'll do it myself." Zeno stepped forward and picked a small stone from the ground.

The man moved back first, but later on charged toward Zeno, moving in a zigzag motion as he tried to confuse Zeno.

Zeno with a calm look uttered, "I'll put you out of this… no demon should have the right to your body!".please visit

Pheew!

Zeno flick his finger, and the small rock in his hand shot at the man with a sonic boom, the rock first went through the man's head and began going back and forth while puncturing every part of the man's body.

Once Zeno saw the man wasn't moving, the rock came flying to him before he caught it.

The man fell to the ground with every part of his body spewing with blood, Zeno didn't want to see it any longer so he walked away and Shuna followed behind him.

Zeno and Shuna passed the bridge and arrived at a particular place where three men dressed in red garments were waiting for them.

When they saw Zeno, they immediately knew he was the Successor, a smile hit their lips as they waited for him to get closer.

"Good morning Successor." They all greeted.

"Good morning." Zeno greeted back, he immediately noticed the wooden cuffs on their arms.

"You must be the Successor." A man dressed in a black top and brown trousers showed up behind Zeno.

Zeno turned to look at the man, he was quick to notice the five Omni tractors packed a it far way from where the man stood.

"Are you a hunter?" Zeno asked.

"I see you have a good eye, yes I am… Hunter Rio Quinn. It's a pleasure to meet you." Rio uttered before shaking Zeno.

The red badge on Rio's chest was enough for Zeno to know that he wasn't lying, Hunters are a special organization that helps with low-level threats.

Like evil cults, mobs, and the likes, although there are other organizations, like the Get organization, that are there to eliminate Glinx and the Dss, that help in eliminating Demons.

"Do you have any information on the demon currently hunting this city?" Shuna asked.

"I'm afraid not." Rio responded, "But the three idiots might know something, the thing is they refused to talk,".

"Is that so?" Shuna muttered as she turned to face the men in red garments.

She moved closer to them with a sadistic look on her face, "We need information, I'm sure you boys will talk won't you?" She teased.

"Of course, if it is for the Successor we'll say anything, ohh he blessed us with his presence, we are forever grateful." One of the men said with joy.

Shuna gave them a hopeless look, "You idiot better start talking, or I swear I'm going to break every bone in your body still your organs themselves tell me what I need,".

Rio was surprised and turned to look at Zeno who in turn gave back a nervous smile before sighing.
