Chapter 200 Unknown Demon

Nathan told Vanessa about the thing that he saw back in the ice cream shop.

And when Vanessa heard about the thick demonic energy on the surface, a frown appeared on her face.

With a serious tone, she said, "It's impossible that the demonic energy from up there is coming from here since I have set up a barrier that blocks the energy here from escaping."

Then as if she thought of something Vanessa looked at Nathan and saw that he still had a normal expression on his face.

Vanessa raised an eyebrow at him and said, "Interesting, it seems like you're not surprised that the demonic energy could be coming from this place or more specifically… me."

Vanessa slowly started walking closer to Nathan.

Stopping right in front of him, she whispered, "Care to tell me why that is?"

Nathan didn't flinch when Vanessa approached.

He calmly looked at her eyes and replied, "First thing first, I want to say sorry to you."

With an apologetic look, he bowed a little and said, "I'm sorry."

Vanessa just watched Nathan without saying anything.

After he said his apology, Nathan straightened himself and looked at Vanessa with gentle eyes.

"Just now I apologize because I used my appraisal skill on you and peeked at your information."

"Because of that, I have learned that you are a demon, a vampire to be exact."

"That's why, for being rude to you and for peeking at your information without permission, once again, I apologize."

After saying all that, Nathan looked at Vanessa and waited for what she would say.

Vanessa just stared at Nathan with a poker face for a while without saying.

Then she waved her hand and said, "Forget it, at least you know how to apologize for the mistakes you did."

Unhurriedly, Vanessa went towards a chair near the window and took a seat.

Her every movement was full of elegance, showing dignity akin to a distinguished aristocrat.

She looked at Nathan again, full of seriousness, she said,

"Anyway, what I said earlier was real. I put up a barrier around this place of mine to avoid leaking out demonic energy which is harmful to humans."

Nathan nodded at this time, "Hmm, I have also felt the barrier before, that is why I am more curious as to why there's such a thick demonic energy back in that shop."

Back when Nathan just entered this place and was surveying the surroundings, he felt the barrier.

He wasn't sure at that time but Nathan had also felt that the demonic energy in this independent space was being contained by the barrier which is actually the transparent wall that he saw at the end of his survey.

At first, he thought it was to hide the presence of a demon existing around here that's why the barrier was in place, but now, the truth is actually just Vanessa not wanting to harm the humans.

Because of this, Nathan was stump and did not know where to look next.

Vanessa saw Nathan frowning while thinking deeply.

Sighing, she said, "I'll help you. Since this might also pose some problems for me in the future."

"Really?" Nathan asked in surprise, "That would be very helpful. Thanks!"

Vanessa waved her hand dismissively.

Then she stood up from her seat and said, "Anyway, it's been years since I last had a guest."

"Although you came in as an intruder, since you did not come with malicious intent, I'll just treat you as a guest."

"And as a host, I would like to give you a great experience of visiting my home."

Vanessa said with a smile on her pretty face.

Hearing all that, Nathan also showed a gentle smile.

"Then as a guest, I would be very grateful for that."

The smile on Vanessa's face grew after seeing Nathan act like that.

"No need to be formal. Just think that you're visiting a friend's house and make yourself comfortable."

Nathan nodded.

"Then let's go."

The two left the room with Vanessa on the lead.

They walked down the hallway in silence since there's nothing much that they can really talk about.

To break the silence, Nathan thought for a while before suddenly remembering the demonic energy crystal that he got on his way here.

Thinking of that, Nathan called Vanessa,

"Vanessa."

Vanessa turned to look at him and with a curious expression.

"What is it?" She asked,

"Actually, on my way here to your space, I saw a bunch of demonic energy crystals."

"It was located opposite of the passage that leads towards your place. Do you know something about it?"

Vanessa paused her steps and stopped with a frown on her face.

"Demonic energy crystals?" Vanessa unsurely asked,

Nathan nodded, "Yeah, there's a bunch of it inside that room. I know that demonic energy crystals formed when a huge amount of demonic energy gathered in one place."

"Which might also signify that a demon is staying in that place as they are the one who release such energy wherever they go."

While saying that, Nathan looks at Vanessa or more specifically, at the demonic energy that is surrounding her.

With a deepening frown on her forehead, Vanessa nodded, "You're right."

She looked at Nathan and continued, "If you really found a bunch of demonic energy crystals on your way here, there's a chance that another demon is residing outside my space without me knowing."

Nathan also frowned, "So the demonic energy surrounding the ice cream shop was most likely from that other demon!"

Thinking of that, Nathan can't help but grow worried.

Since he did not see the demon before, then it could either be away from here right now or is hiding somewhere and is observing everything.

Which could mean that it has seen Nathan taking all the demonic energy crystals from the room on the other passage.

As Nathan was worrying, he suddenly heard Vanessa's voice.

"Hmm, you don't have to worry about it. If a demon really dared to live close to my spot, I would personally end the life of whoever that is."
