CHAPTER 2
Every few steps, Raymond found a strand of silver hair. Its striking color and keen eyesight allowed Raymond to clearly see a strand of silver hair falling on the road.
 When you continue to follow the direction, to the end of the road. Raymond looked up at the hill road already in front of his eyes.
 "It seems that the kidnapped woman deliberately left a trail. Is it true that she was brought to this hill by the kidnappers?" Raymond still had doubts about his own analysis.
 However, according to the trail of strands of hair he found led to this hilly path.
 In the palm of his hand were many strands of silver hair that had been found along the way. Raymond looked at her again. Then holding her tightly while convincing herself, "her hair strands are heading this way. It means it's true that the woman was brought to this hill. I have to catch her soon."
 Staring at the orange sky. His passionate breath revealed his unanimous determination to continue on his way. And finally he walked into this hilly path with the conviction to save the woman who might be kidnapped by a bunch of bad guys.
 ***
 Without realizing it, the sky was getting dark. It has been walking for half a day according to the instructions of the two men beside him. They finally stopped right after climbing this fairly steep hill.
 Dense forest, dim light and only coming from a single wooden torch in the hand of one of the men. Viviana could not clearly see the area around her.
 However, as he climbed a little more, an abandoned building came into view.
 A building that only leaves its tall pillars. The roof that was gone and the ruins around it which had been overgrown with vines. You can guess that this building was destroyed several years ago.
 The question is, why is there a building this big enough on the hill? Viviana didn't even know that there was an abandoned building on the hill south of Elston.
 "We've arrived. Hey, Nores, take this woman inside. I need to pee," begged the man who had a scar over his left eye.
 "Yes yes."
 His friend who was smaller in stature still seemed indifferent. Accept like it or not.
 The man pushed Viviana's back to walk inside the abandoned building. A reluctant Viviana is still forced to oblige.
 When footsteps hit the floor of the building, Viviana rolled her eyes in all directions. It's dark and cold. The smell of dust that interfered with his breath made him feel a little short of breath. But Viviana couldn't complain over such a small thing.
 What he's thinking now, is to find out information about the kidnapper and also the reason why he was kidnapped and brought to this collapsed building.
 "Sir... Actually, what is this place? It's so dark here. The temperature is also very cold," Viviana whined.
 "Shut up! Don't whine like that!" The man cursed angrily.
 "You don't need to know what place this is. Just obey orders from me and also the chairman," he continued giving a warning to Viviana.
 "Okay. But... I was just curious. I didn't know there was a collapsed building like this on the hill south of Elston," said Viviana.
 "Of course you won't be able to see it from a distance. This place is protected by magic. Only people who are allowed by the new chairman can see this place," said the man who unconsciously explained everything.
 'No wonder I could feel a strong aura ever since I entered up this hill. It turns out that this place is covered in illusion magic,' Viviana thought.
 "You don't need to know much. Soon you will be sacrificed. So just shut up and enjoy the last bits of your life."
 Hearing the word 'sacrifice', Viviana clearly flinched. The woman stopped walking in the middle of the hall of this dark building.
 "Hey! Why are you so quiet?! Hurry up!"
 The man pushed back Viviana's back forcefully. Viviana was forced to walk again even though her body was starting to shake.
 Get to the end of the hall. There was a large door in front of them now.
 Only this room seemed to be less destroyed than the other parts.
 The small man started to push the pair of doors and let out a loud sound.
"Chief, we managed to bring in a silver-haired lady as a sacrifice this time."
 The man then gave his report. After that, forcefully pulled Viviana into the room.
 White candles circle around. Fragrant floral fragrance but not at all pleasant to inhale.
 In front of it, there is an altar with white marble. Shining like silver, decorated with flowers that bloom all around. An altar perfectly fitting for a small person lay on top of it. The sign, the altar was prepared specifically for a woman's height.
 Behind the altar, there appears to be a large man covering himself with a black robe. The dark red hair seemed to emit a demonic aura from the man.
 "Good, good!"
 His voice sounded heavy. Viviana gasped. Felt all the hairs on his body goosebumps indistinctly. Not without reason, when the man turned around to reveal his face, a sinister look with an aura of darkness haunting the man's entire body.
 'Demon Follower.' Viviana immediately guessed correctly.
 Someone who has a black aura. Intense mana that was completely filled with darkness. The pupils of the eyes are black with a very deadly look. There was no mistake that that man was a follower of a Devil.
 "Bring him here!" the man ordered with his dark gaze.
 "Okay, chief."
 The man who received the order from the devil follower immediately pulled Viviana's arm. While Viviana was daydreaming, she unknowingly had been dragged up to the altar in front of her.
 The Demon Follower drew closer to Viviana. A smirk crossed his mysterious face. The aura is getting thicker. Viviana couldn't contain her fear of facing that person.
 “Silver hair lady… Hehe… You're quite beautiful too. Apparently, you're a child of a noble family,” said the man.
 Viviana shivered when the man's forefinger touched her chin. Forcing Viviana to raise her head for a closer look.
 "It's true that you are from a noble family. In that case, this offering will be very special."
 After that the man laughed out loud as if he found happiness. Resounded throughout the room that was prepared to perform the offering ceremony.
 The man was standing behind the altar, facing Viviana. He stretched out his right hand. Then recite the mantras. His palm started emitting a black glow. A terrifying dense aura.
 "Ugh!"
 Suddenly Viviana felt her lips tighten. His body couldn't move anymore, stiff and petrified like a statue.
 His feet began to no longer touch the marble floor. His body floated without being able to put up a rebellion. The demonic male also raised his right arm which was shining from controlling Viviana's floating body.
 Lay right on the altar. Beneath his cloak, the man looked even more sinister. Viviana was unable to move. Only the eyes blink rapidly.
 'Anyone, help me!'
