Zane continued walking toward the Demon King's Castle.
A dried chilling berry disappeared into his mouth as he casually looked around the unfamiliar streets. The capital remained unusually quiet, with only an occasional demon passing by before quickly disappearing indoors.
Then he noticed two figures walking toward him.
Both were demons with dark skin and black hair. They wore friendly smiles as they approached.
"Hello, Mr. Traveller."
Zane smiled back.
"Hello, guys."
He tossed another dried berry into his mouth.
"So..."
"What do you want from me?"
The two demons exchanged a glance before one of them stepped forward.
"You look like a weary traveller, sir."
Zane looked down at himself.
Then at the paper bag in his hand.
Then back at the two demons.
"Buddy..."
He lifted the bag slightly.
"I'm literally walking around happily eating dried berries."
He tilted his head.
"From what angle do I look like a weary traveller?"
