Infinity: Rising of the Soul Weavers

Even though at the back of their heads, a weak voice was trying to convince them to act as proper Demon Nobility, they simply were not able to do so!

Both of them were continuously looking around in order to make sure that no one was listening to their conversation since if someone actually did… their end would be tragic!

Although words of the mentioned incident were passed on throughout the entirety of the Demon Country, no one actually knows who started this rumour or whether it's true or not.

However, it was enough of a deterrence to ensure that no demon would be bold enough to call Raven by her name. After all, no one would ever want to be on bad terms with their lady's Baneful Executioner!

***

*Achoo!*

A rather dignified sneeze sounded from Abbadon's side while walking one step behind his mistress throughout the streets of the market area of Central City, at the center of the Demon Country.

Central City was stationed between the eight regions that are or were ruled by the various Ancient Demon Lords, also known as the Deadly Sins.

Additionally, it was the most populated single city and the largest. Lastly, it was the city Raven had chosen as her main headquarters.

Demons were buying and selling like there's no tomorrow. In fact, this is the case since their lady has issued an order demanding that all non-urgent places and buildings close down at dusk by tonight.

Of course, everyone knew that this order was a result of their mistress worrying about their safety. After all, an invasion is estimated to start on the next day. In other words, this is the last peaceful dusk before the invasion; the Last Dusk!

However, it can be said that since that's the case, today's streets are the busiest they have ever been.

And… 

And all those people who were busy in the streets were trying their best not to look at Raven and Abbadon.

Although it is considered disrespectful, it was an order from Lord Abbadon who seemed to be in a bad mood. Their Lady only smiled apologetically while nodding, so they could only mind their own business.

"What are you looking at?" Abbadon glared at a little demon girl who seemed to have been startled when noticing Raven pass by her. "Didn't I say that if you dare look at Lady Raven I'd personally scoop your eyes out and feed them to you!"

Hearing that, the young demoness instantly burst into crying, her eyes red. 

"Abbadon, don't be harsh on the young ones!" Raven reprimanded, but she kept in mind to do it loudly to save her subordinate's face.

Looking at the young girl, Raven crouched down and patted her head kindly. "Hey, it's alright, don't cry, it's okay now."

Her words and actions seemed to have casted a fixation spell on the busy crowd as everyone stopped moving while staring at their mistress and the young girl in front of her.

One must know that Raven rarely appears in the crowds since she's always busy. 

However, the radiance she gave off in her dark battle armour was just so eye-catching and the kindness she just displayed was so heartwarming that everyone couldn't help but ignore Lord Abbadon's command and stare intently.

The young girl under Raven's hand took a few seconds to catch her breath and wipe her tears. 

Staring at Raven, she looked as if she was looking at her hero that was going to save her from the evil dragon.

"Big sister, you're so kind, I love you so much!" The little girl suddenly blurted out while stepping forward and hugging Raven with her short arms.

"Ah, hehe…" Raven forced a smile and hugged her back without saying much. 

However, the people around her almost dropped their jaws out of surprise. 

Some were shaking in fear. 

Others were shaking their heads at the little girl showing pity. 

A few even looked at the little demoness as if they were looking at a dead girl.

But it didn't stop there...

"Big sister," the little girl called again before pointing at Abbadon who raised his eyebrows in a questioning manner in return. "This man is an evil man, stay away from him, he'll hurt you!"

"""Hiss!!!""" The crowd collectively took deep breaths that seemed to exhaust the air and energy in the surrounding area.

Although the little girl didn't know much about life, she looked sincere while talking to Raven which showed that she actually believes that Abbadon is a bad guy.

'The ignorant is fearless!' Many people thought in unison without daring to utter loudly.

Contrary to the expectations of many, Abbadon didn't utter a word, but simply looked at the girl in front of him while flexing his fingers, as if getting ready to throw the perfect pitch.

This action made the girl shake under Raven's embrace.

"Abbadon…" Raven rolled her eyes while taking a long sigh. From his movements, it seemed as though he was ready to catch the girl's head and throw her away at any moment; she obviously can't allow that! 

"Hey cute lil, what's your name?" Raven asked the girl while ignoring Abbadon.

"Nimue!" The girl answered with a smile, seemingly forgetting about the scary guy staring down at her, taking refuge in her big sister's embrace.

"What a beautiful name," Raven said with a smile. However, as she was about to ask the girl about her parents, the girl looked at her in a puzzled manner.

"Big Sister, what is your name?" The girl asked cutely. But this action in itself made the crowd pity the girl and her entire family even more.

"Uhm, my name is Raven!" Raven answered as if it was the most natural thing in the world. She didn't care about the crowd or her subordinate's cold gaze towards the girl.

"Raven… like the dark bird?" The girl sounded surprised and the crowd hissed again in fear, feeling their bodies cold all of a sudden.
