Velian\'s gaze shifted between Lucy and the girls who surrounded him, their eyes filled with a mixture of reverence and excitement. He couldn\'t help but wonder how they knew about him, how they had been watching his every move since he arrived in the Union of Dukas.

Lucy stepped forward, her voice carrying a hint of secrecy.

"Velian, there is much you don\'t know, and the same goes for us," she began, her eyes gleaming with hidden knowledge. "We are the Third regiment of the demon queen army, an ancient order tasked with preserving the balance between demons and humans. We must identify the chosen one, the one destined to lead us against the encroaching darkness."

Velian\'s brows furrowed as he absorbed Lucy\'s words.

"But how did you know it was me?" he asked, his voice tinged with a mix of curiosity and disbelief.

Lucy\'s smile deepened, her eyes glinting with a mysterious light.

"When you arrived in the Union of Dukas, we saw the fire in your eyes, the unwavering determination that burned within you," she explained. "We have been watching you, observing your every move, waiting for the signs of the chosen one to manifest."

"And who else could it be? You have silver hair just like the legend and we are chasing the same goal, so it was rather obvious,"

One of the girls spoke up, her voice filled with awe.

"Your arrival was foretold in ancient prophecies, your highness," she said, her voice carrying a sense of reverence.

"We have been keeping a close eye on you, ensuring your safety as you delved deeper into your search for the parasite cells."

Velian\'s mind spun with a mix of astonishment and disbelief. He had been unaware of the vigilant eyes watching his every step, the hidden support that had guided him in his quest and he suddenly saw a familiar face among this group.

"You are the woman, that I chased when I noticed you spying on me," He said, but she didn\'t react as she already told her superiors what happened.

"Why me?" Seeing no reaction from the girl, he asked, his voice filled with a blend of humility and curiosity. "What makes me worthy of such a responsibility?"

Lucy\'s expression softened, her gaze filled with conviction.

"You possess a unique blend of strength, compassion, and unwavering spirit, just like our queen," she replied. "The prophecies spoke of someone who could unite the fractured forces of demons and humans, someone who could inspire and lead us in the face of darkness. That someone is you, Lord Velian."

Velian knew if they are on the same side and chasing the same thing, no matter what their legends say, if he can use them to his advantage he might be able to find something useful.

"And why do demons chase other demons? Aren\'t these parasite cells something demons created?"

Lucy shook her head, as soon as she heard those words.

"It\'s not, and those demons you speak of, they are not created by our power, even though they might have the same appearance as us, most of them are created with the power of vile magic of the previous demon lord, who was a tyrant,"

She said something rather unbelievable that caught Velian\'s interest.

"Why are you talking against him? Didn\'t demons fight against humans willingly?"

"No! That\'s why I said your history is not correct, the demon lord is not someone we respect, he is a tyrant who used his vile magic to boost our people\'s magic, but as a side effect most of them got bloodlust, at first, we started killing each other, but then without having any option, our ancestor had to attack humans,"

Velian couldn\'t believe the history was so different in these two races. He knew victors always write history, so he still didn\'t understand why the hero, who defeated this demon lord wanted to hide something so important.

"Even though some demons willingly supported him, the majority of our ancestors didn\'t like killing others, we are not an aggressive race, we just want to live just like humans,"

At her words, other girls also nodded their heads.

"For example, you met a succubus, right? What power did she have?" Lucy questioned.

"She was able to absorb human vitality and kill them and charm other people almost like brainwashing," Velian answered, as he was curious to see what she trying to say.

"See! We real succubus can\'t kill people by having sex, we just absorb vitality, but enough for us to survive we could survive with normal food too, and we can\'t charm anyone, the only thing that comes close to charm is most of the succubus girls are born beautiful unlike most of the races, we rarely see someone without perfect body and face proportions,"

Lucy waited to see Velian\'s reaction, and seeing it she knew he believed them.

"What other type of beasts attacked you?"

Just in case, Lucy decided to ask and Velian answered her rather quickly as he wanted to know everything.

"Hmm~ someone who drinks blood and leaves dried bodies. Probably a demonized vampire,"

"And that person who could shapeshift, it is probably a doppelganger, they are not a real race, doppler is more like a plant than a race,"

Lucy answered everything which caused Velian to question how much she know about these things. It really felt like Velian didn\'t know anything as she uttered those words.

"What can I say? I have been investigating this Union for more than four years now, I think it\'s fair that I know something more than you," She smiled saying those words, but Velian wasn\'t in the mood for little talks.

He wanted to know what caused this and who caused this disaster and what they are going to do in future.

"Lucy, tell me! what are these cells? What are these parasitic cells made out of?" Hearing his question, she stood and took one bottle from the shelf and showed it to Velian.

"These are the cells of the demon lord, the tyrant who controlled us, and the tyrant who got defeated by the human hero, these cells belong to the worst living existence and it is still causing disasters even after all these years,"
