Gran's mistake

"It's such a waste, I have to kill you, you could have obeyed our queen and achieved even greater heights, but with your betrayal, you're now dead," Lucy shouted, as she saw Gran running in their direction.

"Lord Velian, I will handle him, can you hold the other underlings? Kill them if you want, we don't need their information, Gran is enough," Lucy said and looked at Velian for confirmation and he just nodded his head.

"Good! Let's go, I will cover you," She said and look at the surroundings to take an idea about what she was going to do to overpower this powerful vampire.

With a swift surge of adrenaline, Gran's muscles tensed, and his gaze locked onto Lucy, who stood defiantly, ready to face him. Every step he took was fueled by a burning desire to prove himself, to defy the odds stacked against him. He had to survive, for the sake of his demon king's revival and for the hope of a better future for the demon race.
