Damian couldn't shake off the strange feeling that the sword he had taken from the castle gave him, but he decided to keep quiet about it. It was not the time to worry about such things. They loaded the carriage with some supplies from the castle, such as food, warm clothes, and blankets. The winter was harsh, and the snow was falling heavily that day. "We're lucky to have this carriage. So, tell me more about yourself," Lila said. She didn't know that the woman who was driving the horse was a…-

Damian returned to his original appearance after getting heavily wounded by the demon. The castle was a complete mess with an army of demons killing everyone, and destroying everything that stood on their path. While that happened, Damian was unconscious, losing a lot of blood. He could die there if no one did something to help him. "A-Ah…" Damian slowly opened his eyes, feeling a tremendous amount of pain course through his body. His memory was a mess, and the first thing his eyes saw was a…

Everyone inside the banquet room was moving around like lost flies, and the guards were focused on finding the killer, the person responsible for the attack. Damian was near a window, acting suspiciously. In his mind, Miller would certainly die, and he would use the window to escape. But the window was locked, and Miller had… a pulse? "I am not done with you," the guard said, turning around and leaving. The guard went to check on Miller. If there was a chance Miller would survive, then they would…

The situation was baffling. Damian could not fathom why someone like Lila, a prominent figure in the castle, would show interest in him, a mere servant. 'Is she testing me?' Damian wondered. After their dinner was over, Damian cleared all the plates and tidied up her room before leaving. "Bye bye!" Lila said, waving at him. Damian left the private area of the castle and headed to another block, where all the servants lived. Jaden, the person Damian had kidnapped to take his appearance, was one of…

A young man with short black hair, dressed like a butler and with many tasks to complete, was Damian's new identity. He arrived at Miller's personal courtyard where one of the guards protecting the entrance asked him, "Where were you, Jaden?" "I-I was watching the guards' training," Damian replied. "Hmph. You will never be a warrior. Go clean the rooms," the guard said, letting Damian in. They disliked Damian for some reason that he did not ask about. Damian entered and did not look back. The…

A tiny rat scurried through the castle, unnoticed by all. Those who did see it quickly ran away in fear. "A rat!" No one would have thought that such a small creature could be capable of anything, but Damian knew better. He had been planning this for weeks, and now his plan was finally coming together. He needed to find the key to the cell where he had been imprisoned. He knew that the guards had the key, but he didn't know which one. He remembered the night he was captured. He had been taken by…

"Look over there! The culprits are there!" Damian shouted, pointing to the library. Miller and the other guards looked, but saw no one. "Shut up and move!" Damian had not expected this to happen. The lady who had stolen part of his wolf had information about him entering the locked doors, so he could not do anything against her, but he believed she would not do anything against him either. But it seemed that was not the case! She had something to do with the killing of Miller's son, someone Damian…

Miller and Damian were in the captain's room inside the guard's barracks, talking without anyone else around. "You don't have that many things to do right now, but don't forget about Lucas' training, and to keep all the guards in order," Miller said as she showed the room. "This will be your working place, but I expect to see you walking around the castle to ensure the other guards are doing their job. All right? Now, if you'll excuse me, I have some things to do." "Of course," Damian said, bowing.…

The wolf head that Damian had in his possession was enough to prove his success, but he didn't want to take any chances. It would be best if he showed the body as well. So Damian frantically searched the area, looking for any clues about who might have stolen the wolf. And he found them! There were footprints in the snow, and they led to the castle. Damian exerted tremendous strength in his legs as he dashed after the footprints. It didn't take long for him to find the culprit: a lady with black…

The quiet forest was not so quiet that day. People were running around, looking for the Night Shade Wolf. Damian was among them, but he was different. He was as quiet as a snake crawling before pouncing on its prey. No one could hear him, and no one could see him. He was an agile man, jumping from tree to tree. He was not using his invisibility cloak or his telekinesis to fly. Those were meant to stay as secret weapons. The power and mastery Damian had over his own body was more than enough to fight…
