Chapter 639 Visitors
Cassie stared at the coterie of Demons standing in front of her, radiating unholy power on a level that made the barriers over the city seem to shiver. The [Kind Intentions] spell hadn’t activated, but with the twenty Demons, all at or near Saint level in power, it wouldn’t have mattered if it did.
“Can you repeat what you said? I’m not sure that I heard you right.” She asked with a trembling voice.
“I have a letter here to prove it, Miss Cassie Noxus. Patriarch Wolfe Noxus asked that we be sent here to keep the situation in your region stable while he helps our Royals out with a few spells.” The massive Demon explained, while delicately holding out a piece of folded paper.
[Cassie, or whoever greets the guests. I can’t make it back right away, but I want you to know that I’m safe. There was a fight with the Witch Saints, and we all ended up in Faerie accidentally. The Fae threw me into the Demon realms, where everyone has been quite kind to me. I will be back as soon as I can. Wolfe]
Yeah, that sounded a lot like him, unconcerned, no matter what happened around him.
“Alright, I am not sure what we have for accommodations for beings of your stature, but if you give us a few minutes, we can get something sorted out.” Cassie agreed.
They would definitely need to do something to get them rooms, some of the demons were over five metres tall, and they didn’t have anything even close to that in size. But with so many Rank Three Witches, it shouldn’t be an issue to make new rooms.
The twins overheard her conversation and got right to work building an oversized condo complex in a nearby tree, then called for Khalifa to come over with the inscriptions to enchant beds and furniture. These Demons could certainly do it themselves, but asking them to literally make their own bed just seemed like poor hospitality.
The rooms might not be up to whatever standards the Demons had at home, but they were some of the fanciest in Forest Grove, and they hoped that they would do.
“Right this way, I believe the ladies are finished preparing the rooms for you.” Cassie informed them with a smile as she felt the spells finish.
The Demons smiled at her hospitality. They hadn’t expected much from the Witches, especially after what they had heard about their war with the Magi. But they were doing an outstanding job at their Rank, and the rooms were not only comfortable and properly sized for each of them, the town of Forest Grove smelled incredible, like fresh grass after a rainfall and nature magic.
“If you are hungry now, we can have something sent up, if not, the usual dinner service begins in just over an hour. There is hot and cold running water for the shower, I didn’t know what you would like, so we went with what is normal for us.” Cassie explained.
“I have a question. Who is that fluffy creature? I thought that you had many other Demons here, but they’re not. They don’t smell like Demons.” One of the new arrivals asked.
He was pointing toward one of the Bunnies, who was carrying supplies to the kitchen.
“Oh, they’re humans, mutated by a curse to take on aspects of animals.” She explained.
“Do they come in carnivores?” The man asked.
“Yes, there are those who more closely resemble Wolves and large cats as well.”
“Don’t encourage him.” Khalifa snorted from just down the walkway.
“Elven Princess. I must say it’s a shock to see you here. Did you also come to help maintain the balance of this world now that it is missing its Saints?” One of the Demons asked.
“No, I stay here most of the time when I’m not needed at home. I must say that I didn’t expect the Demons to intervene. I was going to request assistance from home, since we are in a Fae Forest and all.” She retorted.
It was obvious that the two were tense with each other, but not willing to break the truce or go back on their word to maintain the peace.
“Well, it is pleasant to have met you, Fae Princess. I do hope that we can get along.” The Demon replied.
Cassie could tell that the Elf was going to call more powerful Fae here very soon, while the Demons were actually more interested in the people in the city.
“Will there be people outside their homes at dinnertime?” One of the demon women asked.
“There will. Many of our people prefer to eat in the public areas. I will have tables modified for your size if you like.” Cassie offered.
“Oh, yes, please. Demons usually prefer to eat together, it is a social occasion for us. Plus, I’m eager to meet these not demons with demon features. Perhaps we could fix them a little bit. They feel like they have some magic in them.” Another Demon suggested.
“No altering them without their explicit permission. I promised to look out for our people, and allowing them to be experimented on breaks that promise.” Cassie replied.
It was obvious that the situation was about to snowball out of control, but how were they supposed to really do anything about it when any one of these Demons could crush the city on their own? They were being friendly right now, and Wolfe had promised they were here to help with balancing the power in the world, but that could mean almost anything coming from him.
One of the Werewolf women was sneaking looks at the Demons from around the corner of a tree, so Cassie gestured her over.
“Ladies and Gentlemen. This is Aria. Aria, these are the ambassadors from the Demon Realm, sent here to help keep the world in order. They’re interested in the story of the people of the Frozen Wastes.”
As soon as she finished talking, there were heavy, thumping steps on the boardwalk behind them.
“Don’t leave me out of this. I see that yummy little shota Demon over there.” A deep voice growled as Lisbeth, one of the Bear kin women, stormed over, no longer able to resist saying something.
“And this is Lisbeth. She gives great hugs, and has a thing for much smaller men. Forgive her personality, and anything else. But at your power level, it shouldn’t be an issue to keep her in line.” Cassie explained.
The Stone gargoyle, the short man that Lisbeth was referring to, stepped forward and fluttered his wings wide as he tried to look taller. He was a Rank Six demon, and the Bear kin weren’t magical beasts at all, just mutated humans with an affinity for magic. He was certainly stronger than she was, many times over, but he looked more intrigued than anything.
“These new humans are interesting. Tell me, Lisbeth, have you ever considered visiting the Demon Realms?” He asked with a flirtatious wink.
“Alright, while Lisbeth and Cormack get better acquainted, how about the rest of us have a seat in the park down below and discuss the oddities of this place?” One of the others laughed, right before the two of them held hands and jogged away into an apartment nearby.
“Yes, let’s get that out of the way before we run into any more strange situations that I really don’t want to think about.” One of the demon women agreed.
