Chapter 52: The Franco Republic Part 1

The party of Azuki Tamayo entered the capital of the Franco Republic and he waited on Bisato's orders.

Bisato:" We need to split up into a team of four but if you spot anyone coming from an area in a dark aura, tell me."

Shanita Right: "I will east of the end of the north and my sister will cover the west."

Bisato: " Good, I will look at the reported west end of the south where reports of demonic activity are common; you four know what to do."

Azuki saluted her and started processing to the eastern end of the south within Pari.

They all parted ways and started walking towards their destination.

Azuki paused and decided on using his lesser mirror to investigate the south.

Tamia, Akina Lee, and one of the women seem disappointed as he took the mirror from the inventory.

So Azuki placed back within his inventory and asked.

"What do you suppose us to do?"

Akina Lee: "Summon your elf troops from Kyoko, so we may be ready to engage any possible demons that are summoned by the archdemon."

Azuki began thinking of summoning his troops.

Do you wish to summon your troops?

Yes

No

All

Set the Amount

Yes

All

A green portal appeared and the elves arrived but this gained the local's attention and they looked at Azuki and the three fellow women with him.

One of the Elves stated.

Elf: "We were in hiding from demons and we arrived to jointly fight against demons."

The locals broke out in laughter cause of the elf statement and one Franco civilian stated.

"Foreigners, demons are said to be wiped out 2000 years after they were summoned to this world due to them siding with the dragons."

They all started walking for a while, as they passed an alley.

A stranger with hooded clothing passed by, Akina felt a dark aura.

So she looked around and saw a person behind her in dark clothing.

Akina turned and started chasing after the stranger and Tamia along with others followed suit after 5 minutes of them seeing Akina Lee.

The Arch Demon didn't notice Akina and the others 15 feet behind him, so he processed through the town center,

After 20 minutes of walking, the archdemon arrived at a warehouse and he knocked upon it.

An area of the warehouse door opened and a guard asked.

"Do you have the good's for our tradition?"

Arch Demon: " I have taken the 200 souls that will resurrect your leader and I have her body within my dimension."

The guard opened the but all of Azuki's used items that turned themselves invisible for one hour while Akina Lee sneaked into the warehouse, only to discover 80 members of Franco Legion.

Akina Lee looked around for her allies but no one.

Azuki got an idea but it is just about troubling Akina Lee.

Aliciana Victona:" Please inform me, I will check on the one that got us into danger and possible war."

So he moved next to her in 3 minutes and touched her.

Akina Lee wanted to scream for help but could not cause the warehouse to seem to be a military warehouse and her actions could cause a war with her homeland.

Azuki noticed her blushing and seem to be desiring to scream so he backed off and stood next to her.

Someone in nun clothing came from the stairs and walked into the crowd then she arrived at the center of the crowd, where the archdemon is just waiting.

The archdemon looked straight into her eyes and noticed red eyes which is common with vampires.

Arch Demon:" What is the vampire clan queen doing?"

Guard:" A Primordial was summoned here, after the death of the 6th legendary hero and she ate his body; so he became a resident and is considered our trump card as well as someone who knows Kamisato Yamato well."

Arch Demon:" Vampire Queen of the vampire clan, do you still serve the primordial Zhongli which guards the chaos realm against the king's interest."

Vampire Queen:" I am called Antel Lily but you seem to serve the emperor that wished to bring back Kamisato Yamato, so we resume our previous plan."

The archdemon took out a box that contain all of the material needed for a summoning.

Antel Lily:" How much is within it?"

Arch Demon: "2000 dark salt, chaos stone and ancient demon skin which are found at the area's that major battles took place."

Both the vampire queen and the archdemon parted ways then as soon as they reached their exit point.

Azuki raised his hand and signaled for the retreat cause of the power coming off of her.

Everyone left the warehouse when the demon opened the door.

Tamia: " Did the felt that blood aura."

Aliciana Victona: "That demon is no joke, she is High tier in terms of World bosses but the god level is beyond broken."

Tamia: "Agreed, cause our invasion of heaven failed after taking 1/5 of their heaven."

Azuki smiled and said.

"That was in the old days within our world, this world is different so some or few may be far more dangerous than what we usually encounter."

Tamia:" Yes my lord, you knew of what happened to us previously."

Aliciana Victona: "Not exactly, it was all blank; all I knew, I was trying to cast to spell then got hit."

Akina Lee approached him and looked into his eyes and saw a locked aura within him.

Akina Lee: "It appears that you have something that will even make none ascended primordial jealous but be careful, that power may cause more harm than good like the story of a dark seraph."

So the four started walking back to where they have started.

They reached their destination and started waiting on the others to arrive and inform them of their discoveries.

Morning

Pari

Franco Republic

Meanwhile, Azuki and the others are following the Arch Demon, Bisato saw a carriage then whistled at it.

The carriage driver stopped and Bisato approached the carriage then entered it.

Bisato: " How much to reach the western end of the south."

Carriage Driver: "That will be 10 Franco silver to go there."

Bisato:" Do you accept outsider money like the Angtal Empire money."

The Carriage Driver Sighed and said.

"That will 1 gold coin or 10,000 copper coins to reach your destination."

So Bisato took the money and gave the money to the carriage driver.

So the carriage started moving and due to many locals using carriages, it became a traffic deadlock for 10 minutes, and when it is all clear.

After 5 minutes of traveling, they reached the slum area where immigrants are common.

The carriage driver shouted.

"Ha!"

The horses picked up speed and they moved at such a rate of speed that Bisato felt the insides of the carriage jerking like it is on a terrible road.

Bisato: "What is going on?"

Carriage: "This area is terrible cause it is the southwest area commonly known as the slums madam."

After 3 more minutes, the carriage stopped and she exited the carriage."

The carriage driver hurried out of the slum district.

Bisato started thinking.

'This must be a criminal zone or a taboo area for him to rush out of here."

She saw 4 women 5 feet away from each other standing in one spot, so he went to their location.

So Bisato went towards their location and one of the women noticed her.

Lady: "Do you want some lesbian action?"

Bisato:" No but I will give you 5000 gold for your name and what is happening here."

Lady:" I am called Warina, this is the poorest area of Pari; the one-handed bandit's rule here but they only 1 copper from us tho."

Bisato: "Thank you, anything else?"

Warina:" Orc's and other demi-humans come from Saint-Lo and raid here for mates but no one has done anything about cause we are outsiders; it happens at midday and midnight."

Bisato:" Go on."

Warina: " They take 1/10 of men and women whenever they lack a mate tho but it stopped recently due to reports of a demon."

Bisato:" Thank you."

She took the money from her inventory and paid her 5000 gold coins then went on her way.

Bisato started walking and went to the left of the prostitutes and she started thinking of what is going on.

'This area has it bad but the world may be at risk if the 1st demon lord is brought back yet I could go to saint lo and drive the demi human's out of this country; if I don't find anything yet."

As she was busy walking and thinking, she bumped into a large figure of a man.

Man: "What do you think, you are doing?"

Bisato:" I am sorry, am just trying to find a way to get approval to attack Saint Lo."

Man: "Oh, speak to prime minister Belle Banebar cause she doesn't want to be directly involved in this."

The man took out two letters from his inventory and told her,

"The one in front of the other is the map of Pari, be sure to give the first letter, and maybe we can fix it here for your people."

Bisato: "Thank you."

Bisato started thinking about this but her main goal is hunting the archdemon.

Man:" What do you want?"

Bisato: "Am looking for a demon reported to be trying to summon the 1st demon lord."

Man: "Our prime minister has the vampire queen which she commands and controls for the 5000 prisoners that are sacrificed for her eternal service."

Bisato:" Does this queen command the demon?"

Man:" No but they sound close whenever I look for updates but don't challenge the vampire queen cause you will die."

So Bisato waved goodbye at the stranger and she started walking toward the 2nd district of the slums.

She arrived in just 10 minutes and a poor resident is riding a mature donkey.

Bisato whistled at the lady.

She stopped and waited, so Bisato approached her donkey and asked.

"Can I ride on your donkey, I will pay you."

Lady: "Sure, I will love too."

So Bisato jumped on the donkey and held on to the stranger's back.

So the lady started riding and she asked.

"Where are you going?"

Bisato: "Am going to the town center to lick up back with the others."

After a long while, they arrived at the city center and noticed Azuki's group are the only ones present; so she hopped off and paid the lady 2000 gold then went to join the others.

Azuki is glad to see her again and went to hug, them as soon as he tried to hug her; this causes jealousy within the ranks of his party.

As soon as he is close and he tried to hug her, she pushed his hug back as a show of rejection and this made him feel a bit ashamed.

Bisato: "Where are the others?"

Tamia: "Maybe just investigating the locations, just wait a little longer and we will tell what we have found."
