Chapter 203

With an ever-widening grin, Mr. Demiand then said, "You think you've got me cornered? Don't make me laugh. If I wanted to, I could have killed Charlotte and taken the Grimoire from you. So what do you say? Are you still determined to ask me to let Charlotte go first? Or are you willing to give up the two Grimoires first?"

"You laugh and laugh and laugh until it makes me sick. You must think that your position is superior to ours. Let me tell you, Demiand, even if you get the Grimoire you want and kill yourself. You still won't make it out of this place alive. My troops will finish you off, and if necessary, I will destroy this building as well," William said with a face that clearly showed his anger.

In the midst of the stagnant situation, a shot rang out from a Jaeger Company soldier. The shot hit Mr. Demiand right in the left chest, causing him to immediately fall down covered in blood. The incident shocked all of his subordinates. They were petrified for a moment, unable to react.
