GUARDIAN DEMON | BL ✔

CHAPTER 29

"What?" Devyn asked of his secretary, his eyes widening. "When did this report come in?"

"The report came in just a few minutes ago," Astrid answered.

"Heaven has been breached? In Ithyos?"

"Yes, sir."

"That's Castyr's home," Devyn said as he grew worried for the small star.

Castyr? Who's Castyr? Astrid kept silent as she contemplated who 'Castyr' was and his role in her boss's life.

"Thank you for the update, Astrid," Devyn said as he went back to his work.

Taking that as her cue to leave, Astrid bowed and exited the office. Why does he want me to update him on Heaven's news? Oh well, that's above my pay grade. I don't want to get involved with angels and demons and stuff like that.

Devyn stopped his work once Astrid had left his office and returned to mulling over the news of Castyr's home being invaded by demons from Hades. No news has broken about whether Castyr has gone missing or was taken, so let's pray he is safe.

A knock on the door interrupted the CEO from returning to his work. Devyn looked up to see Astrid enter followed by a pink-haired male with a small face and shy demeanor. Devyn stood from his chair and walked around to the set of chairs arranged in a u-formation and greeted the man, "You must be Dr. Byeong-Ho."

The physician smiled and bowed in greeting before shaking Devyn's hand. "Nice to meet you, Mr. Vaumyr. I will be your personal physician should you require medical assistance."

"Thank you for accepting this position," Devyn said as he gestured for the man to sit. Once the three were seated, Devyn began going over the conditions of the contract, to which Byeong-Ho agreed and finalized with his signature.

Devyn let out a small sigh as he looked out the window of his office. It had been a month since his return to Daedoeshi, Earth, as CEO of Vaumyr and Co. Denzyl had taken up the role as the young CEO's personal bodyguard and hardly left Devyn's side...which Devyn could not say he did not like.

Denzyl was reading a book on a couch in Devyn's office while the CEO had been looking at a screen all day. The human's neck was sore, so he decide to take a break. Unlike his plan, Devyn's break somehow turned into the human just watching Denzyl read. His "break" was interrupted, however, when Astrid called Devyn's screen.

"Mr. Vaumyr, Wil Kossen is here to see you," Astrid informed through the screen. Devyn's heart dropped as he heard those two words. Denzyl's advanced hearing caught the name 'Wil' as soon as it was spoken. The demon promptly set down the book and went to stand behind Devyn.

"Thank you, Astrid." Devyn kept himself steady as he end the call.

"Is it him?" Denzyl asked in a growl.

Devyn nodded and stood to his feet. "Took him a month, but he's here." Placing his hands in his pant pockets, Devyn walked in front of the desk and leaned against it. Denzyl stood next to the human as the door to the office was opened. The CEO looked up to see Wil waltz into the room wearing his usual, piercing gaze. Wil had not aged a day in the five decades; he had an ample supply of brune, the anti-age drug. I wish he would do the universe a favor and overdose. Devyn's gaze became distant as he watched Wil walk up to him.

"Devyn, it's good to see you. You finally decided to return from your...trip." Wil greeted as his eyes trailed up to the demon standing beside the young CEO protectively. "You didn't tell me you got a bodyguard."
