Chapter 2: Hand of the Demon

"It seems, Your Excellency, that the demonic heart is hard to cultivate. As a noble of the kingdom and a lord of the land, I had intended to show mercy outside the law, only asking that you abandon those vicious and cunning practices of Dark Magic. I would even be willing to introduce you to our Church of Light to study. I really do not wish to see such a talented genius as yourself perish like this. However, I've realized that I was mistaken. The Magic Fire has already saturated your heart and body through and through. To free you, it seems, must require a drastic measure," Malone still appeared calm, but at this moment, he had already begun chanting the spell silently in his heart. He knew that without this battle, he would not be able to come to a conclusion today. "However, I still have one doubt in my heart, if Your Excellency has already avoided me, why then initiate contact with me?"
