Back with Filius...

A few minutes passed after Ninya had resworn her loyalty in front of everybody to Filius, now she and Tuare were on the sofa holding hands and talking to each other while the rest of Swords of Darkness watched with happy smiles. 

Solution, Sebas, and Filius also watched but they chose to let things calm down a bit before continuing their conversation. 

"Sebas", Filius called for the head butler, the butler leaned in ready to obey any order his young master requested, "I will speak with my Father later about allocating Tuare to Nazarick, so for the meantime you and the Swords of Darkness will remain here. They will likely come for her, and when they do, capture two and obtain information about their plans. Once you've obtained everything, give them to Demiurge for the farm. Then we organize a counter-strike and take them all down."

Sebas bowed, "Understood Young Master Filius."

"Are the next visitors close?", Filius asked. 

"They should be coming within the next twenty minutes", the head butler responded. 

"Good, then we just have to be patient and wait", Filius replied, he had sown the seeds of discord in Gazef. He and his father made an alias to blend in with the locals and make themselves an important part of the community. Nazarick obtained followers and new servants, they domesticated monsters and powerful beasts. They made connections with powerful people and spied on the corrupt and evil ones, they'd use that information against them. 

And now that Gazef was turning, they had three figureheads that...

Filius realized, he still needed to overhear Demiurge's report on the second figurehead. 

"Sebas, call for Demiurge, tell him I wish to speak with him", Filius ordered. 

"Understood Young Master Filius", Sebas said with a bow. 

The head butler went to the side of the room and cast a message spell. When the spell was answered a low chuckle created him, "Hehe, What a surprise, Sebas, what can I do for you?"

Sebas and Demiurge were two different sides of the coin, one was evil and heartless to strangers while the other was good and neutral to other creatures in the New World. If they weren't aligned by the Supreme Beings and the Great Tomb of Nazarick they would have battled each other to the death. 

The two didn't always agree on things and they sometimes have arguments here and there. But even with that, they still trusted each other. They were servants of the Great Tomb of Nazarick, and creations of the Supreme Beings first and foremost, they were created to serve, and it brought the most joy when they served their masters well.

This was exactly the situation with Demiurge and Sebas, they could dislike each other but they would never betray the Supreme Beings. They would rather kill themselves than ever have ideas like that. 

"Demiurge, Master Filius has requested your audience, we are still located in the mansion in E-Rantel", Sebas stated. 

"Understood, I will be there right away", Demiurge replied before Sebas dispelled the message spell. 

"Peter, Ninya, Dyne, Lukrut, and Tuare, you five are dismissed. I assume you want to spend some time together and bond, so go enjoy your time", Filius proposed to them. 

"Yes. That would be perfect", Peter replied. 

Filius nodded at the group signaling that they were permitted to leave. The group of humans all stood up before they gave him a bow, "Thank you, Young Master!", they all thanked him.
