The emperor was away at the moment due to the fact that he and his family were going to attend the grand tournament and watch.
Meaning that his castle would be empty.
There was no way the thing was going to miss the chance.
Sitting on the couch, it left the body of the father and exited through the window.
It didn't take a long time searching until the black thing spotted a soldier that served the emperor.
Waiting for the right moment, it jumped onto the man's head, entering through his mouth, nostrils, and eyes.
Ten seconds later, it had fully contended over the soldier.
With no hesitating, it took a step forward toward the emperor's castle.
It had searched the capital and had yet to find what it searched for, so the only logical place left was the castle.
Reaching the grand gates, the being stopped and gazed at the two men standing their ground.
"Hey, what are you doing here? Didn't your shift end an hour ago?" one of the two men asked.
