Griffin Messenger

"Griffin!" William jumped to the side with his sword held high. 

The hooded figure laughed.

"Come on, old friend, don't you remember my name?" The figure asked.

"The moment you signed your soul away, I already lost my old friend," William retorted. 

"Tsk, fool," The hooded figure removed his hood and revealed his face. An young looking man with a clear face, fair skin, pointy nose and long black hair like William.

"Don't worry, I only came here to give you a warning," He said while he rummaged through his cloak. 

William was not going to fall into any tricks. He knew this man ever since he was a child, but that was before he surrendered his soul in exchange for power and youth. 

William frowned and at him and readied himself.

"Here," the man took out a scroll.

"You're not fooling me," William said.

"It's just a normal scroll you dense knucklehead," The man said.
